Stopped here on our way home from Cuyahoga National Park. Wow! Great recommendation from my brothers. Sat out on the patio which has very little shade at noon. Was told they are having a permanent roof in stalled soon. We started off with the pretzels, mustard and beer cheese. Yum yum! Belgium triple was very good (9.5%). Even a better choice was the fried haddock. The fish was so crispy and the remoulade was a great addition to the fish. The side of pineapple mango slaw needed salt, pineapple, mango was not very tasty. French fries were hot, crispy and seasoned. Add a side of pickled onions. Kim was our server and she was so up beat and knowledgeable on the menu. Great food and service! read more

We're not in Akron often, but when we travel south, Lock 15 is on our rotation. The beer is good and after having tried most of the menu, the food is great too. I especially like the Shrimp and Grits. It's a bit different than most versions, more "stew-like" but excellent. The hand made chips are also fantastic. A pike of them and a beer could keep me happy for hours! Give it a try! read more

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat on a Sunday. Was a little disappointed in our food. We got the cold pork udon noodle salad which was very very salty. It really had an overpowering soy sauce taste. On first bite it was tasty but after eating about half the bowl it was way too overpowering. The fries were decent but not great. Not crispy at all. The green chile burger had a burger sauce on it but it really only tasted of mustard and it made the whole burger only taste of mustard. read more

It was raining but the front side patio with a fireplace looked nice on a clear night. Inside was very clean. The menu choices were about 10-12 beers, none that blew me away. Order a pretzel with beer cheese. Pretty solid. The smash burger was filled with flavor but very messy. Bun fell apart. My wife got cold pork salad that was very spicy/ hot and she returned it's as we had no clue the legend goes off. Didn't have many great stickers. The staff was trying their best. Overall a 6.8 out of 10. read more

Very cute inside, kind of by nothing else and a little hard to find the door! But once inside we had a nice time. The kids chicken is amazing I wanted to steal it. The kids burger is also amazing and the fries that came with both are so so good. I had the vegan veggie burger with homemade chips. Everything was great. Very nice server too! It's a little pricey which will prevent me from going all the time, but I will definitely be back. read more

We stopped here on our way to visit the University of Akron. The restaurant wasn't too crowded when we were seated but within minutes the place filled up. Our waiter was prompt and friendly. I had a flight with the smash burger, side of saffron rice and Brussels sprouts. It was brought out super fast and it tasted delicious. The room gave brewery vibes, as it should! read more

Was in the area and decided to stop in, unfortunately I didn't get to drink beer as I was the driver but I had a little sip and it was damn good! The food was good, the pictures speak for themselves, great service and great food. Can't go wrong, wish it was closer to Columbus but next time I'm in the area I'll stop by again. read more

Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon for an early dinner and was glad we did. My wife got the udon noodle salad with chicken and had a great flavor. I recommend if you have any leftovers, to heat it up as it tasted a little better with some warmth. The fish and chips I had tasted great, only criticism I have is I think the oil was past its prime as the fish was a little overdone. The Belgian triple was amazing and reminded me of when I lived in Belgium read more

A group of guys stopped for drinks and dinner at Lock 15 brewery. I had the Killer Fog IPA which is a black IPA. The IPA flavor was not very strong and it was just okay. The jerk chicken sandwich was not great and appears to be pulled chicken with a little flavoring that did not taste very much like jerk. We went on the day before Christmas Eve and sat by a table of 25 people who were extremely loud and ended up moving. Service was okay, nothing special. Hopefully our experience will be better next time. read more

Wow...the best food and beer in Akron. Great service and better beer in a relaxed casual atmosphere. The bbq Mac and cheese is amazing.

Stopped in before a concert at the Akron Civic Theater. I did some research about a week prior for a good place to eat and grab drinks before the show and came across Lock 15. I was able to make reservations and in the end, there were bar seats available when we arrived so we grabbed a seat there! Sampled a flight and ordered their smoked wings. The bartender suggested the Cajun wings with buffalo sauce. Great choice! Good kick and flavor was delicious. Enjoyed our flight as well. Surprising flavor we tried was a beer infused with Waffle Crisp cereal. It tasted just like the cereal! Had great service, the atmosphere was relaxing, and bathrooms clean. read more

Food was good. Wings were bland and didn't taste so good. But the service wasn't great. Jill was not happy to be there and made it feel like we were bothering her. It was Mother's Day so you would think the attitude could have been left at the door. Not even a hello but what you want to drink. Had to ask for a drink as she forget it. Just a bad experience. The smash burger was good. The venue was nice. We might try it again read more

The place is super cute in an old warehouse. Easy to find, service was great. A big plus was being able to make reservations and having a kids menu. Had one of the best sours ever (cherry pineapple) and everyone's food was great. Very family oriented and a cool place all-around. read more

we saw that the restaurant was pet friendly therefore we brought our very calm small dog. Immediately our waiter started making it seem like it was a problem that the dog was sitting in the middle of the isle leashed to the bench outside. Honestly fair complaint so I held her in my lap for a minute while moving her to a different area and I was immediately told I couldn't do that by our waiter. The food was good but long story short do not bring your little doggie here. :( read more

We went at 5:30 on a Sunday evening and the dining room was quiet and uncrowded. They were able to seat us at once. DH and I both ordered the fish and chips, which were just fine--pub grub, nothing fancy. I wish we had asked our waiter to ask the kitchen not to put added salt on the fries as they were pretty salty. Nice place! We'd go again! read more

Not quite ready to be done for the day, I stopped in here and spent an hour or two with a beer and some wifi. It's a nice place and seating the bar area was comfortable. Service was slow to start but we got there and I was able to enjoy my beverage and set up with the laptop for a bit. Lots of beer options, I enjoyed The Grandfather Lager. Tasty.

This is a great brewery. Great beer. Great food. Came here after a LONG ride on the tow path trail. I got a flight of beer. It came out in a little canal boat and I loved that. They have a very long list of their own beers with a lot of options. All four that I tried were great. I got a lock burger and fries, too. The fries were amazing and the burger was great. The patio had amazing vibes. I think part of it is made of the old lock wall? I'm a fan. The server was amazing and everything I ordered came out quick. Hit this place up on your next towpath ride in Akron. read more

During a cross country drive, we were on the last leg from SEA to Pennsylvania and were in dire need of a sit down, freshly cooked meal. We came across the highly positive reviews for Lock 15 and deemed it worthy enough to travel a bit off the beaten path and were so glad we did! We were greeted and seated right away on a busy Sunday night. Football was on all TVs. Service was friendly and the bartender recommended great in-house brews. Both dining and bar areas were busy, but clean and the vibe was still relaxing and provided a nice breather from the long drive. Definitely recommend, everything is amazing! read more

Come here. The exotic influences and attention to detail will have you experience food that, to be honest, I don't expect to find when pulling off for a meal in Akron, Ohio. The Mulligatawny Soup will have me driving back here as long as it's on the menu. Our server was great, Kim. Food arrived quick and was at great of temps. I want to come back in the summer. The patio looks like the place to be on a warm night. The location itself hold a lot of history and adds to the overall experience. 10/10 read more

Easy parking and good service. The rotating menu was limited but high quality. The sandwiches were very dry and while they had very good sauces they were extra. The sides were also lacking compared to the entrees read more

The service was on point. The place was set up quite well. You knew you were in a brewery and you could see the kitchen staff hard at work. It wasn't very loud but we went at an off time and you have a choice of indoor or out door seating. The food was really good. With the exception of the jalapeño grits. They should have been a bit creamier but they were on the dry side. The kids smash burger is huge but super tasty. We also had the chicken lettuce wraps with peanut sauce which was delicious. 4.5/5 stars. read more

This place is awesome - we came here for a business dinner and it definitely didn't disappoint. We had made a reservation for 20+ so they set us up with two long tables next to each other and assigned a few extremely friendly and efficient servers to our group, the service here was absolutely exceptional. We ordered lots of appetizers for both tables and all of them were delicious and came out quickly. I will say the Korean Wings were definitely my favorite and seemed to be the favorite of most in our group. I started out with the Christmas Ale without the brown-sugar coated rim it was served at the perfect temperature and a great choice I also decided to try a few other drafts which were equally satisfying. I chose the Pho for my entrée the broth was very rich and complex and paired with a large portion of duck meatballs and sliced smoky brisket along with tender rice noodles and a nice accompaniment of vegetables. Being the weather outside was in the low 30's and definitely something I am no longer used to this was perfect, after one taste it wouldn't matter what the weather is I'd order this again it is probably some of the best I've had...ever. This is a beautiful venue and they definitely can accommodate large groups, all the food was out of the kitchen fast and was delicious, the beers were outstanding and we couldn't have been more pleased with the service. I really hope we schedule future business dinners here, they really exceeded everyone's expectations... read more

We attended an event in the area on a Friday night and stopped in afterwards for a late dinner. The place was kind of winding down when we arrived but it seemed to be family friendly and probably a little on the louder side earlier in the evening. I was excited to try some craft beer and the squad car quad did not disappoint! My partner originally ordered a brew that was described as having a "hint of smoke" that really tasted like drinking a bottle of liquid smoke... but once that was sent back he got something more palatable. We shared the chicken saltimbocca sandwich and tried fries along with our chips. It was really good! Maybe a little light on the sauces for that much meat but delicious. The food runner offered a delicious gorgonzola sauce for our fries when I asked for ranch for dipping, and even though it's not in the picture, it was a real highlight! We mostly enjoyed the meal even if service lagged a few times. read more

Food is very good. service can be slow due to the crowd. noisy. we will go back for the food

Do you like fish & chips?! This place will make it so you never go anywhere else for it ever again, it's that good!! Ya, sure they are a brewery, the beer is good, but did I mention the fish & chips?! in all seriousness the portions are huge, the remoulade the serve with it is bomb (order extra) and the coleslaw is so unique! For drink options, they also have NA choices available so everyone can find something they like. The service... it's pretty good. It could be a bit better. I don't think the servers we've had have ever been the friendliest, but they are all working hard and by no means rude. The ambiance is very open, and a bit loud. A pretty casual environment. Highly recommended giving it a try! read more

Food was amazing, server was helpful but busy, outdoor seating isn't the best, but it works! Parking can be tricky, bring your truck!
