Bartenders were free to take shots themselves as Bruno also chugged down bottles of beer while personally manning the kitchen. The furniture inside the bar were mostly torn and neglected, and the kitchen was just as equally messy. Plush was situated right across the historic Keswick Theatre yet the bar failed to attract the pre and post show crowd into its fold thanks to its bland and uninviting exterior. The only option left on the table was a call for Jon Taffer and Bar Rescue. And call for that reservation.Now Bruno was left with a growing stack of bills, a dilapidated bar, and uncontrollable employees. If you want dinner, highly suggest a reservation. Definitely a convenient choice if you're headed across the street for an event (or even after). I did have two different beers (out of four different) which I noticed had a few floaties from the lines.

They have a full bar, moderate (not top shelf) wine choices, and a decent array of draft beers. They had a mac-n-cheese appetizer which was good. One appetizer was a baked brie, but it wasn't melted as much as it should have been, and was simply a small brie wheel that was heated up served along with some thin sliced crusty Italian bread. The table also wasn't completely stable, so we had to be slightly careful once our drinks were delivered and while eating.

Unfortunately the backrest wasn't fully secured to the seat, so when our neighbors sat forward and back (which they did a lot), so did we. We were seated in a booth where the seating on one side backed up to another booth (shared 'backrest'). There were two servers for all the tables, and our server definitely was working quickly. maybe we were the only party of 3 at 6:30). I was asked if we had a reservation, said yes at 6:30, and with a glance at the sheet we were seated (hadn't mentioned the name on the reservation. The other tables had 'reserved' signs on them, and I did see the host tell some people who were attempting to self-seat that they were reserved. The bar area was full, and the perhaps 80% of the 12~14 tables/booths were full. Arrived at 6:20 for our 6:30 reservation. I wasn't that optimistic we actually had a reservation. Being a Friday night, with an event at the nearby theater, and the shortness of the call. Finally just before hanging up they asked the time. It was a quick conversation, they took my name and number of people.

No one contacted me via email or phone 36 hours later, so decided I had better phone. Initially tried to book a reservation using their online form. Noticed on their website they now have a menu, so gave it a go. Had tried it a few years back, but at that time it was only drinks and no real menu. Yes, the Keswick Tavern may say there's an hour wait but Plush is worth every consideration.įor dinner before a recent local Friday evening concert at the Keswick Theater, decided to give Plush a try. Before tip the bill was an even 37 bucks. The fare was good and the prices were better.

Our server was efficient, courteous and attentive. The burger had all kinds of matter mixed in: garlic and BBQ spice among other things. All three of us settled on the Big Fat Burger served with Waffle Fries. My son opted for water, I jumped on the $2 Rolling Rock 16oz can and my buddy settled for a $3 Yeungling pint. Also offered are Skittles and Gummi Bear shots. The Martini list was longer than the food list. Buildings look to have been built pre WWII. Plush is located in Keswick Village a trip back to suburban Americana. Artwork and eclectic matter graced the walls. A popular destination mentioned an hours wait and we decided to pursue options and decided on Plush. In town for a concert at the Keswick with my son and a buddy.
