The interior is not at all my vibe--I'm not a fan of seeing skeletons when I'm eating or having all the blinds drawn so it's dark at midday--but the staff was very friendly, and my salad was excellent. Loads of fresh berries, and the shaved steak was perfectly cooked. When my friend cautiously told the person working the counter that the grilled chicken on her salad tasted a little off, the chef also came out and immediately offered to prepare her a whole new plate. They were kind and apologetic, and my friend enjoyed her dish once the issue was resolved. Personally, I probably won't be back. But I can see why Andersons is popular among the locals. If you're looking for fresh, quality fare and a quintessential funky Denton ambiance, put this one on the list. read more

Stopped in here to grab a bite to eat before bar hopping around denton and it did not disappoint. The velvet underground was very sweet and super refreshing after stepping out of the heat. We also really loved the earl grey liquor and were torn between all the choices on the menu. Definitely hard to find places like this that have such unique house liquors that are paired perfectly in cocktails. The poutine was super cozy and the perfect pairing to our drinks as well. We really liked the patio, but it was just a little too warm to sit out there. Would definitely come back to try all their unique house spirits. I only wish we could purchase some of them to take home! read more

We went on a Wednesday evening and it was pretty empty but that was perfectly fine for us, it seemed like they had a good outdoor space for dining as well but we stayed inside, which wasn't huge but not tiny. You order at the bar rather than the table, but we sat right by the front so we actually didn't have to get up to order haha. Everything we had was pretty good, but I would probably try new things next time because none of it was something I felt was a must to try again. We never got a chance to visit while they were in Roanoke, but I wanted to make sure to give them my business because I've heard great things about them! Would like to try again for a happy hour perhaps! read more

Andersons is a great place and an asset to the community. Service is always friendly, though sometimes there is a wait to order at the bar because of the venue's popularity. They host great events throughout the month. Most recently, my friend and I attended a free Drag Bingo event. It was super fun. There is open seating indoors and out. This event is hosted outside, so weather can have an effect on comfort. I do wish their seating options were a bit more comfortable, but I am also recovering from back surgery so I have to be a little more picky about what chairs I choose. The food and drinks are always good. This last time my friend and I shared a chicken quesadilla and steak fries. Both were amazing. They have an artisan cocktail menu that is added to consistently. I have not yet tried one I didn't like and they are always interesting combinations I wouldn't have thought to try on my own. Highly recommend checking out one of their fun events or just going for a bite and an upscale drink at a decent price! read more

This is our first time here, and I have to say it's the cutest and most interesting place! I love the whimsical and welcoming vibe; it has such good energy. We came for a book club meeting, and it's the perfect location for that. They have a wonderful, spacious outdoor area to sit and relax under the trees, which will be lovely in the fall. You order your food at the bar, and the staff here are great. If you have questions, they are happy to help and provide recommendations. The loaded fries were amazing; I loved the cut and the crispiness. I'm a fan of Brussels sprouts, and these were delicious--I might be a bit biased, though! For brunch, I had the pancakes with sausage and eggs. The flavor of the pancakes reminded me of funnel cake, and I liked that they were a bit crispy. Overall, for our first visit, I would say it was a huge success. I will definitely be coming back. Thanks for the great food and vibe! read more

The server was so sweet and explained everything to us. I asked what she would recommend on the flats and she said the fig and could put the hot honey on the side and it was divine !!! Partner ordered Prime rib sandwich and loved it. We're staying away from fries bc we're working out so we got a side salad which was fantastic. And the bill? $27 ! . Plenty of food and had leftovers to bring home. read more

Went to Anderson's for the first time this past Saturday. Great location and a huge yard and outdoor seating. Loved the open welcoming vibe from the staff. We ordered the BBQ burger with fries, loaded fries, and the sheet cake dessert. Everything was delicious! The fries are pretty crunchy like chips which we loved. Dessert was also delicious and tasted homemade which we loved. Near the end of our visit a local punk band was playing which was pretty cool to get a live local band set. Would love to come back and try more of the menu! read more

Friday afternoon- stopped here for lunch. Here is what we liked: * Service was nice and was attentive. * Unique cocktail list with their in house spirits. * The fries. Let's talk about thin cut steak fries. Who thought this up? They should be employee of the month- every month. We had both the poutine and Korean fries. Recommend both. * Dog friendly- big outdoor area and provided water and treats- that's a win. Happy dog, happy wife, means I can enjoy beverages. What could be better: * As a distillery how do you not have a flight? You make several spirits, prefect. Tourists (me) will pay for those to try your stuff outside of a cocktail. * The cauliflower bites were good, just needed something. read more

Great brunch and lunch spot! Had a book club meet up for brunch and they served up a small but good selection of food and drinks. The staff was super friendly! They had a live band playing outside with plenty of fans and open space for the Texas heat, setting the perfect mood. Our friend group even came back later for dinner to watch their drag show. It was a great time and would come back if ever in the area! read more

Great vibes! Nice selection of private label cigars. Owners and Bartenders are very welcoming.

The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. The staff were kind. The outdoor area has 2 cats on staff that the restaurant adopted, which is fantastic in my opinion! Unfortunately, the food got mixed reviews. Our table ordered the loaded nachos (their special), brussel sprouts, hot honey pepperoni flatbread, and pulled pork fries. The person who ordered the flatbread enjoyed it. The fries were "ok" according to the person who ordered them. The brussel sprouts didn't stand out, but they were good. The nachos were so incredibly salty that they were not edible. The majority of the nachos went to the trash. I am not salt sensitive. It might be a great place for drinks, but I think I'll pass on the food next time. read more

I cannot speak to the food as I didn't have a chance to eat, but saw the wings come out of the kitchen, and they looked delicious. Sam, the bartender, was incredibly helpful and made a damn good drink! They use fresh juices and have an entire menu of cocktails to choose from. Love the atmosphere and employees as anyone would feel comfortable here! Can't wait to come back! read more

Met up with a friend for a late night drink and snack. Our usual spot is Eastside but they were insanely packed so decided Anderson's after Yelping their menu. We came at the perfect time!! Big crowd just left so we got to get some one on one time with Mr. Anderson himself!! The fries were big ol' steak fries and we all enjoyed the pork bbq AND poutine. Very well put together. Mr. Anderson def brightened the place up and we enjoyed chatting with him!! Since I'm Korean, he offered some house kimchi to try so next time I'll order the kimchi fries, WHICH I totally will. It was pretty amazing and I'm very picky when it comes to kimchi. Haha! Go check this little gem out, family owned and loved the outside patio!! read more

Good service - order at the bar. Bar staff is ready and happy! Cocktails are fresh! Great Brussels, Pulled Pork, and Chicken Tenders. Play board games while waiting for food and then yard games after eating in the patio area outside. String lights, relaxed porch feel. Cool vibe. We will be back! read more

Stopped in on a rainy Thursday evening to a mostly empty restaurant. Ordered a lot of food and everything came out fast, hot, and with large portions. There was a bit of a mixup with our order and they handled it quickly and generously. A part of me wants to keep this place to myself so it's always easy to get an indoor table at... but it's way too delicious not to share. We will definitely be back! Don't sleep on Andersons! read more

This is the kind of place where you're so drunk that you don't care what the food tastes like. We ordered the poutine fries, crispy chicken sandwich and prime rib sandwich. There is a profile of flavor, I think it's rosemary that is completely overpowering. The fries are cut, thin like chips. Although I ordered ranch on the side for my side salad, it came dressed with way too much dressing. The best part of this place is the music and the bartenders. They were very nice and is why I'm giving this place two stars. They do not have a real bathroom but a porta potty in the back. We will not be back. read more

Well that was a pleasant surprise! Had no expectations when we found this place on Yelp. And it was perfect from start to finish. Greeted by staff--friendly & genuine without being pushy or superficial. Quickly served, one of its owners came over and had a nice friendly chat with us, and our food & drinks were flawless. I had a Pineapple Express and Grilled Chicken sandwich with fries. My husband had a Rum Punch and Prime Rib sandwich with Caesar salad. Zero complaints...can't wait to come back for Saturday brunch and live jazz. read more

The food was great. The beverages were fantastic. The service was amazing. Stopped in for drinks and snacks and they didn't disappoint. The beer my friend had he loved. The lemon drops were on point. The iced tea was great. We had the veggie pizza, poutine fries, and fried cauliflower. While all were delicious the breading on the cauliflower was the star of the show. Apparently they do the chicken with it too... we will have to go back and try it! Deserts are made in house and don't disappoint. The service was fantastic and super helpful. read more

I want this place to succeed and it can -- but needs some help. Went here for Mother's Day thinking it would be less crowded, plus the menu looked great. There was only ONE occupied table and a few people at the bar. Menu is good but execution not so much. We tried Fig Prosciutto Flatbread, Margherita Flatbread, Tuna Flatbread, Fried Cauliflower, Korean Fries and Steak Fries. The flatbreads are pretty good but should be thinner and tuna was old (not edible). Cauliflower was good but too mushy and served with old, dried, white looking carrots. We were told this is because they're closed Monday and Tuesday and don't get fresh produce in until Wednesdays. Same with the fish. My advice, don't serve it if it's not fresh, and definitely don't tell anyone that! Bad tuna served rare is a recipe for . Drinks were innovative but again execution was lacking... just meh. Positive note, fries were amazing. My advice is to go on a Wednesday, order beer or wine and the fries and you'll be good. read more

I visited here for the first time at lunch today. I was promptly greeted and handed a menu. I ordered the vegetarian bean burger. I am not a vegetarian, I love steak. So I don't know if that makes my thoughts on this more important or useless. Anyway........holy smokes. Super delicious. Truly. They had French fries that were super thin, but wide. What an odd sentence. Anyway-those were good. The place was clean. Service was top notch. Food was awesome. I will be back. read more

Anderson's hosted our small (50 person) wedding in March, 2025. The staff was so gracious & accommodating, the owner was there as well & helped bus the tables! It was absolutely the perfect venue for our small (50 person) wedding. We were fortunate that the weather cooperated & we had it outside, but had plans for indoors if it had been poor weather that day. Cannot thank them enough for their kindness, help with planning, and helping to make it the absolute perfect day! read more

I tried Anderson's on a whim after a dog park visit; They were open on Sunday and 5 minutes from my apartment, so I ordered the Prime Rib sandwich to go at the recommendation of one of the bartenders. I loved the decor and general vibe of the restaurant. There was plenty of seating and a very fun outdoor area with comfortable seating and various outdoor games. My favorite aspect of the restaurant was the promotion of local art. They had a nice assortment of painting for sale from local artists. All of the staff was incredibly friendly too! The bartender I spoke with gave a great overview of the menu and had several great recommendations. He stated they make their own whiskey (and I believe vodka, can't remember) on the grounds, so I'll definitely have to come back and try. Dog and cat friendly! My favorite part of the meal was the fries. I love steak fries! Anderson's has a thin cut steak fry, which I have never seen before. The were seasoned perfectly. I would've loved more in the serving itself as it felt rather sparse, especially without the normal thickness of a customary steak fry. I was not a fan of the sand which. It was very difficult to eat since it was not cut in half. The meat was not drained properly, resulting in a soggy bottom bread (I was a five minute drive home and immediately ate it when I got home, so I don't think it being to go was an issue. The sandwich was still piping hot when I got home). I don't know if it was the meat or the cheese, but it had an odd bitter taste to it that was unpleasant. Maybe an Aus jus would've balanced the bitterness more; I've never had a prime rib sandwich without Aus Jus, so that was also odd. It could also be the horseradish spread they placed on the sandwich. But I typically like horseradish, so really not sure what it was. Maybe the meat was slightly burnt? I'm not sure what it was exactly, but It was very unsatisfying. And unfortunately I'm still hungry. At least the meat wasn't fatty. $18.40 for the meal pictured. The ambiance and staff is enough to pull me back in despite the rather disappointing food. Looking forward to trying them again, hopefully with a better food experience. read more

I didn't try the food today but did come by for one of their markets and looked over the wares of the local vendors. After my shopping I'd strolled inside for a beverage. Victor met me at the bar along with several other employees. He made my Maple Old Fashion and it's excellent. Friendly dude, everyone also equally friendly. I just heard his name. Based on this experience and the vibe the place puts off I'll be back. I liked it at the old location but their new home is also pretty kick ass. I wish them much success and I'll come back. read more

We went here last night (July 3). Despite no service -- zero -- they added a 30% gratuity on our meal for four adults. Our adult son placed the order at the bar, brought us water he poured at the self-serve station, and brought us silverware. I ordered the mixed berry salad and it was good. The fig and prosciutto flatbread was a disappointment; the cheese was grainy. I will never go back and I'm very upset at the non-consensual tip at 30%! read more

We showed up around 7 with toddlers. I asked if it was ok to sit outside for so the kids can play and run and we eat something. I realized it was a bar but my friend has suggested to go here because of the wide space outside. We had a long day as a family and just wanted to not cook and get the kids tired. Amazing service. One guy came out and gave us a warning about a drag show and that was nice of him but I didn't realize until I looked up on Facebook what someone had wrote about this location. I am going to share with everyone and I do not mind if Anderson shares it either. We loved the food, we loved the service, and we will be back with our children again even during a drag event or normal day . Our kids don't care and we don't either. They went above to bring the food outside and because I left my card I was able to use tap to pay. It was overall one of the better experiences that I had at a restaurant here in Denton. The kids loved the music coming from inside also! The most offensive thing that happened was the cat that was outside only let us pet him once even after we bestowed gifts of food to him. We will be back. read more
