    House chips
    Tom R.

    So it's high time I leave a review for Old Town Draft House. I've been here numerous times and I'm only writing my first review now. Such an amazing spot. Jill and Kayne, who previously created KAU at Revolution Mill before selling it to Pepper Moon, also own Old Town Draft House and Boulder's Bar and Grill. Each and every one is amazing in its own way. Old Town has been one of the longest standing establishments, and it puts out incredible food! Burgers, wraps, apps, salads, wings, sandwiches, Philly's, even a burrito... you name it. Pretty much everything that comes out of this kitchen is a hit. Today I had the chicken Philly. Yep, the best chicken Philly I've had in a very long time. The classic soft Philly hoagie, chicken that's tender and juicy, peppers and onions full of flavor with the perfect consistency (not too limp, not too raw), all topped with oozing cheese that they're not shy with. I'm salivating just thinking about it as I write this...may have to go get another one tomorrow lol. The housemade chips and dip were perfect with it. Great craft beers, local options, and everything in between round out a perfect pub in the heart of UNCG. This one is definitely in the rotation. No matter what owner couple Jill and Kayne do, they do it amazingly well.

    So many options here! I had the chicken Philly and it was seasoned so well! It's in the UNCG area. Got a house salad as well and it was fresh.

    Old Town Draught house has the best chicken Philly on the planet. I don't say this lightly, but it's is by far the best, possibly my favorite sandwich of all time. I've been getting the chicken Philly from here since around 2008, it hasn't changed and it's the tastiest sandwich. Their combo of chicken, peppers, onions, and spices with the sauce to light up your taste buds, the garlic aioli and Swiss cheese tie this sandwich together with possible the best savory taste you've ever had. My wife and and always come together and each get one, one of us gets hot chips and the other a salad. The salad makes us feel better about the indulgence of this amazing Philly. I'm sure the other food is good, if not great, plenty of friends I take ther get other items, I just won't do it. I know there ownership has maybe changed hands back and forth, I'm glad they've always kept this staple on the menu, it's the best and they know it. It's bar service, the bartenders are always awesome, quick to serve and can make great cocktails or pour you a solid pint. This is a bar, so the ambiance is bar, don't expect full service or a place for kids to run around, it's a bar. Definitely feels more like local watering hole than fancy.

    Chicken Philly with chips. Love this sandwich.

    When you find something you love you stick with it. While I know there is lots of great food at this local gem, my husband and I just can't bring ourselves to order anything besides the Chicken Philly. It is my favorite sandwich in Greensboro and I crave it about every week or so. We are at the point where we walk in and the waitstaff knows our order (I've always wanted to be that kind of regular!) I tell everyone to get it. They have other Philly's as well, but the chicken is the best one. I also recommend the house chips. I personally love the floppy chips and some normally get mixed in. Also, I am not a ranch fan typically, but their's is very good. It goes great with the chips and this amazing sandwich, the perfect bar meal in my opinion. While best right out of the kitchen, this Philly still tastes delish when you get it to-go and enjoy in the comfort of your own home. There is so much that makes this sandwich great. First, the bread used for the sub roll is so soft, then you got a generous serving of hot, juicy, well seasoned marinated grilled chicken, lots of sautéed bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, Swiss cheese with great cheese pull, and the best part is their garlic aioli. The more aioli the better, it has great flavor and softens the sandwhich which just helps blend everything together for that perfect bite. I just enjoyed one before writing this review and I'll be ready for another soon enough. If you haven't gotten the Chicken Philly at Old Town, trust me and do it, you likely will never order anything different again.

    Cheese melt w/ homemade chips

    Service and ambiance was great. Cool place to hang out! It's all bar service so you order at the bar. The food was good. We ordered a cheese melt w/ homemade chips and Grilled chicken and bacon wrap w/ homemade chips. What I didn't like is the bacon bits out of a jar from the grocery shelf. The homemade chips are great

    Right in the heart of UNCG campus, this lovely little bar and grill was serving retro vibes and delicious eats. I had the loaded brisket tots. Amazing flavors! Brisket was delicious. My friend had the Philly and she said it's one of the best she's had. Even the kids chicken tenders looked incredible. The bartenders were our servers, so it was a go to the bar and order/pay service style. Not sure if that's always the case but they were very fast so it wasn't an issue. Cool spot to check out!

    I have been going to UNCG for 3 years now and haven't stepped foot in here, which is odd considering it is right on Spring Garden Street. I figured I'd go with some friends and try something new. It was weird for me at first because I have never been to a bar, and there was no hostess you seat yourself and get the menus from the bartender. It is typical bar food, burgers, wings, sandwiches, fries, etc. It was also weird for me to go to the bartender to order my food and then go back to my table, but it was just a new experience for me!! The food was very good, The burger was juicy and the pasta salad had a nice pesto flavor. It was loud in here as you would expect a bar to be, but I liked the low lighting. Overall, I would come back now that I know how things work.

    Chicken Philly with hot chips

    Ah Old Town. The number of times I sauntered up to this bar back in the day while working at UNCG is more than I could count, whether that was at lunch for a tasty sandwich, or a post work cold one... this place got plenty of my patronage, though it all took place before I started Yelping things, and somehow, that left me having never reviewed it! Well, time to change that, as my sister and brother in law invited us out there for what they say is the best chicken philly in all of Greensboro. I am sure I ate my fair share of chicken phillys here in the day (though not as often as the meatloaf sandwich), but after leaving UNCG for other pastures, I just didn't find myself coming back here due to fatigue and lack of convenience. Though ownership has changed hands, the menu and many recipes remain mostly the same. The meatloaf sandwich is now just an occasional special which I'll have to come for some other time. It was a slow summer day at OT, so the bartenders did come out from behind the bar to take orders and occasionally refill drinks (usually you order at the bar and walk up for your own fills). Every one of us got chicken phillys, I got mine with hot chips and ranch. Well I'll be... it really is the best chicken philly in town! It was like awakening from a long slumber. I hadn't set foot in there in over a decade, but instantly the flavors helped me recall why I used to go so often. Chicken chunks were plentiful and juicy. Onions and peppers cooked down just right. Cheese melted over the top, and the aioli really just ties it all together nicely. This is a chicken philly perfected. The hot chips were also perfectly golden, crispy, and excellent ranch. Now that I recall why I enjoyed it so, i'll be back soon for another!

    Holy moly, this place is phenomenal! It's has been around on the UNCG campus for almost 30 years and I can see why. The environment is very welcoming and comfortable and the staff is amazing! It has a huge bar that wraps around and has about 8 tables I think - to order, you go up to the bar! I like the way the service flows. They have an incredible domestic and craft beer selection, both on draft and bottles. We had the Wicked Weed Golden Angel sour which was great. Now for the main event - THE FOOD. Wow. I had the chicken Philly which was truly remarkable. The fries were so good. My dad got the patty melt which he said was the best he has ever had - and he's had a few Highly recommend!!!

    I'm always going with the Quban with extra pickles and mustard! Pasta salad is also a must! a lil malt vinegar at the house 10/01/2023
    Ivy S.

    A favorite spot for me when I'm craving great brews, amazing food, and great customer service! I usually get the Q-Bano or Cuban sandwich. Pulled pork, ham, deli mustard (for me), cheese, and some bbq sauce! Amazing!!! And adding the pasta salad, as a side, yuuppppppp, MONEY MAKER! I always ask for the malt vinegar. 3 good dashes to the pasta salad and it's LITTTTayay!!! Pernicious beer on tap, good vibes, an updated patio, LET'S GOoooooooOoo!! I'm a regular even though I don't check in every time.

    Chicken Tenders
    Megan G.

    One of my favorite places to go for a chicken Philly. You will not be disappointed! 10/10. They also have really great specials so make sure you check the board. It is bar service here so make your choice and then go let the bartender know. You can watch the chefs cook through the little kitchen window. Highly recommend coming for a great sandwich and a $2 PBR!

    I love this place. I consider it to be a gem, and it's perfect how it is. Old Town goes back since the late 90s, with a bit of history in the local pub and brew scene. It's a local institution--a heavyweight. The service is amazing. Shoutout to David, Rita, Summer, and the rest of the crew who delivers every time. Their burgers are solid, sandwiches are exceptional, fries are hot, and they can pour a good beer. Their blue cheese dressing actually has blue cheese in it and pairs well with their wings. My favorite beers, a Guinness and Harp! Cheesesteak sandwiches are amazing, and the Quban is a delightful. This place is just too good, and I love all the great memories here.

    Brisket grilled cheese
    Stephanie J.

    Bourbon Bee, bourbon sí!! This drink alone is worth 5 stars. We came in on a Wednesday evening around 6pm and were able to have a seat at the bar with no wait. We came at the right time because the Hurricanes game was about to start so it did get crowded fairly quickly. The bartenders were very attentive even with the large crowd. I wouldn't give it five stars for a couple of reasons. The bacon was left off the chicken club. The brisket grilled cheese did not have bbq sauce on it and when I asked for a side of it I was charged for it. Also, the parking situation is a bit hectic and we had to drive around a few times before finding a spot since most spaces are reserved for the restaurant next door. Realizing those issues are minor and the food was fixed once we brought attention the mistakes, I would absolutely return to this establishment. The food is fantastic and drinks are well crafted.

I had the French toast platter with the fried chicken. The French toast was pretty good but the bread used was pretty flat but it was tasty and the chicken was overcooked, there was some black spots from being fried too long. The hit at our table was the cheesy grits, very cheesy and flavorful. We'd definitely go back to try other things on the very extensive menu!!

This really is one of my favorite places to get food in the area BUT the only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because anytime I've been there remotely close to closing, they definitely let you know & make you feel rushed. I'm not one to go to restaurants last minute when they're closing because I know how that can make it difficult for employees, but being somewhere 45 minutes before they close shouldn't warrant getting rushed. I've been there before just to have a few cocktails at the bar about 45 min before closing & had the same experience. I still really love this place & will keep going (but probably not within an hour or so of closing lol)

We also split the butter cake for dessert and I will say that Paula Dean would have been proud of that cake.

The restaurant as a whole was well set up, with multiple types of seating and a large bar area. Decor was well placed and there was enough room to walk through without feeling crowded, despite how busy it was. We will absolutely be back!
