Hoop and Barrel

"This restaurant is decorated very well and has a nice atmosphere. We had a reservation for 12. We arrived at noon and ordered drinks fairly soon after. Everyone didn't have their drinks until almost 12:40. The drinks were pretty and they tasted good. However, we waited almost an hour for food. We thought they were waiting to bring the food out until everyone's was done, but One of us got our food twenty minutes before everyone else. Then only half the table got their food (all of which was cold. Yes, it is supposed to be warm food). We had no silverware, and when we asked for some (because not all of it was finger food), they told us they needed to roll more. We waited as one of there servers sat at the bar and preparing silverware roles instead of just handing us the silverware so we could eat the food that had already taken an hour to get to us. When the second half of the table got their food, some of it was missing and a few of the orders were incorrect. (We did get a free plate of food when they accidentally made an extra I under that we had a large table and that there was a second large table that arrived before us, but it was a very disappointing experience. Everything is decorated nicely. The drinks taste good and the food LOOKS pretty. I can't speak for how it tastes because it was cold and cold breakfast food is not something I enjoy. The staff was friendly and the young man behind the bar of was kind enough to take a photo of the group for us. However, It feels like a place that cares more about the aesthetic."

"I actually was invited here for a party was a brunch party food was excellent love the egg rolls, very create it with the drinks. staff is very friendly and didn’t mind helping you and answering your questions and serving you. They never let your glass run empty."

"Atmosphere is great, but there are soooo many substantial better speakeasy’s in midland. No joke, worst cocktail I’ve ever had!"

"I only bought draft beers but watching the bartenders at work is entertaining in its self. I don’t think I have been to a more professional yet welcoming bar in Midland. The gentleman bartender was very courteous and putting in hard work looking like Tom Cruise in Cocktail. Very reasonably priced. A nice classy yet relaxes establishment I will patronize again. Adding to my review. Waiters seem to working very hard. Music is awesome. Hoop & Barrel knows their clientele. Nothing but 90s rock. Matches the atmosphere and patrons perfectly."

"New favorite bar in Midland. Have tried about half of the drink menu and have yet to find one that wasn't good. Food is fantastic tapas style and delicious. Bar staff are friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Will be back!"
