No one mentioned you are not allowed in the store, how can you pick what you want if you can't go inside and look, he blocked the door like we were going to rob the place....I don't know if he did that because it's common practice or because we were people of color. We weren't rude or loud or hoodish at all but it sure felt uncomfortable especially with my young daughters there, we ended up leaving and not getting anything and we won't be back.

Unfortunatly, this time, my thin crust cheese pizza was not as I expected. The main problem was that they scrimped on the cheese! It tasted good but come on! No toppings, except mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce, and they couldn't cover the crust? I also tried their chicken wings. They were a bit greasy and the blue cheese dressing lacked flavor. I previously ordered their eggplant parmesan sub and it was great. I like the staff, service is quick and the vibe is good as long as you like sports TV playing in the background. Oh, and the walls are filled with Italian movie posters, which is a unique and authentic touch. I will go back because the prices are less than the surrounding places. Maybe next time, I should request "extra cheese!"

The onions weren't really sautéed as much as I like either. The beans and mac were unfortunately some of the most flavorless sides I've had in a long time. The beans almost had a sour taste. If you are used to Bush's Baked Beans these aren't it for you. Tenders were ok and thank goodness the tots were right. Other than that I'll probably continue my search for a good local hot dog joint.

They picked a perfect spot in Bristol Borough that they seemed to have partnered with Naked Brewing on. If you have kids the downstairs area is ok, but with live music I had to take my son upstairs to preserve our hearing! We found parking in the large municipal lot behind the building. Upstairs we found cozier seating at a high top table with service. Downstairs I believe you have to walk up to the bar or just sit at the bar for service. I also don't believe the full beer menu is available downstairs. The menu is full of tempting toppings and styles with your choice of regular/footlong dogs, hot sausage or kielbasa. I had a hot sausage with pepper hash and coleslaw. It had a snappy skin, decent heat and was delicious when paired with the sweet coleslaw and pepper hash. My friend ordered frank and tots and reported it to be delicious and filling. My son had a regular dog and we all shared a big pretzel with beer cheese. I had an IPA named Thank Frank that was about average for a West Coast style IPA and my pal had a couple of their darker offerings that he wasn't impressed with. Our server was nice and gave a great recommendation to add the pepper hash. She wasn't the fastest at coming to check on our beers so we bailed. I had one and she never asked if I wanted another and never refilled our waters. Prices weren't too bad. I would definitely return for some more of the interesting creations on the dawg menu, but the brews are really nothing special. Good solid time here and kid friendly, not so great service or beer.

My salad was huge and to their credit, there was no upcharge for the anchovies. I do wish that they had used fresh green and red peppers, and not canned black olives.

Overall, the prices and food are similar to most of the local Italian restaurants.

The Forager is a small local market and cheese shop with a wide variety of groceries…read more They offer sandwiches, beverages, dozens of different cheeses, several types of cured meats, local and specialty honey, hot sauces, salads, vegetables, eggs, olive oils, syrup, salts, butter, chocolate, dry pasta, tomato pie, fruits/jams, frozen Italian foods, coffee, desserts, etc. We had a lot of fun looking through all the neat items they had. The staff was kind and knowledgeable. They offered some samples of items and were a great conversation. They offer gift boxes, cheese boards and catering. Their website states they offer classes and private events. I ended up with a jar of Noccioliva - Hazelnuts and cocoa join together with extra virgin olive oil in this silken chocolate cream $18 and change (delicious, puts our US version of Nutella to shame), French black cherry jam from La Maison du Piment - made with only rare cerises noires (black cherries) harvested near the village of Itxassou in the French Basque Country, cane sugar, lemon juice and pectin and local wildflower strawberry honey from A-Frame Apiary in Boyertown. If I didn't stuff myself at Itri across the street I would have bought some cheeses and a sandwich, but I'll remember that for my next venture to Bristol Borough! Some items are pricey, but fair for what you're buying. If you like small specialty markets like this give the Forager a visit! Thanks guys!
