    Outside seating at new Brandywine - open 9/19.
    Christopher W.

    Like the Brandywine dining hall in the Middle Earth housing area. Maybe 2 months old as of 11/19. All u can eat. Sorry to say music did not thrill wife, but 92 year old mother in law liked it a bit. Thankfully, easy to park with handicap placard. Helps to be hungry. $12.50 flat fee for brunch at 2:30 pm on a Sunday. Included lunch, breakfast, and dessert items. Nice salad bar, pizza, Stromboli, garden burgers, fries, soups, smoothies, coffee, fruit drinks, pancakes, eggs, sausage, hash browns. Liked the posters and maps from Middle Earth, signs to places in Middle Earth, second breakfast area (see The Hobbit). Lots of trees on campus, many bike users, handy paved paths. Fun to people watch - walked around campus after. Pretty idyllic setting - and pleasant service.

    There is a outdoor dining area with wind and sunshine. This is one of my favorite spots.

    The Brandywine is kind of a new dining hall for me and it has become one of my favorite spots for lunch already. I think it is amazing that they have a bunch of outdoor tables in the dining hall and the staffs are super nice.

    Idk what this is

    Incredible food choice! The versatility of brandywine chefs are showcased as there are fine dining options and the ability to get greasy pizza as well. The range of the dining in this dining hall is PHENOMENAL. Walking in here at least 3 times a day never gets old. The surprise behind what dishes they are serving each day is the only thing giving me reason for staying alive on this godforsaken planet. The smell of the dish drop is so exhilarating, I wish it existed as a candle. One of my favorite pastimes is emptying the salt shakers every time I come in to have a meal. I love trying to get my favorite drink, and being presented with a surprise EVERY TIME! Sometimes it's sweet tea, sometimes it's just water, sometimes it's unknown juice, and you know what? It is all worth the surprise as it reflects the unknown miracle of the meaning of life. I might dislike every single option they have, so I'm forced to go to the deli, but the workers at the deli work with such a sense of urgency that cannot be beaten anywhere else. I can get a sandwich in at least 20 minutes! Finding the occasional hair in my food delights me as I now have floss to last me at least a week! Additionally, there is ALWAYS seats available inside brandywine. You can always count on finding one by watching someone until they're done eating, and then sprinting to take over their seat. Lastly, one of my favorite things about brandywine is finding everyone's leftovers on the table you just sat at. If I went to every single table, and gathered every piece of lettuce left behind, I would have enough to make my own salad! How incredible is that?! Anyways, brandywine is a once in a lifetime experience, meaning you only want to go there once. Thank you brandywine! You've changed my life

    It's a small location and not too hard to find, regardless it is never really crowded as people enjoy eating at Pippins more.

    Came here for brunch. The place has an upscale vibe and the staff is very nice. There is a lot to…read morepark in and the restaurant validates. We got the cranberry sage mimosa and pear ginger mimosa to drink. For a starter, we got the house made biscuits. Our entrees were the pblt, crab cake benedict, and lobster roll. Cranberry Sage Mimosa- This is sweet and fruity, carried by the cranberry sage syrup. A touch of lime gives it an extra burst of citrus. Pear Ginger Mimosa- This is a sweet and spicy drink with a strong pear flavor and a little zing of ginger. Quite refreshing! House Made Biscuits- The biscuits are hot and fluffy with a nice crusty top. Served with thyme butter and sweet honey spread. PBLT- This sandwich has a pork belly base that is savory and meaty. A bit of tomato jam gives it a nice contrast and honey bacon aioli adds a little sweetness. Crab Cake Benedict- The crab cake is fresh and poached eggs add extra bulk with each bite. The hollandaise sauce ties the flavors together. Served with a side of green salad. Lobster Roll- Fresh lobster pieces tossed in a cold mayo dressing. Served on a buttery bun with a side of crispy fries. Tasty! Great experience overall!

    Showed up at opening on Mothers Day and apparently if you don't have a reservation u can't be…read moreaccommodated. There were maybe 3 tables taken up and they said to my face they don't have a waitlist. Walk away, gave them a call and they said they have a waitlist... crazy work lying to my face. Pretty sure u can accommodate a small party that's literally right there when u have open seats and ur reservations aren't even showing up. Food has been great in the past but respectfully, front staff handled that poorly. Good riddance

    I swear I love coming here just took forever for our food to come out for my mom's birthday lunch …read more 2 of us + my baby. The Hawaiian is always so fire but this time mine came out medium when I wanted medium rare , when it was remade it actually then came out so rare instead of but I felt bad and just said it was okay lol still enjoyed it I'm against a kale salad , I don't know why kale frightens me when it is dressed , however I absolutely loved all the salads( all their salads are with kale) Especially the yellowtail sashimi salad. The it was the best and I wouldn't have ever thought to try to until the server recommended it for me I think for 3 apps and 2 mains we dined a little over two hours , waiting for the surprise dessert to come took a while too , and of course the remake of the steak took some time . Genuinely a five star place , just had a four star experience. The servers aren't responsible for what the chefs put out , but they are the first impression, and they are delightful :)

    It's been over a decade since I visited. We arrived for an early dinner for my son's birthday. He…read morewanted to try the famous pineapple marinated steak. Even at 5 in the afternoon, the restaurant was pretty full. Nevertheless, we were seated rather quickly and our waitress Michelle came out to greet us. The menu is one page and she guided us to the favorites. Overall, the steak was tender, the ribs were falling off the bone the slaw was not too watery. I would recommend visiting for the easy going atmosphere and friendly service. Please note that the baked potato is an option only after 5:00PM.
