Such a great find! We were in town visiting family and they suggested we go here. Best idea!!! The food was amazing (try the pretzel!) and the drinks were just right (love all the local spirits). Please go and support this local spot. It deserves lots of love. read more

It's been 4 years since I'd been here. The food was great and we ate all to our surprise. The beer is tasty and they have growlers to go or will fill yours if you bring one in. read more

To go order - buffalo chicken salad was very good. I substituted for the ranch and was happy to find homemade dressing. The lettuce in the salad was super fresh. The ladies working there were very friendly. Definitely recommend :) read more

The only thing that was good about this experience was the beer. Our service was horrible and the food was mediocre at best. My sandwich had to be sent back because it was prepared incorrectly. The bacon on our loaded tater tots was burnt to a crisp. Our waitress was somewhere in outer space. The bartender and a person who appeared to be a manager delivered our food and checked in on us. We had to ask for salt, pepper, ketchup, the bill and a to go container. The gentleman that checked us out was sitting at the bar on a laptop, appearing to be a customer. We voiced our complaints to this person as well as the bartender and we're given nothing more than an "I'm sorry". We will go elsewhere and spend our $60 next time. read more

Bradford Brew Station - a glass of beer on a table - Brewpubs Near Me - Bradford, Pennsylvania

I had 3 different beers, the IPA is not very hoppy but drinkable. The Dead in a hurry IPA was very good and the pale ale was good. The BBQ beef sandwich was tasty but the bun was so big and hard I took the top off. The tots were good. The BBQ sauce on the wings was very good. They have a shrimp special cooked any way you want. This is great. The shrimp are very nice sized and very inexpensive. It was a great shrimp meal. Service was a little slow but is pretty much everywhere now. My only real complaint is the bleu cheese is made in house and is the worst you've ever tasted! If you go here, Rookies or beefeaters bring your own bleu cheese for wings! read more

Food and service were fine. Very nice building inside and out. The draft beer is a huge problem with it taking several minutes to pour each mug due to a foam problem (and still too much foam when you finally are served the beer). The owner needs to address this since it's stressful for the bartender/server and annoying to the customers for the wait and for not receiving a full beer. read more

Food has been excellent every time I've been there. Lots of different drinks to try and I love Wednesday night Music Bingo!

Tried a couple beers. First beer I had came from the tap super foamy. Server did the best she could but my glass was only filled about 80% with beer, 20% foam. Beer was flat with no carbonation in the glass. Beer tasted sour; it was skunked. I got a different beer, but same problem. It tasted a little better, but was still bad. I didn't want to cause more of a fuss, so I drank it anyway and left. Don't know what to think when a brewery has a problem with their taps and doesn't know it, they should have some sort of quality control. They blamed it on being closed for the last 3 days, but it's most likely because they have too much or too little pressure in their system, haven't cleaned their system, or the beer is just very old. Pretty amazing, as reading the other posts here, this has been noted by other helpers FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS, yet they have done nothing to address their terrible tap system. Don't know how they stay in business serving skunked beer for two years. read more

I wish 0 stars was an option. What a wasted opportunity. This is such a rural area, I was surprised to find a brewery! My only expectation was a decent beer. But alas, it wasn't meant to be. The 'beer tender' was completely clueless with regards to talking about the beers. I ordered a pint and I kid you not, she reached into the fridge below the bar and took out a pitcher. She had PRE POURED beers! I stopped her and asked for a fresh pour, she tried...good lord, did she try. 5 minutes later, after fighting with the head, I just said give it to me as is. Drank it, paid and split. Terrible experience. I get that it might be hard finding quality staff in such a remote location, but a little education on the owners part would go a long way. This is not how I'd want the fruits of my labor served. read more

Bradford Brew Station - Pouring from pre-poured pitchers. I kid you not - Brewpubs Near Me - Bradford, Pennsylvania

Beers were all poured wrong with too much foam. The kids menu says it comes with one item, one side, and a cookie. But they don't actually have cookies so the kids were disappointed. Steamed broccoli is flavorless and nearly raw so I'd avoid that. Mac and cheese is overpriced for the small portion and bland cheese sauce. Place has potential but they'd have to use better ingredients and training on how to pour beer. read more

Amazing drinks, great staff, food is good and the theming and details of the asthmatic are top notch! First time visitor but we will be coming back every visit in the future. Definitely Bradford's best offering for out of town visitors. read more

Bradford Brew Station - Try a "Sex on Kinzua Beach" and all the beers! - Brewpubs Near Me - Bradford, Pennsylvania

Bartender responsible for whole bar and dining room on a Saturday for lunch. She was surly and inattentive. Took too long to get service and then no set ups. Had to ask for silverware and napkins once food arrived and no dressing for salad. Asked for no onions on salad-lots of onions. She did not check on us once. What has happened to courteous service? Go somewhere anywhere else for lunch! read more

The beers and food are good and fresh cut fries are great as long as the cooking grease has been recently changed. Most servers are very good but "V" is not very attentive and has issues taking orders asking more than once and still gets it wrong. Had the same experience at least twice with this server if not 3 times. Nice atmosphere. read more

Pretty good experience overall, especially for being open only a week. I had a Boom Boom Burger. They didn't ask how I wanted it cooked, but it came out medium I'd say. Nice flavor and it was a good size. The fresh cut fries could have been a little crispier, but not bad. My wife had the ham and apple salad. Ben Grice's lettuce was superb, but the presentation could have been better. As far as the beer goes, I was please, I just hope they remain consistent. We'd like to see more gluten free options. There are several things on the menu that could be made gluten free with slightly different prep and/or having GF bread or rolls on hand. Service was ok. We weren't asked how our meal was until we had already eaten. Overall I would recommend and will eat there again. read more

Bradford Brew Station - Loaded nachos & fried chicken waffle sandwich - Brewpubs Near Me - Bradford, Pennsylvania

Not the fault of our bartender she was frantically trying to cover two large groups of baseball players who all came in at the same time, she was pretty frazzled. But my review really speaks to their brewery. Just not very good quality or selection. Our soft pretzel tasted like the kind you get at the frozen section of your supermarket. We just didn't feel very welcome here. read more

The food was bad service was bad and slow they didn't really show any interest in wanting to help you I would not go back there again

Staff as excellent and attentive. Great selection of house brewed beverages. Food was hot and served fast. Clean, bright, open and well designed on the interior. First time here. Next time passing through, this will be the place to visit again. read more

Beer was solid. Food was alright, but a bit cold. Service was bad. Server Danielle definitely did not want to be there and it was very evident. We wanted to order more beers but she never checked on us. Will return for some beers at the bar, but will probably eat somewhere else next time. read more

Small brew pub with 13 of its own beers available on draft and to go in growlers or crowlers. Their beer is delicious. I tried a raspberry wheat beer, a maple flavored beer, a pecan flavored brown ale, and a stout with hints of marshmallow named for a local band. All were excellent. I recommend the pecan and the marshmallow above all. An appetizer of buffalo cauliflower was delicious and fresh, and the tater tots and steamed broccoli I ordered as sides were excellent. The barbecue beef sandwich was good, but not exceptional. Service was great, atmosphere was cool, with decor paying homage to Bradford's history as an oil town in the 19th and early 20th century. Well worth a stop if you are in the area, and a great spot if you are a local. read more

For being only the second week of being open I would say overall the experience was pretty good. The wait staff was a tad slow, and we were slow be greeted and given a table. Everyone was very nice though that we came in contact with. All expected though really, and I am confident those things will improve. So those items are not being weighted in my review. I went with my wife and son, and noticed right off hand that there was no kids menu. Buying a $12 bowl of mac and cheese for a toddler is a little much in my book. Another thing noticed on the food menu was the complete lack of Gluten Fee items. There are only 2 meals (salads) listed as GF, and the one is only if you don't get croutons. I noticed a lot of the sides are listed as GF, but I doubt they are using a separate fryer for those items. I may be wrong though. I got a flight of 4 beers which were all very tasty, but each glass was only filled up about half full even without any head. I hope they stay consistent with the quality of beer that they are producing, because each beer I had I would have again as a full glass. The prices are pretty exceptional for craft beers also. read more

Went there on a Saturday October 14th. Our first and our last visit. Service was bad to non existent. Took forever to get beer. Place orders for chicken and waffles, the boom boom burger and Ahi tuna for an apetizer. Tuna arrived it was not Ahi tuna it was pink, not dark red like Ahi is supposed to be. It was covered with sesame seeds that were barley toasted with wosabi that was not hot at all. Had to track down staff for the syrup that was supposed to come with the chicken and waffles. Fries were soggy and had to find ketchup from another table. Beer was good but not worth the bad food and service. If you are in the Bradford area, do yourself a favor and go to the Westline Inn. read more

This is my second time visiting this establishment. This is the first (and last) time I've eaten food here. I will say that they have a great beer list (#9 Barker Amber Ale). The atmosphere is energetic. The servers are very friendly. Overall great place for a beer. Realizing that is a bar - not a bar and grill - just a yuppie bar in Bradford, PA, I should have not ordered an avocado and orange salad with chicken but I'm tired of eating the standard fried and fast-food. With that said there are still some basic standards that should be followed like marking sure the lettuce isn't wilting; more than just a cup of diced chicken (when I'm paying an extra $4); and the cucumbers are fresh. I rate them a 3 because of their desire to be a pleasant place to grab a beer. Enjoy. read more

Unfortunately... The service was poor, the beer was mediocre, and the chicken sandwich was terrible. The sweet potato fries, side order, maybe had 20 fries and poor tasting. Nice looking building, nice facility inside; however, don't judge this place by its cover! Go somewhere else. read more

Great little place in Bradford! Food was good and the restaurant itself is nice. The service was a little on the slow side but overall it was still a good experience. read more

Great new addition to Bradford. Huge selection of brews, awesome flights, yummy snacks, cool interior. Definitely recommend and certainly will be back! read more

This was our first time here. It has a theme and is very interesting but they didn't seem to "go for it." The beer was actually very good, but neither entree we ordered was too impressive. The portions were a little surprising in both directions. It was very loud. I guess music was playing, but we never heard it. Overall, this place has some kinks to work out, but the beer is where the money is. read more

I like coming here when I travel to Bradford Good food, great beer and top notch service. Some folks just got it figured out Thank you! read more

First time we dined here in a couple of years. It used to be amazing and was always packed. It was virtually empty and now we know why. Service was slow. we didn't get our drinks until half way through dinner. The wine was flat, my friends beer tasted funky, my other friends Moscow mules were served in beer glasses instead of copper cups and tasted like flat ginger ale. The food was not good either. I ordered a chicken quesadilla that smelled like dirty armpit and the cheese tasted funky. This was supposed to come with salsa and sour cream and instead came with salsa and mayo. I asked for sour cream and never received it. Not that it mattered, I didn't eat the quesadilla anyway, for fear I would be ill later. My friends Buffalo chicken flatbread was forgotten and not brought out until everyone was finished eating. The other meals (grilled chicken wraps and chicken tenders were edible. My friend did not receive a discount or anything for her meal coming substantially late. All in all...very disappointing. I really hope this place gets better as it has the potential to be really amazing. read more

the food here was amazing!! i dont drink but my dad and his wife do, they had 2 flights and enjoyed each beer they had. we came as soon as the place opened as we were very excited to try this place. the servers were very attentive and pleasurable. the place itself is designed super well and i enjoyed looking around ! read more

A worthy stop while in the Bradford area. Nicely decorated with local oil memorabilia and the beer was pretty good. Food is a step up above standard pub fare and the service was good. Looking forward to trying their breakfast and beer menu! I hope they make it because there are little other worthy food and brew options locally. read more

This was our second visit to the Brew Station, our first since the pandemic. Things have changed and not for the better. First of all, there are no menus available to look at. You have to scan a code and try to read the menu from your tiny phone screen. This is not a good option for us senior citizens. Probably not a problem for the younger patrons. I ordered the beef tenderloin tip sandwich. The meat was very over cooked and dry. I asked for msyo in an attempt to add some moisture and was more than a little shocked when I got the check to see we were charged for the mayo. The final disappointment came when we were leaving. I told a server about my unsatisfactory sandwich. She acknowledged my complaint but didn't offer anything in compensation. I didn't ask for anything. As we left the restaurant with my disabled sister, they stood and watched us leave without offering to hold the door for the wheelchair. All in all, a disappointing outing. read more

So glad this is in town one of the better places to eat and have some drinks staff is friendly and fun and very knowledgeable about the beers and the area my family visited recently and loved this place!! Highly recommended read more

It pains me to write a review like this about a local brewery, but it is warranted. Stopped in tonight for date night. The beer was pretty good, tater tots were good but a little salty, but the service was horrible. We were there for about an hour, the last 20 minutes without any drinks or food. 5 different times a server came out, looked at us and went to another table. Waved at them a couple time and was not acknowledged. Told the manager and was told, I'm sorry we are short staffed. I wasn't looking for an excuse. I would never recommend anyone to go there. (I was even wearing my Hoptymist shirt showing how much I love craft beer!) read more

Love this place. Stopped by for dinner and beer! Excellent service and fantastic food and beer! Will definitely be back!! read more

They have walleye fish dinners that are great and the price is very fair. Employees are very nice and helpful. I would definitely go back again and again. I rate this as A+ read more

Very disappointed. Should have guessed it might not be good when at 5 pm we were only customers in dining room. Lobster dip was nothing but cream cheese no lobster the cream cheese wasn't even stirred all the way in. Chicken in waffles the waffles were like rubber. Texas cheeseburger they warned they cook it well which I'm fine with but what they did was char the outside so bad that the middle was still pink. Good side waitress was good and did take off meals. That I can appreciate it it wasn't her fault. read more

The beer list is very good and the staff are very friendly. The food on the other hand is not the best. I got food poisoning from eating the deep-friend turkey sandwich. Wouldn't recommended eating that sandwich. read more

If you like to wait 7-10 minutes to get seated well you will be upset. We waited around that time to just seat ourselves(yes they seat you) . After finding our seat we sat there another 5 without anybody saying a word to us. Once we were noticed the bartender was our waitress. She was pleasant enough.. except every drink we asked about was " changed out" because " things change". We recieved our drinks in a timely fashion. Then we waited another 15-20 minutes for our food.( 2 burgers. 1 classic and a bacon egg and cheese). After finding the under cooked rubbery like bacon. I proceeded to eat the burger which was just a burger. For $11.95 I expect a decent burger not something less than or equal to Wendy's. Maybe the burger was better than described but the bun was cheap and just awful. The fries were freshly cut soggy potatoes. The silverware was borderline plastic. Only once during our 45-60 minute visit were we asked if were okay. I guess we didnt want anymore drinks... all in all I dont think we will ever be back. Such a bad first experience. You can easily find a better establishment. read more

We just went in to try the beer. Settled on a couple flights and the Charcuterie tray. Both were well worth the money. The meat and cheese tray exceeded our expectations. It was a great alternative to more common appetizers. Will be going back again. read more
