My flight was delayed so I decided to get dinner and a drink. Stopped by Braxtons and looked at their menu. Went across the hall to the other place and their menu was worse and the service there was NOT friendly, so I went back to Braxtons. I sat at the bar next to some randoms, who were very nice and we chatted for a few hours while we all waited for the same delayed flight. The bartenders were awesome. They were helpful and funny. This is a family owned place, so while the place across closed promptly at 8, this place allowed us to sit outside the restaurant after 8 and still get served! I had one of their beers- a local sour, cherry, very good. I also had their veggie bowl with beef on it. It was delicious. Then I had a fantastic Bloody Mary. They served it to me with a lime and a big olive, and I got it spicy. My neighbor had a super strong margarita. She also has the chips and salsa which she said the salsa was super hot. I did not verify. The kitchen closes early, which is a shame. But the bar and the shenanigans are open longer. They even gave us plastic cups with lids so we could take our drinks to our gate if we had to leave before finishing them. Great service. Great food. Great drinks. Family owned. No airport rules. Gotta love that. read more

Braxton Brewing at CVG - A Hidden Gem for Great Beer & Birria Tacos If you're passing through CVG and looking for a solid bite and a great drink, Braxton Brewing is the place to stop. While they're known for their craft beers, the real star of the menu is their birria tacos--hands down the best I've had at an airport (or anywhere, really). The trio dip is amazing as well. The tacos are packed with flavorful, tender beef, perfectly crispy on the outside, and served with a rich, savory consommé for dipping. They're juicy, well-seasoned, and pair amazingly with one of Braxton's locally brewed beers. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a great spot to unwind before a flight. Service is quick and friendly, which is a huge plus when you're on the go. Whether you're a craft beer fan or just looking for a top-tier meal at CVG, Braxton Brewing is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back! read more

Braxton Brewing Company CVG - Chips trio and Prosecco - Brewpubs Near Me - Hebron, Kentucky

It's rather difficult to find good food in an airport, but Braxton Brewing has done that while offering a good cold beer, too. You'll find this Braxton's in terminal A around gates A15 & A14. Flat screen T.V.s dot the walls playing the days various sporting events. The server was attentive and quick to bring my Braxton Garage Beer, light lager - very cold and hit the spot. I opted for the Whiskey Row taco, $6, in a flour tortilla, stout braised pork belly, cheese blend, bourbon glaze and a garnish of chopped cilantro. I really enjoyed the tender pork belly, but the bourbon glaze was too sweet for my taste. The cilantro looked as if it had been sitting out since opening and looked tired and a bit dried out. I'd certainly stop at this watering hole if passing through this airport again! read more

Excellent food, friendly and amenable staff, and delicious Braxton beer... what more could anyone want?! The salsa is delicious. The al pastor taco is unique and satisfying. I could sit here all day and eat chips and drink beer... but I have a plane to catch! Thanks, BBC for another great meal. read more

Many TVs with the game on and on silent. Great music playing. Classic rock and roll. I got a fish taco, a taco Al Pasteur, and the queso and chips. Chips needed salt. Queso ok. Fish taco had little fish but lots of guacamole and sour cream (had some with my chips). Al Pasteur tasty. Service excellent. Good place to stop if near your gate. read more

good for airport food. got 2 sliders and fries for 15 dollars. my wife got a veggie salad. Great Brussel sprouts. Very loud and service was acceptable. Shortage of workers. read more

Delightful experience all around! We had a couple of hours before our flight and wanted good food. Braxton did not disappoint. I had a chance to try many of the tacos. The Whiskey River and the chimmy-chimmi-ya were my favorites! They are small street tacos, but fairly priced for an airport and delicious! Our server, Beverly, provided excellent recommendations and friendly service throughout. She made a good time even better. Great space for waiting and TVs with basketball playing kept us occupied. I would go out of my way to visit again. read more

Braxton Brewing Company CVG - Fish taco - Brewpubs Near Me - Hebron, Kentucky

We happened on this brewery and sat outside with our family. It was a beautiful day and so relaxing. Very good IPA. We came from Kansas and Ohio to go to the Ark Encounter. read more

We were excited to try this place, especially with such limited options around, but we left disappointed. No one greets you so it's not clear whether you seat yourself or just wait. Once we ordered, our appetizer (the dip trio) came out within seconds. The Queso had a film over it, the guacamole wasn't real avocado (like a paste), and the chips were stale. It was clear that it had been sitting there for some time. I ordered the two taco combo and my spouse ordered the Birria. Let me say that if you are in the least bit hungry, DO NOT ORDER THE TACOS. They were literally the smallest tacos I've ever had, with no trace of anything that the menu said would be on it like lime crema, etc. it was about a tablespoon of shredded chicken and a few specks of cilantro. The birria was slightly more substantial but not much. The black beans were the worst I've ever had. They literally tasted straight out of a can with no seasoning whatsoever. I added a teaspoon of hot sauce and some shakes of salt and they were barely edible. We went our entire dinner without any water or beverages because our waitress forgot them. I had to flag down the other waitress at the end of our meal and she graciously brought us some and said "I think she forgot you." We had no silverware until we chased down the server as well. There was only two other tables taken, so they were "just busy". It was pure laziness and it was clear that the server had better things to do than serve. For the expense of $16 for three TINY 3" tacos with no filling, I would never recommend this place. Within an hour, we were on our flight ordering a meal because we were still hungry - and we are light eaters. Do not recommend! Adding one star for the server who did care. read more

Braxton Brewing Company CVG - The tiniest taco I've ever been served. Missing most of the ingredients. - Brewpubs Near Me - Hebron, Kentucky

Packed at lunch. Seating at the bar so I sat down at the bar with my son. After 10 minutes, finally started to take my order and then proceeded to tell us we couldn't sit there since he wasn't 21 and then walked away. I understand laws are laws, but no need to waste my time or blow us off the way that was done. Food looked like it was good read more

Airport restaurants are usually hit or miss but this one is always a hit. I've had breakfast and lunch here before my flights. Service was quick and we didn't have to wait long after ordering to receive drinks or food. My seltzer was light and refreshing and less carbonated than most. I had the Chimmi-chimmi-ya corn taco and it was a perfect size for a light snack before boarding. A friend got another taco on a flour tortilla and it was piled with toppings and quite enjoyable. It's generally seat yourself here but each time they've been quick to spot us and get our order started. If you're in terminal A or have time to stop here before heading to B it's a good spot! read more

Ate here for lunch while waiting for a flight. Greeted promptly by the wait staff and my order was taken in a timely manner. Food came out quickly. Deliciously homemade tacos and guacamole for lunch. The vibe here is cool much like the original Braxton location. Great spot to dine at the airport. read more

Amazing Quesadilla! We enjoyed the veggie quesadilla with cashew chimichuri. Best airport meal I've ever had! Service was friendly and top notch too. 10/10 recommend. read more

We had a couple hours before our flight and I wanted a sit-down, a drink, and a little bit to eat. This Braxton location was basically directly across from my gate, and I am familiar with their beer, so I decided to give it a try. They have table service, but no signs or instructions on whether you need to wait to be seated or seat yourself. A kind gentleman at the end of the gate-facing bar told me he seated himself and I was welcome to sit in the empty seat next to him. Done! I did have to assertively (but politely) request that a server come take my order after waiting quite a while. I ordered the fruited sour beer they had on tap and tater tots from the kids menu. The tots were, even for a kid, a laughably small serving. But they tasted fine. The beer was good. The Cincinnati airport allows you to carry around alcoholic drinks in plastic cups, as long as you finish them before your flight, which certainly is a plus and one I wish I had known before sitting down to order and drink. But hey, at least I had a nice table-neighbor and I got lightly fed before my flight. I have had both better and worse offerings in airports, so Braxton gets the job done. read more

Don't go to Moerlein... cross over the aisle to Braxton. Better service, better beer, better food. Glad this is open at CVG!

This place was great! I always love supporting local breweries and they had a nice a variety of beers. I really enjoyed the Switch IPA and the Hazy IPA. Brian and Kara were both very friendly and Kara gave good beer and food suggestions. They have a fun selection of Street Tacos. I LOVED the Whiskey Row pork belly Taco and also got the Chimmi Chimmi-Ya - would recommend both. This was a great pit stop on our layover. Cheers read more

Great service and excellent food choices. Fantastic way to pass the time waiting for a flight.

Traveling through CVG, I was delayed and parked myself at the bar at Braxton. The wait staff was amazing and the tacos are notably quite good! When it came time to check out, there was an issue with the voucher from the airline. The manager simply comped the meal. Solid. That is great customer service and I will happily spend my money here on my next trip through. Good food. Great customer service. What's not to love? Throw some business their way on your way through CVG! read more

They are open for breakfast despite what is listed here on Yelp. Arrived around 9:57, hungry for breakfast before my flight. No one came to my table to take my order so I went to the bar to order. A person finally arrived, and informed me when I attempted to order breakfast that it was now 10:01, and they were no longer serving breakfast. Really!?? My lunch was good, however, but tacos are super small. Service was friendly despite the initial slowness. read more

Very good food fast customer service some of the best airport food I've ever had over all recommended to everybody

Friendly service and tasty food in the A gates at CVG. Was a little surprised to find the menu was Mexican food based on the name. I had the taco salad with chicken and was pleased by the fresh ingredients and good flavors. Nice to find a nice somewhat healthy option to enjoy while traveling. read more
