A Wonderful neighborhood bar&grille. Very unassuming pub hidden in the Paoli Shopping Center (to the right of True Value) with quality bar food, plus a team of friendly and attentive staff. I will for sure come back and try some more tasty bites at Baxter's!
Their food is always outstandingly prepared, fresh and presented perfectly. The help is friendly and efficient. A very warm atmosphere.

Many menu options and all were delicious. Suzy, our bartender was excellent as usual.

We Love the Reasturant have been visiting the restaurant for Years!
A reliable, comfy neighborhood spot. We always have a pleasant time here.
Our favorite restaurant forTuesday night dinners. While enjoying their delicious meals we also have fun trying to guess answers to trivia quizzo game in adjacent bar area. Service is excellent and menu choices abundant.
The waitress, Janet, provided us with excellent service and always has a wonderful smile on her face. Baxter's is a fun place to enjoy Quizzo on Tuesday evenings.

I love liver and seldom get it. My husband loves steak. The waitress informed us on Wednesdays, there are steak specials and liver nightly. We will return. The liver was very tender.

Server was excellent. Food quality good, but portions extremely small--three bites for an order of quiche!! Won't order that again.

Good mussels and friendly service staff. The steak is surprisingly good at the $25-30 price point.
In spite of the snowy sleet we managed to get to Baxter's, which is high on our favorites list for a delightful dinner last evening. Our caring server Janet made the meal even more comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommend their seafood choices like mussels, crab cakes, and salmon entrees.
It was an off night - service was very good and everyone enjoyed their dinner.
Always a nice meal there with good service. We both love their snapper soup...best in our opinion.

We were celebrating my birthday on a Tuesday night and it was some kind of trivia game night. We stayed and had a blast. Nice crowd and very good food.

All the food us freshly made and high quity first the money. The atmosphere is a small, quaint tavern with a private dining area. All the staff know us and what we like. The menu is diverse, so it would appeal to any age group. They never rush us. The bar has a different event every night. Wednesday is steak night. Which we do once a month. All the help are quality people, friendly, anticipate your needs before asking. We have been going here regularly once a week for 8 years, at least. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
Over-priced for the quality. Nothing special or memorable.
We were well served, our reservation request was exactly followed, food was good as always, lots of selections on the menu, and always great service. Having checked in advance, they welcomed the service dog which was part of our group.
comfortable atmosphere, good service, attentive, excellent quality food
A favorite local area restaurant for us. Among our favorites are mussels, salmon. and prime ribs. As we are not in favor of sides listed along with many specific menu entree listings such as mashed motatoes and cooked spinach, always appreciate that they offer a selection of alternative veges such as baked potato, rice, brocolli, asparagus, snapped peas etc when vege substitutions are verbally requested. Desserts are wonderful. Highly recommend.
The owner is always present, personable and visits each table. The food us made to order, steak night on Wednesdays and prepared beautifully. It's a small faculty with a very active bar and a small restaurant. They have something every night for entertainment. Ex quizmo, band, kerioki, etc. They all know us when we c ome in. Excellent restauran
We didn't even know about Baxter's until seeing it on Restaurant.com. We totally enjoyed our meal and will definitely be returning!
First time I tried their Thai stirfry chicken entree and it was delicious. Husband loved their mussels followed by shrimp entree that comes with two sides. Thanks restaurant.com for originally guiding us to this gem of a neighborhood restaurant.
We Love Baxter’s we have been going there for years , Food is always perfect very consistent and a very Friendly place to visit. Help is kind and very friendly??! Keep up the Great job!
We enjoy Baxter's as the food and service is very good.
SEAFOOD AND VEGETABLES WERE REALLY GOOD. BREAD WAS DELICIOUS
Server was attentive and friendly. Food good - salad a bit skimpy but overall a nice relaxed dinner.Atmosphere quiet and nice.
The Food was wonderful along with their service. Nice selection on menu and not too pricey. Will go back again soon.
Wait staff was excellent. Enjoyed the wedge salad plus good decaf coffee
Taco salad was great. All meals cooked to perfection and tasty.
The food was great. The waitress was however little confused with the restaurant.com certificate. She hadn't used one before. Then when she brought the bill, she did not deduct the certificate price and had to redo our billing. Guessing the server was new. Still learning.
top quality food and friendly staff owner manager always greets you
We both had prime rib and it was very good. The veggies could have been a little more "done", and were not 100% hot, but overall we enjoyed it.
Am particularly fond of their grilled fish entrees. My husband says they have the most tender and largest mussels offered locally. Their carrot cake desert is wonderful. Highly recommend this neighborhood treasure.
server was very good. My chicken Caesar salad was great as always
Room was cozy staff was friendly and attentive. Food was tasty and menu had a nice variety. Can’t wait to return.0
My husband and I really enjoy eating here. The food is always delicious, prepared to order, and there are ample menu selections including daily specials. Much praise for the chef and our thoughtful server Janet. AND, we do appreciate that once a month we can use a restaurant.com certificate thanks to a caring management.
Eagles hand was in that's a good thing BUT staff forgot about tending to us hungry folk in the room without the tvs
Excellent food.
Excellent food friendly service
Enjoyed the food and menu choices. He had an entree, steak and I had a monte Cristy sandwich.
Food is always prepared well and tastes delicious. Our server Janet is super nice and always helpful. We look forward to our next visit.
Tasteless meatloaf, cold mashed potatoes, colder broccoli, congealed gravy
food exceptional, owner very welcoming, server always great, immediate host service
Very nice atmosphere and food with great entertainment on Thursday nights
Very fond of this neighborhood restaurant. Delicious and plentiful menu choices. Helpful customer-oriented servers.
A friendly neighborhood bar and grill — food always good . Service also good. Can be a little noisy but not as bad as other places!!
Excellent service finally!!
Almost stopped because service got so bad for a few weeks. Would rate a 5 again after yesterday.our service was excellent.
Good burger
Service excellent as always, food on scale 1-10 was a 9.
Lobster salad was excellent, as I am the husband she brought 1/2 of it home to. Large and generous portions, too
My companion's Mussels Baxter appetizer and his entree shrimp scampi were delicious and prepared perfectly. My spinach salad and salmon entree with teriyaki sauce were wonderful. A gourmet restaurant with excellent chefs at reasonable prices. The key lime pie for dessert was a treat.
Food was delicious snd the service was great.
Appetizer Mussels were plentiful, large and very tender. The dinner special Striped Bass was delicious accompanied by our selection of baked potato and steamed broccoli side dishes.
Very good food & excellent service
Our server was very good with explaining the various menu choices. We did not feel rushed
Food is blend, this is the very basic pub food. Nothing fundamentally wrong just no excitement and still a >$50 despite $15 off from restaurant.com coupons.
Overall, a great dinner and wonderful experience!
Excellent service; good food; reasonable prices.
Crab cakes were very good. Prime Rib was also good, but not very hot when it arrived at the table.
Server was friendly and took good care of us. Everything was good, but though the menu said homemade gravy on the hot roast beef sandwich, it tasted more like jar gravy. It could use more flavor.
Cocktails/wine were good. My husband had crab cakes. Said they had a very good flavor. Came with fries and Cole slaw. Meal plated nicely and was plentiful. I had oysters and chicken salad. Chicken salad all white meat and 3 large fried oysters. Again plated attractively and was plentiful. Good experience. Will go back.
Food very good excellent value service
The food at Baster's is always excellent. The scallops are the best anywhere.
Oysters did not taste right
The food was delicious.
Great burgers, and very nice staff.
Great local feel with longtime roots.
Horrible service. Apparently you were out of green beans (the side i requested) and instead of informing me and asking what i would like instead the waitress stated "i picked the next green vegetable" and gave me broccoli which i do not like. At the end of my meal it was the only thing left on my plate and she said nothing. Then when i told her i had a restaurant.com coupon she took my phone and walked away behind some wall and came back two seconds later not holding my phone stating she "had to get the owner" and walked the other direction and did not return with my phone for at least 5 minutes. That is absolutely unacceptable. You do not take someones property and disapear with it and then wait on tables in front of me while my phone is no where to be seen. Its a shame because the food was delicious. This was literally the most disrespectful service i have ever had at a restaurant.
Best Chicken Marsala main course on the Main Line. Tuesdays Lobster Night AND Wednesdays Steak Night are very enticing as well. This is a marvelous restaurant for fine dining. Moreover, the Separate Bar area is great meeting place for professionals.
The food is delicious and always served with care. Mussels are exceptionally well prepared, always tender and of highest quality. I am partial to the salmon and my husband adores their filet mignon.
Food was delicious, served hot and swiftly. Server was delightful and helpful.
Food was average. Meatloaf was sorta ok. Green beans with it were tasting like they were cooked with fish!!! Could not eat them! AND I love to eat greenbeans! BOO HOO! Mashed potatoes were very good! Will come back to give them another chance and we would like to try something else on the menu.
ast service, friendly servers, good food
Everything was ok not outstanding but adequate. Menu selection good, prices reasonable and service ok. Decor lacking could be spruced upa bit.
We felt a little rushed and my husband would have liked the waitress to have been a little more attentive to refilling his drink.
After being seated, we waited almost 15 minutes for any service.
We had a wonderful dinner with attentive staff. We had a rather early dinner due to an appointment however it was nice to be able to relax and enjoy knowing we didn't need to rush. We will return.
good food good service
Food variety and quality, plus excellent service in a very pleasant setting for a reasonable price can't be beat.
Overall everything is very good, bread was excellent. However the soup for $11 could have been a little better
Generally Baxter's is one of our favorite spots. We love the calves'liver. This time it was overcooked and dry so we were disappointed. The Nachos were fabulous
I was disappointed that my appetizer and entrée came at the same time. To easy to get cold food.
The food tasted weird. I am not going back.
We were there for several hours from 5 pm to 10 pm. starting in bar for happy hour then moved to dining for dinner. Loved the musician as well. We loved waitress Jolene. Also how wait staff helps each other to serve people quickly and efficiently.
We loved Jolene. She was fantastic. Food was good. Liked music in bar
We sat a the bar. It was a birthday dinner. Wonderful people, wonderful service, wonderful food.
Excellent job by our server , Joshua !!! And as always, great food.
It was very nu=ice and pleasent
it took 45 minutes for our food to come after we ordered. It was very cold. I wore my coat and the people at the table near us also had their coats on. The food was good to eat.
great food and service.
Our server was attentive and our food was well prepared and served hot.
Typical bar fare cooked well.
Quesadilla very weak, hardly any chicken, cut in tiny chunks, very little vegetables, extremely disappointing.
NICE AMBIANCE, GOOD MENU CHOICES (WE ENJOYED OURS), EXCELLENT SERVICE & ATTENTION TO OUR SATISFACTION. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG.
Excellent specialty drink choices, well prepared and tasty seafood (our selection), and very good service. Will definitely go back!

Menu was great to look at at. Execution was very poor. Food was eh. Sauces were all tasteless and too thick. With a little attention the restaurant could do way better.
great lunch menu selection
A great place to catch up with friends in a quiet Monday atmosphere
Nice atmosphere. Large bar with nice selection of tap beers. Great for the entire family.
My friends wanted to sit in the bar area - I prefer the quieter area.We love the Calves Liver - but the onions were not sauteed as usual.Except for those two items I would have rated Excellent
service was great but food was not what we expected taste wise
service a little slow.
Our server was friendly and attentive to our every need.
Food was excellent and the staff was very friendly and attentive.
We went on Sundy evening so it was very quie and comfortable. The service was excellent and my husband and I enjoyed the food. We even shared a dessert which we do not usually have.
We loved Baxter's. Will recommend to our friends. Waiter was very attentive and food was delicious!!
