    An amazing menu with great beers in an intimate setting….I I wish had an extra $120 and hadn’t made plans for NYE!

    Looks like a damn good meal. We stopped by for the Sunday night dinner a couple weeks back and it was delicious. Too bad I have other plans that night.

    I’ve never had a bad meal at Barley John’s. I’ve said it before, but I believe that among the local brewpubs, they have the best food.

    Better than the chili fries at Town Hall?!

    I’m gonna have to agree that they have the best food of any of the brewpubs. I’d put Fitgers up there at #2 over Town Hall in #3.

    Yeah, it’s not so much that anyone’s food isn’t good (or even great) – I’ve just been thoroughly impressed with John’s menu.

    Very true. I can find something I like at all of them but finding something I love or something a bit outta the ordinary (like ostrich steak or something a little exotic) I make the journey to Barley John’s.

    so is the salmon grilled organically or raised in this manner?


  9. ryan wrote on December 28th, 2007 at 10:06 am:

    The stainless steel in their grill is free-range and contains no hormones.

    I would guess that the salmon is organically raised. As our their salads and lots of the other stuff they make.
