The food is pretty-dern good and the flatscreens with various athletic contests are plentiful. The inside is bright and energetic befitting its sports-bar / college-kids bar vibe.

I recommended to catch a game and likely host your college-student children and their friends when visiting from out of town ;)

Piedmont Ale House is a neighborhood bar and grill tucked away into an unassuming strip mall. They…read morehave a small outdoor patio, the main seating area and bar, and a separate connected room with several larger tables for groups of four or more. My husband and I stopped in on a Thursday evening around 7pm and the place was pretty full. We sat ourselves at a table in the back room, and I noticed how laid back the place was, which is something I really appreciate. Sadly, it seemed that the relaxed vibe extended a bit too far and reflected on their cleanliness, as I noticed all of the chair rails were dusty, the floors a bit littered, our table sticky, and the plastic menus in need of replacing. Service, however, was wonderful. Our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive given how busy she was. My husband was happy with their on tap beer selection, deciding on Red Oak ($3 on Thursdays!). I went with a margarita and it wasn't the best, but thankfully I didn't pay much for it since it was also on special. They were out of the southwestern egg rolls I initially ordered, so I ended up going with the Philly cheesesteak and homemade chips. I enjoyed the cheesesteak's fresh bread; plenty of tender meat, peppers, and onions; and gooey cheese. It could have used more mayonnaise, but it was still quite good. The homemade chips were tasty but undercooked; if I had been hungrier, I definitely would have returned them and asked for a fresh batch. My husband absolutely devoured the cheeseburger and fries he ordered. He said that it was one of the best burgers he's had in quite a while, and this is a guy who loves burgers and eats them often. I want to return to Piedmont Ale House in the future. I think there are some things they seem to do really well, namely burgers and beer at really reasonable prices!

On to what you're probably looking for, a review of the brewery. There is street parking available and a good number of spots. Not sure if it's free or not during the week. We arrived right at 12, so there were only three people there. The interior is mostly white, but they either chiseled away or put drywall up to expose brick. My friend and I both ordered the Wexford Red Irish ale. It was your typical amber beer. You could choose from several IPAs or other dark beers. Overall, nothing too memorable but a nice spot to stop by when you have time.

The staff is very friendly here and allows you to sample whatever beer you'd like before you make a choice. I love supporting local businesses and breweries. I've only had 2 of their beers but today that's gonna change! I will follow up with another update to this review shortly! Update: Beers I've had 1. Doppnator 2. Wee Bit Export 3. Gateway of India, IPA 4. Industrious Porter 5. Warrior Knight 6. Alt Refresh 7. Calibrator 8. Retro BSA So far all of these beers are great except the British Strong Ale which may not be my cup of tea and the industrious Porter. However, the porter tasted good I just couldn't drink a full glass. It's a heavy beer but that's expected with porters.

Also the bloody maryyyyyy ooOoOoooo. You get a choice of protein or veggie sticks. I ordered a veggie to split with the wife and they even put it in separate glasses for us. It was so good. Not too spicy at all. We had chicken and waffles and French toast. The French toast was hands down the best I have ever had! Chicken and waffles were delish. The chicken was cooked to perfection and we had a choice of syrup or hot honey. We tried both. The hot honey was great, not so hot that you couldn't enjoy it. The service was outstanding! We will definitely be going back!

They are eating at a table in the corner, not like they didn't see us. Then you get up saying "another one".. Such charm.

Let's not even comment on the floor. Please note it was 1:54pm when we arrived. Lunch rush doesn't excuse the attitude or total lack of cleanliness. You clean before you eat. The food is a NO. The price you pay for limp lettuce and cold appetizer is ridiculous. I will never return. They can't be bothered so I can't either.

Stopped by Drake's in Burlington last night around 9:30 PM with my nephew, and overall this was a…read morevery good experience. The food came out looking great. Everything was presented well, tasted good, and despite it being later in the evening, nothing about the meal or experience felt rushed or like we were getting the "end of the night" version of anything from them. Our server, Ty, was excellent. Professional, attentive, friendly, and simply good at her job. She stayed on top of everything without being too much, made sure we had what we needed, and helped make the entire experience enjoyable, which meant a lot to her since this was my nephew's first time here. The one area I'd improve is addressing the front door host area. Last night we stood there a bit longer than necessary, waiting for a hostess, before my nephew noticed the sign next to the stand telling guests to find their own seats. Once we saw it, no problem whatsoever. We grabbed a booth and carried on. BUT even better, if there isn't someone dedicated to the hostess stand later in the evening, a quick "Welcome in! Feel free to grab a seat anywhere" from someone nearby or working the bar (about 10-12 feet away from the front door) would immediately make the experience feel more intentional and welcoming. That's a relatively small issue, but it's also the difference between a very good (5-star) experience and a slightly lower one. Overall, good food, great presentation, and excellent service from Ty. She represented Drake's extremely well and absolutely deserves the recognition.
