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.

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.

Stopped by when we were just passing through. Amazing hot honey chicken sandwich and Bridget was an amazing server. Unfortunately I was driving and couldn’t sample the brew, but it sounded amazing.

Who knew there would be live music ?on a Monday night?? And the place was really busy in the early evening ?

Great vibe, good food, good service! ??‍♂️

However, I was not really thrilled with the beer ?or the choices.

Parking: It's a bit of a jog to maneuver into the parking lot or park out on the street. It's along the canal and right next to the water park it's a bit confusing but there is room.

Dog friendly outdoor patio with beautiful river views. The food was tasty and the wait staff were friendly, but service was a bit slow this visit.

We had lunch and sat on the patio that overlooks the riverfront walkway and park. The scenery is colorful and beautiful. We ordered smashburgers and fries. My husband had the Wall Hanger craft beer. I had the Blue Smash burger and my husband had the original. Both were delicious. We both got fries with our meals but they did seem to skimp on the amount of fries. What fries we got were very good. I just wish we had more. Our waitress was very kind and efficient. Our food was delivered quickly. It's a very nice place with beautiful outdoor seating. They just need to give you more fries ?.
