We held my daughter's bridal shower at Bistro on Bridge. We cannot say enough great things about the customer service Nanette, Kevin, Jeni, and Mallory were wonderful to work with and made her day so special. I had one guest say they have never seen a bride with a continuous smile from beginning to end! I recommend Bistro on Bridge for any event!

So the biggest disconnect for me is the apps. The nachos are decent - but the cheese steak eggrolls are a blashpemy for any restaurant so close to the birth place of the cheese steak. Ground beef? Are you kidding me? Ordered them once, and never again. The other apps just don't appeal to me. Now the rest of the menu - really good! The double onion burger is my go to - carmelized onions...mmmm. The other dings that took away a star are that the chairs and stools are incredibly uncomfortable - I think they were like the only chairs and stools the world was getting for a while because I see them in so many restaurants - but the SCM issues are over, time to upgrade! Also, the space is kind of cavernous - wish they'd install some suspended accoustic tiles or something. All that concrete and metal makes for lousy accoustics. But in the end - go! You'll be glad you did.

Inattentive and unpleasant waitress, who made dining here extremely uncomfortable. Disappointed doesn't do it justice because i've been here so many times, and hadn't had a negative thing to say until this visit. Our drinks were not refilled, our plates were not cleared. It's so unfortunate I have to update my review, solely because one servers neglectful service, and a comment of "I'm doing it now" when asked to have our plates cleared. The comment was unnecessary. It sounds like I'm out to get them but I assure you, I enjoyed dining here previously, and have had many laughs and drinks with friends here.

Service is great, awesome beer list that has a wide variety. Food is average but the menu is broad, it's good, handhelds are worth $.

Came with a group, six people will lead to a group fee. Plenty of seating. Limit to the maximum number of cards they can split on (I think three). Supports mobile pay. Employees are very friendly. My short rib sandwich was absolutely delicious and better than others I've had especially because of the bread. One down side is that the sauce made the paper soggy. Most people seemed to like the things they ordered too, both in terms of meal and drink. The venue is LGBT+ friendly which makes it a safe place.

Went out to the bars on bridge street Friday night and stoped here first to get a bite to eat and then hit the upstairs bar. I ordered the short rib nachos because they sounded intriguing from the menu description. They did not disappoint, they were flavorful and filling. This was great for a light mean and the wasabi sour cream was perfect, all the flavor of wasabi but the texture of sour cream. The bar upstairs was great too with shuffleboard, arcade machines, and live music. The heaters on the one area were quite hot but other than that it was a great time.

Great spot for groups or a solo date with your partner. When you walk in its pretty much an open floor plan. There is a second floor as I seen couples going up here and there. We sat at a table with bar stools. Our waiter came over shortly after and took our drink order. The decor was retro, and the staff were nice. I would have given five stars, but we had to constantly call our waiter over for service. She was standing by the bar chatting with her coworkers. I believe she came over to check in once and we were there for a hour. I felt bad but I had to deduct from her tip because of the lack of attentiveness to her tables specifically ours lol the food was spot on: We ordered shared plates. The Caesar salad, the risotto balls which were to die for... we also tried the general Tso cauliflower and the mini crab cake sandwiches with the truffle fries.

Cute date spot ir to watch a game. The house chips are really good. Burgers were tasty but a bit more like a meatloaf flavor & texture than a typical charbroiled one.

Very cool spot with a rooftop beer garden - this is where we sat. Quite busy for a Saturday morning, but they handled all the tables well.Ordered a beer (Orange Creamsicle Wandering Into the Fog by Abomination Brewing), a pretzel with beer cheese, and some chicken wings. All came out pretty well, and quick thanks to QR code ordering. Very unique spot and Wild come back again for some of their dinner offerings.

Pros:Friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. Delicious Honey cornbread and Brownie skillet - literally one of the best I have had. Cons: Drinks were ok. Asian lettuce wraps were bland. Cauliflower wings with the Caribbean jerk rub was extremely salty and unpalatable.
I visited Phoenixville for the first time today and so bummed I waited so long. My pal and I popped into Bistro on Bridge and enjoyed a delicious lunch special of a half sandwich and salad and started off with the Brussel sprouts app. I had the strawberry mojito and she had a beer. Lively atmosphere and I look forward to returning during cooler weather to enjoy rooftop dining!

Great spot for brews and great pub food. Large selection of brews and cocktails. The place is huge and has outdoor seating. The short rib nachos are delicious. The French dip with the horseradish was also awesome. Super service as well.

The waitress Nikki (sorry if I misspelled) was so sweet and checked in on us on an ideally frequent basis. She also got my glasses to me outside when I left them at the table. Awesome service and chill atmosphere!!

Enjoyed a great meal prior to heading to Colonial Theater for Al Steward. The special Irish Stew was awesome as well as the Rueben rolls. Long Island Ice tea's are very good. Staff are very friendly and take nice care of you. Enjoyed a nice dinner with friends along with being able to watch the NCAA basketball games.

We love the atmosphere at Bistro! Absolutely packed on a Saturday night. They don't have the best food in town, but make up for it with fast service and vibes. Nachos & pizza were enjoyable. Don't sleep on the cornbread either!
