We really only had appetizers. Oil and bread, olives, and cheese plate. Had an Old fashioned, it was good. The atmosphere was fabulous. The service was phenomenal.

The Barrel Thief was a really awesome addition to an already great day after exploring Bainbridge island. We had excellent pours of neat whiskey, which was helped by the excellent service. I will say that the hummus we got was okay at best and the place definitely seemed understaffed. Would come back for sure.

Drinks are well served. Food is hit or miss. From appetizers we ordered hummus, charcuterie board and chef’s mushrooms. From dishes we ordered a hamburger. The hummus was too salty which was left uneaten, mushrooms were too mushy. You can’t mess up the charcuterie board. The burger and fries tasted good though.

The dim and moody atmosphere added to the overall ambiance in the best way possible. The cute decor, complete with charming chandeliers and vintage frames in the women’s restroom, added a lovely touch. I ordered the “Other Side” cocktail with Ford’s Gin, grapefruit, lemon, sherbet, and Pineau de Charentes, topped with Trevari Blanc de Blanc – it was absolutely delicious and refreshing. Don’t miss their happy hour from 4:00 to 6:00pm, Tuesday to Friday. Just be aware that they automatically add a 20% tip, as I mistakenly tipped extra without realizing the note on my receipt ♀️

This review is taking in consideration the food that we ate more than the general «feel» of the place which is actually really good . The service was really pleasant but I got a feeling that it was way understaffed , every drink order took about 20 minute to arrive (even for a beer ). Regarding the food , it was not bad , but it wasn’t great, at least compare to the menu prices . The fish was lacking flavors or texture, and the steak was just average . I wouldn’t complain if the dishes were less than 27$ a plate . We had a great time nevertheless and will be back for drinks , when the place is less crowded .

20% automatic gratuity. I wish they just built it into their prices instead of surprise you.

Barrel Thief is an absolute gem. I’ve gone there through a change of ownership, the pandemic and many other events and it has never managed to disappoint. It is, a tucked away phenomenal bar and restaurant.

We were told to stop in here for single mall scotch and the flights were awesome. The choices seem endless and they have everything I’ve ever wanted to try. The atmosphere is beautiful and service is quick and friendly.
