Outstanding mixed drinks with unique and deliciously flavored craft revivalist gins and resurgent botanical whiskeys. We discovered the Botanery Barn when the caterer for our daughter's weddings recommended the Summertide Gin for her signature cocktail. When picking up our order, we stayed for dinner. I had the lavender lemonade with Summertide Gin, which was very refreshing with a generous pour. We really enjoyed the charcuterie and hummus platters for appetizers - appreciated the locally produced meats and cheeses, including Birchrun Hills Farm. We all ordered the Salmon Wellington for dinner and shared the brussel sprouts with miso glaze and pomegranate seeds. It was all so good that we couldn't resist dessert ... loved the chocolate mousse and carrot cake. Can't wait to go back!

Our night at your facility was PERFECT. We came to see your featured singer Mrs. Anakai Ney, whose voice is so lovely. Her sweet voice complimented the ambiance, which further complimented the good company of my dear friends, who I came with. And the service................... WOW. Your servers were genuinely attentive without being pesty. They were all so refreshing and attentive throughout our 2 hour stay. ANd the Food....................... WOW, Again, I did not come with any expectations, but I have not stopped talking about how good the food was. Gourmet and all home cooked to perfection. My one friend and I had the shrimp tacos which were the best I have ever tasted, and her husband had the salmon, which he too raved about. I will be back to enjoy all of the above again. Your restaurant was an hour away from my house, but it was worth every mile. Thank you to you and your entire staff. Mrs.Sharon Bellitto

The added room behind the bar needs to be modified so that it doesn't feel like your sitting in the storage room. They could start by eliminating the plexiglass in the window behind the bar so that everyone could hear the musical entertainment. The waiter and waitress were great

The food and drinks were delicious. Our server Shelby was pleasant and efficient. We had salmon, it was great and served very hot which I really like. Atmosphere is lovely. The tables by the door are a little cold every time someone goes in and out but no big deal. If you visit in winter bring a sweater. I wish they were open for dinner all week ??

Absolutely love this place. Some of the best burgers and shrimp tacos you will find aware. We live over an hour away and it is worth the drive! Michell and team never disappoint. Plus the smoked old fashion is outstanding. Take home a bottle of the custom cask bourbon.....you will not regret it!

Great Country location, beautifully restored Barn. Limited menu, but lots of interesting options. Our Empanadas were over cooked, but everything else was good. Good cocktails. Young servers were a bit too eager at times and we felt rushed. They close at 10pm, but we also felt rushed to leave by 9:30.

The drinks were a nice quality and portions were generous. The two appetizers, the empanadas and hummus were a hit with our group. The main courses were just okay. The happiest of the group ordered the bolognese pasta. The service and atmosphere were welcoming and warm. The distillery is always on our list to share with out of town visitors for its unique Chester county feel. Also consider adding a visit to Ryers Farm for the aged Equestrians while in the area.

We had the garlic chili nuts for an appetizer and the beef wellington. So delicious and the service was outstanding as usual. Chocolate old fashioned and an apple cider drink with their gin was phenomenal. A neighborhood gem!

Great gin place, it is rare in PA when gin & tonic are properly served… old world vibe (almost), drinks properly made, appetizers are good… Recommend… one personal request to the owners - dim the lights. But most definitely be back for more gin…

We have been coming here for some time now and love the barn and the vibe but noticed a change this time that makes my review slightly less than stellar. They have opened the back room area (near the distillery equipment) for dining and that is where we were seated for our 5:30 reservation on a very small two top which barely held our plates and drinks. It is a beautiful carved piece of wood the shape of Vermont but with large gaps, not great for offering a flat surface. The ante room is dark and chilly and we really felt cut off from the fun and festivities in the main dining area. Maybe more lights and some paintings or some kind of decor would help. I ordered the new burger with the Mac and cheese on top..which was surprisingly very spicy and detracted from the flavor of the burger. My husband ordered the manicotti and it was ok but too much cheese and the pasta overcooked. The appetizer of edamame was great as usual. Our drinks were smaller and had a little less kick than usual but still delicious. We love Brandywine Bistro but the changes are noticeable and slightly disappointing. We will come again though and will be sure to ask to sit in the front and try something different on the menu. We want to see them continue to grow and do well!

We pass this place a lot and always have wanted to stop in. So we finally stopped in and we were not greeted very well! Sat at the bar and was given menus. The person standing in front of us was making drinks and never even looked up to say hello or what can I get for you….we felt very uncomfortable and ignored. So we got up and vacated. Very disappointed and will not return! Very rude!

I can't say enough good things about this place. My wife and I love it and we dine here as often as we can. The food , the drink, the service and the people are all outstanding. Very friendly. One place you have to visit sometime in your life.
