    Fries
    Will S.

    The food here was so delicious! I really couldn't believe it - everything we had tasted great. I was a little skeptical of ordering the poke bowl, but it was the special that day and the server recommended it so I gave it a shot - it was awesome! My aunt got the fried rice and added the chicken - the rice had a really nice spice to it! We got the fries from as an appetizer and they were great as well! We sat outside along the train tracks and it was a great vibe with shade and music! Will definitely be back!

    I really enjoyed the experience! All the workers were kind. We sat in the enclosed patio and it wasn't too cold even though outside was windy and rainy. I enjoyed looking out at the rainy train tracks. The food was also all tasty! Crab dip had a good crab flavor, not overly cream cheesy. The chicken was flavorful, asparagus cooked nicely and the gravy was like the very comforting type of gravy you used to have at grandmoms with the mashed potatoes. I'll definitely check it out again

    I really enjoyed this hipster restaurant near the old railroad tracks. Note: It gets very busy Friday and Saturday nights, so reservations are recommended. We had to wait in the bar which is small. Our cocktails were excellent and after we were seated. The service was excellent and the food delicious. Plenty of parking and I like the vibe of the place.

    Sexy fries! Yes, they're as good as everyone says they are!

    This is practically a five star rating. I plan on coming back to try some other items. Solid drink menu: Great tasty food: This was our first time here and the quality of food and bar concoctions is great. It seems like I am touring restaurants in old train stations but that wasn't planned. The Manhattan was really delicious. And the sexy fries use a homemade hollendaise sauce which has a nice lemony flavor. Get them! The gumbo with shrimp was quite flavorful with a good spice. One of the better ones I have had in my time. My wife got the chicken sandwich and it looked like half a chicken on it. She loved it. They had a smash burger special which I got to go for my daughter and she devoured it. The slight vinegar zinfg in the sauce and roasted peppers were a match made in heaven. Definitely a great place with a cool atmosphere. They were a bit busy and our server wasn't around much, but that's how things roll these days. Many other staff members checked in on us Going back soon!

    Fish Tacos

    4 star food with 2 star service. I came here for lunch when visiting a business in the area. The host was on the phone with someone trying to make a reservation and I had to wait 4 or 5 minutes. Not a big deal except he didn't even acknowledge that I was there. All it would have taken was a quick finger held up to let me know I'd have to wait but I didn't get that, including when he walked into the dining area to check on a table, then came back to the stand. I was happy with the ambiance sitting outside. This would be a good place rain or shine since the patio is covered and has heaters, but again, the service wasn't great. The food came out very slowly, I was here for more than an hour to get a drink, some hummus, and some tacos, and the waitress took a long time between visits back to my table. The food was pretty good. I had the Negroni, the Hummus, and the Fish Tacos. Everything I had was a positive experience, but the tacos were frustrating to eat. They put the fried fish on top of a giant pile of tomatoes, cabbage, etc. which helped keep it crisp, it as a result, it was very difficult to eat, every other bite being just vegetables or pushing the fish out of the tortilla. Tasty though.

    Fried chicken sandwich and salmon
    Courtney C.

    I have been wanting to try this place for years and recently decided that NYE would be a great day to try it since my boyfriend and I needed plans and the impression I got of the place was that it was supposed to be very 'hip', 'fun', and have good fare. The place was significantly smaller than I thought it would be. It was in an old train station and so there are many little rooms. I definitely recommend getting a reservation and all reservations are for 90 min increments. My boyfriend and I don't go to a ton of restaurants for dinner and this is definitely a type of place I would love to go to as it has a great cocktail list and more "elevated" American dishes. I wasn't sure what he was going to think but he absolutely loved it. He's not big into craft beers but did get one that he enjoyed. I got the Harvest moon cocktail which was equally pretty as it was delicious in a little coupe glass. We split the duck confit fries which were heavenly. The duck was super tender and I loved the gravy and added bacon. He went with the fried chicken sandwich and I got the salmon with asparagus risotto. I am still dreaming of the salmon. It had a perfect "crust" and was flavored deliciously. I could have done without smoked tomato chutney as it honestly just tasted like chili , and the flavors were a little abrasive next to the salmon and risotto. I definitely cannot wait to go back. There was ample parking too which was nice since it is in town. The bathroom could have been up-kept better as it wasn't the cleanest and out of tp. Our waitress was also very nice but seemed a little rushed. Maybe it was the holiday and it was busier than I could tell, we were seated alone in a room so that was also nice. Overall, a great spot and I'm excited to go back!

    get the gumbo, It's delicious and ask for some shrimp on it. The service is great as well as the food & ambience.You'll love this place too.

    Cool vibe, really nice staff, and decent menu. The food is presented very well and comes out decently quick. The drinks are a little pricey. Overall, great portions, but the food left a little to be desired in terms of what I expected vs. the flavor it had. The nachos were very lackluster in flavor and the salad was great but drenched in dressing.

    Branch Creek is a great open-air environment with good beer, food, and a convenient self-ordering…read moresystem. I will answer the questions I had before going, as others probably have the same: Is it family friendly? Yes, there were plenty of kids and even a couple babies on site. Its spacious and open air so there is no crowded feel. On the night we went it wasn't overly loud. My kids are usually picky eaters but they devoured their kid's meals and said it was very good. How's the beer? Very good. Branch brews a decent selection of their own beers and ciders which aren't bad at all. Their Cowpath Roadie Stout is particularly good. They also have guest brews from other local breweries. Its self-pour. You get a card to scan at each tap pour whatever you like. This allows you to control portions for samples and try a wider variety The Food? Its pretty good. Their menu isn't as robust as others but it has some good options. The focus on flatbreads. They say their "Goat" is the best, and they are not wrong. Its very good Sports? They have several large TVs and had the Phillies playoffs on. The crowd was very into the game, making for a fun experience. Bathrooms are very clean, single use. Definitely check this place out and don't be afraid to bring kids or a group.

    The outdoor area is very cool especially if you can snag a spot by the fire pits. The thing here…read moreis that there's a wall or taps with beer, cider, and margaritas and it's all self serve and pay by the ounce. The system they have is a bit confusing. No cash is accepted, so you need to register with a credit card and your name to get a drink card which they link to your credit card. You then use the drink card to tap a strip on the wall above the tap you select for self service and then you pour. The screen above the tap will tell you how much you've spent and the cost of each pour. To order food you have to scan a QR code at your table and then enter the last 4 digits of your credit card so they can identify who you are. When you are done you drop the drink card into a box and you receive a text message with a link to your bill. I found it too complicated and didn't really love the beer selection. The food was not very good either. I guess it's a nice spot to bring a group and sit outside and their website states that outside food is allowed so that is another option.
