    Best bar in Ithaca. Free popcorn, friendly people, not bad prices, and unpretentious.

    Personal Best Brewing - Really loved their logo and again the clean contemporary vibe

    Personal Best Brewing

    Local friends brought me and my partner here while we were visiting from out of town and we had a…read moregreat time. They come here pretty often, love craft beer, and this is their favorite brewery. The space is large, and bright, with a bit of an industrial touch to the architecture. There is indoor and outdoor seating. This is a nice spot to get together with friends and we saw kids running around too. There is shuffleboard, bean bag toss, and another game I wasn't familiar with. There is a BBQ restaurant inside too, which you order separately from the alcoholic drinks. The bathrooms are gender neutral single stalls. (They had period products available in a little basket.)

    This was a pretty sweet brewery when you walk in your greeted by what I believe is shuffleboard…read more And although I have never played, it was pretty cool to see an active shuffleboard community. The furnishings on the one side of the bar part are very cool and mid-century modern looking. There are a couple food trucks outside. We weren't there for food however we were just there for a drink and to check out the space. Dog friendly, which is always a plus for dog owners and there were people there celebrating birthdays, playing board games or just hanging out at the bar. It was a sweet cool vibe and can't wait to come back and check out the food trucks and taste more of their fantastic brews. Did I mention how cool the mid-century modern contemporary vibe furniture was?

    This is one of my favorite places to come for good food, good vibes, and good beers. I'm a little…read moreindecisive so I always get a flight to try a few because they have a large list to choose from and you can try 4 with their flights. We went a little after they opened and it was a great time because it wasn't too busy. Any time I drive by the parking lot is full. They have parking in the front and around the right side of the building. I tried the Meier's Creek Choccy Milk, Other Half BA 10X Bananaversary, TALEA Beer Hibiscus Splash, and Allagash Allagash White and I enjoyed all of them. The bathrooms were clean and easy to find and I can't wait to go back in the spring/summer to check out their outside seating because they have about 15 tables. They also host a game night and have live music. Definitely a hotspot in the Ithaca area.

    I stopped by Brewer's the other day, a place I hadn't been in years, and it was a pleasure to see…read morehow they've evolved since their debut. The food menu is now several pages long, including tried-and-true favorites (many gourmet burger varieties, chicken sandwiches (with a Nashville Hot style option), nachos, wings, and salads . . . plus more intriguing fare like kimchi tater tots, a tuna poke bowl, and pork belly burnt ends. The inside has a gorgeous polished wooden bar in the middle for socializing; and while the inside can get crowded at peak times, keep in mind there's an enormous beer garden out back with about 15 picnic tables. And with a well-curated selection of two dozen beers on draft, you're sure to find something you like. But here's the amazing part about my visit: despite it being a weekend evening at the height of the dinner rush, our food came out in less than 10 minutes. And it was SO YUMMY. So keep in mind that, even if the parking lot looks full, there's almost always plenty of room out back. The two folks on the wait staff we interacted with were super nice, down to earth, and did a great job. The ordering process is a little confusing at first if you haven't been there, but the staff members was really helpful at walking us through it. Bottom line: Brewer's is the kind of neighborhood joint that's all too rare in these parts. Highly recommend!
