Very nice brewpub. It's in an old rail station by the museum. Cool vibe to the place. You line up…read morethe ramp and a server helps you at the tablet. Great beers on tap. I liked that I could add some fruit flavoring to the sour. My husband enjoyed the hefe. We were there on a Sunday so had their brunch offerings. Burrito was delicious, big portion, good ingredients. Large side portion of breakfast potatoes. The French toast sammich was great. Had leftovers to take home bc it's just such a big sammich. Again came with a good portion of potatoes. My son had a cheeseburger and oranges. He loved it. We enjoyed that we could bring our son along and they have board games and toys to help entertain him. They also offer a crowler (32oz can) version of beer of your choice. So we grabbed one of each of our beers to go. Really enjoyed being able to have some to go. Really enjoyed our brunch at this place and look forward to going back.

As if all this wasn't enough, wood fired pizzas are also available! And their dough is delicious with that little pillowy stretch to it. It makes for a mouthwatering pairing.

She did a good job of managing several tables' needs. -Philly cheesesteak was pretty good, I'd give it a 6/10 -truffle fries were DELICIOUS. Very garlic-y in the best way -chili cheese fries were good Only complaint: -my friend wasn't a fan of the brisket grilled cheese bc she said the brisket was a little too fatty and not the 'melt in your mouth' kind of fat, but 'chewy hard to swallow' kind of fat Overall good experience!

YUM! We stopped in for what I thought would be a light dinner but I did not realize the portion…read moresizes or the flavor would keep me eating more than i intended. My husband and I split the nachos, and I ordered the tomato bisque and grilled cheese. The nachos were HUGE - like 6 people could have easily shared them - but they were so good, completely loaded with cheese, salsa, pickled onions and jalapenos, beans, and grilled chicken. We barely put a dent in them but not for lack of trying. The grilled cheese and soup were also really tasty. I wish I was less full and able to enjoy it more. Our server was great, and the outside area is lovely. I definitely want to try more of their alcoholic options, and other food options, next time I am in the area.

There was one beer is did not care for (and I'm not normally one to leave beer behind) and the bartender noticed and let me choose another beer which I really appreciated. There were a few food items, but that's definitely not their bread and butter, so I opted for elsewhere for dinner. The vibe is pretty chill. They have a few TVs so watching the college World Series and the World Cup was nice! Definitely recommend for an afternoon beer in downtown Roanoke.

I can't quite recall if I had a favorite but would stop back by if we were ever in the area again.

We know this place all too well. We went here when this place was just the original small building…read more We come here every time we visit out to Devil's Backbone and its just a staple to always visit. The food and beer are pretty solid and facility is on point. The only issue that keeps this place from being a solid 5 is the customer service. Sometimes the servers are just not all 'there'. Either being super slow, not really attentive, or just not really caring, the training in this area is inconsistent. Overall, we know we'll keep coming out here for the good food and beer as that has always been a winner.
