The Vanguard Brewpub & Distillery offers a fantastic venue space for events, with a great selection of beers on tap and a delightful steak Mac and cheese dish. Despite some challenges with events like line dancing, the overall atmosphere is very good, and the customer service is always excellent. The food quality is generally okay, but not exceptional, and the parking can be limited at times. The venue's role in local events and its award-winning beer offerings make it a popular destination for both music enthusiasts and casual diners. The historic brick structure adds a raw, authentic element to the music performances, providing a great close-up view for the audience. The jambalaya and Bulgogi beef bowl are particularly noteworthy, with high-quality ingredients and nuanced flavors that exceed the typical microbrewery fare. While the online ordering system can be a bit confusing regarding tips, the Vanguard Brewpub & Distillery remains a promising option for those seeking good food, drinks, and a lively venue for events.
