ERIS Brewery and Cider House

Giving two stars because we’ve been here before and they do have good food and drinks, but today they get 0 stars for service. Attempted to have dinner here tonight. Got seated and given water, then sat for 20 mins and watched people that came in after us receive their drinks and have their orders taken. Watched servers and staff walk right by us and completely ignore us. Got up and left and no one even asked why we were leaving. As we walked out the hostess thanked us. Yeah, thanks for nothing. To add insult to injury, paid $5 for street parking.

Great food and Adult beverages. My friend is Pescatarian and she had a wide variety of dishes to choose from. Definitely the best Plant based chicken sandwich we ever had, they said it was imported from France. Can't wait to go again

Cozy atmosphere, attentive servers; and the shrimp and grits was outstanding! It featured a maple Sriracha drizzle which was a perfect complement to the cheesy grits.

Dietary restrictions: I cannot eat meat, and they were able to exclude the chorizo from the shrimp and grits I ordered.

This venue is a gem. Richard behind the bar has great knowledge for tastes and samples of their eclectic selection of beers and ciders. Had a delicious cauliflower wrap with what might be the best homemade house chips for a side.

Dietary restrictions: I'm vegetarian. Chips are fried separately from meat

Great atmosphere, cider is tasty but ordered the "bowl" of chili. No garnish or crackers on the side. Need to give the chili some flare if the bowl is a bit smaller than normal.

So this place was better then I thought it would be. We came early on a Sat night without a reservation. So the wait was 35-40 mins. We had little ones with us so we decided that was too long of a wait. We were going to leave when I'm guessing a manager came asked how many ppl were in our group and sat us. Our service was great! They were on top of it when with it was starting to get pretty busy.
The kids enjoyed it, i enjoyed it my parents enjoyed it. Nice atmosphere. Cool looking place! I also love how they donate to good causes as well. It states that on the menu.

Give it a try! You won't regret it

UPDATE:
4 yrs later and I still love this place! Just went there again tonight with my family (10/25/24)
If you're a hard cider person they have some really good ones. The blueberry was delicious, and the after taste you can really taste the blueberry flavor. Shrimp and grits are my personal favorite there and I can't seem to order anything else every time I'm there even those I swear I will. Definitely give this all women owned business a try. Still an amazing atmosphere.
