Excellent service and food. Crab cakes for a starter were delicious and mostly crab ...not alot of filler. Catfish poboy as a wrap was yummy. Chicken and asparagus pasta could be enough for 2 people and was very tasty. They have a very deep list of whiskeys and Scotch if you are so inclined. Great date night dinner!
The short ribs here are absolutely divine!! 10/10 Best thing in the menu Super tender and fall of the bone Also strongly recommend getting the pretzels here 10/10 Super soft and delicious starter! The hummus and bread was mediocre 3/10 Poutine 9/10… can use more gravy The cocktails here are delicious as well but are extremely light Strongly recommend the espresso martini or seasonal pumpkin martini The blackberry martini mocktail is delicious as well! (Can be made strawberry as well) The etuffee is a 5/10 Nothing really special and a bit too salty It is spicy for people that like that Comes with rice and side of bread The lobster Mac and cheese is recommended by many people but felt overrated 6/10 But the cougar Mac & cheese is what’s good
This place is always busy and I understand why. The moment you walk in, you're surrounded by a welcoming atmosphere and smiles all around. Service staff are genuine and knowledgeable about drinks, food, and whatever seasonal specials are running. Food came out fast and was beautifully plated. Didn't get any photos as I was indulging on a delicious skirt steak sandwich for lunch. I highly recommend this spot to everyone unsolicited.
Another great gem made of great people, food, taps, and drinks! Loved the friendly bartender and healthy options! They also had YaYa hazy on tap, so I left full and joyful!
Great waitress & delicious food (I had the dry rub wings, wife had grill cheese and tomato soup). Dog friendly patio. A great place
Yum!!! I ordered the gumbo and it was delicious! What a fun place to try some new fare or just something different than the usual food offered in the area. However, if you prefer the usual food - the burger was huge and amazing too! Birch and Barley is a great place for both adventurous taste buds and those seeking the usual.
Great place if you or your partner has celiac or a gluten intolerance. They have a separate gluten free menu and lots of different options. Waitress was very knowledgeable about their gluten free menu and made sure to let the kitchen know. Reasonably priced for the quality of food and service. Definitely a great place to have a more fancier dinner on the palouse. Will definitely be coming back!
One of our favorite spots in Pullman. Pub food, but slightly elevated. Great crafted cocktails that are created by the staff and rotate seasonally. They have a pretty reasonable bourbon selection as well. Wait staff is super friendly and accommodating. The food mostly has a southern twist, but with local ingredients. Portions are quite large. Atmosphere is spacious and a bit echoey in the dining room. A separate bar area has a couple of tvs with bar seating and high tops as well. Overall a great experience, with yummy food!
