Great service and amazing whiskey selection. I got the sausage egg biscuit which was tasty. Great comfort food. Happy I found this place and can’t wait to come back.

This waffle was amazing I'm not the biggest sweets for breakfast person, but this waffle changed my mind. The apple jam spread was to die for, and so was the cream on top. So pleasant and a great twist on a regular breakfast waffle.

I've been to Barrel twice for brunch and once for happy hour. Each time enjoyed myself. For brunch, I've gotten the waffle with a side of eggs and the honey chicken biscuit. Both were good. The chicken biscuit comes with potato chips but the only con is you can't really substitute the chips for anything like the home fries. But let's get to the best part of brunch, the unlimited mimosas! The unlimited option comes with a decanter of orange juice and cranberry juice, as well as a peach syrup. They bring a bottle of champagne on ice and you can make your mimosas how you like, which is my favorite part.They also have an awesome bourbon and whiskey selection. I've been for happy hour too and had a nice time. I love bourbon so it's nice to go somewhere with so many options. The service this past weekend was great and we had a good time. Overall, barrel is a solid choice for brunch and for drinks.

I recently celebrated my birthday at this restaurant, and even though it was a bit crowded, the service was excellent and the food was amazing. I truly believe Barrel is one of the best...
