If you are paying by card they up charge you each time. Prices of the drinks are very inconsistent. The vending machine states to put your money in at your own risk. They have no problem taking the money but both the candy bar and chips got stuck and didn't fall. In my opinion the patron's deserve an establishment that is worthy of their hard earned money.

Well, as a visitor to Topeka a bartender from another bar suggested it to me and a friend. After…read morewe left he must of had a good laugh. This is a very dark social clique that if you aren't wearing all black, have at minimum 12 tattoos and 6 piercings you might stick out. Non the less we made our way to the bar after talking our way out of a $20 cover charge for a no name performer. Under the guise of we were only going to have one beer and use the bathroom. I have to admit atmosphere was respectful and bartender seemed amused we were brave enough to even be there. We had our beers, a few laughs with the bartender listened to some local talent opener dj's and then on our way. In my day this group were known as goth, today it's Emo. Bottom line we're all people and with a little mutual respect and humor, it's all good. Enjoy. Humanity shouldn't need a disclaimer, just be a good person. Cheers.

I came in late at night I get it. ordered two beers…read more literally was making conversation with the bar tender. asked why she was wearing nighttime slippers to work and she lost it. I don't even care it was a conversation starter. she kicked me out to make a long story short. I know it was late but I was trying to start a convo and she basically attacked me like I was a drunk dumb bitch. which I was not. So there was that. I wouldn't go back there if you paid me. reminds me of the spot. We get it your untouchable bartenders you want tips but want to be assholes. mind it I already paid my tab early and gave a good tip so now I dont matter and you want to kick me out. what a joke this place is. there were literally 3 people there. this place is whack bro

This review is for lunch at the bar for two on a Saturday in mid-August…read more service: Both bartenders were helpful and professional. Hostess and food runners were enthusiastic. Everyone seemed to enjoy working there. bar: Because it was daytime drinking, I went with Hops and Harmony, their session IPA ($6 as of 08/2026). It's a solid low IBUs IPA. Their beer list covers most styles and has something for everyone. We saw a handful of cocktails going out and they all looked well made. food: Restaurant was on brunch menu; however, there are plenty of traditional lunch offerings. The standard breakfast fare looks wide-ranging and pretty awesome. I went with High Rail Burger - which is supposed to be a double smash burger - and fries ($13 as of 08/2026). It wasn't a typical, griddled, thin, lacey-edge smash burger, but it was still a very solid offering. Extra credit for excellent fries. My wife chose a half order of biscuits and gravy ($3! Can that be right?) and it was really great. details: Bright, big, open space with inside tables, outside tables, and bar seating. No wait at 1:30 on a Saturday. We parked on the street and there is a garage around the corner.

Oh my, my MY!!! I have to get stuck right in...GO lickety-split to this establishment!!…read more We went here on a Wednesday and it was luck of the draw! The interior is filled with murals representing Kansas and wonderfully done. The food a gastronomic delight...especially if you love BBQ and down-home cooking. My husband enjoyed his "Three Pigs" and the fried okra would make every southern Nanny proud! My smoked turkey was smoked and NOT laden with salt, as some that I have eaten at other places. Our server, Gabby, was so friendly, knowledgeable, and professional! She was such a joy! So, as soon as your office or work from home is finished, gallop on down to the Brewer and see for yourself! You won't be disappointed!

They have a full bar, and free popcorn in small bags in the popcorn machine. There are some TV's for sports, a jukebox and a nice little patio.
