The beer was ok, but getting hit with a 4.5% ‘kitchen appreciation surcharge’ that isn’t posted on the menu, after sitting at a bar and having 2 drinks, was not ok at all.
If the management appreciates the kitchen staff they should pay them appropriately, instead of surprising guests with bogus charges and using it to subsidize their profit.

Stopped by for a post-show drink. Closes at 10 pm on Friday evening.I overheard a few patrons complaining the 10 pm closing. Kitchen closes earlier. I caught the last call. It was not crowded. Nice, large and airy room. Great for large groups. Friendly service.Good beer choices and non alcoholic drinks. The IPA I tried was too sweet for me though. Prices are on par with the nearby places.Not sure how good the food is but good place to stop for a beer with friends.

We came here for lunch before seeing Funny Girl at the Opera House. We have dined here before so knew we would be satisfied. The staff is super friendly and offer great recommendations. It is an interesting space that got louder and as it became more crowded. The menu has changed a bit and offers international fare, which I was honestly a bit dubious about trying. I am glad we tried the newer dishes, however. The Butter Chicken was tender and flavorful. I would have preferred it with rice rather than nan, but it made a satisfactory lunch. The Spätzle Mac n Cheese was delicious if a bit hot seasoning-wise. There should be a note on the menu as it was almost too hot for my daughter. The Arepa Peluga was good but our third favorite of the three. Note, the restrooms are in the basement.

Nice brewery if you’re in the area shopping or taking a stroll in the park. Big space and bar counter, offering about 8-10 beers. Tried 3 and all were decent—-would probably lean towards their IPA’s which had the most flavor. Prices are about $9-10 a pour. They offer food menu but I didn’t try any. Service was friendly and prompt.

Staff is super nice and place is very clean and well kept.
We didnt care for any of the beers on tap so we didn't stay for too long.
Had shrimp tacos. Was pretty much shrimp and a crap ton of cheese. The corn tortillas were wet with what seemed like grease. Hurt my stomach for days with indigestion.

Friends and I all met her when we first go into town. I’m pregnant currently so I had a delicious cocktail. We ordered the Buffalo cauliflower, which was amazing. My friend and I split the fish and chips which was the perfect amount. Both friends enjoyed their beer selection, my friend recommends the black lager. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely would return.

Eh. Came across this places in my travels and stopped in for a few beers before going to dinner elsewhere. For me the beers on tap were pretty uninspired and quite frankly not that good. Left disappointed. Did not try the food.

I wouldn’t sit at the bar for your food. Bar tender waited till after kitchen was closed and then couldn’t get anything. Definitely shouldn’t be training others. Food was medicore at best. Steak was over cooked. Wing sauce was watered down.

Get the smoked wings; absolutely mind-blowing!! Beer is just ok. Prices are lower than anywhere else in the area, but still not even remotely cheap; welcome to late stage capitalism. Worker-owned is great to see, curious how much of a $11 beer goes to the employees vs. the landlord. I’m sorry though, and “workers pint” of light lager for $9 is not a deal. AT ALL. Cool spot though, will return next time I’m traveling to MA
