Really good espresso drinks (we got a mocha) with a local small business vibe. Breakfast burrito was tasty, especially with hot sauce! There was a steady stream of people ordering to go and plenty of tables to sit and work with guest wifi.

Amazing food! Amazing service! Definitely going to plan many trips back. Also such a great location - near the pub and bookstore! Highly recommend!

My meh review applies only to breakfast, where the food is not freshly cooked, but premade and warmed up. I do not blame them, but it was disappointing. If I had not been so hungry I would have gone somewhere else.

We had a great experience and our server made sure our characterie board was well stocked
Such a local staple now! I love coming here for coffee or dinner with my husband and toddler daughter. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, the food is AMAZING - the mushroom toast is my obsession. The drinks are fun, and lots of NA options if that's more your thing :) Can see myself coming here with friends and family over and over again, would be proud to bring out of town visitors here.

We have always been fans of The Drumlin, but had not been there since they transformed the menu and cocktail offerings. Wow! Everything was excellent and the presentation was superb. Loved the rich chile verde with cornbread, creamy risotto with shaved spring asparagus, and a fresh caesar with anchovies. Drink list is creative with nice range for different moods. This visit moved Drumlin from a cool neighborhood joint for a drink and maybe a small bite to a top tier option for a local date night or dinner with friends.

Drumlin is a wonderfully unique neighborhood restaurant-bar. Their menu options are eclectic, variable, unique, creative, and accessible. The menu gradually changes based on seasonal availability and creative variance.
The options make it easy to customize based on your hunger and preferences. For a light meal there are lighter, shareable options, soups and salads. For full meal options, these can be combined with more filling entrées and deserts. They also have a nice selection of cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. If you prefer more beer and wine options, some Drumlin items are also available at the adjacent Ridgecrest Public House.

The food, drinks, and service were fantastic! Made for a very cute date night, but the prices were pretty high so unfortunately we won't be able to go regularly. Not unfair prices for the quality that was offered, but I'd love to see more affordable menu options or happy hour drinks so we could go out to our neighborhood restaurant more. It seemed a bit empty compared to next door which was packed, I want to see Drumlin succeed so my constructive criticism is that I think you'd get a lot more customers with some lower cost menu items. I wish I had the budget to try them all, because what I did get was sooo fantastic, and the portion size was generous enough that I was able to have it for lunch the next day too!

I keep an eye out for new places where I can get a cup of coffee and do a little writing. The other day, I saw a post about Drumlin adding morning coffee to their offerings. I added it to my list of places to try. This morning, it was at the top of the list, so I packed up my computer and headed out. It was a sunny morning and I enjoyed the short car trip. When I got there, I was happy to see that there was plenty of parking.
The dining area is divided into a section of tables by the window, that would be nice places to eat. Next to that are a few tables that would work for couples or a small group to enjoy a drink and chat. There is a stage that has been taken over by a few couches. I took a spot there since that was the only place where I saw an outlet to plum in my computer. There is also a bar in the back that I want to try out (But not at 7 in the morning).
The place was not too full, so the one woman at the counter was able to handle taking orders and making coffee. I ordered the largest latte they had. That turned out to be a 12 ounce double shot. I have a 8 ounce coffee cup at home that was my great grandfather's. I bring it out so we can joke about how much bigger coffee cups are these days. The cup I was offered seemed like a bit of a throwback. The latte made up for the size by being very tasty.
While I worked, a few more people showed up, making the place feel like a nice neighborhood hang out. The people with laptops must have bigger batteries than mine. When I come back, I'll get here early to get a spot by the outlet.

I never experienced Drumlin 1.0, but I definitely like what 2.0 is going for. It is a more local and low-key restaurant/bar, with a more elevated and unique selection of food and drinks. A great addition to the neighborhood. Check them out and give them some more business!

This place is exactly what you want and more from a neighborhood restaurant! Everyone there is so kind and attentive but it also feels like you are in a friendly and warm atmosphere. The food is delicious and the charcuterie board is great. They have a great cocktail list which they have made some fun spins on the classics. Highly recommend if you are craving a local spot that is cozy with tasty food and drinks.

What a wonderful foodie find! We didn't know this was a 2.0 version of the original but what is going on now with their food and drinks is GREAT. We were there on a Thurs eve, it was 3/4 full and even that + ambient music was still not loud. We shared two main dishes that were both delicious and innovative. The two cocktails my dining companion had were fresh and innovate. Well worth this neighborhood stop!
The Drumlin is exactly what you want in a neighborhood spot - good vibes, incredible food, and cocktails that actually make you pause to admire them before you take a sip.
We started with their whipped cheese toast with shaved manchego, black garlic, and balsamic. Sounds simple, but it was packed with rich, complex flavor and had that perfect balance of creamy, crunchy, sweet, and savory. Honestly could’ve eaten another plate.
The drinks are where The Drumlin really flexes its creativity. The cocktail with the gold sugar rim andb speciality ice cube with sparkles was a standout - beautifully presented and even better tasting. They clearly care about both the craft and the experience for their customers.
The interior is cozy but stylish, with warm wood finishes and a bar that’s stacked with everything under the sun. The bartender was super knowledgeable and friendly without being overbearing.
Can’t wait to come back and try more off the menu. This place is an absolute win for the neighborhood.

Drumlin 2.0 is finally here and it's worth the wait! They've returned with an elevated menu, stellar cocktails and a warm ambiance. Some standouts were the Risotto and the Sun Salutation cocktail.
We love the adult friendly vibe and can't wait to visit again!
