Craft Kitchen blends open, industrial charm with cozy comfort. The high ceilings, warm lighting, and mix of bar and booth seating make it an inviting spot whether you're stopping in for lunch or lingering over dinner.
There's both indoor and outdoor dining, and everything felt clean, spacious, and relaxed.
We stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon, and seating was easy. Our server was attentive, friendly, and kept things moving smoothly. Parking is shared with nearby businesses, so while it was fine midweek, I imagine it could get tricky on a busy Friday night.
Their menu covers brunch, lunch, and dinner. You'll find a mix of sandwiches, pizzas, soups, charcuterie, and skillets. My friend ordered the sangria, while I went for their Pumpkin Pie Mocktail -- a seasonal blend of pumpkin, apple, and maple that was surprisingly refreshing and full of fall flavor. You could really taste both the pumpkin and apple coming through in each sip.
For my main, I ordered the Smokehouse Platter -- where you choose your meats (pick 1 for $18 up to 4 for $40). Every option comes with two sides and cornbread. I went with Pulled Pork and Spicy Pork Belly Burnt Ends, paired with mac and cheese and fries, plus an added side of Mexican Street Corn. The hickory wood smoking brought out a deep, rich flavor without overpowering the meats. The pork belly wasn't exactly spicy, but beautifully seasoned, tender, and perfectly charred on the ends.The pulled pork was also flavorful, smoky and moist texture.
Other meat selections include half chicken, jalapeño cheddar sausage, brisket (+$6), burnt ends (+$10), and a half rack of baby back ribs (+$14).
The mac and cheese deserves its own shout-out -- creamy, cheesy, and comforting without an upcharge like most places (and definitely not Kraft). The cornbread added a nice savory touch against the sweetness of the meats, while the street corn was perfectly grilled, juicy, and full of flavor.
My cousin ordered a burger and loved it -- juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. Portions are generous; honestly, my platter could have easily fed two. I enjoyed the mac and cheese so much I ordered another one to-go -- always a good sign.
Overall: Craft Kitchen delivers solid service, great flavors, and a relaxed atmosphere. The pricing feels fair for the portions, and everything tasted thoughtfully prepared. Perfect for casual meetups, family dinners, or laid-back nights out. Next time, I'm coming back for brunch.
