Crema's Take
“Batch & Brine excels as a relaxed spot to linger with kids and dogs on the patio, where the casual vibe and solid burgers and sliders justify the slower service. The food quality is genuinely inconsistent—some days the brussels sprouts and ahi bowls shine, other times items arrive dried out or overseasoned—so temper your expectations for a casual neighborhood lunch rather than a culinary destination. If you're looking for a dog-friendly, family-oriented gathering spot with decent traditional coffee and decent food, it works; if you need reliability and efficiency, skip it.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.

See all on Google →Food was decent but wanted to leave a review to say how shocked I was the restrooms do not have a changing table and are very tight. Very difficult to change a child here. They have high chairs and kids menus it made zero sense. Edit to add: I checked both women’s stalls and…
Batch and Brine truly disappointed. The burger was extremely dried out, had no flavor and looked frozen. Thankfully, the staff removed it from the bill. The crispy brussels sprouts we so over seasoned, they were black - very little taste of brussels. The pork slider was dry,…
We had a very solid lunch here outside on the patio with the kids. Burgers and sliders were very solid, good atmosphere, a nice spot for younger ones of dogs outside. We typically do Headlands when the weather’s good, but the food here’s likely a little better, we liked the kids…
Food was really good. The sliders, tacos, salad, ahi bowl, and drinks were all delicious. Even the Brussel sprouts were great. The service was pretty slow. It was a Tuesday night, and there were a max of 10 tables with people. There’s no reason it should take 20min for a drink.
Stopped in for dinner with my daughter and her friends (all teen girls). Just a short wait (under 20 minutes) since we wanted indoor seating. The menu was solid and there were lots of choices. The brussel sprouts were awesome, as was the giant pretzel for apps. I didn't get pics…
