The food is pretty good and never disappoints (but I have only eaten breakfast here). They have made the food exactly how we have requested it each and every time. The prices are good too. Their coffee mugs are extremely small though and you have to keep requesting to fill it up. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is the wait staff is a little less than desirable. They are not too attentive and never seem happy or greet you with a smile. I would definitely visit again if in the area again though. I would highly recommend the fresh blueberry pancakes. The blueberries were super fresh and delicious.

The drink menu had pretty much anything you could think of (with a very long list of flavour syrups, including plenty of sugar-free), and there were lots of good-looking baked goods in their display. We were taking a minute to decide what to order because there was so much to choose from, but the cashier was patient and friendly. I got a tuna melt, a banana half moon cookie, and an Italian cream soda with salted egg yolk syrup. The salted egg flavour, if you are not familiar with it, tastes a little similar to eggnog or Irish cream. I really like the flavour and it worked pretty well in the cream soda and made for a unique drink. I also had a few sips of my dad's lemon cream matcha. The matcha wasn't the strongest, but with the lemon cream flavour, it was a very pleasant drink. The tuna melt was great; I liked the big pickle pieces in the tuna salad. I like their style of half moon cookie - the chocolate frosting/ganache was really good, and the banana flavour was nice. I'd love to come here again next time I'm in town!

I organized a team dinner for 36 people after a softball day, and Beer Tree Brew made the…read morereservation process incredibly easy. I had to change the headcount twice, confirmed the reservation multiple times because of the size of the group, and they even moved us into the beer hall to accommodate everyone. Communication leading up to the event was excellent. Unfortunately, about 30 minutes before our reservation, I received a call that the kitchen had been shut down due to an emergency plumbing issue. I completely understand that emergencies happen and don't fault the restaurant for something outside of their control. We were offered the option to delay our reservation by 30-45 minutes while they waited for an update, but there was no guarantee the kitchen would reopen. After discussing it with the group, we had to scramble to find another location. I appreciate that someone called rather than having us show up and receive the news, but with a party of this size, I wish there had been more proactive communication, the GM thought she had called me but totally understood when dealing with an emergency. The reservation process itself was outstanding and talking with Jessica about options at their other location was great. Hopefully we can try the Factory if we are ever back in town.

Went to Factory last night and ordered the fiesta bowl and was highly disappointed. Over cooked rice, barely any corn or beans and the chicken was lacking in flavor. Overall the taste was pretty bland had to get extra sauce to put on it just so I could eat it. Someone else got the chicken caprese and there was one basil leaf on the entire sandwich! Chicken was dry and had no flavor. Chips were way too salty and inedible. Really disappointed, the quality continues to go down while the prices go up. At some point the "our operating costs are going up" spin will only get you so far while the overall taste and quality of the food continues to decline.

It was quiet when we arrived, but more customers were streaming in by the time we left, many of whom seemed to be regulars and have a good relationship with the staff. Our waitress and the other staff were all really sweet. Besides their food menu, which caters to a variety of tastes and diets, they also have a cocktail menu, and extensive wine and tea menus. I really like that they can do lattes made to order (hot or iced, sweet or unsweetened) with any of the teas they offer - I got a tea latte with the Chocolate Cream Truffles tea. It was very pretty to look at (topped with foam and dusted with cocoa powder) and also tasted nice and smooth. My Tempeh Reuben and side of Kale Slaw were so good! All the individual components of the sandwich were tasty and together they were perfectly balanced. I was just so excited to see this on the menu because I love the Swiss cheese/kraut/sauce combination of the traditional Reuben but can't have the meat, so I was very happy to be able to enjoy it with tempeh. I had a taste of my dad's vegetarian chili too. It was very tasty and a little sweeter than most chilis which was interesting. I had a vegan chocolate cupcake for dessert. This was less "interesting" than the rest of the food I got but still good. The shredded coconut on top was a nice touch. Definitely a place I'd visit again! They also have dinner specials and occasional special brunches which I'd love to check out sometime.
