The Casual Pint of The Grove

I love the burger. Always great food I get.

Krista gave fabulous service. Great beer and wine selection

Brunch Experience Feedback

I’d like to offer a few suggestions to enhance the brunch experience:
1. Music Volume & Selection: During our visit, loud rock music with profanity was playing. While I understand this isn’t a traditional brunch spot, softer, more toned-down music during brunch service could broaden your appeal.
2. Service Model: Requiring guests to order and pay at the bar and return for refills is inconvenient and disrupts the flow of the meal. Table service would create a more enjoyable and relaxed dining experience.
3. Meal Timing: Meals should be served to the table at the same time. During our visit, my husband received his food 20 minutes before mine, which detracted from our shared meal experience.
4. Live Music Coordination: Once the musician begins warming up, the overhead music should be turned off. The competing sounds were overwhelming and made it difficult to enjoy the meal.

On a positive note, the food was pretty good. However, the overall experience, especially considering the cost and lack of table service, makes the drive to other brunch options like First Watch more appealing. I do hope to hear of improvements in the future. It is always great to see local businesses in Hoover thrive.

The food was amazing and didn’t take very long for it to come out. Heavily recommend the pretzel with beer cheese dip and the American brat. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is very fun and energetic, they have the place very nicely decorated for Halloween.

It was alright. I doubt we will be back. For me, my husband, and our kiddo it was over $100. We did get 4 cans of beer to take with us. But that was $30 alone. Which is ridiculous. The chicken quesadilla was pretty good. I got the beer cheese Mac and bacon. It was disappointing if I’m being honest. My husband got the brats and he said they were pretty good. The dessert pretzels were lackluster. Honestly, the best thing my husband and I had was the sour patch kids sour beer. If we do go back it will be for the beer they have on tap alone.
