Bellwether Bar is a cozy restaurant known for its creative and delicious cocktails and highly-rated fries. The menu features options like the peak burger and steak frites. The atmosphere has a retro, French-inspired decor that creates a charming setting, making it a happy place to visit even if it requires a bit of a trek. Customers enjoy the neighborhood vibe and often walk there to avoid parking difficulties. The bar offers a good selection of appetizers and drinks, including an old school cosmopolitan. Cocktails are carefully crafted, and the food is praised for its fresh, unique flavors that reflect the current season. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, and customers order at the bar, which means they may need to reorder drinks or food if they want more. While some report long wait times for food, especially appetizers, the quality of dishes like trout chips and dip, along with the lively atmosphere, keeps many coming back. Prices are on the higher side, with fries costing $8, but the overall experience of great food, drinks, and cozy vibes makes Bellwether Bar a popular choice for those looking for a lively neighborhood spot.
