Both times I've visited I've been blown away by how friendly and professional the staff are. Ask for Isaiah and/or Anna if you can, they're both fantastic at their jobs.

We were truly blown away by how laid back they were, and as a result we were able to properly relax after a long day of driving. Whether you're staying the night or just passing through town, Drekker is the de facto stop to see.

They put thought into the ascetics and design of the place and it has a gray open feel. They also offer a nice sized menu for a place that doesn't specialize in food.

Once we were noticed the staff was very friendly though.

When I sat down with my laptop and my delicious beer, it was quiet. Just after I started plugging away on my laptop and sipping at this great beer, the musician started up. He was loud. I'd have been fine if it wasn't super loud. Like if maybe people at nearby tables could have a conversation without shouting. But nope, this was just about concert volume. 78 to 83 decibels which Yale Environmental Health & Safety says, "Level at which sustained exposure may result in hearing loss." The folks at the next table were shouting to continue their conversation. Friendly service. Great little local brewery. But it was one excellent beer and out. Sorry, Swing Barrel. Maybe next time!

I've been here many times over the recent years but I'm finally getting around to writing a review,…read moreafter thinking about how much I enjoyed my last visit here. Junkyard added this West Fargo taproom (originally brewery is in Moorhead) when they renovated a former bank building - which they did a great transformation. This location has tons of both indoor and outdoor seating and has multiple levels of both. The large street level patio has more shade and the large rooftop patio has more sun. On this last visit, we sat on the rooftop patio, in a nice alcove area that probably seats about 10+ people between the wicker chairs and the high top. This would make a good hang out spot if you are coming with a group. The beers are always good, with a wide variety of options. For this visit, even though I was tempted to get the PB&J Sour (which actually tastes just like a PB&J), I ultimately had (two of) the Mango Orange Lime slushy drink. It was so good, and the staff commented as well on how it's a favorite of theirs. And speaking of staff, they are always very friendly and attentive, which serving you at the bar or stopping by your table to see if you need anything. Junkyard always has popcorn on hand, and while they have tasty pizzas as well, we just stuck with the popcorn and drinks on this visit. They actually had free Sandy's Donuts as well, and I don't know if that is a normal Sunday thing or something special - but we didn't take any anyhow. Lastly, it's a good spot if you have a big group as they have plenty of long tables.

Multiple floors, inside/outside space, and of course the same popcorn that you know and love from their other location. They even had space on the inside for a philly food truck to set up a table and be slinging out some grub for those that were drinking their beers. We got a set of five small pours, including two from other breweries that were in town due to Foolers Ball: Puff Tart XL - Raspberry, Lemon, Pineapple An Imperial Sour Ale with Raspberry, Lemon, Pineapple, and Marshmallow Flavoring from thebrewingprojekt Late Nite: Red Velvet Whoopie Pie A Pastry Sour from definitivebrewing that features hundreds of pounds of fresh raspberry, red velvet cake, vanilla cream, and brown sugar. Cheem Creese Cake A Raspberry Cheesecake Sour that tastes just like cheese cake covered in berries. New Zealand Cheat Codes An Imperial IPA hopped with Nelson Sauvin, Moutere, and Wai-iti. This is the definition of a great IPA featuring New Zealand "cheater hops" and it was so dank and tropical. Queen Size An Imperial Stout with Marshmallow and Peanut Butter.

So PR factor, for the young lady who took our name and amount of our party is a 1. Learn to be friendly, period. Thanks goodness an older person stepped in to take over. The first time that we tried to eat here, it was a no go. The same young lady, using the same monotone, unfriendly tone, said "yeah you're looking at 35 or more minute wait", then turned away from us. Ok thanks. The inside is wood tones. In the lobby are items that show a championship for their bbq sauce. To me it has a cowboy/western kind of thing and it works. In the dining room are many tables and booths and it's comfy. There is also a bar in place, if you prefer going there. Fast forward to last evening. We were in at about 5:15. We had about a 15 minute wait. The amount of people entering and leaving is huge. I saw couples and a lot of big tables in place. I saw servers hoofing it all over the place, talk about busy. No one sits idle here. Ah the food...I'm telling you someone is seriously doing something right here. Our server showed up promptly and was great. Kudos to Grace, you're doing a good job! I ordered the bbq brisket wrap with fries, my husband ordered the sirloin with a side of beans and a side salad. I had tea and a Guinness for him. The drinks came out quickly, along with my husband's side salad. I almost ordered the side salad as one of my sides but I'm glad I didn't because it was really a big size for being a side. My husband said it was fresh and tasted great. Out came our meals. The wrap actually kind of reminded me of a chimichanga, it was grilled on the outside and it was so good, I'm used to wraps not being grilled, but I really liked this. The brisket was melt in your mouth good and had just the right amount of bbq sauce, along with grilled onions that were sweet and delicious. The fries were good, nothing special, but just good. My husband was definitely pleased with his steak, juicy and grilled to perfection. He said the beans were great. Our server checked on us multiple times, along with handling other tables, her service was appreciated. For the two of us it was about 66.00 dollars without tip. Just an fyi, if you use a credit card, you will be charged a 3% surcharge to offset processing costs. This place is hugely popular and I can see why. It's got it going on with good food, great service and a nice ambiance going on. So would I come back here? Of course, it's just a good place. We'll be back for sure.
