Recently we were back in the area as we were driving north and we stopped in for food and a flight. Their menu continues to have a great selection of food, beers and cocktails. There are a good number of vegetarian options on the menu as well. The beer selection is just great and I look back fondly on their martini specials that seem to have continued to this day. The location is really cool as an old post office and it just always feels like a fun place to be. Service was still quick.

This is one of my favorite places to come for a celebration or just a regular day. The decor is always quirky and fun (giant paper machete figures high up - I assume from their Boombox Parade floats?), service is usually warm, friendly, and down to earth (the owner even came by to ask how everything was, which is a big deal in a building as massivee as this on a weekend night!) Their tap list is huge and I love to get a flight here to sample a little of everything - they offer both brews made in house and lots of local and not so local options to choose from. This day, I got the Willibrew Triptych Fruit Punch Sour, which went down easy and was fun to drink, the perfect amount of fruitiness while still having that sour tart punch. I tried my friend's Willibrew Choccy Stoot Chocolate Stout, which was a little more acidic than I would have preferred and a bit too light on the chocolate flavor for me, but still pretty in line with similar types of stouts. For food, I got the build your own burger with the vegetarian chicken patty, lettuce/tomato, pickles, cheddar, and their wonderful pesto aioli. I love that they've added so many more vegetarian options to the menu in the past few years - before that I did struggle a little bit and the Black Bean Dip appetizer was my go-to, but was not filling enough for a meal. The bun was fluffy and buttery and added to the sandwich instead of just being dry slop (which is what I think of most buns lol). This aioli is awesome and I want to dip absolutely everything in it, although the pesto notes were a little light on this day. For a side, I could choose from fries, mashed potatoes, or cole slaw, and went cole slaw to try to be healthy. I'm picky with cole slaw and actually really like this one - it's more savory instead of how a lot of cole slaws weirdly lean to the sweet side. It was crunchy and not too creamy or watery, just right honestly! I always love coming here and always try a new beer that I typically end up enjoying, since they offer such a wide variety and a good amount of sours (my favorite), stouts, seasonal items, unusual fruity items, and so on. I really should stop gassing it up so much because it does already get quite busy on some days, but I can't help myself - it's unique and unlike anything in the area. The lore, the history in the old post office building itself, the pinball machines and chalkboard in the bathroom filled with weird quotes, the funky artwork - they just all add to its character and the legend. Shout out to Barry if he still works at the bar and his awesome playlists - he gave the BEST service to my friends and I when we used to go hang out at the bar side regularly, he's the best and always made me feel at home.

I came home from spending more than a week down south eating all the best soul food, but I have to say, I just had the absolute BEST fried chicken sandwich at The Harp on Church. Best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had IN MY LIFE, and I consider myself a soul food connoisseur. Unbelievable! Somebody keep me away from this joint, or I'll never eat anywhere again!

I had the baked scallops with baked potato and mixed veggies. Our meals came out hot and fresh and were exceptionally well prepared. My complements to the kitchen staff! My wife also tried the clam chowder which she raved about throughout the meal. Our server "Amber" did an excellent job making us feel welcomed and kept checking in on us throughout the meal. There was live entertainment by two gentlemen with guitars and a variety of popular songs. Nice job Bidwell Tavern! We will visit again when we are in the area!

Everyone devoured their meals. The fish was freshly breaded and fried and melted in your mouth. We look forward to returning during a less busy time.
