    We stopped for lunch. The restaurant was quiet enough to hold a table conversation. Our server, Lucy B, was pleasant and provided great table service. They have a nice menu selection, including some Filipino inspired dishes, drinks and desserts. We were satisfied with all of our choices. Everything was tasty and served at the right temperatures. This restaurant and bar would definitely be worth a return visit.

    Great service and great food and beer! Had the Tofu Katsu, definitely will be coming back again for that. So crispy and the curry was delicious. Cute inside and mural outside.

    Korean-style chicken wings perfectly cooked with excellent flavor.

    Weekday lunch with my wife and her mother. Great food, service and atmosphere. Oh, and the brews are amazing! Bought a four-pack for home that was my favorite (https://untappd.com/b/phase-three-brewing-day-drift-blood-orange-calamansi/6281278). Everyone left happy.

    When a local brewery levels up into a full dining experience, Phase Three Brewing Company in Elmhurst absolutely delivers. I've been to their smaller taproom in Lake Zurich, so I knew the beer was good--but the Elmhurst location is a whole different animal. It's a proper brewery-restaurant hybrid with real energy. We went on a Friday night, and while parking can get tight since it's shared with nearby spots, there's plenty available if you're willing to loop around a bit. You can grab a table, but sitting at the bar is the move. It's perfect for working through tasters and chatting with the staff. Beer * Exceptional stouts, porters, and barleywines--rich, complex, and clearly a specialty * Collaborations (including with Old Irving) are impressive * IPAs lean more West Coast--resiny and hop-forward; less hazy/soft, more bold and bitter * Overall: high-quality brewing across styles Food * Pork Lumpia - spot on; crisp, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a Filipino classic * French Onion Smash Burger - standout; caramelized onion flavor woven throughout with melted cheese and perfectly cooked patties. Absolute hit with fries What surprised me most was the kitchen. This isn't "brewpub food." It's thoughtfully executed American fare mixed with strong Asian/Filipino influences that actually hold up. Vibe * Lively but not chaotic * Great for conversation, groups, or casual date nights * Easygoing atmosphere without sacrificing quality Verdict Phase Three Elmhurst nails the full package: serious beer program, legitimately good food, and a comfortable, well-run space. It's the kind of spot you can settle into for hours without feeling rushed. Easy five stars.

    Today, we weee driving around and stumbled across P3 Brewing company. Initially, the place looks trendy and pleasant. We entered and were immediately sat by the friendly hostess and given menus and water. After about 5 minutes our server came by. This is where the whole experience went south. She greeted us, and we asked her what her favorites were on the menu. She literally refused to give recommendations because she kept awkwardly hiding behind.... Everyone has their own tastes. We ask this almost every new restaurant we go to and get the server recommendations. After awhile, I decided on their original smashburger with no cheese and subbed salad for the fries. My wife got the Longanisa Chopped Cheese and fries. She also went with the P3 Japanese Rice Lager. My burger was salty and greasy, but feasted ok. They literally put a trace of their "spicy P3 sauce" on it, but it was basically a dry burger. The salad was outstanding and vinaigrette dressing was fantastic. Her Longanisa tasted good but the sauce on the sandwich was very watery and was literally glowing off the back end of the sandwich. Very weird. The Rice Lager didn't taste good at all. To me, it tasted like Old Style. I'm not exaggerating. When it came time to settle the check, we told the server that we signed up for the rewards and had small credit we wanted to apply. She told us oh, it will come off automatically when you pay your check. It made no sense. So I gave my credit card, and the bill got paid... no discount applied. I mentioned it to her but told her don't worry about it. We can use it next time. She argued with us and insisted she go figure out why it didn't apply. After telling her twice don't worry about it came more about her wanting to know than helping us. We just walked out and went home. I was only asked for a refill once, at the end of the meal, was almost out of drink half the lunch. The server just was not listening to the customer. It's not hard to figure out why discount wouldn't automatically apply to the bill when the website and the point of purchase are 2 separate formats. Overall the food was ok, 3.5 stars, the service... 1 star. Your money and time can be spent better elsewhere.

    My husband and I came on a date night, we sat outside and enjoyed the last of the nice weather. The host sat us and shortly after our server came around asking about drinks. I got the fruit beer and it was excellent flavor. My husband did 4 tastings. We got the garlicky cheese curds, Cobb salad and Original smashburger. The smash burgers were so tender they fell apart in your mouth. The cob salad was refreshing. I love trying foods that are unique and they did a very good job on every dish. Well done Phase Three. Would return!

    The food was so good here! We came in to try out a few beers and grab dinner, and I was very happy with the food. The mushroom risotto was super creamy and full of flavor- I would definitely order it again! The pretzel seemed a little stale so I wasn't very into that dish but it may have just been fluke from sitting out too long before being delivered. The staff is really friendly and the bartenders are helpful when picking out beers to try! The whole restaurant is set up really nicely with a front room and back bar area. Doesn't feel like a typical brewery!

    Second time here. Both times quick and friendly service. Food is way better than you deserve for a brewery and the beer selection has a nice spread of styles. The pepper and egg sandwich should be sold in a cart in front of that place with people lined up like Maxwell st. It's that good. Top 5 in the west burbs.

    Our party of 3 had a nice pub dinner and catchup session here.  I'll go with 4.49 stars with the only modest knock that the place is a bit on the pricey side.  It wasn't too busy at 5:30pm on a Tuesday night, and that was nice, but it did get more boisterous and crowded as Trivia Night started at about 7pm. I did personally like that their beer menu was heavy on the IPA selections and I saw 10 of them (!) on their online menu and ended up having 3 delicious IPA's during our outing.  Each went for $8.50 for a 16 oz serving. I personally tried their: - Snow Pants hazy IPA, 7.9% ABV - F-Stop IPA, 7.5% ABV - Trio of Stars hazy IPA, 7.7% ABV RJ was our friendly and knowledgeable server, and I actually went with his suggestions on all 3 IPA's and I really enjoyed every one of them.  Thank you RJ! For food, I had the following and as usual we split the appetizers: - Bavarian pretzels, $7 Happy Hour 1/2 price - Garlicky cheese curds, $7 Happy Hour 1/2 price - OG burger with fries, $18 One colleague also had an OG burger and another had the Smoky Ghost burger and he said it was quite spicy.  I enjoyed my greasy and delicious OG burger with my beers. The pre-tip bill per person was $47.44.  The price of a beer and burger outing keeps going up on us, but they are always fun and delicious and so be it.  This place is a great venue for such.  Their food menu has some Filipino influences, but we didn't go for any of those dishes.  Their beer quality is top notch and I wouldn't be surprised if I liked all of their beers.  My colleagues also really enjoyed their Proper Trollied English malt blend (3.9% ABV and $6.50 for 20 oz).  They also have convenient parking off to the side and to the rear of the restaurant.  Great pub, and thank you!

    Nice brewery option in Elmhurst with good beer selection and even better food which is not typical of all breweries. We tried the parmesan truffle fries and longanisa egg rolls for starters, and a burger and banh mi for mains. Service was friendly and the place filled up quickly for lunch.

    Pork Lumpia
    Crystal Z.

    Ambiance - great location, offers parking behind the restaurant, casual spot for lunch/dinner, able to accommodate big groups Service - exceptional, our waiter was polite, check on us often and offered us some recs Food - pork lumpia was extra crispy, steak was tender, truffle fries were amazing

    Pork lumpia
    Ernie H.

    The honey butter fries are excellent. That came with the tocino bhan mi, a large portion. The marinated sweet meat is very similar to the Vietnamese one with a slight Filipino twist recommended. The pork lumpia is standard fare meaning it's good. I'm Filipino it has my seal of approval. This is a brewery and they have a lot of those - we just didn't have one tonight.

They always have a crowd and that's expected because there's not many other great places besides this. A lot of beers to choose from. There's a pretty great variety and they always rotate. Beers are the main thing of course. It's got a pretty surprising amount to choose from. There's a lot of these on tap. More in cans. Pretty great variety. A lot are IPAs but there's a few others. It's about $8 a pint. Kind of a lot but they make smaller batches of these. Best one we had of these was the Hazy In The Name Of. This is a New England Hazy IPA, a classic style. Made with citrone and nectaron hops. There's notes of citrus, lime, passionfruit, and peach. Has a few things to munch on. It's about $7 for the Knotty Pretzels. Comes in a big bag. These are a great combination and big enough for sharing. For sure there's lots of great beers. It's actually open daily which is especially rare for a brewery to be honest. They sometimes have food trucks.

While I'd liked the beers I'd been able to try in the past, it was nice to see their taproom. It's basically 2 halves, with the bar on one side, then a more cozy area with lounge chairs and tables and high tops on the other. There are TVs on both sides, so you'll be able to watch whatever game is on no matter which side you sit. It was also nice to see they had the Chicago Sports Network channel, the new channel for Bulls/Sox/Hawks games, as a lot of places/people don't have it. They had quite a big tap list, I tried 4 throughout the night-2 week vacation, Gold as Hell, Movies on Mars, Black Eclipse. All good, the first 2 were definitely my favorites. They sell a few snack items, or you can bring food in. Bartender seemed like a really cool guy. No real street parking, but there's a big shared lot in back with plenty of space. Very glad I finally made the trip out here, and would happily come back when there's some new beers on tap.

I would like to return and try the cranberry sour and German, dry pilsner. Perhaps after "Dry January!" (Hello Mocktails). I did not order any food but I do plan to return and would like to try some of their menu items. I enjoyed sitting at the bar with others and our server was delightful. I have also had their wheat beers which are tasty. Inside the brewery there is a cozy feel and the singing cook in the kitchen was fun to listen to, as he had a nice voice. Check out their fun fan merch for sale too. Happy "Brew Year" all!
