The noise level is pretty loud with music playing over speakers in the ceiling, the game machines, and people having a good time.

There's staff were slammed with customers, so we did have a significant wait to get our food. The place had a fun atmosphere, with outside seating and indoor garage-type seating. As far as gluten free food, there's a pretty limited amount of baked goods to eat. You can try your luck with the food trucks outside, but beware that they're pretty pricey. The Hawaiian food truck had nachos that were super disappointing gf (but I won't hold it against Frothy for this review). Not a bad place to relax, and they were accommodating to a large group. Their cider and beer list was pretty decent too. Minus one star for the limited gluten free options and the wait. Staff were very friendly though so I don't want that going unmentioned.

They need to go to Precarious and see how they do it. Their food is generally good to great. They have a $5 before 5 app and drink special menu that is a really good deal. Nice spot for adults to have some drinks. Just be patient as service is generally slow. Now onto my recent experience.... I suggested it to some friends who wanted to grab some beers on MLK day which was a Monday. There were 4 of us guys and 7 kids. It's a lot. I get it. They weren't overly busy. Maybe a quarter full. I tried to keep the kids away from other tables by giving them boundaries. They were not happy with us. They didn't like the kids being outside in their patio (freezing, no one out there) etc. The one server was getting destroyed. She had just like 6 tables, but a 16 top. I felt badly for her. Our drinks correspondingly took about 20-30 minutes each time we tried to order. She was nice when she could get to us. At one point a person who said they were a manager, I think she said her name was Hannah, came over and said the kids couldn't be going around (again, I had boundaries not by any other patrons etc. from what I could see they were honoring them, but who knows), anyway she asked if we could keep them by us, which is fine. I then asked her if I could put in a beer and app order as I had been waiting for our server with an empty beer for at least 20 minutes. Instead of taking the order and ringing it in, she said she'd send the server over and disappeared never to be seen again. 5 minutes Iater the server was able to get free from her big table and get our beer orders and food in. Several items were forgot, but at this point we were kind of over it. Just not really your typical relaxed brewery vibe. Felt like they wanted it to be more of a sit down restaurant. That big long story to say it's not a spot for kids. Overall food and drinks are solid. Beer is solidly middle of the pack for Peninsula. Management needs some work.

I stopped in for lunch with some co-workers and was greeted by a nice and friendly staff. The main parking lot is kind of small and was pretty full during lunch. It is easy to get in and out of. I ordered the G.O.A.T. burger which revved up all my tastebuds. The blueberry jalapeno BBQ sauce on the burger combined with goat cheese was a great balance between sweet, tangy and spicey. The fried jalapeno and bacon added some extra spice, crunch and saltiness. This burger is righteous. To wash down my burger and fries I selected the red ale, which is balanced and not hoppy tasting. I am a big fan of red ale if you are not a fan of overly hoppy beer.

The crust was seasoned well and it was just the right amount of cheesy. The patio view is always nice. The only thing i didn't like, was that you have to order at the bar versus the waitress coming to your table. I'm not sure if this is a regular thing, or if they did it that way because they were short staffed. One of the employees did come check on us a couple of times and she was super nice.

We came for a weeknight dinner and beer. Not too late. Maybe 6-ish at the latest and not a lot of people around. However, the entire front of the house was operated by one person. Host, waiter and bartender. When we arrived there were a few folks watching games at the bar and two tables. Us and a young family. Later it got a bit more crowded but the poor guy was juggling everything and doing it poorly. While the nachos were above average and the beer was beer, the service was abysmal. I'll try it again, but if they can't keep or afford staff, I'm a nope for a repeat of the experience. If you see one poor guy doing everything, get ready for a LONG wait. In fact, order another beer.
