Our New Favorite Haunt: The Lodge by Two Robbers in Bella Vista

My friends and I are always on the lookout for a new spot that nails the perfect combination of great drinks, delicious food, and a fantastic atmosphere. Let me tell you, we absolutely found it. We just checked out The Lodge, the brand-new restaurant and cocktail bar from the local vodka soda company Two Robbers Spirits Co., and we are already planning our next visit. Located at 738 South 11th Street in Bella Vista, this place is a total gem.

From the moment we walked in, we loved the vibe. It’s stylish yet comfortable, with a cozy, modern lodge feel that lives up to its name. It’s the kind of place that’s perfect for a casual weeknight dinner but also feels special enough for a weekend night out.

As fans of Two Robbers’ canned vodka sodas, we were excited to see how they would translate that into a full cocktail bar, and they did not disappoint. Of course, their signature vodka sodas are a highlight, but the menu goes far beyond that. We tried a few of their other cocktails, including a perfectly made martini, and everything was expertly crafted. It’s a fantastic spot for anyone who appreciates a well-made drink.

The food menu is packed with elevated pub fare that perfectly complements the drinks. We decided to share a few things, and everything was a hit. The burger was juicy and cooked perfectly, and the fish and chips were crispy, flaky, and everything you’d want them to be. It’s clear they are serious about their food, making it much more than just a bar with snacks.

What we loved most about The Lodge was the complete package. The service was friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was buzzing but still relaxed enough to have a good conversation, and both the food and drinks were top-notch. It’s a fantastic addition to the Bella Vista and South Street area.

If you’re looking for a new go-to spot with a great bar program and delicious, satisfying food, you have to check out The Lodge. We loved it, and I have a feeling it’s going to become a staple in the Philly dining scene very quickly.
