They don't serve any food though, so might not be a good choice if you're hungry. - Dogfish Head Grateful Dead IPA: 10000/10 (an amazing, refreshing IPA that isn't too strong! Medium-bodied, pretty fruit-forward with notes of pineapple and mango. Honestly one of the best IPAs I've had in a whileee) - Kasteel Wit: 9/10 (light-body wheat beer that's also super refreshing and flavorful!) - Hacker Pschor Oktoberfest: 10/10 (great marzen) - Rhineheist Cheetah lager: 8/10 (decent lager) - Guinness: 6/10 (the Guinness was wayyyyy too watery!!!) - Ferndale Project Apple Pie: 9/10 (actually tastes like apple pie and vanilla! It's def on the sweeter side though, so you might not like it if you're not into sweet beer) Overall, I definitely want to come back and sit outside when the weather is nicer!

They use Zingermens for their breads & buns so that's also top tier. Everything I've eaten here has been delicious, perfectly seasoned & cooked exactly as ordered. The quality, attention to detail in flavor & execution is some of the best I've seen at any Bar/Pub.

My partner and I had a very concerning experience with Powell's Pub after discovering a charge we…read moredid not recognize or believe was authorized. My partner first went to the bar in person to ask about the charge and request a copy of the receipt. According to him, the owner got in his face and suggested that he had been too intoxicated to remember what happened that night. Instead of providing the receipt, the business continued giving both of us the runaround. After my partner called me, I spent three days trying to obtain the receipt. I wanted to see the itemized charges and the signature because someone had apparently signed the receipt to authorize the transaction, and I wanted to know who had done so. On July 28, I called again. During that conversation, the owner hung up on me three times. I called back because the issue was still unresolved. He then threatened to call the police and accuse me of harassment for continuing to request the receipt. The owner asked whose card had been used. I told him it was my card and that my partner had permission to use it, but the bar did not have permission to add or approve unauthorized charges. He responded that he had not stolen my money. I told him that while he may not have personally taken it, I believed an employee may have processed an unauthorized charge and that the business was refusing to help clarify what happened. We finally received the receipt only after I explained that my partner had contacted the city to ask about the proper way to peacefully protest outside the business. I also made it clear that none of that would be necessary if Powell's Pub simply provided the receipt we had been requesting for three days. My concern was not only the amount charged. My concern was that someone appeared to have signed a receipt authorizing the charge, and we needed documentation to determine whether the signature and transaction were legitimate. Until we could review that receipt, we had no way to know who authorized it. I am sharing this experience so other customers know to review their charges carefully, save their receipts, and request documentation immediately if something does not look right. A request for an itemized and signed receipt should not require three days of phone calls, an in-person confrontation, threats involving the police, and the possibility of a public protest.

There was no host/hostess at the door waiting to seat us at grizzly peak upstairs, so we walked around looking for seats at or near the bar. However, their large tables only seat 6, and we were a party of 8. We then were told by the bartender that there would be more room in the Old German which is beneath Grizzly Peak. Downstairs we sat ourselves, and had service within a few minutes. She was polite, attentive, and took all 8 orders from memory which was impressive. They were out of porter which is normally my beer of choice. However, the belgian trippel they had on "Brewer's Special" was quite tasty. The men's restroom has a bit of an awkwardly weird layout. But as i said, there were no major complaints. My group rates this place a 5 based on service and drinks. We didn't eat here.

Hidden little gem that is much bigger than you would think. Great food menu and drink selection to fit all preferences.
