“D. Burger and fries at $25 extremely overpriced. Otherwise everything was fine“

“Have you experienced the new Summer menu yet? Maybe you tried this restaurant on a busy Saturday morning and the long wait for a table then is preventing you from exploring the menu now? This month is a perfect time to visit again - many local customers are off from school, or off on vacation. So wait times are short, while the summer first watch menu is awesome. Enjoy! (It’s always a good idea to use the first watch app to check in, just in case everyone else has also decided this is the perfect time to visit)“

“Had the Cheesesteak pizza tavern style which is our go to. We get this quite often and it’s delicious every time. I wish I had a picture but I’ll add next time because I’m sure we’ll have it again shortly“

“The heart of Conshohocken.“

“Amazing“

“I tried Dig Inn for the first time last week and I’m back already and to my surprise the food quality is consistent. Everything is fresh, hot, and doesn’t give that I’ve been sitting out all day vibe. They have an open kitchen concept so your can literally see your food being made. And shout out to Chef AJ; super pleasant, great hospitality and you can tell she knows he stuff.“

“Wanted to thank the wonderful waitress that waited on my daughter and her friends tonight for her Sweet 16. Sadly they forgot to ask her name but my oldest daughter said she was very sweet and all around great!!! They said the food was delicious. I appreciate the great service ❤️ 2/22/25 Wayne location“

“Great food and drinks! Always consistently good.“

“My son's rehearsal dinner was there on 11/6/2025. The food was outstanding, the service was outstanding. Great atmosphere. Definitely recommend Bar Sera!!!“

“We had an evening out At The Table and did the tasting menu. It didn't disappoint. The food was amazing, my favorite was the scallop course. The only negative was a table of 6 near us who kept complaining. They arrived at the same time as us and also had the tasting menu. Our young daughter was more mature than this group of 60+yr olds. When the lamb entree came out they were convinced it wasn't lamb. It was lamb, and it was excellent. The whole idea of the tasting menu is to relax, take your time and have good conversations, entree at about 90mins and done in 2 hours. The waiter and chef were apologetic when they didn't need to be. I feel bad for them and wanted to post a review. Highly recommend the restaurant, awesome for a date night.“

“This was my second visit to Ripplewood Whiskey & Craft, and my first time experiencing their happy hour—and it did not disappoint. The menu had a great variety, and I enjoyed both the drinks and the pork bao buns.

A standout “happy accident” was ordering the pretzel rolls with truffle butter… absolutely amazing. That alone is worth coming back for.

The bartenders were attentive and provided great service throughout our visit. We also tried the deviled eggs, which were just okay for me—the mustard base was a bit too strong for my taste.

Overall, Ripplewood is a lovely spot with a relaxed vibe and nice outdoor seating in the back. It’s a great place for drinks, small bites, and a chill evening out.“

“I made reservations for Harry Potter High Tea in April. They promoted it until mid summer. Had reservation for today June 21st for special Birthday. Ridley House took down all Harry Potter stuff, the restaurant was empty. We were seated in baron area with only one other table. The table tops were really beat up as was a lot of fixtures. High Tea was promoted with 3 tiers of food but what my SIL got was so sparse and a joke for $35. Over priced, underwhelming decor and just horrible! We will not be back! Stingers here we come!!“

TY Rob Rosato.THE BEST!“

“I'm so late with this review, I know this, but I had to let you know what a wonderful job you all did on Superbowl Sunday. Food was great, ambience was chill and lively at the same time, but the service is what really stood out! I sat at the bar, and my bartenders were Monae and Aliyah (spell check), they were so friendly, knowledgeable and attentive! That's not always easy to come by in bar/restaurants these days, but those ladies nailed it! Thank you for a wonderful time!“

“Mrs. Monique provided amazing customer service at Wonder. She was welcoming, professional, and genuinely kind from start to finish. Her positive attitude and attention to customers made the experience stand out, and it’s clear she takes pride in her work. Employees like Mrs. Monique are the reason customers keep coming back she is a true pleasure to the Wonder experience.“

“The whole staff was friendly. The food was awesome. A gentleman who was I believe a supervisor or a manager. Came over after we finished. Thanked me for my service. Chatted with us about the history of mission bbq. He made us feel welcome.“

“Drove by Springfield Ale House a bunch of times before ever going in. We have been there twice in the last few weeks and I could kick myself for waiting so long to go in. Can’t wait to go back. Good selection of beers on tap and some excellent cocktails as well as a great food menu.“

“Do not, I repeat, do not sleep on this place!!! Oh my goodness gracious!! Me and my husband just had dinner here and I can’t say enough great things about the food, drinks, atmosphere, service!! Hubs has the ribeye special and let me tell you, thins thing was the size of his face!! He’s got a large face!! Came with mashed potatoes and fresh steamed green beans, he gave it a 15 out of 10!!
I had the simplest of all things, cheeseburger and fries, don’t judge! This burger was no less than a half pound of juicy, delicious and well cooked beef! Not that frozen patty crap either, FRESH ground beef, made to order and piping hot!!
The drink selection was plentiful and just as yummy!! Vodka cran for me and IPAs for the hubs.
Live music capped off the evening from a very tale talented guy with a guitar.
Add this to your list!! You will not be disappointed!!“
