    Above the bar and on the other side of the wall is the room where the beers are in tall holding tanks.

    First time here with friends! A simple menu with tasty apps & entrees. Good selection of drinks both non-alcoholic and of course beer. Today was 90s theme and there was activities outside with a lot of families and children toddling around. A few tvs decorated the walls to keep up with sport. Two dining areas and two sets of restrooms. Its a very calm neutral atmosphere with friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff.

    This was only our second time at Hidden Wit, which I'm honestly surprised at. I love that it's out of the way and away from all the hustle (at least for now). We have our dogs with us whenever we can. Both times we've been here the pups have been with us & welcomed outdoors. The back outdoor seating is very accommodating with some under cover. It's nice to come here and see families enjoying the space & see the children playing. Their menu choices seem to offer something for everyone. This time my Wife and I split the Beer Cheese/Soft Pretzels and the Nashville Chicken. Last time we had the Fish and Chips. All food has come out hot and exceeded the description on the menu in appearance and taste. We both really liked the Black Garlic Dijon with the Pretzels & Cheese. The beer choices look to change often enough to offer something new to try with each visit and the service both times has been friendly & attentive.

    Hidden wit is a great hangout spot. The food is really good however, I would not recommend the grilled cheese. Mine was a little overdone. My husband said the cheesesteak was phenomenal! The only downside we have run into is during the times we have been there, we have experienced the servers are no where to be found after we get our food so, plan on staying there for at least 2 hours. Overall, the food and environment are great. I'm excited to visit for their weeknight events.

    Loved everything about our experience: food, atmosphere, service! The sliders appetizer was delicious, and so was my fish and chips, just wish the portion was a bit bigger. The Hidden Wit sauce (I think that's the name) was so goood. Great beer selection, the signature Hidden Wit was very good, and so was the Strawberry Blonde. Highly recommend!

    Long Island Iced Tea. Delish! Not your run of the mill bar/brewery food. Whoever is in that kitchen knows what they are doing.

    Everything.. it's become our favorite watering hole. Food:100% above most of the restaurants in the area. Hubby says beer is great.. I have enjoyed several of the specialty drinks on the menu: love them all. Service is always top-notch.. friendly and knowledgeable. Fun atmosphere.. will have to wait until the weather cools off before we venture outside, which BTW is a good time waiting to happen. Live music, markets, pop up camps by Burn Woodlake. Seriously, I might move in.

    Not to be outfoxed, this hidden brewery is pretty cool. Newly opened, it's obvious the owners put a lot of thought in the design of the place. It's a huge space with a restaurant with TVs, a bar, foyer, and huge event room, plus an expansive outdoor patio with plenty of seating. The view is lovely, and you are surrounded by lush woods. They have outdoor games, fire pits, and cozy nooks to enjoy some brew time. Speaking of the brews, I think that they will get better with time. The guys in our group weren't crazy about the beer, but I had a light Pilsner and I found it refreshing. The food was great! My friends had a crab concoction that they devoured along with some roasted Brussels sprouts. We had burgers with skinny fries (the fries were good but super salty). The burger was delicious! This pet-friendly spot will definitely be a popular destination for families, friends, and anyone who is looking for a fun hang!

    Popped in late Sunday afternoon to check the place out. The place is large with lots of seating options (inside and out). Being an IPA fan, my guy got a flight of the three IPAs plus a Lager to fill the last spot of 4. I ordered a margarita as they have some cocktail options (and wine if desired). The margarita was meh. It didn't really taste like a margarita so maybe it was their take on one with a non traditional recipe? The feedback about the beer was that it was not terrible but didn't have much flavor. He wouldn't drink again. But our usual place is the Veil so tough competition!

    Autumn salad and grilled cheese!
    Christina T.

    We have been here a few times either for drinks with friends or for dinner and drinks. It's a cute little spot. It has a really nice outdoor space with areas for kids to play and they have a stage they built but we haven't seen a show there yet. The beer list is a pretty good size with a mix of lagers, stouts, sours, IPAs. The food is great but kind of pricey. Last time we were there my husband and I shared the wings, a salad and the grilled cheese. It was a little too much but tastey. The grilled cheese was decadent and the wings were amazing! We got their autumn salad and our only complaint was the squash it came with was cold and cold squash is not my jam. It's definitely worth going to check out but if you want to keep the price reasonable share a plate or just share some apps.

    Hidden Wit is a total hidden gem! The location is right off 360 and a beautiful space! While the location is new, the brews and food feel like they've been an establishment for years! They have amazing food that's everything from shareables and apps, to high end filet mignon. There are many beers to choose from that offer a variety of tastes multiple options. Not a beer drinker? No problem! They have wine and bourbon too and are happy to make you a drink of your choice. They have yard games, multiple spaces for hanging out and beautiful dining rooms! Check this out on a nice day or during a rain storm. You'll enjoy it in any weather!

    As we entered through the door, we were warmly greeted and quickly seated. Our server Annabelle was kind, attentive and knowledgeable about the food and drink menu. That's all great... but what about the food / drinks? Fantastic. My wife had a Super Major beer, and I tasted it as well. It was delicious and not overly creamy like some stouts can come off. The food was careful prepared and also delicious. They pair the sides extremely well, even seasoning the fries differently depending on the dish. Bold flavors to be expected, as you would hope in an upscale pub. I highly expect we'll be back!

Reservations made well in advance is a must unless you're going at less popular times. Unfortunately parking is always a challenge because of reserved parking so plan ahead and come early if I have a reservation. Lots of steps leading up into the building but there is a ramp for handicap access. Kids were in town so we were visiting all our favorite places. Blue Atlas tapas style variety is always a hit with us. The only disappointment this time was the Elote dumplings. They were basically just corn gnocchi. Not a terrible flavor, but wouldn't bother ordering again. We started with some pretty fun cocktails, and a highlighted wine which I wish I could remember the name of...i think it started with N...It was a light bodied wine with mild floral notes, and a Prosecco feel without the bubbly that went perfect with all the plates. For cocktails, we got tea ceremony, la Siesta, Nicolada. I loved la Siesta and Tea ceremony for their uniqueness and smooth delivery. My son has a sweet tooth for cocktails, which the Nicolada fit but probably a little too sweet for me. For food we got the ever reliable pork belly Bao buns -a bit on the pricey side when you have to order extra to serve a table of four at $6 each, Next the aforementioned elote dumplings, -tacos de trucha which was good but not my favorite, -hanger steak, -Malaysian fried chicken - delicious and a good deal, -shish Barak; unique, and very tasty, -Vietnamese prawn toast, which was delicious , - -steamed mussels- good and enjoyed by most, and the -tortilla Española; solid but underwhelming compared to everything else. Also ordered the Brie special with toast that I loved but some of us got part of the rind which there was a lot of so wasn't as enjoyable for them but the flavors were there. Would've liked a few more heavy protein options but this did not affect our enjoyment of the meal. The hanger steak exceeded my expectations. I'm not always up for steak, but this was done perfectly and well accompanied with a marinated summer squash, cherry tomatoes, and pickled peppers. For dessert we got the ice cream sandwich and the chocolate banoffee budino. They were all out of the Black Forest meringue, so unfortunately, we could not try that. The ice cream sandwiches were a hearty serving and enjoyed by everyone at the table, but I thought the banoffee budino was the best. Unique and very tasty. Would have ordered one to have by myself if I wasn't so full lol.

The last sandwich was the Italian without pepperoni, onions and banana peppers which was served on a baguette roll and came with high praise, as well.

The chef was pretty resistant to any requests for substitutions, so do with that what you will. They certainly knew what they were doing in the kitchen. The duck, with the chard mixture, was amazing work. The burger is probably the largest dish on the menu, it's pretty substantial and was very tasty. I'll also shout out the pickles on the meat and cheese board, they had a significant spicy kick but were delicious and I wanted more in the end. The service was great, our man was very involved and had a lot of knowledge about the menu. It honestly was pretty quiet for a Friday night; the Tobacco Company is right down the block but you would never know it in here. The decor in here is also very interesting, there are tables with couch seating on one side. Everything's very sleek. Delightfully clean bathrooms. We enjoyed it, though I'm not sure when we'll be back for a meal as the menu is ultimately pretty small.

Our waitress was untrained, super busy visiting her friend the entire time and unable to handle any request. Menu says wings come with a choice of two sauces (ranch, honey mustard, blue cheese, hot honey). We ordered the wings with ranch and blue cheese. The wings came with just ranch and so we asked the waitress. Hey we asked for the ranch and blue cheese. She said we don't carry blue cheese. We said, it says it on the menu. She said, I know it does, but we don't carry it. (hold that thought it gets funnier later ) My mom got a salad that came with balsamic dressing. She asked for olive oil and vinegar and waitress said the only dressing choice besides balsamic was ranch. I got the wedge salad with... guess what.... blue cheese dressing which actually came on it so they do in fact, have blue cheese dressing So then one of the other waitresses from the behind the bar came over to check on us and I said we ordered the wings with blue cheese and ranch, but we only got ranch. And she said OK I'll get you some blue cheese. And I said also do you have olive oil and vinegar. She said yes I'll get you some olive oil and vinegar. Both things that we had asked our original waitress, who continues to be visiting with her friend and taking selfies with her friend and had said these items were unavailable available. So the attentive waitress comes back, not with oil and vinegar, but with a dressing container, full of just olive oil ‍, and not a dressing container with blue cheese dressing, but a dressing container full of just blue cheese crumbles‍. OK, we are going to deal with that. I mean, blue cheese crumbles are great, but they were a little hard to dip your wings into!!. So we asked that waitress for an extra ranch which she immediately brings and we put the blue cheese crumbles into one of the ranches and basically make our own blue cheese dressing. Problem solved. (except for the olive oil and vinegar situation which we just dropped at this point.) Our original waitress never bussed our table for over an hour. We had long finished our cocktails, and they were obviously watered down and done, and we had moved onto a bottle of wine. (I had to go up to the bar and order a bottle of wine myself because again she was clearly at work for other reasons besides actually doing work). Long after we were halfway through the bottle of wine she swaggered over and asked if we needed anything which at that point the only thing we needed was a clean table, but we chose not to ask her for it at that time. So this is the Farmville plague. We have places that have potentially good food, have a nice venue, in this case, a fantastic view, but management continues to hire Longwood students who have no experience in the food, industry, or even any personal experience of nicer dining themselves. And there's no manager watching what these kids are doing and guiding them. We see this over and over again in Farmville where the restaurant has potential, but they just won't train their waitresses. Un-bussed table for the duration of our stay. Incorrect information about what dressings they do and don't have. Lackadaisical attitude about getting us anything outside of what she could punch into the computer straight off the menu. And as seen in the pictures, getting paid by the hour to socialize with her buddy. A real shame for such a beautiful rooftop bar that actually has good food
