Lots of seating inside (though a little limited at the bar), and outside there's a nice expansive patio with tables, umbrellas, and additional seats. I haven't tried any food here, as there's a decent Mexican restaurant and Zoetropolis, which has excellent food, all connected by this patio. Some nights and weekends, you can enjoy live music outside, AND the patio is dog friendly! The parking situation is pretty good too -- if you can't find a spot on the street, there are two parking garages and two paid parking lots near Lancaster Central Market, all within easy walking distance.

Beirhall has coloring pages available by the door which is nice for families with kids, as well. There is also an outdoor seating area that is pebbled and has some lawn games available like corn hole. Their chicken schnitzel is really good as well as their nachos. Everyone at our table loved their meals. I wish the brewery provided more instruction when you come in. The first time we came in, no one was around to greet us and we didn't know how things worked. Finally we sat and waited and then realized you order via a bar code. I think they could benefit from some low, vibey music. Both times we have come, it's been very quiet, almost like a library. Everyone has been hushed around their tables and or watching tv. It's a bit odd, like a library that sells beer. Otherwise the food is pretty good and the are cold & crisp. I haven't had a ton of interaction with staff because they kind of just drop the food off and move on, but when we have interacted they have been friendly. This place is a cool addition to the area and a good spot for a yummy meal, cold beer and a relaxed night.

I was so thankful for the friendliness and responsiveness of the owners and set it to meet my family here. It exceeded expectations and is a great place in general to come with friends. Located in an old grocery store, the restaurant and beer bar is completely new. The main area has various sized tables and a few bar seats at the back. Everyone orders at the counter, so separate tabs are fine. They have a great draft beer selection, other drinks, and a fun food menu of smash burgers and cheesesteaks. I ordered the spicy cheesesteak and it was one of my favorite meals of the trip; prices are reasonable for the large portion size, you can easily share one. The bartenders were all welcoming and friendly, everyone working served whoever came up so it was efficient. To the left are refrigerators with packaged beer to go. Behind those are a hallway to the restrooms with mostly macro beers to be enjoyed at the location. This also leads to a really fun game room with pool, darts, pinball, and arcade games. I'd say my favorite part is the refrigerator to the right of the bar, which has all single cans and bottles to be enjoyed on premises. They have an amazing selection of local and regional craft beer, cans are super fresh. I personally had a bunch of very fresh Trillium, which is an excellent brewery I can't get at home. Overall, if you're a beer fan in the Lebanon area and looking for a bottle shop or fun place to hang out, this is it.

You mean to tell me that a bar in Lancaster, Pennsylvania is better than any bar that you would find in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, D.C., or Philly?" To which I would reply, "Yes. That is what I am telling you." You want live music? Tellus has it. You want a Euro-style dance club? Tellus has it. You want good bar food? Tellus has it. You want a "regular bar" for bumping into people and talking? Tellus has it. You want a rooftop bar? Tellus has it. You want a speakeasy? Tellus has it!

We grabbed food from one of the vendors (note that most of the food stalls close around 9:00 PM) and then settled in at the bar to watch a game. The bar stayed open until after 11:00 PM, allowing us to enjoy the entire game. The bar offers a cocktail menu as well as a curated selection of Pennsylvania craft beers. I tried the Stable 12 Fresh Picked Strawberry Lime sour beer ($7.50 for a 13 oz. pour). It was flavorful, slightly sweet, and a nice change from the usual beer options. The bartenders were attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the evening. The space itself is very large, clean, open, and modern, with what appears to be a beautifully renovated warehouse-style design. The black-and-white color palette, exposed metal elements, and high ceilings create a contemporary industrial atmosphere that feels both inviting and spacious. Whether you're stopping by for drinks, catching a game, or pairing your beverage with food from one of the market vendors, 1888 Bar is a great addition to Southern Market.

As we were pedaling past Hell In A Bucket, my fiancée said we should stop there on our way back. Sure enough, we stopped by to reward ourselves for taking on the 28-mi NW River Trail. What a place!!! Seriously! First of all, we wanted to sit at the bar (our usual preference when dining out, if it's possible). The bar was full, but there was one stool open. A guy noticed that we were looking for another stool, and he gladly gave up his place so we could sit and eat together. I later found out that he was the owner and Brewer @ Hell In A Bucket. He had moved to a few chairs down and was talking to his friend explaining how the Dark Star Stout was brewed. The DSS was superb! Janie, my fiancée, picked the Harry Hood 12oz. Which she enjoyed. While these beers were absolutely what "the doctor ordered" after our bike ride, the best was yet to come. We were handed a sheet with today's specials. I did not expect a brewery to have "daily specials" at least not in the form of food. The specials included a Souvlaki Mediterranean Sampler (think, a charcuterie with goodies from Italy and Greece). We also chose an another special called Arancini (a baseball sized cheesy risotto deep fried to perfection). Lastly, we shared the "Pasta of the Day" -- Eggplant Parmigiana on a bed of pasta. Everything was Amazing! We continued to compliment the chef when the owner said he only started a short time ago. I said, "Keep him!" Our dinner tasted like we were eating at a 5-Star NYC restaurant right here in Marietta. ...and at a price that was so reasonable that I KNOW I'll be back! Aside from the great beers, the phenomenally great food, I also have to say that Hell In A has a great vibe. We know we'll be coming back, maybe without even riding the trail!

Music isn't the issue, it's other loud tables that drown out conversation. We love the music and atmosphere but it's a bit uncomfortable. For visitors - it's a theme/gimmick bar, a lot of fun. However, the food & drink is the real surprise here! It's absolutely phenomenal. Best smash burger I've ever had. Best fries. Best veggie sandwich. It's simple, yet top quality. The drinks - the shots - locked in my memory forever! Plus the music selection has always been on point for the theme. Best in the county. Overall - so why not 5 stars? This bar is a must. I want to spend more time there drinking and hanging out. It's just missing some comfort features that prevents that. It's a small space so business wise it makes sense. I'm a little selfish wanting to spend more time there, but with more personal seating options. Owner(s) Help make this a 5 star and hear me out! Far from a 3.8 rating. I would offer some type of help/investment if needed.
