    Chips and queso
    Travis And Elizabeth N.

    We had stopped by to try the beer glad we did, this is now one of our local places. Good food, excellent staff very friendly. We enjoyed sitting by the kitchen We got a glimpse of everything coming out and are excited to head back soon. Tried many of the beer some were good and some fantastic. Great experience here are a few pictures. Travis

    Shrimp tacos
    Khiem H.

    I'll start off saying the food here is surprisingly good for a bar. The pork rinds and shrimp tacos were great, I'd skip the pizza though. The service amazing. There's plenty of seating and super chill. I'd comeback again when I'm in the area.

    Wings, hot sauce ( also comes with ranch), brussel sprout slaw

    Location Downtown Denton-near transit center Parking Large open lot Atmosphere Local brewery/restaurant Seating "Lounge" with couches, comfy seats, games, hi tops, tv's, and games/pool tables. General seating-bar, tables, booths. Covered patio low tables and seats. Service Very attentive and friendly-so many servers! Menu Appetizers, burgers, pizza, salads, desserts. Happy hour menu with food and beverages. Full bar-so many beers. We had the wings and Brussel sprout slaw. The wings are AMAZING-have a sweet flavor-like honey-slightly spicy. Best wings in the DFW. The slaw was such a generous serving-sliced finely-light dressing-not saucy. The dessert menu was so tempered ting. We had the brownie with rocky road ice cream-delish! Soft and warm. Really good-topped with a rolled cookie. Summary Our first time at Union Bear. Fantastic from start to finish. Friendly and attentive service, outstanding atmosphere, great food-lots of choices! See you there!

    Went to the place on a Sunday night for dinner and it was pretty impressive overall. First off the service that night was great, our server knew what he was doing and was great with us. Food wise you can tell everything is made fresh and overall was delicious. This place was great especially for dinner since the ambiance was nice but also chill.

    UB continues to be the best spot in Denton. It's great for family dinners, great for happy hours, great for watching a game. The service is unmatched - friendly, fast, fun, personable. The food is always good - high quality, well made, always the same high standard. The beer is, of course, the best thing about this place! Try all the draft beers you can!

    Food was phenomenal! Service was quick and friendly. Aline was the best! Great food and drink recommendations. We loved everything about our visit! Super busy- it's Dance Nationals weekend! A little loud like a pub, but fun! Inside and outside seating. We sat inside at a high top table that was split with another party. Worked out just fine.

    The outside is unassuming but don't let that fool you. The food inside goes hard. There were a few things I would definitely recommend above others- like the Mediterranean plate and the fish and chips. The Korean shrimp tacos were also delicious but the side of chips and queso throws off the plate a little bit. The service is awesome and the staff really knows their menu and beers well so the recommendations are top notch.

    Skinny Bear

    Such a great location - so spacious inside & options to sit outside & enjoy the fresh air. Heaters avail too. Great service & fresh, delicious food & bev options. Chose a Falafel Burger & Chicken Sandwich (added bacon) both were huge & came with fries. Also enjoyed the Skinny Bear & a cold tasty ale. Both were so good & we'll most certainly be back!

    I think I owe you a personal visit: I am sure that I have contacted you when you bought our Original Denton beer brewing company: I think it's basically a matter of financial backing take over, by purchase on the old Armadillo Ale Works Brewing Company; I applaud you on the vital acquisition and hope that your business is safe in Denton business community and pledge to support your own operations our Dallas, Fort Worth and other Metroplex Area. Stay cool and be blessed, in Jesus's holy name, Amen Cheers, Mark C. Fearing, Ph.D.

    Green Chili Dusted Pork Rinds
    April T.

    Found this treasure in Denton while shopping with a friend! We enjoyed our appetizer, the pork rinds! They were so crispy but also melted in the mouth! And the accompanying sauce was delicious, also. I enjoyed the Brussels-Slaw with grilled shrimp and am already looking forward to returning and enjoying it again!! Our waitress was very patient and helpful!!

    Wow! My husband and I were in Denton for an event, and we decided to go to Union Bear Brewery afterwards for dinner. We were so happy that we did! The reimagining of the previous brewery was beyond our wildest dreams! Union Bear's atmosphere was lively and fun! The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Their beers were flavorful and with lots to choose from. And the service was exemplary! Even on a busy Saturday night! We loved it here, and we can not wait to return soon! A couple of hints...you can join their seating wait list on Open Table ahead of time. Also, be sure to check out their cool merchandise like tin signs and six packs to go!

    Nice restaurant. Our last night visiting our daughter and son in law. We like to try new places when we visit them in Providence Village. Pizza looked awesome, I had Cesar salad, hubby and daughter had the pasta. I tried it. I liked it and I'm picky. World definitely go again. Wait staff was great.

From the moment we walked in until the end of our evening, the experience was absolutely exceptional. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and host, both of whom wished us a happy anniversary and immediately escorted us to our table. To our surprise, the table had been beautifully decorated with rose petals such a thoughtful and special touch that instantly set the tone for the evening. Our server, Adam, greeted us shortly after and walked us through the specials, again wishing us a happy anniversary. We ordered a special appetizer, the octopus, steak, fresh bread, and margaritas. Everything was incredibly delicious. The margaritas especially impressed me I'm not a big drinker and tend to be very picky about cocktails, but it was perfectly balanced and so enjoyable. Throughout our meal, we were checked on regularly, both by our server and by the owner, Phil. Adam went above and beyond to ensure our drinks were always full and that we had everything we needed. It was also wonderful to see Phil personally checking on guests, clearing plates, and staying actively involved in the dining room. It's rare to see an owner so hands-on and genuinely engaged with customers. We finished the evening with crème brûlée for dessert, which was absolutely amazing and such a generous surprise when it was gifted to us in celebration of our anniversary. The entire night felt thoughtful, personal, and memorable. Outstanding food, exceptional service, and an owner who truly cares. We will absolutely be returning and highly recommend Hannah's for any special occasion.

To be clear, I celebrate the Denton fusion; it's one of my fave things about gems like Picone & Komodo Loco- the cuisine cannot be found anywhere else. Picone's chicken cutlets = mind blowing. The Piccata is my fave, but you really can't go wrong with any of their chicken parms. Their menu is fairly simple - no Cheesecake Factory novel to read. Check their website because they change their menu frequently. I love that they do this. Many things are staples but I've never been mad for choosing something new. Besides piccata, my partner likes the smash burger. I love the burnt carrots. Their focaccia pizza was outstanding. We like the potatoes and the Cesar salad, but they're outshined by the rest of the menu so we rarely get them. My recommendation: get a chicken parm of your choosing & one of their specials. Then share with one of your peeps. (The cutlets are the size of your head). Now let's talk staff and service. I have never ever had bad service there & have thoroughly enjoyed all interactions with staff. I feel like everyone really likes being there & cares about what they do. Go in with joy and joy will be returned to you. Ambiance: You order at the counter when you walk in. They'll give you a number and you sit wherever. It's super-casual, kinda small-ish hole-in-the-wall in the best way. It's always been doing a brisk business when we've gone. Be aware that the back room can get loud because of acoustics so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to it. There is limited onsite parking, but ton of street parking all around. I think that covers it. :) Enjoy!!

People seemed to love Picone, so we went! Interesting place. Small and casual. There is a counter at the front, and on the counter is a board which shows the menu. We were told we could take a picture of the menu with our phones, sit down and peruse it, or just go ahead and order. We ordered, were given a number card to place on our table, and the food was brought to us. MIL and I got the chicken parm, and SIL got the chicken piccata. SIL and I thought our meals were delicious. MIL said her chicken was overcooked and she didn't enjoy it. (She also didn't like that there were no printed menus, but she's 87 and likes things how she likes them.) The chicken parm comes with "Sunday Sauce," which they told me is marinara. To me, it was spicier than marinara, and I really liked it. The portions were very large, and I took most of my food home with me. I didn't notice if they offered desserts or not. In Boston we have great Italian food, and I hadn't found that in Denton - until now. This was surprisingly good food and I would definitely return.
