    We’ve been here a few times for lunch and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is great, the food is excellent, and the drinks are very reasonably priced considering the location and quality of the venue. Today my wife had the gluten-free beef burger with a side of fries, while I had the Reuben on rye. The Reuben was honestly the best I’ve ever tasted. The burger itself was delicious, although the gluten-free bun wasn’t toasted and was a little too soft, and there was slightly too much sauce. Overall, a fantastic place with great value and consistently good food. Highly recommended and we’ll definitely be back.

    We chose Cru Bar to celebrate my husband’s birthday because we wanted somewhere with great food and a fun atmosphere. From the moment we arrived the staff were fantastic and made sure we felt special. It was just the 2 of us and my husband has had recent surgery so we really appreciated all the attention and wonderful service. Our meals were amazing and we will definitely be back soon. Thank you Cru Bar for making his night so special.
