Friday Food Critic: The Bridge

The Bridge is a coffee shop in New Town that also sells fair trade goods. It's run several churches as an outreach ministry.

When it comes to restaurants, St. Charles has it covered.

We have some great local places that many would consider community gems; we have some mom-and-pop restaurants; and we certainly—for better or for worse—have plenty of chains lining our main streets.

But what we don't have is a consistent food critic to tell us what's good and what's not.

We could throw some money at a professional food critic, but that's not exactly what Patch is all about. We'd much rather know the opinion of the fine folks that eat there day-in and day-out.

It's your community. You eat the food. You tell us if it passes the mark.

That's why we are introducing The Friday Food Critic, where each week we will put a different restaurant on the chopping block. You tell us how you feel about it, what dishes are good, who has the best drink specials and so forth.

This week's restaurant is The Bridge, a neighborhood coffee shop that also serves as a ministry for several churches. Read more about The Bridge here. 

To review simply click on their name. You'll be directed toward their community listing in our places directory, where you can rate them on a five-star system or write a personal review.

At St. Charles Patch, we believe your words of wisdom are better than any food critic. Leave a note, tell us what you think.
