Craig LaBan Reviews Fork & Barrel


Craig LaBan visits Fork & Barrel, the serious beer outpost with the interesting food menu in East Falls.

[C]hef Peter Felton’s game-inspired menu in the downstairs tavern, with its long communal tables and medieval light, is as intriguing (at least in concept) as any bar’s in town. The $35 roast pheasant for two was reason in itself to come, the clove-brined bird roasted to a golden crisp and served with a knife plunged into its breast alongside a hunk of bread pudding moist with woodsy shiitake richness. I only wish there’d been more gravy to mop up its savory goodness.
