Batch Local Kitchen: West Palm Beach

Batch Local Kitchen is a scratch kitchen on Clematis Street, formerly known as Batch New Southern Kitchen & Tap, serving weekend brunch, weekday lunch, dinner, and craft cocktails. The menu leans on Southern comfort cooking and local ingredients, with a whiskey and craft beer bar for happy hour or a late dinner. The bar program focuses on American-made spirits, new-world wines, and Florida craft beers, and the pecan rolls at brunch have drawn local press. It’s a casual, lively room that suits groups and bar seats alike, and it’s walkable from downtown hotels and the waterfront. Reserve through OpenTable. Batch also has sister restaurants in Delray Beach and Fort Lauderdale. It’s a Clematis Street regular the neighbors count on for a relaxed meal and a good drink.
