The Bartonville Store

Food outstanding
Well thought out small wine list
Band was great overall a fantastic entertainment value

Menu was limited for Dinner, much better for lunch/brunch. Food took a long time to come out to the table.

Great place to meet friends and enjoy live music..

Chef Michael and the whole crew do an outstanding job.....this is our go to place for sure!

We had a great time. Music was fantastic! Looking forward to visiting again.

The food was absolutely amazing. Live music was awesome. Drinks were very good. Overall great experience. Will definitely be back.

We've been several times, primarily coming for the music which is excellent. The food and service are very good. Glad to have this venue close to home.

This was our 2nd "special dinner" at the Store and it was excellent The wine pairings with the food are memorable and the evening provides an wonderful event to meet new couples and be able to converse and laugh throughout the evening. You always enjoy listening to the wine sponsor and the head chef as they explain their choices. I highly recommend the Bartonville Store for these special events or the music nights or for the any night out for great food.

We went for the Banfi wine tasting event. The chef went above and beyond to make the menu outstanding. We loved it!!

Ate here for Sunday brunch with family. The food and service was excellent. Only complaint was the live music was too loud for Sunday brunch and we were on the front patio. I can understand the live music for dinner but the venue seems a little small for a live band.

Love going to Bartonville Store! Always a treat! Thank you for the perfect way to spend the day listening to live music, having a nice meal, and spending time with folks who make you feel welcomed.

Such a fun time and great service! We'll be back and recommend to anyone wanting to have a memorable fun evening.

We always love eating here. The food is delicious, the service is exceptional, and there was live music on this visit. We were celebrating our daughter's birthday and they gave her a piece of cake and sang.

Great service! We had a really nice time.

Love this place! Great good and music. Super fun date night.

The Bartonville Store always delivers - great food, tasty drinks and first rate entertainment.

First time here! Quaint little spot that I am sure we will return to. Service was a little slow and inconsistent but it seemed more like a staffing issue vs a competency issue. We weren’t in a rush so it didn’t affect our experience. Sit outside if the weather permits!

Bourbon tasting

Excellent food and service at the old forester event, can’t wait for the next event

Fantastic private event evening. The Chef's menu was impeccably plated and wonderfully flavorfull! The drink pairings were perfectly matched. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

On Wednesday evening, Sept 22, 2021, I had the second opportunity to enjoy the live music and GREAT food at Bartonville Store & Jeter’s Meat Shop (this time I reserved a table with OpenTable!)! Along with the band, Liquid Chicken Combo, I enjoyed my Pulled Pork Sandwich, along with a side of Creamy Coleslaw and sweet iced tea. For dessert, I had their Tres Leche Cheesecake with strawberries! ALL was delicious and very enjoyable!

You can’t go wrong here, the food is always great and the atmosphere is so fun! We don’t leave until they turn the lights on!!

Neither of us liked the ribs. They had a taste we both described as grainy.. The French fries were excellent. We will probably come back, but certainly not for the ribs. We chose to sit outside. There was a great deal of traffic noise.

Great little “hidden” gem. Has a feel of days gone by, with modern food, great cocktails, and a well-equipped bar. There’s live music later on Saturday nights.

We ate on the porch and had attentive service from a masked waitress. If you’re in the area, this is worth a stop.

First off, the food was decent. Street tacos, a hamburger, and nachos were quite good. Service was OK - nothing to write home about. They brought the wrong drinks to our table. The kicker - we were near the band. Impossible to hear. The wait staff came and told us that if we listen to the band, there was a $15 charge. In the loudness? none of us caught that it was a $15 per person cover charge. We figured this out only after we had tipped the band quite heavily, and our bill came. $60 in charged and $30 i’m tips for the band. No thanks, the music was not THAT good.

Great food and atmosphere! Will be back for sure!

The food was great, everything else was not. We went for brunch and they had live music. That’s normally great but they had it turned up so loud we couldn’t even talk across the table. It also took 25 mins to order our food. Then they missed part of that. Then they messed up the ticket. Def won’t be going back.

Seated on back patio for our “date” reservations for the “more quiet atmosphere”. We were crammed in corner with a large loud crew up against us. We couldn’t even sit in our chair comfortably. Then 8 more people showed up to sit with the large group and they crammed in to their seats. They were SO LOUD, obnoxious, drinking, cursing, and kept bumping into us and asking us to stand up so they could squeeze by. Our nachos took almost 30 minutes but tasted good. Our drinks were surprisingly small for the price but tasted good. Our dinner came out wrong and we had to send back but once it came out, tasted ok. Our waitress was kind but seemed very overwhelmed by the large group.

Our overall experience was not good but mostly because of the rowdy group of 16+ people that crammed into a space more suitable for 6-8. We might try it again as all of the food on the menu looked inviting so would like to see if we have a different experience next time. I’ve never given a poor review of a restaurant so I’d like to give them the benefit of the doubt. We might try it again...who knows...

It is always a great time at The Bartonville Store. Do know that they have pretty large bands play some evenings and the venue is small. If you want a quieter dinner go before 8pm.
