Came on a bustling Saturday night. Ambiance inside was okay, outside had a better vibe and less noisy with some games. Lots of seating and free parking after 7pm on the street. The kolsch and hefe beers were great. The sprite and vodka soda was off, like the carbonation was gone from their lines. Bartenders were quick but crass (short of rude).
um, Fantastic Singers every Tuesday for Karaoke!
Love love love Brickhouse! Their burgers are humongous! Their beer selection is so excellent and vast that you will have two or three brews you will want to try! And the staff are so friendly!The fact they play live music adds so much to the vibe. Any time I want to treat friends to a good time, I take them here. Additionally, if you can make it to one their special events, you can guarantee the decorations will be amazing!!
Great place, not a great bathroom situation. You got a hand dryer hovering above the toilet, essentially you're drying your hands with warm dookie air. Rip that out and get some paper towels homie.
We had heard a lot about this place and decided to go there for lunch. We found the service was a bit slow and the food was just okay. The fish and chips was pretty good, but the portions of fish were a bit small. My wife had the chicken burrito bowl and found it bland. Bloody Mary wasn't very good. They are set up with a stage for live music. Might give it a second chance in the evening some time.
The emptied plate strikes again and the Server Shelby gets the credit today. The food was amazing - higher quality than you would assume for a bar and they’re dog friendly. Staff all wore masks too!
We arrived late tonight, just be aware that it closes at midnight and there is no food after 10pm. The waitress was friendly and the draft beer was tasty. Life music until 11:30pm!
Loved the atmosphere! Quirky and I take to quirky like a duck to water. So much fun! I could see coming here often. Well, at least at first glance.I found the menu a little confusing, a general listing for burgers, but nothing specific, and then several house special items listed underneath, so I asked the waitress and she says I can get the specials with hamburger, so I say, great! Let’s do that with the Cali, usually chicken, but I’ll have it as a burger.When it arrives, looks like god made it with her own two hands! A plate of beauty. The fries were perfect, so I start getting excited. Can’t wait for the burger. Only it’s not the burger, it’s the chicken.And here is where I make my mistake… I think, it looks so nice, I hate to waste it. And I decide to eat it.So let me be clear here, I am not reviewing the mistaken order. Things happen. I could have asked for it to be taken back, maybe she just misunderstood me (although she says it’s her fault), maybe it’s the universe telling me not to eat so much red meat. No I am reviewing the chicken.First it was bland. And second, when I try to get it to my mouth, it starts to disintegrate in my hands. The bun soaks through instantly and squishes away from the chicken and I’m left with a pile of loose fixings. I try and pick through the mess for awhile eating the bread, the chicken, the lettuce, and the tomatoes separately, but after awhile, I give up.Anyway the server asks me how it was and I reluctantly say I was a little disappointed that I didn’t get the burger, and she says let me talk to the manager and see what they can do. I say that’s not necessary, but finally say thank you.When she comes back, they take $4 off for the iced tea (who charges $4 for an iced tea?). Yes, I ate most of it and no I wasn’t expecting anything, but offering something and then cutting just the iced tea seemed a little odd. I shouldn’t have even brought it up.They get one star for the fries and one for the environmentally sound paper straw. I suppose I give another for the fun feel and the nice waitress who at least tried, but that last star is on loan until I see how many I have at the end of the month.
Been in a few times and always enjoy the friendly faces and good drinks.
Fantastic night out in Vancouver. Tara took great care of us. The Buffalo Mac n Cheese absolutely delicious. Large portion sizes. Highly recommend.
