**Fill's Growlers: A Beer Paradise With a Side of Delicious Irony**…read more Imagine stepping into a bar so legendary that angels weep with joy at the mere mention of its name. That's **Fill's Growlers**, a haven of hops, a sanctuary of suds, and quite possibly the greatest place to ever grace Enumclaw with its presence. First, let's talk **beer selection**--because this place isn't just a bar, it's a beer wonderland. They have everything from crisp, floral IPAs that taste like liquid gold to stouts so rich and velvety they could double as dessert. Want something experimental? They've got sours that tingle the taste buds and barrel-aged beauties that are smoother than a jazz sax solo. If variety is the spice of life, Fill's Growlers is practically a Michelin-starred spice rack. And the **service**? Magnificent. Nay, transcendent. The bartenders at Fill's are like beer-slinging philosophers, ready to recommend the perfect pint with the wisdom of sages. They are warm, welcoming, and can recall your last order with a precision that borders on supernatural. You'll leave feeling like you just reunited with a long-lost friend--except this friend hands you incredible beer instead of awkward childhood nostalgia. But, oh--the irony. **The deepest, most delicious irony.** For a place called *Fill's Growlers*, one would assume an endless loop of Phil Collins ballads serenading patrons, maybe even a bartender letting out a primal, satisfying growl as he slides your pint across the bar. But no. **No Phil. No growling.** The owner has made it **very clear** that while their growlers will indeed be filled, they will never, under any circumstances, fill your ears with the smooth crooning of "In the Air Tonight." Nor will the bartender indulge your request for a friendly snarl. This is a principled establishment, standing firm against the tyranny of *predictability*. So raise your glass, embrace the irony, and bask in the glory that is **Fill's Growlers**--where the beer flows like poetry, the service rivals royalty, and Phil Collins remains forever uninvited. **Five stars. Ten stars. Infinite stars.** Now, do you think they'd make an exception for *Genesis*? Or is that pushing it?

The space is vast with lots of space to sit and spread out. They don't serve food, so our dog friendly but there is always a burger food truck parked outside and you can bring outside food in. A lot of groups and families hang out here because it's a very welcoming space. Price is pretty good. $5-$6 for a 10 oz and $7-8 for a pint. They also have a flight that lets you try five beers. Parking is easy and free outside or across the street at the library or in the lot towards the center of downtown Enumclaw I had a good time here and am looking forward to returning to try more beers.

We frequent Rainier Growlers on the weekend and enjoy the variety of people who seem to hang out here. There is always a few delicious options to drink and there is easy access to Pizza as Fat Zach's is in the same parking lot. We have seen babies, kids, and dogs be welcome here. It is a good place to spend a couple of hours, especially if it is rainy outside! The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about what is on tap or available in their fridges. I do not drink beer and am always able to find a local cider to enjoy if I am feeling like a beverage. My 11 year old loves their rootbeer. Definitely recommend Rainier for a fun place to hang out with others!

The guy working the bar was attentive and got us our food from Hangry Bird next door. The stout was not to my taste. There was nothing wrong with it, but I wanted some darker, toastier notes and less chocolate, but the Mexican ale hit it. Well made, and the lighter sweetness hit the spot with the tacos from next door. I don't know if it was brewed with corn, as many Mexican beers are but it tasted that way with smooth, sweetness that didn't bite. Unfortunately, I only got a shot with my stout.

Has around 6 taps and you can see the brewing operation just behind the servicing that is really cool six 250-liter (66 gallons) serving tanks. As for the beer they have a cross section of typical brews from a Mexican lager, Kolsch, Red Ale and a few signature beers. We tasted 5 of the beers and all were solid and freshly brewed. There was a menu and spotted some fried rice with a fried egg on top that we had to order since my wife is from Japan. The food passed her test and beer and atmosphere was A++. There's a few breweries, wine bars and distilleries within walking distance so definitely try a few of them when visiting Enumclaw.

It is hard to find in season let alone in March. I was floored to see it on the menu so I had to have it. I was not disappointed. I ordered a PB & J - it just sounded good. Seriously where can you get a $5 sandwich WITH chips? And then the pumpkin was phenomenal. The Hazy was equally delicious. The staff was kind of like Cheers, it's a local spot and regulars sit at tables playing cards and board games. The owner sat at the bar chatting with the locals. There's a shelf that has numbered ceramic mugs-it appears when you frequent the Acorn you get your own personal mug. The sandwiches are hand made at the bar in front of guests but a sweet bartender. I'm just passing through - and if you find yourself passing through? STOP

The beers on offer vary from clean and crisp pilsners and Kölsch to deep and flavorful stouts and IPAs. My favorite things are that they are dog friendly, let you bring in you own food, and have really good tasting beer blends that add extra flavor and options. They also serve beer, have three TVs that are playing the most popular games, and often partner with the community to host events like book club meetups, paint notes, fundraisers, and parties. For those not beer inclined, they have 2-3 wines, local ciders, and house-made seltzers. They are kid friendly too and have various board games to play to keep entertained. Really they have everything to make you feel right at home.

Over by the bar it's a little bit tight to be able to order if there are multiple people inside there. I did enjoy having to be able to sit down and kinda relax while having a beer. I ordered their off Center healthwise in with her raspberry kind of thing. It was absolutely delicious. I would definitely order that again. The parking is in front of someone's house which felt a little unusual. It was raining and there was quite a lot of big puddles to navigate to get to the garage door. I gave it four stars because I think there is some places to improve. The tables that you sat at feel little sticky, even after they were cleaned. Maybe a better way to advertise their merchandise. It was over in the corner. I only order one beer in that beer is killer so I think their beer is on point for the one I ordered.

I found them on Yelp and wanted to try them because of how cozy the set up looked, and loved that they have flights! Turns out it was even cozier than I anticipated, because this brewery is literally in someone's garage, and attached to their house. Literally SO COOL. They have the ultimate set up. Covered patio seating outside (lots of it), a cool bar in the garage, and they even have board games, blankets, and more to make sure you have a great time here. The woman who was bartending the day we were there was really nice and all the other guests were cool too. Another bonus for us is Off Camber is kid-friendly, so our baby tagged along with us. I loved their hazy IPA and also their Rubicon IPA. Both were super solid and I'd definitely get them again. We'll definitely be back and if you haven't been yet, you should definitely pay them a visit! Their hours are super limited, but it's worth checking out.

This is the "good 'ol boys" brewery in town…read more And I say that with 100% positivity. You'll feel like you're at a big rowdy backyard cookout (don't you DARE call it a BBQ unless yer smokin' meats) that you just stumbled into. The man running the taps, who I can only assume is the owner, is boisterous, friendly, and ON TOP OF THINGS. He'll ask you what you normally drink, give you some samples, and hook you up with the right beer. I tried to give him a card and he just said "just let me know how many you've had before you leave, I trust you!". You really feel like you're at some sort of family get together. Oh, and the views of Rainier from the patio are stellar! Unlike almost all other breweries in the PacNW, this one is not stocked chock full of insufferable, apathetic, hipster and post-hipster types. The crowd here is largely blue collar: truckers and farmers, Carhart and coveralls, construction workers and men-at-work signs. Which, again, is refreshing for a brewery. Beer is for everyone, not just beardos at coffeeshops with macbook pros that "work in tech". My only qualm is that I feel like the beer is just OK. It wasn't bad or anything, but it also didn't blow me away. Most of the beers were a little too much on the sweet and malty side (even the IPA) for what I usually like to drink. (which is stuff that is really pale, dry, and bright) The irony of my sounding like one of those disaffected beer bro stereotypes I just criticized earlier in the review is not lost on me though so...take what I say with a grain of malted grain.

This was one of two really good breweries I visited in Buckley. Like a lot of breweries I've been…read moreto, Elk Head is tucked away in a industrial/work shop location, just off the main highway running through town. I don't know if it's there all the time, but when I stopped in, there's a Mexican food truck in the front parking lot. Once you've seen it it not hard to miss, as it's the only shop with all the doors wide open and a good sized covered patio area. Walking through the entrance, the decor stands out right away, growler jugs, hanging from the ceiling from breweries from all over the country, along with a lot of cool animal wood sculptures and memorabilia for honoring Veterans and history. I believe the bar tender was also the owner or one of them? Very friendly and helpful with the selections. Taking time to answer questions, even on a surprisingly busy Thursday afternoon. Lots of seating throughout the inside and on the patio area. They specialize in unfiltered brews, which I like, as it gives a full flavor to most beers you may not get, if they're over filtered, another one of those balancing acts that those workers of brewing magic deal with. I started off with a Amber lager, full tasting with the crispness of a lager, a flavorful change from the usual amber ales. The place had a cool old dudes vibes due to all the memorabilia and the old van in the shop, but definitely wasn't just an old dudes place, as a few of the younger crowd was enjoying a brew while working remote. Plan on a return trip on a weekend to check out the weekend vibe, try the food truck, and more of their tasty unfiltered beers. I also tried their Red Ale, which was also robustly flavored and went down smoothly. Gotta love those reds! A fun stop while passing through or coming back from some of the beautiful hikes in the area. Definitely have their own style and niche well done. Happy Yelping and Cheers!

While waiting, I noticed two…read morecustomers who arrived about five minutes after me were served and left about seven minutes before I even received my to-go order. When I finally got my food and returned home, I found that my order was incorrect -- despite requesting extra mayo, it was not added. I called the store to explain the situation and simply asked for a refund. Instead of addressing this straightforward request, the shift manager (Lily) asked me to bring the sandwich back to the store to "verify" it. I found this to be unreasonable and disrespectful -- as if I would go out of my way to falsely claim a missing condiment. While still on the call, I could hear Lily and her coworkers laughing in the background. She then claimed she didn't know how to process a refund because the "refund button wouldn't work." To make matters worse, she said she could "write my name down and let the manager know tomorrow," but there was no sincerity in her voice and no confidence that anything would actually be handled. It felt like a brush-off that would be forgotten -- a reflection of her inept ability to do her job and deliver basic customer service. Ultimately, I had to drive back to the store in person, which was entirely avoidable if my concern had been handled properly over the phone.

Our sandwiches are always made correctly and are delicious…read more The customer service is hit and miss. Sometimes, we get the friendliest service. Other times, I feel like I'm inconveniencing them. I had one really bad experience that was a one-off, so I don't want to put them on blast for that. I feel like this is really common for foodservice in Bonney Lake; it's just hard to find a place that always gives good customer service. I would say on average, this Jersey Mike's does a fine job.
