Barrel & Boar Creekside: A Trendy Destination for Breakfast, Brunch, and More

We chose Barrel and Boar for my son’s rehearsal dinner which took place last Friday night. We’re so glad we did. From start to finish, the process was easy. This was especially important to me since I was planning the rehearsal distance from afar - in Franklin, Tennessee. The interior space is casual and tasteful. Melissa handled all my email inquiries and was prompt with her thorough responses. We had 47 guests who fit perfectly in the back portion of the restaurant which overlooks the patio. The food was outstanding. Everything was delicious. We opted for pulled chicken, brisket, brussels sprouts, and their beautiful goat cheese salad. Melissa kindly worked with us to offer alcoholic beverages within reason. Coryn and Sunni were the servers for our party, and they couldn’t have been more pleasant and accommodating. The whole experience was a relaxed and happy addition to our glorious wedding weekend. Melissa allowed me to set up for the event on Friday at 11am, which was a big help since we had to be back in the area at 4pm for the rehearsal at Gahanna Sanctuary, the wedding venue. I have nothing but positive things to say about Melissa l, Coryn, Sunni, the chefs, and the entire staff at Barrel and Boar. It was a fabulous, turnkey experience, and we even ended up with leftovers to enjoy!

Great food, great service, great atmosphere! Located in Creekside Plaza, with plenty of outside seating by a fountain and the creek. Lots of great menu choices, featuring barbecue items but also some vegetarian options. Nice cocktail and wine list. Our server, Taylor was attentive and did a great job. The manager was quick to seat our group of 10, even though we arrived without a reservation.

Barrel & Boar is honestly one of my favorite spots in town! The vibe is always chill, the food’s great, and the service is awesome. Melissa and Bri are amazing behind the bar — super friendly, fun, and they always remember your favorite drink. Love coming here, it’s just one of those places that always feels good!

Our server, Lola, made the whole experience great! She was so kind and patient. I had a party of four with two kids and she was great with the kids and with us. Our service was excellent. She checked on us constantly, was courteous and enhanced the experience. The food was great. We had been here before and were pleased but this experience was so much better.

Had a delicious dinner last night! Served by the best Coryn! Drinks are always supper yummy & pretty to look at! Atmosphere is a 10/10 love the patio!!!

Made an unplanned stop and we were pleasantly surprised. My wife had the pulled pork, I had the pulled chicken. It was fantastic. Great service by Misty, too. 5 stars all-around!

Visiting the area and found Barrel and Boar. What a pleasant surprise!!! Great location, especially sitting outdoors. Great service and awesome food. Hush puppies are delicious. The brisket BLT is just great!!!! If you're in n the area, don't skip this restaurant!!!

For it being a slow night with what appears to be a full staff the food is coming out pretty slow. Definitely slower than I expected. That said our server is great, the food is good and the place is nice.
