    a glass of wine
    Sara R.

    The Prosecco on tap is worth the trip alone. The wings are delicious and they have a great variety of drinks on tap to choose from, and their mixed drinks are incredible. It is absolutely worth it.

    I'm slightly rounding up due to the great time a friend and I had here recently. We met for a drink to hopefully ease our Corona stress, and apparently many others were doing likewise this Thursday night. So much for social distancing. We grabbed the last 2 seats at the bar and were pleasantly surprised, a live band was playing tonight. Full disclosure, it was an oldies band, clarinet and upright bass. But hearing these classics in old school format was actually soothing. My friend had a cocktail made with ginger beer, she liked it and was happy with the size/ strength. I started with their tap hard cider, tasty but a bit sweet. I transitioned to a cherry wine sour, and thoroughly enjoyed. It appears that you can get tastes of a few things before choosing the size you'd like, good to know. As for the tap list, the 20 options were largely from local-ish breweries, most of which I haven't been too. This local focus impressed me and helped get that fourth star. We shared a pepperoni bar pie and it was good. I was informed by one of the very good bartenders that this business is owned by Brothers pizza which is just next door. The space itself is modern and casual, with a second room for private dining. I'd possibly try a happy hour special, but see this more as a place that a novice beer fan like myself can try a few things from breweries I might like to visit. Hopefully when all this pandemic stuff settles down I'll return and try their current sours.

    Great experience for our work happy hour. We enjoyed the outdoor seating with frequent, terrific service. The beer selection is varied for flight samplers and the mixed drinks were well poured. The spinach artichoke dip appetizer was filling within the warm bread bowl and the empanadas were good. I can attest that the crab cake sandwich was also tasty.

    Amen!

    Pre Covid I went to a beer festival sponsored by Blend Bar & Bistro (which I had never heard of) in Mercer County Park. We had a great time & I took note of the place because I wanted to check it out sometime. Well, Covid changed a lot of things, but I FINALLY got to take my daughters to Blend Bar & Bistro for dinner & craft drafts. The place is smaller than I expected & located on Route 33 in Hamilton. They have a tent outside which is not in use at the moment but it looked pretty inviting (except for all of the snow around; certainly no fault of theirs). Upon entering, we were greeted by a very friendly gentleman (owner or manager I don't know but am sorry I didn't ask). Our temps were taken (simple way to unsure patrons aren't sick) & we were escorted to our table. Masks were worn by all & tables distanced. Our waitress, Beth, came over & greeted us taking our drink order. I inquired about a beer my daughter was having & she brought me a sample although I never asked for it. I like that. I ordered the Toscano Panini, which came with steak fries. I was tasty & hot. Several times, Beth came over to check on us as well as the gentlemen I mentioned earlier. The atmosphere here is fabulous & you feel like they are genuinely glad you're here. In fact, we drove quite a way just to check them out & I am glad we did. Synopsis: staff was awesome, beer was awesome, food was good. I would return in a heartbeat. And I hope Beth has a great time in 'my neck of the woods this weekend' as she indicated she was going there!

    Blackened Chicken Sandwich and Crispy Chicken Sandwich

    Food was okay, we got the blackened chicken sandwich which was good but I felt could of been a little better. Also got the crispy chicken sandwich, the chicken was a little too on the crispy side. Drinks were good but overpriced for sure.

Such a unique and large space with seating on both sides (1 side is a coffee bar and the other is the kitchen). Their menu is so unique and they also have a "test kitchen" menu where they'll have creations from the kitchen that they make and if they're popular enough they make the big menu. Such a great concept. Their menu has so many delicious sounding items but I decided since it was my first time to try "staples" which was a sandwich and soup combo. The cheddar broccoli soup was spectacular! The flavor and heartiness won me over. I tried the pear and gouda panini as my 1/2 sandwich which was also quite tasty. Oh and my iced raspberry cheesecake cappuccino was my favorite! Soooooo dreamy. And the customer service was great too. The cashier was super patient with me as I took forever to review the menu and decide on what I wanted. I will definitely be back even though it isn't close to my home which says something. So happy I discovered this place.

They do not know your name or care about your childhood. I picked the Seasonal Stir-Fry, the Chesapeake Crab Stir-Fry. Egg white noodles. Crab with Old Bay seasoning. Bell peppers. Red onions. Scallions. Parsley. Seasoned breadcrumbs. Old Bay sauce. I swapped the grape tomatoes for mushrooms. I also ordered a bottle of Mexican Coke. Cane sugar as God intended. It felt almost rebellious to drink something that tasted like the 20th century. The place was nearly empty when I walked in, but within five minutes it was buzzing. Three line cooks moved like their feet were on fire. A young woman at the front kept the chaos civilized, sliding bags onto shelves and trays into hands with the calm of someone who has seen worse days. She was very good at her job. My order arrived hot enough to make my glasses fog. The crab was all body meat, none of the prized claw, but there was plenty of it. Sometimes quantity has a quality all it's own. The Old Bay gave a mild sting on the tongue and reminded me that flavor is sometimes about memory as much as ingredients. The napkins had a word search, a maze, and a spot-the-difference game on the backs. I did not touch them. I admired the idea though. It was a neat way to keep kids or bored adults occupied without wasting paper on disposable menus, flyers or tray covers. The meal and soda cost just under twenty dollars with tip. That is a little high for noodles and crab from a fast casual joint, but these are the days we are living in. All in all, I left satisfied, and asking for more than that from your lunch is just setting yourself up for disappointment. 4 stars.

    Very yummy & convenient…read more I like being able to take my time to review the options on the computer independently and not feeling rushed to complete the order. Food was really good, very spicy and flavorful!!

The dine-in area was mostly clean, with a few tables with debris left behind that customers failed to clean up after themselves. Oddly, the lights were either off or dimmed extremely low, but the bright sunlight streaming in was more then enough to get by. I do wonder what it is like on overcast days, though? The woman who made my salad certainly wasn't particularly friendly, but she was efficient and prompt. I've seen several complaints that this location is particularly stingy with the the toppings. My Southwest Chipotle Chicken Salad wasn't overflowing with the added ingredients, but I didn't have to hunt for them either. So, all in all, I would probably expect a bit more from a $12 lunch salad, but I was overly disappointed. I went in looking for a salad that would full me up for lunch, and Saladworks provided that; nothing more, nothing less.

I felt like I was in the city with the gorgeous lighting and ambiance. My friend and I went on ladies night, where every Wednesday they have a DJ and 10% off food/drinks at the bar! We started off with 3 different apps, the zucchini fritte, the meat and cheese board for two, and the rice balls. Everything was phenomenal! The rice balls were stuffed with shredded beef instead of ground beef which I liked and the Gorgonzola cheese sauce was tangy and savory. The zucchini fritte was fried to a golden crisp and felt light and satisfying. The meat and cheese board is truly perfect for pairing with some pre-dinner drinks! Neither of us felt like drinking that night so I got the Stella Rose red berry spritz and she got the black berry spritz. These were fruity and sweet and perfect for a night out. Great alcohol free options. For dinner I got the cacio e pepe which came in a huge serving. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and I really liked how creamy and cheesy it was without feeling too heavy. My friend got the eggplant rollatini which was a humongous portion and she devoured it and still had some for leftovers. These were both great meat-free options. For dessert I had the chocolate lava cake which was rich and decadent. Perfect for sharing but mine was all for me! My friend had the creme brûlée which she indulged on without a single bite to spare! Can't forget to mention the impeccable service! Our server Andres was so sweet and took excellent care of us and always checked in with us. I'm so glad I finally checked out Spigola! This is a perfect restaurant for a great meal. Since it is an elevated atmosphere, this makes it extra special for birthdays, anniversaries, date nights, etc. With their big event space in the back, Spigola's is a wonderful spot for showers, rehearsal dinners, parties, even intimate weddings.
