Went to the pantry, Tyler with friends on Wednesday night. The place was empty. The fall decor walking in and the interior of the restaurant were beautiful. We ordered a Reuben, cheeseburger, veggie flatbread, and a pre-chicken sandwich. Drinks for a Coke, a beer,and a half-price bottle of wine that was a great value at $17. The bill with tip came to $170. I thought that was a lot of money for four diner, sandwiches and fries. My husband won’t be back but I might go with friends for brunch. The brunch menu looks interesting
