What a great experience at Archival. Friday night, party of 6. We were able to get a reservation for 5:45pm. The live music was really good. The place was hopping. Everyone was having fun! Our server Meg was was amazing. So friendly available and helpful making decisions because all the food sounded so good. The fried mushrooms and calamari apps were perfectly deep fried. Our favorite meals were the nachos and the quesadilla. But everything was 💯. Can’t wait to visit when the weather is warmer and we can visit the outside area…it’s huge. The dogs will love it too!!

Our group's initial visit to this establishment proved disappointing, leading us to advise against it. We encountered several issues: the mimosas were overly simplistic, resembling plain orange juice, and our request to omit anchovies from the Caesar salad was met with the revelation that it was pre-mixed in the dressing, offering limited alternatives. Additionally, the chicken and waffles was excessively charred, comparable to the taste of burnt popcorn. Considering the lengthy wait for our meals, despite the restaurant not being crowded, we decided not to request a remake, which would have further extended our wait. The lack of attention to detail was also evident in the staff's casual demeanor, exemplified by the bartender's choice of wearing sunglasses inside the restaurant, which contributed to a subpar service experience. Our check for two people was over $60 which is outrageous for the quality we received. Has great potential but definitely room for improvement.

I really wish I could say I had a positive experience here as I had heard so many good things and the food was overall good, however our service left everything to be desired.
Me and my wife felt invisible to our server, they had completely forgotten her drink until she asked about it again 45 minutes later, the amount of time it took for our appetizers to arrive only to have our entrees arrive 2 minutes later.
Our server only seemed to have time for large groups and not us. I’ve worked the service industry in one capacity or another for quite some time and this is one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. If you are a large group of people I’m sure you’ll have a great time if you are a couple on a date do yourself a favor and go anywhere else.

Another good experience. Food and beer are different than most places. Which is a good thing. Meghan R was our server today and despite a packed house she was attentive and pleasant.

These folks do a nice job, ESPECIALLY with the beer. Rock solid selection in all types of beer and I'd call it a can't miss location for beer lovers. The food is good but not great yet. i believe they have a chef and the menu changes every time we go there, but just lacks consistency right now. Very good service and excellent atmosphere overall. 4 stars and climbing....

This place is AWESOME! They were super busy, but the staff, especially our server Meg, did an incredible job and took our orders with a smile and great demeanor.
The food and beer were excellent, two flights and not a bad drink amongst them.
The building and grounds are beautiful!
I can’t wait to come back here again!
