“My husband took me to Cotton last night for my birthday. The owner was at the host stand and she was extremely friendly and welcoming. Our server scooter was an absolute sweetheart. She was just the right amount of attentive. Shrimp appetizer was so delicious and our steaks had so much flavor and were cooked to perfection(med-rare) cocktails were great too! Between the amazing meals we had an excellent service I cannot wait to come back here. Thank you so much for such a great birthday experience!“

“A*. Would definitely recommend“

“I organized a football team event for 50 held at the Boneyard (their function place), and everything could not have been more perfect. We upgraded to include the ribs which was such a good idea. The reports from the team were all positive, it blew away the Italian meal from the prior year. There was plenty of leftover food which the athletes were so excited to take home. 5 stars. Highly recommend!“

“Not your ordinary food or beverage place. Stash Box was Outstanding! I like to get food choices that I could not make at home and this place definitely delivered. The cocktails were delicious and made with precision and freshness. The food was so tasty. We shared the pork belly Rangoon and dinner bread appetizers. It was the special touches added, like house made pickles and pimento spread and some wicked tasty chutney that made our taste buds explode. I had the falafel entree with broccolini (roasted to perfection) and super tasty. My husband had the pesto risotto, which was a special surprise. Of most importance, all the staff were attentive and friendly. I cannot recommend Stash Box more highly!“

“The Hop Knot is a place that makes me feel welcome and also safe. The staff are worth their weight in gold and are a big part of why I love it there. The food is great (omg, the kielbasa knot dog...) and the drinks are flowing!“

“This place is amazing! I love the remodel- old-timey vibe with a laid-back feel. Drinks were so imaginative and complex. I appreciated the food too-I'm going to try and recreate the Mahummara dip (if I'm spelling it right). Considerate server. I really can't recommend it enough. I've been twice and had a great experience both times.

Vegetarian options: There were vegan and vegetarian options.“

“Excellent food, staff and atmosphere.“
