    Chili crunch shrimp
    Alison B.

    Underrated place. Super friendly staff. Fun trivia and music nights. And AMAZING food. Honestly, beer is great but food is phenomenal and well priced for what you get.

    Decent tap list. Thought the best was the Friesian Dark Lager - 5.3% ABV. Light lager but with good roasty coffee and chocolate notes. There are too many IPAs on the tap list. Hope they balance things out. They also have some bourbon and wine options. Food is the star here. Check out the chicken wings with jerk sauce. They are grilled. Perfect char plus good spiciness but not too hot. Service was excellent.

    I had the jerk shrimp tacos and the guava cider. Both were so good hubby had the Aroha...said it's one of the best IPAs he's had thus far. Nice spot at the end of a shopping center. Friendly staff. The chef came out just to chat. Had some laughs with the bartenders. Great place would definitely go back.

    I really really wanted to like this place, so I'm a little bummed out. Ragz and I stopped by to check it out on Saturday afternoon. They had live music and it was def busy. The seating downstairs seems a little odd, especially the outdoor place. It felt like people were piling up in one spot without enough space to truly hang out, while the rest of the area seemed empty almost - don't give the true brewery feel unfortunately. We headed upstairs because we were hungry. I do think their beer selection is decent and the beer itself was good. Our bartender, Savannah was also sweet. The food is where I was sorely disappointed. Their menu looks a lot more fun than the food actually was. I started with the feta and watermelon salad which looks nothing like the photo on their menu. It was fine, a little bland in my opinion. I did appreciate the 2 different colors for my watermelon. Ragz really liked the chips though, thick cut but still crispy. We had to ask for ketchup, I feel like these should have an accompanying sauce. The pork belly was okay acc to Ragz, he didn't finish the whole thing because it felt too fatty, but bland at the sam time. The wings were totally disappointing honestly - the butter chicken sauce was a watered down pansy version of what it could be - I think these had potential to be amazing, but unfortunately felt flat. It almost felt like they were trying to Americanize the sauce and took it too far in my opinion. The bhel was also sad - big pile up of just the mix, not seasoned well and not sauced well either. Overall disappointing meal. I realize this is a brewery, and they focus on beer ( which is decent from what we tried). However, I was just so excited about their menu options! We might swing by again one of these days to try more food and just chill in the evening. I'd definitely like to give them another chance.

    Impressive Menu

    This is quite the place Right off Route 7. The staff was so friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. It was trivia night, so it was busy, but again the service did not skip a beat. I would recommend this place for friends, families, or just come hang out at the bar

    A great new addition to Leesburg in my opinion. It has a very unique blend of food options that you typically don't get at breweries. As well as conversations with the head of the kitchen was great for inside knowledge that about 90% of the kitchen food is from scratch and made fresh every morning. The overall space is great with the indoor and outdoor seating (For now as the weather is still nice). The staff were friendly and great to converse with! Very personable.

    Inside first level

    Open day! One of the best beers for an opening I've been to. Beers were good. Available full bar with ciders and wine. Brewery from House 6 brewery. Food. Nice menu. Priced fairly. Food is good. Ask if the sauce for your item isn't listed, they will swap. Typical minor issue with an opening day. But all good. This may become a regular occurrence. Can't wait till they get settled.

Very family friendly, plenty of place to run around and the food comes out quick (no specific kids menu but the grilled cheese was a huge hit). The Director of Operations, Kat, was lovely, came by our table to chat and shared a little more about the makers market they were hosting and some of the special events (Monday bingo night!!) they have going on. The food was not only quick but also delicious -- I will be dreaming about the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls tonight. My uncle was in the mood for a burger which wasn't on the brewery menu but they did have at a food truck outside!! Not a beer girl but I tried one and it was great (I think called the one sip wonder). TVs and lively atmosphere, could've spent the whole day here!!

When we arrived there was no seating, which was strange seeing as we paid for seats. There was a second tent which had its own offerings but not nearly as festive as the larger area and it was quite cold inside. The food was fine but ironically the beers were really average. I was surprised that they lacked a lot of depth. The overall beverage operation was really disorganized and almost everything lacked signage. I thought one cooler was water but it was hot cocoa. Not sure how anyone would know? Also there was no milk next to the coffee station. I felt like I had to ask wait staff for everything- I.e. where's the juice? Are there straws? The whole operation was odd because it seemed like there was a lot of staff but no one was doing much in particular. I can only assume this is a management issue. The event just lacked a lot of finesse that would make me hesitate returning to the venue.

    After visiting a two other VA/MD breweries, my expectations were really low on my quest for some…read moregood craft beer. Ocelot felt like craft beer the moment we walked in. Dark woods, colored lights stickers, TV playing, music going and the vats for brewing. Walked up and took a seat at the empty bar, arriving minutes after they opened on a Monday. Looked at the tap menu, as well as can for sale. My sister ordered a lemon lime cider and I decided on a Polvo Pils. After that trip to Prague, I will always search out a good pilsner. Ocelot had a wonderful pilsner, served properly. I followed this up with Little Black Book. Can you ever go wrong with a nitro tap beer? The answer is no. So, after two rounds, I was impressed with the beer, definitely better than what I had tasted the previous days. The beertender was attentive, the decor was somewhat eclectic, lots of colored lights strung from the ceiling. Barrels against the wall, as the main beer hall opened up to the production side of the establishment. The pinball room was awesome, wall to wall pinball machines, light flashing, looked like it would really be a happening place at quitting time. All in all it was the best beer experience I had while visiting. Would recommend a stop if you don't want to battle traffic out of IAD at the wrong time of day.

Beers were good but in my opinion, I wish they had more variety and allowed 5-6 oz pours. We didn't see any food but saw they sometimes have food trucks there so that's good.

The establishment is a brewery so I feel that they must be rated on their main product - beer - and it was not great. I'd give their beer 3 stars, and all the people I was there with agree it would not prompt us to come back for the beer alone. Food - they have a fairly extensive list of food items prepared in the kitchen next door. We got the white chicken pizza, brisket quesadilla and chicken rolls with a fun Indian flavor twist. The collective favorite were the quesadillas! I'd say the food was 4/5 - I wouldn't come back for the food alone but my in-laws said they would. Ambiance - the interior of the brewery didn't quite feel like a brewery? Felt a little sterile / empty - we were the only people there for over an hour around 3 on a Friday afternoon. The redeeming qualities are really nice staff members - very attentive, like raising the volume in the TV when they noticed we were watching. The views from outside are also really pretty looking out at the river, and would be a nice spot in the summer. Overall; the beer's just not there but their food and views were top notch.

    We were very interested in trying this brewery. White's Ferry has been on Facebook and TikTok so…read morewe thought why not....well the only good thing about the brewery was the view. When we arrived there as a sign that read "all day happy hour M-F, 50% off all pints." When asked the guy at the bar said it was only for weekdays not weekends. Mind you we came on a Friday. The beers were sub par, nothing really tasted good. Honestly it all tasted the same. We also ordered food which I think was overpriced. $60 for three burgers and jalapeño poppers. I was also told that the flight, which was $20 for 6 5oz pours was $20.50 would be discounted by 1/2; however the bill did not reflect this. I was informed that it would come off the food but when we got the total there was not itemized list, probably because to hide how much tip was already included. When I went to pay the tab, I was informed that gratuity was already included! I'm not a fan of that at all. I should be able to decide how much to tip. Will not be going back, sorry not good. If you're trying to decide, hit up Harvest Gap Brewery instead.
