| - I went to the wren with a few friends after work. They have a great selection of craft beer, but unfortunately they only list their options on a board behind the bar, which can make things difficult when you're seated at a table. They really should have a beer menu at each of the tables. Their food menu is flimsy and simply a sheet of paper covered in plastic, which also seems to cheapen the experience. They really seem to have a vendetta against menus! Weird...
I had the colonel mustard pulled pork sandwich and it was good enough, but nothing extraordinary. The fries were pretty tasty though. No one from my group loved their food, but no serious complaints to report. Just keep your expectations low.
The server was pretty laid back and well informed and seemed like a pretty nice guy. He helped us pick out our beers. The atmosphere was nice with lots of wood, fun decor, and family friendly. There were kids in pyjamas running around, and they were pretty funny/entertaining - I think they might have been one of the owner's brood. They have communal seating in the middle and separate booths and tables at the side, so you can engage with new people if you're in the mood or keep to yourself if you prefer.
I thought it was a bit overpriced and not exactly a place I'd go to on the regular, but fun enough to give a shot. They'll have to up their game once more competition sets up, but the area is still up and coming.
