absolutely love Bourbon's Kitchen in Middletown! My husband took me there a few days ago to celebrate my birthday, and it was such a wonderful experience. He ordered a burger and said it was amazing--perfectly juicy and full of flavor. I had a chicken pasta dish that was very good, and we shared the roasted Brussels sprouts as a starter, which were absolutely delicious. Our waitress, Micky, was truly amazing--friendly, attentive, and made the evening feel extra special. The service here is consistently fast and welcoming, which is one of the many reasons this restaurant has become one of my favorite places to visit in Middletown. Highly recommend!

In and Out Burger
Ted S.

We stopped in just before a regional high school playoff game, and the place was packed with great energy. Even with the crowd, the staff was quick, friendly, and clearly focused on customer service The old-fashioned cocktails were top-notch, and the bourbon selection was one of the best I've seen around. The wings were crisp and flavorful, and the burgers were outstanding, I highly recommend the Truffle and Gouda Burger It's easily one of the best I've had in a while. An awesome little spot for good food, great drinks, and excellent service before the big game. Highly recommend!

Got a chicken sandwich and fries, pretty good with portion size that didn't disappoint! Service was great, our server was lovely and we got our food quickly.

In 'N Out burger

So happy we found this place! Great ambience, food and service! Tried the queso poutine, In n Out burger and French onion soup- everything was full of flavor and so delicious! We will definitely go back

Grippo wings
Molly L.

Stopped in for a quick dinner. We absolutely adored the Broasted Grippo wings, sooooo yummy! Shrimp taco were a little on the watery side and could use more flavor they were a little bland. We sat at the Bar and received excellent prompt service. Would definitely come back for those Grippo wings, they were perfectly tender inside yet crispy on the outside.

This place always makes me happy. The bartender is so nice. The food is fantastic. Takeout is so easy. They have plenty of seating and it's always clean. The drinks are expertly made. Try this place out!!

Food menu

We enjoyed it! The food was excellent, though not a huge selection. I would describe it as elevated bar food; highly elevated, plus there's Chicken and Waffles on offer! Is this available all day; are there different menus for dinner time? I do not know. Ours was a Sunday noon visit. Of course I went for the C&W. Our waitress, Danielle, asked if I wanted it tossed in the honey hot sauce. It was a very good question and I opted to take it on the side. Way more hot than honey, and I was glad to be able to drizzle and dip. The Waffles were excellent, crispy soft and just sweet enough. The syrup pour was generous. Chicken nice and tender. Phenomenal dish. Danielle, by the way, was one of the best waitresses we've experienced in recent memory. Shout out! My husband had the All American burger and loved it. The fries were special, lightly seasoned (didn't need salt) and pillowy soft inside. The half sour pickles were great! Lots of white tiles makes it very bright inside. Reclaimed wood and iron piping were included in the decor too. It seems kind of small, but when I back to visit the very clean and accessible ladies room, I noticed a much bigger second dining room with its own bar. It was not in operation at the time. I was unhappy that they only offered the extensive bourbon and drink list via a QR code. They should be proud enough of what's on offer to have quality printed lists. They didn't seem to have a problem with this in the past! I saw the photos on Yelp! They also try to steer you to use that for the food menu too but at least those are available in print (but missing a couple items, LOL). It didn't bother me because nothing would've been more appealing than the chicken and waffles. But, it might annoy you. Pro tip 1: the Fancy Sauce is perfect for dipping fries! Pro Tip 2: if you sit at one of the high tops by front window, your table will experience a tremor every time that front door slams closed. Keeping this one on the brunch list for sure.

These were more like a steak fry cut than wedges, but man alive were they good. An actual fresh cooked sweet potato. I choose that option often and these were the absolute best I have ever tasted. The burgers were excellent though they use leaf lettuce instead of iceberg. I took the barrel sauce on the side. It is a spicy ketchup aioli and went well on the burger and for dipping potatoes. I also got some mayo on the side, happy to report no charge on that as some places do. The Reuben balls were out of this world. Plenty of meat, cheese and kraut with the proper amount of crunchy breading. I could even taste caraway so it was just like mini hot Reuben sandwiches. All the above food items are highly recommended. Looking at the redesigned menu it seems they want to stress restaurant over bar which is as it should be with this quality of food. The atmosphere would be enhanced in my opinion if the staff dressed up a bit. They were all extremely casually dressed. The main dining room is all tables; if you want a booth there are a few at the rear of the bar side. They have a good sized outdoor space, but a view of Central Avenue in Middletown does not really grab me. There were a lot of people dining outside. Our waitress was very enthusiastic about the food - with good reason- and answered many questions. She checked on us appropriately though the food was delivered by other people. I don't like that practice. There was one wrinkle, my husband wanted the baked potato but his burger showed up with fries. The correct item came shortly, with apologies, and we got to keep the fries too! We will gladly return and you should too.

The place is a block or two off the main road, in a light industrial area. The building itself looks like an old house. It is very dark in there (disorienting at first) with a long bar and some tables. On Saturday afternoon, it was bumping - there were patrons at the bar and at some tables, and they were having a good time. Everyone here knows everyone else. This is the kind of place that serves Natural Light in a can. I didn't notice any draft beer, just liquor and beer in bottles/cans. Cheap drinks. I was hoping to eat, because the one other review mentioned food (and it was on the sign) but I saw no evidence of food...no one else was eating, there were no menus, etc. I didn't ask about it; had a beer or two, listened to some others chat, watched some basketball, and took off. No one was smoking in here, but you will come out smelling like smoke. It is divey, but there's nothing wrong with it. If divey is what you're into, check it out.

The bartender greeted us as we walked in & made us feel right at home. We found a table & placed our soft drink order. They brought us each a can of soda pop with a glass of ice. My husband didn't want wings so he ordered a 3 topping pizza (pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms). I tried a slice of his pizza & didn't like the canned mushrooms. He liked it though. I ordered 12 hot garlic parmesan wings & they were delicious. The celery & blue cheese with my wings was good. We will definitely eat here again on a Thursday evening for more 50¢ wings.
