    Peanut Butter Treat Porter
    Ron R.

    When you get here you notice a beautiful scenic outdoor seating area with tables and bench seating. It is a smaller area but a nice little inside area. They don't have food with the exception of events that they have. The beers are nice especially the Peanut Butter Porter, which is truly amazing. It is definitely a good brewery to try for some good beer.

    Pavlov.   Hmmm...that name rings a bell!  (Rimshot)

    Start in "Downtown West Toledo" at Boyd's Candy Store, and drive north on Lewis. You'll go past Rudy's, the Four Horsemen, and the Michigan state line. Cross over Sterns, and look for an old bank building on your right...you'll have found Pavlov's Brewing Company. That's about 4.2 miles, but even if you had to drive 40 miles, it would be worth the trip. There are about 15 brews on tap at any given time, and the ones I tried were pretty good. Pavlov's brews a range of styles, from a light and refreshing American Wheat, to a heavy and boozy Russian Imperial Stout. The double IPA hit the mark with me, but will it be hoppy enough for a real IPA connoisseur? No food is made in-house, but food trucks abound. Be careful...come here only once, and you too will be conditioned to return...and I'm not sure if the response can be extinguished. 5 stars for another great Toledo-area microbrewery.

    This was our last stop of our ohio (well this is technically in Michigan) Tagabrew Trail and it was one of our favorites! Everyone was so friendly. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The beer was delicious! I loved the whole concept behind this great spot. We both bought sweatshirts, tagabrews and he got a beer glass. The bartender was happy to tell us the history behind the brewery. The beer was cold and smooth. Very fun place! If you are in the area come and check it out!

Feels very transactional…read more Bathroom: *** (clean) Quality: **** Quantity: ***** Consistency: * (depends on who's working) Selection(s): limited food/many drink options Presentation: **** (well platted) Service: *** (depends on how busy/who is servicing) Price: $$ (Affordable) Ambiance: (Loud/Casual when Busy) Events: They participate in community events, not sure if they have specific events, but they do have an app Attitude: (They have a good spirit, if you get to engage with them) Outside: yes Brunch: No Happy Hour (Specials): food, drink specials (Couldn't find times) just said food specials 15$ on a poster Closed: Unknown Ease of Menu/Details: * (Very Difficult due to being on a wall and random posters for info) Digital Table ordering: Available Overall: Good energy, service could use a little polishing. It's a single sided service approach causes an interaction disconnect that, meanwhile believes in supporting so many things, lacks on customer experience, service and engagement. I'll start with the pros: they have a quick food, quality, menu that supplements their large selection of brews. The only place that has pretty good Meades. The girls here work diligently, they're very approachable, (some) don't know much about the details of the items however they're quick to find them. They're always smiling and even when it's busy, they are very task oriented. That being said, I appreciate the establishment, its aura, and its local support for community and small business. Rosie, and the former police officer, as well as the day shift, and kitchen staff are all great people and seem to enjoy giving service with a smile and are so nice, when you can get to engage with them. Now, the quirks. The menu is on the wall, if you're sitting at the bar, or outside, and your phone is dead, you have to walk up to the bar and then walk the 15 feet wall, around customers to be able to see what's available. It's very cluttered, random and hard to navigate, especially the non-beer options on random sized/font posters. You have to advocate yourself for service, walk up to the bar, because otherwise you might not get attentive service. I waited 15mins between them conversing with other patrons to get a drink. It's very hands-off which, a lot of places are inline with this digital/QR table ordering and walk up service since Covid. However, the feel this place gives: mostly engaging, service with a smile but is inconsistent, giving mixed results on exactly how to take to this place with each person giving a different customer service experience. So, you can see from the photos it's very much walk up service. Which can be difficult for some who have disabilities, sit outside, and other factors and isn't really clear with the layout and expectations it sets with its environment. I've came in several times and have had prompt service at the bar, but on this night, even not busy, was like pulling teeth just to get any follow up/help, silverware and drink refills. I sit at the bar to be able to discuss special needs of food restrictions, etc. but, if it's too busy I probably wouldn't stop in due to having to walk up to the bar to address each need/order and I'm not a fan of table/digital ordering due to food restrictions and menu ordering on digital platforms that are clumsy at times leading to confusion or wrong orders/bill splitting etc. Sometimes food is made well, well portioned, sometimes it seems like they ran out of food and found bits at the bottom of a portion to affix to an order. I've had to ask for plates, napkins and silverware each time I've came here. Should be consistent when bringing food. All and all, I WANT to like this place. It has potential, it supports women forward, small business, local, and service animals. All the things I appreciate and love. They are clean, from the sound of overhearing they have a great membership club (still don't no anything about it), I'll have to wonder away from the bar to read the posters posted around to see if I can get more info. Rosie, who was explaining to to a customer next to me, was very diligent, helpful and engaged with customers very well but, was also stuck to the bar area waiting for people to approach so, its very one sided experience. Being short staffed sucks, it is a today issue. This place really tries, they're strong, female forward and driven. I will continue to try and come back, hopefully this review isn't to harsh, not meant to be, we only know what we know and hopefully this helps shed light in a space others can understand and maybe help. Keep up the hard work and I will keep returning. A similar place is Batch Brewing with the same format that executes this method perfectly. So, it's doable.

As you enter, it seems like more of a farm. They have ample free parking and overflow parking so that's never going to be an issue. As you approach the main building, they have signs about the different outdoor areas and whether they're open or closed based on the weather or events. If you explore the grounds, you'll find concert areas, forested areas, fields, places to play games and be outside. The large patio area also has more bars and an event space. Plus the namesake twin oasts outside that serve as fire pit relaxation areas to drink as well. We went inside, which was also super busy for a weekday. There are lots of campgrounds and other lodgings nearby, so it seems like a regional hangout. We each got flights at the bar, all the bartenders were friendly and efficient, even with the constant flow of customers. The beer quality is solid and prices are reasonable. They have a merchandise area near the restrooms. Indoor has bar seating, tables, and cozier living room like areas with big open windows to enjoy the outside on cold or wet days. If you're a beer fan in the area, this is a must-visit. Even if you just like nice places to eat and enjoy nature, this is also for you.

(Heart) My husband and I were looking forward to having breakfast today but it didn't happen bc of our schedule, so the fact that our lunch experience was excellent, well that was just sweet. Came in on Sunday during lunch. The place had some people enjoying a cold beer and eating at the bar and some were on the other side of the room. After checking the entire place out, decided to eat bear the bar by the window and enjoy the view. We were greeted by a sweet and kind smile from a little child, that just warmed our hearts as it was very genuine and heartfelt. My husband and I each ordered the Tecumseh Brewing Company Burger known as the TBC on a challah bread, accompanied by Caroline's onions, the famous TBC Bear Cheese, candied bacon hot and fresh! Which did not disappoint and it delivered all of my beefy burger cravings and satisfaction. They also come with a good portion of their chips and a dipping cream sauce. We decided to try Poppi cold drink for the first time. We both have been eyeballing them at the grocery store for a while now and boy are we glad we tried them. I even mixed mine. He had the strawberry and I have the ginger lime and inhaled it with half of his Strawberry, you can thank me later (wink).... We had fun talking about life and the great weather approaching so we had a nice meal and nice chatting. Looking forward to the music bands, trivia and out door dining Al Fresco. Thank you TBC for a great day!

We thought it was busy for a Tuesday night in the middle of the Summer, but what do we know as we usually don't go out on Tuesday's... Thanks to continuing to make progress on the 15 cuyd of mulch we had delivered, neither one of us felt much like making dinner as we were a hot, sweaty, drenched mess. As mentioned previously, we scored a couple seats at the bar and Chelsea took care of us. She has a very upbeat, friendly personality and does her best to stop and talk even when the bar is busy (like tonight). We ordered: cobb salad with grilled chicken topped with cumin honey lime vinaigrette; and my surprise meal was the club sandwich. We were both very satisfied as well as satiated after our meals. The only downside I will ever have with Inside The Five - they really cut back on stouts & porters this time of year. I understand the business decision, but I am not in to lighter, foo-foo styles of craft beer. Bring on Student Body Right and Big Fat Boss Baby on a year-round basis and I would be a very happy camper...

I felt the server was sub-par. I wasn't impressed. She was nice but I felt like she had something else going on or something. It wasn't busy so I was kind of surprised she wasn't a little friendlier. Overall though I liked the place and the ambiance. I will say what could make the place even better is having screens for the windows during those sunny hours of the day as our table was in the full sun the whole time which can take away from the experience. Although I like the natural light I don't like being blinded or overheating. Also, the tater tots were delicious but extremely crunchy. Just a heads up to anyone who might be thinking about getting them.
