Burnish Beer Company

This is a new place in Salisbury Maryland and it's phenomenal. Not a fan of the wings as they have a sweetness in the seasoning, but others love it. (updated original post-10/2023) Return again today (11/22) and their food selection it's getting better all the time. By the way. RANDY makes some awesome 🍺 beer which brings me back numerous times!!

Best Pizza I’ve ever had. The hostesses were busy talking and not friendly as we tried to decide where to sit. To the venues credit, there’s a lot of good seating options

Very nice place, pretty crowded. The beers were a bit of a key down to be honest, very short on the taste. The rest was nice.

We've been here a few times now and it's always a fun time. We love the trivia events! We have had really good servers each time who have been very nice and friendly. The only complaint is the lack of food choices on the menu. What we have eaten from there was good, but the options are very limited.

***EDIT****
I am so pleased today!! Not only did I receive a response from my most recent review I was emailed by Brenna, Randy's wife. Randy contacted me today and was so deeply sorry about what happened this past weekend. Randy and his wife both are what being restaurant owners embodies. Randy was kind and so very caring. I was not expecting the kindness and understanding that Randy exhibited. I can honestly say I have never received a response quite like this. I did not want to delete my previous post because I wanted everyone to know how much different I now feel after being contacted. My husband and I will be going back to Burnish and we are excited for a long lasting relationship with Randy ,Brenna and Burnish!!!!! Thank you both again for being amazing owners that truly care about the wellbeing of their patrons!!!!!

I am sad to have to put a negative review in but unfortunately the management at this establishment needs to be held accountable. My husband and I decided to have a light lunch and drink here on our way home from shopping. We have been here many times before and the experience was very nice. The weather was nice on Saturday October 25th at about 2pm when we arrived and we asked to be seated outside. The hostess was great and sat us on the right side at a high top right inside the gate . There were several baseball teams there and we enjoyed that as we have kids and grandkids. The afternoon was going very well. I was engaged in conversation with my husband and i was hit extremely hard in the side of my head with a football. I was so shaken, my husband who is a paramedic was extremely concerned. He told the boy in no uncertain terms they were done playing around us. Now this football came from the left side of the outdoor part of the restaurant. The waitress was informed of the incident and reported it to the general manager who never showed his face to see if I was ok. We stayed a bit longer although I had a severe headache and my husband was not sure if I needed to go to the ER just to ensure everything was ok. We decided to inside the restaurant to speak to the manager as this was very disturbing. After waiting about 10 minutes he finally came to speak to us. He was aware of the incident and stated that he tries not to work when these groups come in because it is always a hassle. I asked him why a while after this incident occurred he say the boys again playing ball and came out on the left side of the restaurant and motioned the boys to come over to our side to continue playing. When he did this the boys headed to our side and my husband said you will not come over here. My serious concern is that if this had turned into a serious injury the restaurant would be accountable and you have a very disengaged General Manger that needs to be let go. if this had been an elderly patron that was seriously injured where would Burnish be? You charge $75.00 if a dog destroys property but you do nothing when a patron is injured due to the lack of responsibility by someone running your restaurant. Randy we paid our bill and left our amazing server Caeleigh a nice tip. it would be nice to hear from you since i know you came from EVO and did an amazing job there. I can assure you this would have not happened at EVO but if it did it would have been made right. All I can say is please be extremely careful if going to this establishment due to to the extreme lack of management control.

I only had the pretzel bites but they were good with the beer cheese. All the IPAs that I tried, I really enjoyed. The outside area is really nice and especially if you have younger kids because it is gated.

Updated- normally pretty good. Last couple of times small issues. Tonight we had dinner and it wasn’t good. Fruit flies, Roy light tastes days old, service was off and fried chicken sandwich was tough, overcooked couldn’t eat it.

This is a great place, and since it's not right on the main drag, it's a lot more relaxed and more comfortable than others.

A little pricey, but pretty damn good. I appreciate the gluten free options. For food, anyway. I don't think they have gluten free beer. The outdoor seating is really pleasant.

Unfortunately Burnish changed some of their menu. I went with the flank steak bowl and was very surprised they didn’t serve steak knives. I mean if you’re going to serve flanks of steak how do you expect customers to cut it into bite size?

I finally got to visit my friends Randy's brewery for the 1st time. I had a quick snack of steamed shrimp with a flight of Randy's beers on my way out of Ocean City from the Country Calling Festival. Great beers & food to choose from here. I definitely recommend a visit. Sorry I didn't get to see you while I was there, Randy.

Stopped on the way down to OBX to have dinner with my parents. They are local. We sat outside it's a nice outdoor seating area. Food was good and came quickly. The server came back and asked us if we wanted dessert. My toddler asked for ice cream. 10 minutes later she came back with the check and said the ice cream would be right up. We waited another 10 minutes. She has been taking and delivering a couple other tables drink orders. My son is starting to get pretty impatient. So I walked over and waited for her to be done with a table. I handed her the bill with. 50 percent tip and asked if the ice cream was almost ready. She said yes. We waited another 15 minutes for the ice cream. My son started having a melt down. She came back and said it should only be a few more minutes. We said we couldn't wait any longer. She said ok and walked away.

Was on travel and stumbled across this place. Didn’t eat any food, but it did smell delicious. Was just there for a couple hours and a few drinks. Great service great atmosphere would definitely go back to experience a little bit longer time and the food.

Good food and service. Enjoy taking my pups here. Wish they had more shaded areas for the pups but great place for outdoor or indoor dining.
