The food and drinks are really good, but the atmosphere was so gloomy and depressing at night, I really didn't like that.

Food was good and service was fast. The vibe is a mix of dive bar and local hangout. Not really my thing, but it is a good representation of HoCo.

I didn't get food this time, but this place is definitely worth a visit. It's definitely a typical Maryland style brew pub, sports TVs, local crowd, but the vibe is welcoming and the beer selection is decent. Lots of empty taps.
Monday nights seem ideal for their wings special alone.

Staff is friendly to customers and to each other (which is the true test of a well-run establishment.)

Good mix of customers, good vibe around the bar.

Great bulgogi and nacho cheesesteaks. The chicken sandwich is big and crispy. Absolutely delicious coastal quesadilla with crab and shrimp. Highly recommend!

This place is by far the best casual eating and drinking, family-friendly place I have experienced. Everyone is very friendly. The regulars are the kind of people that will give up their seat to an older person. Very polite and sincere. The staff is more than accomodating, prompt and respectful. Miss Jenna is amazing, with a very caring personality. She'll make sure your visit is a happy experience. Miss Taylor, with her contagious smile is always a pleasure to deal with. Both these ladies, and the guys, and all the support staff are the kind if people you just want to be around. Even when things get busy, their professionalism never fades. I can't say enough good things. Stop in and see for yourself. You won't be disapointed. Thank you Miss Joyce and Mr. Josh for assembling a much appreciated group of professionals. They are a fun group.

One of the best burgers I've ever eaten.... Got it again ... Just to be sure. It still was. Got the crab dip...very good as well. Nice atmosphere. Twice though they kinda forgot about us. Was done eating for a half hour and still no wait staff. Ended up getting a guy from the kitchen to get dessert and the check. Maybe sitting at the bar will help. Still would go back when I'm in the area again.

We booked a party of 25+ people on their outdoor dining area blots of umbrellas and seating. Service was perfect and the chicken wings were the best. All of our guests were pleased with their food. We will continue to support this local establishment.

Great local spot. We didn’t eat, but will next time. They had a great selection, chill atmosphere and overall just a great pub.

HoCo Brew Hive has been a great local place to go for a beer or a bite to eat. You always run into someone you know! Tonight our server was Sophia and she was outstanding. Attentive, responsive and always had a smile. We started with the crab dip which was very good. I had the steak & cheese which was excellent. Great beer selection that includes local beers too.

Love the food and great beer selection!

My boyfriend and I are obsessed!!!! We have been coming about once a week at this point. Love the vibe and the workers are cool. It is laid back and casual which we appreciate with great food and a good amount of beer options (lagers, IPAs, stouts, ciders, sours - something for everyone!) we love the crab pretzels, the wings, the quesadilla, and the burger. We always have the best experience and look forward to our next Hoco Brew Hive Date!
