Food was decent. So was beer. The atmosphere was so-so, but it IS Rosslyn. They should have more staff.

This place allows dog-owners to bring dogs in 100+ degree weather, getting drunk and neglecting heat exhaustion. even when the dog is barking in distress, laying on hot pavement, surrounded by crowds screaming and blaring music. what kind of pet-owners bring dogs into such a stressful situation, and what kind of business allows this. As a business - you need to set temperature cut-offs (IE: 80 degrees) when pets are allowed, because intoxicated customers clearly can't make responsible decisions. it only takes 30 minutes or less for dogs to suffer effects of heat upon internal organs. DO BETTER.
Atmosphere not great but it's beer in the city so that's good. Service came across surly at first but they warmed up. The most off-putting thing is ordering a pint and getting it in a plastic cup. That needs to change.

Went with a group of about 8, there were maybe 20 people there sitting outside total as it was very hot. From the start the woman behind the counter was very unfriendly and curt. We chose to sit inside at the few tables because it was really hot, and basically everyone else there left so it was just us. Then a huge storm started (with a severe thunderstorm warning in place) which caused damage to the outside tables and overhangs. Since we were already inside we stayed there to wait the storm out, and continued to buy drinks. Some water was leaking in through the door, but otherwise there didn’t seem to be any damage to the indoor area where we were sitting. We were about 8 patrons just sitting around drinking and talking, I don’t think we were being loud or rude. Then abruptly the woman told us that we had to leave within 5 minutes because they were closing due to the unsafe weather causing damage to the property outside. She said their pool Hall around the corner was open and we could go there if we wanted. We clarified that she recognized the severe weather and still expected us to leave and go outside in the dangerous weather. She said one of our friends (already en route when the storm started) arrived during the storm and “she was safe so you will be too”. Truly a bizarre experience. Kicking patrons out during a severe weather warning seems wildly inappropriate and a much higher liability than us sitting there and waiting 15 more minutes for the worst of the storm to clear. 0/10 would not recommend to others

Sticky floor, loud, trashy place. This place is great if you are still living in 1990s.
We had a fun time playing bachi ball and hanging out on the patio. They have a lot out outdoor seating but there are no umbrellas and only a couple tables inside so don't come if it's raining. There's a pretty good selection of beer and a few slushi style drinks too. The service is great but keep in mind they automatically add 20% to your tab.

Place is a joke. Service is the worst. Located next to a construction site. Dirty. Walked out after waiting forever.

Great selection of beers and the food is good quality too. I just can’t justify a mandatory 22% gratuity for counter service. It is not justifiable for the same level of service as a fast food restaurant. Please just raise the prices and pay staff better. One pint of beer and a sausage sandwich was over $27 after mandatory tax and tip.

22% mandatory tip for a drink pour? Just raise the prices.
Staff is always friendly and the beer line is quick. Super fun venue and the food is good too!
Absolute ripoff. $8-10 beer for a concrete ground with a bunch of picnic benches. Vibe is mid-af. Their whole model is "let's rig this place that costs us nothing but we can charge the same price as the thotty breweries and tap rooms". There are also two small single bathrooms that end up with 15 minute lines. There is no covered seating. There is no indoor area.

This is a really cool place with a nice urban vibe. It's quite basic, but that's part of the appeal. The heat lamps are much appreciated and the draft selection is awesome! They also have several non-alcoholic beers!
