Good Word Brewing & Public House

Very nice brewery! It feels more like a restaurant I'd say, as the food is made in-house with quite a large menu. I don't drink beer, so I can't comment on the drinks, but we did order a variety of food. The parker house rolls were very good! And reasonably priced. The burger was well prepared, and the double-stacked patty was nice to see as it felt like a great serving of meat (I hate thin burgers). The fries were hot and fresh. My only complaint, and the reason I deducted a star, is my entrée (the grilled trout) came out significantly later than everyone else's food, which was a bummer as I was the only one not eating. And I received no apology or compensation for the late food. Maybe just an "off" day for kitchen. Everything else was well enjoyed.

Went one night during burger week. They were selling the free give away burger week stickers for $2 and the buttons for $3. Pretty crappy thing to do. It also took forever just to get drinks at our table. Thumbs down.

Went today for lunch, took 15 minutes after we were sat to get any acknowledgment and get water. Another 20-25 minutes for her to take the order then 45-50 minutes to get food. Beef sandwiches were good but the fries were cold and laying around awhile. Downtown Duluth Restaurants just do not deliver. Poor service and below average food.

Good Word is a really chilled place to tey out new beers and have great conversation.

This place apparently requires for US IDs to serve alcohol, passports or international IDs are not valid (like nobody else in the world is a valid human except for Georgia/US locals)... so if you are a foreign visitor and happen to be around for a beer, be ready for segregation…
Our US hosts managed to get a table and service, food was good, beer was okay, service and atmosphere quite uncomfortable. You do not feel welcome.
There are lots of breweries in ATL, so save yourself from this experience.

Additional note after the Good Word reply: My Spain passport was not good enough for the bartender, he asked for a US passport specifically, that is why I stated that foreigners are not welcome. It might be a city law, I understand, but then it is not only this place but the whole city not welcoming non US people. That does not make my review a “bogus” review, it happens to be the truth… I managed to get a beer after my US host bought it for me, bartender and waiter knew I did not have a US ID. Isn’t that against the law, then? Anyway… lots of good beer in ATL midtown area :)

Upscale pub place. They have plenty of games. Really enjoyed their cider rotation of blueberry and peach. Didn’t know they make their own beers. The fries are good and go very well with their gochuchang and aioli sauces, albeit the sauces cost extra. Their banana pudding was also great, not too sweat or too banana-y.

First time. Very nice and upscale vibe for a brewery. Really enjoyed their beer. Dark Embers and Penelope were two favorites. Wings were good and hand cut fries were yummy. Tho given wrong wings, were supposed to be lemon pepper wet , they weren’t wet. We were given a wrong beer on our flight, the server said she’d check with our waiter but never returned. Beers on the flight were out of sequence. But overall a nice upscale brewery option for those who want to spend a bit more. For party of four: flights and food about $150.00.

Nice find in suburban Atlanta.

Stopped by and had a rather delicious and filling brisket Sandwich.
Heaping pile of brisket cubes, lettuce, tomato, cheese. And fries with an awesome garlic dipping sauce on the side.

Of course, I had two beers...
The Dark Embers... perhaps a smoked lager? and an pale ale.

Can't say that I preferred one over the other. Both were solid. Would have loved to taste whatever was in the cask. But it was empty when I stopped by.

Really like drinking a few quality beers on site and then taking a few for the road.

Nice looking spot in Duluth. Should have taken a quick tour instead of just drinking and eating at the bar.

Microbrewery with excellent selection of different style beers. Waitstaff friendly and efficient. Broad menu, kitchen, however, has poor execution of food delivery. Multiple dishes for our party arrived very late and ice cold ruining what would have been a pleasant evening.

This is one of my go to places and I have seen quite a few changes over the years. One thing that hasn’t changed is the brewer, Todd, continues to put out new and interesting delicious and drinkable beers! The food is creative and high quality but it is a bit over priced and a little heavy. There are not many light and refreshing options but the fries are hand cut and the sauces are all super yummy and one of a kind. The fried chicken is always cooked well and I love the garlic chili oil they add! We almost always bar sit and have made friends with much of the staff who are always happy to see us and knowledgeable and make fantastic bevvies!
I also love to come up and play darts with my friends!

Vegetarian options: There are very few veg options and some alterations that can make items veg but I wish there were more veggie dense and lighter dishes.

Food is pretty good. I think it could use another round of R&D to take it to the next level.
