They offer local handcrafted beers, wines, ciders and other beverages. The food menu has a nice selection of delicious sounding comfort foods, snacks and appetizers. We couldn't resist checking them out during my wine tasting birthday tour by having a few beers and sharing a combination appetizer plate. Each choice from the menu is $6.00. Joe K and my brother-in-law are the beer drinkers of the family while my sister and I are the shoppers, as we ducked into the connecting, adjacent boutique to browse and gaze at all the hand made items, clothing, artwork and jewelry. This pub and winery knows how to make a patron feel welcome and appreciated! They were the only ones who wished me a happy birthday!

It is tradition for my family and I to stop at Apple Hill on our way home from camping every year…read moreand this year was no different. After visiting Boa Vista, we decided to check out HWY 50 Brewery for a quick snack. The inside was pretty big and they also had a nice shaded patio area with misters going. Dogs were welcome too! We ordered the Pepperoni and Pineapple Pizza, Garlic Fries and Chicken Strips. It also came with 4 different homemade dipping sauces that were very good. I enjoyed all 3 items - they all had great taste and were cooked to order. Bathrooms were clean and staff were also very friendly! Overall, HWY 50 Brewery is a great place to hang out and I believe they also have live music on some days. We had a great time and will definitely be back next time we are in the area. Check them out!

Stopped by Highway 50 Brewery after spending the day at Apple Hill. I found this place through a…read moreGoogle search and saw a lot of great reviews especially people talking about the pizza so we figured we'd stop in for a quick bite and try some local brews. Well... our "quick stop" definitely changed the rest of our plans. When we ordered, we were warned that the food might take "a while." Totally understandable it was Labor Day weekend and the place was busy. What we didn't expect was an hour and a half wait for our food. Seriously, it was well over an hour. Thankfully, the brewery itself is a nice place to hang out. We ordered a flight, sampled several local brews, and ended up ordering more drinks while we waited...and waited. The patio is relaxing and the views are beautiful, so at least we had a good place to kill some time. You could definitely feel the frustration building around us, though. Other guests were getting hungry and wondering where their food was too. From what we could see, the kitchen appeared to have only a couple of people working, so they may have simply been understaffed for the holiday crowd. After 1.5 hours, our 18-inch pepperoni and sausage pizza finally arrived. Unfortunately, after that kind of wait, I was expecting something amazing. It was pretty mid. The ingredients and flavor were decent, but the center was extremely soggy we actually had to eat parts of it with a fork. The fries, on the other hand, were hot and crispy. The biggest disappointment wasn't necessarily the pizza; it was losing 1.5 hours of our day waiting for it. We had other Apple Hill adventures planned, and that delay basically pushed everything else back. Great patio, beautiful setting, and we enjoyed trying the local brews. But based on this experience, I wouldn't come back for the food unless I could see that the kitchen was fully staffed and moving. Maybe we caught them on a bad Labor Day, but for this visit, it's a pass for me.

The food options are coming from food trucks so it varies depending on when you go. The customer service at the front was great. Super friendly people. The person in the back seemed like she was having a bad day so we gave her some grace. The whole atmosphere is great. We loved that the cellar was designed like a cave. The front was set up like a beer garden. We definitely would come here again. One last thing, all the bathrooms were broken so you had to treck down to the driveway to use a blue porta pottie. The only suggestion I would make is while the doggie they have as their logo is adorable as heck I think they might be happier if they used our dog instead. Totally joking of course, please don't take me seriously!!

There are plenty of beers, ciders, and other options to choose from, so it is easy to find something for just about every taste. My favorite was the West Coast Pilsner.

Great beer, good food options, and a fun casual setting. Definitely worth a stop, and I would happily come back for another West Coast Pilsner.

Besides being a great bar it also caters to families. The server here was excellent. She was genuinely very friendly, had great suggestions, and checked in on us just the right amount of times through the dinner. My wife and I shared a few dishes. The nachos here were different, but really fun and flavorful. They use kettle chips and put a kitchen sink of toppings on it. It's creamy, spicy, and the meat on it is very tender. My wife loved the Berry salad, and I also enjoyed the Bahn Mi Tacos. The Bahn Mi tacos had a Korean style pork on them that was very tender and juicy. The slaw on the side added a good crunch. My daughter had a kids cheese pizza and a hot dog. She was very happy!

We chose to wait and we received such a friendly and welcoming experience from start to end despite how busy they were. I appreciated our host's transparency about appetizers coming out at the same time as our entrees because their kitchen was slammed. We were totally okay with that and were immediately excited to eat the food once it got to us. It was just as delicious as it looks in pictures. Appetizers that we ordered: - Spam Musubi 5/5 - Hawaiian Style Poke 3.5/5 (it tasted very fresh but was very overstated. We still enjoyed it) Entrees: - Paniolo Burger with extra bacon and avocado 5/5 - Mahi Mahi sandwich 4.5/5 For drinks, my partner had their latest west coast IPA and I had a cider from a local place that was a bit too sweet for my preference. We sat outside since we had our two dogs and their outside patio is dog friendly. Overall, experience was a 5/5 for us and we will definitely be back to experience Tropics again when we are in the area. It's nice to have this as an option over the abundance of American food there seems to be in the area.

I have to say that a big part of this review as well was just how hellishly hot the restaurant was, if this is normally what you keep your thermostat to, y'all gotta be trying to really bring the island summer inside... I think I wetted my chair with sweat. But let's talk food, coconut shrimp were fine but just seemed like the normal run of the mill frozen bag, the bummer was the sauce, sauce for coconut shrimp to me should always be orange based, this was straight up a bottle of Mae Ploy Sweet Chili in a ramekin. The Crispy Sweet and Tangy beef, had an good texture but the flavor itself was really boring, again funny enough appeared to have Mae Ploy Sweet Chili dumped on top, it's really easy to make these sauces in house and make them unique. I was not able to taste the tacos, but my fried was NOT a fan, said the sauce was way off of what a fish taco should be and the fish was not blacked, that much was clear. Blackened means black y'all, crank up the heat and lay on the spice. Last thing was the Chicken Karrage, again ok texture, crunchy chicken but also chewy. The bummer was no sauce, whatsoever. Chicken Karrage has a specific sauce you would think it comes with, if not that the something unique. best we could do was the sauce from other our dishes, and soy. Come on again y'all, put some love into your menu. Little Sriracha Aoli would have made us happy there.

Wouldn't come here, I'm wondering if they are rude to people from out of town on purpose. Next time I would just put a sign up that visitors will not be welcomed and treated poorly. The girls working were so unbelievably rude. After the snarky "what do you want" at the start of the night, that should have been our sign to leave. The service was very slow, they were busy but met with attitude every time we got another round. At the end of the night we got our bill and luckily someone in our group caught that we were charged $25 for a trucker hat which none of us requested to purchase. We brought this to the girl's attention and her response was "well that's why I told you to check the bill." In a sarcastic and rude voice. I strongly believe based on this interaction that they charge unsuspecting out of town visitors for their merch and hope that people won't notice and then they just pocket the money? We then asked for a receipt which we never received.... Shady. I really cannot get over how rude the staff was and can't wait to try other places in Murphy's and never return to this establishment. Pretzel was yummy though. So they get two stars just for the pretzel.

Parking was a headache. Especially factoring in our visit happening on Labor Day weekend, there was a ton of foot traffic. Designated parking spots were all filled and the parking garage further down was just as packed. It took many attempts before we were able to locate someone leaving the premises. The check in and wait for a table was just as bad in the eatery. I used the time to look over the menu. Here you will find classic American comfort foods and fancier items with an elevated twist. There is essentially something for everyone. Lunch for our party: *BALSAMIC BRUSSELS SPROUTS *MIXED GREENS SALAD WITH BLACKENED SALMON *GRILLED LAMB CHOPS *KID'S CHICKEN TENDERS WITH VEGGIES Food was pretty good. The lamb chops were exceptional and although the blackened salmon didn't taste or look so delicious, I appreciated it not being overcooked. The chicken tenders were a nice golden brown and was not over battered and the medley of fresh veggies were really good. The balsamic brussels were good in size but the flavoring wasn't the best. All in all, the food was enjoyed. The one mishap that stood out was with Tessa H. forgetting my toddler's drink. We were half way through our meal when I realized nothing had been brought out to us even after the drink order had been taken. We flagged her down and let her know but ended up having to remind her 2 additional times before receiving the drink. At that point, the meal was already over. 4 stars overall but 1 star deducted because of the soda situation.
