The front part is a restaurant and walk on thru into the bar/brewery. We stopped for breakfast. The servings we just the right size, the food and flavor were good. The brewery part wasn’t open but looks very cool and fun. Also the outdoor patio looks nice.

Just a total miss!! The pizza crust is pre-made and low quality. Pretzels were ok at best. Beer cheese was not great. Just kinda a waste of time and stomach space

I don't usually review places but tonight's an exception. We were working up in the Big Rapids area for a couple days and hit up Crankers Brewery for dinner and a couple beers! Ok, I tried all 12 beers they had on tap but whose counting?

Anyways, I would like to say our waitress Kenzie was one of the most amazing servers i have ever had! She kept right up there with me and kept us laughing the whole night! It's not often you find someone like her!

My hats off to you Kenzie, you absolutely made our night!!

PS. I'm still waiting for my cheeseburger happy meal, lol

I got the Greek bowl. Ill preface by saying Ive had many tzatziki sauces, but they make their tzatziki in house. I couldnt swallow it - spit it out and returned it to the kitchen thinking it was spoiled but I was assured it was not. They brought me out something else, but by time it arrived my boyfriend was done eating and I just got it in a to go box. It was a brisket sandwich - 14 dollars - brisket was so tough and chewy and the sandwich was so small. Came with potato chips. Our bill was 60 dollars for two people. Thats one beer, one appetizer and two 'entrees'. Very disappointed to spend that and not get to eat a good meal. Some guy came to our table, not our server, and asked how everything was, if our food was good. I said just barely okay to be honest, not good and he said "okay okay you folks have a good day" and walked away. Uhhh, alright? Anyway, wont be going back again. The beer was good and the server was kind. But, at the end of the day Im looking for good food and sharing a meal with someone.
