Super chill joint, with very pleasant staff and quality beer. I was able to get a liter pour here - a big plus, and the beer was fantastic. We recommend highly. Awesome hot pretzel also - tastes like Munich.
Great beer!
I’ve been a loyal customer at Medusa for years. The beer is excellent, the atmosphere used to be welcoming, and it was a place I truly loved. But over the past couple of years, the experience has been overshadowed by consistently poor service — especially from one particular waitress who has made visiting uncomfortable and frustrating.
She never smiles — not once — and acts like every customer is a problem. She avoids eye contact, doesn’t check in, and often leaves you sitting at your table for long periods with no acknowledgment. If you don’t respond to her question immediately, she cuts you off mid-thought, says “I’ll be back,” and walks away abruptly before you even get a word in. When she finally returns, she drops your drink and rushes off again without saying anything, sometimes nearly spilling it in the process.
During large events when the bar is packed, her behavior gets even worse. Instead of navigating the crowd with patience and professionalism, she yells at the top of her lungs for people to “move,” creating an unnecessarily aggressive and chaotic energy. It’s jarring and completely out of place for what should be a fun, community-oriented space.
It’s clear from other reviews that I’m not the only one experiencing this — the behavior is a pattern, not a one-off. This waitress consistently treats people like an inconvenience and acts as if she’d prefer the brewery be empty.
Medusa still has great beer, but the atmosphere has taken a serious hit. Loyal customers who have supported this place for years deserve better. I genuinely hope management steps in and addresses the issue, because the service — especially from this one employee — is chasing people away from a place they used to love.
If you enjoy overpriced, flavorless beer served with a side of contempt, this place is your paradise. The “craft” brews were all equally uninspired — $10+ for something that tastes like carbonated mop water is bold, to say the least.
Our waitress acted like we were ruining her day by existing. She ignored us for half an hour, then finally approached with the warmth of a DMV clerk on overtime. We were made to feel like second-class citizens in a bar that barely deserves first-class attention.
The atmosphere? Imagine a gas station bathroom with a Bluetooth speaker blaring terrible music at full volume. It was loud, chaotic, and utterly charmless.
We left wondering if we’d stumbled into a social experiment on how far a place can fall short and still stay open. You’d have a better night drinking warm Bud Light in a parking lot.
It was a chill place that had live music, but it's not a great place to have a conversation. No printed menus, and my phone had trouble with the QR code. The food was decent pub food. I was part of a large party, we were all polite but our servers seemed annoyed. The bathroom sinks were both clogged as well. Not my scene, but if friends are there, I'd go again for them.
It costs 25 dollars to go in and drink on Sunday nights. Weird vibe for a brewery that’s main revenue is selling beer and not acoustic reggae music. But I don’t make the rules.
Staff were great, beers also!
Awesome vibes
Medusa Brewing is an awesome spot with a fantastic selection of beer and a chill vibe. They offer a wide variety of brews, and it’s a bonus that you can grab cans to go. One of the best parts is you can order food from Taco Gato next door right from your seat—highly recommend the nachos! The atmosphere is relaxed and perfect for hanging out with friends or enjoying a casual night out. Parking can be a bit tricky during peak hours, but it’s definitely worth the effort.
Very friendly staff behind the bat when we came in (shout out Shannon!!) Big shout out to a place that lets you try something new and take it back if you dont love it!! Thank you Medusa for being encouraging and non-judgemental. Wouldn't have expected delicious food with delicious beer...Happened to come by on taco Tuesday and enjoyed the super-tasty options.

the only place i have been to in 25 years where i walked in and the blood brothers was blasting. tight.
Great selection, solid beers, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. A couple beers weren't available for flights and staff made great suggestions for others beers I should try in the same vein.
1st server came up 3 time in less the 5 mins clear seeing we were small talking and looking. Both servers were rude then entire experience. Food was a 2 salty. Beer was the only good experience won’t go back again,
Love Medusa's...best beer and atmosphere.
Great beer, great people, great food what more do you need?
