    Sass-squash pizza

    WE LOVE RAPIDS BREWERY!!! It's our first stop on our way up to my boyfriend's parent's place in Grand Rapids! Our most recent trip, we tried the Sass-squash pizza and when I tell you I have not stopped thinking about this pizza since then I am not kidding! It was a perfect balance of flavors and so unique! Service is always amazing (they gave me a free beer for missing my fry order on first try) and I was so grateful. Additionally, we happened to stumble upon the community band performance night when we were there and it was a packed house and great to meet some of the band members and their family! Make the stop! Their food is incredible, beer is great and they always have something fun going on for entertainment.

    Walking in this place felt like a community gathering place, the atmosphere was warm and the staff was kind. The menu is extensive with so many delicious options, however we felt like things just missed the mark a bit, for example; the caprese pizza was very oily, and the chicken sandwich was too dry. Small things that overall would not deter us from going back.

    Came here for the pizza and I'm a NY pizza snob. This isn't NY style but it is extremely good. The servers at the bar were very polite and helpful. Great place to listen to a band outside. I didn't stay inside but looks like a cool place to eat and hang out. I'm not a big fan of breweries because people seam like snobs but this place has everything going for itself. I highly recommend this place. Wish you were in the Twin Cities. This place is a gem.

    Love this brewery! We have a cabin about 30 minutes away and we definitely will be coming back! The beer was great and the pizza was to die for! We ordered the Italian Stallion and ate it ALL. Service was great and the staff was super friendly. Great place to go to with friends or family.

    Excellent food - Smash burger was juicy and delicious; Fire roasted carrots with a fantastic sauce; Thai noodles with mushrooms were tasty and spicy; Pig Wings were tender and so tasty with a sweet Gochujang sauce! Very good cocktail with bourbon, berry syrup, lemon, mint and club soda. Service good and helpful. Sat outdoors and enjoyed the entertainment--a vocalist and guitarist.

    Stopped in for a quick nightcap before heading back to Sugar Lake Lodge. I really liked the vibe of the place. The picnic area, although too chilly to enjoy on our visit, looked like a great place to soak up some summer sun. They had the fire pit going when we arrived which ended up being a smoke break location for bar patrons. I chose the imperial stout. Woo, was that potent. Their Pilsner wasn't pouring the way they wanted so they suggested another option. Husband had the cream ale. The entertainment for the night was music bingo. They play random snippets of music and you try to full your card. We were too late to play but the other patrons looked like they were having a great time. Also looked like there was a private party room in the back. Nice visit.

    Was lucky enough to go on a Wednesday when they had $2 off whiskey pours. The $24 old fashion dropped down to $22.

    As a vegetarian/pescatarian, it can be very challenging to find restaurants outside the twin cities…read moreMetropolitan area. Even the ones I find usually have few choices to eat from and the food isn't that good. That's why I absolutely loved my visit to block North. It's something that could've been located in my own neighborhood in Saint Paul. Starting with the beer, they have an excellent selection of styles. I chose the Saison, which is far less common in Minnesota breweries than I would like. It was excellent. For lunch, I chose the ratatouille and added shrimp. They were served with the vegetable of the day, green beans. The serving size was enormous which can also be inversely related to quality, but not here. The green beans were cooked and seasoned to perfection. The ratatouille was lovely with chunks of eggplant and zucchini plus a mushroom on the side. This meal was just delightful. I was by myself, so I sat out the bar. The bartender was friendly, but not overbearing. There were many other items on the menu I would've loved to have tried. I will definitely stop here again in the future.

    Tried their elk burger and it was phenomenal! My friends tried their Philly steak sandwich and…read moresteak poutine and gotta say the poutine was the best over ever had. Everything was delicious, and I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area! Great service and loved the vibes inside!
