Excellent friendly bartender. She was very attentive and helpful. The beer was very good especially the amber ale. The pizza was delicious, and the salad was expertly tossed and dressed.

I went there and ordered their half sandwich and salad and it took them at least 45 minutes to bring them to me. It wasn't busy when we were waiting for our food. The Bread on the sandwich was burnt. It looked like it was a leper. I won't go there again.

Edit to original review of two stars:

After seeing my review, and confirming with staff what happened, Scott (owner) IMMEDIATELY called me and was as apologetic as someone could be. He took all responsibility. He offered to make it up to us the following day. We couldn’t make that happen. He left an open invitation to make it up to us. We scheduled but had to cancel because of my daughter getting Covid. Again, he reiterated his intention to make it up to us.

I’ll be honest, Scott went further than most anyone ever would have. He kept texting and kept in communication. When we had to cancel on him he kept in communication regarding my daughter’s health. He clearly means to do right and cares. Accidents happen. Nobody’s perfect. We have since and will continue to frequent Great River. It’s a great little spot.

Original review:

I want to recommend this place but it’s hard.

Great location and the staff is always nice.

That said, we reserved the back room for an early (5:15) dinner for a group of 21 after a movie across the street. They had a five day notice for this party. We called our order in the morning of (pizza and pretzels) to try to make prep easier for them. We requested that the food for the kids come out first as it was my daughter’s birthday.

When we arrived, there was a single cheese pizza and pretzel sitting in the window which sat there until I asked if it was ours to take back. It was cold. It was about 20 minutes before we saw more food come out. After an hour, 40 percent of our order still had not been made so we just had them stop making food and made do with what we had. The little ones needed to get back home.

There were a couple of times when there were long gaps in getting food out so I checked on it only to be told other orders were being made while ours was put on hold.

I understand it was a Sunday and staffing was light. There was one person in the kitchen and one bartender. The place was not slammed. I think aside from our group the most people we saw there were 8 additional people.

To make matters worse, some of the food came out well over cooked.

In fairness, we have reserved the back room for gatherings with more success in the past. The food that came out hot and not overdone was good, as always.

It sucks to say but I’m just not sure I’d gamble with this one again, at least for a group of any size.

Closed for a private party. No warning online, door said open, walked in and were told they were closed.
What a waste of time. Won't give them another chance.

Unique decor

I'm so glad that they were able to come back after the devastating flood. Now it's much bigger & better. The staff is delightfully friendly and courteous thay have a good selection of beers for any craft brew enthusiasts. Stop in and check them out. You'll be glad that you did.

In the area and was looking for a local brewery. You should think about listing your beers on your website since, well, you're a BREWERY?!?!? Went to Bent River instead.

Alex Anderson

Richard Vedvik
