    Fat Pat breakfast sandwich--life-changing!
    Nick C.

    A friend and I came here after a bike ride, and Cafe Serendipity truly hit the spot. I got the Fat Pat breakfast sandwich, which had sausage, eggs, cheese, hash browns, jalapenos, onions, and salt/pepper/ketchup, and it was delicious. Although the sandwich sounds akin to a breakfast Fat Sandwich, I found the sandwich to be a good ratio/diversity of toppings that made it really feel like a balanced sandwich and a reasonable way to start the day compared to the classic Fat Sandwiches we see around our state that feel like a momentuous eating feat if you finish one--though to be fair I was coming off of a 20 mile bike ride so take my opinion with a grain of salt because I was starving. All of that is to say, this breakfast sandwich was one of the best I ever had in my life. The staff were so kind too. Overall, I can't wait to be back!

    The service was awesome, but the food was mediocre at best. The place was clean & welcoming.

    Butcher's Grill is always such a tasty surprise! Second time here and it never lets me down!!!The…read morefood was absolutely delicious and came out super quick. If you don't want your entrées coming out with the appetizers, just give them a heads up, because the kitchen moves fast here. We started with the mushroom dish and a hearty soup...both full of flavor and the perfect start to the meal. Then came the star of the night: the lamb chops. Perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Everything we tried was fresh and satisfying, the kind of food that makes you want to go back the next day. The service was on point- Friendly and attentive, and the whole space has this quirky, cozy feel, like you're sitting in your grandma's living room with its mix of chairs and warm, homey vibe. It's also BYOB, which is always a win. We brought a bottle of wine that paired perfectly with the meal. Overall, Butcher's Grill is a must-visit if you're in the area. Great food, quick service, and a cozy atmosphere that makes it stand out. Can't wait to come back!

    Overall cute whole in the wall butcher shop restaurant. They were very nice but the food was okay…read more Husband for the rib eye and he said it was great. Everything else (chicken, salmon, burger) was overcooked. I would stick to the steaks. Seems like their speciality. The food presentation was great tho! And seems like locals love it. We came for an early dinner so they were able to accommodate us but it was busy by the time we left.

    ***1 1/2 stars***…read more It's pretty rare for me to go below two stars, but we literally couldn't find any redeeming qualities other than a kid-friendly chalkboard off to the side. Rough, rough lunch and I'm picking the places going forward. I came here with my top-tier chum and #1 honorary young pup chum for a midday meal yesterday. This was an unfortunate recommendation by my chum, but in her defense, the biggest selling point was that they had a young pup section of the menu (which many of my suggestions didn't). This may have been a sign that it's time for the young pup to just order off adult menus going forward. This is probably a weird time of year to be over here anyway; this restaurant recently moved next to the baseball stadium, and December just isn't the greatest page on the calendar for America's pastime so it feels a little wasteland-ish right now. There were also a few random amusement park rides that we had to walk around to access the entrance (apparently more for a nighttime winter festival of sorts?) so the vibes were a little off to start. The interior was fine though - there's an interesting looking bar off to the left and high ceilings, so it feels more spacious than it actually is, given the overall square footage you're dealing with. I also enjoyed the cow decor, though I might be missing the joke with some of the cow/pig hybrid animals on display. My chum remarked that it seemed like the menu was designed by someone who'd never actually tasted the food, and certainly wasn't the same person who cooked it. Definitely a possibility, but my general impression was that this is ostensibly a family restaurant (remember the chalkboard?) with a menu only targeting young female adults, from the bar food to the cocktails. It's very strange. I wish there was a nicer way to say it, but the cocktails were terrible. I had their version of an Old Fashioned, which had coffee in it. Just did not go well together at all; there's a reason why Irish coffee with Bailey's was invented - not every dark spirit is going to work with coffee. I find it hard to believe this was taste-tested before being added to the menu. Never again. I felt worse for my chum though, who got a holiday twist on a margarita with cranberry. It was so beyond tart I could barely swallow it and it honestly tasted like cough medicine. In a quasi-NSFW comment, my chum mentioned that this drink might be helpful for a UTI, but alas, we were at a restaurant, not a pharmacy. At the very least, they need to retrain their bartenders on basic portions of a cocktail, but when the ingredients clash, that's a management issue. We got the Cow Wedgies to share as an app - basically, flattened mozzy sticks. I like the flattened concept but these were pretty bad. I'm assuming the issue here is they were in the deep fryer for too long because they had pockets of grease that would pop when you bit into them, almost like a pimple. One of those pockets exploded and stained the front of my hoodie. Not great - an unappetizing appetizer. The impression I got was that The Barnyard were pretty aggressively touting the chicken/waffles section of the menu. I went with the Winner Winner, which was another example of not understanding basic palates and taste profiles. This is a savory item - it has chicken, mashed potatoes and this gravy/corn concoction. Inexplicably, they then added this weird tangy sauce that would be better served on a bang bang shrimp app that completely ruined the dish. It's such an unforced error I don't understand how it happened. It's going to come as no surprise, but the service matched the overall quality of the meal. There were very few customers on the premises and yet our waitress was mostly MIA. She never came by to check on us after serving the food, despite making multiple trips to a table near us to inefficiently clear it practically one item at a time. It's very hard to give constructive feedback when an experience is this bad, but to me it starts at the very beginning - make sure the items on your menu taste good and that your staff is properly trained on basic hospitality concepts. The Kingdom of Sussex deserves a lot better than this.

    Not great service at their new location. We've had 4 different servers since they've opened up and…read moreall seem to have been on their first shift.. frazzled, orders wrong or extremely slow service refilling drinks not checking up on us to make sure everything is right after another server drops the plate etc. and the food isn't quite the same quality anymore. Cant really blame it on acclimating to a new location anymore. Lol A lot of menu changes and just doesn't taste like it used to. They were stellar back at their old location in Branchville and the system worked so why change it? I guess we will stop visiting and hit up one of the other 2-3 quick service burger and fries joints that don't cost me a tip for subpar service. I'm more than happy to pay and order at a register to save my money. Wish they would've stayed in Branchville and kept their old system as we loved it and were there at least once a week! Community wasn't thrilled about the service change and terms.

Once you enter through the store, there is a sign to wait to be seated. The place has a nice and bright rustic vibe to it. I really liked the decor and table setup. Even the napkins had a rustic vibe. Started off with the potato scoop ($16) which was my fave item. The potato was shaped like the Fritos scoop chip, and the cheese dip that came with it had chunks of cheese in a melted cheese sauce. For my main, got the pulled pork sandwich ($16), which came in a pretzel knot bun and creamy slaw. It was solid meal and very filling. Other mains ordered were the roast beef "pho" style sandwich ($16) which I had a bite of and it was good and not what I expected thinking roast beef. Roast turkey ($16) was warm and also tasty. Each of the mains came with a side of potato salad. I will be back to try the sloppy Joe and their dinner meals. I highly recommend this place if you want tasty, high quality meal for a fair price. * Highly recommend making reservations on weekends * Street parking * Good service

The restaurant itself has a bright, open feel and would make a great spot for a private event.
