Foos was good. It came out ok. Service was poor overall. The restaurant was deserted so it was surprising that things didn't come together as they have in the past.

Branch & Barrel is the perfect mix of craft flavors and a laid-back vibe. 🥃 Their cocktails are creative and top-notch, with a great selection of whiskeys and local brews to pair with. The food is just as impressive—elevated comfort dishes that are packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and stylish without feeling pretentious, and the staff makes you feel right at home. Perfect spot for a night out with friends, date night, or just unwinding with a great drink and meal.

We had a reservation at 745pm on Sunday 9/21/2025. We arrived at 754pm. We were refused service. A gentleman approached us and said, "I'm sorry,ladies. The kitchen is closed." He named several other restaurants that are "open later," and recommended we go there. He said they went a long period with no guests, so he decided to close early. We were not contacted in advanced. I'm surprised to see they checked us into our reservation, as if we were served us. That's WILD behavior.

Grilled grouper sandwich was excellent!!! Delightful lunch sitting outside and service was great!

Our service was very attentive and friendly, which always makes for a great experience. The vibe is definitely the Bourbon tasting room feel, and my sister tried bourbon-based berry cocktail delight. We had lunch and everyone had a chance to try something new. The food was on point with flavors and presentation. We recommended these: Grilled Orange-Tamarind Barbecue Lamb Skewers; Grilled Bistro Steak & Fries; and the B&B Cobb. It's exactly what to expect from a gastropub - unique crafted eats with a good vibe. Guys - it's a nice retreat to wait while others shop - just sayin.

Restaurant is old and looks like has not been renovated . Food was sub par with meat quality very poor and overall dishes weee not tasty at all . We were a group of 4 and all left the restaurant very dissatisfied . I will likely not return to this place .

Branch & Barrel exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, stylish, and welcoming. The menu offers a perfect balance of creativity and comfort — every dish was thoughtfully crafted and packed with flavor. The [insert standout dish, e.g., bourbon-glazed pork chop or truffle fries] was an absolute highlight.
The drink selection was impressive too — great craft cocktails and a solid bourbon list. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, making the entire experience even better.
Perfect spot for a night out, date, or special occasion. I’ll definitely be coming back — Branch & Barrel is a true gem!

I had high expectations, but maybe we ordered wrong? My wife got the yellow-fin tuna steak special. Couldn't taste the fish through all of the salt... Maybe a good place to get a burger? Steak salad was decent. We probably just didn't order well Took a long time for our server to check on us throughout the meal. Cocktails were tasty though.
