Overall experience was fair. The extreme downside to this restaurant is that they sat us at the door. So every time the door opened we got this extreme blast of extremely cold air. It was very hard to enjoy our food when we were cold. The food was decent. Our server started off strong and then petered out. The restaurant itself has a cool vibe very cozy. The decor is very lodge, cabin, natural, wine cellar vibe.

Good food. Was seated at one of the tables by the door, which was cold but later moved more to the interior. No automatic water reels ☹️. Had to ask.

Our waitress Chloe was AMAZING! The Brussel Sprout appetizer was light and crispy and really good. I had the Maple Salmon and my Father had the Steak/Fries. They were out of the pretzel which was a bummer. I also had the Tropicalia Beer on tap. I will be back again!

Branch and Barrel is always my go to for a casual cozy comfort meal. The Branch Berry cocktail never disappoints (but ours was missing the muddled strawberries, and I’ve had it served with a string of something before so the presentation was lacking) The food was yummy and our waitress was great. My BIG complaint is the massive waves of cold air when the doors open, which was often. It was brutal. In New England they either have a vestibule or a U shaped rod just as you walk in, hung with velvet curtains, to block the wind gusts. The doors are so centered and open to the entire space it was freezing. Still love this place though. I wish there were vegetarian options on the menu (and an Impossible burger swap option on your fantastic burgers) a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich and more hearty soups.
