A great spot downtown in a neat old building. I wanted to like this place but we were let down with tepid beer, overcooked burgers(ordered medium) with jalapenos on them(asked for none), soggy house made chips, subpar service, and cramped seating. To tope it off my wife and I who had the burgers got sick an hour or so after eating there. Another couple we were with also had jalapenos on their burrito when they requested none. I think they went jalapeno crazy that day. Maybe we just caught them on a bad day but we won't be back.

Food was delicious, and the atmosphere was as expected for a brewery. The service was slow going and drinks weren't refreshed without asking but it could've just been a dud server. It happens. Talk about a tough Food choice to make! Everything on the menu sounded delicious but I ended up going with a burger. It was cooked exactly as requested and the sweet potato fries were bomb. Very affordable for a family of 4. We ate well for just under $60. Would definitely go here again.Parking: Due to location, street parking is limited to meter or city parking garages.

Waiter was awesome but food not at all. Buffalo shrimp was cold. And nachos. Not even hot. I’m not one to tell the staff due to the fact MAKING THE FOOD HOT WELL THATS YOUR JOB! I just will not ever go back.

I’ve visited this establishment many times for many years. The food is amazing and my absolute favorite is the shrimp and grits. Oh. My. Gah!! For the last three to four visits I have came in with my twelve pound service animal, who is very well trained and behaved. Unfortunately, there always seems to be some sort of harassment from staff members and yesterday was the final straw for me. I don’t find it necessary to get into the details but I will say that management and each member of staff truly need some educational training concerning service animal and handler rights. Service animals perform a specific task based on their handlers needs and it’s very inappropriate for a staff member to walk up to a handler and interrupt when the animal is performing a specific task. Some animals are task trained to smell food before it enters the handlers mouth due to food allergies. And there are appropriate ways to ask handlers instead of rudely walking up causing an embarrassing situation for the animal and the handler. For every action there is a reaction. And the handlers responsibility is to always protect their animal. Do better. Kindness goes a long way. It’s very simple. For this reason I will not be back. I’m also a retired Navy veteran and when I asked about a military discount the server gave me the rudest no we don’t do that. Jeez, it was just a question. So let’s see, staff need service animal education, finally got the beer I ordered when I was literally two bites from being done with my meal (and I ordered it with my meal), rude staff! Nope, my friends, myself and my service animal will not be back.

The shrimp and grits are the absolute BEST! However, this is the third time I've been here and had an issue with the staff concerning my service dog. Who btw is a whopping twelve pounds. I don't think it's necessary to get into the details but management and entire staff need to be educated about service animals and their rights. Once again, I was harassed by a staff member and I refuse to go back. Very unfortunate because the food is so amazing. Also, I'm retired military and when asked about a discount I was given a very rude response by our server. I don't expect any special treatment but kindness goes a long way. The staff could definitely use a class in proper manners. Such a shame. Do better! Another issue was my friend asked for lemons and it took the our server forever to bring them because it was pretty obvious she forgot. My other friend ordered a beer and once again the same server took forever to out. He had almost finished his meal when she came through and said your beer will be right out. Yeah sure, you totally forgot it. Just apologize and say you forgot it. It's not that busy. It's annoying when they say that and you've watched them for ten minutes chatting with another server. Again, do better!

My sister and I had dinner here and it was wonderful! Got here right before 5 and was seated and served immediately. We had the grit cakes as an appetizer and they were incredible, i could've drank the sauce they came in. My sister had the pretzel chicken with chips and she loved it, and i had the shrimp plate with a side salad and chips. The salad was a 1.99 up-charge, but wad a good size and a good salad. My shrimp were very flavorful and delicious. we would come back here!!

A friend of mine told me this was the best place for chicken tenders, he wasn't lying! They were the best chicken tenders I've ever had. Real chicken cut super thin so it's cooked all the way through with a obvious homemade breading. The green beans are cooked in a delicious spicy butter with some garlic they are out of this world, and the coleslaw is crisp and fresh and not overloaded with mayonnaise like so many other places. From The Host and the hostess to the awesome waitress named Ashley this is a wonderful place to enjoy food and I'm sorry I started eating it before I took a picture it was just so dang good. So if you're looking for those chicken tenders or if you're even looking for a vegetarian dish like some coleslaw and green beans mashed potatoes and all the fixings;-) head on down to Front Street Brewery.

Good food with a lot to choose from. They also have one of the best whiskey selection in town. Staff provides outstanding suggestions for good and drinks. All of this with a chill atmosphere.

Front Street Brewery always delivers. Top-notch service, drinks, and food. Copper-top bar is a crowd pleaser.

Yummy!! Food was so good - chicken pimento sandwich with seasoned fries. Like that burgers can be swapped out for chicken. Fun atmosphere- busy but not a long wait to be served.
