Great food, didn’t get to taste the beer, sadly but will deffinently be back !

Absolutely loved my sandwich. My family also loved all of their food too. Brisket sandwich and create your own bowl.

Nice patio for a summer outing. Great porter, lager and cider. The hush puppies, burnt ends bowl and the brisket bowl were excellent.

Busy, but not unexpected for a Saturday early evening. Got there just in time to snag a table on the patio. Parking is on the street, but was easy to find a spot fairly nearby. Great atmosphere and service. The beers I had were all good and food was excellent. Everyone enjoyed all the food - poutine, wild rice burger, trout bowl and BBQ Chicken Bowl. Will be back!

Came here yesterday for lunch and the food was excellent! The waiter was very helpful and friendly. For appetizers we got the sweet and spicy wings which were really delicious ! For the main course my partner and I got the fish and chips and the bacon BBQ burger. The fish tasted extremely fresh and the size of the fish was a pretty decent size. The BBQ burger was extremely delicious as well. The beer selection was also pretty impressive. I got the Millions of Peaches and Them Apples. Great place and super affordable! I would definitely return.

Quite busy when we went, but the service was relatively fast for how busy they were. The food was also quite delicious, especially the Cuban reuben (?). Their beer on tap are also quite good-- the standouts were definitely the smokehouse porter and the granola girl by far.

Several of our group arrived at 4 pm and others arrived for the next hour. The servers were very attentive at taking orders for food and beer. I ordered the wild rice burger. I didn't notice a strong flavor of wild rice, but it was very good. This veggie patty also included tomato and cheese and a large amount of hand cut fries. I enjoyed both the burger and fries. None of the beers interested me. Several in our group ordered beer flights with 4 small samples of their chosen varieties.

Came in for a late lunch and got seated right away. We order a flight of beers and the Grape Sour ale. Enjoyed all of the drinks and would like to try some of their cocktails another time.For food we ordered apps to share. The brisket burnt ends were top notch, the poutine, was very very good and the cajun dry rub wings. The wings were excellent, lots of flavor, not spicy, just smokey enough. My only minor complaint is $16 for 8 wings, but hey that's the state of the economy, so what can you do.Service was excellent and everyone was friendly. The interior is nice, clean bathrooms, they have high chairs for the kiddos and all of that good stuff. Parking was street parking so may have to park further away during busy times.

This is one our favorite restaurants in the area! The food and beer is amazing. They have great happy hour deals. When the temperature is right, their patio is beautiful and dog-friendly.Everything on the menu is delicious! My favorite is the smoked trout salad!

Good hush puppies but everything else was mediocre or below. We ordered several beers, brisket bowl, wild rice burger, and the fish & chips. The brisket bowl was decent but an exceptionally sad amounts of food. My wife was disappointed in the burger, the fish & chips were decent, and the beers ranged from fine to good. There was really nothing that we had that would justify the 45 minute wait or compel us to come back even if it wasn't busy.
