    Food and service were excellent as always. Our party had the filet mignon, burgers, brussels sprouts, Montecristo, and the chili garlic nuts are absolutely delicious. Pleasant ambience, friendly service and delicious cocktails. Get the chocolate old-fashioned—it is absolutely fantastic.

    I was part of a party of 6 last night and they sat us directly in front of two musicians. It was very hard to hear the people at my table talk. I wished they would have sat us somewhere else. Otherwise food and service was great

    This is truly a hidden gem in Chester County. The aesthetic is an old barn, complete with stone walls and wooden ceiling beams. They distill their own gin and bourbon and the drink menu is truly unique and tasty. And you get a pretty large bourbon drink for the price! The menu is on the limited side, but everything we've tried is great. One of the best burgers you'll ever have, and the pork tacos are another go-to staple. I highly recommend reservations Friday/Saturday to ensure you'll get a seat. Note they do have live music Friday and Sat, so be aware if you're seated in the bar area. It's on the small side, so the noise level will be louder. I would 100% give this a try if you are on the fence.

    Our go to spot! Love the food, drinks and staff. Built a nice gazebo outside but should have included a patio. Tables on grass are a bit unsteady.
