Hipsters on Holiday. The badass decor hardly makes up for the dismal service, but this is still a great outdoor place for drinks with friends or people watching.

Service was Great!. After reading the reviews about poor service, I was hesitant to eat at Spider House. However, I had a gift card, so I went with my hubby to try it out. Our server, Dustin, was fantastic! He was attentive, friendly and prompt. No problems there.

The food was just okay. We went at 5:00 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon. I could see enjoying myself more over breakfast and coffee. The setting is pretty cool. I think you go to Spider House more for the vibe than the food.

Service bites. I have been a long time autinite and I take pride in the new a odd places to eat and drink,.I was a fan of spiderhouse when it first opened,.it was cool and chill,.the past few times I have been seriously disapointed in the down-hill slide of this once great establishment,..one really nice waitress had paid great care in our requests but the other bartenders and staff were very narcissitic and rude. I have since deferred any potential patrons until the staff pulls their heads out. I am a fair reviewer and I dont go off for just any reason, so my opinionj is valid, believe me. Wont go there again,...I get treated better at Miltos.

Spider House, Second Home. As ridiculous as it sounds, Spider House really has become a second home to me. I spend hours there nearly every day and I am on a first name basis with almost all of the employees. I love the atmosphere & the location. Spider House is decorated with eclectic antique finds and unique one of a kind pieces of furniture. I feel comfortable and welcome here!

I typically order an iced Toddy Rico & the Garden Bagel. I also suggest any of their baked goods & the Grilled Cheese Especial!
