This place had pretty cool atmosphere and had a couple beers I liked. They had a decent variety of beers to choose from. The mouth breather was my favorite, it was a mild hoppy beer. I tried 5 beers in my flight and it was only 8 bucks so not to bad. I'd come here again to hang out. read more

Great atmosphere. We have eaten here several times and enjoy sampling the beverages and appetizers. Recently took our parents to eat her for the first time. The biggest challenge is consistency in quality, and cutting corners. We love the wings, but they are never quite the same each time we come. This visit the blue cheese dip (which is always my fav) was watered down and tasteless. Disappointed, but I will be back to order again as the wings are amazingly tender and tasty. We tried the pretzel app for the first time. The pretzels were perfectly cooked, and the spicy mustard served with this was ....wow can I get an order of this to take home good. But, we couldn't figure out the weird odd texture of the cheese dipping sauce. It was not good. We later figured out when our meal was served that the cheese dipping sauce for the pretzels was also the cheese soup served with my mothers 1/2 chicken sandwich, Note: Soup is NOT dipping sauce. Great restaurant, I would recommend that you try. Perfect date night or friends gathering setting, Suggestion for owner: Don't start cutting corners, even the smallest thing like a sauce can ruin an experience. read more

I'm not a huge beer drinker so bars and breweries aren't really my thing. I do love food though especially wings so I had to try a couple of orders from here as they're known for them. Easy ordering process and the place was clean and had a fun decor. I had my son with me and noticed quite a few families there too so I'd say it's family friendly here. Now the wings... DELICIOUS. Dry rubbed and smoked. So money! Service was friendly also. I'll be back! read more

Great neighborhood place! Quality food, kind servers. Only disappointment is they've made their menu smaller during COVID and no longer have our favorite dish which is what brought us here in the first place. Go back to what you were doing, and we will be back! read more

We go to the one in Centerville. They have the Beat Wings. They are smoked but not over smoked and the Beer selection is always a treat. Great Job Lock 27 JB Davis read more

We love the wings here, but they are not always consistent in taste. Feels like there is a different chef each time. The wait staff always act busy no matter what their guest list looks like. Also, why do they often seem to have a problem with one another? "I'll let your server know." Why cant you just help her out? I hope things improve over there. We like going there but the inconsistency and the tension are getting to me. read more

Went there for a work team decompression meeting today. Had seen some previous negative ratings but wanted to give it a try to be with the team. Very limited non alcohol selection....not even ice tea, only sodas. I ordered a Sierra Mist, only tasted the soda water and told waitress She said that they had just reloaded the syrup but others had said the same thing before. Didn't offer me another choice or another attempt at the Sierra... not very customer satisfaction oriented, but didn't charge me on my bill, good thing. Had the Bacon Cheeseburger and fries.....fries were just okay and Cheeseburger wasn't anything to write home about. My fellow revelers were not impressed with their food selections either. Place was getting hopping about 4pm but seemed to be all about the brews. So unless you are just going for the brews, save your time and money....I won't be back. read more

I love this place. Great food and drinks and atmosphere. I just wish it was larger! Menu is seasonal and my food has always been delicious! It seems each time I visit I see something on the menu I've never seen on a menu anywhere around the Dayton area. read more

My last visit here I ordered a Reubens sandwich. The corned beef was all fat and grissel and unedible. Can't go back to a place that didn't respect my business enough to seve that type of food and didn't make it right. read more

Delicious food and we were seated quickly while waiting at the bar area. Thank you very much to the manager and all the wait and kitchen staff that made our visit such a wonderful, pleasant and fun experience. Would definitely recommend this place to all our colleagues, friends and family. read more

Absolutely brilliant food for the price you pay. Beer selection wasn't huge but had a good balance of darks, seasonal drinks, ciders, and IPAs. The atmosphere and staff were wonderful as well. read more

Lock 27 is a great brewery for the Dayton suburbs. Good beer and food. We had the Lock Tender and Mouth Breather. The beer is good, but nothing exceptionally memorable. Was very surprised with the quality of food. We had the brisket sandwich and smoked salmon slider. Both were great, but what really made it was the frites and dipping sauce. We had the pesto sage and spicy garlic mustard; they were both on point. The staff were very pleasant. read more

Several trips to Lock 27 and I must say they are awesome. From the excellent burgers and fries to the great brew they offer you just can't go wrong here. The service has always been fantastic and with the COVID issues they are doing a great job! Thanks Lock 27 Brewery! Thanks again, Chris C. read more

Great service,decent food,and excellent beer. I'll have try some of their other dishes before I can a better review. The only thing I can say is I wasn't impressed with the fish and chips. I enjoyed this place otherwise tho. read more

Really nice place. Great c CC is tuner service but their prices are too expensive for the amount of food you get.

Excellent beer and food with a great atmosphere. Service is always friendly and helpful. One of the areas top brew pubs.

Naturally, one of the best breweries in the Dayton area is in Centerville. I haven't had a bad experience in this town, so I expected nothing less from their brewery. Lock 27 is up and coming, but it's not too obvious. Their food selections pair quite well with their beer selections. My mom and I ordered their salmon quesadilla and I got a flight sampler of the beers I thought sounded the most appealing. Most were average, but their pumpkin ale blew my mind. I wanted to consume large quantities, but, unfortunately, they ran out during our visit. Our server was quick to offer a couple similar brews, but neither matched the perfection that was their pumpkin ale. I suppose I'll have to come back closer to Halloween to get my fill. read more

Great beer, great food and wonderful atmosphere!! You can't go wrong in trying this place. I can't wait to try the beer they brew themselves when it's done. The salumi plate was amazing!! I love locally owned places and the staff and owners are great! read more

I'll readily admit--I'm not a a beer fan. Given the choice, I will likely have the girliest drink at the table, mainly because it tastes the best and has the most booze in it. But, when I hear tell of an honest-to-god gastropub in Dayton, complete with its own microbrewery? Count me in for a trip to Lock 27 in Centerville. I'll leave the details on the beers for some other, more educated reviewers while I focus on the food. Suffice to say, though, the brews on tap looked gorgeous and Lock 27's entire brewing operation was on full display through the dining room and back portion of the restaurant. They do have tasting flights, so you beer connoisseurs can try a solid selection of their stock for a low price. The food, though! My word, the food! Jules and I started with a salumi plate which was nothing short of phenomenal: two types of salami, Italian prosciutto, and an ephemeral, lovely German salumi that--curse my memory--i cannot recall the name off or the life of me. At $14, the salumi plate seems a bit expensive, but the flavors and tastes make an otherworldly lead in for a great meal. If that's too rich for your blood, Lock 27 offers a great series of tasting plates, which can really whet your appetite before a meal or in between brews. For our meals themselves? Jules had a chicken, apple, and feta panini, which she devoured ravenously. I, on the other hand...I opted for a true bar classic from the great white north: poutine, made with a stout-braised beef and Belgian style frites. The flavors of cheese, beef, potato, and sauce melded like old dance partners in a bowl of utterly epic eating. My only minor quibble was that the gravy was just a touch thin for my preference, but the flavors were spot on. And for $10? I was full for almost 8 hours! Can't beat it! While we visited on off-hours, Lock 27 was fairly quiet, despite the Saturday football games and several beer specials on tap. I genuinely hope that they succeed and stick around, because we'll absolutely be repeat customers. Oh, and a bonus for my fellow geeks out there? it's right across from Epic Loot, a phenomenal game and hobby store. Go grab some dice and then raise a glass! You'll love it! read more

The pirogies are crazy good! They are a must try! we also had a chicken/mustard panini that was really good! My only peeve is that they label themselves as a "microbrewery" but their brew window/room seemed more for show. However, being a frequenter of microbrewery, warehouse type bars, I knew that this was not it. They didn't even make most of the beers offered (can/bottle). Phenomenal food, imprecise labeling. Still I'm not mad! I can't wait to eat there again :) read more

Way over priced, and not good food. The Wedge Salad is not a wedge. It is a slice. A slice of lettuce is $9. Fries looked fresh cut, but way over cooked. Capri Panini was dry and only ate half. Disappointing to say the least. Also, they have a "Quarantine Room". WTH?? read more

Lock 27 Brewing Restaurant - Breweries Near Me - Centerville, Ohio

During a recent trip to Centerville, we stopped into Lock 27 for dinner on a Sunday evening. There were five adults and two small children. The interior is a bit small, but there's also a nicely sized patio area that sits around 20 or so people. The decor is industrial chic, inviting and warm. We were served by Ryan who did his best to deal with our large party. I was in the mood for a cocktail, but learned that they do not have a permit to sell liquor on Sundays. Instead, I chose a glass of their pinot grigio ($7.50). I would have ordered a second, but my empty glass was taken away mid-meal and I was never asked if I wanted to order another. My father, brother in-law, and mother each enjoyed a glass of beer - they make some of it on site, so that's pretty awesome. We noticed a lot of people ordering their smoked wings, so we also placed an order. We were very pleased with them. They were meaty, juicy, and packed with a lot of flavor. You can order them with a dry rub or spicy sauce. We opted for the dry rub with the spicy sauce on the side. You won't be disappointed here. For dinner, two of us ordered the chicken panini. Instead of going with their fries (which I learned were a bit dry from others that had them), I paid an extra $2 for their orchard salad. I was quite surprised to see that they gave me an entree side when it eventually made its way to the table. Hey, I wasn't complaining. Given this isn't a Thai restaurant, I was a bit surprised that my sister ordered their Thai curry. However, she was really happy with her meal. Our waiter had mentioned a previous guest that has traveled all over the world telling him that their curry was the best he'd ever had. With a statement like that, I guess you have to order it, right? To round things out, my brother-in-law ordered the Big Italy burger. I really didn't pay too much attention to his meal, but he seemed to really enjoy it. Drinks and dinner (adults only) combined, the total came to $111 with tax.

Honesty just wasn't that impressed. Got the special an Ahi Tina salad. As my anything cute guy and it cost $17! Overpriced in my opinion. Most of the menu seems a bit expensive. Bar tender was ok. Not super friendly. Place was ok but just not somewhere I get excited about. read more

I don't know why their prices are so high, this is not a high class restaurant. My food looked like an appetizer, I got mahi mahi tacos, with some deep fried flour tortilla chips 6 maybe ,greasy and floppy, my tacos were ok, my black beans had maybe 6 teaspoons of beans. I was not impressed to be honest. Not for the price. My son got pasta ala vodka, vodka sauce is traditionally a cream based sauce and this clearly wasn't had I not looked at the price until after he ordered it he would have never got it. It had so much red peppers in it, he wasn't impressed nor finished the 17 dollar dish. I wouldn't come back here just cause the prices aren't even worth paying for what you get! read more

The Lock 27 wings, poutine and frites are all excellent. The wings are done in a dry rub that has the right amount of spices. Exquisite!

Great local eatery with some excellent house made craft brews on tap! Check out the delicious burgers, well priced flights and very unique appetizers. We had the poutine with beef and it was very good if a little light on the cheese curds. You will not be disappointed in the cozy atmosphere with wood accents that appear everywhere, including the unique serving racks for beer flights and the check holder! read more

Really torn on this one, if they had 1/2 star ratings I would have opted for 3.5 stars, some things were in the "yay, I'm a fan" category and others were in the "A-ok" category. They have a decent selection of beers most of which they brew on site and the one I choose was really good, my wife took quite a while to pick one and after they went behind the bar they determined that something had happened to that particular beer and she had to select another one. One thing I thought was cool was that they gave everyone complimentary jars of bacon to munch on (I think this was just a special thing and not a regular practice though), I mean beer and bacon, how can you go wrong with that? really unique and they should maybe keep that a regular thing, very unique! A couple of things I didn't like: The service was pretty slow, we were almost finished with our food before we were asked for refills on our beer (we had been there for maybe 45 minutes at this point) and I don't remember them asking how our food was after we received it. Also, they played some sort of crazy techno / new agey music which was very annoying for the first half of our visit. Also in my opinion it was a little pricey, 3 beers total, 1 small-ish turkey sandwich and an order of the poutine (more on that in a minute) and the total was $almost $50.00 with a tip. My wife really enjoyed the turkey sandwich, cream cheese, sprouts, turkey, on a nice french baguette. I opted for the poutine (steak fries, beef gravy, rib meat, cheese curds, and a sunny side up egg on top), it was really good! My only critique of the food was that the gravy they used on the poutine tasted to me like the stuff you get out of a jar at the grocery store, not that it was bad really (the dish was really good actually), just one of those familiar flavors. They have a lot of potential here, great beers, good food, decent location, did I mention the free bacon? Maybe a return trip will be a little better. read more

Literally everything is good here. Their specials rotate each week and they always have a speciality burger, with the beef from keener farms. Their wings are amazing and their best drink is the sangria with a shot of vodka. We're regulars and keep returning read more

Great place, amazing staff, the best smoked hot wings have ever had. Very good golden IPA, with nice IBU, and a higher carbonation level to bring the beer together. They only had three beers on tap, but they had other breweies beers tapped too, so you can taste the local fair. Two ladies (patrons) here told me that this is the best beer and food place around this area (and they dont even like breweries). Midwestern hospitality at its best. A- read more
