10 oz. IPA vs. a 14 oz. 805 Ale = same price at $7.
Ellen R.

I'm calling bullshit. Depending on the ALCOHOL content of your draft beer, they give you a certain size acrylic cup to drink it out of. ARE YOU SERIOUS? Beers are $7 whether they are 10 oz for the boyfriend's Stone IPA or my 14 oz 805. Whatever happened to the pint? Love what this place could be. Once a keg runs out, the screen on the wall changes to what is currently available, adding a new brew to the menu. There's a couple pool tables, dart boards, unisex bathrooms, some really fun kitschy funnies in the wall. The decor is an A++ with a very cool bar, selection of alcohol, and accent wall. The roll up door brings the outdoors in, which I totally like. The bartendresses are very helpful and nice- they were really great. If the owner would go to full size beers at $7 ($1.50 more than our favorite watering hole) we would go back... but if he wants it to be hipster and "different" and rip his customers off, then it's not for me. Welcome to Los Gatos prices on a Gilroy budget!

Great new place! Nice tap collection, B.Y.O.F. I could live here!!! Just needs purse hooks!

Big fan of the industrial vibe here. We've brought some of our own games to play before which is fun. No real complaints, but it would be nice to see some drink specials.

Bartenders Union is a nice place to hang out.  A gem in downtown Gilroy.  We played darts and pool and enjoyed draft beer and a full bar!

We did dinner, drinks, and a little bowling and had the best time. The vibe is upbeat and modern, and the food honestly exceeded our expectations. We shared the meat lovers pizza, a burger, and the southwest egg rolls. Everything came out hot and fresh. The burger was cooked perfectly and the pizza was delicious. Mike stopped by to introduce himself, which was such a nice touch. You can tell he genuinely cares about the place and the experience. We'll definitely be back next time we're in the mood for a fun night out!

I had to put my ball back in my bag and use the house balls and roll like a kid to get my moneys worth. For $40 an hour for a solo bowler on a Tuesday, being the ONLY bowler in the building is absurd. Don't want to absolutely rip the place, but for a regular bowler with expectations, this place is not for you. BUT, it is very clean and the staff was all very nice(except for the owner giving his trainee weird attitude for asking for help ringing me up). The vibe is upscale and is probably very fun for the average bowler looking for a good time. Comfy couches and good drinks, probably a great place to have a gathering or meet up friends.

I've always been more of a Wingstop kinda girl, probably due to it being a lot more convenient…read more I've had 1 other experience with Buffalo Wild Wings beside this recent visit and I must say, the one thing that always remained in my memory was the MANGO HABANERO sauce. With my family and I being in need of lunch, I wanted to give BWW another try... Let me start off my confirming that the reviews at this particular BWW isn't great. Hell, I think its safer to say they are terrible. I was a little weary of dining in but I didn't want to miss out on an opportunity for their mango habanero. Our party of 4 walked in and was immediately greeted and seated. The bar had maybe 2 patrons and 2 other booths were being occupied. Slow for what would typically be a lunch rush but it is what it is. Lunch consisted of: *BOTTOMLESS APPS [CLASSIC: mozz sticks, onion rings, fried pickles, hatch queso, + chips & salsa] *15ct BONE IN WINGS [medium, mango habanero, honey garlic] *3pc CRISPY CHICKEN DIPPERS, served with fries *KING'S HAWAIIAN CHEESEBURGER SLIDERS [golden fire sauce on the side] Food was good. The bottomless apps weren't as beneficial for our party since the fried options got tiresome quite quickly. BUT!! We did make sure to sample a little bit of everything- hatch queso being one of the faves and the disappointment lies with the clearly canned salsa that was offered. The wings were delicious and yes!!! The mango habanera was just as amazing as i had remembered!!! The chicken tenders were a bit dry but the tasty fries kind of made up for that. I highly recommend the King's Hawaiian cheeseburger sliders- the buns were so soft and fluffy, the burger was flavorful, and this is the perfect choice for anyone dining with children. With all that said, kudos absolutely goes out to Natalia!!! You are the primary reason as to why this visit/meal was so enjoyed. Thank you for being patient, kind, hardworking, and so personable. Each and every request was met and your level of A1 customer service was so refreshing. Girl, you undoubtedly deserve a raise!! Yes, there is a wait to place and receive orders. Yes, the server takes a bit of time to make their rounds but that is expected since they are juggling quite a bit. Come here ready to be patient and be floored by the friendliness - a fair trade off if you ask me. 5/5 stars. I'd come back again and you already know mango habanero is gonna be on my order!

Food was disgusting.. also they gave my order to someone else so I had to wait another 30 mins.read more

Kelly Brewing is truly one of those places that works for any vibe -- group hang, date night,…read morefamily outing, or even a solo trip. It's locally family-owned and operated, and you can absolutely feel that welcoming, community energy the second you walk in. They've got a solid lineup of beers on tap with some house staples (Farmer Nelson IPA is my personal go-to) plus rotating options that keep things interesting -- we especially love the seasonal sours. They also have sodas and chips, plus their own craft root beer, which is a fun touch. There's always a food truck parked outside (except Mondays), and we've consistently had great meals to go with our drinks. The space itself is a win: bar seating with purse hooks, several large indoor tables, and a large outdoor patio. Inside you'll find two pool tables, shuffleboard, a video game area and board games. Outside there's ping pong, which makes it extra fun for groups and kids. They also have large restrooms with baby changing tables.

Great local brewery to relax and grab a drink! The staff was welcoming and super helpful with beer…read morerecommendations. They even let us bring in pizza from down the street to enjoy with our drinks. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, plus a cozy little couch area to hang out. In the back, they have a couple of pool tables if you want something to do while you sip. They're definitely dog‑friendly, too. One of the coolest touches is the artwork on the ceiling, inspired by the owner's favorite record albums. They were setting up the stage for live music while we were there, unfortunately, we had to leave before the show started. They host a lot of events, including food trucks, which is always a bonus. Their beer selection is wide, and they offer samples so you can find the right fit. I tried the Farmer Nelson Hazy IPA and really enjoyed it. Their pours come in UK pint sizes (20 oz), which is a nice surprise. My wife had the Go Nuts Cream Ale and loved her pick as well.

(We came in on a shift change).The First Lady was a bit more personable than her replacement bur the Second Lady was nice and attentive. The food was mostly good. I like the Spinich and Artichoke dip, and I was hot but I would have preferred almost biting my mouth hot. I had the Chicken Parmesan Fettuccine; the chicken was great but the fettuccine Alfredo was pretty bland.

We visited this Applebee's around two weeks ago after suddenly craving the Applebee's BBQ we…read moreremembered from Hong Kong. The food was shocking. The barbecue meat was extremely tough--so hard that it genuinely felt like it could damage my teeth. It was nearly inedible. More concerning was the hygiene issue. I clearly saw the server's finger touching the food while carrying the plate. Basic food handling should ensure that hands do not come into contact with what is being served. When I requested a to-go box, I was initially given a container that was far too small for the amount of leftover food, without any explanation. Only after I spoke up were additional containers brought, which felt careless and dismissive. Out of consideration for the cooks and other customers, we chose not to escalate the situation and simply took the food to go. However, having lived in the U.S. for many years, this was a rare and deeply unpleasant experience--one that felt not just poorly handled, but genuinely insulting and unacceptable. Despite everything, we did not leave without tipping. We still left a 10% tip out of basic courtesy. I worked as a waitress myself when I first came to the U.S., so I understand how demanding service work can be, and we are usually very generous with tips. That is exactly why this experience was especially disappointing and hard to accept

They just do a few a little differently I noticed. When I come, I order a pound of shrimp: jellyfish smack, medium, with an addition of sausage. (Corn and potatoes too if I'm feeling really hungry.) I always like ordering a side of rice so that I can pour the sauce on top of it for that extra flavor. The service is good. It normally isn't too busy and they provide you with all the utensils: a bucket to dump ur shells, a bib, gloves, salt, pepper and lime if you need it as well.

The mission of this visit was to try the seafood boil, and boy were we thrilled! The place didn't disappoint, Food was fresh and flavorful. We ordered garlic butter noodles 4 Yam fries 5 flavorful and crispy with a spicy dip. Seafood boil 4.5 good quality and flavors, I felt it was a tad salty, but I won't complain. Unlike the other seafood boil places the food came in a ceramic serving tray. We ordered the house sauce with medium spice with shrimp, king crab and clams.The spice level was perfect and so was the sauce. Very pleased with this service, portions, pricing and the flavors. Definitely coming back to taste several other items on the menu. I would have loved for them to play some music rather than the silence. I wasn't too bothered. Y it though since I was too focused on the food.
