10/25 - There are competing restaurants around, hope Brood & Barley can attract a bit more high end customers with better service & polished/ experienced staff at the bar as well as the table service. I like the restaurant, and willing to pay for it....Read More

Pretty cool whiskey bar with cool cocktails and chilll vibes. They have aot of space and different kinds of tables for different groups. Right next to the four quarter, this may be a classier choice with better service.

Let me start off by saying if this was a Friday, I probably couldn't have walked in. Busy even at 7 p.m. on a random Monday. They have maximized the layout to fit a lot of people. I chose outback since I was eating alone....Read More

I love the cozy, speakeasy type atmosphere and the quirky salt and pepper shakers at each table. Yet somehow, the food is even better. I've had the meatloaf sandwich and the (ever-changing) big stupid burger and they are both exquisite! The cocktails are also mixed...Read More

Eating here was a great experience. Inside is very modern and feels very relaxed. I wasn't a huge fan of the fried banana peppers but everything else was delicious! Definitely will come back. We ordered the crab cake and pork and beans for our entrees.
