The selection skews towards IPAs but they generally have something for everyone. Each beer can come in different sizes depending how committed you are to trying a certain beer or just want a 5 ounce sampler. Food options here consist of some pretzel available to purchase but there is typically a food truck outside to help fill your stomach if you plan on staying awhile. The staff are not your typical bar staff but beer enthusiasts who are willing to wait on you hand and foot. The service is really top tier, the beers come out quick and they're always making their rounds to get your next drink.

The inside is very clean and simple - a nice, bright place to have a few drinks and chat with friends. The patio is great too when it's nice outside. All their brews are fabulous in my experience. My favorites are Great Plains Lager and the Cairns Pilsner (I am a fan of lighter beers if you couldn't tell). They have lots of different beer styles from Kölsches to Dunkels, and IPAs to Ales. So you'll definitely find something you like. They sell Kringles flavored pretzels for snacking on, or at least they did when I went last. Love those! Aside from that, they have food trucks that post up there as well, so definitely check their schedule to see who will be there when you want to go. For a local brewery, they have a pretty solid lineup of different brews, so I'd definitely check them out if you're in the Millard area!

It was a busy night and we were a bigger group, but we were still able to grab a table. Just a heads up, there isn't a ton of seating for bigger groups, so we felt lucky to find a spot! There were only one or two servers working, so we were ready to be patient and expect a wait, but they were so quick! I was impressed with their service. I also loved that you can try smaller tasters of their beers before committing to a full one. I had a taster of their raspberry hibiscus saison and a refreshing lager. All the pizzas we tried were so good! I was honestly surprised by how many interesting combinations they offer. The buffalo chicken was my favorite! Already planning to be back.

They have a room to the side that is perfect for birthday parties, celebrations come on any other events! The interior of the restaurant is unique and cool. I was told that a lot of it was sourced from an old church.

I actually fell in love with their Grand Cru back in 2007. It used to be a must-visit spot whenever I was passing through Omaha. Truth be told this latest visit felt a bit sad. The place just seems tired these days. The beers were okay but nothing really stood out on the creative side. They did have that Space Monkey Biermosa on the board but it just did not sound appealing to me. The food was decent enough. I ordered the jambalaya and it was pretty good. It had some nice subtle heat and the shrimp were cooked well. My wife went with the Mediterranean chicken but it was a bit of a letdown. It was dry and frankly quite bland. My son had the Blonde pizza and he did not have any complaints about his choice. I really hope they find some new fire soon. It feels like things are trending in the wrong direction every time I stop by. On the bright side our waiter with the red hair was an absolute rockstar. He provided great service and was definitely the highlight of the night. I wish I had remembered his name. We will see if we stop by next time we are on the road.

From food truck rallys, to date nights, and even a visit from santa claus, this is one of my favorite locations.

We came here for a santa visit last year and spent the whole day enjoying christmas movies, and even a little football. I tried two different flights while there. That's really my favorite way to brewery, is to sample it all. in their "party room" adjoined to the tasting room, someone was selling hot meals and on a cold winter day, it was perfect! The staff was super friendly, as we were in a huge group, and they took care of us so well all day. Check out their events calendar, they're always doing something here.

I have dined at both the brick and mortar Blatt in Legacy and this Westroads location - and the…read moreexperiences were wildly different. The standalone location in Legacy had a cool vibe with great staff who were eager to assist you in any way they can (filling waters, asking if you need more drinks, anything taken away, etc). The Westroads/Flagship Commons spot had none of that charm and service. It is very much a food court vibe for the exact same price that you'd pay at the actual restaurant. When we visited during holiday shopping recently, there was maybe one table seated in their little dining area. We thought we'd save everyone a trip and order at the front, which it appeared you could do. We asked two girls behind the counter if we could just choose a table in their (basically completely empty) seating area to wait for our food. And they said that you're not allowed to sit in this area (even if it's completely empty) if you didn't sit down in that area to have a server take your order. I've never hear of such an asinine policy in my life. I'm paying the same amount (and tipping the same), but I'm not allowed to sit in your dining area because I saved someone a trip and order myself at the front counter? What in the absolute world?? So we took our food and ate it in the communal area of Flagship Commons, which I'm not above doing or anything - I was just very annoyed by the Blatt seating policy (if you couldn't tell yet!) The food was also not on par here than with their brick and mortar locations. Maybe because they don't have as large of a kitchen to make everything from scratch or something, but again - paying the same as at the physical location in Legacy for lesser quality food. Is there a convenience of having this version of Blatt right in the little food court at the mall? I guess, but it's not worth it to me after this experience.

I started with the glass noodle salad - it was pretty light and a great start to the meal. The other appetizer, the shishito peppers, were also very tasty - they had an amazing sauce on them but be aware: one in our bunch was quite spicy (the rest were not spicy at all). I got the gochujang chicken wings and they were awesome. I have an average/low spice tolerance (maybe like a 3/10 is my preferred range) and these were about all I could handle while still being happy. Aka they're not overly spicy but they definitely have a kick. The flavor is so good though I would eat these any day. The other entree, the bahn mi tasted very fresh with the pickled veggies and the pork was also really good. The chocolate wontons for dessert were a great way to cap off the meal! The surprise lemon marmalade was delish! Our server was very nice, offering many refills of water (especially with the spicy pepper lol) and timing our plates to come out perfectly. Great ambiance in the area, not too busy on a Friday night but still had a good flow of people!
