Such a great brewery in the area. They take reservations and was great for our large group. The food was amazing! I had such an amazing burger and steak sandwich here. The beers were great too and I had a lovely stout. They are kid friendly and I would highly recommend it. read more

Stopped in on a Saturday for lunch and the food was fantastic. The pickle chips and the burgers were delicious! Waitress was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back! read more

We were looking forward to burgers and beer. We've dined here before and enjoyed the food and atmosphere. On that note...the past 3 times we've tried to go for dinner there has been some issue. Once we were told they were closing early because it wasn't busy, and tonight even though there hours on the website say 8pm close, the kitchen stops serving at 7pm. Most likely won't go again just because their hours are not consistent with the website. read more

I wish there was a less than star! I order aoli Parmesan fries on the recommendation of the waitress-the second server so far-I am all about cheese-they come there is no cheese-waitress throws nasty cold Parmesan cheese on the table about 15-20minutes later I did not forget about you darling she says while passing at this point it is mute fries cold game over-now she can't even bring check has another person bring it-her a grip people treat me like a person not just your $$$$$$-wont be back and I have big mouth read more

I got a flight and enjoyed all the beers. I also got a burger and thought it was great. The place was quiet on this weekday as we stopped in early for lunch. The building is so interesting and the staff was friendly. I'd come back again next time I'm in town. read more

All in all the places pretty nice the chicken was tender. Could use a little more sauce. I think it was supposed to be a lemon chicken. There was a lemon on each chicken. Eggplant roll. Latini was good. They have these little meatballs that they were serving those were really good. They had a little vegetable roll. That was really good. We were at a winning so they were passing around hors d'oeuvres. Chicken taco was roe that was good. The bruschetta I didn't care for too much because they put balsamic on the bread and it took away from what it was actually supposed to be tomato and an onion mix. I have an outside bar. It's pretty cool. That's where the DJ was set up. That's where the dance didn't happen. Unfortunately, I think the drinks were down because I had eight Jamisons and two vodka and Gingerale's and I didn't even get a buzz on. The bathroom faucets are cool. read more

There were two large parties in the dining area, so it was a bit loud, but helpful because my kids were being crazy. Found it difficult to choose which burger/sandwich, but the waiter kindly pointed me towards "favorites." The kids loved their basic kid-fare, cheeseburger and fingers. I will admit, I was hoping they would save some for me. After confirming that the marble rye was seedless, I went with the Reuben. Ton of flavor - buttery, cheesy, salty, YUM. The truffle fries weren't anything special, still needed salt. We also ordered the Hacksaw. I mean can you go wrong with bacon, cheese sauce, and jalapenos? Plus it was on a pretzel bun. Glad we checked out this place, as it was only 15 min from LEGOLAND and had some good pub food. Would definitely try the apps next time, as everyone else dining there seemed to be enjoying them. read more

It amazes me that I went to a place with cheese curds and didn't eat the cheese curds. I... can't adequately explain that one :D Anyway, I discovered downtown Middletown, and I absolutely love downtown. And in the course of photographing downtown with my friend, I noticed a brewery. And therefore visited the brewery, and therefore sampled the beer. Ambiance: Tough, because I went on a relatively quiet Sunday in cold weather. There were a few people around, but plenty of room at the bar or a table without going to the side room. I didn't explore in depth to see if there were additional rooms beyond that, but after we stood at the bar for a minute and the tender arrived, he _did_ ask if we wanted to sit at a table, so I wouldn't know how this works when it gets crowded. But you do get to see the entire distillery room from the main area and the whole thing is a nice historic brick building, so to me it feels just right. Service: Gonna forgive not seeing anyone for a few minutes, because with only a few people around, you don't need more than a single server/bartender, so if he was off helping someone we wait. He was friendly and helpful and talkative once he returned, all good. Food and drink came out promptly, but again I don't know how it works when the place gets crowded. (I know Middletown can bustle in nice weather.) Food/drink: My friend and I each had one beer, since we were on the road. I went for the dark vanilla stout and it was wonderful. Reasonable price for a pint (or 12 oz for a heavy beer like that), and with the special Orange County brewery coupon program they willingly advertised, that got us "2 for 1" beer! Super great to see that going around OCo, as there are a lot of breweries to try with various perks to encourage it. I can say the beer is well worth that coupon, because you will want to drink this tasty stuff. My tummy was kind of going for a pierogi vibe and the bartender said people like that and the pretzels (I'm not as much a pretzel guy) so that made my choice easy. Perhaps I would have liked the curds more, but 8 pierogis are a good amount of food for a "side" and filled my missing vegetable quota from the maple waffle breakfast (see my prior review today!) with the potato filling and caramelized onions on top. Best pierogis ever? Nah. But they were good, and there's a nice variety of food on the menu to choose from. Only downside is that you don't see prices anywhere, but we didn't ask and it wasn't that painful. I'm sure they'd let you know if you asked, so no stars lost. Overall a very nice experience in a very nice town! read more

The ambiance is so relaxed and chill. The burgers, perogies and sandwiches are delicious.

This place is absolutely AMAZING! We were just spending the day driving around and checking things out and happened upon this complete gold mine! Their beers are actually amazing. The scent, aroma and flavor! We did the flights and there was not one beer I didn't enjoy. AND THIS IS THE BEST PART. They make a homemade "Truffalo" sauce that is to die for. Buffalo + truffle!? Are you kidding me!? Their wings are cooked to perfection and all their sauces are homemade.. We left with doggie bags and growlers... we were only going to stop for one And, Matt, was a pleasure. He was helpful, conversational, funny, and very very kind. I ordered a growler of the blueberry beer and he advised it would be cheaper to just buy the four pack. What a sweetie! Ten out of ten.. would recommend and come again.... And again.... And again! UPDATE: after posting this review, Matt threw in some free beer glasses!!! What!? Ok needed to edit this! Love it here! read more

The two girls working the bar and tables worked their asses off today. This gives me hope for the next generation, as these two worked harder than imaginable. The food -- the pretzels and the onion dip -- were excellent. The beer? Also excellent. This is certainly a place to come back to. read more

Clemson Bros. Brewery - Our Flight - Breweries Near Me - Middletown, New York

So I have mixed reviews on this spot. Let me explain. I'll start off by saying the reason the place gets 4 stars, instead of less, is because of the amazing service of Alex (give him a raise). Ok, I will now explain. We were a party of 5 excited to try this spot. The vibe seemed nice and the food seemed good. We were informed that since a party had reserved the majority of their sitting area they did not have any seating for 5 in the area still available (4 was the max due to fire violations). They told us to walk outside to their other establishment where the bar and ax throwing and games are for service. This side is just a bar so there was no seating- hugggggge area but no seating lol. We joked as I called it "the largest smallest place I've been to" as this huge spot had no tables just the bar. Alex, the bartender, however was very welcoming and inviting and although he was not prepared to be the only waiter and bartender for the overflow that came over he was so accommodating. He got us a table and our group sat at the table (we were the only group at a table lol). He took our orders, got out drinks from the bar, ran back and forth to the kitchen for condiments as we needed while still caring for the busy bar area-BY HIMSELF. Wow he was so friendly and inviting and made us want to stay (unlike the front staff who seemed to care less). The food was delicious (koodos to the chef) and I liked that any beef burger could be changed to a mushroom or chicken burger instead and mine was delicious. Would I go back ? I think so especially if Alex was there. Just be aware they may not be able to sit you if you party is greater than 4 read more

My wife and I opted for an early dinner. The place wasn't crowded, which we appreciated. The fried shrimp basket for starters was delicious. My wife enjoyed the Bavarian pretzels, while I went for the Big Bad Wolf burger. We also sampled some of the beer. Overall, a good experience, and we plan to return. read more

Service was great, wings are good. The pizza is over priced frozen Pizza, beer was flat. The stars are only for the atmosphere and waitress.

Took my daughter to Legoland and we searched for kid friendly breweries near our hotel and this place popped up. Beautiful old building that looks like it could have been a factory a long time ago. Right when you walk in the front door there is a glass room where they brew some of the beer. My daughter thought it was so neat to see all the equipment that's used. The food was so good. She got the Mac & Cheese and I got the The Walk-Off Bratwurst with Truffle Fries. The fries were so good that she stole half of them. We picked up some merch which is always a must. She got a T-shirt, no kids sizes so she got the XS Adult to wear in the future and I got a pint glass for the collection at home. If we were locals we would definitely come back. Great find! read more

Went here with some friends for a birthday on a Tuesday night. We were able to sit in the beer garden for a long time playing board games, drinking, and eating. We all stuck to their mixed drinks and all of them were delicious. I especially liked their "dirty shirley" but I also loved shirley temples when i was younger. The girl taking our order and making our drinks was very fast which was great. I got the fried CBR chicken sandwich which they were able to put pepper jack cheese on. It was delicious! The fries here are also really good but I was disappointed that I asked for beer cheese on my fries and they gave me a cold little plastic ramekin on the side. I definitely wouldnt pay extra for cheese again. read more

Food was good but the Mac and cheese has some type of hot spice in it. Chef told the server no hot spice was in it! I like hot and I could taste it and feel the heat in my mouth. Wife can't eat spicy at all so she just had some salad and breadsticks. Beer I had was very good as were the breadsticks! read more

So let me tell you about this place. I've been here several times and never disappoints . I've had the Oh My Cod twice cause I love fish sandwiches and it's always fresh. But their Reuben is good too. Drinks beer and yes they have wine!! You will be very happy. Everyone is nice, food delicious and ample parking. Downtown up and growing Middletown. I think I'll call this area MiDi for Middletown Downtown district. read more

Sat outside in the beer garden with my friend for a drink and some food. Really cute place. Looked like people could play big jenga and ping pong. I got a short rib sandwich which was essentially a philly cheesesteak type thing. It was good. Glad I got the hot cherry peppers on the side. They were too spicy. I liked the clenson cream ale. I wish it was creamyer. I had some Irish cream ales before that were richer. My friend liked her blueberry pomegranate sour beer, though she wanted the beet one and they were out. She like her bratwurst but said there is too much cheese sauce and bread. Fries are good though. I subbed a salad and it was no extra cost which was great. There were a lot of wasps around outside. My only suggestion is for them to look for a nest somewhere. read more

Beer was just OK bordering on "not good". Tried Trinity IPA , and it was unpleasantly bitter but not hoppy bitter, more like "some chemical cleaner was left in the tank" bitter. Oktoberfest and Pilsner tasted off as well. Also tried one of the double IPAs, which I don't really like to begin with , and it met my expectations. Besides French fries , we did not eat , so cannot comment on the food. Ff were ok , hard to go wrong with those. Service was strange. The lady behind the counter was super responsive and pleasant , but a young man behind same counter was acting like he was doing us a favor by being there, which is really a non starter in a taproom. Perhaps , front of the house is not for him or he is new to this whole thing but in either case , I'm just a paying customer with basic service expectations. On the upside , the place itself was great - industrial design to the core , bathroom sink - mad max style fabulous, the nooks and crannies throughout the outdoor space are a nice touch , and a full size concert hall are all a great bonus. The highlight of the nu-metal gig we saw was the RATM cover band , everyone else was more enthusiastically hyper than anything else. In all, we are unlikely to return - this is my fourth time trying out a Clemson bros establishment , and every time it's a new disappointment. Perhaps, we'll just go our separate ways. Best of luck. read more

We had dinner there last night - first time visiting the area - and we were really pleased with the food (tacos and a burger) as well as their beer (lager and Irish ale). The staff was great and it was interesting to hear about their beer garden and the music performance spaces. We hope to go back again and try more of their offerings. read more

Menu could be more accurate. The Mac and cheese was spicy, which I can't eat, but the menu did not state that. Even questioned the waitress and she said it wasn't spicy. It was! read more

Ah-mazing. Great beer (we particularly enjoyed the blueberry sour on a hot day). We loved their dog-friendly patio, quick and friendly service and of course the food. We had tasty chicken wings with a mango habanero and a Thai sauce, both tasty and with the right amount of spice. The burgers were to die for! Get them on a pretzel bun, you won't regret it. Delicious and fresh ingredients! Mike at the bar was awesome. And the bill was reasonable. We will be coming back. read more

Clemson Bros. Brewery - Outside - Breweries Near Me - Middletown, New York

Food - the food was okay 3 stars, we didn't have to wait and there were options for the vegans in our group. Service - we were a group of 5 and entered a near empty bar but were told we had sit separately OR sit together alone outside or alone inside in otherwise empty spaces. We really wanted to watch the Giants game and this was only possible inside where we could not sit together because moving a fifth chair to a four person table was unacceptable. Because we wanted to sit together with our friends we decided to sit outside and sadly missed the game and a win for our beloved Giants. Our server outside, Chloe, had a fixed flat expression. We were her only customers and so her only chance at a good tip. Still she was less than helpful and definitely would have sold more drinks if she'd bothered to ask us. Even though we were the only customers she plopped our food on the counter for us to collect rather than take literally a few extra steps to deliver it to our table. (Please remember we were her ONLY customers. ) We visited on a Sunday. The closing time was 9pm but when I went to use the outside bathroom it was all locked up around 7pm - 2 hours before closing. Ambiance - what a beautiful place. Soooo much potential. Truly well thought out and pretty. My sister used the outdoor bathroom and encouraged the rest of our group to use the bathroom and check out how nice it is. What a bummer when we found the bathroom locked up 2 hours early. While there the sun went down and the outdoor space became dark. Our group was playing a card game and found it increasingly difficult to see. Chloe did not seem to notice. After a bit we requested that she turn the lights on and she thankfully did, in time. For this we were grateful. Result - my group added the Clemson Bros Brewery to our shared list of BAD CHOICES. read more

The food & atmosphere is awesome. The waitress was one her game. I absolutely love the bathroom sink. Very creative & fits the place great.

Went for axe throwing and paid online prior to going. When we got there, there was a paid comedy show, and they weren't doing the axe throwing, but forgot to mark it on the website. The owner was so accommodating and friendly! He told us it would be a little bit of a wait, and let us stay and watch the comedy show while we waited to do the axe throwing! It was fun, and really cool inside. They had pool and some arcade games as well as cornhole and other games. read more

Bartender was rude and short, until friends came in to play Pokémon!. When asked if HE new of another bartender who worked there, he denied it. In the past, have had positive experiences- NOT today. And for a local girl who brought friends from out of state- not good today. read more

The food at Clemson Bros. Brewery is very good. I especially liked the pretzels! The beer though is the real winner here. They had the very best sour beer I have ever had. It had the aroma of an IPA but was smooth and not as tart as some sour beers can get. I hope to go back soon for that amazing beer! read more

Ended up at Clemson Brewery for a quick dinner and a flight. Quick it was not, but I have to give them the benefit of doubt since they were working with one poor waitress who was also the bartender, hostess and everything else that evening. The Chicago style hot dog I ordered was definitely an interpretation of one with some nontraditional ingredients. The beer Flight was good though, that Maple bourbon brown ale had great color and flavor. Clove alley pumpkin ale was good too read more

Found this gem while scouting the area on a work trip. Stopped in during lunch and was immediately seated. I ordered the Pierogis for a starter and the Star Victor for my main. Both the Pierogis and burger were fantastic. I didn't end up trying the whole grain mustard with the pierogis and removed the lettuce and tomato from my burger. I would definitely stop back in while in town. The menu is good sized and had a lot that looked great. read more

Owner is extremely rude and misleading his customers. Proceed with caution! He will change prices before the check is paid and state it's the law when he is breaking the law himself by not being transparent. Also, don't mention you're from another state, he will ensure you have an even more degrading experience. Horrible food, sketchy service, terrible ownership. read more

Great service and love William the Bartender. Try the Apple Ginger Bourbon Sour it's delicious!!!!!

I've passed by this place a few times and since I was in town, decided to stop in and see what they had going on. We were seated quickly, and our waitress was very nice. Took a while for the food to come out but when it came out, it was hot and fresh. Worth it. I ordered the Smash Burger, but to be honest, I wasn't incredibly thrilled with this burger. Had too much cheese for my liking. The fries were good. I will definitely be back though, because they seem to have a variety of different burgers and sandwiches, of which I still want to try. And maybe then I can provide a better review. Overall, it was a nice place to kick back and relax (have a drink or two - if you do), the place seemed clean, and the food was fresh. #theresalwaysnexttime read more

El lugar estuvo cerca de donde nos estábamos esperando en nuestra visita a este lugar. Me gustó la comida y la cerveza me comí unas alitas con una salsa búfalo muy rica.
