PJ and Dalton are the friendliest, nerdiest (in the best way), chillest guys. Their creations are IMPRESSIVE, and I don't say that lightly. Jam Session is sold out every other time I'm here, which is understandable as it's the most delicious beer I've ever had (sweet though so heads up if you're not into that, although you're missing out). Today, I had the Butter Beer. Yes, Butter Beer. It tastes like beer with butterscotch, and it's exactly what I imagine the stuff at Hogwarts tastes like. Dalton recommended it with salt, and I gave him a look but tried it both ways - turns out he was correct. Do try it with salt. Speaking of salt, don't sleep on the food either. Their mac and cheese is delicious, and I haven't tried other stuff but the chicken looks crispy and yum, too. The open air design makes it hot at first, but after the sun down and the moonrise, the breeze comes through - and that's what a balmy summer night's about, right? Chill company and a cold beer in friendly neighborhood vibes? Two free parking lots plus street parking. read more

Brewery #401 What's that old expression? Don't judge a book by its cover? Yeah well I judged before I went in and was wrong. So, there is a parking lot right off the service road of the highway. Then you walk down the road a little ways to a chain length fenced in area that has weeds and grass knee high. My 1st thought was "what in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre trailer park trash shit is this place?". I like adventures so I went in anyway and I am glad I did! City Acre had about 15 different beers on tap and I got my usual flight. I got a west coast IPA. a strawberry chocolate sour, a Belgian, and a porter. Flannel weather was the porter, and it tasted like a thin mint Girl Scout Cookie. Delicious. Everything was great. The strawberry chocolate sour was a tasty treat and I usually hate sours. The beertender was super friendly and she gave great suggestions. They have a kitchen onsite that looked good, but I had already eaten. Maybe next time. My bad on prejudging but cut the damn grass read more

One of my favorite breweries that I keep on returning to; just to try something new at each moment. From stouts, to IPAS, to their DERBY burger ahhh! The bbq chipotle sauce was BEES KNEES saucy goodness. Bartenders & chefs are kind & recognize the locals --much appreciated! Whether you visit on a hot summer or breezy winter day; the patio is the place for you, beautiful greenery that encompasses all-over. They were nice enough to offer us a tour of the area last time we visited. read more

Cool spot, but we didn't realize they were very close to closing early. Beer is decent, just a little more pricier than your average brewery. Parking is about a block away, so be prepared to walk. read more

My family lives about 5 minutes from this restaurant and I never even knew it! Glad I came across this place, very beautiful environment, lots of space to hang out. Already looking forward to going back so I can see more of what this place has to offer. Got the Cluck City Sandwich, pretty good, I did wish it came with a few more fried pickles (I only like got 2 ) The chicken was good, breading was great, but I think the juice of the chicken made the sandwich get soggy a bit too quickly. The fries that came with it were very good, nice and crispy and great flavor. The staff was very friendly, always keeping an eye out for what customers may need. Can't wait to go back when I visit my family in Houston again to try the beer and the games! I did see they had a game room, so I'm very intrigued to see what games they have! read more

City Acre Brewing - Greek chkn salad and brewer burger and fried mushrooms - Brewpubs Near Me - Houston, Texas

Absolutely loved our visit to City Acre Brewery! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel right at home--warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. The new menu is full of exciting and creative options, and we had a hard time choosing what to try first (a good problem to have!). The handcrafted sodas are a unique and refreshing touch, and the beer? Outstanding. You can really taste the care and craft that goes into every pour. We were lucky enough to chat with the brewer--charming, passionate, and clearly dedicated to making the experience special for everyone who visits. And the food! The burgers are absolutely next level--made in-house, juicy, flavorful, and perfectly paired with the brews. You can tell there's a lot of heart behind everything they do here. We couldn't recommend City Acre Brewery more and are already looking forward to our next visit! read more

A low key environment with great beer and great food and wings. Get a flight or two so you can try them all. Will be back again.

City Acre Brewing was amazing. My husband and I were looking for a place that had good food and good beer and this place had both! We ended up here completely by accident as it was a last minute decision to try to find a brewery in Houston while we were visiting. Their burgers were absolutely fantastic and a great price for the amount of food. They had a variety of different ciders and beers on tap that they make in house. read more

Don't let the first impression of the location fool you. We were met with excellent customer service a super cool outdoor area, and expansive library of board games to play while we waited. We were blown away by the food! What a great way to start our trip to Houston! Highly recommend!! read more

Food was HORRIBLE I HATED THIS PLACE AND SO DID MY FAMILY. I was just trying to have a nice night out with my family and friends but then a waitress came up to us with the WORST attitude I've EVER experienced. She was rude and seemed like she didn't even care about her job. When we complained to the manager he said "oh she's always like that don't you worry" like OMG!!! Was also horribly decorated. read more

Amazing place right off the highway! Don't be fooled by having to park and walk a little bit to the building...it's worth it, I promise! The hamburger was flavorful and juicy on a pretzel bun and the fries were seasoned well and crisp. I can't wait to come back! read more

I love this place and I will be back. The custom beers were so good, the food was delicious and the staff was extremely friendly. Mind you the place is little rustic and the parking is a little walk but overall it's worth it. read more

I found this place on my way home from the Intercontinental airport. Finding the parking lot was a challenge, but it was worth it. The place is run with passion. It is a super comfortable place with indoor and outdoor spaces. Based on the Mac & Cheese and Mediterranean Salad, I'd say that they have a world-class chef. Ale-tuve is pretty tasty so I brought home a growler. I will definitely go back to see what else they have. read more

This such a fun hole in the wall spot! I went in for a bite to eat and a beer. Brews and food were made in house. I met the owner (very friendly) and the chef. The waitress/bartender was great as well. The food was tasty and portions were large. They have a large outdoor area that would be enjoyable when the weather cools down a bit (it was too hot and humid during my visit). I will say it is unassuming and easy to overlook due to it being off the highway. You'd have to go looking for it. Parking was a small walk but easy enough. read more

Wow. Looks very low key but the staff and food is absolutely amazing! Burger, Mac-n-cheese with in house sauce is so good. And beers/ciders were just as tasty. read more

The food is great, staff is super friendly, and beer is delicious! City Acre also has convenient parking. Highly recommend!

A stop on the #FiftyTXBreweriesBy50Tour We've been to City Acre many times and they never disappoint. This time, we included a hamburger. O. M. G. So good. We also had the fries...might try the tots next time. Good people Good brew Good food read more

Came here with my family to meet up for lunch and greatly enjoyed our visit. There was plenty of room outside for the kids to play, and they are dog friendly. We ordered a couple of beers and food. The guy helping us navigate the food and beers was super friendly and very helpful. We sample some beers and then ordered our food. My little cousins enjoyed their house made rootbeers, and we enjoyed their berry IPA and Mesa Cerveza. Food came out pretty quickly, and overall, it was really good. The chicken for the chicken and waffles was very moist and had the perfect crunchy skin. The only tiny issue I had was that the waffles were very sweet. With the hot syrup it it was a little sweetness overload. There tots, though, are AMAZING! Excited to go back to try more! read more

It's located in a neighborhood of a part of town that I typically don't go to, but it's not that far from downtown. There's a large parking lot so parking isn't an issue either....win! And it's the perfect COVID gathering or date spot as all tables are outdoors and properly spaced out. It's a very chill and cute atmosphere with the gardens on the side and trees. Feels like an outdoor party in someone's backyard. Menus are also accessible via QR code and hand sanitizer is provided. They had a more extensive drink menu than I expected for a microbrewery, so even if you don't drink or like beer you have options, which is very nice. We visited during Oktoberfest weekend and the food was surprisingly very good! Excellent service also from the staff. Great food, great beer...you really can't ask for anything more! read more

City Acre Brewing - Outdoor seating only with all ordering done online - Brewpubs Near Me - Houston, Texas

I first discovered this place in their first year of existence. Ever since then, they have easily remained our fave-- one of the best microbrewery experiences to be had in Houston. Nowhere else can you enjoy a rotation of microbrew offerings, alongside a menu prepared by an actual gourmet chef. Even the grilled cheese is above and beyond all expectations. Family friendly; pastoral setting, and conveniently nearby. Our entire family loves this micro above all others. Try it, you will not regret it. read more

We really enjoyed this brewery. It has two indoor areas where you can order food and drinks. It also has two outdoor areas. There are games provided in every area and great music playing. The service was quick and very helpful. Every member in the staff made you feel comfortable to ask questions and chat. The property was also beautiful and great to hang out at. Overall, I highly recommend a visit. read more

Decided to visit City Acre today. So glad that we did. The staff was amazing. I wasn't in the mood for beer. But they actually had the best frozen non-alcoholic drink that I had three of them. Rick, the Chef, was super friendly and a giant help with all the questions we asked. I absolutely loved his pickled veggies that we crushed. When asked about the veggies outside he told all about them and even got me a non tomato lover on border to try one. Everyone there was super friendly and just very relaxed. I'd recommend for a relaxed spot with friendly folks. read more

I have stoped by City Ace Brewing about 4 or 5 times, I was in the mood for a beer as I traveled from downtown Houston back to Lufkin, Texas and thought I would stop by. It was around 2 PM and I was hungry but thought I may have missed the lunch hour. I ordered IPA about some food. I bought some chicken strips, expecting the fast food kind of affair. Instead of some chicken strips, I got what consisted of about three whole chicken breasts breaded in some fantastic crunchy bread that I loved with some fries and they were great fries. Freshly made didn't seem to ever have been frozen I'll be back whenever I pass this brewery to have another beer and try some other food. It's a great place to go, enjoy a beer! read more

This place is wonderful! The food is great and so is the atmosphere. Loved the board game area outback and the trivia night was super fun! Great service is obvious after you arrive. Staff was very helpful and kind. read more

I really enjoyed coming here to meet up with friends and have a few drinks and a bite to eat. The hamburger and the fried chicken tacos are a must. The beer was enjoyed by all. They even have a deal where your first drink is free with a burger purchase. Its patio is nice and relaxing. No NA beer but plenty of other non alcoholic options like sodas, jarritos, and Arizona products. read more

Hidden gem. A friend suggested this spot and I was surprised the location. I grew up around here, went to high school around the corner so a brewery here, wow, what a great find. There is a unpaved parking lot across the street for easy access. There is outdoor seating but we were there after a weekend of rain so indoors it was. Order at the counter. We went with sampler. The guy suggested OctoberFest and IPA (more into light/pale ale) and my friend chose coffee stout and RIS (dark ales) and the urban cowboy burgers. There are bench type seating. Max cap was 65. There is self service water. And a nice open feel. I love breweries. This was a nice spot. The urban cowboy burger was soooo delicious. Serious thought I was in heaven. The beers were all great. The octoberfest was my favorite. The coffee stout was delicious if you like coffee and the RIS reminded me of Guiness. The atmosphere of the place was wonderful and I look forward to heading back there soon. If you live in the Aldine-Mac area, please stop by and support a local business. I plan on it. *they also do weddings, birthdays, business events etc and that menu looked reasonable and enticing read more

Great ambience - just found this place out of the blue. Due to Covid - there are guidelines which I think are great. Out door seating is ample! Parking is not in front so you have to walk half a block. They even provide mosquito repellant on each table (nice touch!). Lets talk about service, beer, food and bill. Service - super friendly and courteous. Some of servers are eager to help - others....leave a bit to be discussed. (Will touch on that in a bit). Beer - TXPA; refreshing and not too hoppy. Their beers seem to be well balanced and brewed. So much that I ended up drinking 2. Food - decent menu....but for what you get its a tad expensive. Then again I dont think there are many options close by. Food service took way too long to make 2 burgers & 1 fish tacos - almost 30 minutes. Not many people were eating. Burger is good not great; lacks a bit of flavour. Fries were great. Bill; cheap! For three people: 2 burgers, 1 fish taco, 6 beers. Now, I basically had to do jumping jacks for the server to come out as he was sitting inside chilling with the A/C. Would I go again? Sure, but I'm going already fed. read more

Decided to take a day trip to far North Houston & visit places we don't typically venture to when we found city acre! When we stopped by, the kitchen was getting remodeled so no fresh food yet. BUT they did have an amazing local BBQ pro set up & ready to fix you a plate! The beers were decent to good, with a pretty good selection available in spring 2022. read more

My guys came here for the brews. I tagged along for the food. I live with two beer aficionados who have (most likely) been to every brewery in the greater Houston area multiple times. There are some breweries that beckon them to return (and bring me along), while there are others that suffice with one visit (according to them). City Acre Brewing is one of those locations that they continued to talk about - and recommended that I join them when they return. They both sung the praises of the beer as well as the food. I see what they were talking about! Spot on! I do like a tasty glass of beer every once in a while, and the Hitchcock Blonde was a tangy-tasting blonde that satisfied. With 5 "regular" beers on tap and 5 additional "specialty" beers from which to choose, City Acre has quite the variety for a brewery that is just celebrating its one-year anniversary. Their food, as another reviewer stated, brings it to the next level, though. No beef on the burger menu - so get that notion out of your head and think outside the box - hubby and I split an Urban Cowboy burger (pork/venison with other jazz on it) and son got a smoked turkey sandwich. That burger! I am not one to rave about a burger, but wow! De-lish! Smoked turkey looked moist and the sandwich was thick; son said it was very good and very filling. Fries accompanied both plates and were gobbled down. A tip - do not desecrate your food with any condiments: these are burgers and fries that are perfect straight out of the kitchen, prepared to be enjoyed as is. Ketchup would obscure the beautifully-blended flavors. Atmosphere is comfortable and service was cordial and friendly. Start your tab when you come in and close it out when you're ready to leave. What could be easier? And - City Acre will fill your growler. If you've got one, bring it along. They'll fill it and keep it chilled until you're ready to depart. Nice! read more

The food here was very good. We had the German Burger and the egg rolls that were on rotation and they were both super tasty. They also make their sodas and teas and lemonades on site. I don't drink beer, but the people I was with said the beer was good. I would improve their rating to a 5 if they served a guest cider or wine. The outdoor space is pretty large. It is a yard worth some seating and a fire pit they is possibly used on colder days. Feels very much like hanging out in someone's backyard. They have another area to the side that seemed to be used for events. read more

Tried this place for the first time last night because I saw on a Facebook group they were doing fish and chips. So glad we went! While the beer was good...not the absolute best we've ever had but good nonetheless...the food was fantastic! Everything about the meal was delicious. All in all, a very good meal, good friendly service, relaxing atmosphere and a very pleasant evening all around. Will definitely be back. Been looking for a good fairly local place since our favorite craft beer bar had to close due to COVID restrictions. This is now on our list. Just the right vibe if you're looking for laid back and unassuming but still providing quality products. read more

Setup: venturing far, far away to check out a long awaited business The better: very quaint space and décor, friendly and knowledgeable staff, board games, "dragon's breath" fries The lesser: parking is not attached, food and beer are just ok. The burger was a tad dry, the turkey sandwich had good flavor but the bread could have been better - maybe just toast it. Observations: if you don't live in the area it's not really a worthwhile trek. Seems to be a decent neighborhood spot otherwise, but not spectacular. The "pretzel" is tasty, but more like a twisted breadstick - def not traditional in taste/texture. For a place that took this long to open I think I expected more. read more
