Our pup travels everywhere with us, so finding these spots is important to us. It was very spacious too - so we weren't on top of other guests. They have an extensive menu and the same with the beer list. There is something for everyone, from hoppy IPAs to fruity sours. Not sure which beer you may like - get a sample. Or try a flight! For lunch, we got the deviled eggs to start - something that is a go-to for us. They were solid and enjoyable. For the main, we opted for the Abridged burger and the Chicken club. Both were solid as well. Fries were crispy, but a bit over-salted, and I enjoy some salt. So made a note for next time to "go light". Service was good too. Overall - really only a tiny detail to 'complain' about, but easily taken care of next time. We will be back for sure - I want to try their pizza!

If you want a personal pizza, try the vodka, pancett, pepperoni, yummy Also love a burger or the chicken nachos! Whether bar or table service, servers do stop and ask anything needed. There are times that it's really busy so if you're ordering a personal pizza and sandwiches make sure your sandwiches are ordered first, I say this since they have a kitchen and a pizza kitchen, so I have had pizza come out first and friends at the table waiting on a sandwich for sometime. The ambiance is inviting, cocktail bar as well as beer tap bar, and several areas of tables to enjoy a meal. Worth stopping in!

We had a chef salad minus meat and egg (vegetarian daughter in tow), a kids cheese pizza and the abridged cheeseburger. All three items were terrific. The only slight criticism is that the pizza kitchen is separate from the main kitchen so the pizza arrived in 5 minutes along with the salad and then the burger came out 15 minutes later. No knock on the restaurant because all three dishes were terrific and cooked to order. The quality of the ingredients stands out as superior to most restaurants and you can tell they care in how they plate and prepare the dishes as well. We sat at a high top table in the bar and the server was polite and friendly.

I'm glad we decided to venture inside. There were lots of vendors selling their wares, and the boutique stores were nice. We decided to eat at Eat More Beef, and boy! The burger melted in my mouth, and the fries were hot, crispy, and salty. We had two servers, Autumn and Kimmie who were interesting and seemed to enjoy their jobs. This is impressive and kind of rare anymore. Good servers are imperative to a positive dinner experience. They win for being awesome. The bar was warm, welcoming, and clean! If you're looking for smash burgers and cold beer, this is the place for you. I wish the parking was free all the time but since I can't control that, I'll leave it alone.

We got the deviled eggs, southwestern Benedict, green tomato Benedict, and the breakfast burrito. Everything was great. I didn't have anything to drink other than water, which seems silly at a place that has beer in the title, but check out the brunch. The servers were mostly younger folks, but really attentive and professional. The vibe is clean and casual. A spot that the local college kids dig, which I wasn't mad about. I'm a kid at heart. My buddy got the ice cream cookie thing and the banana pudding taster. The ice cream cookie will make me quickly turn into the Michelin man, but damn it was good.

Brunch gives you access to a small buffet (fresh fruit, potato salad, chicken salad, pasta salad, brownies, and cookies) that you can help yourself to while waiting for entrees.

The energy and ambiance didn't feel overly hurried and it was overall very welcoming and pleasant. I ate the quinoa benedict and LOVED it!! For two entrees, coffee, and a large mimosa carafe we split about $50.

It was a little chilly, but not quite "Ohio" chilly so we sat ourselves outside with a couple of hazy IPA aka Juice Bombs from Sloop Brewery. This brew pub is sandwiched between brick buildings: Stacks, a burger pub, on the right and another commercial building on the left. Across the street is the Police, so be warned, and don't get too funky. We asked if they had food and said no but it was ok to get some take out and eat it at their table or order from Stacks (what we did) and they bring it to your table from next door. Even better. Stacks' mushroom burger and stack cheese burger were very good too. We washed those down with another set of local IPAs called Southeast by Tailgate Brewery in Nashville, TN, also very good. Some of the tables have heating lamps which would have been nice as it got chillier. Not ours. But no sweat. This place does occasionally make their own beer as well but it's primarily a brew pub which sells other beer and canned beer from all over. I'm glad we had a chance to come. Now for the drive home. Thankfully we are less than 2 hours away. Atlanta here we come!

He is very knowledgeable about every facet of each beer, and Fanatic has many different styles of beer than most pubs in Knoxville. They also retail sell to many restaurants,stores, and other breweries. Their Cobbled Path Porter is one of the best I have had. They also have Gose,Ciders,IPAs,and Shandys, like most other brewers, but they have a tendency to brew a little more than your average place. They specialize in Czech darks,Ambers and Pales, German Pilsners,Stouts, Schwarzbier,Oud Bruin,Hefeweizens,Kellerbiers, and even a Radler which is not something that is usually available but across the Pond as the British say. So, if you are interested in eclectic tastes and awesome beers, this is a great place to broaden your taste buds. The staff are very friendly and very helpful there are also bands on Fridays, games are available for everyone to play. A great patio with a fire pit is always a welcome site.
