    Awesome ultra pet friendly spot with delicious beers and solid food. Tried the pretzels twists with beer cheese & nuggies and highly recommend both!!

    Fiesta melt. My fiancé really enjoyed it. It looked juicy

    I love that this place is dog friendly and they allow dogs both for indoor and outdoor seating. Staff are all very friendly. Plenty of seating. Very fun and chill vibes. Self seating. You order at the front counter and they will bring out your food. Also very good food. My fiancé and I had the jalapeño cheese curds to start and for entrees I had the hot chicken sandwich and my fiancé had the fiesta melt. The chicken sandwich was good but beware, it definitely has a kick to it. My fiancé really enjoyed his fiesta melt. Overall we really enjoyed our time here on a beautiful Saturday afternoon with our fur babies and we will be back.

    I'm not crying, you're crying. On a trip to Lake Charles, we stopped by Crying Eagle Brewing for some brews in the afternoon. And we were lucky to find out that we were there during their happy hour where they have discounts on beers and beertails (beer + cocktail mix). They have a large parking lot so parking won't be an issue. And it's a spacious brewery too with two floors. After checking out the menu, I started with one of their beertails. It's not often that I have a cocktail that has some beer so couldn't say no to that. It delivered. From there, to get a good variety, I did a flight. Always my go-to at breweries so you can try a good number of their beers. Followed by a full-size beer after that to complete the trifecta. While they had food, that looked good, we stuck to drinks. Plus, free WiFi. I would return. My only complaint? They charge for samples . . . it's a brewery. Come on!

    Come for the food and nice location and friendly staff. However the craft beer is just not great. This is an honest assessment from someone who enjoys craft beer. The beer is not a drain pour, but not a beer destination by any means. Possibly the best brewery in Lake Charles but there isn't much competition . The pretzel bites, salads and pizza were definitely worth enjoying. I would try a sandwich next time.

    This is a surprisingly great brewery in Lake Charles. They have excellent selection of lights, darks and IPAs. Location and parking is great and the vibes are great. Highly recommend bringing a group just to even chill and have a few drinks. The do have a restaurant there too but didn't try any of the food.

    Ahhh I just love this place. I love the chill but busy environment. I love the service. And I love the food. Especially the pretzel bites and pepp pizza! Everything tastes really fresh and the vibe is welcoming, Franny is one of the owners and we became fast friends. I bought a cookie, and I saw her working, mixing mozzarella in the back. She stopped and asked if I wanted it to be warmed. She stopped what she was doing to help me. The service is on point! It was very nice to meet you both today. And the Christmas decorations are an added bonus 12/22/2022

Whitney was our guide and she was knowledgeable about the area and its people. She also told us a few funny jokes. Five locations were visited. 1. Ton's Drive In-Broussard. We sampled chicken and sausage gumbo with a small scoop of potato salad. Delicious. 2. Prejean's in Broussard. We sampled dirty grits and scallops. The sauce was a little on the salty side, but the dish was quite flavorful. 3. NuNu's in Youngsville. We sampled, link boudin, boudin balls, chicken patties, chicken crackling, and smoked sausage. Everything was delicious. We were gifted a 3 oz container of NuNu's Cajun seasoning. 4. Fezzo's Seafood, Steakhouse & Oyster Bar in Broussard. We sampled fried alligator with sauce and a char grilled oyster. Delicious. 5. Poupart Bakery, Inc in Lafayette. We sampled King Cake with pecan and cream cheese filling with a cup of Community Coffee. Yum. The perfect end to a tour of delicious foods enjoyed by locals everyday. This is an educational food tour that locals would absolutely benefit from. Whitney covered some history of Louisiana I'd certainly forgotten. This tour filled the 3 hours with delicious food, some humor lots of education and I highly recommend it for visitors and residents of Louisiana. Our group included guests from Louisiana, England and Ireland. We all enjoyed ourselves.

Ryan was THE best choice for the General Manager. He is doing an excellent job with his staff and the ambiance of the restaurant. Our server, Gage, was a prime example and reflection of the care going into this place. Gage was so sweet and took very good care of us. Now for the food. Everything was so flavorful and worth every penny. The kitchen staff knows what they're doing, and they are killing the game. We started off with the pork belly bites and the shrimp toast for appetizers. That spicy aioli mixed with the chili glaze on the pork belly was top tier! The shrimp toast was perfectly crispy and delicious. The entrees were just as much of a slam dunk as the appetizers. I had the beer braised beef short rib with the mashed potatoes. Talk about melt in your mouth. The short rib was so tender that I was able to pull every single bite off the bone with my fork using very little effort. It was MELT IN YOUR MOUTH TENDER! My husband had the Tasso brined double cut pork chop with collard greens. The Demi-glace was absolutely delicious and the greens were well seasoned. My father-in-law had the wedge salad that he asked to spruce up with a few extra dressings, and they had no qualms meeting his requests. We were too stuffed to try dessert, but we will absolutely be back to try it another time. The pricing was very fair for the quality of food and atmosphere. All of the staff were super kind. You can definitely tell they enjoy their job and take pride in what they do. We can't recommend the lakefront location enough. It's definitely going to become a top favorite that we'll continue to frequent.

    Where brewery meets boujie…read more I had been to Crying Eagle years ago, but at the other location, the actual brewery. When we arrived, they took our names and we waited about 15 mins for a table. It was weird because there were plenty of tables and the wait staff was all standing in a row as if they were waiting for people. Anyway, we were seated upstairs on the patio overlooking the lake. There were category 3 hurricane winds (not really but seemed like it) so we had to hold on to our menus. I wasn't hungry so I just got some onion rings and a couple of beers, no flights available at Chateau de Crying Eagle. The beers were solid and the onion rings along with the ranch dipping sauce were really good. This place is a restaurant that serves Crying Eagle beer not a brewery. The menu is much more upscale with things like beef tartar, redfish on the half shell and tasso brined double cut pork chops. All of those things sound great, but I was dressed more for the old location vibe. I'd come back but only if I was wanting something more upscale.
