    Lemon pepper
    Tanya B.

    Plenty of parking so parking was simple. Upon entering I noticed outdoor seating which was nice to know. We decided to dine inside due to it being warm outside. Service was great owner is very proud of his restaurant's accomplishments and as he should be because the lemon pepper wings were delicious! We also tried the Korean spicy bbq flavor wings as well as the house fries. My drink of choice was the hard cider. If you're in Decatur and want some good wings this is your place! Just check out my pic and vid! Until next time SYOY!!

    Stopped by Brew and Bird for a quick lunch with coworkers. We enjoyed French fries for the table and most of us had a salad with chicken or one of their combo plates. The servers were lovely and everything was very affordable. Looks like it becomes a jazz lounge after work aa they have a bar and space to Lounge with a DJ.

    Some of the best wings we've had, and they're pretty big too. We ordered an 8 piece hot honey mustard, and an 8 piece lemon pepper. We were only able to eat about half of them because they were so filling. Don't expect the regular lemon pepper shake-on seasoning here. They actually use fresh lemon juice one these! The lemon juice gives these wings an amazing flavor! The hot honey mustard wings were super good too. They have a kick, but it's not overwhelming, and they're not super sweet either. The heat and sweet are really well balanced. The owner was the only person working when we got there, and amazingly, he's able to cook, and serve! Not to mention he checks on each table, and is very cordial. He mentioned that the business is still coming back from the Covid disaster, so he works alone during the day and more staff comes in to help in the evening. He said they've been surviving mostly on take out orders and repeat customers. This place deserves to keep its doors open. If you're anywhere near here, and want some great wings, I recommend giving this place a try!

    The wings here were exactly what we were looking for! Great quality, fresh, and the sauce was so good. We also got an order of medium wings and sweet potatoes fries that were delicious. Sam the owner was so friendly. This place is no frills but worth the visit- definitely will be back!

    Wings are solid with a great selection of good tasting sauces. I prefer a little crispier, but they weren't soggy. Beer list was great too. Ambiance was really weird, tables not set up on the patio and inside most of the restaurant was closed with the exception of a few messy tables around the bar. When a party arrived the waiter would unstack some chairs and put them around one of the tables jumbled outside, but then restack the chairs after they left to keep the closed/abandoned vibe going. Everything was served on paper/styrofoam (no plates or even plastic baskets), which was constantly blowing away. Wings marked "market price", which is a bit sketch; sounds like because I asked what "market price" was *before* ordering I got a better deal ($11.95 for 8) than some of the other folks here. A large party arrived and despite the place being 10% occupied they were turned away and told they needed a reservation. Overall strange, but perhaps not a bad place for pickup. Somewhere between 2 and 3 stars.

    So good! Flavor is there the wings are big and the owner was so kind despite my many questions. It's a small place so plan accordingly . I would recommend you take out but it's worth the try .

    Let's see....I have to admit, it was a little strange walking into this spot. Two women were standing outside casually conversing. Or so I thought until they asked if we were here for the band or just for food. We had no clue there was music so that was a no. I'm pretty sure there was a sign up that said they were charging $10 for the band. Could be wrong. Any who, we walked past that section and headed to the bar. 6 spots at the bar and two additional tables for seating. We sat there for minutes without acknowledgement. Two guys even came behind the bar, stood directly in front of us talking and no acknowledgement. A simple "someone will be with you shortly" would have gone a long way. Another guy came and took our order. Bestie ordered the house wings with ranch. They were out of the Korean garlic and pepper, which is what she wanted. I opted for the Korean BBQ wings with fries. Loved the flavor of hers, mine not so much. I did enjoy the fries!! Back to this musical selection....I have no idea how to properly describe it. Sounded like we walked in on an amateur rehearsal. Was not pleasing to my ears at all. But that's just me...the people who were actually in the section seemed to like it so there's that! Lol. Any who, random pop up but not my scene.

    The brews!

    Family owned and operated with a thoughtful and beautiful touch of Korean culture in all the details. Sam was our host who provided a memorable experience front start to finish. If this is your first time here and you're not set on what to eat, live a little and go with Sam's recommendations, you won't be disappointed! The WINGS, probably the best you can get for your money, in or near Atlanta. Our favorite were the house wings, sheeeeeeesh those really hit different haha! Huge emphasis on quality over quantity. The size of the wings were perfect, 8 pieces are definitely good for one person. Especially when you throw in one of the awesome appetizers. We loved the house fries and vegetable dumplings, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. As Sam mentioned, his wife is the mastermind behind the show and you can really appreciate her passion after every bite! If you're thirsty, theres a solid selection of brew ranging from, ales, lagers, ciders, IPA, etc. Sam's recommendations once again we're on point, trust me that man knows what he's talking about. All in all, with everything Brew and Bird have to offer, If you're looking for great food and some good vibes, this place is absolutely a must try. From Sam's musical background and his wife's passion for cooking, what you have are two artist providing a one of a kinda experience.

    Updating my review - they have raised prices since before the quarantine. Given current prices (basically $2 per wing) and quality, I now think this is 4/5 stars as it's a bit overpriced. I've now had comparable wings at other places in Atlanta. Still love Brew and Bird, but less likely to go out of my way for these wings.

    Sam suggested this OB Pilsner to compliment our Korean chimaek quest. It was perfect for a day in the sun enjoying wings.
    Gwendolyn E.

    So happy we found this place. My husband and I were looking for a chimaek fix and were delighted that this is only a short drive from Decatur. Having seen the reviews on both Yelp and Google gave us hope that we could find some good Korean flavors without having to drive to Buford Hwy or Duluth. Before I get into the food, the real star of the show was the owner, Sam. Such a friendly and easy to talk to person who clearly loves sharing an experience with his customers. Thank you, Sam! Next to that is some pretty outstanding wings - we had the Korean BBQ (extra spicy) and the Medium Buffalo. Both had distinct flavors that kept the interesting. I was most pleased that the Korean BBQ are more anchored in a vinegar base rather than an overly sweet sauce, which really sets them apart from a lot of other places. The Medium Buffalo were also nicely balanced, not overly spicy, and had great flavor. But don't just come for the wings ... the fries are incredible!! We came just after they opened so it wasn't too busy yet and Sam, being ever so gracious, agreed to do a half and half order of the normal fries and the sweet potato fries. Like the wings, each had their own unique flavors that we will definitely be back for. Can't wait until live music is possible again, as this place seems like a great place to spend a Saturday!!

    Bar seating with tall chairs only. Not suitable for family with small children
    Domonique J.

    We finally tried brew and bird last Sunday. We normally do Togo orders but wanted to enjoy our food fresh. So we were certainly disappointed at the limited seating that was only available at the bar as this would not accommodate our 1 year old. Overall the food was OK. I enjoyed the kimchi fried rice but it was pretty spicy (I must have missed that on the menu). We ordered 3 sets of 8 piece wings in order to try different flavors, lemon pepper- mild - house. My daughter had the fried chicken plate. I thought the flavor of the chicken was good but all of the chicken was SUPER DRY. It had the texture of precooked chicken that was reheated. I wanted to give this place more stars but the chicken quality did not patch the price. Although they had a menu with prices that were already marked through and changed, their wings are now market price, which means they make it up as they go. They charged $13 per 8 count. Maybe this was just a bad day, but I don't think our family will be back.

I've visited Downtown…read moreDecatur Square countless times and walked past this spot over and over but this time, I got lucky and made it in for a drink. Brick Store Pub is an incredible place. The staff are fantastic, personable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. They really know their craft and are happy to share recommendations on both drinks and food. The ambiance adds so much to the experience, I recommend you to come and relax on the patio or grab a seat at the bar. There's such a great vibe all around that makes you want to stay awhile.

Brick Store was literally not even 100 feet from where we went for dinner, Iberian Pig. We went upstairs to have a drink. The vibes are super cool inside this pub!

In true fashion, of course I got a glass of Guinness. It was perfect! Our server was super friendly and very attentive. She even provided some suggestions based on what the others were looking for. Her name was Olivia! Brick Store also has a full food menu too, but we just came for drinks. The food menu is tradiitonal pub type food, so fish and chips, chicken pot pie, etc. It honestly looked really good! I will definitely be back here in the future!!
