A german-inspired bierhall that's true to it's intentions, Bronson's is a popular one in the Arlington area and rightfully so. With plenty of tvs, open-style seating, and a menu of german bar eats, there's a lot to like with this establishment. You can either order at the bar or use your phone to scan the barcode at the tables and pay as you go in which someone will bring your order to you upon completion. If you're an introvert or just hate talking to people, this is the way to go. As for beer, there's a large variety available on tap here and they are served in large servings. About 16 on tap, it comes in either half liter or full liter. Tons of German style beer such as Hefeweizen, kolsch, and the Optimal Wit by Port City, one of my favorites. As for food, think of mostly bar food with some German handhelds which include sausages/bratwurst which is what I usually order; they come with peppers/onions and sauerkraut. The also have burgers, pizza, and different kinds of pretzels. You can also go with their hodgepodge of appetizers such as tacos, wings, pierogis, nachos, wontons, and others. It's a bigger menu than you would think for a bierhall. It's a popular spot for me and my coworkers whenever we're in Arlington. Always look forward to hanging here for some beer and to watch a game of some sorts.
Best time to come here is Happy Hour before 6, since crowds of young people flock this place for late night drinks. Incidentally, I always notice a very healthy under-30 crowd. Came here at 5:30 and loved the HH specials. Generous TV screen set up and spacious hall adds to the atmosphere of merrinent. The bar staff is super attentive, which is appreciated. Overall recommend.
I LOVEE this bar!!! It's my favorite ambiance, vibe, food, etc. This spot is always rowdy and they have tons of tvs, great food options, and drinks. October is my favorite time to come to this bar because they have a reallyyyyy goood October fest beer. We came on the weekend and it was already hard to find a table around 12:30 pm. There were a couple of tables reserved so we couldn't sit there. We ordered: October fest beer it came in the 1L beer stein 10/10 Bronson Reuben Sandwich with tater tots 9/10 Huge sandwich! Bursting with flavor Pizza Pretzel 9/10 Gigantic pretzels super delicious. I love their queso but it didn't come with the queso. I didn't get a picture I was too busy easy Overall, this is my favorite bar and a solid choice. Especially because I don't like bar food like that. I highly recommend this spot.
Nice indoor beer spot for Happy Hour. Came here after work and it's a good place to chat, watch the game, etc Fried pickles are an acquired taste but the mozzarella bites were good! I also asked for a sweet cocktail so they gave me a summer coolade (?) and it was nice and refreshing.
Super chill pub with a great outdoor area in Arlington! Service was quick and good. Food was ok: - Stuffed pretzel: 10/10 (probably the best dish we ordered! It was cheesy and savory. Loved the dipping sauce it came with.) - Sausage board: 8/10 (decent variety of sausages with mustard on the side) - Buffalo wings: 6/10 (ok wings) - Beer: 7/10 (a lot of the beer selection was out of stock by the time we got there. Beer was good but it would've been better if the beer was a bit colder.)
Been here recently and this is a great sports bar. There is alot of seating but can get packed if there are big games going on. There is outdoor seating with heat lamps which are very warm! The food and drinks are good. You scan the barcode at your table to order and pay and they bring it out to you so there is no hassle to wait for a check or waiter.
This pub is super chill. You walk in and find your spot wherever you find it. They have really good food!! I got old bay wings (made crispy/well done) and I also got the berry salad and added steak. My sister got the blue crab pretzel and just as a heads up, ITS HUGE! Not an item for one person. For a drink, I got Sauvignon Blanc. All items are reasonable priced and there is outdoor seating. It can get SUPER loud inside so that can be a bit over stimulating. I found myself plugging my ears with my fingers There is street parking or garages around - me and my sister took the train from DC and called it a day. To order, you can scan the barcode on your table and the server will bring your food to the table. Super fast and easy.
The manager (maybe bar manager) is AMAZING here. The whole staff is on top of everything and works great as a team. Food and drinks are incredibly fast for how busy it was (game 7 basketball night, standing room only) and it's such a great environment. Great food and beer, better service. Would be here all the time if we were from the area!
Came to watch a basketball game, and was surprised my friends and i were able to get a seat. Usually Bronson's is packed when games are on. However, this time it had a nice amount of people. They also had live music, the singer was amazing. I wish i would have gotten his name. I got what I have gotten before which is the sliders, which were delicious and not too heavy. I split that, and a caesar salad with my friend which was a nice size portion and super good. We got the prickly pear margarita, and were not a fan at all. I had one sip and it tasted as if I was drinking hot sauce. I tried to add sprite and water to make it better but unfortunately it was undrinkable. My friend said she has had this drink before and it was a different color and tasted different, so maybe it was just made incorrectly. Not sure I will try it again, but my curiosity is getting the better of me so we shall see. We finished off our meal with the cookie skillet, which was a large portion of a giant chocolate chip cookie and ice cream. It was surprisingly only $7 and was enough for 3 people. Great place for some shareables, and drinks.
Surprisingly great food for a beer hall! Reasonably priced too. I love the vibes of the indoor and outdoor seating. There's plenty of tables in both spaces too which is great for big groups. It's seat yourself and you don't really have wait staff, you order with a QR code. Great vibes with lots of live music
I had been here twice, once in early January 2024 and once on Saturday, December 14, 2024, both were the same friend's birthday party. For his December 2023 birthday, he decided to wait until after holidays as it was a busy time for him & people in general. I'll into more detail about the December visit, but the January visit I had a burger & fries and a beer. It was decent, but nothing to write home about. In December, my girlfriend & I had a tight schedule on that Saturday and determined we were going to need to eat there, as we had something after the birthday party as well. I wasn't that enthusiastic about this (as I felt it was kind of overpriced, mediocre, and if we had time we could've eaten before or after), but we didn't have much choice. Both visits the inside area was crowded, but we did the outside patio area, which was cold in the winter, but not really too bad with some heat lamps around. In January, we were at a couple of high top tables, but the December visit was at a long picnic bench. I had forgotten from the January visit, but this was something that was annoying; there is a scanner to get the menu, and then you had to place the order on your phone with no servers except for when they bring the food/drink to your table # and to clean. I didn't like this setup. For one I prefer looking on a physical menu instead of scrolling through a small phone to determine what I want. I like when a server comes around (or ordering at a counter). I'm sure you could go inside to order food with the bartender, but that would be hassle with us being outside and being a crowded bar. On this long outside table, the scanner was only on our side of the long table, which was fine for us. But some at the party had to come from way over at the other end of the table just to scan as their side didn't have, which we thought was stupid; they should've been on both sides of the table. Also, it asks for a tip ahead of time. I'm not going to tip ahead of time until I know whatever service I'm getting is decent. In January, I left a couple of bucks in cash since it's not even full service. In December, we left and forgot since we paid up front (oh well). We waited a little bit as we weren't that hungry but knew we needed to eat. We waited about 30 minutes to see what a few people got. We determined the pizza looked good. Someone let us sample the pretzel; it was decent, but I didn't want some big bulky pretzel for dinner, which wasn't that great. We decided to get hush puppies & split pizza. The hush puppies were excellent, the best I've had in while! The pizza was good, but plenty of better pizza places, but it hit the mark enough with the chicken & mushroom. If my friend does his birthday party here again, I might try to eat before (or after). But if we were going to eat here, I'd definitely recommend the hush puppies. Pizza I'd be fine with getting again.
Just Wow. My Granddaughters LOVE To Come Here And Say This Is By Far Their Favorite Place. Both managers (Aaron And James) Are Awesome And Makes All Of Their Patrons Feel Welcome. Aaron And James, Just Know You Guys Are AWESOME! #RollBronson Also Laine Is Awesome As Well.

Stopped in on a Sunday and was excited to see they had a small Bloody Mary bar. They had their regular menu and a brunch menu. The chicken and waffles looked good, but I've had way better. Aside from that, the service wasn't great- a lot of people working, with little attentiveness, even when sitting at the bar. read more

Always enjoy watching a game at Bronson. Seating can be difficult to grab when there is a big game on but usually we're able to snag a seat or two! Ordering from the table QR code is always quick and the bar is just as fast. I appreciate the variety of drink options (especially as someone who doesn't love beer) and the food is delicious. I highly recommend one of their stuffed pretzels or sweet potato fries! read more

Such a fun spot for good food and beer. We came during happy hour and had $7 .5L beers (photo) which were delicious! We ordered the soft pretzel - amazing, sausage appetizer- fun to sample a variety, and a burger with sweet potato fries. The burger patty was on the smaller side but had a good flavor. The fries were great. You order via QR code and they bring it out to you. Water is self service. Service was prompt for us, but we went pretty early and it wasn't crowded. It's usually packed and sometimes they have live music so late nights and weekends might take a longer. Overall, a solid spot for beer with decent food and a fun atmosphere. Prices are average for Arlington, beer HH special was great! read more

I really enjoyed Bronson Bierhall! It's such a fun spot to meet up with friends. They have long tables with benches to accommodate large parties. They also have high tops. I ordered a chicken caesar wrap and sweet potato fries. I ordered on the QR code/app, and I did not realize the wrap already came with fries. So I ended up with regular AND sweet potato fries. Everything tasted great, and I got to share the fries with the table. The service took a while, but it makes sense since they were pretty busy even on a Wednesday night. Next time I am going to come back and try some beer! But for now, I can say the food is good and the vibes are great. I hope to come back soon. read more

I now understand why my son & his fiancé love Bronson Bierhall. The food was delicious! We got the sausage plate, cheese curds, fried pickles and a pretzel. Once ordering via QR code it came out fairly quickly. There is a large number of seating options both inside and outside. read more

Reauben sandwich is a must! Probably best one I've ever had. Beer selection is fantastic too, with some great German styles. Even paired well with the Heffweissen. Live music for the win to top it off. Ordering from the QR code on the table made it easy to not have to hunt done a server. Next time I'm in town I will be back! read more

Fun place in Arlington to visit. I met a friend on a busy Friday evening. It was pretty much standing room only for the first hour or so that we were there until a table was available. Even with all of that it was not an issue at all grabbing a drink as there were like 4 bartenders behind bar that night and they were all very efficient. That night in particular there was a band playing and I love live music as much as the next person, but it was pretty loud. Not a problem as it was a Friday and Bronson Bierhall is a pretty large establishment. When we were finally able to snag some seats at the bar we decided to order some food and i was very surprised how good it was for such a busy night and more so for a location i would assume primarily serves alcohol instead of food. We ordered a Jalapeño Cheddar pretzel and the Cubano to share and they were both amazing. And delivered surprisingly quick. The Pretzel is the perfect size to share and has that homemade pretzel taste you are looking for. It was served up with some melty nacho cheese and a side of mustard. The Cubano was equally delicious and i kind of regret not just getting a whole one for my self. But i will keep that in mind for my next visit. read more
I'm shocked that this was my first time visiting this place after having lived here for 5 years now. It's a great spot for game day. My girlfriend and I invited our friends to Bronson for game day last Sunday. Boy was it crowded at 1pm. Be sure to get there early if you want a table. The food was actually very good. We ordered the blue crab pretzel, the bratwurst, and the chicken bratwurst. The blue crab pretzel was amazing! Probably the best I've had. It was basically a crab dip inside of a pretzel. The bratwurst was super delicious! Perfect way to bring in October. The chicken bratwurst was also very flavorful. The drinks were great! Being a Bierhall, it lives up to the name. They had plenty of beers on tap and multiple different sizes. They have a 1L mug and it's worth it for around $16. The Oktoberfest beer they have on tap is one I highly recommend. The ambiance is super open and casual. There's tons of TVs and they have NFL Sunday Ticket to be able to play all the games. Inside has a better view of all the games but outdoors is definitely nice when the weather is nice. People brought their dogs and it's super accommodating for pets. The service was really good for how busy it was. They did mess up and give our champagne away but they made it better and got us a replacement quickly. Shoutout to the staff for being super accommodating. Highly recommend this place if you want a game day spot to hangout with your group. We'll definitely be back. read more
