Brixx & Barley

Pretty standard bar and grill type place with a lot of TVs all playing sports always. An expansive menu but food can be hit or miss. When in doubt, get one of their pizzas. I’ve eaten here many times over the years and order takeout from them as well. Service is also hit or miss. I’ve had great servers and servers that seem entirely checked out and almost as if you’re annoying them. Unfortunately my husband choked during our recent visit and the staff quite literally did not seem to care and were unfazed. I did my best and a friendly patron also came over to help administer the Heimlich.

Good food. We loved the pizza, the salads, the Brussels sprouts and pretty much everything else. I wouldn’t recommend the avocado fries though despite them being tasty- $12 for 6 small pieces. But all other dishes were priced well.

All the food tasted really flavorful. Wings had no crunch factor since they are not fried. I am ok with that in this case since it had an amazing smoky flavor. Buffalo was a tad bit spicier than usual in my opinion, but very doable and top notch. Rice balls were on point. Not a big fan of thin pizza but this one tasted 9/10 . I recommend the burrata , vodka Prosciutto pizza. They are not large. Short ribs were extremely soft meat and not Over cooked at all. Lobster tortellini had huge chunks of lobster and cream was 10/10. Would return. Lighting was a bit funky with the spot lights. Great service , very friendly. Parking was easy on Sunday night. Free. No wait for a table.

Thank you Brixx & Barley for hosting my birthday brunch. The food and service were great. Henry & Alyssa went above and beyond to make special accommodations. Guests all enjoyed themselves. I highly recommend for large parties they are pros at Brixx and Barley!

Dined outdoor was quieter. Mussels were fantastic.. small servings but Monday nights fixed price for multiple servings! Noticed the young person clearing the tables was diligent and cleaned with a smile. Requested bread a couple of times. Apple cider was great!

11/10/2024 Georgett was our service she was super nice. Food was good! It was a football Sunday so good crowd. My only one suggestion / Complaint would be because it is so busy maybe have the bathroom cleaned a little more often. I went to use it twice within one hour and it was really terrible by the second time I used it. Just a suggestion.

If you remember having a burger at a place after 2 weeks of having it I guess it's really THAT good. Lol, in all honesty gracious service with very filling serving sizes. The artichoke pizza is not for light eaters, that's really heavy. Tacos menu has some interesting combinations - I tried one really liked it. If you love food and love the beach ⛱️ - I recommend the place. Recommeded: The classic burger 🍔, Bang bang shrimp tacos 🌮 and Artichoke & Spinach Pizza 🍕

On point. This restaurant is doing it right. We came on a busy Friday, the place was full but the service and food was perfect. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable and also patient. I had fish tacos and tater tots, both crispy and flavorful. The pretzels were huge and yummy. Mussels were tender and sweet. Brussel sprouts were sweet and spicy.. I was jealous of the burger. It looked amazing. Rice balls and calamari were crispy and fried perfectly. And the steak sandwich with its good choice of toppings was an amazing surprise..

Great food and atmosphere ! Service was fast. Good music but if you are looking for a quiet place, this is not it. Fun, lively sports bar !

Service really good . Server came Up like 40 times before we got ready to order . The food was on point , and all stuff was perfect .

We were back in Long Beach so after our bike ride we had to come back for the pizza! Nice and quiet when we stopped in after the lunch hours but well before dinner would start up. This is def a stop when we return to Lpng Beach!

One of my favorite spots in Long Beach. Their brunch, lunch/dinner & drinks are great as well! Staff is always nice and super approachable.

Service 10 Food 10 Atmosphere 8 Noise 3 Happy 12 This is a great place to have out-of-this world pizza, drinks, wings, burgers, and an assortment of daily specials! We shared a cauliflower pizza with sausage, mushrooms, spinach, and extra cheese. Thin, crispy, great, but soggy towards the very end of it. I'd order it again tonight if I wasn't so full. The ladies ate the wings and raved about them. I can't contribute to that part of the review. They were silent while eating them. Nuf said? We also shared squid ink linguine in a homemade arabiata sauce with cajun butterfly shrimp. The dish was quite delicious, perhaps a little less spicy than I hoped for, but it was a large serving, well made, and served three of us. The sauce was quite memorable, in a good way. We closed with a crepe cake. Nice presentation, but the flavor was flat. It looks good, and it was tasty, but never did it make me go "wow" and that means, if you set your sights lower, you'll enjoy more than we did.

Tamara was an outstanding hostess that provided excellent service and a special pizza order of Spinach artichoke that was exquisite. Amazed at the food quality, fair pricing and wonderful service by Tamara!!

My husband and I always have a great time. We are always kindly greeted and seated immediately. The food is consistently good and the staff are well trained and very attentive. This is our go to spot when we don't know what to do for dinner.

So it was so good yesterday I came back again the next day. Alyssa, my bartender was AMAZING. The coconut concoction pictured was her mastery. So tasty. She also had a hand in some of the new items on the menu. Alyssa is a national treasure..... protect this woman!!

Dillon, here's what you need to educate yourself with. IF SEAFOOD SMELLS FISHY. IT IS SPOILED! I got sick eating here and will NEVER EVER go back. So everyone, you order seafood and it smells fishy. Send it back and request a refund. Then immediately LEAVE! Read up Dillon and educate yourself so you don't vomit and get the runs from this poorly run establishment. Clearly being busy screws up their service drastically and then again..seeing this establishment from LIRR and not busy. Not a shocker.

After a fun beach day with friends, we decided to hit up a local spot they recommended for dinner. It's your classic sports bar, so it was pretty loud, but I didn't mind it. They also have outdoor seating as well. We walked in without a reservation and got seated right away, but I'd suggest making one as it got really busy later in the evening! To drink, I went with an Aperol Spritz, which was spot on and was made perfectly. We shared the boneless wings in kickin' bourbon flavor, and they were absolutely delicious! The Bavarian pretzel was another hit--perfectly buttery with a really good cheese sauce on the side. For my entree, I went with the chicken burrata skillet, and wowww! It came out piping hot, which was great because lukewarm food is such a letdown. The portions were huge, and it was so good that even the leftovers were amazing the next day. The flavors were a solid 10/10, and the breaded chicken cutlet was cooked to perfection. Overall, it was a great way to end a beach day--good food, good drinks, and good vibes!

We had an amazing dinner, drinks and dessert at Brixx & Barley on Saturday night. We made a reservation for 7 pm which we found out is a good time since it's past the dinner rush of people coming off the beach in the summer. We were told 3-5 pm can get crazy! We absolutely loved our charismatic and fun server named Sterling! She was so knowledgeable and friendly; instantly put us at ease at a new restaurant with out 5 year old daughter and friends with us. Drinks were delicious; highly recommend the strawberry mint margarita! Delicious appetizers like the avocado fries, Philly steak egg rolls and wings! We ordered the American burgers, fish tacos and a tomato salmon dish and all were very well presented and yummy! My husband about fell out of his chair with his dessert of a peach cobbler sort of thing; peaches and ice cream I think! He loved it! We will be back and highly recommended!! Thank you Sterling!!!! This momma had a wonderful night out!

My friend and I wanted to watch the NFL games last Sunday so we tried Brix and Barley. Even though it was crowded we were promptly seated. Our server was great (glasses and a leg tattoo) and checked back with us many times. Good draft beer selection with 60 Minute Dogfish and Space Dust! The brussel sprouts and calamari were both good. Lots of TV screens so there's really not a bad seat in the house. The best sports bar in the area that I've seen!

Food is Great. Service is always friendly. My family always goes to Brixx & Barley when we visit Long Beach.

The restaurant was bustling, but we could get seated without reservation. The server was super friendly and helpful! We got lobster Mac and cheese , which was delicious and with generous amount of lobster. Calamaries and everything else was amazing ! Special drinks are super delicious.

Great experience for the knicks play off games, vibes were high and the whole restaurant was involved. Our waiter Sean was on point and hustled through the crowd, very attentive and welcoming.

We've been coming here since the opening . Used to be great bar food but the worst now is the loudness . Either people come in already drunk or they come in droves to drink and yell. Between that and the music and the horrible acoustics, our family cannot eat there in peace . Granted it's a bar type atmosphere, but it's also a restaurant. We cannot hear each other talk anymore . Something needs to be done . The quality of food has decreased as well. Sad . We used to like it here but our family will not come back . It's like walking into a loud club and it's very very annoying .

Every time I go this place never misses. Food quality is nothing short of amazing. They even offer weekday specials and promotions on food and drinks depending on the day of the week. Great for friends like, family.

We came here for a nice dinner. Atmosphere was a little dark we didn't have much lighting in our section but the music was a vibe. Server was prompt and polite made sure we were accommodated the whole time. We got the avocado fries as a starter and they were good just a little lacking on seasonings. I got the burrata burger as my meal the burger was juicy and pretty flavorful. my gf got a grilled chicken avocado sandwich she said it was light and flavorful. The bacon was crispy and a good amount they weren't stingy about the portions we were well fed and full after. Got a box for left overs. Price was fair for what you get. Overall a solid meal no real complaints would recommend to anyone looking for a classic bar n grill vibe in Long Beach.

Last time I came to Brixx it was for brunch. Food was great, service was a little lacking that day. The manager CALLED me to apologize. Anyway, my husband and I came back for dinner. RUN, don't walk, for their Detroit-style pizza. We've been fans of Detroit pizza for a while now and have been traveling to a spot in Brooklyn for it. Welp, Brixx just ruined our Brooklyn spot for us. Game changer. It is SO good. We also had the brussel sprouts which are the size of tennis balls, wings (love that they're grilled), and onion rings. All excellent. Big fan of this spot. Good drinks too. Service was very good this time around.

Delicious food, huge menu and large portions. Great cocktails, too ( salted caramel martini is the best! ) Our waitress, Sterling was attentive and pleasant.

Great restaurant. Very accommodating. And great food. Their bathroom on the right needs to be changed to a flushable toilet.

The food is really good for a bar and the wings are great. They're not fried. It's got a loud sports bar vibe. We had a great time and left full.

Came here and it was great. No complaints on anything. Well decorated casual spot and all the food was great. We got a pepperoni pizza, honey bbq wings, braised beef short rib tacos, buffalo chicken mac n cheese, and a grilled cheese burger. Tater tots were also good. The favorites were the pizza, the mac n cheese, and the burger but everything was great!

Amazing food, great people and service. We have coming years now . Amazing live music.

Service was excellent but food was pretty bad. The pizza had no taste and even though I was charged for extra spinach there was about one spinach leaf per slice. The burger was very greasy and the fries were mostly the crumbs of a batch.

Where do I begin.... Staff? The best! Friendly, knowledgable of food/drink menus & provides great service. Food? Great! Table seating? The hostess always finds something awesome for us. Hands down, the best! Highly recommend!

Maybe it's the oven they use. Their pizza is really good. Better priced then the competition, as well!

First time here. They open at 11am and by 11:05 the place was packed. (On Sunday) The menu is awesome. Some very unusual dishes. My mom got pancakes which were soft and fluffy! Son in law got a grilled cheese cheeseburger - a burger in between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches - whoa!! My daughter got a cob salad which was the bomb. Wings were amazing and there's a million different ways to have them I got pancake tacos. Eggs , thick slab of bacon and cheese inside 2 fluffy pancakes. Everything was delicious Coffee was not hot. Bathrooms were a bit yucky I'd still go back. So many amazing choices on the menu

Great location right near the boardwalk and other bars and local shops. When I first got there it was very crowded as it was 6:30 on a Friday. They sat us almost immediately though which was great. However, there was live music that started to play and it was so loud that I really couldn't have a normal conversation without feeling like I had to scream everything. The food was okay. I got an avocado grilled chicken BLT on a whole wheat wrap. It could've maybe used some seasoning. Also my fries had a random piece of pasta in it which made me a little skeptical of the cleanliness of the kitchen. The fries were very good though. The food was served quickly and there was a lot of options on the menu. Overall I still had a decent time. Probably wouldn't return though.

Another awesome late lunch Tried the Artichoke pizza Was so surprised it was a square and the crust was so crunchy Talked about that all week Service was good as it always is Salad was fresh and wings very tasty and meaty

The food was great. Truly delicious. But the bill literally didn't add up. When I got the check I thought something was off. So, I added up the individual items and it came up to 73, and we were charged 75. I redid it a couple of times thinking I might have made a mistake, but nope. I was right. I flagged the waitress and she was very kind. Asked if we wanted to speak to the manager. Had to catch a train so couldn't wait around, so I asked her to let the manager and owner know, and just paid the bill. With that said, if this is happening to every customer, that's so not cool!

My absolute favorite place!!! Cannot say enough great things about Brixx & Barley. This place has become my go-to since moving to Long Beach. There really is something for everyone. Two of my favs are the Burrata Burger and the Chicken Burrata Skillet (clearly I like burrata lol). They are soooo good! I also love getting a pretzel as an app which is always so warm and soft. If you're in the mood for a margarita and have a group of 2-4, I highly recommend the Megarita. As you can see from the pics, it's huge and also actually delicious. All of their items are reasonably priced which is why I come so often. I've always had great service here, but last time I had the best server. I'd give him a shout out but I don't recall his name :( When I completely forgot to ask to substitute my bun for a pretzel bun on my burger several minutes after ordering, he ran to the back to make it happen even though I can only assume the order was about to be finished. We also forgot our leftovers on the table when leaving and he ran out of the restaurant to make sure we got them. Amazing service every time! Besides the food, B&B is also such a cool and fun spot! They have a great bar and large tvs all around the restaurant. I've come here for live music and games and it's always been such a great vibe. I'm excited for football season to come back and also want to check out a UFC fight here soon with some drinks at the bar because there is no cover for the fights! Love it here!

Very Noisy, food and drinks were ok but not enough to return as the noise level was a distraction.

The boneless wings were incredibly overcooked and dry on the inside to the point where I only ate two, but more than not enjoying their food the place smelled like a bathroom/dirty rag. From the entrance to being seated there was an unpleasant smell. My friends did enjoy their pizza but idk if it worth it to return for that.

Lobster Mac and cheese is out of this world. It also has a nice Smokey taste to it. Atmospheres always fun. Great place to go after volleyball.

The pretzel for our appetizer was great. That cheese sauce was really good. I ordered boneless wing and the quality of the chicken was terrible. The chicken was random pieces that were like rubber. Our service was great the server was attentive and friendly. Ambiance was also good. I was part of a table of 7 and we were there around 2:00. I would definitely go there again, but I will not order a chicken dish unless I find out that they have changed the brand of chicken they serve

This place is great if you want a fun lively place to take friends to. It has a very young vibe and the staff is friendly and upbeat. The food is great, burgers, salads, cauliflower pizza and great appetizers. Hot cauliflower dish is amazing!!! Take your kids if your in long beach, they will like it!

After being a vegetarian forever more than a year, my doctor informed me I was severely anemic. In addition to iron supplements, I suddenly developed a craving for a juicy hamburger. This afternoon, we went to this sports bar/restaurant and a very nice server took our order for two medium steak burgers with sweet potato fries. When order arrived, the fries were delicious. We bit into our burger anticipating the juicy pink center. Alas, both burgers were well done and dry. The manager responded to our comment to the server by giving us $6.00 off our bill. Sadly, I will rely on supplements from now on. My apologies to the poor animal and my lapse in judgment. No more Brixx & Barley for us.

UPDATE This is a follow up to an issue I had with Brixx & Barley. After my issue the GM Henry Velasquez reached out to me about my issue on the order I made. He offered me a replacement order free. Finally everyone that was there for the first debacle was around this past weekend and not only did Henry give us a brand new order free He added a gluten free personal Pizza for a friend of mine. Jamie (manager) delivered it herself and I'm going to be 100% honest it was a HOME RUN. Pizza cooked perfectly from the crusts to the toppings. OUTSTANDING. Not only did she deliver this delicious meal they even gave me a gift certificate for my troubles. They def will get my business again and I will def recommend them. To Henry and Everyone down brixxandbarley thank you.

Finding a place that takes allergies seriously is a royal pain in the ass, and when someone very close to you has the allergy, it turns up the heat even more. My son has a dairy intolerance that acts like an allergy and prevent him from having even the slightest bit of dairy without severe consequences. This makes it near impossible to eat out without chancing accidental cross contamination, even if we're lucky to find a place that can accommodate him. Enter Brixx and Barley, who has a dedicated vegan menu to avoid the issue entirely. This is a godsend every time we head to Long Beach. Service is very friendly and efficient to the point of absurdity. My last visit the food took all of 15min to come. That's the beauty of eating at a large sports bar which is used to high volume when they aren't packed I guess. Drinks are also really good as they have a big, interesting menu. Their beer list is solid, however I really like their Resse's old fashioned (uses peanut butter whiskey, don't knock until you try it). My wife loves their sangria. Each time my wife and son got the vegan primavera and the 100% vegan pizza. Them being able to share is worth no having any meat on the plate. My son loves the food anyway as does my wife. Each time I got the LB steak sandwich 2.0 (filet, fried artichoke, Gruyère, arugula, garlic aioli, on a hero with fries). This is a pretty stellar combo, although I wish they had an option to double the steak. It's still a decent portion and very filling. Fries are great too. Great bar and place to eat overall. This is my go-to in town!

Nice place the meatball garlic knots were soooooooo good! Decent prices for good food. Left full and that is always important!

A lot of confusion here, we wanted a table outside, they cleaned the table and we went to sit down. Then the hostess that we spoke to about the table brought menus over to another table. When we asked for menus she never came back. Then a waitress came by and we asked her for menus. She said "did someone seat you? Because they should've given you menus"... so it didn't start off great. We were able to put my little ones kids sliders in... no kids menu, just spoken items of what they have. So you don't know how much anything is or details on the items. We ordered a few things from the weekend specials which we were happy about. I enjoyed the boneless wings that weren't fried with a delicious pineapple sauce and a zoodle dish with a chicken meatball (which they initially forgot to include on the plate as you can see from the pic). My hubby got a steak sandwich that he enjoyed and our friend got a pizza and glass of wine that went over well. Everything was portioned out very generously and we were pleased with the meal. We decided to get dessert, a blueberry maple pancake slice which although was good, basically tasted like a regular piece of blueberry cake. As much of a crazy start, I'd probably go back to try some other items!

Very average food, but they have good drinks. It's a nice place to come to if you just want a casual lunch or dinner, especially if you're looking for somewhere to watch sports. They also have a separate vegan menu you can ask for, which I think is great because it provides more options for certain diets.

Decided to try the pizza. Ordered the smashed meatball pie. Sorry to report , it was one of the worst pizzas we have ever eaten

Really enjoyed the coconut martini, the burger I ordered, the buffalo chicken dip. I would definitely return. Food was good and the drinks were too.

Food and drinks are great. Pretty large menu. Service is great but we had to wait a while to get someone to come over to our table.

1.5 stars. Pizza is TERRIBLE. pre cooked, they toss on your topping and reheat it! It's really sub par. Soupy TERRIBLE Pizza, fries were okay. They probably have some good food, but I don't know what it is. Not going back. It's New York and you advertise Pizza??? Just stop making them so badly. I glanced at another tables pizza's that they actually looked worse than mine. Shocking.

Food.... Below Fair Service... Bad Atmosphere... Less than Fair Noise Level... High Pricing. ... OK

I'm a bit surprised by the overall review of Brixx and Barley on Yelp. I went on a Saturday early evening and of course it was packed, busy and very loud but I expected this. I found most of our items to be very good. The pizza was crispy and not sloppy at all as I've seen some others comment. Their boneless wings were delish too. The avocado fries I could've done without (and I love avocado) because they were just a bit greasy for my liking and needed a lot of salt. My frozen sangria was a winner. I would definitely come back in the future.
