"Downtown beer bar Craftsmen Kitchen and Taphouse announced on Facebook that it was shutting down. The post stated: “We poured our hearts into this project, in order to achieve our goal being one of the preeminent beer bars in the US. However, the economic realities have slowly set the pace for our future.” There are rumors that the address will become an event space." - Erin Perkins

"This hidden French Quarter tap house has a focus on local beers and sophisticated pub food.  The weekday local’s happy hour offers up half-priced local flights, drafts, and “beer food” appetizers. Additionally, the restaurant hosts nightly food specials, like the Tuesday $6 burger night, from Monday to Thursday." - Parker Milner

Atmosphere is comfortable and very welcoming. Great casual place to go with a group of friends! The food was very good. Our party ordered the Fish & Chips, Pork Belly & Grits, and the CKT Farmhouse (burger). Everyone enjoyed their meals. The food was perfectly cooked, and the flavors were rich and well balanced. This was definitely good, southern comfort food. I would recommend and I will go back again.

We stopped in for a late lunch while we were exploring Bay Street. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing, and beer selection would fit anyone’s taste. I had one of their summer specials the Summer Burger, the in house ground beef (which added ground bacon), tasted great! The crispy potatoes and garlic aioli sauce was to die for. We also order a mozzarella pizza with a sweet tomato sauce and a nice spicy kick. The only recommendation I could give the restaurant would be to add some more selection to the menu.

It's really about the beer. Best place for local brews. Try the local flight. Taps change weekly. Good menu but didn't eat. Loved the vibe. Good tunes-classic rock; Allman Brothers, Van Morrison and such.

Wow. What an amazing happy hour experience! The staff were so friendly, special shout to Dan and Haily who were so kind and attentive. The staff knew a lot about their product selection. So many (>50) beers on tap. We ordered sweet potato fries, pork spring rolls, potato bombs and hummus, several beers, and everything was awesome. Really enjoyed our time there!

Great food and best selection of quality beers from across the country. This is a beer lovers paradise. Set aside a few hours and taste your way through the unique selections.

Upon our arrival the hostess seemed irritated that we were disturbing her. This was followed by a 10 minute wait for our server to arrive, though when she did appear she was helpful, cheerful and gave recommendations from the menu. It was an additional 35 minutes after placing our order for food to arrive during this time our server was once again absent. When we did finally get our food, my sandwich was burnt and my exceedingly chewy and dry. The atmosphere and tap list seem to be the only redeeming qualities craftsmen has to offer. Tldr; Service was slow, food quality was poor however, the beer list is good.

We went in for a post dinner beer and ended up with a Ramen bowl and Kim Chi too. The local draft is good--Green Door and One Claw. The service is super friendly and quick. Nice modern crafts vibe.

Great happy hour and excellent food. What a great menu. You must order the squid fries, and the pork belly sandwich is ridiculous!
