Started visiting this little gem as our son is now one of the cooks! The food is so so delicious! 2nd time we stopped by, this time the meat lovers pizza with a thin crust which I prefer and my husband had the bourbon burger and side of provolone sticks. Everything is homemade which is a bonus. Thanks for the great food and excellent service! We did get a few drinks but drinks are way below what you’d expect to pay most places.

Loved the sour beer, onion rings and especially the salad with grilled chicken and fig glaze. Great prices. Everything was tasty and fresh, well done!! We'll be back!

The food is great, why wife loved the chicken wrap. I had the hot chicken sandwich which may have been the best I ever had with the Asian flavor profile. Both were scratch made and excellent! The spinach artichoke dip was a great appetizer, and the onion ring side and french fries are all made in house. That doesn't even mention the beer. The Monk on Whiskey is an amazing Belgian beer that is aged whiskey barrels, it's really good! The Citrus IPA is also top notch! You need to come here!!! Also, the prices here are definitely below what you expect to spend for this type of quality! And to boot, if your here at happy hour, you save when more.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. Our waitress Riley was super friendly and knowledgeable. She offered us suggestions and let us know all the little ways they make their food and drinks so good. We had an orange Creamsicle drink, buffalo chicken dip, chicken quesadilla and custom Stromboli. The cook hand delivered the food and made sure everything was fantastic. We will most definitely be back.
We have been enjoying this wonderful establishment, along with the OUTSTANDING staff and the AHHHHMAZING food for years! It’s our favorite place for the entire perfect dining experience. Thank you Essential Fermentation ❤️

Inhospitable service, too busy gossiping to talk about the beer or food. When they did comment on their work environment it was to criticize the owner about inability to decorate or accept help. A regular said how good the soup was and the staff immediately talked about how terrible and gross it was in ear shot. Will not ever return.

Great hometown brewery. Carla was fantastic, I had a pizza and some homemade onion rings, they reminded me of a blooming onion! Food and beer was good and reasonably priced, service was friendly and quick! Don't hesitate to stop and give them a try!

Pizza was great.
Onion rings were great.
Service was great.
Atmosphere is - spartan.
No need to get too fancy, but at least put some pictures on the walls and get some fake plants or something.

Great place, great beer and really good onion rings, and a huge portion for only $5!
It was our 1st time there, and we will definitely stop again when in the area. Hopefully, we will have time for a full dinner, all of the food looked great.
