We stopped by Forward Brewing for the first time just to grab a few beers, get out of the house,…read moreand relax for a while, and it ended up being a great evening. The service was excellent from the start. Since it was our first visit, the staff gave us some genuinely helpful recommendations instead of just pointing us toward the menu. We tried a few of the IPAs along with a cider and enjoyed everything we had. We also ordered the pretzels, which came out hot and were perfect with the mustard and cheese dipping sauces. Simple, but really good with the beer. One of the things that really stood out was how welcoming everyone was to our dog. They brought him a bowl of water without us having to ask, and a few members of the staff even stopped by to give him some attention and belly rubs. It was a small thing, but it made the whole visit feel especially friendly. The outdoor space has a relaxed neighborhood-brewery feel, especially in the evening with the string lights. Great beer, good snacks, friendly service, and an easygoing atmosphere. We'll definitely be back.

What kind of craziness is this? This must be the only place in Annapolis that requires you to have…read morea seat to get a beer??? Pick a bar ANY other bar in Annapolis. Walk up to the bar get a beer. Not walk up and be asked if have a seat somewhere before they hand you a beer. Hi Parice! I'm so sorry about this experience. The City of Annapolis requires us to have a seat for every person, even if they're just having a beer, so we have to seat everyone. We've had a host working weekends since we've been open to ensure this happens. Every table has a number on it now, and we should have done a better job about pointing you to that number before (or while) you ordered. I do hope you'll come by another time. Saturdays in June are some of our busiest days, but there are lots of other slower days when you can come in and easily get a table. Again, we're sorry for this experience and hope to see you again!

Pictured with my review, you'll see my margarita from where I sat at the bar, and happy hour meal, the boneless chicken wings and fries. This place was the perfect place for an office farewell!

Welcoming and friendly even when I tried to order at the bar instead going to the place at the end to order as the sign clearly states. Sorry I was born in Wisconsin. The wood fired Meat Lovers Pizza was tasty and enough for two. We had a pretzel order and the mustard was spot on. Our beer choice was Stringray Mysterio a very good stout. Also myself the navigator needed and wanted a Mead. So Pina Colada Crush was a perfect choice. We both loved the decor and vibes. The pizza oven which was a crab design was cute but I thanked the men preparing the outstanding pizza. All the staff were fantastic.

Our local neighborhood restaurant just went from one of our faves to probably number two (just behind The Garten). The welcoming and friendly service is truly exceptional.

The bartenders are great and the atmosphere is always fun and lively. The Thursday half-price bottles of wine is always a wonderful treat too!

Definitely worth a try if you're a kombucha lover For appetizers we tried the crispy kale, preserve pickles, and pickled green tomato salad. The kale was the favorite, hands down. It was so perfectly crispy with the most delicious cumin yogurt dollops. I could have eaten 3 more bowls of this! You have to try it The pickles and tomato salad were about equally good. Pickles were fresh and crunchy. Not too sour. Salad was also fresh and paired well with the goat cheese crumbles. For mains I can only speak to what I ordered which was the brunch burger. It was delicious! Ingredients were high quality, egg was perfectly runny, and overall everything about this burger was very well balanced. My friends also enjoyed their entrees and there were no complaints!

Bottom Line: Decent selection with some cool business ideas but service is lackluster…read more I'm desperately searching for my new go-to liquor store - the kinda place where you go every week and the staff recognizes you and offers a warm hello. I started my quest with Cheers & Spirits since they are so close to where I live and run coupons on the back of my Safeway receipts. I was able to find both beer and wine that peaked my interest so that was good. (I did not check out the liquor selection.) Where this store left me disappointed was with the customer service, or lack thereof. I guess I am old fashioned because I still have false hopes that store staff will say hello and offer assistance. Despite being the only person in the store, there was little service to be had. One employee had their head down distracted by their paperwork. Eventually, another staff member did come offer assistance when he saw I had my arms full (literally). I tried to engage him in conversation about various craft beers but he either didn't know the product or didn't seem too enthusiastic to talk shop. I'll give Cheers & Spirits another try because all businesses have their off days, but I'll also keep looking for my new go-to spot.
