15 Best Gastropubs near Malvern

“I have been coming to PJW’s in Malvern essentially since it opened, often with long breaks in between visits when I am out of town. But no matter when I roll in, I am remembered and greeted warmly and enthusiastically by everyone on staff there, a-la Norm from “Cheers”! Often flying solo, I mostly sit at the bar, where the fantastic staff takes care of me with phenomenal warmth and humor each and every time. Rachel is the hardest working person whom I have ever beheld in any industry, multitasking flawlessly without ever breaking her smile and composure! Julianna, one of my favorite people encountered anywhere, personifies fun and friendliness, and I once witnessed her handle two separate wedding parties who rolled in without reservations stampede into the bar and all try to order. Served with aplomb; it was remarkable. Alyssa makes college football Saturdays wonderful for alums of far flung schools, and Emma and Shay keep great conversation flowing with the libations. The menu has reduced in size since the days of Covid, but what remains is delicious and dependable. If you are a salmon fan, you are going to love it here, and if you are an aficionado of smash burgers, get your snaps in! Good stuff! Management is great; they care about the patrons and also about the staff. Everyone seems happy and enthused at all times, day or night, and that makes for a special, relaxing, welcoming environment, for a ball game, a burger, or some booze. Great job, all of you!“

“We were looking for a place for lunch and found Cedar Hollow. And are we glad we did! Starting with Nancy our server the experience was top notch. Huge servings done to perfection. Kudos to the pastry chef for blueberry crème brûlée If you are ever within 50 miles it is well worth the trip.“

“On New Year's Day we went to Brick & Brew in Malvern. Been there a few times before. Their Regular Menu food is so good. They had a special for New Year's Day. It was Pork & Sauerkraut with or without Dumplings, mashed potatoes with gravy, String Beans, A Complimentary Glass of Champaign, & for dessert it was a Pumpkin/Cream Cheese Mousse with Cream Cheese topping. It was so fantastic. I ended up taking some home, their portions sizes are large. All the people are so friendly. Can't wait to go back. If you want a nice evening with Good Food & Drinks, This is the place to go. Call to make a reservation. They do get packed.“

“Burgers are perfection! Definitely try a mocktail the flavors are divine. Had a wonderful meal and the staff was so friendly. Will be back again and again“

“Fun environment, nice crowd“

“I visited this pub for the first time today for a late lunch and drink. The cobb salad was so fresh and delicious and large enough to share with my friend! The roast beef sandwich rivals any I’ve had! The bartender, Chris, was the perfect blend of attentive but not a bit pushy or intrusive. I can’t wait to go back there!❤❤“

“I ordered lunch for my family, for take out. One item was loaded potato puffs. They came with a very small drizzle of sour cream and a few small pieces of bacon. most were dry and plain. Very frustrating as this was my husbands only food he ordered and will be eating 😔“

“We had snack wings and adult beverages. Atmosphere was conducive to college football.“

“I vist this establishment on occasion. It is always a pleasure. I usually order their burger with the BBQ sauce. The service is very good. The atmosphere is open and airy. You can have a group or choose a cozy nook. Indoor and outdoor seating. It is so worth traveling the extra miles to order!“

“Eating out is usually a production (and sometimes a disaster) as I'm gluten free and lactose free. To my pleasant surprise, our server Jaime made my experience a dream.
She was so knowledgeable about this, explained everything in detail, was very patient with my questions. Thank you for making my dining experience seamless from start to finish.
If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely return.“

“Great food and drinks! Always consistently good.“

“Amazing staff, they were so friendly and helpful!! Their food was also exquisite! I’ve been 2 times and both time I’ve been absolutely impressed!! Highly recommend! Joanne was darling!!“

“The outside area is great.
The negatives were the waitress was pretty brusk and overall, not very friendly. Also, when asked about a kids menu for my son, and was told there wasn't really much of one, but then it appears there was one on their website with lots of items. That said items were dropped off by staff efficiently.
Food was ok, the buffalo shrimp were maybe the smallest I ever saw served at a restaurant. Flatbread was great!“

“Came here for a team lunch and the reservation process was super easy online. A little on the pricy side, but great food and atmosphere so well worth it. Excellent beer and liquor menu too, so we're going to have to come back for a happy hour soon!“
