"It's a Win-Win at The Brick Tavern Inn"
Thanks to an anonymous Quakertown sponsor, Ryan and I were able to dine out tonight, without the expense. We are very grateful and if anyone else would like to sponsor us, shoot us an email at eatingthruquakertown@gmail.com. You can remain anonymous if you would like as well!
Anyhoo, we finally were able to make it out to the Brick Tavern Inn on this fine Tuesday evening, after going on a hiatus for a few weeks. Due to schedule conflicts, we had to miss a week and reschedule for a Tuesday rather than a Thursday, but food is food, and we worked around it!
As we pulled up to the Inn, we noticed the fresh landscape that surrounds the building and is very inviting. Many different types of shrubs and trees line the perimiter of the restaurant and create a very nice atmosphere. The inside of the inn was very fancy as each table was joined by a lone candle at the center of it. Yes, two men in their early 20's eating dinner by candelight. It made for an awkward meal. We were even given cloth napkins (The kind where you have to unfold 10 times and put in your lap because it's the correct "etiquette" way).
We opened up the menu and noticed that if you want an entree, expect to pay at least $25. We chose to each order a sandwich, which comes with fries, and then we ordered an appetizer as well. Ryan ordered a Little Italy Chicken Sandwich which is grilled chicken, garlic, tomatoes, and spinach, toasted with Swiss and Provolone on a hoagie roll (Yes, I just typed exactly what it says on the menu). I ordered the New York Reuben which is corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, 1000 island dressing, grilled on rye. We also ordered an appetizer of chicken wings (half BBQ, half buffalo).
The chicken wings were good, although the buffalo wings were a bit spicy and if you have chapped lips, be careful, as the hot sauce loves to infect the chapped lips even more. However, the Inn provides wet wipes so you can clean your hands thoroughly afterwards. Ryan enjoyed his sandwich, although with the amount of spinach that they put on the sandwich, I thought I was at dinner with PopEye. I enjoyed my reuben, but it was nothing "Earth shattering." The service was good and our waitress was very friendly and came to check up on us many times.
Our only complaints were that it seemed to be a little dark inside the restaurant. With it being candlelight, they dimmed the overhead lights making for a darker atmosphere. The background music was at a good setting so I could still hear Ryan without having to shout for him to repeat himself. We did spot a piano sitting against the wall unattended to, like a little puppy in a pet store. We would have liked to see some live music and see what that piano can do! However, if you visit http://www.thebricktaverninn.com/, you can see live music schedules, upcoming events, photographs, additional menu information and more! We both recommend to check it out sometime as it makes for a nice evening out with the significant other or family and friends!
