Wow! That was a fun Hoagie War. We hope you all enjoyed it too. But before we start thinking about our next “War,” we are back for a few of our regular reviews.
It’s been a while since this critic got a mom’s night out, and a good friend got a new job, so we decided to celebrate and take a chance on a new place with a familiar name, Snitz Creek Brewery Palmyra in Campbelltown.
Located in the building known as Leed’s Corner, it opened late last year, and we were anxious to try it. Each location of Snitz Creek Brewery boasts its own menu, and there were some distinct options for us to try.

Of course, we moms were going to live it up tonight, so we all got an adult beverage to enjoy. Snitz Creek is known for their “cream ales” and one mom got the Peanut Butter Cream Pie Ale, another the Summer Shandy, and myself, I opted for the Banana Rum Old Fashioned. All our choices were delicious and just what we needed!
We started our meals with the classic pretzel braid ($10), served with the beer cheese sauce. This looked so good we forgot to get a picture before we started digging in! The cheese sauce was unique and had a good peppery spice to it.
For our meals, we chose some classics along with some new tastes. Our first selection was a classic smash burger with fries ($15). Our guest critic noted a good flavor to the burger, the right toppings and sauce, but noted that the burger was thicker than what she expected being a smash burger.
Our next selection was classic mac and cheese ($16), featuring fontina, fresh mozzarella, parmesan, bacon and Snitz lager. This mac and cheese was extra cheesy, and thoroughly enjoyed by our other guest critic.
For my meal, I had perused the menu ahead of time and one sandwich stuck out: the Korean Chicken Sandwich ($15), with a crispy chicken, Korean BBQ sauce, spicy mayo, and a sesame seed brioche bun.
As I bit into this giant sandwich, I was surprised by the chicken. It was crispy but didn’t seem to be breaded… maybe such a light breading it was hard to notice. Two chicken thighs were topped with plenty of spicy sauce, complemented by the mayo and pickles. It was a little tough to chew at some points and I ended up breaking down the sandwich and eating the ingredients separately.
Our take: Snitz Creek Brewery has some classic Snitz menu options and some new innovative choices. We saw quite a few pizzas coming out to various tables that looked delicious, along with classic bar food that we’d be willing to come back and try. Some of our choices did not live up to our expectations, but we’re ready to go back and try something else.
