Melt Bar & Grilled

Have you looked far and wide for a restaurant willing to venture outside the box and be creative with coveted cuisine? Well look no further then Melt Bar & Grilled in Lakewood. I mean, raise your hand if you love grilled cheese!!!! Those of you awesome enough to raise your hands, belong to a group of Americans whose beloved past time is the oh-so-delicious grilled cheese (alias name: toasted cheese).


Melt has outdone itself by providing a wide selection of grilled cheese sandwiches for the loving child in all of us (and you get to order them off old vinyl record albums, how fun is that).

I visited this quirky and eclectic establishment this past Tuesday night with my fellow foodie Amy for a beer and some comfort food. Not only did we both thoroughly enjoy our sandwich selections, but also were ecstatic about the beer list. I washed my North Coast Shore sandwich (which featured homemade crab cakes, wilted garlic spinach, roasted red peppers and herbed cream cheese) with Agave Wheat Ale made by Breckenridge Brewery in Colorado. Amy enjoyed a Mushroom Melt sandwich that featured fresh garlic portabellas, caramelized onions, melted provolone and washed it down with tasty Strongbow Cider Ale.


The sandwiches are made on thick slices of sourdough bread grilled to perfection then served up with heaping mounds of hand-cut french fries and homemade cole slaw. Yum.


Between the great beer, generous portions and quality ingredients this fun establishment is guaranteed to please. I recommend trying it out on a weeknight (it can get pretty busy on weekends).


Now quit drooling and go get a grilled cheese!!!!!!!!!!




Make sure you eat your crust :)
