It has been a while since we dined in at Butcher's & Bakers as we don't have a lot of opportunity to get out for dinner. Today we went and received excellent service from Matt at the bar. He was friendly, knowledgeable & skilled with his drink service (I'm an IPA nerd/snob and he can talk the talk and walk the walk) as well as making fantastic suggestions in regards to our food. The meatballs and garlic bread were better than we remember (and we thought they were great before!). The short rib entree was amazing. And by far, the bread pudding was the best of the best! Matt's suggestion of having a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream (from local craft ice cream spot Honeycone in Chester) should just be how it comes on the menu. This introduction to Honeycone will have us getting it everytime we come back and we want to see their spot in Chester too. The ice cream was that good! So glad we came back and look forward to going again! A+
