We had one family giving us great advice as to kid-friendly drinks on the menu, which sounded more like desserts. Both my kids just wanted plain diet soda. I kind of wished one of them had been the mood for the home-made root beer or cream soda with whipped cream. Sounded amazing. Of course, we were there for the flight. This place included all eight of their beers in the flight! And it was really well-priced. We really didn't want to drink that much but decided to splurge. I do like trying different beers, and it was a lot of fun to try eight from one place. Most of the beers weren't outstanding or too memorable, but they were all well-crafted. We really liked the stout. Definitely well worth more than one visit, but we were only in town overnight.

The interior is not classy or "upscale," but it is clean, comfortable and welcoming. It's a seat-yourself kind of place, so it was a moment before we were handed menus and asked for drink orders. Then it was a rather lengthy wait before our orders were taken. However, it didn't take that long for the food to arrive and, I will say this, it was definitely worth the wait. I ordered the Crispy Dill Chicken Sandwich with tater tots. It arrived piping hot and oh-so-good. The fried chicken sandwich was indeed crispy, VERY flavorful with three crisp pickle slices in there. The chicken itself tasted like it was brined in pickle juice as well. If you like pickles, you'll love this sandwich. It was excellent! The tater tots .... well, how can you screw that up?? They were hot, tasty and plentiful. Now, while initially a little slow, the service is friendly and attentive. My iced tea was refilled without even getting halfway down. Prices were reasonable. We look forward to stopping again when we pass through Republic (and skip the local hustle).

We were greeted with a warm friendly server and a choice of indoor or outdoor seating. We chose to sit on the patio and happy we did - it was a beautiful day, good for people watching and the birds were singing their tune. After reviewing the menu we put in our order. We all got some variation of Eggs Benedict - add avocado or bacon. We each had a different drink. I had the bloody Mary and found it to be one of the best I've ever had!! Friends had a long island and a wine spritzer. They each enjoyed the libations!! The eggs were perfectly cooked and the homemade hollandaise sauce was KILLER!!! Another person waiting tables came by to check on us. When we replied how much we were enjoying our meal, he said "well then, you need to come back on Monday. Our chef makes all the desserts and they are simply the best. We offer a sinful chocolate cake and a cream brulee cheesecake that will knock your socks off." I was convinced in that moment that I needed this cheesecake so we ordered 2 to-go. It did, in fact, knock my socks off!!!! I was very impressed with this beautiful little restaurant, their service was remarkable and the atmosphere was so inviting. Whatever you do...come here and eat, drink, and be merry!! One last comment: a few days later we were visiting the brewery next door and ordered the Cowboy Nachos (smothered fries)...OMG, so good (recommend a side of their homemade ranch - you're welcome)!!!

Good atmosphere and service, very good Friday live music = 5 stars…read more Pizza and French dip were fine, cheese fries were really good = 4 stars Beer & booze = 1 star. Beer selection was weak, no ambers and no darks without coffee flavoring. The 4 beers I tasted were sub par. Very weak mixed drink menu and hard alcohol selection. For a brewery, I would expect the beer to be the best part of the establishment, not the music.

Pretzel with beer cheese dipping sauce: the pretzel tasted like it was freshly out of the oven - crispy on the outside while soft on the inside. I thought the sauce was a little bit on the saltier side. I would've preferred it to be a bit sweeter just because the pretzel was already salty. Great appetizer nonetheless. 2. Beef dip: I will let the picture speak for itself as I am having a hard time stopping myself from drooling... All jokes aside, I thought the au jus had amazing flavours and really helped to bring the sandwich together. 100% would order again.

This is a very special place, and I hope it continues to welcome locals and wandering travelers like us.

QBC is my 308th brewery! Not exactly local for us but it was a great little day trip…read more It was pretty cold so no outside seating today but no worries as QBC has a nice indoor bar area. I told the beer tender to set me up with a flight of five, while SWPFTD ordered a pint of the Angel Peak Amber. Purple Flat Top hazy IPA is a really good IPA with great hop flavor but very manageable bitterness. Peewee Falls hoppy Pilsner didn't work for me. It had a little bit of an aroma and flavor that didn't appeal. YMMV. Timber Mountain tripel was good for me. I was tempted to go with a pint of this but decided on another. Iron Mountain stout had a nice roasty chocolatey flavor to it. Very drinkable! Bangs Mountain dark Kolsch was a good beer as well. I also tried the amber which SWPFTD ordered. This was a decent little amber. SWPFTD approved. Our daughter-in-law had ordered the wassail and it was pretty cool to see they had one on. I decided to go ahead and revisit the hazy IPA. They don't have food at QBC but they had a food truck when we arrived. Lola's Good Eats was REALLY good! QBC is a great spot. Great beer and all! If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand.
