Decided to pop in here on a Saturday as I've never been to the Lindenhurst location. It was packed - there wasn't anyone at the hostess stand so I stood waiting for a while - until I found an employee to ask for a table - however when the server came over she was so sweet and bubbly the earlier fumble didn't matter - we ordered a few appetizers, I have to say they were all amazing - the server was great at giving menu suggestions and had a really great personality. The only other "con" is I saw other tables had games - when I asked the waitress, she said o you just have to ask - so if you're not a regular you're not aware to do so. The environment is loud and fun - there are a ton of TV's and the music selection was on point - also I saw folks in there with kids - so it's also family friendly

Nice place in Lindenhurst with plenty of metered parking. Location is a tad loud but nothing crazy. Theirs a nice bar, nice upstairs for events and plenty of seating otherwise. I tried the pretzel app and Reuben sandwich. Both small and slightly expensive but tasted great. Service was friendly. I'd go back.

Mediterranean Platter
Tom G.

Came here for a late lunch on a Sunday with a decent sized party of 6 and was able to be sat right away. Was very excited to try the newest addition to the Lindenhurst main strip and it certainly did not disappoint. Loved the ambiance, the building used to be an old bank and there are a lot of little touches that they kept around that add a lot of local charm. Would definitely love to really explore the bar area more the next time I stop by. Seating can be a little tight, but not too bad. Service was exceptional. Our server, Amanda, was not only incredibly attentive, she was fun and really helped bring the whole experience to the top level. If I could I'd ask for her everytime! Despite being affiliated with Great South Bay Brewery, the place has a lot more to offer than just beer for drinks, but of course the beer selection is not to be slept on and updates frequently. They also offer wine, cocktails, soft drinks, and even mocktails which were all great options for our mixed party of drinkers. They might be brewery first but the food here was delicious too! For appetizers we got the pretzels, the nachos, and the Mediterranean platter to share. You might not think it, but the pita platter was actually my favorite, very fresh and different than just your typical bar food you'd expect. For the main I got the Mulberry Street Panino, which was a little messy but very delicious. Everything on the menu looked great and I'd be absolutely stoked to try all their options, and especially eager to get down there for brunch some time. Parking on wellwood in my opinion is chaos, but there are luckily a bunch of municipal lots nearby (paid and unpaid) that you can use that are far more convenient.

Great new brewary in lindy that features some great beer, food, and service. Came here on Saturday with some friends, and even though it was packed, we were still able to get a spot in the back by the old vault. It's a converted old bank, so it has a large open floor plan with private rooms in the back and upstairs. They have a great bar menu with some great pizzas, pretzels, and wings. The truffle fries were also good. Like their other location, their beers are delicious. Overall, it's a great spot to try.

The open bar space is cool

We stopped in after a funeral with multiple families. The service was spot on! The food is delicious! The decor was cool since it was an old bank! Highly recommend coming here for the food, lunch, or any occasion!

I've been a fan of GSB's beer since a group of us wandered into the Bay Shore tasting room many years ago. The building had been an aircraft warehouse and the only seating they had was a couple of old airline seats! Fast forward to today and GSB has opened a second location in Lindenhurst with a full-service kitchen and a full bar. A group of us came here for dinner because we heard the food was really good, and it didn't let us down. We were seated immediately. Our server took great care of us all night. The food lived up to its billing, my favorite being the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice Tots (gluten free too!) Burgers were good and the teenager we brought devoured a giant pretzel and a pizza. This restaurant has a full bar but, being pumpkin season, we had to have a pumpkin beer with a cinnamon sugar rim. If there's any downside to this place, it's that it's noisy for dinner. For a night out or to watch a game I'm sure I wouldn't have minded!

Seasonal Fig Pizza

I'd like to consider myself somewhat of a craft beer connoisseur and I've always loved visiting Great South Bay Brewery's location in Bay Shore. This is the first time I had the opportunity to check out their Lindenhurst location and perhaps it was the wrong night to go (a Friday night) but I was a bit underwhelmed. The location is gorgeous, they renovated an old bank and did it justice, still showcasing a lot of the old bank features. The beer was solid - as always, and the food (their artisan pizzas) was perfection, but the service wasn't great. To start off with the good - their food. We ordered their Get Shorty and their seasonal Fig pizza - both were out of this world and cooked to perfection. I definitely recommend not sleeping on their pizza. Their beer is always solid, and we would have liked to have more of it, but our server was pretty much m.i.a all night. We ultimately decided to get the check (which we had to ask for a few times) and decided to grab beers some where else. I look forward to going back, but will probably go during one of their off peak times.

I hosted my husbands retirement party at the great South Bay brewery in Lindenhurst. We rented the upstairs private bar area. It was terrific. The price was so reasonable. Food was awesome. And the staff was amazing. They made sure our event went perfect. I would recommend this place to everyone for private events.

A very new, modern, clean and swanky brewery/restaurant right inside the city. I tried some samples of beer and they were quite bitter for my taste. We also got the margherita pizza which was amazing. The sauce was so fresh and without any sourness. Almost every table had kids. The staff was great. The old pictures of the bank, the vault and the high ceiling gave good character to the whole place. Loved the vibe and service.

The food is absolute garbage. And the service is horrible. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody that I know.

"Unfortunately, the TVs were disappointingly small, but the silver lining was the consistently good beer."

It's nice to go to someplace new to me. It was hard to find parking because of all the snow from the 3rd snowstorm that is still not clearing the streets and sidewalks. Hubby dropped me off and found one. It's a kitchy looking place with many TVs and multiple levels. The door to the place looks like an English phone booth with 2 dialup phones in the entryway. Our waiter Joe was very nice. The girl who sat us gave us our menus right away. I had to wait for hubby to park, but I had time to look over the menu. All the choices sounded good. Hubby wound up with a Spinach Benedict with Roasted Tomatoes with nicely Crispy fries and a lemon Benedict sauce to die for. I got a Avocado Toast with Goat Cheese and Caramelized Onions on whole grain toast. The Arugula salad that was also on the plate was covered lightly with a lemony dressing. I added Cholula Sauce and it was so good. Another point I'd like to make is that the bottles of hot sauces were clean with no cruddy tops. That turns me off so good for them. I would definitely go back.

It was basically a deconstructed sandwich. Good flavor overall - could've used a little more pesto, but the mozzarella tasted fresh and was soft. Service was not the best, but I'll still go back when in the area.

He had to wait over 20 mins for them to "cook more" only for the young server to forget to bring it back the two times we asked her for it. The pretzel app came with beer cheese sauce that had the same texture as sand. It was inedible. The only good app was the boom boom wings. Couple in that terrible start of our experience to our apps coming the same time as our entrees. With my meal coming about 10 minutes before my boyfriends but minutes after the young staff dropped the apps. So we couldn't even enjoy the wings without our entrees being cold. Server was also slow. Idk if it's because they have all young staff and no supervisors or managers but it was bad. Had to ask multiple times for refills on our water when that was my only drink bc I couldn't stomach the refrigerator tasting martini. My food was lackluster and watery (pasta). Terrible waste of a date night and hefty bill.

We stopped by on Christmas Eve Eve, and it was such a fun, low-key way to kick off the holiday. The vibe was super chill the second we walked in. A solid neighborhood brewery with good energy. The bartender was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference, especially during a busy holiday week. It felt like the kind of place where regulars hang out, but newcomers are just as welcome. They had live music going that night, which added to the cozy, festive feel without being overwhelming. You could still talk, laugh, and actually enjoy your beer, which I appreciate! It felt more like background vibes than a full-on concert, in the best way. I ordered the Lindy Light, and it was exactly what I wanted: crisp, refreshing, and easy to drink lager. Perfect if you're not looking for something super heavy or complicated. The tap list had a nice mix overall, so whether you're into lighter beers or want something with a little more character, there's definitely something for you. They also have NA and cocktail options. The space itself is casual and comfortable. Nothing fancy, but that's part of the charm. It's the kind of place you can pop into for one beer and end up staying longer than planned. Friendly staff, good beer, live music, and an easygoing vibe. I'd absolutely come back, especially around the holidays or anytime I'm in the area looking for a relaxed hang.
