We love grabbing drinks here, playing games from their huge selection, or catching a game on one of their TVs. It's extremely family-friendly--you'll see plenty of parents with babies and kids--but it's also a great hangout for singles and groups, with a crowd that ranges from 20s to 50s. They offer a vast selection of beer, IPAs, and sours on tap, plus a solid handful of wine options. There's also a refrigerated section on the right with canned drinks, including hemp, CBD, and THC-infused options, and even kombucha for those skipping alcohol. We've been coming since they opened, and it's been fun to watch the concept evolve. Most recently, a barbecue spot opened inside, and it looks like more food options are coming--think food hall vibes off to the right. There's also a cute coffee shop that opened in the same building. Bonus PSA: Chamblee has an open container law, so you can walk around with your drink and bop to other nearby spots with ease. Love that

They have a crazy list of beers on tap, but they also make great cocktails. You can walk in and sit at the very long bar or walk down the bar to get seated by the friendly servers in the back room. We love their mouthwatering goat cheese fritters to start our evening. Then the cauliflower makes you feel like you are eating healthy.

There is a cute patio area outside right in front of the taphouse and a little area that is shared by the other surrounding shops. There beers are really good.

The bartenders are super friendly and get your drinks to you fast. They make recommendations based on what you typically like- since they are mostly locally sourced drinks.

But nothing at all other than the beer list makes it feel 'brewery', it's very much an upscale interior, fanstic layout of sushi bar, regular bar, open air dining and outdoor patio. The food - wow. very unique flavor profiles, hearty, lots of great options between samplers, sushi, and main courses. Pro Tip - if you feel overwhelemed about the menu, most of the staff that i meet here know it very well and have worked here for a very long time, so feel free to ask, we were suprised by such a good selection of options by our bartender.

I was able to get a table right away. It was well lighted and there was some soft background music, plus TVs over the bar showing sports. I ordered a beer and the Katsu Curry. The beer was very good, a nice fizzy crisp beer. The curry was a large bowl with rice and shredded cabbage at the bottom and some curried vegetables alongside the panko crusted chicken breast sliced beautifully on top. Everything tasted great. On a slightly warmer day it would be lovely to sit outside on the patio.

I had an idea of what this place, but wasn't exactly sure what it all entailed. We walked in and were greeted by a large shelf or should I say shelves of a bunch of different board and card games. We walked to the register and told them we wanted to play some board/card games. I believe it was $7 per hour and then $35 for everything else. Everything else means all the video/electronic games. Think PS5, Switch, PC, Xbox. It was sooooo cool seeing everyone play all the different games. There were bigger groups, couples, people by themselves. It's truly a place where anyone can go and have a good time! We got some drinks (they have a really cool cocktail menu). They do have a food menu too, but we just came from dinner, so we only got drinks. Our service wasn't the best though. It took forever for someone to come and check on us, and no one came to fill our water the entire time we were there. Service could definitely be a lot better! Battle & Brew is in a shopping center, so there is plenty of parking. It's also pretty big too, so there is plenty of seating inside. I would definitely come back here in the future and play some of the video games, as I love to play some Nintendo Switch!

3.5 Despite having…read morenerdy tendencies, this wasn't the place for me. I'm thinking that I experienced it in its weaker era. I came here on a work trip so there was a LOT going on: food buffets, bar mania, games of all sorts. Had I come here with a group of friends to play games and sip on a drink I think I would have had a different (read: better) experience. That said, I appreciate that B&B exists and what it's trying to do. Despite being here as part of a big group, the staff was perfectly lovely and patient. That's not always the case when it comes to dealing with large groups. The food menu is confusingly large and caters to about every taste.* I got a little grossed out at the thought of eating around so much dust. Board games and consoles are dirty/dusty. They show both easily. Eating around/in that didn't appeal to me. What *did* appeal to me, though, was the thought of drinking a potion. From the glass (straight up D&D) to the color (blue), I was all in. The Mana Potion had a lot of the right elements (gin, blue curacao, elderflower liqueur, lemon, and Sprite) but the extra zhuzh for our party was team too much. The edible glitter made the drink a bit thick and didn't do wonders for my stomach. It's a tough criticism because I was here for an extra sparkly drink/potion. Definitely on brand. For me, Battle & Brew is an odd space that could benefit from some editing. But, it looks like I am in the minority. I can agree with not being the target audience. So, gamers, have at it! *I didn't experience much in the way of GF/DF/VG options but, again, target audience.

Great place for all ages, but love coming here without the kids - plus live music on weekends, sometimes featuring originals and lead-singing by staff.
