Went on a Monday night, which is free pool night, and had a good time. We had a variety of apps, such as the bar pie, steamed clams and mozz sticks. All made fresh and delivered hot. Server was spot on and spoke fluent Italian. Who knew....plenty of beers on tap. Also, down the street from the local bowling alley.

I know this place has only been under new ownership a short few months. It is a very rural, local place off the beaten path. Given that, it is full of locals and will be stellar one day. Service is very slow. I think they are still working out the bugs and perhaps need more kitchen help at the least. My huge pet peeve is when someone comes to the area outside of town they always, always tag on an up charge for drinks. Stop it already. We got one grey goose(no, no belvidere)martini up in one of those "new" old cocktail glasses that look like the old champagne flat glasses. Hate them! We got one Ketel WITH tonic, so a mixed drink. There was a $1.00 up charge on both so not the $9.00 on the menu but actually $10.00 each. Not at all worth it. Yes, they are doing a good job on wine pricing but we were not drinking wine. I got the salmon paillard which was on top of greens. A nice amount of salmon but overcooked. Not sure if that was because of the lack of help in the kitchen or a factor in slow service. Hubby got a make your own burger. It looked nicely cooked, he said it was very good. We had one glass of wine for $6. Total bill $67.68 without tip.So you can see there are some newby flaws. I think they want it to be more than just a shot and a beer place. But they need to tighten up a bit. Oh, and no dessert just now but hopefully soon. We will wait a couple of months and try it again. Also, gps has it as Frenchtown even though its Kingwood. Seems to happen alot in that area with gps.Hi Merrywonder,Thank you for the review, and for recognizing the potential in our new establishment. I am not in the habit of responding to online reviews, but I am in the habit of being fully transparent about our pricing and philosophy. I'm not sure exactly what is meant by the comment about an upcharge for an area out of town, but i will try to explain how we (and many other restaurants) price our booze:the charge for an item in the computer is a charge for the item poured neat, or in a highball. For us, it's a 2oz pour (standard pour is 1.5oz). An upcharge is used for drinks when more volume is poured. For example, if you see a charge for "rocks" on a bill, you are not actually getting charged for ice, but for additional spirit. Here we pour 2oz for neat or highball drinks, 2.5oz for "rocks" or "up" drinks, and 3oz for cocktails. Hence the additional charge.Not having seen your bill, i can't comment intelligently, but you should have been charged an additional $1-$2 for the martini (depending on how it was made) and no upcharge for the highball (vodka tonic). If you were, it was our mistake.Please visit us again (we're improving what we do every day and every week), and please ask for me next time you come in. I'd love to say hello.- ben

We visited this place over 25 years ago when they were the first brew pub in New Jersey. We were in the New Hope area and decided to visit again. We were not disappointed. Service was excellent and food was exceptional. I had a salad that was loaded with blue cheese and Brussels sprouts. The local beer choice is varied and we felt sorry to have to limit ourselves to one drink since we were traveling further that day.
