Stopped in for a beer and found out after ordering that we had to leave because we had "a baby...in a bar!" I just have to say that the staff was so gracious and kind about the whole thing. Not their faults...there are rules ya know? I would definitely like to revisit sans baby. Absolutely phenomenal ambiance. Huge beer selection. read more

Comfortable welcoming location with a terrific beer selection and a few mixed drinks. Live music downstairs, quieter rooms upstairs and a wonderful patio for larger groups. Friendly helpful bartender guided us through the wall of beer selections and served us we thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely worth your time to stop and relax. read more

Decided to check this place out for a date night after seeing all the awesome reviews on here. Boy we're we not disappointed not one bit. You walk into an old house not knowing what to expect and your immediately taken into a place where you feel like you should hear soccer fans yelling for there favorite team at the top of their lungs. And greated at the bar with thee best customer service at a bar ever. The guy explained everything in detail and was super kind. The bar menu was insane insane, please do check it out. The only minus was that we went on the first day of their new menu which wasn't all that extensive beyond their fantastic chips and queso. Oh yah and make sure you go out to the back patio and stay awhile you'll be glad you did! read more

GREAT outdoor backyard. Super collection of craft beers!! Every other Thursday Saucy Sicilian Pizza truck shows up!!! Really cool old house!! And they have live music some nights!! Try them!! read more

My number one spot when visiting Edmond. The food is great, atmosphere is outstanding especially out back on the huge patio. Always cozy, even when it's cool out as they run fire pits. Live entertainment in weekends. Service has been excellent every time. But my favorite part--the beer menu is second to none. Tons of awesome craft beer offerings from the top local breweries and more. HIGHLY recommend. read more

The Patriarch - Amazing vibes and great times with friends. Must try at least one of the seasonal drafts. Shoutout to Aiden! - Beer Bar Near Me - Edmond, Oklahoma

Didn't eat because the kitchen was closed so no input on that. Beers were mediocre but okay. Barkeep wasn't any help on beer menu and we ended up with beer we didn't care for. Place was kind of stuffy and pretentious. Probably never go back because there's way too many good breweries with friendly helpful staff. read more

Service was wonderful, and so was the food. We really enjoyed the entertainment The Rosenbalms! We will definitely return. read more

Fun atmosphere, often live music. They have yard games, so many beers to choose from, and also mixed drinks, if that's your preference. Food options as well in the side kitchen. We are never disappointed!! read more

I'm gonna go on the record right off the bat - The Patriarch is our hang. We're both 50 years old and my wife and I have going there for a few years now. It's the best place to just hang out in Edmond. I'm gonna break this down in categories and get a little wordy because, unlike most subjects, I have a strong opinion here. Atmosphere: They have several large picnic tables in the back yard. Some under the sky and many are under a large pergola. Small stage in the corner of the yard for the live music they have 3-6 nights per week. Also outside are three cornhole courts(?). Not being much of an athlete I don't play but if you're into sports the bean bags appear to be top notch. During the winter they have two large fire pits. Sitting around the fire is, in my opinion, the best experience at The Patriarch. It is never too cold for my wife and I to huddle around the fire in winter. If the weather keeps you indoors, the bar is in a century old two story house. There are a number of places to hang out in the house and enjoy the beer and food. Beer: They have around 45 rotating beers on tap at all times and the staff seems to know everything about every beer. They are happy to give free samples so that you know you'll enjoy your beer before you commit. The beers are numbered 1 thru 45 with the lower numbers indicating lighter beers and the higher numbers going with darker beers. My comfort zone is in the mid to upper twenties while my wife is solidly in the forties. Who knew? We've been to beer joints in other states and other countries and they do not compare to the selection and staff expertise at The Patriarch. Food: You order food inside and it is prepared in a building in the back yard. The food is fantastic! As a person who resists and fears change I settled on the fries years ago. They're sublime. So crispy and there are about five hundred of them in an order. I like mine with a side of ranch. But as an Oklahoman that should come as no surprise. We're loners so we like to get there when nobody else is around. On most evenings the place is full without feeling crowded. When the weather is awesome the place is packed and it's a full on party. Dogs: I'm a cat person and have never understood the attraction of dogs. We've considered bringing our cat, LaMarcus (see attached pic) but he's not wild about putting on a leash. The Patriarch is dog friendly. read more

The patriarch is a one of a kind establishment providing a robust selection of on tap beers highlighting local and other breweries making it a one stop shop for all the hottest local beers. They save you a long day brewery hopping. The seating is primarily outdoors with a couple fire pits and even yard games. It's a really great hang out spot for just a couple friends or an entire football team. They also offer a selection of food to satisfy your hungry friend who needs to eat every 35 minutes (cause let's face it, we all have that one friend). If you have the chance stop by, try some fun beers and chat with some strangers around the fire. read more

Such a great spot in a beautiful old Victorian house with a wide selection of beers on tap as well as whiskies and mixed drinks. I'm an IPA fan and there is always a wide selection. There is also a good selection of Oklahoma brewed beers. The have a short, but diverse bar menu. It's never left me disappointed. If you're Irish or wish you were, a number of musicians show up Monday nights and fill the place with Irish folk music. If you are looking for a quieter spot to visit, the upstairs has a few rooms to drink and chill. Outside you will find several tables, yard games and nice fire pits, and when the weather is nice, live music on select nights. read more

The Patriarch - Beer Bar Near Me - Edmond, Oklahoma

Really fun place for a light dinner and live music. Bluegrass in the night I went from local musicians. Food was good and atmosphere is laid back, relaxed and fun. A "must visit" if you're in the Edmond area. read more

Love that they have non-alcoholic beers ! Great atmosphere and ambiance. Very cool atmosphere too

I can't say enough about the atmosphere of this place. I can't wait to spend more time here and maybe come in the fall. We visited from Kansas City and I wish we had a place like this! The craft beer selection was great, the old house was fun to explore a little, the outside yard space was amazing. This was the last stop on our adventure through OKC breweries and tap houses and it was by far our favorite stop of the day! read more

Since we moved to Edmond in the middle of a pandemic, we haven't been out and about much. I'd never been to the Patriarch, and I really wanted to go, so the other day after our parent teacher conference, my husband and I stopped in for a beer, and I absolutely loved it. It felt like something you'd find in a little mountain town like Durango, not in the middle of downtown Edmond. It was a really cold day and everyone was bundled up, but it was nice and warm inside. I loved the creaky old house with all its character. I also loved the way the beer board is done: special attention is paid to the menu, and each beer is listed in its actual brand colors, font, etc. It's a small touch that probably takes lots of time to execute, and it makes a big difference. My husband and I both thought it really added to the charm. We will be back for food trucks, picnic tables, sunshine, games and more. I can see this being one of our favorite places to come in warmer weather months. They have so many options for beer, even though I don't drink much beer these days, I can see myself making an exception for this place. read more

Let's keep it simple. GREAT beer choices, GREAT bartenders, and GOOD food. Limited vegetarian options, but the fries were very tasty. This is the place to go if you can't decide where to get a drink, because they have an option for everyone! The staff is super helpful and will give you recommendations based on your preferences. Will definitely be a regular here :) read more

Love the huge selection of beer they have. They've got a selection that makes any craft beer enthusiast excited and cocktails for those that aren't quite as into beer. For those who are into beer, check-out their social media for news about tap takeovers and pint nights. The outdoor space is really great with fire pits and cornhole. It's a great space to bring a group of friends. Lots of seating, rooms, and board games to keep you entertained. read more

The Patriarch - Beer Bar Near Me - Edmond, Oklahoma

Perfect place to hang out with your dogs and friends. Very dog friendly, which I love. Large selection of beers on tap, and often live music. Downside -- no TVs for sports Why 4 ? Last time I went, when in hours for kitchen (at least 2 hours before kitchen close)... kitchen wasn't open. I stood in line for food (seeing people in the kitchen)... only for the server to let me know. Put up a sign, or post on social media It was very dissapointing and unexpected; and I had to go elsewhere with my pups. When they do have food it's good. read more

Fun place with a wide variety of beers. Can be overwhelming but the bartenders are patient at explaining. Outdoor patio is a big plus !!

Not sure what happened to the Oki-Yaki deal, but this new "Taco Hop" is just the worst... Literally the lamest excuse for nachos I've ever had. Cheese completely broken down and grainy. "Guacamole" runny as baby shite. You can do so much better than this. Also, while I'm on my soapbox, $1 an ounce beers are just stupid. I understand a high gravity beer should come in a smaller glass, but $8+ for an 8 oz beer is just crazy; name one other place in town charging those rates read more

The Patriarch - Broken down grainy "cheese" on nachos from 'Taco Hop' - Beer Bar Near Me - Edmond, Oklahoma

Was it because it was the first sunny day in a while? Was it because the cutest, friendliest dogs were out in force? Was it because we were waiting on Heard on Hurd? Was it because we needed to catch up with our people-watching (and each other)? Was it because we love The Patriarch? Whatever it was, that Saturday was PERFECT in the patio area. We snagged some chairs near the fire pit and proceeded to work our way through a couple of brews each. Food is offered, and since this was the Saturday before St. Pat's Day, the food had a holiday theme. Live music kept everyone happy, and the green theme was evident! The Patriarch boasts that they have recently opened Oklahoma's first Yakitori Restaurant, OK Yaki!, on their patio! Although we only wanted beer, we noticed there was always a line at the ordering window. read more

Atmosphere is great! Great location! Love all the selection of local Beers! The house is so unique to sit in all the rooms and or outside to have a good beer and visit with friends or in my case with my group of book club ladies. read more

This place is a great place to relax enjoy your time with friends. The drinks are great full of flavor and plenty of options. The service is top notch great people serving drinks. And the house is just such a cool novelty. read more

Great selection of beers and the BLT was delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. Great atmosphere too.

Great people (the employees and customers) and great beer. It's like having a beer on your own patio, but with better beer and extra neighbors! We've been customers since the opened and will keep coming back. read more

Amazingly friendly staff! Greeted with a smile and offered free samples of any beer on tap to aid in decisions. Patio was relaxing and quiet. They had giant Jenga, a ping pong table, a tv that probably comes out for local games, a small corner stage for live music, a secondary building for a bar when busier and Cornhole galore. Friend got a sour beer, currently 18 on their list and enjoyed it. I got the saint mixed drink and it was sweet but sweet mixed with a grapefruit fruity after taste. Strong without tasting like it. Parking lot for after 6 pm right next to the building. Eclectic mix of younger and older, especially considering the proximity to UCO. Prices are steeper than most younger college students are used to so don't think this place will get too rowdy. Will definitely be back for a post dinner drink, again. read more

I have only been here once, and it was right after they opened at 3:00 PM! Certainly did not disappoint though! Great selection of local beers, food in the rear area, plenty of tables outside, and plenty of seating inside! This place is in an old house, and it is very very cool! Have not tried the food yet, but service was awesome and everybody was very friendly! Only gave 3 stars because I haven't been there during the dark hours, or on the weekend. I also have not tried the food yet! Will update soon. read more

The Patriarch - Bar with beer listing - Beer Bar Near Me - Edmond, Oklahoma

Almost every time I'm in Edmond I make a stop at the Patriarch. They have a huge selection of different beers on tap and if beer really isn't your thing they have some wine for you as well! The Patriarch is an old two story house that has been beautifully renovated and it also has been tastefully decorated. The there's the outside/backyard which has tons of seating and a food truck! Not sure if it's always the same truck or not but I believe it's always been an Irish food truck. Both times that I had it it was delicious. Yum! In conclusion, this is a bar, that's located in an old (but newly renovated) house, that has tons of different beers, lots of seating (both inside and out) and there's (usually) a food truck outside! I'm a fan. So what's not to love? :D read more

Outstanding beer selection, very large outdoor area, and the indoor area has a cool old fashioned vibe. Bartenders were very helpful and their beer recommendations were spot-on. Great for a night if the weather is cool. read more

This is such a great spot to hang out and have a beverage with friends! They have tons of seating outside, so dress accordingly. There are games and a food truck. I recommend 10 out of 10 for a group hang! read more

Dear Yelp friends, The Patriarch is a treasure. We are so lucky to have it in Edmond. It's one of those places you can't wait to tell your friends about.  Inevitably, during the course of conversation while you and your pal(s) will be sipping on your brewskie (or waiting in line at one of the visiting food trucks)  and you will find yourselves plotting and planning your return visit--it happens to us all.  It's a really old house converted into your newest favorite bar. They have indoor and outdoor seating--it's not just a summer place, in case you were wondering. Yes, their backyard is the envy of the neighborhood, but don't miss out on The P. just because it's cold outside--they have indoor seating, too.  ---the cool--- It's a biergarten. A really cool, hip, casual, fun biergarten. If you are into craft beer or wanting to get your feet wet in the world of craft beer, the Patriarch should be your 1st stop in metro OKC. They serve about 50 taps of craft beer from all over the state and have taps from some of the hippest craft breweries in the country. Fear not friend, you will want-for-not when you step up to the bar to order, I promise. The folks who work the bar are so knowledgable, friendly, and patient. The great staff and huge beer selection are certainly two of the biggest reasons to keep coming back to The P.  ---the cooler--- I'd be remissed if I didn't share with you that The P. is a bar and they don't serve food. The cool thing is that they invite local food trucks to come and park out back. It's really convenient. It's a fun concept that, well, it just works. I've been there several times and had some really tasty food. Check The P.'s website calendar to know which of you favorite food trucks will be hanging out back when you are planning on heading over. They don't have food trucks every day, so plan accordingly.  ---the coolest--- I really LOVE their "backyard." When your out there it feels like you are at the coolest party on the block. They've got HUGE picnic table style seating. They've got ping pong tables, twinkle lights, and live music sometimes, too. The staff comes around and checks on how your doing. They can even bring you another drink, if that tickles your fancy. They've got some seating that is under a covered area so if it's too sunny or there's a chance for rain, they've got you covered ;).  ~~~ We all have at least one--opportunities for growth: I love the backyard area, but my only complaint is There needs to be some BIG A** oscillating fans. The darn flies can be too much to handle at times. If they had a few humongous fans that circulated the air it would cut down on the obnoxious fly issue I've experienced on hot days--more than once. And while we are on the wish list topic, it would be super cool if they added a bocce ball court. They have the room along the far back wall and I think it would be amazingly fun. We have them in a few outdoor biergartens in St. Louis. My friends and I have been known to pick a bar because they have a bocce ball court out back--don't judge. It's so much fun.  ---the bottom line--- The Patriarch is one of my favorite hangouts in OKC. If you like beer and food trucks my bet is that you'll love it too. Come join me, my friend, at one of the greatest treasures in Edmond. Let's celebrate life, good friends, good food, and great beer. read more

In the heart of dreaded edmond. Why do so many people hate driving through edmond? The house is so old and very cool. The floor plan is interesting, and the area they keep the kegs is interesting, and makes me wonder if it is considered a two or three story house. Huge lot. Lots of seating with comfy couches inside the house, and there are board games and a string hook game upstairs with more seating. The beer selection is phenomenal and consistently rotating. The house bar has different taps than the backyard bar. All kinds of beers: ale, lager, stout, ipa, double ipa, porter, saison, dunkle, nitro pours, and they have a great description for all of the different types above the bar if you're starting to get into beers. The backyard is super cool and reminds me of a family reunion or a biergarten. The have live music often and by local artists, ping pong table, and a couple of bags/cornhole games. A food truck and hot dog stand are usually on the east side of the house, and every time I've been there has been a different food truck. They also serve some whisky and wine, but they have no mixers in the house, so don't expect a cocktail. You might be able to bring some cola in to mix your own if you dare. Great place. read more

Great beer and whiskey selection. Friendly staff. Really enjoy the relaxed vibe. Mostly outdoor seating so be prepared.

We are headed there for our second visit. The ambience is so comfortable and the crowd as well. The bartender talked us through many of the beers we were interested in. It's is where i get excited to take friends to now. read more
