I recently hosted a bridal shower here and could NOT have picked a more perfect venue to have it!…read more I had never hosted an event like this for 32+ women (plus a groom to be) and the lower level reception area was perfect! Even more perfect was Jackie the Event Manager (not sure of her exact title)!! She was so helpful from before I even booked the event through the day of it!! I always feel bad bugging people because I am so detail oriented but every time I called Jackie she was so gracious and understanding about my worried and did everything feasible to allay any concerns I had. And of course, I had no reason for any worries as she delivered in every area! Katie worked the room and did an amazing job- no one was every in need of a drink or any food items, etc. The food was great and all were impressed by the ambiance in the room! Those 2 ladies could easily run their own banquet hall! I don't live near Frankfort but highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a venue in the south suburbs. Thanks again Jackie and Katie for making the bridal shower perfect in every way!

Hummel figurines, German army action figures, model WW2 airplanes, rifles, stuffed bears, rams, foxes, goat, pheasants, cuckoo clocks, German army model tanks, cars, trains, antler chandeliers, beer steins, more antlers. I mean, wow. Also 4.little private niches for parties of 2. And an alpenhorn. And band on week ends. Beer: all draft are German. Big selection. Wine: good selection. Food: reg Ameican stuff (If you MUST!), burgers,salads, fish, pasta; but that's not why you come here. It's for the belly busting German food. Included with dinner, gratis were breads, flavored butters, crudites, liverwurst. Nice surprise! Dinners include soup or salad, 2 sides & whopping portions. Our group of 4 had goulash soup, liver dumpling soup, 2 salads; chicken schnitzel, Kassler ripchen, Jagerschnitzel, schnitzel a la Holstein. Sides of spaetzle, dumpling, red cabbage, veg. Black Forest cake for dessert. Quality was VERY good. Very large portions! Service was attentive & thoughtful, friendly but not intrusive. Parking is free & plentiful. Easy to find, in a strip mall, right off Rt 45, 5 mins south of I-80. Highly recommend.

5 Stars for our server for being awesome!…read more We ordered the typical Pork Schnitzel, yes the portion is huge (well, for the price.. it should be). Two people can share. But oh boy, it's bland! If not for the gravy and side dish, no taste at all. Beer is ok. It's a typical biergarten, very loud inside... can't hear the music or the entertainer singing some german songs.

Brothership Brewing is a great craft beer option in the south suburbs! Located in an industrial…read morepart of Mokena, it's the perfect sized, small business brewery to visit. They specialize in New England IPA and Stout varietals but have a little something for everyone. I visited on a Sunday where they have a $5 full pour special on most of their beers. When visiting, i got the Classified Hard Seltzer which was inspired by a Shirley Temple. It was mighty delicious and easy to drink. Of the other beers sampled, my group's favorites were the Hazy Hop Rocket, Peche Du Ciel Saison, and BA Space Debris (Hazelnut, Vanilla, Coconut). The flavors were fresh and some different than any other beers we've tried in the best way. Prices are very fair. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Brothership Brewing. The owners grew up in the area and have truly creating something special to bring to the community. Staff all seemed very nice and they even have board games available to play. It was great to try so many beers on tap and love that they have a good amount of their beers to go. Be sure to make a spot out to enjoy! Tip: check out their drinks specials and events like music and trivia to enjoy!

We always enjoy chatting with Jeremy--he takes the time to break down our craft selections and guide us toward the best options for our tastes. The entire staff is incredibly knowledgeable about the beer and other offerings.

Pretty okay prices for the quality. There's a lot of flavors and variety. Can get some on tap, or get bottles and cans to go. It's certainly a place to find local products. There's not a whole lot of room inside, but there's enough for a bar and you can taste some on site. Has many things from local breweries. It's about $7 a pint. Last time here got something from Hop Butcher For The World. Just one of the many local breweries. Then we took a few packs. For sure a good place to sample the local beers. It's got some on tap so you can find out right then if they're okay. They're mostly worth getting some to take home it seems.

The main stuff is the beers of course, along with some basic food offerings like pretzels and snacks. Big place with a lot of room for groups. It's a lot bigger than it looks to be honest. There's just not a patio. All of it's inside because there's just no room for it. This is in a part of a large building with a few warehouses. It's about $8 a pint. Kind of a lot but these are locally made craft beers though. We had a few including the Big Beautiful Wheat. It's actually a Bavarian style Hefeweizen. There's also a kitchen where they make a few things. It's about $9 for shareable items. The Pretzel Sticks are pretty standard and pair well with a lot. Great place for locally made beers. It's located on 186th Street. The menu also features grub like paninis and other things.

A pretty hopping ass atmosphere. Those that like loud music will certainly like this. Coming here we missed it a few times at first. It's located on the edge of an industrial park. This is a pretty strange location it seems. About the only reason to be in this area actually. Kind of hard to see amongst all the warehouses. It's about $7 a pint. Pretty similar to typical craft beer prices though. Best we had of these was the Straight Blade. This is a West Coast IPA that's bitter with citrus and floral notes. As for the food it's mostly Mexican. It's $12 for the Lunch Special. There's a choice and we got tacos. Choose proteins including options for plant based. We got these with Beyond meat, and the faux al pastor. Basically they make meaty substitutes out of mushrooms. These come with beans and rice. A lot more on the menu. There's also brunch on Sundays with omelettes and other stuff. Has more than just beers of course. It's also got choices of burritos, tacos, and tortas. There's lots of things for vegans and vegetarians.

It seems they recently expanded into an adjacent space to offer private parties, have monthly events, or offer additional seating. The inside is rather open but all tables and chairs are stool height which isn't ideal for families with kids. Most of the family groups had to sit outside which had more limited seating. I tried a couple of their seltzer flavors and definitely liked peach the most. It did end up tasting very syrup like. I also tasted some of my families beers which were good not great. This isn't one of our go-to breweries in the area but it is certainly worth visiting to see if it is your vibe!
