In addition to beer, Pennsylvania craft spirits from Boardroom, Five Saints, and Manatawny are available, as well as wines from Karamoor and Chaddsford.
The pub boasts a full kitchen, located inside a quirky food truck, and the menu features creations from chef Justin Henning.
Small bites include Bavarian soft pretzel, house made corn chips and salsa, deviled eggs, beer fried cheese curds, brussel sprouts, truffle fries, and sea salted fries. I recommend the fried pickles served with chipotle ranch.
Starters include Nacho Average Nachos, wings, hummus, buffalo chicken egg rolls, and a cheese board.
There are also several soups like Tito’s Beef Chili and salads like the Harvest Salad, as well as burgers, a grilled chicken sandwich, and a veggie sandwich. Rich recommends the Boneshaker, which is a sandwich with rosemary and garlic infused pulled pork, provolone cheese, roasted Italian long hots on a kaiser roll.
Dos Tacos (served with tortilla chips and salsa) are available in chicken, steak, and fish. I highly recommend the Fiesta tacos with fajita spiced roasted corn, edamame, bell peppers, black beans, topped with smoked cheddar, avocado, and cilantro.
Entrees include Mahi Mahi, Brewer’s Pie, and Blacked Chicken. If you save enough room, desserts include Apple Pie Bread Pudding, Burn Everything Chocolate Cake, and a Cookie Sundae.
