Great food, better staff, good prices and AWESOME food!! Drinks are really unique too!!
I couldn’t have asked for a better meal and cocktails. This place has all the things…great drinks, amazing food, cool ambience, and a raccoon named Bruce! Let’s get real, this is the place!
Please don’t go here. It will detract from my ability to go to what is arguably the best cocktail bar in the city.
This place is awesome.

The Campground in West Bottoms offers a dark industrial atmosphere for a hunter/gatherer food experience. The menu highlights dishes like coal roasted carrots, green beans, lamb saddle, and smores. The restaurant excels in balancing textures and flavors, honoring both vegetables and meats. The double smash burger is a favorite among diners, and vegetarian options like the cauliflower entree are also highly praised. The cozy and inviting vibe, along with perfectly crafted cocktails such as the outstanding Quivering Forest, make this a must-visit spot. The friendly and knowledgeable staff contribute to a well-focused dining experience that keeps customers coming back for more. Visitors also enjoy the seasonal holiday market in December, which adds to its charm, making it feel casual and familiar with unexpected food and beverages.
