Sorry if germans, but according to this article, they have the Chelsea’s Grilled cheese/tomato soup.

How does it compare to the original? Willing to make the trip if it’s still what I remember.

I haven’t had their food but i did hear it’s pretty damn good. Really cool spot too. I wish it had opened when I still lived in Br

Nobody goes there. It's too crowded.


But yeah, I have heard that the focaccia grilled cheese and tomato soup is as good.

We just got a pretzel and it was perfect with a dipping cup of tomato soup.

It’s delicious. The po-boy sliders are pretty good too.

They did a great job on that place with food, drink and atmosphere.

Haven't had the food, but the beer selection is incredibly disappointing for a beer garden and especially one with as many taps as they have. Felt like they had entirely too much of the generic shite you can find sitting on shelves all over the country. Olive or Twist, Chimes, and BTR all have a much better selection, BTR and OoT with much fewer taps.

That being said, I am still going to go. Very cool atmosphere, and its unlike any other place in BR. Going to be great over the next month or 2 when the weather is going to be perfect.

ETA: Also, if this is the Chelsea's guy involved in this. Bring back the Mojo Chicken Poboy, may be better than the grilled cheese

No idea why the beer nerds keep saying this. They've got all the LA beers like ghost, jucipher, sips, etc and decent pours from other styles. The place is trying to make money. No one besides you and a handful of beards, who never frequent bars enough to matter anyway, are going to drink the triple iPa from a little town in Vermont no one has heard of

The place is printing money so I think their choices are fine

I'm hoping the mojo chicken poboy comes back. And the beer selection is fine. I'm not the beer nerd I used to be, but I had a Parish Sips and a Port Orleans 3-Day Weekend. If you can't find a beer you want to drink there, that's your problem.

Why are you so triggered that I gave my opinion on their beer selection?
