The James Kitchen & Bar

Service was excellent! Our waiter was lively and had great recommendations. He even bartended one of our drinks. Our drinks ordered: Cobbler’s Mule-simple and good. Meet Me at Midnight, and Baby Giraffe-slightly sweet and fruity. The Perfect Wife, always ordered by someone in the group-fan favorite. The fries were delicious! And the cauliflower taco was probably my favorite out of the three I ordered. The James: There is a flight of stairs to get to the sitting area and bar, there has been space available each time we have visited. We have never been on game day though… The James is not exactly family friendly, but also not not family friendly. We have had our son (15) join us here for a late lunch early dinner. He devoured a pizza and wings. But I wouldn’t say it is a true family fri

Excellent spinach dip. Great drinks. The Baby Pink Giraffe is tasty. And The James Old-fashioned is decadent with its large, single ice cube. If you don't like the taste of meat, then don't order the veggie burger. Maybe it's the sauce? The French dip is good. All-together rather over-priced.

Great place to grab lunch or dinner. Located upstairs as you walk in the building. They offer a lovely patio to enjoy in the warmer months. The bartenders and wait staff were all so friendly! We had a great time!

I went to The James for the first time last night and am feeling a bit conflicted. The food was terrible but my server was a sweetheart. I waited for about 5 minutes without anyone acknowledging me (the place was not busy) and just as I was about to leave, a guy in a flannel shirt just told me to sit wherever. So I did. A server eventually came over and I ordered a vodka soda and the Idaho Nachos. The description made them sound pretty mid, but I was in the mood for potatoes. The food looked pretty good (as pictured) when it arrived. But the potatoes were room temperature, which is a bad sign for any type of loaded fries. And despite the toppings, the whole thing just tasted like a mountain of salt. No other flavors. I took two bites and left it alone. It was very, very bad. My server c

The burgers were amazing and the sweet potato fries were spectacular. Unfortunately it was incredibly loud outside under the tented area, our server kind of forgot about us and we didn't get water for a long time, and the food took a long time to come out. And that was understandable since there was a basketball game that night and a play. I would recommend this place but just realize it's going to take longer on an event night.
