Initially, I thought the sign was for a Mediterranean place like the many other delicious spots off of University, but I wasn't upset when I looked into it and found it was a brewery! Tried 3 beers between the two of us. My partner loved the Bower amber so much he stuck with it. I tried the Kilted Yoga red ale, and the Five Bobs vanilla porter. All three were very well balanced and true to their style! As the sun sets it's directly on the patio, so bring sunglasses. Service was pleasant! Definitely a few regulars. The space inside is neat, lots of little rooms so if you want your own space you can find one! Board games. Parking lot.

I got a steak which came with grilled asparagus and mashed potatoes. The steak was pretty good quality, and was also seasoned very well. It also had a little bit of grill flavor. The mashed potatoes were a good consistency - creamy but also a little bit of potato texture. The grilled asparagus was fresh and grilled the perfect amount. They were grilled so that they were very smokey but still nice and crunchy. Overall this place is really solid - the service is polite and fast, and the food is actually decent.

The day we went they had brunch, it wasn't too busy. You could definitely tell it was the community spot, everyone knew each other and it was genuinely good vibes. At the time we went (was a bit ago), it took a while for the waitress to get to us, as they were also the bartender. We did order drinks as well as split the chicken biscuit sandwich which came with fruit. Overall the sandwich was good. I'd definitely like to check out more of the menu. Drinks were good a well. The restaurant overall is nice, casual/classy vibes. They do have a parking lot & street parking.

We ordered a meal that came with potatoes steak bites and green beans (photo not included) Once it came we had to call them back and inquire as there were no green beans on the plate. It was brought out. 5 green beans. 5. That was just wild to us. I got the fish and spaghetti. That was a new experience. I haven't had fried salmon before. I did think it was fried well and the spaghetti had flavor. I did miss some type of veggie on the meal though.

On a Friday night there was $10 cover. The music was a mix of Afro and classic 80's and 90's. There are some pretty decent food options. One downside is some of the staff do not speak English so best to point or do what I did and show photos of what I wanted on my phone. Also I would like to see other people besides the African American community support this business. Also Free Parking!!!

Chicken only slightly warm & a bit rubbery; mushrooms had to be searched for to consider appealing. So few I did not taste! Paid extra for a side of onion rings only to be disappointed as not even warm. We waited more than usually amount of time to have our food so did not want to ask for a replacement. Potato & ham soup was satisfyingly hot. Ice cold glass served with our beer choice was great on a hot humid day. As always the environment is a solid old school bar with plenty of neon signs and wood paneling.

It would have been perfect to stop there. She then made a comment about immigrants and that all our welcomed. While I understand she was trying to to make a point it was not very sensitive to people who lost loved ones as a result of immigrants who were not deported after committing crimes and then ending up killing someone. Out of respect for the owner I did not ask her in front of all there whether she thinks the guy who killed the college student in Illinois last week would be welcomed. Or the guy who cut the innocent women's throat on public transportation last year. Would he be welcomed? My problem with statements Iike the one she made - either from the right or the left - is the this topic is much more nuanced. It is also very disrespectful to the families who have lost loves ones. I found it in very poor taste just like I would have if someone said up front that ALL immigrants should be deported. Very disappointing.

The dining room was uncomfortably full and the waitstaff struggled to get between tables. Most of the food was wonderful, and everything came out hot. The Caesar salad was fresh, and prime rib cooked perfectly. The asparagus (seasonal vegetable) were practically raw. I wish they were cooked for a few more minutes. The service was a bit of a miss. While our waitress was kind, we waited 25 minutes for water and never received the soda we ordered. She asked 4 tables if they had ordered a bread basket, clearly confused.

So we found a booth and the waitress brought over 2 menus I said there will be a 3rd joining, he is in restroom, could we get another menu. She never did bring one we just shared, Friend ordered burger and fries, I had soup and fiancé had burger and tots, the fries orderer then said, wait can we get a basket of cheese curds, she added them to the order then returned with our drinks. About 15 minutes later we asked where the cheese curds were and her response was "oh we bring all the food out at once" I said really? Even appetizers? Very odd, sure enough all the food with our appetizers get delivered and I said how long do you think it will take her to bring us silverware and napkins? Well she never did, I finally walked up to the bar and asked for them. The cheese curds were mediocre, maybe would have been better if served hot and as an app, my fiancé's tator tots were barely luke warm as well. My soup was a great! Warm and flavorful, I needed to use the restroom, did not bring my phone with and after the mess I saw, thought I need to go back again to snap some pics, this was such a mess and it was 6 hours after the football game had ended, there was enough employees standing around to pick up the restroom, seriously did not one single waitress use that bathroom since the game was over? Nobody cares is the truth, there were pull tabs everywhere on the floor throughout the place. I am so glad we as customers do not have access to the kitchen I am sure it would scare me what may be behind closed doors if what is out in the open is so bad, Nobody cares about this place anymore, so sad and disappointing and we had a friend from out of state with us, what an embarrassment.

Pour is in a little strip mall. They have added black curtains and some cozy seating areas from when we were here last. Nice updates. Our waitress was very accomdating until she got busy then we felt we were forgotten. We ordered the Drunken shrimp , bread with olive oil and the avocado toast to start with. The drunken shrimp is just as good as we remember the saffron sauce is sooooo good! but there were 3 of us sharing the apps and it only came with 2 crostini's we asked for a 3rd so we could each have one but little did we know that one very small skinny piece of bread had a $1.00 charge to it. The steak bites with their homemade blue cheese sauce was to die for melt in your mouth!! I even asked if we could buy some of the blue cheese sauce, she said no but that she would bring us another dish of it but she never did. My girlfriend ordered a cranberry mule drink, she was charged an extra $1.00 for the cranberry. We also ordered the goat cheese with sauces that were very delicious with an ample amount of crackers. We got the chocolate Ganache cake to share for dessert. But............ the waitress never took our empty dirty plates but showed up with the dessert with the mess on table, I asked for extra clean plates but she never brought them. Everything we ordered was very delicious, but as the night progressed our service got worse, we asked for the bill but she never came back to get our payment and we had questions my girlfriend walked it up to the bartender with our payments. 2 of us were paying cash and one a credit card and we were charged an extra fee of $5.18 for her using a credit card. That is when we saw the $1.00 charge for 1 piece 3/8" bread and the $1.00 for cranberry mule. Talk about nickel and diming. We would love to go back but unsure if I can get past some of these things. Also, now looking at the bill even closer, none of us had a mimosa and we were charged $8.95 for one.How did we miss that? All added up we paid $16.00 more than we should have. CRAZY!! Sadly, Don't know if I'll be back.

The creme brûlée wasn't the best but it was good. Service was great. I think our waiter was Steve/Stephen? and he was very attentive and friendly.
