The other brewery has the more visible Main St location, but it was very dark inside and heavy metal music was playing loudly. Mechanistic is just around the corner and has a much warmer, brighter vibe with a lot of outdoor tables. The inside bar area is small but has good natural light, and they were setting up for an event in a larger room next door. Our bartender was friendly and welcoming, and mentioned they weren't officially open that day except for the event, so we appreciated being welcomed in. I ordered a pumpkin beer and it was SO GOOD. I've had several recently, and this was my favorite. It tastes like a slice of fresh pumpkin pie, smooth and sweet but not overly so. Would definitely return here.

I wasn't sure if they did carry out and the contact us was an email. On a holiday weekend I really wasn't optimistic I'd hear anything. But in a few short minutes Jeremy responded and said they do carry out orders unless there is a line waiting, then they couldn't promise. He gave a number to call for ordering. Upon calling the staff was friendly and helpful and said they would wait to put our order in as we were 30 min out and wanted our food hot. It was ready on arrival and were also able to get carry out beer. She included plastic ware in case we needed it. Food was hot, fresh and delicious. Would definitely go back if we were in the area again. Thanks for a great fast experience.

Keep it small and great. We both ordered burgers. I ordered a classic burger with blue cheese and bacon with fries and beer cheese. The other condiments came out in containers to put on yourself. This is what every brewery needs to do. My wife ordered the smokehouse burger with fries and beer cheese and loved it. I started off with their signature IPA which was solid. We ordered a flight to share that had a lager which was mid, a cider that I loved. The other two were very good. I know college is out of session and the town might be a little slow, and it was a Sunday but the town is adorable and the food here is fantastic. They also have a bar to the left past the restaurant which had sports and a really good vibe with the locals.

We started out with fried pickles and pub pretzels. The pickles came with a buffalo sauce and the pretzels came with cheese and mustard. For my meal I got the birdsnest chicken sandwich. It was decent, but not my favorite sandwich. I took a risk as it was smothered in mustard and apples. I also did not love the bun, as I prefer a softer bun and this one was harder. I unfortunately cannot do brewery beer with some stomach issues, but others in our party reported they enjoyed the beer.

I stopped by here a number of weekends ago now with my wife for lunch and some drinks. We had been…read morelooking for a brewery in Erie to visit after the Erie Marathon whenever Lavery Brewing popped up on Yelp. This place is large and has both outdoor seating on the side as well as plenty of indoor seating. The inside looked like a mix of cozy and industrial, with a long wooden bar stretching the length of the room, warm pendant lights hanging overhead, colorful beer boards on the wall, and shelves lined with bottles and glassware behind the bar. It had a relaxed but lively feel to it. After looking around to figure out where we wanted to sit, we ultimately chose the bar. For lunch on this day I chose to go with the pimento smash deluxxxe while my wife went with the pesto pizza. The menu described my meal as two smash patties, bacon, American cheese, pimento cheese, and onion rings on a brioche bun while my wife's was described as parsley basil pesto, triple cheese blend, fire roasted tomatoes with a balsamic glaze. I thought that the burger here was delicious as the patties were seasoned nicely and I appreciated the onion rings. While there was plenty of cheese and it was flavorful, I almost could have used more of the pimento. Then my wife liked her pizza here especially the pesto combined with the fire roasted tomatoes. Then for drinks, as I often do whenever I visit a new brewery, I decided to go with a flight here. At Lavery Brewing, a flight consists of 6 beers and I chose the Active Recovery, Seeking Clarity, Lime n Cuke, Throwing Tropical Shade, Sound Mild, and Divine Intervention for my flight. I first started with the Active Recovery which was light and hoppy and very drinkable. Up second was the Seeking Clarity which had a clean start before a heavy dose of hops in the middle which surprisingly didn't linger. Third was the Lime n Cuke which has a strong cucumber smell and the drink itself is dry like most goses with a mild lime and stronger cucumber flavor. Fourth was Throwing Tropical Shade and you could really taste the orange and other tropical flavors with a finish flavor of coconut. For me this was a really delicious beer. Up fifth was the Sound Mild which was light but you got the nice flavor of those toasted malts at the finish. Last but certainly not least was the Divine Intervention which had a strong coconut flavor on the finish. Out of the bunch my favorite ended up being the Throwing Tropical Shade. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My wife and I both enjoyed the beverages and the food and we left both happy and stuffed.
