A coworker is a Grind regular, so when we were looking for a place for lunch on our way to the outlets, I figured we'd give it a try. And it was an excellent choice! I had a SmashBurger and it was perfect... the right crunch, perfect amount of cheese, and the BBQ sauce was a nice touch. Hubs had the Grind signature burger. He was also pleased but felt it was a little dry. Our friends had the Grinder w/ chicken meatballs and arrabbiata sauce, the Meatball Bowl w/ beef over squash (said the squash was the best thing ever) w/ bacon Gouda, and the Italian Melt (delicious but rich!). Four of us had fries and they are absolutely the perfect fry - pure potato taste! There was also 2 bowls of loaded baked potato soup and 2 bourbon flights for us! Everything got 2 thumbs up. We don't live nearby but we'll be back! PS... the value is there... it's priced just right! read more

The Grind was recommended after shopping at the Glenside Mill Antiques. The interior is decorated to make you feel comfortable. The food is just delicious! The chicken florentine with polenta was out of this world! Plenty of street parking or a lot is steps away. Our service was perfect! Thank you, can't wait to return! read more

We had a great experience here! The service was great & quick. Everyone's food was delicious! We had a party of 6, so all food was not pictured, but there were no complaints. We appreciated that there were gluten free options for some of our family members in attendance. We also loved the drink menu -- there were lots to choose from, including specialty cocktails and a full bourbon list. The overall ambiance was rustic and relaxed. There are three separate rooms -- bar room, lounge, and the waterwheel room that was brighter (where we sat). We definitely will be coming back! read more

We were going to go to a little place right across the street from the railroad . Someone in our party wanted breakfast. It's TOTALLY worth the few extra steps to The Grind. Nice menu selection. I got the California Chicken. My friend got the BLT. Other friend got strawberry toast and a side of applewood bacon. Choice of sourdough, brioche and wrap. We both got sourdough. Absolutely delicious. Sandwich was really fresh and hearty. The fries were fresh cut and crispy. Our server Vicky was very pleasant and helpful. Attentive and there was never a time when we had to ask for her to come over. The decor is so cute. A very modern rustic. The bathroom was definitely worth visiting. Places get another star just for clean and nice bathrooms. So The Grind gets 6 stars! read more

HH so Late- who ever heard of HH @ 10 PM!? I have not been since this opening of a limited menu- mediocre meal read more

1/11/25. We went here at our friends suggestion. The menu is very limited and I had a rough time trying to find something that appealed to me. I was torn between the Grind Burger, fried shrimp, and meatballs. The meatball customization options & sauces didn't appeal to me. I settled on the fried shrimp and they were delicious and crispy- very light tasty batter too. They were not greasy. The server told me that these are colossal shrimp and not frozen. She was 100% correct! I opted to switch out the fries for the Mac n cheese. Very delicious! No upcharge on that so I was happy. Our server was knowledgeable - but when she told us the specials- no prices were mentioned. She told us the specialty pasta - lobster ravioli- but again no prices. I thought that was odd. Our server was extremely knowledgeable on the food down to the ingredients and the cocktail menu. The desserts took longer than expected and our server acknowledged that. Something about a kitchen switch over- no biggie. Desserts were good- the chocolate mousse was phenomenal. The portion on the mousse was very generous. This was a true French dense chocolate mousse. I asked about it and the server knew how to answer my question. I've had very disappointing "chocolate mousse" in other restaurants that were a chocolate whipped cream. The Grind's chocolate mousse and my crème brûlée were top notch. I thought the carrot cake looked better than it tasted- the icing wasn't very sweet- I was glad I didn't choose that. Husband liked it though. I don't live in the area and this was only my second time here. Overall-I felt that the menu was expensive plus a lot of entrees seemed to be ala cart. Many items are not priced at all on the menu and have "market price"- I wouldn't bother to even ask. . . The quality of the food was excellent but overall I had a hard time trying to pick an appealing entree that was reasonable in price. The menu is very limited to me. I'm just not used to such fancified high end food. My shrimp was 19$ and I felt that was probably the best priced entree for what you got. I was not disappointed. The restaurant is bright, sleek and clean. I really liked seeing the lounge area. If you like drinks their cocktail list is extensive. Looks like they offer a nice variety of beers too if alcohol is your thing. One thing I thought was tacky was asking guests to tip the kitchen. This was found at the bottom of the menu. This tipping everyone is getting to be a little ridiculous in my opinion. If someone working in the kitchen wants to be tipped then be a server. Should we also tip the hostess who seats us, and the food runner? It honestly never ends. read more

Great!!! Never been there before. Service was great. Food was even better. Love the whiskey selection! Great ambiance

I want to like this place but I just don't and it's been confirmed each time I try it. Today I went for brunch. coffee was bitter and terrible. Eggs Benedict had overcooked eggs, no runniness to them whatsoever, served over dry brioche with minimal hollandaise, with mediocre sausage patties as the meat. A side of cold, dry breakfast potatoes. Previously went for dinner and had the worst chicken I've ever had, like chewing on a rubber ball. I know other people who think this place is very good. Perhaps you have to stick with the meatballs. read more

Good food, burgers were juicy and perfectly cooked to my request. Nice wait staff who didn't judge us for beer at brunch. Flights of bourbon or rye. What else to say. read more

Food was cold by the time I got it. Didn't even offer water. Atmosphere was kind of grimly. Weird smells.

I use to love it there but the last 2 times...... Not good. We were there 2 weeks ago and I got the meatballs. Flat on the bottom probably from to much bread crumbs. A mushy mess and all you could taste was an overload of Italian seasoning. When you have 5 of us questioning what happened......... Well, good luck to you. read more

I expected it to be bigger inside. It was a little aesthetically plain inside. The menu was very different. It's definitely for more the adventurous type with things like rabbit and custard as appetizers. I would've tried a main course, but however, my boyfriend is not adventurous so unfortunately, we looked at the menu but we didn't actually get to eat there so I can't tell you how the food is. read more

Was happy to see that they expanded the sides with meatballs to more than just polenta. However, ordered the mushroom bisque from the soup du jour. we were not informed that it had bleu cheese in it, as that isn't a normal ingredient in mushroom soup. It was awful. Even after trying to remove all pieces of cheese the soup. Server wouldn't take it off the bill. read more

Not a lot of choices in Boyertown but these folks are worth a visit. We enjoyed lunch there on a warm summer day. The "Grind Burger" was recommended and didn't disappoint. Our server paid attention and made sure the fries were extra crispy. If you're passing through Boyertown you wouldn't be disappointed with a quick lunch at the Grind. read more

Great food. Great cocktails. And great service! I love having such a great local option in town.

This is an our second time eating here while staying in the area for the weekend. The food is very good. The calamari is easily some of the best I have had in a long time. Their marinara sauce needs a little help but the calamari was so tender and good it really doesn't need it. The lump crab cake wasn't Maryland crap cake food but very good. We will be back when in the area flr sure! read more

Went here after a golf outing in the area and the food was pretty good! I ordered a burger but did not expect it to just have the burger patty and cheese. I was expecting lettuce/tomato/onions/pickle on it too but I had to ask for that on the side. Service was attentive, our waitress and the host were really nice! read more

I really liked the service and the IPA selection was definitely random in a good way, but my GFs ribeye was chewy to the point of grizzle all around. Would love to give them a ; but the steak was that subpar. read more

Today, Sunday, July,27th I had ordered the Chesapeake Benedict. This could be an amazing dish, however seasoning, salt/ OLD BAY was very, very overpowering. They had very graciously replaced this dish with the Smash Burger. Needless to say, it was absolutely delicious! My friend and I typically visit for lunch. I love their unique food choices, the hospitality and the feel of the restaurant. read more

Food- love that everything was made from scratch!!! I had a Caesar salad which did not have the "zip" of flavor I was expecting. Quite boring. Not much for vegetarians. Service- outstanding Beverage- paid $24.00 for a cocktail with top shelf bourbon. OMG.... I did not realize the cost until I received the check. Was celebrating my husbands b day. Did not check the price. For a small town this is crazy! 2 drinks cost more than our dinner combined. Atmosphere- excellent Just be aware of the drink prices. Toto... we are not in Philly. read more

I had such a great experience when I went last year and I couldn't wait to go back. They specialized in meatballs and half of the menu was dedicated to those offerings but now it's treated as any other option, there's only one choice now. I'm not really sure if they changed management but that was the first red flag. We ordered the poutine; it was perfect last year but we found it a bit salty this time. We also got the cheese board, for whatever reason it was market price which I have never seen, and it was $31?! For that price I was expecting a huge board but it was pretty small compared to $20 boards that are way more aesthetically pleasing. I got the chicken meatball with the mushroom demi-glaze on asparagus and it was good, chicken was tender and seasoned well. I tried the bacon gouda mac and cheese and the sauce was incredible, interesting choice using rigatoni pasta. I also tried the duck entre and I was not a big fan, it was super tough and hard to eat. Overall food was good but not as great as it used to be. The service was great we had over 10+ people in our party and food was brought out pretty quick and there weren't any mistakes. read more

Amazing service, amazing food, unbelievable bourbon menu. Definitely going to add this to our restaurant rotation!

Excellent drinks and outstanding chicken meatballs! I would absolutely make a reservation here on the weekend.

At the Grind the food is a lot more elevated than you would expect upon first inspection of the place. Things are done with the gourmet flare that you would not expect in such a small town; making Grind a destination with in Boyertown. Although the menu is fairly standard with some exceptions you will find some very unique treasures among their specials. The staff are very attentive and also nice here. I don't think I've had a less than excellent experience here. The restaurant is spacious inside and I have never felt crowded in and there is ample parking in the area. Every time I am in Boyertown I eat at the Grind. I have been quite charmed by Boyertown of late so I make every excuse to get out this way as often as I can. That means that I'll eat at the Grind more often in the future and I hope to see you there enjoying this establishment as well! read more

We consistently have a great meal here, and the wait staff is always friendly and helpful.

Food was delicious! Service was great! Fun atmosphere! I would definitely recommend this place for a chill evening date.

This place is amazing through and through! Everything we tried was so good, the service was top tier, and the atmosphere is so cozy and cute! They even have a lounge to enjoy drinks and appetizers, along with an area for large parties. This was my family's first time trying this place and we all agree that we can't wait to come back! We had the chicken bacon ranch flatbread to start, meatball bowls as entrees, and the carrot cake for dessert. All three were amazing! Definitely recommend this place, will have to come back to try more of the menu! read more

Great atmosphere, even better food and service! We are not huge fans of meatballs (ground beef is not our favorite selection when eating out); however, they have seafood and chicken dishes that are stellar! read more

I found the farmhouse decor absolutely adorable! However, grind does not fit into just one category. It is a great spot for date night, great for families, great if you want casual fare, and great if you want top-of-the-line gourmet food. The meatballs seem to be their specialty and are really delicious, however, the crabcakes are to die for. And the risotto? It must be the same recipe they used in the movie "Date Night", because it was perfect! I'm actually really mad at anyone who has ever sold me anything and called it a crabcake before. I consider this to be my first crabcake. Oh! And the mussels! So good!! We finished up the evening with a divine chocolate mousse. I was thrilled that it was dairy free and that they were many dairy free, gluten-free, and even vegan options! The service could not be better. Everyone who works there is friendly and efficient! Thank you, grind, we will be back! read more

Very good American food with a cool interior to the restaurant. The staff was great and the ambiance was calm

Horrible! The dinner portion of a Ceasar salad was sad, smaller than a side salad. The burger is order medium well done came out raw, i couldn't eat it. Prices have sky rocketed for a small town eating establishment. Used to be my favorite place as a regular, but questioning if it will remain... read more

We had a family dinner there last Sat. after previous dinner plans fell through. It was Halloween weekend and the staff were dressed in costume. They were all very friendly and helpful. Pre-dinner cocktails were excellent. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. My 2yo granddaughter loved the venison meatballs. My wife and I had crab meatballs with spicy remoulade...yum. No room for dessert but they looked great. We'll definitely be back. read more

Grind is doing an exceptional job!! Now, as a soon to be Boyertown transplant...trying in earnest to learn the great food spots. Grind falls into the place you NEED to visit! Admittedly...went to their soft opening and was ok to mention. Last night, my boyfriend and I had dinner (as I am now reminiscing eating my leftovers ), and we had a wonderful time! In food and service. My Hunny being a bourbon drinker thought it so cool to have the flight option. Then to food-- We started with the Asparagus-Prosciutto Cigars. They came out pretty plated and very tasty with the accompanied side sauce. Then we had the Seafood Manicotti and Beef Meatballs alone, with Bacon Gouda Sauce for he. And Shrimp with Risotto and Asparagus for me. One standout was absolutely the app and entrees temperature. PERFECT!!! Literally. Another mention and great taste profile was that they did not go scarce on spice. The risotto had life and spice and complemented the shrimp so well; asparagus perfectly cooked too! The Manicotti did not have a heavy sauce and tasted so much of seafood (confession.....even delicious in our eating the leftovers cold as a midnight snack ). And meatballs were of great cook. Overall a fantastic recommendation for Grind! Great work in stepping it up. This soon to be townie will certainly be back soon!! read more

Waited two hours for my food I ordered a burger I asked for it to be well done it came out so pink blood was coming out

Pretty cool spot with a somewhat hipster vibe. We arrived and it was packed, but got cool spot right in the middle of the restaurant. Our server was great, very attentive and fun to talk to. We order basic drinks, vodka sodas, an ipa they had on tap. Everything was standard issue, no complaints on that front. Started off with the stuffed mushrooms, which really hit the spot. Great flavor profile and temperature. The steamed mussels had a flavorful broth, and the mussels were plentiful. We got 4 different meatball bowels in different preparations and they were all really good, but none of them really hit the "great" mark. The portions were a bit lacking on this front and I would recommend maybe 3 bowls for 2 people if you are going the meatball route, just so you really feel like you got the true experience. All in all it was a really good experience and I will be back. I recommend this restaurant for some nice comfort food, you wont be disappointed, but at the same time, it won't knock you socks off. read more
