    She-crab bisque was good...but was more tomato biscque, not much crab flavor, but large chunks of crab.

    My wife and I had a wonderful experience last night. We were looking for a BYO, but stumbled upon this gem in Pottstown. The service was impeccable the food was very ,very good. The ambiance and $$ are for a "fine dining" experience, and it's very very close! I would absolutely come back.

    We love Stave and Stable and it has quickly become our Thursday date night locale. To start- the tapas tasting menus are creative, thoughtfully curated and Annette and Conrad are always ready to answer any questions. I love to start with the bourbon cherry sour and these days my husband is a big fan of their recommended reds so we usually get a bottle for the table. Between Swedish and Croatian tapas we are always left feeling like we've had a unique dining experience and these nights pricing is reasonable given the high quality of each dish. We recently brought friends to Stave for a birthday and I ordered the fillet from the main menu and have to say it was so well prepared they may have ruined me for eating filet anywhere else. I highly recommend trying one of their special event nights to experience what Stave and Stable is all about and keep them in mind for special events. Thank you Annette and Conrad for your impeccable service and special dining experience.

    Right off the bat, please be aware the five stars is not a reflection of perfection but rather, given everything, a well-deserved review. First, the location is in Pottstown so anyone in the Pheonixville/Collegeville/Southern Pottstown area know we need more amazing restaurants and this is absolutely one to visit. Second, the service. I feel horrible that I did not catch our server's name last Saturday night but whatever compensation she receives should be quadrupled. She was the epitome of service and we have eaten in many Michelin star restaurants and she ranks as one of our personal favorites. Third, the food. First, the food was ALL beautifully presented but it lacked a bit of execution. The good: Charcuterie board....5/5 and the Duck Dish.....5/5....pork belly, duck, cheese grits.... The unknown: Foie Gras.....candidly, I struggled with this dish. I did like it but I was used to a seared piece of Foie Gras over toast points and this was more of a clams casino presentation. By that I mean chopped liver with peppers and onions and seasoning combined and then seared:..very good taste but had some cold spots. So overall, very good and would absolutely order again but 3/5. The not good: the Waygu steak which was supposed to be medium rare and was served almost well-done. (Being kind would be to call it it Medium-well) And be advised it absolutely not A-5 waygu. (The menu did not claim it was but some people believe all Wagyu is graded the same) I suspect, although truly do not know that is was an American "Waygu". The server, however, handled the criticism perfectly and that is why the 5 star. So I can't really rate as it would not be fair as this is a dish I would avoid in the future since given the cost and perfection of execution is expected. Was every dish perfect? No. Was the service perfect? Yes. Was the restaurant decor and experience perfect? Yes. Would I go back? YES......but I would not get the Waygu.

    My husband and I went there for Valentine's Day and we love to dine out. We don't mind spending the money when we dine when it hits it out of the park. Well a few things about this place..... first the food....drinks were good and so was the antipasto appetizer then we moved in to dinner where I paid $58 dollars for 5 small scallops over risotto (not even truffle risotto). $58! My husband got short rib ravioli and that was good but not out of this world and I had requested a special dessert and note given to my husband as a surprise and they even took what I wanted the note to say down when I made the reservation and it never came. We ordered a dessert of the menu, no mention of my request. Next ambiance... the place is in a very strange location in the heart of Pottstown and not the good part. We go in and cute cozy place until you sit down in a row of two tops where we might as well of shared our meals with people on either side of us. When we were leaving I even made a joke to the woman next to me about sharing her meal with us. The service was ok and the server was nice but she really tried to sound all formal and that this was a super fancy place and it wasn't. So it seemed a little fake. So basically 2 drinks one appetizer2 meals 1 dessert $200! A little ridiculous to be honest. Won't be going back.

    Great little gem in Pottstown that friends of ours introduced us to. This place serves dinner only and reservations are recommended as it's not a big place, so seating is limited. They do require a credit card to reserve the table in case you are a no show, but you can cancel or reschedule up to 48-hours of your booking date. It's a cute place offering seating in the main dining room, porch, or courtyard. If you can't find street parking, there is a lot across the street that you can park in for $0.50/hr. It's not an overly big menu, but everything is made fresh in-house. Because everything is made fresh, they can usually accommodate most allergies and so my wife who is gluten-free and dairy-free had no issues. On Friday and Saturday evenings, they do offer a 7-course chef's tasting menu and fortunately, your entire table does not have to get it. For starters, I went with the Deviled Egg Bomb and this was probably the most unique deviled egg I've ever had. So delicious! For my main, I went with the pasta, which was a carbonara. Very fresh and tasty! Finally, I went with their creme brûlée, which was a great way to end the meal. They only serve coffee in a French press, and no decaf option, but it was delicious. The pace of the meal was too slow for our liking and I'm not sure if having a few at our table do the chef's tasting menu led to the delay. We arrived at 7pm and didn't get out of there until nearly 10:30. It was close to an hour before course 1 of 7 came out and for those of us who didn't go with the tasting menu, it was over an hour before we got our starter. We did have a good waitress and she made sure we always had something to drink. The place is a little on the loud side and music is also playing in the background, but we didn't find it that bad and our group of 6 were able to carry on a conversation without feeling like we were shouting. So glad we discovered this place and will certainly looking forward to coming back.

    Attended this "Classic American Restaurant" event this past Sunday...dinner and a movie. Feature film was TITANIC and the 25-30 (?) guests were treated to a very-nicely presented 7-course meal...each course a "tasting" of most of the 10-courses served to the 1st Class passengers on April 14, 1912...TITANIC'S maiden and LAST voyage! Each course was very tasty and presented on small plates, with the course topped with a small flower, a pansy perhaps? My older daughter and I saw the ad for this meal "event" pretty close to the actual event date, so when I contacted the restaurant it was all sold out. However, when I regaled the "Floor Captain" (a very hard-working lady!) with the story of my late grandfather's voyage TO the Uk in July 1913, only 9 months after the Titanic's horrific sinking, and aboard its older-sister ship the OLYMPIC, she put me on hold, and came back saying we could attend! Apparently my family-"connection to the White Star Line" moved the chef/owner to make room for two more "passengers!" I am attaching the night's menu from Pottstown's "Stave and Stable" restaurant, along with photos of each of my courses! Note that the cost was $95 per person, and we went to celebrate Mothers Day early!! The next dinner and movie event will be in about 2 months! Kudos to Annette Green the Floor Captain, Conrad Flynn the Manager/Chef/Owner (?) and to the Chef that nite, Hiram Quintana! Finally, I note here that there is a small municipal parking lot right across the street from the restaurant that charges 50 cents an hour, and you can pay by the ParkMobile (I think) app! There is some on-street parking as well! We had a great time, but alas, TITANIC sunk yet again!! :(

    A cute little place in Pottstown. We had some signature cocktails which were yummy. As an app, we got the French Tartine. What a great start with the warm brie layered with pears. I ordered the duck. I love duck and this is definitely one of my top 5. My only disappointment was the grits. I have never been a fan of them and even with cheese on them, I still don't like them. Lastly my friend got the risotto and she couldn't stop raving about it. I have to return with my husband who is my ultimate food critic.

    Such an amazing experience! Conrad and his team are second to none. It's intimate and romantic yet inviting for a casual experience with friends and family. The ambiance is quiet even when filled with the laughter of others enjoying the setting. As for the setting it definitely touches all your senses from the smells in the kitchen to the apple wood smoked cocktails, the sights of the decor that characterize the season, the sounds of the music and the enjoyment of others fills the atmosphere with warmth, ahh and then the tastes oh my!!

The night we were there, sweet pea soup, escargot, pierogis, mussels, arugula salad, filet mignon, John Dory, walleye, and a crab/pasta dish were on the menu. * Pricing is actually rather reasonable, between $14-22 for the app courses, and $32-52 for the 4 mains. It's BYOB, so that's a big savings as well. These sort of small scale restaurants that are a labor of love are getting harder and harder to find. The atmosphere is intimate, casual, and personal (fellow diners overheard that we forgot to bring a wine and they gave us an extra bottle they brought with them!). If you find yourself in Pottstown--as we did, make a point of going to Henry's. And ask Frank why he called his restaurant "Henry's"... (hint: it has to do with doors).

    "This hoagie is EXCELLENT!" came the excited praise, loudly, from the next room…read more Let me back up for a moment. My born-and-raised-in-Philly partner and I spent the weekend in Maryland, helping my parents with some things. On the way home to PA, because it was bonkers hot, we were tired, and neither of us was interested in cooking, I asked, "What do you want for dinner?" "HOAGIES." He didn't even pause. So, hoagies, it was to be. But from where? There's a chain place nearby, but their offerings have, of late, been disappointing. SO: Yelp - Hoagies - Sort By "Rating" - Yohn's Grocery. It was on. When we were about 20 minutes from home, I put in our order. We walked through the door and the driver arrived about five minutes later. Everything we got -- gravy fries, mozzarella sticks, and a turkey club -- was great. But the hoagie? The hoagie was off-the-charts good. Philly Perfect. And it's right in our backyard! How did we not know? This is now our go-to hoagie joint. Hands down, the best.
