Delicious food and wonderful drinks selection! Terrific service! My husband and I went there for our anniversary and every server who came to our table wished us a happy anniversary. It was very sweet and made the evening feel special.

Beautiful on the river. Outdoor space. Fantastic food!!! Delicious beer.

Had lunch, Reuben and turkey parm. Both very good. Our server Justin was very professional. Attended to our needs quickly. It sits on the river walk. Great view.

The service, atmosphere, and food were exceptional. The Reuben sandwich, loaded fries, and crème brûlée coffee cake were all outstanding. I highly recommend this establishment for lunch and plan to return for dinner soon.

We ordered food and it took an hour to come to the table. Absolutely ridiculous.

Great stop on our visit to Elkhart! The food was tasty, drinks were satisfying and the service was great. Quality control is super important to this establishment. We ordered a dessert....and loved it! When we got the bill we discovered they comped us for the dessert because they didn't think the presentation or size were up to par for their expectations. (We loved it and had no idea...we were so impressed that they would do this on their own initiative!) We highly recommend supporting this outstanding restaurant!

Brass Elk has become our go to place for my husband and I. We have a few favorites being the Turkey parm sandwich, all of the burgers and fries and Southwest hush puppies. The cocktails are also very good. The staff is amazing and in todays world that says a lot. Always friendly and attentive, from the hostess, to the servers, to the bar staff. Highly recommend!

We traveled to Elkhart for the GLVC swim meet and ate at Brass Elk two times, both wonderful experiences. Delicious food both times.

Basic pub food, full bar.
Dietary restrictions: They do have several gluten-free options on the menu, including nachos and fries. All of the handhelds are available with a gluten-free bun.
Kid-friendliness: There were young couples with small children that appeared to be regulars.

Thank you for making our 26th anniversary special. Service was phenomenal, food was delicious!!! We will be back.
Been here a hand full of times and this is the last time. Regardless of new cooks or management it’s always a let down. Food is not great, cold sides (anything supposed to be served hot), okay brewed beer, and service was subpar. I’m done here.

On the patio by the river, sunny and beautiful. Good brews, and amazing food; generous portions (bonus!). Calm, peaceful, and pleasant atmosphere. Definitely an Elkhart, Indiana stop! We will return!
Wheelchair accessibility: Great options, chef made sauces and food. Easy to park and maneuver throughout dining areas.

Was there last night (first timer) and I can’t believe how amazing everything was. A true dining experience. Bartender was beautiful and knowledgeable on the craft beers. Food was beyond incredible…..the risotto was out of this world! The chef came out and talked with us and his passion for food was breathtaking. You have a repeat customer out of me and will be spreading the love this place is serving ❤️

I had high hopes seeing a brewery so close to where I was staying, and will always hit them up if available.
Entered the place, and saw huge conical fermenters, which is a good start, but then after receiving the beer menu, it seemed as if all were from other places. No huge deal, but was really looking to experience new beers.
What killed it for me was the lack of pleasantness from our server who was also tending a nearly-empty bar. No introduction, and just more of a "what do you want" attitude. That gave no incentive to drink more after a food order, and really just get out.
Food quality was good, but inconsistencies across serving. My co-worker got a side of ketchup with an entree including fries, but I did not. Big deal? Not at all, but just calling it out.
Overall I would come back, but my suggestion for the chalkboard beer list is to separate the upcoming from the on tap options.
