The mini mule was tasty even in the non alcoholic form. The star is the sweet potato fries with aioli. Double smash burger was tasty and the others were happy with the beet burger that is available as a sandwich or the patty atop a salad. We sat at one of the 10+ picnic tables in the shade and they even brought a chair for one of our party who would have had a hard time with the leg swing.

One friend ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and got a fruity vinaigrette instead. Another friend ordered a burger and they forgot the bacon. A third friend asked for his burger well-done, but it came out medium, also with no bacon. When he asked the server if it looked well-done, she said she didn't know what well-done looks like. He asked if she could get a new one so he wouldn't get sick, and she said she'd check with the kitchen. No apology. It took 25 minutes for the new burger to come out, and by then we had been there for over an hour and a half. When she finally brought it out, she asked if he wanted a box to take it home. Still no bacon on the burger. Also, no apology again. Overall, not a great experience. Will not be back.

This brew pub strikes a great balance between laid-back charm and quality offerings. The atmosphere…read moreis cozy and intimate, with dim lighting that adds warmth and character to the space. The wrap-around bar gives it a welcoming, communal feel--perfect for grabbing a seat solo or catching up with friends. The beer selection is limited, but what they do have is decent, albeit a little on the heavier side. It's the kind of place where you don't need a massive tap list--just a few good options done right. What really surprised me were the wings. Locally sourced and noticeably larger than your average bar wings, they were absolutely packed with flavor--easily some of the best I've ever had. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with the perfect amount of dry rub. Worth the visit for those alone. If you're looking for a relaxed spot with great food, good beer, and a neighborhood-pub kind of feel, this place delivers.

We stopped here while biking the Adena Bikeway because it looked like a cute "bike side" place to…read moregrab food. We were honestly excited!! baby sleeping, toddler ready to eat, outdoor seating available. It should have been the perfect stop. It went downhill fast. My husband asked the host for highchairs and both were broken. Wobbly, broken buckle straps (safety issue) we don't risk it with our kids. After asking again, they found another one. Not a great start, but okay. Then we waited at least 10 minutes before our server even came to get drink orders. When she finally did, we placed our food order and she didn't write a single thing down. By the time we needed refills, our server had completely disappeared for 20-30 minutes. Eventually a different server brought our meals. When my husband asked for drink refills, she told us we could refill them ourselves at the station in the front. What?? We've never been told to go refill our own drinks at a sit down restaurant ‍ My husband asked where our server was, and the second server clearly wanted nothing to do with helping us since we weren't "her table." He ended up going inside to find a manager, and the entire front area was full of staff gossiping and arguing with each other. Total chaos. The manager eventually came out and did absolutely nothing to make the situation right. On top of the service issues: * Outdoor seating with no lids for drinks = bugs flying into cups * They clearly need new highchairs if you're advertising as family friendly * Food was very sub par. Mac and cheese was NOT it, brisket was just okay. Dry but good flavor I guess LOL. We were really disappointed. This stop had so much potential, but the service and overall experience were a mess. Honestly, skip this place and pack a lunch!!!!. ‍

I thought the Valley Girl was on the sour side for me. I liked the Leichthaus, crisp and clean, 1st time with that style, but I like the Kolsch style beers. I chose the southern Ohio poutine, it fantastic, gravy made with their Appervation Imperial Stout. The gravy is thick, full imperial stout flavor with a note of bourbon. The portion they serve is enough for two. Richelle got the mystic wings with garlic parmesan sauce. Fantastic idea the wings are very nice without sauce, then you only need to dip the for an added flavor element. Garlic Parmesan is thick, almost like yogurt, it has a quick hit of spicy garlic, then it goes away. The best part is it's balanced, you don't have garlic flavor in your mouth a half hour later.

My husband and I each got a flight of beers to try and a classic hotdog with onion and peppers added, though I opted for mustard as an additional topping and he opted for sauerkraut. We got each of our pups a plain hotdog and the man at the food truck was so sweet and pre-cut them into pieces for us to feed them. We can't wait to come back a third time, they are just so good! Staff is always super friendly as well. The bathrooms are clean and have really fun chalkboard walls to leave funny messages or cute memories. I wholly recommend stopping in here for a well-deserved drink after being outside all day.
