    Pizza name 'Friends of mine' WOW!!
    Ramsey S.

    Driving by and saw this place, Wow was not expecting a Brick oven Pizza that was Just WOW like it's a must to Order . Friends of mine was the pizza name. Pizza flavors were perfect. Oysters were also Fantastic Baked and raw were fabulous. Service was Fantastic by Owner and Daughter. Beers were also Great. Highly recommend this Brewery and will be coming back. Great Ambiance and decor.

    Went to Runabout Brewing a few days ago. This used to be Gatlin Hall, and it's been completely revamped and remade. Both the inside and outside are totally different now. Gatlin Hall felt more like a semi food court before, but Runabout has turned it into a full brewery with their own kitchen. One thing worth noting: if you remember Gatlin Hall as being very kid-game-friendly, this is not really that same environment anymore. Not a bad thing at all, just something to be aware of depending on what you're looking for and remember if you went before. Kids are welcome though. The beer selection is solid. I had the Mexican Lager and it was crisp and really easy to drink. I didn't get a full entrée, but I did have the hummus platter and it was really good. The bartender and waitress provided good service as well. Overall, great update to the space, good beer and good food

    We have been here before for drinks but decided we would have our annual Easter brunch here. The hostess was very friendly from the minute we walked in and although we were 30 minutes early for our reservation, she seated us very quickly. It's a super chill place that is not too noisy yet not too quiet, you can tell people are having a great time. The food was delicious , especially the baked oysters which flew off the table so there is no picture . Our one suggestion or wish was that they had some brunch drink specials like unlimited mimosa or a mimosa flight or bucket.

    I'm full of more mixed up feelings than a drink writing this review as parts here were really good and parts were really bad and then parts just got interesting... So we came here one random cold night and it was literally just us as we were on the patio which is doggie friendly and then one other small group inside. We were seated outside and our service was awesome as we were always checked on and being one of the only groups here it was nice to be remembered, we didn't ask for much just the usual drinks and dinner so let's dive into it! We ordered a flight and I just say each of the beers were just average with nothing really making me want to buy a pint of them my favorite being the Cuke as it was just strange with the cucumber and basil like it wasn't good by it wasn't bad it just had a very unique taste for a brew and let's just say it's the only one that stuck out to me as I also ordered a pint of their west coast ipa and it was just what it should be but in a average way. Then came out good my lady enjoyed her mushroom pizza she said it was good but not her favorite of the night as both her and I both enjoyed sharing the whisky onion soup as it had a really good flavor and was definitely the best thing we had here even better than the beer! My fried chicken sandwich was blah flavorless and really needed some help and if that wasn't enough the fries that came with it were soo salty that I really didn't care much for them. Overall mid brews super good whisky onion soup and awesome service but to be honest after all this I wouldn't come back as when it comes to breweries I've been to some of the best ones in the country and I know exactly what's good when it comes to them!

    Visited a couple of friends in Orlando and wanted to have a drink after. Saw this place on Yelp and had to give it a shot for the high ratings. Walked in and was sat in front of the TVs, just in time for the last quarter for the Bills game. Our server, Sidney took care of us immediately. Explained the menu in its entirety. We got the Belgian Witbier and Mexican lager, shared a giant pretzel with beer cheese. We left in good spirits and a full stomach. Thank you, Sidney for our wonderful first time experience. The food menu looks amazing - we're planning to come back and try the Fish n Chips and oysters. The beer menu was super unique. A fresh take on craft beer - and I love my beer.

    Check out a new place it was great! From the food to the impeccable service! Ambiance was more modernized compared to the previous brewery that was there! Live music and great beers!

    Bar seating
    Allison R.

    I had a terrible first impression when I first walked in. I asked for a table, and the waitress said one just cleared and started cleaning it for me. A few minutes later, a lady I assume was some sort of manager walked by and gave me this look, then asked what I was doing (not really a way to greet someone is it?). I said I had already been helped and the waitress was cleaning the table for me. She immediately got all frantic and said very rudely "oh no you can't have that table. We are on a wait." Then proceeded to find that waitress and chastise her in front of me. I felt extremely uncomfortable and honestly would have left had it not been that I was meeting someone else there. I told her I'd just sit at the bar. Thankfully my night turned around because the bartenders that helped us were very nice and very welcoming. They had a great selection of beer, actual good quality wines (a rarity at a lot of breweries), and even some cocktails, plus lots of food options. I didn't order food, but my friend got the pretzel. It was definitely the most unique bar pretzel I've ever had. It had a crispy, almost fried exterior with this awesome spice, yet was still fluffy in the middle. Really yummy bite (although I personally liked it plain and wasn't a fan of the beer cheese.)

    I don't want to tell you about this place because I don't want it to become more crowded! Run run run here! Bartender was fantastic. Oysters fresh and French fries the best! Pretty noisy and lively!

    Hanger steak and ale
    Evie N.

    My husband has come a couple of times and always spoke highly of his experience. It was my first time joining him for lunch on a Thursday. We were seated right away and given menus. I got the green sleeve cocktail which was right up my alley; vodka, cucumber, mint- YUM! We got a couple of options to share, Hanger steak and ale, 6 buffalo wings with ranch, 6 raw oysters (the James oysters). The steak, gravy and fries were such a delicious combination. The wings were very crispy, flavorful, and a great size. The oysters were really good, not grainy and the right size. We added Tabasco sauce to our oysters for a little kick. The ambiance is very inviting, I love how they changed the bar area and it has a lot of seating. The outside area is huge and very pretty, can't wait for cooler weather to sit outside!

    This is the kind of spot you want to kick back and stay a while. It's a craft brewery with a generous food menu and a great indoor-outdoor setup that feels super inviting. I started with a cucumber beer (yes, cucumber!)--light, crisp, and genuinely refreshing. They've got a wide range of varietals with some creative flavor profiles for anyone who likes to explore beyond the usual brews. Now, the food... a bit of a mixed bag. The burger was the clear standout: juicy, flavorful, and a solid deal at $12. Onion rings left us guessing on whether they were house-made or not, and the French onion soup was surprisingly light despite being loaded with onions. Not necessarily a bad thing, just not the rich flavor I was expecting. No official kids' menu, but the appetizer list includes chicken tenders, and honestly, there are enough kid-friendly options to make it work. That said, the cornbread was a one-and-done for me, dry and forgettable. Service was on point. Our waitress was lovely, and the whole team chipped in and made sure we were taken care of. I'd definitely swing by again for the atmosphere and beer. I'd just be a little more selective with the food picks next time.

    Finally got to see what my neighbors in Edgewood were talking about. This is an excellent addition to your community. My friends came in from Cape Canaveral, and I suggested we try this place located in the Fort Gatlin shopping center. We were greeted right away and sat promptly. Delaney was out server, and she was a ray of sunshine from start to finish. She took our orders promptly, came back often to see if everything was to our liking and set a great tone for our lunch. They have a pretty extensive menu for a "brewery" as well as good cocktail and beer selections. We ordered the following: One friend requested the Bull & Hen Burger with a stout beer. The FGT (Fried Green Tomato) on the burger caught his eye and he was very complimentary of the burger and the stout. My other friend ordered the Benny Blanco pizza, which was a combination of mozzarella, ricotta, parmesan, roasted garlic and basil pesto. It also had a nice balsamic drizzle that added to the flavor. I tried a slice and loved it! I did the Whiskey Onion Soup and the Arugula and Spinach Salad, along with a lager suggested by Delaney. The soup was excellent, with a combination of melted Swiss and Gouda on thick garlic crostini toast. The salad was a hearty mixture of green apple, feta and pecans, served with a lemon citrus vinaigrette. It was very good but had a little bit too much dressing for my taste that tended to overpower the salad towards the end. If you prefer to limit your dressing, be sure to ask for that upfront. I'll know next time, but I still enjoyed the salad overall. The place is very spacious and inviting. It also has an outside covered dining area I would like to try next time. Overall, great experience at this neighborhood establishment.

    Brussel sprouts- couldn't really identify the seasoning/sauce but very good
    Kim C.

    Our waitress (I wish I remembered her name) was absolutely phenomenal. She was kind, quick, attentive, not smothering. We sat on the patio and got devoured by mosquitos, so wear bug spray. Everyone liked the pizzas, everyone hated the burgers. Like couldn't even eat more than 3 bites, so dry. One was a kids burger and two were the $18 and really could only eat the onion ring. Drinks and appetizers were the highlights

    Very awesome aesthetics! Definitely not toddler friendly! We sat at the couch area and one of our tots darted and the other went after. We completely understand safety issues, but a gentleman behind the bar area wasn't very nice about it. Anyhow, one of the owners tried to converse with the kids and asked us how everything was. He was kind. We got pizza and wings and hubs got a beer. They took over the Gatlin brewing space and there's no areas in the back for doggies or kids to play like before. It's very nice but probably best to leave the kids home unless they're older. We definitely got some looks and it just made me feel uncomfortable. I really do like the renovation though. The pizza was fresh, not the best I've had but good. The wings are apparently marinated for 12 hours, but I didn't find it extraordinary. We got lemon pepper and garlic. Tara was sweet and attentive. We had to ask for napkins and silverware. Definitely cannot runabout in here though, I saw signs when I was leaving.

    I like beer. I like kitties. According to the shirt I'm currently wearing, I really like kitties…read moreand beer and honestly, that sums me up pretty well. As a loyal fan of Orlando's local brewery scene (shoutout to my neighborhood favorites Tactical and Ten10), I don't venture far from my comfort zone. But every now and then, I'll travel a daring five miles for a place that feels like it was plucked straight out of the Pacific Northwest and this is that place. The beer? Amazing. The staff? Incredible. The space? Open, welcoming, and plenty of seating to settle in for a while. Now let's talk about the only adventure here: parking. The immediate lot is small and can feel like you're competing in the Orlando Parking Olympics. But there's additional parking across the street to the left near some office buildings. Finding parking in Orlando sometimes feels as hard as snagging a spot in NYC, but trust me, it's worth the effort. They're constantly brewing something new okay, maybe not every single week, but it sure feels like it and somehow it's always excellent. There's always something fresh and creative on tap. So yes, I absolutely recommend this place. If you can park, come on in. You won't regret it.

I started with a coffee stout which was pretty good, but I was not able to find anything else I liked. So, I ended up trying their apple pie Moscow mule which was very good. It had the ideal amount of sweetness for a mixed drink in my opinion.

I think they gotta put their best foot forward being that Stasios is just next door. I love their meal deal where you get a sandwich, chips and a pint of one of three beers to choose from. I get their regular house lager which is light and refreshing on a hot day. I had family visiting, and we came out for luch. My brother had the pulled pork sandwich, and mom and I shared the turkey and pesto sandwich. This was such a simple sandwich but so good!! They really know how to make a good sandwich. Also, large enough for both of us to share and be satisfied. Of course; no trip to Sideward brewing is complete without an order of their boiled peanuts. A lot of people order them, and for good reason. I really like the korean spiced flavor, even comes with a sprig of cilantro as a garnish. Every time I come it's a relaxing, laid-back experience with really tasty, but simple food. I Love it, will definitely be back.

The Mac and cheese was creamy and cheesy but would have been better if it was hotter and had a little extra flavor.
