    Really enjoyed this pls e. So funky with fantastic friendly vibe. They have outside, main area and bar area and each has different vibe. Outdoor is chill, warm and easy going vibe. Main area is cool, fun and layback vibe, and e bar area is enjoying great drinks & adults vibe. The staff here are wonderful, friendly, and very attentive. The place is clean, spacious, funky but fun decor. Menu is great with plenty of choices for everyone's preference. Drinks are fantastic and we'll make. The foods are quite good. We just had drinks and snacks but they are well made. Parking is okey, they do have small parking lot but plenty of street parking and neighborhood's street parking too. Love the place.

    Cold.The E9 was cold.Did not seem like there was any heat in the place.So,that made my dining experience a little uncomfortable.But to compensate for the cool interior,the staff were very efficient and friendly.We enjoyed our meals and the service.Generous on the fish and chips and a sturdy burger dip.History exudes from the walls of this converted fire station.Wonderful collection of paraphernalia.Lots of room for families and a cosy bar area.Large patio,which is very popular....but be wary of the horse chestnut in the Fall!

    Came here two days in a row. First time was for the food (I got the chicken parm sandwich which was delicious so I recommend!) and second was for the bar. If you like beer from a brewery, this spot is for you. I had a few pints as well as a margarita and it was so good.

    E9 has a cool vibe being that it's in an old firehouse built in 1907 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. We chose to sit outside under the huge horse chestnut tree. Be careful, these large and heavy chestnuts fall frequently, and can fall right onto your head or food. The food was pretty good. They offered gluten free pizza crust ansd hamburger buns at no extra charge, which I thought was a nice touch. We ordered The Haven pizza and a side of garlic tots to go with our cider & beer. The pizza came out as a shareable size with a thinner crust. Most of the ingredients were centered toward the middle, which made the slices challenging to hold to take a bite. The flavors were good. The tots were crunchy and hot, but we were left wondering where the garlic was. Next time, I would like to come at night for a drink and a snack with some friends. It seems like the perfect place to socialize.

    Great dive bar with a solid happy hour menu. They've got some cheap drinks options for those that need to give their wallets a bit of a break. Sandwiches and pizzas were pretty good - I was fairly pleasantly surprised by the food and would go back again. Service was quick, fast, helpful. Cool vibe with firefighter themes and decor.

    maple dijon fried chicken sandwich. get it!!
    Moani H.

    your "american" bar menu but wait, there's more! kinda place LOL. they have a huge menu and has your classics like patty melt, mushroom swiss, wings, pizza, salads, chicken strips, pastas, etc. They have tater tots as an option (along with fries of course) -- i mean for me... already a big win.! But seriously also different gems like caramelized onions as toppings in burgers or an impossible burger option, also a smash burger since the new craze. but a specials menu with pulled pork sliders, yakisoba, a french dip and my personal fave is the maple dijon chicken sandwich. this chicken sandwich hits every category it should.. huge, crispy, sweet and tangy (from the maple dijonaise), acid to cut the richness (from the pickles), umami (bacon jam). i had this once and keep coming back for it time and time again... consistency! the staff are friendly and also beer is great. i absolutely LOVE the inside which is an old fire station,... literally. there is a pole and the old parts of the station in there and it's just really so very cool. in the summer they open up seating outside and it's just a vibe for me. you can either wait to be seated or head straight to the bar section where it's open seating. sometimes they do get busy so expect to wait during peak times!

    We loved coming here! I came with family to celebrate my father-in-laws' birthday back in April. All of the food was sooooo good. Our server was very friendly and the prices were fair for the very large portions. Only reason this isn't getting 5 stars is because it seemed they were understaffed because the service was pretty darn slow. Our waitress had a lot of tables.

    Yummm

    I really love this place! So much to look at and such rich history! The food is great and they have Happy Hour during the week. I love their soup n salad meal. They have shuffleboard and many seating options. Check it out!

    Onion ring burger and battered fries
    Auburn Trojans R.

    Quiet day this Monday. Monthly lunch with friends brought us to E9. Plenty of seating, friendly staff and great food. Great decor! Opted for the Onion Ring Burger. Great combo. Crispy onion rings on top of a great patty with bacon and BBQ aioli. I skipped the cheese. Choice of tots or battered fries-my choice- and they were top notch!!! Accompanied with a Seapine Hefeweizen and my lunch was the bomb!!!

    Shuffleboard
    Cathy K.

    Went here for the first time and would definitely go back. The waitress and waiters are friendly and the food was great. Love the fact that we could get in a few games of shuffleboard after eating. Yum yum!,

Super open concept and I can definitely see how they manage to host events here on a regular basis. Also love the vibe here and the string lights, it just makes everything feel cozy. They have lots of board games, corn hole, and a steel tip dart board for people to enjoy. They're also kid-friendly which is nice to note for future visits (sorry if you're one of those people who doesn't like kids at breweries, we're still rollin' up). Service was great while we were here as well. Their beer selections are solid and I enjoyed their hazy. They also have a cider or two on tap as well as a seltzer, if I'm remembering correctly. They have a good selection of canned wines as well. Overall this is a solid brewery and with it being close to home, I'm sure we'll be back a few times this summer!

The crust was great and they had an awesome flavor. I was disappointed to find out that the pies are not actually made by them on site, but I guess bought and shipped in. We wanted to try cider, but alas the prior group from the night before unfortunately drank everything they had. Overall we had a good experience but it wasn't exactly what I was hoping for.

The apps and drinks were well received aside from one of the mixed drinks that came down to preference and not execution. Unfortunately things took a turn after the apps. The specials were just "OK" with everyone at the table mostly finishing their meals but saying they wouldn't order again. I got the beef dip sandwich and it was pretty bad. The jus was more like a burned cornstarch slurry (it was thick AND broken). I sent it back and tried the sandwich on its own, only to find the beef dry and crumbly and the seasoning non existent. I ended up sending the whole thing back after 2 bites and based on everyone else's meal I decided to just skip and eat something at home. My meal was supposed to come with Cajun tots but they gave me regular. Whatever, that wasn't a big deal. The server was gracious enough to remove the item from our meal (which was around $240 before tip for 7 people). We asked about desserts (it's mother's day) but their special "mystery" dessert was 86'd, despite it being a holiday at 6:30. We said we would need a minute but the server must have had a break because we sat there for 10-15 minutes waiting to put in a dessert order and get our bill. The hostess area was devoid of staff and there was only one other server running another section. Finally a new server came up and we ordered a dessert to go and asked for our bill. I'll probably not come back, at least not the main floor area. I'm left kinda scratching my head about what this place has to offer that's worth the price beyond a "Millennial Quirky" atmosphere.
