Great food, well-crafted drinks, and a lively atmosphere!! Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen delivers an excellent all-around experience. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, with a menu that offers a nice balance of comfort dishes and more creative options. Everything came out fresh and nicely presented. The drink selection is a real highlight, with a strong variety of well-crafted beers and cocktails. The atmosphere is energetic but still comfortable, making it a great spot for both casual visits and nights out with friends. Service was attentive, friendly, and well-paced. Overall, Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen stands out for its quality food, great drinks, and welcoming vibe. A well-deserved five-star experience and a place I'd happily return to. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but the experience was disappointing overall. We came in after hearing about Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen from a work friend and were excited to try it. We started with the "pretzel bites," which turned out to be pretzel sticks--not a big deal, but definitely not what was advertised. They came with stone ground mustard, and surprisingly there's no option for regular mustard at all... at a burger place, which is kind of mind-blowing. The food itself wasn't terrible. The smash burger with pickled onions was actually very good--greasy in a good way and full of flavor. However, the fries were undercooked and fell flat. What really ruined the experience was the service. Our server was extremely rude and completely disengaged. When we asked about the beers, she just pointed out there was a QR code on the menu and left it at that--no help, no suggestions. We asked about non-alcoholic beer options and got a blunt "no," with zero effort to offer alternatives. When she came to take our order, she just stood there without greeting us or saying anything, which was awkward and unprofessional. Throughout the entire visit, she never checked on us once. It's frustrating because the food had potential, but the service completely killed the experience. Definitely not somewhere I'd go out of my way to return to. read more

Went to see a friend play. I ordered the three chicken tacos, from the time of order to a plate in front of me 42 minutes and we were the only table in the restaurant seated at the time. There were 5 people at my table. My tacos must've sat in the window for a very long time cause that (for lack of a better term) the taco shells were stale even though the salsa and chicken were extremely wet. For 14 dollars the tacos were over priced and the appetizers pretzel sticks also suffered the same fate of being particularly stale and did not come with the mustard as was on the menu. Also my iced tea tasted fermented. I also ordered deep fried Oreos but I over heard the cook complain about making them so due to circumstances we canceled the order. All in all, my friends who drink said the beer was good but the food was mediocre at best, our server spent more time talking and laughing with her coworkers than checking on our line table. I really wanted to like this place, but I just didn't! read more

We wanted to try this place because we saw good reviews but we did not have a good experience. We sat at the bar for 15 min waiting to order a drink. The bartender was not friendly. It honestly felt like we were bothering her. She didn't check on us, offer a refill of drinks which we would have definitely ordered another, and we were sitting at the bar. We also ordered nachos with the pico and corn salsa on the side, because there was an allergy, and they gave us a little cup you would use to get ketchup in. The restaurant was not busy during our visit. We also asked for hot sauce and she offered buffalo sauce. How do you serve wings but not have hot sauce? read more

Food is great, staff is great,and they have 40 beers on tap. Their patio is comfy in the evenings and they even allow doggos. Defintely try them out. read more

We've eaten here a few times. The food and service seem to be a hit or miss. We get either really great service and food or terrible service and bland food. The burgers are good and so are the fries. The wings had no flavor. The zucchini fries definitely needed some seasoning. I've had them before and they were really good but not this time around. They also should've been fried longer. Tried the chicken sandwich and that also lacked flavor. I really want to like this place but they need better management and maybe a better menu. read more

Honestly the place could have potential, just needs better management, the beer selection is great and, the wings were good, just too many misses. The patio could be good but you couldn't escape from the sun at all. And it needed better tables and chairs. Believe the reviews of them being out of everything, we laughed because we read that, then there was an entire list of things they were out of, mind you we were there on a Saturday, that is just a management issue. Cleanup, condense the menu to just your highlights (too expensive for what you are getting), and manage the supply chain, you got this! read more

This is a detour I will do more often. The parking is very easy, it's in a plaza near the courthouse. There is an extensive beer selection. Various styles too. They also have a good food menu that has a nice variety of food types. Clean establishment, and I like how the interior is laid out. It's not a very large place but they also have a lovely covered patio so I look forward to trying it out next time. The service is very good, friendly staff all around. I ordered the onion rings and the best sriracha aioli came with it. Wow, what a great combo. It's a holiday Monday...and the music is perfect for the gen x-er. Lol. It's a good vibe and I can see that the staff has local customers and I like seeing the rapport there. I will definitely return. read more

Just awful today. We were a fan three years ago when the food was terrific (thanks Tom), the bartender experienced, personable and helpful to make us feel welcomed with a full spread of beer and choices. We even bought two venue t shirts then (which I will retirn and drop off at the front door soon). Each time since has been worse and worse. Today, the small menu was even smaller since three sandwich items were out of stock which the bartender didn't mention up front but seemed to know including not revealing to another customer who attempted to order one of the same items I did after us. Several beers were "kicked" and the drink choices unbalanced and incomplete. Plus the order was mishandled (write order items down please) and the flavor just so subpar it ruined a sorely needed Friday afternoon date. If you are gonna charge $60 to $80 for a couple outing of burgers, fries and two draft beers then it had better be good. Shame on me for trying this time. No more. read more

Good restaurant and tap house We came in on a weekday for lunch and it was very quiet. Their beer selection is outstanding with tons of drafts. The service was ok, but we were the only ones in there. Burger was excellent, wings were really good, too. We tried the jerk chicken wings and they were VERY SPICY! Really flavorful, too. Great place with a cool industrial vibe. read more

Beer was awesome. We only got an appetizer but it was really good. Amazing pretzel with beer cheese. The staff was super friendly and attentive. read more

First and last time. How many ways can you mess up a burger and a salad? Let me count the ways. First off, who packages a to-go salad in the box with a steaming burger? So my salad is wilted before I get started. The onion rings smell like they were fried in old bacon grease and taste rubbery. The only thing right is they cooked my burger medium well but it has no flavor. At least the bun is soft. Won' be returning. read more

We took our dogs here to get them out of the house. Cute little Patio! The bacon mac & cheese was on point. I got it for our dogs, but after tasting it, I didn't really want to share. The beers could've been a little bit colder, but the service was great and everyone was super friendly. We didn't try it, but we sure could smell the barbecue! We'll definitely try that next time we go back - without the dogs read more

Ok this honest review has to be written. So we ALL know the joke in chesterfield is "this place has the worst service". I get that. We all have gone knowing that. But after a 2 year break we've tried to go back. Visit 1 (2 weeks ago) - only customers there (cause people know). We were there 2.5 hours! To get dinner. Just two of us. My wife ordered shrimp tacos. Waitress comes back saying "sorry we don't have shrimp but he ran to grocery store to get more." Ok whatever. We wait. Then 30 mins later "oh actually we have no taco shells". So she orders a burger. 2.5 hours! Visit 2 (tonight) - 2 tables seated. Right off the bat "so we have no chicken so ignore everything on the menu with chicken." Ok that's 30% of the menu. WHO IS IN CHARGE OF SUPPLIES. So 2 of our meals come. Then 15 minutes later the third meal. Then 30 minutes after (and we're all done eating), my son's SALAD comes. A salad. When there's only 2 tables seated why is there a 30 minute gap between first plate and late plate? Also , the shrimp taco shrimp wasn't peeled so you have to take it out of the taco and peel it? Like this place is a bad joke. These are not exceptions. It's every time. We tried waiting a couple years. The place is a dumpster fire. It's not the staffs fault. They're nice and pleasant. The food when you get it is actually good. It's MANAGEMENT. They need to know that the entire surrounding neighborhoods use Brew as a punchline. "At least it's not Brew" is a thing people say. How can you have good food, craft beer, lovely staff, and fail so hard. read more

I have been in the mood for 2 days for a burger. Decided to hit up Brew to try a burger from them. Asked the server if I should get the "Blue"min Onion burger or the Smash and before I could finish he said the Smash. I'm not a picky person in general but when I am in the mood for something it's got to hit or I leave disappointed. I must say the smash burger hit the spot. This is going to be my new burger spot over the old Burger Bach I used to cling to for my fix. read more

Stopped in with a friend on a Wednesday night around 7:30 PM. We both had the polynesian pork tacos and sweet potato chips (homemade!). It was absolutely delicious! We were pleasantly surprised. The waiter was excellent too. I had a caramel apple cider that was also great! read more

My husband and I spotted in after a hike at Pocahontas State Park. Brew is a quaint little gastropub with a nice outdoor patio. Brooklyn, our server was very attentive and helpful. They had a great selection of beers and ciders. We ordered the BLT Pimento Burger and the "Blue"min Onion Burger and split them. Both were very good. I liked the "blue"min onion burger a little more than the BLT Pimento. I would recommend going to Brew! There is a lot of parking and it looked like a good spot for a group outdoors. read more

The food was amazing here. It had great flavor and the chef was able to accommodate to our diets. Jason was our server and he did a phenomenal job! It's a nice small place for a quick bit to eat!!! read more

Super friendly staff. Great food! I had the "Blue"-min burger with hand-cut fries. The fries were so delicious! Would definitely come again. read more

Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen - "Blue"-min Onion Burger Hand Cut French Fries - New American Near Me - Chesterfield, Virginia

Okay, the service is abysmal, neglectful, and rude. There is only one thing worth ordering, here. The tacos. Burger was a like a rock. Flavor..nope. Greek salad was just leaves. It had one small piece of tomato. Our drinks were empty for quite a while. We got someone else to get more. Plates were never cleared. Any complaints? Um my friend did not eat her burger. She wanted to send it back, but the waitress didn't come back for about 20 minutes. She gave up and shared some food. They were reluctant to take the burger off the bill. She enjoyed one of my tacos, and attempted to eat a pretzel. The pretzels were hard. Definitely wouldn't return. read more

Brew craft bar and kitchen needs waitstaff. There is no one at the door to seat you. We had to go up and get a menu. I got the Blue minion onion cheeseburger with fig. It was good and cooked to order. My grandson get the fried chicken burger with french fries . I also got pasta salad as my side. The pasta salad was Mediterranean and delicious. My Mom got chili and fries. The chili was too spicy for her taste. They were out of tea as the waiter had not had time to make any, so my mom got water. read more

I ordered takeout and wasn't disappointed. Two farm burgers with salads and zucchini fries. I will order this again. Quick service and delicious. read more

Awesome place to chill. On the patio tonight with puppy. Can't wait until until I can get here for Trivia night on a Tuesday.

The ambiance was great. Lots of different beer choices plus mixed drinks. Onion rings where handmade and great. Service was nice. Food came out quick. Definitely go back read more

5 months later... this place is really slipping. Customer service is gone, beer selection is okay & Food quality is down. It's really too bad as we really liked this place & the location. read more

Just walked in, with my family for lunch on Christmas Eve. As soon as we walked in, the cook was in the kitchen window shaking his head at us & manager rolled his eyes. If the workers are so not wanting to welcome customers, then be CLOSED!!! Will not be going back to this restaurant, AWFUL & RUDE! read more

Was looking for a place local and new that we haven't tried and saw Brew, decided to try it, menu looked good. Walked in saw one waitress/employee helping another table. We sat down and waited and waited, no one greeted us or helped us. Daughter and I tried talking to each other but a DJ was playing loud music and we couldn't carry a conversation so after several long minutes we left and walked next door to El Caporal and service was outstanding and food was awesome. read more

Look. I love the convenience of this place. It is close. They have a ton of beers. The food is really good and creative, albeit small portions for the price. It's a small business and at this time frame, they need to do whatever they can to survive (higher prices for the portion received). But that comes at a price. I have frequented this place for years. And the reality is the service has been consistently terrible. I mean awful. Servers who "don't like beer" or "the menu doesn't match the availability of menu items (we are out of XYZ)." I go because their beers are plentiful and they rotate. The vibe is great. Small. Quiet. Cool seating area (except the bar room chair are not super uncomfortable) I like it here. But I want to love it. I just can't. Anyone in my neighborhood who talks about this place continually agrees that it's about the worst service they've ever had. There is a kids menu (which is not printed) but the servers seem to never know what it is - you have to ask. AND You have a question about a beer? Don't get your hopes up, on at least three occasions a serves has said either they are new to work there or they don't like beer. Don't count on the menu or untapped to be accurate. To their credit they constantly rotate beers once a keg taps. But they do a terrible job of keeping the menu up to date. Flavors of food again are great. So come here with the expectation of enjoying your food/drink, but have plenty of time to spare. You won't be checked on regularly. It's best to order when you have 3/4 to 1/2 a beer left. Any more you'll be running an empty glass for a WHILE. Fix service. Fix communication. This could be 5/5 but right now it's a 3/5 (at best). read more

Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen - Patio and unknown IPA - New American Near Me - Chesterfield, Virginia

Three meals. The menu has a wide variety of excellent dishes and I've never been disappointed by anything. The food is creative and innovative as well as delicious. The service is lackluster. The employees in my three visits tend to talk to each other and just kind of "hang around". They're nice when they're in action, but that's not all that often. That's consistent for all three of my visits. I'm not a beer drinker, so maybe I miss some of the dining value of Brew, but for simply eating a meal and getting served well, it's still very good. I thought it was slightly expensive for this genre of food, but not outrageously so. I'm sure I'll go back. read more

We walked in with a few people from our party, before we could tell them how many people were with us we were told that we could not be served. What a disappointment. We are from out of town and came to this place on a whim only to be refused immediately with no regard. Felt like racial profiling but I digress. We will not return. read more

This is a small bar with a very nice selection of beer. I was here on a Wednesday night and they were playing Singo. A combination of bingo and name that song. It was very loud when I first entered, but I quickly acclimated. The music was great and there was a nice crowd. I ordered the beer braised beef sandwich which came with fries. The sand which tasted much better than it looked. I would definitely get it again. The fries looked better than they tasted. Also I would have preferred Heinz ketchup to what I assume was there house made ketchup. All in all a friendly nice place. They had a good sour ale from Belgium on draft, which was very cool. This was worth the extra 10 minutes from my hotel! read more

I will not go back. The service there is horrible. Don't ask for a refill you probably won't get it, I didn't. Ask at least twice to get a to go box because they won't listen the first time. Makes ya feel so unwelcome. The atmosphere is not pleasant. Defiantly not impressed. read more

Food was terrible. It was not cooked well, with a hard bun and not cooked to specific order. We asked for medium and got well done burgers. I also watched as the cook scratched her head and neck while gloved and proceeded to assemble my burger. Poor hygiene. I think I could have made a better burger. Small, what someone would call, left over lettuce and no cheese for the pimento cheese burger. Don't waste your money. read more

Best Place in town for good food and cold beer, highly recommend. Love supporting small businesses.

Well I ordered delivery since it's virus time right now so I didn't expect it to be exactly perfect but it was just awful. Completely overcooked and overpriced for what I got. I can honestly say Wendy's is better than what I had from here. read more

0 stars if I could- absolutely appalling. Tried to go in today at 1:00 (close at 5:00) manager and cook rolling eyes and shaking head? Have never seen behavior like this at all. If owner wants to stay in business, I'd suggest hiring a new team. read more

My son brought me here for lunch. The burger and fries were delicious. Jason Garris is a very talented cook. We enjoyed our visit. I highly recommend this place. Excellent choices on the menu. read more

3 stars for the food. It would be 4 and the reason it's not is because in the last 5 visits not including COVID the vibe was off no matter which one of my friend or "family" I showed up with and it's starting to become obvious that my friends were correct about the awkward stares to certain groups read more

We were looking for a new "local's joint " close to home. The bartender was helpful, but the beer selection was limited to hoppy and sours. The most disheartening thing was the price per oz for beer. It was $7 - $9 per beer, which is higher than anyone else in town for a 22 oz beer, let alone these were served in 12 oz plastic cups. No matter where I have a beer, I won't pay double the going rate. read more

Food was good. Great carytown type experience right here in Chester. Great place to grab a drink.
