Every time I return I find myself loving this place more and more. As an out of town visitor, it is absolutely lovely to feel as if you have an easygoing place to grab a drink. Regardless of who is tending to us, we have never felt anything but welcome. Michael, Kylie and Danny go beyond what is expected of them and create a wonderful friendly atmosphere for guests to converse. The variety of events hosted by Starr Hill have me marking my calendars and excited for my next return! read more

Very nice brew pub with excellent beer (at least the ones I tried). Has samples of 3; Murphy's Gold a crisp Lager; Jomo, a Viennna Lager, and Blackbird, which is a Dark IPA, sorta like a tart German dunkel. All three were very tasty, but I went down the middle with Jomo. For food, I had a Steak Sandwich, which was on a very nice roll, with potato salad, that was very well made. Not overly mayonnaised at all. Service was quick, although it was not really busy at the time. I do intend to return there when I get a chance, and will try more foods and beers. read more

Great menu... one of the best for casual dining/brunch with reasonable prices. Kind of a craft brew house feel ...not to be obvious. Lots of TVs with a very large one on the first level. Today I had the southern omelette and it was excellent. The biscuit was a huge disappointment... looked good but crumbled and definitely not made fresh today. . The potatoes were good. The chili was good but not as chunky as I'd prefer, suspect the ground beef was too high in fat. The chicken tenders were very good as were the fries. Service is friendly and attentive. Parking is free for 2 hours in the garage adjoining Wegmans. read more

Can't tell you about the food because I never got served. Not busy Sunday night 7pm. I watched other tables get items and checked on but they ignored me with my menu 10 minutes so I walked. read more

Came here for a group event - this place is just a few steps walk across from the McLean metro stop. The area seems to be still under development but in the same complex there is also a huge Wegmans and the Watermark hotel. The pub is quite large and spacious and decor is modern - big windows, high ceilings, a long bar and spacious comfortable seating all around. There is a second floor and apparently a rooftop but not open at the time we were there. We had a bunch of apps - nachos, artichoke dips, honey glazed chicken etc, all quite tasty the artichoke dip in particular is a must have. Great venue for group gatherings. read more

Good drinks and decent bar food selection (good sandwiches and Mac & Cheese) with plenty of space, great for groups and family-friendly! Bands play during some weekdays. I came here 3 times - dinner, take-out, and brunch with kiddos. There are over a draft beers on tap. The Hot Butter Rum cocktail was warm and delicious, a nice boozy dessert and perfect for the winter. Kids enjoyed the brunch with crispy Fench Toast Sticks with cornflake and cinnamon crust. I snuck in a couple sticks myself! The Breakfast Burrito was very bland with scrambled eggs, cheese, peppers, and onions, (opted vegetarian style without the sausage). It was missing sauce. The home fries were lukewarm and the Biscuit was a bit dense. The Veggie Sandwich offered during lunch/dinner was quite tasty with a fresh veggies - roasted red pepper and mushroom with arugula and melty cheese with hummus stuffed inside fluffy Ciabatta bread. The flavors blended well together and it was surprisingly the sandwich was easy to eat and didn't fall apart. Hubby enjoyed his pulled pork sandwich. The Mac & Cheese was creamy and cheesy, and on point both at brunch and take-out! Glad I upgraded my side to the Mac & Cheese for the take-out order. The Fried Mac & Cheese Balls and Crispy Cauliflower Bites were both underwhelming and pricey. The Mac & Cheese Arancini balls were very bland and the sauce was the best part. The Crispy Cauliflower Bites didn't taste like tempura, were light breading. The aioli sauce was the best part. They weren't worth the hefty $13 price tag and just get a side of Mac & Cheese! Fries are best eaten at the restaurant - skip them for take-out. They were a bit lukewarm and bland. While the food is decent and not the best, the atmosphere and service is great and makes for a good, fun experience with family and friends. read more

My party and I had a great experience at Starr Hill Brewpub celebrating my husband's 40th birthday. We reached out to manager, Brian, pretty last minute looking for a gathering space and food. Brian responded right away and got us squared away with a semi private area for our group and food pre-ordered. The bartender, Mark, was very friendly and accommodating and overall it was a great experience. Highly recommend! read more

Stayed at the Watermark Hotel in the same building so had to check out the new (to me) brewpub. It was pretty slow when I stopped in but the bartender was welcoming and attentive. The space is catered more to the office crowd being a good spot for lunch or an after-work happy hour. The beer was exactly what I expect from Starr Hill: decent but nothing to write home about. The food, however really let me down. It was overall really bland. The cauliflower had basically no seasoning and was just a basic flour dredge. The aioli was the saving grace for that. The pretzel was an all around disappointment. You won't convince me the "cheese" was just watered down Velveeta and the mustard was just the basic, fast food yellow kind. The pretzel itself was just a brioche bun in the shape of a pretzel. If you busted that out at an Oktoberfest you'd get your lederhosen card revoked. Go for the beer and to hang with people. Skip the overpriced fair food. read more

First of all, some housekeeping. There are two places here - the Starr Hill Brewpub, which you are reading about. That is indoors and air conditioned. There is also the Starr Hill Biergarten on the rooftop. The Biergarten has a more limited menu, but has live music and stuff. But we won't talk about that because this isn't a Yelp of that and I wasn't there. I was indoors. The Starr Hill Brewpub has a good selection of pub food and beer. I don't drink alcohol, but several people in the group I was with did and liked the beer. I got the Southwest Chicken Sandwich with fries and it was good. A bit of a small sandwich but very filling. The salads are huge, enough for a meal, unless of course you just get a side salad. Burgers are giant and apparently juicy. It was quiet here at 12:30 PM on a Saturday afternoon, we had enough space for our large group of 11, but anything more than that except maybe 12 would have been a problem. The staff here were very friendly and helpful. We were a large group but they worked with us and were patient. But the whole "ladies" first take all the ladies orders first in our large group seemed a bit weird. What is this, the 1950s? We all thought it was weird, even the women. And we're a wide range of ages too, from people in their 30s to people in their 70s. But anyway good food, good beer (supposedly), good staff, and it's got A/C in the summer. You park in the garage next door, it's two hour parking, just be sure to take your ticket. Or if there's a baseball game at the nearby field, you can park there for $5 (in addition to the cost of the game tickets), watch a baseball game, then walk over here afterwards and you won't get towed. That's what we did. read more

Our musical journey to see The Avett Brothers at Wolftrap landed us at the Watermark hotel. Highly recommend. We got in kind of late and took a quick walk downstairs to Starr Hill. Live music getting ready to start, which we love. We got Mac and cheese bites, bbq and chicken sliders. Nothing overly fancy or impressive, but we're good. After 9pm, you have to order at the bar. Waiter:bartender was nice. Not a busy place, but it was a Thursday night, so not surprising. Lots of options on the menu. Pretty big, clean place. Convenient to Capital One Hall. Overall, we enjoyed! read more

Perfectly fine brewpub in the Capital One complex. Nice selection of beers including a variety of styles and clever names Apps tended toward the expected (lots of fried stuff) as did the menu of burgers and sandwiches, some salads, and a couple of pastas. Surprisingly good wings... Tons of TVs with a variety of sports as you'd hope for in a place like this. Service was friendly ... kitchen a little slow ... but all in perfectly decent, right on brand for a sports pub... if nothing too special. read more

Went here after playing mini golf at the perch. I got chicken tenders, fries, extra honey mustard, and an espresso martini. It was 21+ after a certain time, which I didn't know. Then it was seat yourself and order at the bar. Didn't have much direction so we were confused for a bit but it all worked out. Live music was cool. read more

It's a sports bar. Plenty of TVs and decent food. If you are headed to Capital one hall for a show there aren't a lot of options around so this is a good place to stop. If you're looking for a place to hang out with friends, you're in the wrong starr hill.

Starr Hill Brewpub - Bbq sandwich but the fries are the real starr here. - Brewpubs Near Me - Tysons, Virginia

Good beer, OK service at this rooftop beer garden in Tysons. Large space, easy to bring a group, friends or kids. Huge screen with games, movies etc - they do summer movie nights up here. Service at the bar was rough, line made no sense and bartenders didn't seem to care. Beer itself was good, as a former C'Ville resident I'll always have a soft spot for Starr Hill. read more

For a joint team happy hour, we went to Starr Hill Brewpub last week since it was way too hot to enjoy anything at the Biergarten. The service was quick and we got our drinks and food super quickly. I got to try a couple drinks! The ESPRESSO MARTINI was way too sweet, so I didn't really enjoy it. The PINEAPPLE CRUSH was perfect for me -- not too sweet, incredibly fruity and carbonated. Drinks are pretty strong here! We all got a bunch of appetizers and the ones I got to try was not bad. The CHICKEN WINGS were a bit dry but the blue cheese dressing helped. CHICKEN TENDERS with the honey mustard sauce was quite good. The NACHOS were a bit underwhelming, but it had a good amount of cheese and toppings. The HUMMUS PLATTER was alright, nothing special. I am not a huge fan of pickles, but our group really liked the FRIED PICKLES and we got several orders of it. For lunch, I ordered the SURF AND TURF, which is marinated flank steak drizzled with a mushroom based sauce. There is also a generous serving of mac and cheese in between the steak and the jumbo lump crab cake. I thought the steak was fine itself, and not a fan of the mushroom sauce which was way too salty. Also did not like the portobellos that were stir-fried with the steak since they had a weird flavor. I enjoyed the mac and cheese because it wasn't too salty. I was not a fan of the crab cake and didn't enjoy the seasoning or flavor. Overall, the food was just OK. Their drinks are better for sure. Everything here is pretty expensive. Service was good! read more

Beers are good, food is solid, but why does the band have to be so loud for the 15 patrons on a Friday evening? Every time we go at night, we spend the night yelling to the person sitting across from us. This isn't a concert hall, it's a brewery that offers a live band. read more

Nachos: Picture this, something's changed, you can feel it in the air. It's autumn. It has such a way of creeping up on you. Quietly, then all at once, like it was never gone. You forget about it until it grabs hold of you, out of nowhere, and then it's just sensory memory. You know it in your bones, and you just trust it, it fills your lungs and you just let it. It's too perfect of a day. They play all the right songs, the bourbons just right, and for once, you stayed til the end of happy hour. After avoiding so many, this one feels different, maybe because it was for you. Ofcourse you only said yes knowing there'd be nachos. Chilli nachos, not something you'd normally go for but they were surprisingly good. Subtle change doesn't hurt, does it? And there's something about a happy hour after work. Everyone caught between their work selves and who they really are beneath the formal attire. But then the ties loosen, the sleeves roll up, and the laughter spills just like the drinks. unsteady, honest, uncontained. It all blends together. The fatigue, the relief, the brief unspoken coexistence, the ease of being known. Maybe that's the thing about change. It starts small, vulnerable, like choosing the chilli nachos, or saying yes to a happy hour, letting loose, and realizing you don't mind the difference at all. Maybe your coworkers, the bartender, the setting sun, maybe they all know something you don't. That change, even the kind that pulls you away, can be kind. That there's goodness waiting, even when you can't see it yet. Sometimes you get so caught up in the dark corners of your own life, until you catch the glow from someone else's joy and trust it long enough to step forward. Anyway, the nachos are good. Gone before you even realize you'd stopped thinking about leaving. Leaving the hour, leaving this town, the state you've been in for so many years. Youre terrible at change, but the bartender made you the best drink youve had in your life and for a moment, youre just there. Not in the future, nor in the past. Youre meant to be there, just in that moment. And so maybe wherever you're headed next, is also exactly where you're meant to go. You can't know it beforehand, but trust it when you're there. All else: Leaving feels so wrong, but God it feels so right. So long Virginia, you've been good. read more

Starr Hill Brewpub - Nachos - Brewpubs Near Me - Tysons, Virginia

We stopped by Starr Hill because I saw they were doing free Christmas cookie decorating, and we figured it was a great reason to try this place out. The brewpub is located (indoors) beside Capitol One Hall. We were able to find free 2 hour parking in a lot nearby on a Saturday. They have two floors, so the day we went they were doing cookie decorating on the second floor and the first floor was being used as normal. After we decorated our cookies, we got a table on the first floor to grab some food and drink. They were very busy, but we were able to get a table in less than 10 minutes. We both got the hot buttered rum drinks, and they were one of the best drinks I have had. We then shared an order of cheese fries which were cheesy and delicious, and had a good amount of toppings. I really enjoyed our visit here and will definitely be back! read more

Starr Hill Brewpub - Steak sandwich - Brewpubs Near Me - Tysons, Virginia

The Biergarten rooftop and outdoor bar area are so fun, especially with live music. It's a great vibe. When we came, it was drizzling and there were no seats in the roofed area. We ate inside at the Starr Hill Brewpub (party of 16). Service was nice but extremely slow- like, bringing 1 water at a time for a party of 16. It took at least 30 minutes to put our food order in, but once it was in, food came out fast. Food was comparable to mediocre ball park food. The steak sandwich and fried chicken sandwiches were dry. The best thing I tried that night were the nachos- delicious. I ordered the fish and chips and enjoyed. Not sure if I'll come back to the Brewpub again, but I'll come back to the Biergarten for sure!! read more

Live music is great but if it's so loud that you can't have a conversation without shouting at your table then it's not really pleasant. Also the cheeseburger while it looked great in terms of presentation had almost no flavor. Somehow forgot to even put in salt I guess. I think overall the brewpub is a great addition to the area and the service was incredibly quick for both food and drinks. I just have to go back sometime on a weekend instead of a weeknight to see if it gets better, read more

This review is for the main street level bar/ restaurant area. Its right next door to the Cap One Theater, so a good place to grab a bite to eat before the show. The dining area isn't that large, but luckily not super crowded when we went. Our server was quite attentive and friendly during the meal. We ordered the fried chicken salad and the sliders to split, and its was more than enough food for the both of us. Both were well made and flavorful, but not necessarily crave-able food. The available drinks were also limited- they were out of several on draft when we went which was disappointing. Overall a good meal and place to eat before a show. read more

I tried Starr Hill brewpub for the first time. Somewhat noisy but not too bad. Lots of tvs tuned to sports with one very large screen. Beer was very good, food was decent. Lots of people on a Saturday night. read more

Great environment. One of the best bartenders ever. That. Is. Not. An. Exaggeration. Very helpful. Very with it.

The beers were fine and came quickly. Waiter appeared quickly and took our order. I asked if two deletions could be done on my order and was told that could happen. Despite that, my order came with both things, one is a personal preference ( I just ate it)and the other is due to a medical condition, (I removed it from the sandwich and placed it on the table) as well as what appeared to be a piece of string.. The waiter never came back to check on us until we we were finished. I expressed my disappointment in my order and his lack of service and he told us they got busy very suddenly. No apology. We asked to speak to the manager who did come to our table and comped my food and offered us two beers on the house. We declined. Disappointing. What was correct was pretty good for pub food. read more

Food: The food was great! No complaints at all. Our burger and sandwich had a fresh flavor and were juicy. Service: Our server was fantastic. She was kind, personable, and quick. Atmosphere: The restaurant has a great atmosphere and a lively bar. The restaurant had modern decor. Overall it was great! Would recommend. read more

Went in on Father's Day with my wife and two daughters around 3:00 pm. One Bartender, one Wait Staff, one other table with food, and three guys having drinks at the bar. Received water and menus within the first few minutes. Only received food menus, and had to walk up to the bar display to read the beer menu. Bartender never even acknowledged we were there. Waited another 10-15 min at the table to place an order, and finally went back to the bar to order. Still only the three guys having drinks, and the bartender never acknowledged me to place an order after another solid 5-min. Decided to leave. Definitely too high of a rent district to have this terrible service. Not sure this place is going to survive. read more

Tonight I went to Starr Hill Brewpub to hear friends who were playing in a band there that night. The place itself is clean and nice, the wait staff was great, and the food and drinks were also great. I DO have to complain about the bouncer who I feel was not doing his job. He was basically sitting by the front door looking at his phone. There was a very drunk woman patron there who kept going up by the stage with a full glass of beer and sloshing it up near the stage and their equipment. The first time it happened, we notified the bouncer who went up to her and told her she needed to keep her full glass of beer at the table, if she wanted to dance. This same thing happened again a 2nd time and she was asked to keep her full beer at her table and away from the stage. The third incident is that she goes up on stage dancing among the band members while they are trying to play with her full beer in hand dancing. This was totally inappropriate and the bouncer came up on stage and brought her off the stage. At this point, I totally feel like the appropriate action for the bouncer would have been to ask her to leave the restaurant at this point, but of course he didn't. 4th incident and this drunk woman again is going up on stage with the band while they are trying to play with her full beer. I don't know if that bouncer was paying attention at this point, as my female friend at this point grabbed her by the arm to take her off the stage. Where is the bouncer at this point? Why is he not doing his job? This was the 4th incident. How many incidents do we need to have before she is asked to leave? It was getting crazy at this point. When we asked the bouncer why he wasn't doing his job and telling her to leave at this point, his answer was that he was the only one bouncer. How many bouncers does it take to ask this drunk woman to leave? It was totally unacceptable and a huge disappointment. This bouncer looked like he was probably a former body builder also, so it was not like the drunk woman was physically bigger or stronger than him. This bouncer was totally not doing the job he was hired to do there. read more

Fantastic location for private event. The staff was so accommodating, we were able to reserve the second level for our private event.

Looking forward to going back. Try the espresso martinis, delicious! read more
