Forge - Ben Wheeler

Great food and great drinks! The staff wore Halloween costumes and we had a blast. I tried the Chicken Americana. It was amazing and delicious! My wife had the BBQ salad. It has tons of meat on it and she said it was delicious. I had a copperhead (margarita), also great. Look forward to coming here everytime I'm in the area.

Super quirky and fun menu with many types of options to choose from. Love the vibe and atmosphere. Love this artsy little town, Ben Wheeler. Richard and I had the brunch today.....Amiga and the cosmic mushroom. Both were amazing!

What a fun treat of a place to happen upon. Ben Wheeler, TX has it figured out with this place. Outdoor seating options abound, this is where you want to spend your fall afternoons. Exceptional menu including NUMEROUS vegetarian and vegan options. Enjoy the fried avocado, shrimp stuffed mushrooms, and deviled eggs for starters. From sandwiches to pizza to burgers there is a entree for everyone. Job well done, Forge. Cheers!

I had heard several good things about the Forge and needed to try it myself. I ordered the brisket tacos and they where not terrible, but the 12 oz ribeye,(that was 34$ , my buddy ordered was something vile altogether. The sheer smell that was coming from it was nauseating like a wet dog playing in a pond all day. I watched in grotesque anticipation as he took one bite, and spit it back up. I wish I could write a better review but I was sorely disappointed in the food.

Fantastic out-of-the-way bar and grill that's not really out-of-the-way in Ben Wheeler. It just feels that way. Great country feel. Amazing friendly people! The rustic interior is part of the charm. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu including breakfast. The pizzas are terrific. Plenty of options. The blue cheese chips are the perfect munchy snack to go on with the cold beer until you decide on your meal. You can order ahead and pick it up if you don't have the time to eat in. The live music is a plus and the outdoor space is really cool. It's only 30-35 minutes from Tyler. It is well worth the trip!
