"The team behind Wagener Terrace hangout Berkeley’s wanted their second restaurant, the Archer, to have the same neighborly vibe, and it seems on track to achieving that. The bar is welcoming and full of locals trying cocktails like the Ambiguous Bird (a take on the Jungle Bird) or the summery Talking in Cursive with gin, peach, tomato, and basil. Come for the drinks, but stick around to try the burger or duck frites." - Erin Perkins
"The couple behind Wagener Terrace hangout Berkeley’s recently opened their second restaurant, the Archer. They want it to have the same neighborhood vibes but raise the stakes with a full bar and fine dining-level comfort plates. Chef Paul Farmer (formerly of Three Sirens), puts out plates like duck frites, baked oysters, beef stroganoff, chicken liver mousse, and chilled crab dip." - Erin Perkins
"The Archer is a buzzy neighborhood tavern in East Central that’s good for happy hour, dinner, and even late night (the kitchen stays open until 11pm). Some standouts include crispy fried eggplant plated next to clouds of whipped buttermilk, the Archer salad with crispy chickpeas that shines because of its textural complexity, and a burger with a hearty layer of parmesan cream and golden shoestring fries. Sitting at the bar is the move, especially for hanging out with a Freezer Door martini and talking with your neighbors about everything coming out of the open kitchen. It won’t be long before this is a Downtown staple." - jai jones, emily yates

"Neighborhood spot the Archer has one of the messiest burgers around, but it’s good fun. The patty is covered in Parmesan cream AND fancy sauce, so you might need extra napkins, but there’s also a mountain of fries to sop up the extra goodness. The burger is only $10 after 10 p.m. Best for: When you don’t mind having sauce on your face" - Erin Perkins
