    We were seated in an almost empty restaurant, but no-one came by for nearly 10 min. The waitress acted like she really didn’t care about service, and then brought some off- label soft drink instead of Sprite without telling us. The food was okay apart from some green beans that were basically inedible. The waitress continued to act like she really didn’t have any interest, fortunately there was a waiter who was much more helpful. Overall, not an experience to make us want to go back any time soon

    The menu is outstanding. And changes w/the season. Our server was amazing and friendly. Danny, the manager was working alongside everyone. It was great to see a full bar and dining room.

    The Barrel and Crow restaurant consistently exceeds my expectations. It's like being a series regular on "Cheers," everybody knows your name and what you like. It's a place to relax and spend time with friends, including those working there.

    The duck fat fries were amazing, the steak was juicy and tender, and the wings killed.

    Fried green tomato appetizer was wonderful. Breakfast burrito didn’t have much flavor. Salmon burger tasted too much like Old Bay seasoning.
