I really liked their sour! The prices are also not bad at all! The food you order via QR code and it's a little confusing because everything says you will go pick it up but our food just kept being delivered. Maybe we were special? Idk. But that was good service. The food was hot so I know they just prepared it, but it's nothing special. It feels like decent snacks to pair with your beers and keep people staying...and honestly I'm not mad about it. I tried the chips/cheese, chicken tenders and fries and a friend had the chicken flatbread. The flatbread seemed like the best of the bunch.

It is located in a small building on US 41 near Land O'Lakes. I thought it was cool that Central Pasco had their own independent home brewing store but I figured it wouldn't be a place I would visit because I'm not a beer drinker. I am, however, a kombucha drinker. And when I decided to keg and force carbonate my own "buch", Afford-a-Brew became just the type of place I needed. As I was working through the process of kegging, I ran into some issues. I Googled what went wrong and thought I needed some pieces so I paid a visit to Afford-a-Brew. I explained my situation and setup to the employee and he said that it sounded like I really didn't need any pieces. He thought I had everything I needed already at home. He talked me through the issue I was having and I left the shop without buying anything. I appreciated that Afford-a-Brew could've sold me a lot of stuff I didn't need but they didn't. So when my CO2 tank leaked out and I really did need some components, I didn't hesitate to head back to Afford-a-Brew. This time I walked out with a full CO2 tank and some keg gel in case I had another leaking issue. I also, again, was provided guidance about what to look for to find the leak. Even more than the CO2 tank, gel and advice was the encouragement the man working the counter offered me. He could sense my frustration and he told me "Don't worry about it. It happens to everyone. Even big time beer places with people who know what they are doing lose carbonation some times." So, while Afford-a-Brew is definitely a great place to visit for all the home brewing accessories that someone might need, it is the information and encouragement they provided that really made this business a five star one.

I was craving a good steak and came across this casual, laid back steakhouse. After reading several…read morereviews praising their beer cheese and pretzels, I knew I had to find out for myself. I made a reservation, but when I arrived, only a few people were sitting at the bar, so I practically had the entire dining room to myself. Phyre is located on a quiet street just steps away from St. Cloud City Hall. The décor features black velvet booths, black chairs, and marble tables. It isn't fancy, but it has a cool, modern vibe. They even had a huge Christmas tree still on display, decorated in preparation for the Fourth of July, which definitely caught my attention. Allie was my host and server, and she was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout my visit. Every restaurant needs a Allie. She was amazing! If Phyre management reads this, she needs a raise. I mean absolutely wonderful service! I started with what they call the "Our Fashion" cocktail and their famous pretzels served with beer cheese . The cocktail was enjoyable, and I can see why the pretzels get so much attention. They were soft, warm, and fresh. I would have preferred a little less salt, but then again, it wouldn't really be a pretzel. The cheese sauce could have been hotter, but it was flavorful and paired well with the pretzels. For my entrée, I ordered the surf and turf featuring filet medallions, three crab-stuffed shrimp, and a side of garlic mashed potatoes. The food arrived surprisingly quickly, which I appreciated. The filet medallions were cooked to a perfect medium and had a nice slight crisp on the outside, although they weren't quite as hot as I would have liked. It was served towith a delicious wine sauce that really elevated the dish. The crab stuffed shrimp were flavorful, and the garlic mashed potatoes were a great complement to the meal. Overall, I enjoyed my Sunday dinner at Phyre. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the food delivered a satisfying steakhouse experience. I'd definitely return to try more of the menu.

Hard to describe this place. It was decorated like an old time speakeasy. There was a pianist doing Billy Joel songs which was quite good. And the patrons here were top notch.

Had the short ribs and it came with rosemary and garlic mash and brussels. Can't believe how very delicious this was and it was 5 star quality and worth every penny of it's $36 price. One of the best meals I have had in months. The bananas foster cheese cake is to die for. Actually everything was great. The food, drinks and such friendly service. So in love with Phyre Brewery & Tavern. Crystal and Kristen were our bartenders. Kristen made a smoked old fashion which was awesome. It was a little on the sweet side, but definitely awesome. See the videos. They also have a Clydes old fashioned which is garnished with their phyre bacon. Aubrey and Allie were taking care of the tables, but got to meet them too and they were awesome.
