Contribute FeedbackBanks and Bourbon offers a mix of experiences, with some diners finding it to be a nice evening out while others were less impressed. The food received mixed reviews, ranging from delicious to just okay, with some standout dishes like the beet salad and Branzino. Service also varied, from excellent to slow and lackluster. The ambiance was described as cozy, but lacking in appeal for some. Overall, the COVID-19 precautions were well received, and the establishment seems to have potential for improvement in consistency across the board.
We were in Philadelphia for the ISTE Live 23 Discover Your Next Conference.Bank Bourbon located in Loews Hotel was across the street from our hotel the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. I ordered the Roasted Amish Half Chicken with fingerling Potatoes, Greens, and Salsa Verde $28 and my husband ordered the Duroc Pork Chop with Wilted Greens, Parsnip Purée, Apricot Jam $34 and Parmesan Rosemary Fries $8.Jennifer our server for dinner was very friendly and attentive. The entrees were a-mazing! My husband's porch chop was cooked to perfection and my half chicken and Verde sauce was delicious.
Proving that because they're in the base of a nice hotel you don't have to work so hard bank and bourbon was incredibly disappointing. When you're entertaining customers and you have to sit for over 20 minutes for your waitress to realize that you'd like a second round it's pretty ridiculous. More importantly this is nothing more than a hotel bar so if you want something good in Philly go to a small business and leave this one to people who are not wanting to leave their hotel.
We stayed at the Loews Philadelphia for a family wedding. Banks and Bourbon is attached. I cannot lie, when given a choice to have a Philadelphia eating experience, we ventured to Reading Terminal almost daily however on the 4th of July, RT was closed so we headed back to our hotel and Banks Bourbon for breakfast. Oatmeal, Belgian waffle with fruit and omelette for our family were all exceptional as was our waitress Jasmine. You just can't train the kindness, joy, attentiveness and overall wonderful personality that Jasmine shared with us. An unexpected surprise dining experience to end our wonderful trip.
An amazing brunch buffet that's reasonably priced with something for everyone!Food: 5/5
