The Briar Reviews
Stopped in for a late lunch on the patio. Was interested in a bitters & soda and the server recommended mixing the rhubarb and cardamom, which was delicious and refreshing. Followed that with the Chix Correa sandwich and a side salad. Wow! Really creative flavors and well-executed. Could tell everything was made from scratch and with high quality ingredients and care. Also the decor was fun and hip, the music top-notch, and the staff kind. I look forward to coming back soon!
My husband picked up a coffee for me called “the holy hand grenade”. First off the name is AWESOME!! Second, it was delicious 🤤 such a wonderful addition to the neighborhood! Thank you Briar!
Love the cozy atmosphere and good eats! A small and expertly executed menu and impressive drink selection. I will be returning.
