    Thank you for catering the Yelp Elite Event at Love, Katie Distilling. Nice variety of sweet and savory and mostly finger foods.

    Not only was the family adorable- but the food they made was top knotch!!! I actually couldn't help myself looking at the menu... I really ordered this all for me. If you're in the mood for a guilty greasy pleasure, this gotta be your stop! I also drove home with this food and it was still delicious 30 minutes after the fact....

    Corn bread
    Manda P.

    The place seemed nice; the location and inside. You can sit and eat, but unfortunately, the food was disssgustiiiingggg. I got cornbread that was not cooked properly or at all. The chicken looked good on the outside, but was not seasoned and watery inside. Gross. The chicken breast wing was normal, yet the side wing was huge, which makes me feel it's not real meat. The cheese in the Mac and cheese was watery and the noodles wasn't cooked long enough. I asked for utensil and didn't get any. I only gave it a two because at least the customer service was nice. It was a waste of my time and money. I would not recommend nor go back

    Friendly staff, clean and bright eating areas. Food was good and easy to find parking

    916 and Bernie max salad- that's right a burger salad!!
    Jackie A.

    Do not snooze on the Brinery- these people are wonderful and their food is home made, from scratch and OUTSTANDING. they pour love and creativity into every dish that comes out of that kitchen. My FAVORITE on the menu is the 916 burger- I never had a better burger in my life, I prefer the smash style , and chef makes his own buns. It's just so delicious! If you want the same bang but want to be a little healthier, said amazing burger can be put on a salad, and that's the Bernie MAC salad!! Now I have to go get one, so do you a solid and get you some Brinery deliciousness!

    916 double smash burger. Too much char for me
    Alexis P.

    The pics looked good, so my cousin and I went on a Thursday, we were the only ones there. I had the 916 (double smash burger) and my cousin, the unnamed chicken sandwich. The food took quite a long time to come out. Wish they would have taken my patties off the grill sooner, they were so charred, that's all I could taste. I ate what I could, I didn't bring it to the waiters attention, didn't feel like going through that. My cousin didn't realize the sandwich was a thigh and not a breast. She liked the breading but wouldn't have gotten it knowing it was a thigh. Friendly service, although, it was extremely slow.

    Pickle tots

    My friends and I were at a brewery nearby The Brinery. The staff let us know that the Brinery delivers to them and we didn't hesitate to order. I opted for one of the smashburger options along with the pickle tots. The food arrived within 20-30 minutes and was piping hot. The burger was fresh, juicy, and delicious. The burger patties were much larger than the bun. I was thankful they included plastic cutlery with the food because I needed the fork for everything that fell out. The pickle tots were crispy and a cross between a thick tater tot and a fried pickle. They came with homemade ranch and it was creamy and flavorful. I'm so glad I finally had the opportunity to try this business'

    The brinery has been on my list for a LONG time now - and I finally got in. Never knew how much I could love a fried chicken thigh sandwich til now. Everything they make is great and even while fried - makes you feel good while eating it. I will absolutely be making this a normal spot for me to meet friends over some bomb food at. Thanks for being a 10/10 brinery! Service was great and very clean inside!

    Nashville Hot Chicken
    Spencer S.

    Popped in to Sharpsburg and The Brinery after an afternoon of errands. We were hungry and had heard great things about the sandwiches and burgers here. When we stopped in around 3pm there was one other group eating and then left shortly thereafter and we had the place to ourselves. There's probably 5-6 tables in the eat-in side of the business with big windows looking out onto the street. Overall the place was a little dingy feeling and not terribly clean, but if they're going for that greasy divey feeling they're nailing it. Good classic 80s tunes cranking while we waited and our food was ready in about 10-15 minutes. My wife got the 916 which is their standard smash burger with a side of fries. I wish the fries had come with a little more than just ketchup packets, but the fries were pretty good. Her smash burger was pretty good too. I got the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich which was piping hot and had a good balance of pickles and sauce. I was hoping for a little more kick of spicy heat than I got, but overall the chili oil flavor was right. Dropped a star for the dirty tables/chairs, but overall was happy with the meal and would come back to try other things. Not sure I'd do the Nashville Hot again though the fried chicken was good.

    Chili crisp double burger

    A bunch of us stopped by on Friday because they were donating a portion of their sales that evening to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Luckily we got there on the earlier side around 5:30pm because their line was basically nonstop after we ordered. Our food came out pretty quickly and it was so hearty and filling and comforting. There's probably around 20 seats or so in the main dining area with tables and a few seats in the area where you order. My favorites were the massive Nashville Hot sandwich (which had a kick to it which I loved!) and pickle tots and I don't even usually like pickles. I really want to come back and try their pork belly sandwich and their lobster roll!

    Not a lot to say but this pork sandwich I got was so juicy it was gone in seconds Would recommend

    BREAKFAST egg rolls. I was skeptical but they were so good!  Bonus peppermint mocha with a shot of Love Kate coffee liquor
    Morgan B.

    Stopped for Saturday morning brunch. As you walk in you order, and sit and wait for food. It's clean and minimalist decorated. Staff is nice and helpful. The seating is ok but they have the little metal chairs and they are a bit uncomfortable. I opted for the breakfast egg rolls and they did not didisappoint. Very good. For their brunch they have love Katie distillery serving mimosas and bloody Mary's. It's a beautiful partnership and we will be back.

It's a proper neighborhood butcher shop on Butler Street, the kind of place that had mostly disappeared around here. They do whole animal butchery with meat sourced from local Pennsylvania farms, and you can feel how much the folks working there care about what they're doing. It's not a huge space, just a display case full of cuts, a wall of house made goods, and a small sandwich menu, but that's part of the charm. The staff were friendly and happy to point me in the right direction. The sandwiches are what really got me though. The smash burger is fantastic, a double patty on a challah bun with that special sauce, and you can actually taste the quality of the beef, which makes sense given the whole operation is built around good meat. I also grabbed some of their house made pastrami, and it did not disappoint, tender and full of flavor. Knowing everything is made in house, right down to the bacon and sausages, makes it even better. If you live nearby and don't have a butcher yet, this is the one.

Love the decor in the shop. There were many prepared food options in the fridge, as well as various cuts of meat/preparations of it. We got two sandwiches, the cheesesteak and the marbella. I dont think we ended up with the correct order because we didn't end up with a cheesesteak, but did not realize until we got home. I'm positive that if I went back to the shop they would've remedied the situation, but I didn't feel it was necessary! The sandwich we did end up with was good as well, unsure which one it was though. Very fair prices, and our dog was so happy we brought him home a bone as well! Looking forward to coming back and trying everything they have to offer.

I was actually quite impressed with how well it was prepared. Nice and flaky but didn't fall apart. The bun it comes on is well proportion with the fish. The only thing I could've went without, was the macaroni salad topped on the fish. However, the food here never disappoints. I'll be back.

    You like traditional goto, must have, sandwich from Pittsburgh? If you do, this place is for you…read more This place was started by Joe Primanti in 1933 to feed shift workers from the local warehouses (coal and iron) and railroads. They are known for big sandwiches which now includes fries and cole slaw. The sandwiches provided value to workers...who were looking for a place to feed themselves to keep their energy up for a long shift. When you sit at the bar and you can only imagine the workers that sat here to feed themselves with what little they had. They found a sandwich between two pieces of soft Italian bread with a good balance of meat, cheese, cole slaw and fries...think energy and value. The history here is real and intense. Would I rate this as a culinary destination? Not particularly but I would say it's a must see to be part of US history as the town righted itself and came to life. The sandwich? I had the pastrami with cole slaw, egg, fries and tomato on Italian bread. Remarkably, the sandwich was light...despite it sounding heavy. The cabbage and tomatoes bring a great balance to the sandwich which makes it messy and remarkably light. Be prepared to get messy..so eat fast! I am probably talking too much about the sandwich...just go try it. The food is probably a 3.5 but it gets the extra .5 for the amazing history there. The service was great...well educated on the product, accommodating in every way. If you are in Pittsburgh, this is a must try.

One employee was VERY nice to my father who has mobility issues and let him sit inside in a chair while we stood in the line to get in, which did move relatively quick. I think 20 people ahead of us, and we were at a table in under 15 min. 5 of us ordered 5 different things, and only one person had an actually 'good' meal. That is not a high % of quality food. The rest were super bland and off the mark flavor wise. Our waitress was also nowhere to be found half the time, we often needed drink refills and she only came over to take our order and that was really it. We had to ask another employee for water and napkins. I just don't 'get' it. The hype is not worth it.

The Mr. orange was really tasty. Peri peri sauces are some of my favorite and I'm always chasing that high of a cheeky Nandos (iykyk) I do think the heat was a little more than I expected but there are options to customize to cut the heat. The problem was the coveted French onion soup burger. Holy sodium. Without even dipping into the side car of jus it was like eating a salt lick. I don't want to write stuntpig off because it could just be the case of bad, overly salted meat, but man am I disappointed.
