Been here before a while back and it was strained. This time the atmosphere and ambiance were much improved. It's a pub-casual environment and feels relaxed and casual. The service was good, and prompt. No complaints. The primary issue on this review was that I ordered the Buffalo Schnitzel. I had thought it was going to be with some buffalo sauce, but balanced, as the menu simply describes it as "tenderized pork loin, panko fried, buffalo sauce, Caeser salad, bacon, blue cheese" But unfortunately it came out with at least a 1/4 cup of Frank's Red Hot drenching the top of the meat. It so overwhelmed everything, and was not brushed on or anything. Will return to try other options but this visit was a miss.

A great spot for after work drink, or comfort food dinner with family and/or friends. The food is served up by Chef T, and is the epitome of comfort foot. All dishes were well prepared and met or exceeded expectations. I had the soup of the day which was tasty, and good. Then I had the Ballard's Corner Cheesesteak, which was shaved ribeye, with peppers, cheese, and was so yummy. I'll say it's not Philly Cheesesteak worthy of the best there, but for a steak and cheese outside Philly, it's a solid contender and definitely worth trying. Service was great, with exactly the right level of attentiveness, prompt delivery of all items, from the great craft beer selection, to the food. A bonus touch, Chef T came out later to say hello and ask how everything was!

But we had a friend in town visiting, and so we took him and our exchange student out. Much to our 49ers family's surprise, we found out that it's also a "Niners" place, so it was great to see local support of the team. The establishment is like many Vermont pubs, very low key and straightforward, down to earth. Great, friendly staff, and attentive. We ended up ordering a lot of food - fried pickles, burgers, etc. and it was all good pub food. None of it is like "Michelin star" but it's certainly good food, served in a good pub atmosphere. We'll definitely be going back at some point.

There was no doubt that we would stop at Blackback Pub for lunch when passing through Waterbury. We…read morewere fortunate enough to snag two seats at the bar on a very busy Memorial Day afternoon. Since it was a national holiday, the Waterbury Patriot Burger called out to me. Great choice- nicely spiced, cooked perfectly on a fresh brioche bun. The accompanying kettle chips were yummy. I chose to have a mug of Hill Farmstead Symposia-a delicious Rauchbier poured from a LUKR tap (side-pull). What a treat. Jane chose sliders that quickly disappeared. Her beer choice was Common People from Bluejacket-a micro brewery in Washington, DC. You can always count on the best beer selection anywhere at Blackback Pub. I only wish we were staying in town longer so we could enjoy more of their deliciousness. The bartender was very friendly and attentive despite being slammed. Looking forward to stopping by again when in the area.

We were in town and our friend, who lives in the area, was very excited to take us to this place so we went as his guests. I was unimpressed and very disappointed with our experience. For a brewery they don't have much beer on tap, and my burger was burnt and had no flavor. Bar tender, a very young girl, was rude and ignored us the whole time we were there. I added one star because they let us eat on the counter behind the bar, otherwise they would only get 1 star. I left the bar smelling like burnt food and grease.

IPA's, Mexican lager (think corona but better), blueberry, pale ales, Italian pils...the list goes on and on - literally something for everyone. Pricing is extremely reasonable - $6 for a pint on average. They have a ton of merch but have limited cans to go. Folino's pizza is right next store and they'll even bring it right to you while you grab your beer! The only *negative* I can find is the space is very open and industrial which doesn't encourage you to hang out for too long. Grab a beer or two, eat your pizza, and it's time to pack up! But we still enjoyed the experience and felt comfortable while there. Highly recommend stopping by if you're visiting Shelburne farms or the museum as it's just minutes away!

Three 3" hard "tenders" and a bunch of deep fried french toast sticks that arent all that dissimilar from those sold in the freezer section of the grocery. It was more of a kid's meal but it wasn't listed as such. I had hoped for something more elevated with a more homemade touch. Was it bad? No. Was i disappointed? Yes. That said, this place feels very homey and that I like a lot.
