It was super hot but all or most of the outdoor seating has umbrellas for shade at least and there was live music. Service was very friendly, our server was under 21 and not able to first hand recommend top beers to us but did tell us what was popular. We were also given a couple free samples which is always super nice. We ended up getting a couple 5 oz pours which were only $3 each, a steal. We also tried a couple cocktails, the peach smash and key lime tini, both very tasty. The key lime drink did lean more coconut than lime and it was also on the sweeter side. The spinach artichoke dip was great and I enjoyed my Thai chicken salad. My friend got the Mac and cheese and said it was on the bland side. Food is average but I enjoyed the drinks and vibes. Will definitely be back to chill when the weather is nicer.

Our waitress brought me a complimentary brownie and ice cream for my birthday, which was delicious. For entrees we ordered the halibut risotto and strawberry pecan salad. The halibut risotto was delicious, but for $44 I would have expected a little more halibut on it. The strawberry pecan salad itself was really good and I would get that again, however we did the optional add-on chicken and were shocked at how dry it was. I've honestly never had such dry chewy chicken at a restaurant before. Besides the chicken we were overall very happy with the food. They also brought out a little board with pickles, gummy bears and nuts on it while we waited for our food which was nice.

While I want to love Tapestry and am so glad to have any independent coffee shops around, there's a…read morefew reasons I can no longer give it five stars. They have awesome, unique drink options - especially seasonally. Some seasonal drinks and flavors nail it, but more often than not, I wouldn't know what the flavor was if I didn't order it as they just don't have enough of the flavor. My biggest complaint is cleanliness as it often looks like some deep cleaning is in order. They roast their own coffee which is awesome, though if you're a "coffee snob" like we are, we've noticed their beans are flat so we don't tend to buy them unfortunately. Service is always super friendly and I still prefer going here to a chain. They also often have tea drinks on their seasonal menu which I love that they cater to tea drinkers as well.

I ordered a couple of seasonal flavors and breakfast items to share. They had 2 sizes to choose from, a 10oz and 16oz. The 16oz has 4 shots of espresso in it so it will definitely fuel your morning. The breakfast items I purchased were a breakfast sandwich which is fully customizable and the avocado toast. The breakfast sandwich was really good but the avocado toast wasn't my favorite. I think the avocado mash was a little too bitter. Opt for a breakfast sandwich and you won't be disappointed.

FANTASTIC food, drinks, service, patio area, and ambiance!…read more I'm from Arizona and visit my in-laws in central MN 1-2x per year. However, this trip we had a wedding southeast of "the cities" where wife and our two kids loved that menu online and decided to check it out on our way to the wedding the next day. Honestly, this has been my fav restaurant in all of Minnesota. Ribeye, walleye, pretzel, and drinks were perfect! Unfortunately, I likely won't be in the area ever again to revisit it; however, we liked it so much I had to post a positive review. Cheers from AZ.

Oh boy...where to start? I guess I will start with the pros…read more First, I always like to mention what day and time I visited a restaurant. I decided to get takeout for lunch on a Monday afternoon. I have been on a kick lately trying Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwiches, or in Barley and Vine's case, the Tennessee Hot Chicken Sandwich. That was the main reason I wanted to stop by for lunch. I placed a to-go order, but we have also dined inside several times before. Starting with the positives, the staff is always very friendly and welcoming. There is really no issue there. The staff is fantastic. The overall vibe and ambiance of the restaurant are incredibly nice as well. It leans toward a fancier, higher-end, upscale atmosphere. I honestly think that may be part of the reason several reviews are so positive and why people may perceive the food as being higher quality or better tasting. We have also had brunch here more than once. We are generally not brunch people, but we have really enjoyed the brunch items we have ordered in the past. I am hoping we can come back for brunch again, and maybe I can eventually write an updated review with a higher rating. So why only 3/5 stars? My most recent to-go visit left me incredibly disappointed. To start, the Tennessee "Hot" Chicken Sandwich is not hot at all. "Hot" is absolutely not the correct word to use. It should probably just be called a Tennessee Chicken Sandwich, and honestly, even using "Tennessee" or "Nashville" does not seem accurate. This seemed like a basic Fried Chicken Sandwich made from a frozen chicken filet with far more breading than actual chicken. It is not the most pleasant photo to look at, but I attached a picture of the partially eaten sandwich to this review. You can clearly see how little chicken meat there actually was. They put white BBQ sauce on the sandwich, but I do not really have anything particularly good or bad to say about it. It was just kind of there. It did not improve the sandwich, but it did not necessarily make it worse either. The fries were also just fine. They seemed to be lacking flavor and may have been slightly burnt. Speaking of overcooked, the chicken sandwich also tasted overcooked. Overall, the sandwich and fries were simply not very good. I would never order the sandwich again, and I would probably substitute the fries for a different side in the future. Another issue is the repeated delay with to-go orders. I have ordered takeout from Barley and Vine maybe three or four times, and every single time the order has been late. I usually arrive only one or two minutes before the scheduled pickup time. Sometimes I even wait in the parking lot because I do not want to arrive too early. Every single time, the order is not ready at the scheduled time. This time, I only had to wait about six minutes past the pickup time. However, during my previous to-go experience a few weeks earlier, I waited more than 15 minutes past the scheduled pickup time. This has also happened during other visits. Finally, everything usually comes down to whether the meal is worth the price. I paid $17.77 for the Tennessee Hot Chicken Sandwich with fries. That included a 48 cent credit card surcharge. They add a 3% surcharge to all credit card payments, which automatically leaves a bad taste in my mouth at any restaurant. It's not something they have to do, to support higher wages or whatever they want to tell you. It's something they CHOOSE to do. Other restaurants don't do, or they simply increase their menu prices 3%. Which I would rather have than yet another fee in this world. Regardless, the meal was simply not worth the price. The sandwich was not flavorful, was not spicy, did not contain enough chicken, and tasted overcooked. The fries also seemed overcooked and lacked flavor. It was not a good value. You could drive a little farther down the road to Dave's Hot Chicken and get a more flavorful meal, a larger portion, and a lower price. This review feels harsh, but I am hoping it comes across as constructive criticism if management happens to read it. Overall, I cannot recommend ordering takeout from Barley and Vine. I cannot recommend the Tennessee Hot Chicken Sandwich, and I do not particularly recommend the fries either. They were not absolutely terrible, but they were not great. I am still hoping to visit Barley and Vine again. I will likely avoid ordering takeout because it has consistently been a poor experience. However, I hope we have a better experience the next time we dine inside, and I will definitely be ordering something else.

Friday before Valentine's Day 4:30pm…read more Lots of open seating, we were able to be seated immediately at a booth. During the late afternoon it's a fairly bright and family friendly spot, but I have been to the one in White Bear Lake at night and it was very dim and moody later in the night; great for a date! One glass of Apothic Inferno Red Blend for me. A glass of Chemistry Pinot Noir for my guy. I have to say that I have tried their Signature-Tinis at the White Bear location in the past and thought they were fantastic. Cute, fun and delicious!! Our wine came out fast, and soon we were greeted by our server. He did not introduce himself, he was super quick to just ask if we were ready to order. I am not sure if this is because he is busy, or if it's early and the mood of the restaurant isn't fancy enough for him to be more inviting yet. We did have our orders ready so we're able to list them off to him quickly. He did not ask us any questions we just knew the information he would want so gave it to him; such as how our steak should be cooked and what sides we would like. We ordered a Valentine's Day special appetizer - Baked Brie with Raspberry and Baguette We ordered the Grilled Vegetable and Bull Bite salad to share. We both ordered the Valentine's Day special appetizer - Grilled Filet and Lobster. Mine rare, my boyfriend's medium rare. I chose smashed potatoes as my side and he chose quinoa side. After our disappointing experience with the person that took our order, we were greeted with the server that would be taking care of us for the evening. He was extremely pleasant. Immediately introducing himself, James. Told us that his co worker had took our order and that I was in and asked us what wine we were drinking. He was very friendly. I felt better about the experience after this, because if that first guy was our server and that was the kind of experience we were going to have tonight I would have been extremely disappointed. Especially after I've had good times at the White Bear location and talked this place up to my boyfriend. Baked Brie with Raspberry and Baguette - I loved this appetizer. Beware it comes with Walnuts if you are allergic. I was able to scrape the off the top of the Brie before eating it and survived. The gooey center was perfect for their tiny crostinis. I could eat this all day. Grilled Vegetable and Bull Bite salad - not enough grilled vegetables all I found was asparagus and onion. Although the blue cheese and salad dressing were incredible. Grilled Filet and Lobster - They had our steaks mixed up but that was no biggie. My rare steak ended up on my boyfriend's plate with his quinoa but we just swapped them. The steak was good but nothing impressive. Smashed potatoes - same, the green beans had an interesting twist that I felt like resembled more of an asian style dish, so an interesting combo. The lobster was cooked to perfection and was AMAZING! Great job on that!! My boyfriend's quinoa side was way better than the smashed potatoes on my plate so I'd recommend ordering them as your side dish. We didn't have enough room for dessert but if I did I wanted to try their Valentine's Dat special crème brûlée.
