    My husband and I went for lunch/happy hour and it was lovely. We originally tried one of their…read morebeers at another establishment and found out Meadowlark Brewery was in the same town! Had to try it. Faith was such a great help when we came in. She had answers for everything we had questions on. She even helped us select our flights based on our preference of ales. We actually came in for burgers and I forgot to take pictures because we were so hungry. They were delicious! Well, my husband saw another table order the pretzel so he said he MUST have one too. It was delicious! It's a great little brewery to check out. All the drinks we tried were great. I even started mixing some and made them even better. It was such a chill vibe and we're definitely coming back soon.

    Here's my experience: I came in on a Friday evening around…read more6:15. The restaurant was about 65% full, so it wasn't slammed. I was seated in plain sight....easily visible to all five of the young waitresses working that evening. Over the next several minutes, I watched them serve food, refill waters, and check in with other tables around me. Not once did any of them acknowledge me. No "someone will be right with you," no "we're a little behind," not even eye contact or a smile. Nothing. It was as if I was completely invisible. I gave them the benefit of the doubt...maybe they were overwhelmed or distracted. So I waited. But then, three of them gathered behind the bar to chat and regroup. They saw me sitting there and even asked each other out loud, "Has anyone helped that table?" They looked confused, shrugged it off, and went right back to their conversation. Still, no one came over. No one claimed responsibility. I didn't even get a glass of water. I sat there for nearly 10 minutes. Not a word. Not a glance. I finally got up and calmly walked out. Several nearby guests actually gave me sympathetic looks--they could see what was happening too. And here's the kicker: I had plenty of time to look through the menu, and honestly, the prices felt a bit high for what was being offered. Nothing jumped out or made me eager to order. Maybe that was because I was starting to feel dehydrated from the lack of water. For the record, I'm just an average guy, clean and respectful, fresh out of the shower with a spray of cologne. I wasn't rude, disruptive, or hard to miss. Bottom line: I felt completely dismissed and ignored. I won't be coming back. Best of luck to the team--I hope service improves for future guests
