“Very nice little spot tucked away. They serve pizza and other food. I have not tried much of the food yet. I live in smyrna, so it's a hike. They have a huge bar outside by the water. They have live music and a DJ. I will definitely be going back. They only gripe I have was the female bartender being rude to a friend of mine.... other than that, I like the place i definatly need to try the food and get some pictures

Parking: They have valet parking if you pull up to the front there. The valet guy was cool. There are a few parking lots behind the building just drive past the entrance and they are on the right...“

Bellefonte Brewing Co Brandywine Brewery • $$

“Great beer!! Cool building. Unfortunately, the bartender was blatantly cold, rude, and off-putting. Yikes! Made me feel super unwelcome, despite me trying to be very nice and smiley. I even attempted to strike up friendly conversation. I said “thank you” to him about a dozen times and never got a response.. at all. Zilch. Laughably rude. Notably, it was a very slow night, so it wasn't like he was busy.I drove 30 minutes to try this place while in town, and left feeling disappointed and self conscious. Wishing this very cool brewery the best. All they need is better bartending. It’s sad to see a bad-mood employee tarnishing the presentation of their hard work. Very tasty beer for sure!! ? 4 stars because the beer was a top notch!! Worth the trip over here even if the experience overall wasn’t good.“

“Great place to watch March Madness. Had Phillies on, then switched to basketball, then Sixers, Flyers, then basketball. Great job managing multiple games. John Daily 6/10- would have preferred real ice tea vs what appears to be iced tea mix. Bartender/waitress offered to switch out for free. Wings- sweet chili 10:10 On Point. Maybe a few wet naps Draft beer selection- great. Hammerhead 10/10 Nachos- 7/10 wish more pico but overall great with chicken and guacamole Ham/Cheese with cranberry- 4/10 too much ham, too little cheese.. no cranberry. Told out after the fact. Staff needed roller blades- Waitress was bartender… she did a great job! 8/10. We’ll be back“

“(Man, please don't make me regret these 4 Stars.) This li'l spot is exactly what it promises to be: a corner shop with super delicious grub (surprisingly even including fresh salads and things like salmon burger platters) at a price you can't EVEN complain about... Also as expected, tho, there's always some Lunch Special you don't know about until you get there, and there ain't a reliable online menu to be had-- the Crew must be confused by Brown Bag's 5K meal options, too, because they're good for giving you inconsistent info for phone orders (but in a friendly way). Their fries are the ones you really wanted, and I'm a big fan of their cheesesteak platter.For the neighborhood, for the Carvel Bldg, and for Redding, Brown Bag is an awesome standby.“

All I can say is that everything was fantastic! The service, the room, the attention to detail was perfect! The food was phenomenal! The portions were huge and tasted terrific! Madelyn was a wonderful hostess and Rob the best bartender and pancake bar chef! We couldn’t ask for a better day. Picking Chelsea Tavern was the best decision and the bride to be was so happy and said everything was exactly as she had imagined. Thank you to everyone involved, it was the most special day 🌸💗🌸“
