At least, that’s been the case for thousands of folks who bill Bricks & Barrels as their favorite West Virginia restaurant.
Named "Charleston's Favorite Restaurant" on numerous occasions, Bricks & Barrels has a loyal following. Is it the food? Yes, that's part of the draw.
Top-rated vintage wine from regions across the world. Twelve varieties of local craft beer. Expertly-mixed cocktails using rare bourbon and scotch varieties.
Is it the vibe? Yes, that's also a factor. Edgy. Eclectic. Upscale. Unique. Local. Rustic. Historic. Modern. Professional. Upbeat. Fine dining without the stuffiness.
How can all this combine into one trendy space? It might be hard to picture, but it works! And what ties it all together are the rounded, recessed semi-private dining areas that are built to mimic wine or whiskey barrels.
Reservations can be weeks out for a coveted spot in one of these unique eating areas that seat up to eight diners. (Sometimes they are available on much shorter notice, though, so call anyway, even if you can't wait that long.)
These eat-in barrel alcoves, as well as the massive old safe that fronts the walk-in keg cooler behind the bar, the old freight elevator gates that make a rustic-yet-modern railing around the stage area, the pulleys from the antique elevator system refashioned into lighting rigs, the bar that's made of reclaimed wine barrel wood, the main dining room tables supported by actual whiskey barrels, and more create an environment and an ambiance that's the talk of the town.
Pair that with the amazing food we already mentioned, and it's no wonder Bricks & Barrels is always Charleston's top pick for their favorite West Virginia restaurant!
Reservations aren't required, but they are strongly encouraged.
