I'm honestly surprised that these guys are rated just below 4 stars, for they deserve every one of the accolades.
For starters, the brewery is a renovated building in the old mill industrial lot, but the looks alone are stellar.
Wrought iron low fence, welcoming outside seating, in short, you wanna come in even before you see what's inside.
Inside is your average sports bar setup.
But, the staff was warm and welcoming, even though their high chairs are a relic of Spanish inquisition (trust me, take the low table).
Excellent selection of fresh brews, with tanks looming just beyond the bar, and very decent menu (more on that in just a sec).
TVs all around the rafters, up high, but still easily viewable without cranking your neck.
Sound is a tad loud.
Perhaps the management could look into some ceiling sound deadening.
Our waitress was warmth impersonated, with both of us, jerks, (my sister and I), loving her attention to detail, knowledge, and willingness to accommodate our for wishes.
Now, the food.
(Sorry, can't speak for their brews, as I enjoyed a bourbon with a huge ice cube. Twice.)
While their menu isn't overly extensive, the two aforementioned picky eaters (my sister and I) had easily found multiple choices to suit our taste buds.
And, boy, were those little guys happy!
Now, you'd think that something as simple as chicken wings or fries is impossible to rave about, but, their fries were some of the best I've ever had (yes, I asked. No, I lost the best, and they're not house made. Yes, I had to publicly admit in front of my sister that I was wrong).
And, the chicken wings quickly disappeared without us even noticing the responsible party.
My burger was another matter. (country burger)
They make a smashed burger, and I wasn't overly thrilled with my flat patty.
But, after a polite request, Kelly reassured me that they'll make an effort, and, boy, did they ever!
The result was a symphony of juices, crunches, and bacon-y goodness over the juiciest burger patty I've had in a long time.
Yes, I said "thank you".
Yes, I praised their food.
Several times.
Yes, my eyes are bigger than my stomach, and I had to drag several to-go boxes as we left.
Yes, you should go here.
If you can stomach slightly elevated noise level inside (it was much quieter outside, but the A/C was too good), drag your butt here, and enjoy! read more
