We showed up roughly 5:30 and ordered beer and food. I ordered Dos Equis and it tasted like a cider instead of what I ordered. We ordered simple foods and the same thing to make it easier because we had somewhere to be at 7:00. The cauliflower bites took almost an hour to come out and the fish and chips came shortly after and were burnt. The booth seats were lumpy and pretty beat up and the cleanliness of the place was lacking.

We walked in, sat down, browsed the menu, and then decided to leave. The place was understaffed for a Saturday afternoon, and we were told they were only serving the brunch menu, which seemed odd for the time of day. We ended up taking our business elsewhere.

The Biergarten has the nicest bartender ever. Tell Shev Phil says hello.

I was there for a private event. I am a 100% total and permanently disabled handicapped veteran. I was parked in the handicap spot. When the private event was coming to a close, they made an announcement that if I did not move my truck from that handicap spot I would be blocked in for the remainder of the night. Again I am a 100% total and permanently disabled veteran with handicap veteran plates. That is illegal to block a handicapped parking spot and I feel like I was singled out because I am handicapped.

Great prices on craft beer ?

If you need food within a reasonable time (like, less than 2 hours) this isn’t the place.

Went out with the family for a bite and decided to try Biergarten. Our waitress was very good even though they were busy. Food came out hot in a short time. I would recommend, especially if you like a variety of ? beer.

Would you like to have a fun night of playing bar trivia?! If you said yes I would very much recommend another place. We have played trivia at this place maybe 20-30 times. Of those times the same team has won 90-95% of the time. Maybe they are just good at trivia? No, this bar changes category week to week yet they continue to get only 1 or 2 wrong per week! We either play with actual geniuses, or they have their phones out the entire game for other reasons. The $3 beer on Wednesdays is a solid deal, but the joke of the trivia game they run makes me want to pay double somewhere else.

I got the cheesesteak and it was mostly bread and what tasted like velvets cheese. Service was pretty slow with only 1server on Saturday night. Wasn’t bad. Wasn’t good. Beer was cold and good though.

Service was good, beer selection not that great because so many were out,and some seemed watered down. Food was the biggest disappointment- 4 of us ordered burgers medium rare and on every one the patties almost burnt they were so well done. But it was a Monday....

Visited for the first time today for the brunch; probably will be our last visit as well. The food was good, but the service was atrocious. We arrived at 1:15. Sever got our drinks, then our orders, within about 15 minutes. Then, however, it was almost 2:30 before receiving our order; seldom saw our server again. Granted, there were a couple of larger groups there, but no larger than about 8; they were served within 20 minutes of our arrival, so there’s no reason it should have taken almost an hour to get our order. Spent some time watching the wait staff; it appears that they were more interested in chatting with each other at the end of the bar, and using their cell phones, than waiting tables and serving customers. Again, the food is good; just be prepared to take a nap while waiting for your food.
