Good food and service. Excellent cocktails. Fried chicken sandwich was especially tasty with good slaw and pickles.

Crappy pizza. Expensive beer. Rip off. Not worth it.

As a sous chef, I always look forward to seeing how a kitchen puts its own spin on classics. The duck confit wings appetizer was unfortunately more reminiscent of standard chicken wings than a true confit. That said, the fig & walnut pizza and chipotle brisket sandwich were phenomenal—beautifully balanced flavors and clear highlights of the menu. The drinks, however, were underwhelming—crafted well in flavor but closer to mocktails than cocktails, with little effect and seemed to have no alcohol. Dessert was equally surprising: the peach cobbler came seasoned with fennel and other savory notes, unlike anything I've tasted before. Interesting, though not what I'd expect from a cobbler. Service and ambiance were excellent—our server was attentive, warm, and professional, and the atmosphere made for an enjoyable evening, even with the distraction of a nearby guest trying a bit too hard on a first date. In the end, while not the full dining experience I'd hoped for, there were still standout dishes that showed the kitchen's creativity.

When visiting this area for hockey tournaments, we always make a trip to Brick and Brew. Everything here is always wonderful. The Marilyn Monroe is my favorite cocktail there. It’s a spicy tequila drink. I also tried a Heavens to Betsy which was a refreshing gin drink. My friend and I shared the cheesesteak for dinner was absolutely delicious!! The bread tasted homemade and the steak was shaved ribeye. Everyone at the table enjoyed their drinks and food.

The restaurant is beautiful and has a nice outdoor dining area. This was the first time I have ever eaten outside there. As much as I typically enjoy dining al fresco, I did feel as though it lost a lot the great ambiance out there and wish we’d have asked to move inside. There is no music outside and you just hear everyone’s conversations around you. Inside has great decor, trendy lighting, and music….so I’ll just be sure to dine inside from now on……but, I will definitely be back at some point!

One thing, though…,they refused separate checks and will only do even splits. This is always such a pain when you go with groups to places that do that. It’s awkward and forced some to pay more than their share or for diners to have to sit at the table doing math….neither something anyone wants to deal with when going out for a nice meal. With Toast Tab and the handheld check gadgets widely used, there really is no reason to put patrons in that position by refusing separate checks.

The fried pickles were a pleasant surprise. Never had them served this way. Would definitely get them again. Huge portion

This was my first visit and it was to try their popular whiskey sour and ended up staying for a couple of flights and appetizers (the whiskey sour was great). The staff were welcoming and nice. Mike, our bartender was super cool and knowledgeable as we discussed food and spirit options while he poured our tequila and bourbon flights. Alcohol options weren't like your typical bar. Seemed like someone took their time to handpick the bar selection. I plan to return with a few friends and family. Be sure to ask for Mike if you sit at the bar.

Great gluten friendly options! Thought the grilled peach with buratta salad was great but a little light on the peaches (three small slices and they were super firm aka not totally ripe)

Great visit at the bar. Delicious Boom Boom Shrimp; Birria Eggrolls; Bavarian Pretzel Rods. Great beer and mixed drinks list. Fun & pleasant staff.

First time at Brick & Brew and they’ll be seeing me again!
I ordered the crab cake sandwich special and although it was a bit over-salted, the presentation was nice.

Now on to the MAIN EVENT!

This matcha drink was a spin on their Matcha Grove mocktail with a dash of coconut and a little something extra. It was so refreshing and reminded me of a summer ready matcha lemonade.
Next time I’ll explore more of the food menu, but THIS is my drink for sure!

I specifically brought my family here because they have celiac disease and this restaurant has a gluten free menu. Someone in our party ordered a gluten free burger with a side salad and they brought it out with croutons which was ridiculous and careless. Another person’s burger was brought out medium-RARE when they ordered it medium-well! The server was very good but so disappointed (and embarrassed) for recommending this place to my family and having this experience with them.

The whole experience was below average. The waitress was not attentive. We had to ask another waitress for assistance after waiting 15 minutes for ours to return to no anvail. We ordered 4 meals- 2 were brought to the table. When the waitress finally arrived to check on us she literally asked us “where is your food?” Ummmm 🤷🏻‍♀️ should I go ask the kitchen? Like what? To top off it off, the food we ordered was just ok. Won’t be returning.
