    a bar with wooden paneled walls

    This is becoming a neighborhood favorite! Great whiskey selection (obvs) and good food. The wings are great and we love that they have great entrees in addition to burgers and wings.

    Buffalo chicken wrap and loaded tots, pretty yummy!

    Really cool spot right around the corner from the beach. Came with a group of people to support a local band playing at the outdoor stage and we had a really good time! The stage is really big for an outdoor bar area and it felt like we were at a real concert. It gets very loud but we could still talk to each other. Service was a tad slower but nothing to complain about and our server was friendly too. We started off with the traditional wings with blue and gold sauce, which were messy/sticky but delicious! Nice subtly bbq flavor with actual bleu cheese chunks sprinkled on it. We also got the fried Buffalo chicken wrap with loaded tots on the side. I thought the wrap was decent but my fiancé did not like the warm soggy lettuce inside. Loaded tots with cheese and bacon are a must have, can't really mess those up! All and all we will definitely be back!

    Perfect spot to go grab some wings after a day on the lake... I've been here several times and just can not stop ordering the "Award Winning Blue & Gold Smoked Wings." I have had wings from a lot of places in Rochester and this one is by far my favorite!

    Have never had a meal there but I have attended a few musical events and the place was great. Enjoyed the atmosphere very much.

    Convenient to my parent's home when I visit Rochester but not a place I would return…read more Pros: + Great for groups. Ample space both upstairs and downstairs. + 2 of the 4 sours I had were decent. + Great for kiddos as they have an outdoor space that's family and dog friendly. It was very busy the day we went with a fun atmosphere outside. + Historic venue with a nice restoration for the brewery. The less great: + The setup means long waits. Having to wait in line for beers in a completely packed brewery with two bartenders is not a way to run a business. They need to consider a new strategy for ensuring they can accommodate the volume they are currently doing. + Had a bite of someone's burger and found it more or less inedible. + My parents had attempted to organize a large family gathering on the day we were there and while I wasn't involved in the planning, there seemed to be missteps and miscommunications along the way that weren't met with much empathy or customer service in mind. Too many great breweries in Rochester to waste time on spots that aren't going to ensure guest satisfaction. Great location though! This place is so, so busy it's obvious the east side isn't brewery saturated (somehow) quite yet.

    What a gem! If this is not the best brew pub in Rochester, I need to know, because Rising Storm…read moreBrewing is one of the best breweries I've been to in 26 states. First off, the food. Wow. The Detroit style pizza is phenomenal! Perfect crispy crust. I was there on a Friday but came back the next day to try the tomato pie as it was sold out on Friday. It was delicious! Think focaccia with tomato sauce and Parmesan cheese. So tasty! But what is brilliant is that of four pizzas, one rotates each week and changes. I had one of the rotating pizzas: pepperoni, banana peppers, garlic sauce, and honey. It bears repeating, wow! So great! The beers? There's something for everyone! So many hazy/New England IPAs and sours. Great seltzers too! The space is great with room for private parties. Such friendly staff. I hope to come back again before leaving!
