We had a date night with no kids and this place was recommended to us about 30 minutes before hand. Well it was awesome and the waitress was great! Glad her mom's boyfriend told us to go her lol! The kimchi burger and Denver steak was all great, we got a beer and a fireside manhattan for drinks all good! read more

Right behind the Marriott Bonvoy. They have both indoor and outdoor seating available. Came here for a work dinner so the restaurant was closed for this private event. When walking inside, the smell reminded me of an old basement, but it quickly faded. We had live music playing, which set the perfect vibe. The bartenders were quick and super friendly. Enjoyed a variety of appetizers and my favorite was the bread. The crust had a great salty flavor to it. Unfortunately, my entrée was forgotten about so I didn't get my plate of food until most of the party was done eating. However, this server was very apologetic and I just slipped on my mojito. Loved the street corn and the poblano crema on the potatoes. For dessert I had the ice cream sandwich, which was underwhelming. The cookies were too hard, a bit overcooked for my liking. Overall, I did like the variety of their menu and the overall atmosphere of this joint. read more

I am in town for work and I was excited to go to Barrel today. Unfortunately that didn't happen. Not realizing they opened at 5:00, I walked up to the door at 4:55. The staff looked right at me and disappeared into the kitchen, leaving me standing in the cold. Thanks, I guess you didn't need my money tonight. read more

We have come here for drinks and brunch many times- I like their brunch menus because they have lots of options and something for everyone. The drinks are great- and the service is top notch. The staff are friendly and attentive. It's a cute place that's a bit small so reservations are a good idea. read more

Stopped in for dinner while in town visiting family. Staff is friendly. Ambience is fun and casual. Both times we've been there, we've sat at the bar. Our cocktails were great! French onion soup was solid. Tuna was prepared perfectly. Second time around we went with the kale salad and the pork chop. Everything was very good. Definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

A party of 20+ people took over the majority of the storefront. Between the bar and our table, I think there were 3 or 4 tables of 4 available. I have no idea how many people were in the kitchen cooking, but ALL of our meals came out at once. The bar and food menus were eclectic. Many of our group ordered the chicken schnitzel and chicken sandwich. I have never successfully made fried green tomatoes. My fried green tomato BLT was a success. I started with the field green salad with house dressing - win. The kitchen was able to handle our large group. The owner and wait staff were very attentive. read more

Barrel 135 - Fried green tomatoes BLT with fries. - New American Near Me - Williamsport, Pennsylvania

Food was amazing. Sat at bar, tender was super attentive and kind. Overall great vibe. We will be back!

The place was comfortable even on a cold day. Lots of people were there so it was pretty loud, but the food was great and I had a good drink. Our whole group enjoyed the food/drink so I'm not just speaking for myself. Could be cheaper but they had a decent gluten free selection. I can vouch for the separation since I have celiac disease and did not get sick. I would definitely go back! read more

After a Sunday morning walk, we needed a yummy brunch spot and Barrel 135 exceeded our expectations. Our server was absolutely delightful and friendly. She had great recommendations for yummy food on their menu and engaged us every time she walked past. I had cranberry mimosas which were perfectly refreshing, while my husband had a couple of bloody Mary's (one was a custom Dirty Hot Mary which he would do again!). Both of our breakfasts were delish. I had the hummus toast which had just enough of everything, including house made roasted red peppers. He had the BLTE, which was a disaster to eat but OH SO DELICIOUS! The pimento cheese oozed all over his perfect breakfast potatoes. Cute place. Great people. Awesome food. read more

We were driving through Pennsylvania, just looking for a place to stop and found this hidden gem. Me and my wife and my kids have very different taste and food and we were incredibly pleased with how good the food was. The white staff was fantastic general vibe of the place was also very cool. Not what we were expecting in a good way. read more

We were welcomed warmly by a team of women rock stars! These women were fun & engaging, obviously close, & appreciative of each other and their customers. Signature drinks & food highlight this downtown boutique spot. We had the Scotch eggs on special, korean cauliflower, beef skewers, and different drinks: blueberry mint collins without the mint was my favorite! This charming restaurant & bar has an amazing chef who I hear is also a musician (Interrobang? I think I have that right but ask him when you go in to visit!) . We were in town just to see Emily Angell music (spotify, pandora, twitch, instagram, etc)! She was fabulous as always. This location seemed small for music to me, but it actually was amazing. There's art on the wall from a local artistic so this place will definitely get your creative juices flowing and your mouth watering. It's obviously great for women, but it had a really eclectic & beautiful group of customers with a wide range of diversity but that's the beauty of food & art...it can bring everyone together. read more

The food was just terrible and I mean terrible i had to eat there while waiting for my flight back to Colorado and not only was the food trash the service was so slow and sloppy I would have had a much better time at let's say chuckle cheese. read more

My husband and I don't go out for dinner often but when we do this is usually where we end up. We love that they change the menu seasonally so there is always something new to try. The staff is always attentive and eager to give recommendations when you're on the fence about a food item or cocktail. I love that they spotlight local artists inside and they have outdoor dining if that's what you're looking for. read more

Found this little gem tucked behind my hotel. Small and cozy but also bright and airy. Great cocktails. Great service and food. We left after happy hour to find dinner elsewhere only to walk back to this bar. Nothing around compared. Well done all around! read more

Barrel 135 - Bar seating is the way to go. - New American Near Me - Williamsport, Pennsylvania

I was in Williamsport for work and this spot came highly recommended. Although there's a large bar space, don't be fooled - this spot has some awesome high end food!Not your typical gasto pub - this spot has sushi, Korean bbq ribs, duck breast, etc.... not your typical run of the mill bar food (burgers, fries, etc.). The Korean ribs were recommended by the bar tender, so of course I tried them! Sadly, my ribs came out cold, so they weren't as good as they could have been. You could taste the charcoal (yum!) and wonderful seasoning! I'm not a potato person and they may have been the best I've ate in a LONG time. Sooo good! The dish was also served with tempura broccoli and kimchi. I wished the kimchi had a bit more spice, but it paired well with the nicely cooked tempura. I really wish the ribs were hot, or at least warm, kinda stinks that they didn't live up to the sides. My friends tried the salmon that was on special. They had $5 martinis for happy hour! The bartender was helpful, friendly and attentive despite being really busy at the bar. read more

The food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Our server made wonderful recommendations and was super accommodating.

Bartenders are super friendly. It was like hanging with my girls from back home when I sat at the bar. I would pass on the specialty martinis. Too much extra and not enough of the base liquor. The best omelet I've ever had: braised short rib omelet. It is amazing. Now at home I make my quick version using pot roast. The morning potatoes are fantastic as well. I never like them but these I are up. Large mimosas with heavy pours of champagne. read more

This was the closest restaurant to our hotel. We had very low expectations. We sat outside to listen to the live music, which was great. We had a few small plates and a porterhouse to share. The whipped feta had a surprising depth that put a smile on our face. The fried ribs were crispy and flavorful. This is not a steakhouse, yet the double seared porterhouse was steakhouse worthy. What a gem, highly recommend! read more

First time dining at Barrel 135 Came on a sat night from Eagles Mere The food was fresh and amazingly tasty Deviled eggs Spicy and tangy Delicious watermelon salad Red onions and Feta Mussels were fresh with tarragon butter Kelly was a delight We will definetely be back read more

I've only gone for brunch, but dang am I impressed every time. Delicious food, great service and the ambiance was nice as well.

I hosted a dinner for 15 people last Saturday night. All of us from out of town. I chose Barrel 135 after reading the reviews. and it did not disappoint. Besides the innovative menu and great food, Josh + crew were oh so accommodating. I wish that I could remember the name of our server. She was absolutely delightful. She patiently listened to food allergies and random requests for modifications, all while running back & forth to the bar & kitchen. The Baby Back Ribs delicious. The Burger delicious. Beef Lettuce Cups delicious. Barrel Fries delicious. Pulled Pork Sandwich delicious. Fried Chicken Sandwich extra delicious. Literally no complaints. Imagine dinner with 15 family members and everyone's dinner comes out as ordered and no one complains. Right??? I wouldn't believe it either if I wasn't there. read more

I'm in Williamsport a few times for recruiting fun over the next few weeks and staying at the Hampton Inn. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a fantastic restaurant within walking distance of the hotel. It's on the street directly behind the Residence Inn (not in the Residence Inn like I initially thought). The restaurant wasn't packed, but it was busier than expected on a Tuesday night. Big takeaways. The food was super quick and high quality. I had the Brisket Banh Mi with veggies, and luckily, I snagged the last one of the day. Service was on point. I could tell quite a few regulars were sitting at the bar with me as the bartender/server greeted them before they sat down. They kept my water full and my alcohol steady. I'll certainly be a return guest. read more

This place has some great food. I've tried sushi, conventional salad with salmon or chicken on it, and a fab summer salad with watermelon feta cheese and some unusual spices on it. Service is quite good, and friendly - the owner's girlfriend has been my server each time I've visited. The only downside to the place is that acoustically it's pretty loud, and this is VERY unfortunate because Kelly (aforementioned server), while very nice is also quite possibly the loudest human in downtown Willamsport - you are intimately involved in (at least her side of) any conversation going on in the whole place. So I take off one star for the noise factor. If you are hard of hearing this is easily a five star joint :) read more

We've NEVER had a bad meal or even a so-so meal at Barrel 135. Our food is ALWAYS AMAZINGLY GOOD! Tonight, we brought our daughters and SIL for the experience. My SIL NEVER eats even a 1/4 of his entree. Tonight, he ate it all! In record time! Kelly, you are the best server and Josh you are an AMAZING chef! read more

I was in Williamsport for 2 days for work. I stopped here for dinner since it was within walking distance to my hotel and the reviews were solid. So glad I came by! I sat at the bar and had the scallops with a few beers. The food was amazing and my server Kelli was even better! Apparently she was running the bar area while serving tables. Very friendly place with great food I highly recommend to anyone staying downtown. read more

Waited too long to visit this joint. Wow Great place, love the atmosphere and the menu. Even tho I stopped in for lunch, I can't wait to come back to try their signature drinks. The only thing I didn't like was the ice tea. I enjoy simple fresh brew. But I didn't hold it against the review. First dish was pork tacos, AMAZING flavor!! With side of Fry's. Fresh cut and love the mix of a few sweet Potato ones. Second dish was, bbq bacon burger. Again tuns of flavor and heavy. Filling for sure. read more

Fantastic service with high quality food. Great wine menu. We started with the Swedish meatball appetizer which was excellent!! Four meatballs would have made a meal for one. I had the Brisket Banh Mi sandwich which was incredible...Smokey flavor through tender beef with cowboy candy and assume srirachi aioli. Wow! My wife had the scallops which were grilled perfectly. Wish we lived closer but were just passing through. A must stop while in Williamsport area. read more

Better for dinner than brunch. Brunch was recommended for their Bloody Marys, but mine was underwhelming. Food was workmanlike -- but not cuisine like the dinner we enjoyed weeks ago. By that I mean that it was line cook food intended for ease of production not sound chef cuisine that's intentional with respect to the experience. Definitely visit, but lean towards their evening service, at least based on my experience. read more

Great food and service! Unique atmosphere. AFAIK it does not have its own parking lot so we had to find a street spot.

What a pleasant surprise. Found this place after checking into a nearby hotel. Service was friendly and the food was outstanding. Good value for the quality. I would highly recommend giving the Barrel 135 a shot! read more

Always a very unique menu, flavorful food, awesome service, and friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Very clean inside as well.

My husband and I stopped here for dinner while spending the weekend in Williamsport. We were greeted warmly by everyone who worked there which was so nice! I had one of their craft martinis which was amazing! The food was cooked perfectly. If you are looking for great food and drinks with friendly service, this is it! Highly recommend! read more

Fast service, seems pretty busy, would recommend making a reservation just to guarantee you get a seat.

Today was a great business lunch sitting at the bar. That is my preferred dining style. Food was great wonderful more people working here as well. I would definitely return. read more

Went for a fun night out this time last year with a girlfriend. The restaurant was not extremely busy and we both ordered the exact same salad and vodka drinks. We were having a great time barring the lack luster attention of the waiter. We were ready to see the dessert menu and instead were served with the bill. When we asked about dessert the waiter replied that they only had chocolate something or other (I forget the actual name). We couldn't believe there was only one choice on the menu and continued to ask expressing how odd it was that there was only one choice but to no avail. So as we were filling out our check info a waitress walked by our table to the table behind us and started to tell them all about all the desserts they had on the menu that evening. WHAT!!!! You've got to be kidding! We couldn't believe what we were hearing. I tend to overtip as I once waitressed and bartended so I know what a hard job it is. But after we were snubbed by our lazy waiter I quickly slashed my tip to an insulting amount. No matter how good the food was, (although getting drinks was painstakingly slow) I don't care if I ever go back to Barrel again! Bad service always overshadows good food! read more

Great food, awesome service and a short walk from our hotel the City Hall. Highly recommend to anyone coming to the area.

We read rave reviews about Barrel 135's delicious martinis, so we had to try it. And wow! When someone is passionate about their craft, the results are obvious. Their cocktails are made of pure, locally-sourced ingredients and created with love. No artificial mixers here, and you can definitely tell the difference in quality. If you enjoy finely crafted cocktails and friendly staff, Barrel 135 is a must! read more

Fun funky and good food. I should go here more often for brunch on Sundays though. Nice place

First time here, visiting from out of town. My friend had the blugogi tacos. The meat was tender, excellently prepared and they were delicious. Sometime when I see fresh cut fries I tend to think they're not as good as others you can purchase because they're soft and not tasty. These were crispy and well seasoned - very good! I had the beet salad and tempura shrimp mango roll. For not being a Japanese place the sushi was good, light and flavorful. While I like hot sauces, and they only put a small drop on each piece, I felt like the sriracha overwhelmed the sushi a bit. I would order with sriracha on the side bed time. read more

This is the best restaurant I've been to in Central PA. A creative, thoughtful menu, good beer and wine, and excellent service. We each got the pork tacos - which were perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The space is clean, has a good vibe and it's not nearly as grimy as some other so-called gastropubs in the area. Hooray. Keep up the good work. read more
