    My husband and I wanted a meal after hanging out with friends for the Bills playoff game, that didn't end so well for Buffalo. We walked to Immigrants Son Brewery. The vibes were great. Breweries for some reason almost always offer a killer menu for individuals who are gluten free, and I am always thankful for that. We ordered the Korean sticky chicken bites for an appetizer. They were wonderful. What I didn't appreciate was that about 5 minutes after receiving the appetizer, we got our food. I hate when the meal feels rushed or hurried. I like to give myself time to breathe between courses. The chicken was really good. The next morning I ate them for breakfast and they were nice and crispy and flavorful. I ordered the gluten free fish and chips. The fish was coated with a potato crust. It was very good. I enjoyed the tartar sauce as well. The lemon fennel salad hit the spot and was a great marriage of flavors for the entire dish. It was also served with fries. My husband ordered the patty melt that was on special and took half of it home. I had a cider on tap, which was labeled dry, but a little sweeter than I like, and Phil had a beer and liked it because it tasted like a beer. The one thing I didn't appreciate was the added "convenience fee" on the bill. Not sure what that was for, but it wasn't anywhere on the menu, nor did I see it in a sign somewhere. The waitress wasn't really friendly. Would I come back? Absolutely. I would just ask them to give us some time in between the appetizer and food. It wasn't busy where they had to move us along either.

    Chicken paprikash

    I love chicken paprikash and theirs might be the best I've ever had! Rich, hearty and served over fresh spaetzl. The plate was as beautiful as it was delicious. They offer a large variety of beers. Our server was very knowledgeable and offered great recs. I wish I could remember the name of my beer, but I do remember that I really liked it. While the paprikash was the star of the day, I have to share how tasty the Loaded Lángos were... Wow! These were a total surprise. Packed with flavor and texture and color. I wish they were closer, I'd be there weekly.

    Love that they rotate their beers pretty often. The space is pretty big with two different dining areas. I've only been here for trivia on Tuesday nights which is in the secondary dining room. They offer happy hour all evening for trivia which is nice. Most of the beers are basic lagers, kolsch' and ipas. Nothing too inventive, but they do a good job. I recently got the orange pearl kolsch, which I enjoyed. Their food is okay. I've had the poutine which didn't have a ton of flavor but was fine. Their fries are shoestring but also really short so you definitely need to eat them with a fork. Not my favorite. I recently got the French onion soup, which I did enjoy and it was a good size. In general, I haven't heard great things about their food though, so I haven't tried much. Service is okay. Since I usually come for trivia, it tends to be a little slow as there's only 1 or two people servicing the whole room. They are friendly though. They have a parking lot out front, but it's not huge. Be careful on a busy evening not to park in front of the building next door, you may get towed.

    Lakewood's only brewery is one of the best in the Cleveland area, with friendly staff, chill vibes and good food -- in addition to tasty beer, of course. I've mostly been for dinner with friends but recently went for my birthday brunch because we needed someplace that opened earlyish (at 10) and could accommodate a small child. Our 1yo inhaled his ham & cheese omelet, and the rest of us got to enjoy a nice, leisurely, somewhat boozy brunch -- perfect! I got the blueberry beer, which I loved (super refreshing) and the basic breakfast, which came with toast, eggs, bacon and cheesy scalloped potatoes. The whole family agreed that they were some of the best breakfast potatoes we'd ever had. My husband and father-in-law both loved the croque monseur, and we finished with an apple crisp that was big enough for us all to share. In all, a delicious, lowkey experience that I'd return to and recommend.

    PIEROGI WEEK 2025: Braised Beef pierogi
    Gillian S.

    PIEROGI WEEK 2025 SPECIAL My friend and I came this week for Cleveland Pierogi week 2025 & their special pierogi menu! We both got 1 braised beef pierogi and the chicken paprikas pierogis! The braised beef was yummy and giant!! The chili braised beef inside was so yummy!! I was skeptical of the pickled carrots and the celery root puree... but it all paired so well together!! And our favorite.. the chicken paprikas pierogis... DELICIOUS!! I could eat a whole bowl of these... my only complaint is that I wish I could've had more of the sauce on top!! Can't wait to come back and try more things and maybe try some trivia that is hosted here on Tuesdays!!!

    One of my favorite restaurants in Lakewood Ohio. I've gone for St.Patrick's Day, Mother's Day and just because. Food is amazing and their local brews outstanding. Wish I had a photo of their excellent Friday fish fry. Beer flights also available. Love the Dunkel!

    Loaded fried bread
    Jordan N.

    Been here a couple times and it's been great each time. The beers are some of the best I've had! They have a wide variety. I personally like light beers, like lagers with fun flavors. I got a blueberry one was that delicious! And my husband got one, called street something..., and it had citrus flavors and it was delicious as well! This time we sat out on the little patio and it was nice! Nothing fancy, but they did what they could with a small space! The inside is really cute too though. I love that the menu changes from time to time. This time, we tried the fried bread and it was very filling and unique. It was like an upscale elephant ear ! I loved that this place also included several GF, vegan, and vegetarian items. I'm a vegetarian, so I got the house made black bean burgers as a substitute for the smash burger. They definitely could have made the patty smaller, as it drowned out the taste of the caramelized onions and Swiss that were on it. So that was a little disappointing. The zucchini fritters were unique and good, but I think I'd stick with the fries next time! Overall I would definitely recommend this place !!

    I went for beer and burgers and that's what they provided. I had a flight of beers to start and followed it with a smashburger. Both hit the spot. Service was efficient.

    Immigrant Son - Pot du Crème dessert.
    Jeff D.

    Assuming this was a typical brewpub, we were not in a hurry to check them out. That was a big mistake. During Pierogi Week we thought there offering was the best we sampled and that convinced us to come back and try the rest of the menu. That was a good decision! My wife loved the Shrimp and Grits because it wasn't overrun with hot, spicy supplements that often blanket the flavor. I really enjoyed the Meatloaf because it wasn't as heavy as this dish sometimes gets. The Pot du Crème was also different, with the addition of ice cream and nuts. Overall, this was a fortunate find all thanks to Pierogi Week. Who'd have thought? The moral of the story is never underestimate the food at a brewpub.

    Good vibes! Went there on a date and is a nice spot. Very bright and well lit for a mid day date spot. Our bartender was very knowledgeable and helpful. Would be back!! (Did not eat so comments on the food).

    Stephen L.

    Very lit and vibrant, great to come on a sunny day. Bartenders are always cool and knowledgeable. Never ate anything bad here, pretty solid food. Rotating beers, youll always find something you like.

    Atmosphere, food, and drinks were on spot. We had reservations for a birthday party on a Saturday night, the bar was packed. The selection of craft beers was wide and not just run of the mill. Or server made suggestions for drinks and appetizers. We started with oysters, umm they were fresh and delicious, moved on to the charcuterie board and it was huge. We ordered burgers, salads and full meals. Everything was delicious, fresh and full of flavor. We will definitely be back.

Around 5:45p the entire place was full. We were able to park in the back lot they share with a coffee shop next door. The lot is not huge so if it is busy you would likely have to park on the street. Eugene is name of the kitchen. They have a limited menu, but what they make is very good. We ordered at the window and took a number to our table. The service was quick and staff were friendly. While we water for food it was the perfect time to decide what we were going to drink. They were offering a hybrid cider/IPA made with Koji and in conjunction with Larder. It was so refreshing. I would definitely order it again. The space is rustic as described and spacious. There is a party room and patio. I am looking forward to visiting the BottleHouse in Cleveland Heights.

My…read morefriend and I visit our respective BottleHouse locations - she's a regular at the West Side location, I sometimes visit the East Side location. We just spontaneously attended book swap at Lakewood BottleHouse. It was my first visit to BottleHouse out West. AMBIANCE: The ambiance simultaneously caters to various guests. It's refreshing to see this at the brewery. There's a large wooden bar perfect for guys' nights. Secluded room with twinkling bottles descending from the ceiling that's ideal for celebrations. Enclosed patio for friends' get togethers. Large open space for groups and events. More dim area for intimate dates. I personally found the dim area to be too dim for my eyes. I love that one can go to this mead hall, and experience a different setting every single time. FOOD/DRINKS: BottleHouse Lakewood has a kitchen as opposed to the East Side's food partnerships/pop-ups. We didn't order food but the book swappers were raving about their fries. My friend and I were most interested in our BottleHouse favorite - mead. I tasted their sweeter meads before and loved them. I ordered Metropolis mead this time (highly recommended by the bartender). My mead was the color of bold red wine. Metropolis was described as a semi-dry black currant apple mead with spices (clove and allspice). This mead wasn't my favorite, it was too acidic, bitter, and bold. For the pour size it wasn't worth over $12. I more gravitate toward golden and light meads. While I won't be sipping on Metropolis again, I look forward to checking out other meads here. If you're also a mead fan, find the list of their four meads in red on the chalkboard at the bar. SERVICE: Service was amicable. Most service was self-initiated at the bar. Drinks and food can be ordered at the bar. Your servers will find you by the number you will be provided. I look forward to visiting this location to taste other meads. Unlike other nearby businesses, this spot is open on Sundays late into the evening. It makes it an ideal low key hangout spot for Sunday spent with friends in trendy Lakewood.

The service is less than by far not good. It was like they had 1 girls and she was in the weeds most of the time. It took way too long to have to order- and then took too long to get the food - the only thing that was fast was getting my check and making it to the airport. The server didn't smile she would've rather been somewhere else I'm sure. Then the big one- a customer was letting their children run around like it was daycare center - any proper place would've addressed the parent that this is a liability - if the child were to fall and hurt themselves, they would be able to sue that restaurant but instead, I had to feel like I was sitting in romper room for most of the time I was there while this child just ran around now this has nothing to do with the server what it has to do with his management and leadership not addressing that issue. That's a halfway decently nice restaurant, but I wouldn't tolerate that even if I was sitting at a McDonald's or an Applebee's of someone just letting their child run around and hide tables and stomping around and screaming, and making all kinds of noise it was complete bullshit. So whoever is the owner and or manager that was on shift that day should have addressed that issue or have the server addressed the issue. So be prepared if you go during lunchtime that it may or may not be a daycare center.
