I woke up Easter morning and there was no Easter Basket filled with chocolates waiting for me. What…read moreshould I expect when I am an old man living alone with two dogs. Since I had no basket to enjoy, I decided to take myself out for Brunch. I remembered the last time I went to brunch at, Brick + Bramble, it was pretty good. So I made myself presentable and headed to Edwardsville. I'll tell you up front, this Brunch far exceeded the last one and I thought it was outstanding. I seated myself at the bar, my favorite place to eat when dining alone. Was glad to see one of my favorite things and that is Hooks and Outlets Under the Bar. It's such a nice touch, to provide those for the customers. Let me start out giving a shout out to the young lady who was bartending. She did an outstanding job making my cocktails and taking my order. I ordered a Morning Martini and she asked if I wanted that or did I really want just an Espresso Martini. She quickly explained the differences and I went with the Espresso. I've had the Morning, but this espresso one, made my morning. While I was reading the Brunch menu, another server came up to retrieve drinks for her table. As she waited, I asked her what would she recommend for me to order. Without blinking she said, Fried Chicken Benedict. I giggled and told that was what I was leaning towards and her recommendation made my mind up. When my Benedict arrived, my eyes bugged out of my head. It was huge, I mean seriously huge. I could not eat all of it, I had to take half home. Later that night, a little warm-up and I had dinner. The Benedict was grilled biscuits topped with hand-bread fried chicken breast topped with over-easy eggs and house made sausage gravy. The breading on the breast was crunchy and crisp. Eggs were done perfectly and the sausage gravy was equal to a farmers wife. I may have been getting full, but I couldn't just have one cocktail. After all it's Brunch and Easter morn. After seeing the flier for the spring cocktail specials, I ordered a Pistachio Martini. It's vanilla vodka, Amaretto, Bailey'sBlue Curacao with a Crushed Pistachio Rim, made up for not having an Easter Basket filled with chocolate. The rich creamy texture was like drinking a dessert. Before spring is over, I'll be back for another. Again, shout out to the great bartender who took care of me.

We waited for an hour and 30 minutes for our food tonight. When it finally came out, the boneless wings were barely warm, missing our ranch which we had to wait for. The fries were overcooked and we could barely eat them. Added salt because they were tasteless and it still didn't help. The ketchup lid fell off onto my food (gross) and tasted like it was bad. The codfish tasted like it was cooked in burnt oil or something. It was also barely warm. We couldn't quite figure it out and the onion finger things didn't taste like they were good. The only halfway good thing was the steak and cheese sandwich. They were very busy tonight, so we were trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, but when the food was not even good, like at all, that really sucked. Hopefully this was a fluke and they figure it out. We really want them to succeed. Sadly we won't be returning.

Still in love with Hidden Gems and everything it has to offer! The bar itself is such a fun spot…read more The décor is playful and whimsical, and the dance floor is always a good time. The upstairs lounge is perfect if you want to hang out with friends or just take a break and rest your feet for a bit. I absolutely love that space and how comfy it is. One of the biggest perks of Hidden Gems is their back room, which allows them to host events and fun pop-up experiences. I've been to a few, and most recently attended the "Taylor Swift: Bejeweled" experience. The space was decked out in all things Taylor, with every era clearly represented. Giant friendship bracelets hung from the ceilings and lined the walls, which was such a fun touch. And of course, there were plenty of photo ops with my close personal bff, Taylor herself! The drink menu was themed to match the eras, with tons of creative options. My friends and I tried several cocktails, along with a few NA options as well. I really appreciate that they offer non-alcoholic drinks as I've been cutting back on alcohol over the past few months, and it's nice to still have fun choices that actually taste good! The Mirrorball was easily my favorite drink of the night. It tasted just like an orange creamsicle and was served in a disco ball...so good and so fun. My last drink of the night was "So Long London," which was almost like a dessert in a glass. Highly recommend ending your night with that one!

They serve pizza with thin crust, medium crust, and thick crust--so whatever your preference, they have a pizza crust to suit. Their toppings are varied and they have a few specialty pizzas as well. We opted for a sausage and onion pizza on a medium crust. It was good with just enough crust to be chewy. We typically enjoy vegetarian pizzas but their veggie selection was a bit uninspired (onions, peppers, mushrooms, and olives). They did have a BBQ chicken pizza which sounded good though! They also have a selection of salads. I got their side salad which was crisp iceberg, carrots, and cheese. It was basic but super fresh with housemade thousand island. For my cocktail, I got the whiskey smash, which was tasty (though a bit light on the whiskey). Our server was friendly and the prices are reasonable.

Can a dive bar be cute? If so, The Lounge is a cute dive bar…read more It is simply decorated, compact in size and a welcoming atmosphere. I discovered, The Lounge because I arrived super early for a wine tasting at another business in the plaza. My friend and I were immediately won over, when we saw the bar dog. Her name is, Lucy. I liked that the front window is tinted so you cannot see in, but once inside you can clearly see the outside. If you like to play slots while you sip your inexpensive cocktail, The Lounge has about 4 or 6 machines for you to play. If you do, good luck. Best of all, the drinks are super affordable aka "cheap". The bartender was friendly to us being newcomers. Seeing the rest of the patrons at the bar and every stool was full, you could tell they were regulars at this neighborhood watering hole. If I'm ever back in the area, I'd definitely stop by for a cocktail.
