Went here today for dinner while waiting for the mechanic. It was absolutely delicious. We got the sweet potato hummus that felt both sweet and savory, served with warm pita. We split the hearty and fresh pot roast and the OMT (named after Old Man Tom - who was their oldest employer - still alive at that time) sandwich which also seemed to balance freshness and crunchy texture with sinfully goodness and homemade feels, like an elevated version of what your mom would make you in your lunchbox RE: the (fat slice) of bologna. Squishy bun and the same fry type as McD’s with (3) options of dipping. We opted for the black garlic aioli and good old fashioned ketchup.
Service was lovely; felt humane and attentive without being overbearing. The Fitz’s root beer was low carbonated with high flavor. YUM. Would strongly recommend for a “nicer” meal along your way. It was under a hundo buckeroos including tip for not only a wonderful experience off road, but a meal in a nice establishment you’ll gladly pay for that feels familiar enough with its mom’s cookin’ vibe meets nicer than you’d make yourself along the road (imagine the save in all the clean up).
Beautiful break away from the road while we waited. I’ll never forget THE HUMMUS.

Spectacular meal! The menu changes, and we will be back to sample as often as we can! We were fortunate to be seated next to the table with a farmer that supplies some of the meats. Everything from the atmosphere, service, conversation, and especially the food was grand!

I am so disappointed. The price point and reviews had me excited, but the food was flavorless and came out room temp. The atmosphere here is loud and over stimulating. The wait staff was average. The drinks were good though at least

Met a friend for dinner at the Barred Owl. Love their philosophy of supporting local farmers. I started the evening with the Rhymes with Orange cocktail…a great combo of smokey and just a tiny hint of sweet. After reading other reviews, I decided to go with the shrimp and grits. Yep! That was the right choice! For the price, portions are small. We lucked out and were seated right away on a Saturday night at 7pm. Our server realized we were there to catch up and adjusted his visits accordingly. That was greatly appreciated. The high ceilings do create quite an echo making it difficult to hear at times.

Went there on a first date. Got stood up. Decided to eat alone. Had the lamb porchetta, great seasonal dish.
Went to the bar after I ate. Told my story to what looked like a few regulars. Got a free drink of the most amazing Spanish whisky from the top of the ladder thanks to the most friendly bartender/ maybe part owner. Ended up meeting an amazing woman later on, different story.
I've been to restaurants, I've worked in many. The experience and atmosphere are amazing.

The chef/ soux chef/ line cooks are top tier.

Great experience.

Just had a $10 salad that was literally a plate of dressed lettuce with some battered onion bits on top. Which was frankly insulting.

Otherwise the food is very good. Slightly overpriced and not quite worth what they’re asking - but very good.

The atmosphere is terrible. It’s loud and always too cold - summer or winter. If I’m paying $50 plus per head it shouldn’t feel like a busy truckstop diner that turned the lights down very low. Staff is excellent.

I found this place to be underwhelming. I ordered the blackberry and peach salad which was recommended by the waitreess. The salad is described in the following order fennel, peach, blackberry and lardo. The salad had three micro slices of fennel and was COVERED in lardo. It was a lardo salad with some other stuff. The blackberries were bitter and clearly not fresh. To save the night, I got the scotch egg which was unique and very tasty. I liked the romesco sauce and pickled onions with the fatty scotch egg. My table also ordered the fries which I thought were overcooked and annoyingly small pieces (end of bag?). Wouldn’t return and uncertain about all the hype. Maybe I just ordered wrong.

Breeh! Stop looking further, you ever go to a place and say I don’t usually leave reviews but people need to know what’s up. Just go here, sit at the bar with your girl and make sure Andrew is bartending.

You’re welcome

We stopped in at this old favorite while visiting CoMo. It was the best food I've had in over a year. The rabbit parmesan was the best rabbit I've ever eaten and the maple pork chop was amazing. Highly recommend Barred Owl to anyone.
