Good Word Brewing & Public House

A microbrewery with a full kitchen and great outdoor seating! While visiting this area I needed a beer and a burger. This place was perfect. Great beer and an awesome burger with fries. I didn't have a server, I had three! Everyone working here did so as a team. I would give 6 stars for service! The patio was comfortable in the July summer with fans everywhere. Dog friendly atmosphere made it a perfect place to relax as I had my service animal and my friends dog. This would be a regular stop for me if I lived in the area.

Delicious! My daughter and I had a great time dining here. There are many restaurants in the area, but I’m so glad that we decided to stop in at Good Word. The hostess made sure to set us up with a child friendly activity menu and everyone was very accommodating to my daughter’s needs. We were overall really happy with our meals.

Food was great. The server Ellie was very nice. She even curated a flight of beers ,based on a few questions ,for us since we weren't sure which one we'd like. The food came out in a timely manner and it was just an overall nice experience. Def check them out if you're in Duluth Ga

Honestly a pretty impressive meal with quality service. No complaints. We had both a burger and a pork chop, and brussel sprouts as an appetizer. Everything was cooked to perfection. The pork chop was one of the most tender I had had in the long time with great flavor on the vegetables. The burger was cooked in such a way that the cheese was almost melted into the meat, and the pickles complimented the meat flavor very well. One of the best burgers you can get in Atlanta.

This is truly a foodies dream. You can see and taste the car in every item on the menu. The beers are smooth and delicious. Food has big servings and the flavors are so deep and well balanced. They were easily able to make the fries gluten free and the gluten free burger bun was one of the best I’ve had.

Stopped in on a warm Saturday evening for a beer and a rest from driving. Food looked good and the venue was very nice. Sadly, they were so busy, service wasn't exactly prompt and even with 4 people working the bar, my drink order was delayed. I'd stop again, on a weekday to avoid some of the crowd to explore a little more.

First time. Very nice and upscale vibe for a brewery. Really enjoyed their beer. Dark Embers and Penelope were two favorites. Wings were good and hand cut fries were yummy. Tho given wrong wings, were supposed to be lemon pepper wet , they weren’t wet. We were given a wrong beer on our flight, the server said she’d check with our waiter but never returned. Beers on the flight were out of sequence. But overall a nice upscale brewery option for those who want to spend a bit more. For party of four: flights and food about $150.00.

I just have a frickin amazing lunch here at Good Word! Got their mouth watering Brussel sprouts & added grilled chicken which was phenomenal! Onna was my server and she got me everything I needed and recommended other options that were available. Overall fantastic experience. Would highly recommend!

Best cheeseburger I've ever had! The cheeseburger was asked to be cooked medium rare and it was done as asked for. The patty juicy with good amount of sauce and pickle, and the bun toasted just to hold everything together so Nicely. We also tried to 3 day brine fried wings which were good, batter was well seasoned and the chicken livers were not to fault too. I would come back here for the cheeseburger! They also make their own sauces which was delightful, we tried their bbq sauce which had a good kick to it. Good beer, good atmosphere and also dog friendly with a warm patio for the winter seating!

Came here with a large group of 13 people with no reservation and the service was so friendly and got us a table quickly. The vibe was a brewery decked out in Christmas spirit and twas very festive. Our waitress, dressed in a cute elf costume, was super friendly and catered perfectly to our group of 13. We ordered a round of their barley wine (10% abv; strong!) and it was deliciously sweet. The chicken liver was my favorite, it was fried nice and crispy with the peanut mayo sauce as a great compliment. The fried chicken was good, but a bit on the dry side. French fries came with sauce of choice, we got the garlic aoli Also, as far as pricing goes, everything was very agreeable and I will definitely be coming back for the good food, great drinks, and amazing service

Came by with some friends for an evening of drinks and chitchat a couple weeks ago. I'd heard the Georgia micro-brewery scene has been buzzing and was curious to try some more local offerings in person. This is a perfect place to do a beer flight $11 by choosing four options from their menu of about two dozen beers on tap. Wine and other cocktails are available too. Between a friend and I, we tried the following: - HALDA - Munich-Style Dunkel 12oz 4.8% - DARK EMBERS - Smoked Black Lager 12oz 4.7% - COMFORT IN THE DARK - Cold Black IPA 12oz 6.6% - DEPARTING FOR THE STARS - Czech-Style Dark Lager 12oz 4.7% - BURY ME IN THE SKY - Czech Amber Lager 12oz 4.4% - FACE FOR RADIO - American Pale Ale 12oz 5% - OPHELIA - Berliner Weisse 160z 4.5% - KEEP FORGETTING WHY I CAME English-Style Barleywine 10oz 10.8% The first 4 were all darker lagers so to my untrained palette tasted quite similar, deeper coffee/cocoa bitter notes. The Czech amber lager was mildly sweet and malty. The American pale ale was hoppy, mildly citrusy and bubbly. The Berlin weisse was exactly as described--tart, dry and fruity like a sour should be, though honestly the yeasty tartness isn't my favorite (kinda reminds me of acid reflux :( ), I kinda missed the part about it being a sour in the description. The English-style barleywine was an interesting one, this is my first time having something like this and the profile was unexpected. It tasted almost like a fruity caramel flavor. Sorry not exactly selling it, though it was really lovely and I'd go back to try this again. They happened to be out of the Holographic Heart, Penelope, and Never Sleep when we were there. Still quite a few options to choose from though! When we arrived around 8pm the place was maybe 60% full, may clearing out to about 20-25% by the time 10:00pm rolled around on a Saturday night. The inside is very nice, there's a large rectangular bar in the center with booths along the outside walls and tables in between. Wood-tone walls are inset with bookshelves, a few flatscreen tvs, and framed art. Floor to ceiling paned glass windows line one side of the building. The outdoor walls are decorated with colorful murals lending an air of vibrancy to the bar seating and barrel-top high tables set up outside. The waitress for our table was friendly and helped us take a couple group photos. Thoroughly enjoyed my evening here and would love to come back.

This place has plenty of drinks to choose from. I wasn't a big fan of the food, but at least this brewery offers it! I don't like when there's booze, and no food. I got the wings with gochujang sauce. And a GWB burger. The gochujang sauce tasted different from what I'm used to, didn't really like the taste with the wings. The burger had two patties, so it's a big plate for me. The fries are hand cut so that's nice. We sat at the bar, and I think the person helping us was new since we had asked a bunch of questions lol. The vibes here were pretty cool, reminds me of a library cause of all the books on the wall.

I had an early supper here after visiting the Duluth Fall Festival. The pub was offering a special reduced menu for the event. They were out of my first two choices for beer, so I ended up with Analog Life which was good. I also had the chicken salad sandwich with fries and banana pudding for dessert. The food was tasty. The dining room was nice, plenty of space and lots to look at. The staff was kind; they were changing shifts when I arrived so I had two servers.

What a great place! Highly recommend! Everyone who we spoke w/ was awesome. Andrew the bartender was great, Matt was great to speak w/ and Robert was also great! Good brews, good food and spicy beef soup was wow good! Thanks for a great day!

Get the bucket of chicken, do it. Best fried chicken that I have had in a long time. Admittedly, I haven't had a lot of fried chicken out and about but I'll go with the wise words of my beau and dinning companion "this is the best fried chicken around". Anywho, get it and be happy. We enjoyed ours with a side of brussels, fries, and a few dipping sauces. The beer is always good here and I really enjoy that they seem to care about their beer, too. Like, actually have an interest in what's on tap, sharing brew specifics, and sharing in your joy of getting the sampler to taste several brews. *Some* places offer a flight but then the bartender willy nilly decides not to allow it because it's too much work or extra dishes. Which, then don't put it on the menu! Anywho, beer flight rant over. This place does it right!

Great place to eat even if you aren't having a brew. The chicken was fantastic, and plentiful. Had a few pieces to spare for leftovers. Kids Mac was a hit, and the fries were great too. Nice ambiance, great to sit outside in good weather and enjoy a hearty meal.

A visit to Good Word is a great experience, from the tasty selection of beers to the great food to the bright and sunny library atmosphere. Good Word is a gem in the downtown Duluth area. We sat at the bar and had great conversation with the knowledgeable bartender, and tasted a variety of beers, each with their own story. I can't recommend this place enough. The owners came from The Brick Store, so they certainly understand beer. The "Die Todd Die" Pilsner was my favorite, but their pale ale and IPAs are also standouts. On a past visit we also had a sour that was fruity and delish but I think that was a seasonal brew. Perhaps it will come back. Regardless, there is something for everyone here. The parking was easy enough but I can imagine that it might be harder during a busy day. We were there mid-afternoon on a Saturday and found a spot quickly in the lot behind the venue.

What a treat! Just bought a car. We thought we would stop by and get a bite to eat to celebrate and very eclectic menu, but mostly a brewpub and we wanted brew food I mean pub food. I was the DD so I got some chicken livers as an appetizer that we shared and for me I got the chicken salad sandwich with fries which was spectacular and my son got the chicken wings which were very meaty, habanero was actually quite hot, which we love and the service was great. Located downtown Duluth parking was a little difficult to find but that's normal for this area. Lots of places to choose from but we really liked it. The beer was fantastic I hear... But really did enjoy this place and I wish I remembered the waiters name because he was spot on with his recommendations. Highly recommend.

Excellent drinks and food, in a beautiful space. We thoroughly enjoyed our stop here today, whilst out in Downtown Duluth for Derby Day. The brewery itself, is quite large inside. With floor to ceiling windows, that encompass every wall. The decor is modern and refined, but also feels relaxed and casual. The drinks and dishes here were all beautifully presented. Definitely Instagram worthy. My Mint Julep was excellent, the chicken wings were delish, and the panko crusted shrimp were large, crispy and we'll seasoned. I will definitely be back!

Some friend and I met at Good Word Brewing for dinner. GWB is a super cute brewery. I loved the decor. There's a variety of seating options; we were in a high top booth. Televisions are a nice touch. The service was impeccable; everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. I only wish my food selection was just as good. I was craving a burger, so I ordered the GWB burger and fries. My fries were lukewarm in temperature, and the burger was just okay. I've had better from fast food restaurants. Maybe it was just an off evening for the kitchen. I'd be willing to return and try something different.

Enjoyed the Steak and Frites on a gloomy day. They also have amazing sweet tea. It wasn't too crowded or loud. Customer service was amazing and accommodating. I'd visit again for sure

Excellent beer, very good beef sandwich and fries, fast service, clean pretty. I'll return during the week I'm here.

We stopped by here for a late Sunday lunch and it was quite nice. Nice ample outdoor patio so I can sit with my dogs. The drinks were good and we loved our food. The waitress was amazing as well. We're not beer drinkers so we didn't look at the beer menu. But we'll be back!

My absolute favorite place in Duluth. It's located near Duluth city hall where you can have a lovely walk afterwards. Inside is a nice open space with lots of natural lighting. They also have a nice heated porch where some people bring their dogs. They have a rotating food and beer menu and their staff are so kind and quirky fun. I frequent here with friends to get a couple flights to try out all their beer. The last time I went was for New Years Eve. They gave us free champagne for the count down. I always have a great experience every time I visit here.

Great food, beer and service. It is a cool brewery in downtown Duluth with also formal seating. I would go back again

Always great food! Good flavor and getting a bunch of snacks instead of mains is the way to go.

Pretty chill environment, love the heaters outside. Ordered the shaved steak hoagie and Ophelia. The Ophelia was fruity and tart which I enjoyed. The hoagie came with fries and was pretty decent. Not bad but not amazing. I still enjoyed it, it was a nice bite of meat bun pickled pepper and savoriness. The chili oil sauce and the Buffalo sauce were pretty good especially the chili oil one. Service was friendly and attentive. Other items my group got and commented on was the burger - pretty dang good, wings - lemon pepper wet was definitely not wet and was average, and the bucket of fried chicken - fine, needed sauce and was heavy just because it's just fried chicken

Great brewpub- a unique take this one is a bit more upscale than your usual brew pubs. This shows up in both the quality, service and price. Beer variety was excellent and the beers are good (not great). Food has been the highlight for me, the Fried Chicken Caesar (a sandwhich not a salad) was fantastic- right amount of spice the sauce/salad mix on top was a nice touch and the chicken was moist and delicious. The fries are a must get. Service was also excellent we came in with kids and they were very accommodating and friendly. The environment is upscale almost rustic with lots of nice lighting. There are a few TVs of you are interested in watching some sporting events, though they are concentrated at the front of the space (about 3 TVs). All of that being said it is a little pricey for a brew pub- the beers a $7 and 12oz instead of 16oz pours. The sandwiches and fries are good but $16 is a little much. Know what you are going in for and the quality is worth it, but the price keeps it from being a 5 star and more consistent stop for me.

Loved this place!! I can't wait return. We visited Good Wood Brewing on a Sunday afternoon and it was such a great experience. There is a parking lot with free public parking across the street from the restaurant which was convenient - just a short walk. The service at the restaurant was excellent and I have nothing but good things to say about the food. I loved my burger, it was cooked to perfection. Most places don't get burgers right (I'm super picky about them) but Good Word definitely did. It was a nice casual lunch spot and located in a great area where we were able to walk around and explore afterwards. Definitely worth checking out.

Who would guess that one of the best breweries in Georgia would be in Downtown Duluth, but Good Word Brewing lives up to the hype in terms of high quality, tasty brew. They offer many different styles of beer and manage to nail all of them. I'm not sure if they specialize in any particular style, but they do an incredible job with their lagers. I also enjoyed their saison, hazy IPA's, and English bitter. They always have cask ale as well. The offer a full food menu and I loved their buffalo wings (habanero flavor) with housemade ranch. Service was top-notch. I need to spend more time here and in Downtown Duluth...great spot!

This place has a vast indoor seating area and a small seating area outdoors. I loved the large glass windows that let so much light in. The planter's rum punch cocktail was good (fruity & sweet). The jungle bird cocktail wasn't my favorite (no pineapple taste). My husband enjoyed his flight of beers and his Fall Todd drink. The grouper hoagie was delicious but small for the price. Their fries were terrific, but I wouldn't say I liked the ranch dressing. It didn't taste like buttermilk. It had too much lime flavor and tasted more like garlic aioli. The chicken livers were good, but also a tiny portion. We got a banana pudding to go, and it was a very decent size and tasted delicious

Stopped in while driving through Duluth. We sat at the bar and had cocktails, appetizer, and split a main course. The bartenders were attentive and knowledgable. The food was delicious along with the cocktails. We came early and I would love to see it later in the evening. Definitely would go again!

Came back with family because I lovedd my last experience. So disappointing because we were not impressed. I brought them try the fried chicken because I could not get over it. We ordered a spread plus drinks. Tell me how we never got our tuna app and was still charged for it =(( I forgot about it till we got home and I took a look at the receipt. So sad. Also, not sure if there's a change in how the chicken is prepared but it is not the same. The brine has changed since the last time I've been and everyone started questioning my taste buds! LOL Not only that the chicken buckets come with 10 pieces of chicken with a breast cut into 2 pieces counting as two. The sprouts were also pretty very well done.. Besides all that, the drinks were great though! We do come by occasionally just for the bar when in the area and their drinks are works of art!

Everything about Good Word is inviting and makes you want to stay and soak up the good vibes. The service is always impeccable (usually sit at the bar, and they are incredible), good wine and cocktail selection. Love their sangria on tap. The food is simple yet phenomenal. Always fresh, always well made. Big fan of the wings, fresh fries and myriad of sauces to choose from. My favorite entree is the mushroom bucatini. Thank you for the love you guys put into this place. It shows!

Good beer, less than friendly bartenders. Can't wait to get my change and get out of here - too many good beer joints in this town to put up with unfriendly people.

We visited Jan 13th to celebrate our 5year anniversary and recreate our first date, as fate would have it, we were sat in the same booth ! Needless to say the night just kept getting better. We started at the bar with an old fashion and the El Diabla, chocolate and spicy tequila, who could resist?? After about a 15 minute wait we were moved to our booth for dinner. We started with the mussels and honestly, I could eat 2 of those orders by myself! (Maybe next time I will) For our meals, we unintentionally ordered the same thing from our first date as well, a classic burger and steak frites.( We normally like to try different things when we revisit a restaurant ) Another round of drinks, this time a rum punch , which didn't last long and a classic margarita, we opted out of dessert and in turn received a complementary glass of champagne to toast for longevity. The staff were extremely accommodating and everyone was helpful and attentive. The meals came out hot and the drinks weren't watered down or sweating. Thank you to the team who took great care of us.

The appetizer burrata plate was amazing, even better than expected. The kids mac and cheese was also really good and better than expected. Fries and sauces -- mild Buffalo and honey mustard -- were average and good. Lots of great options for beer flights. Outdoor seating was nice. Servers were nice. The filet wasn't a great cut and wasn't worth the price. It was also so excessively salted that we couldn't get through it. What I'm SUPER upset about -- and the reason this isn't a 3.5-4 star review -- is that we ordered three desserts to go and ALL THREE were badly burned. Of course, they hid it with pour over sauces, so we didn't see it until we were home. They weren't cheap desserts, and it's all going in the trash. Shady and disrespectful--who serves burned food?! We were planning to return with friends but can't in good faith recommend spending money here on the food.

I liked this place and the idea of it a lot and I hate to pop them with three stars but that's all I got man. Excellent beer selection and very knowledgeable staff. In fact, one of our servers, Ace was fantastic! They have a very unique service style. All servers roam around and wait on all tables. That is something you don't see every day. They have cask ales, but did not when I was there. Ace was kind enough to tell me I missed them by one day. Ugh The decor looks like it's in a old warehouse but I think it's not that old of a development. I may be wrong. The bar is beautiful and well put together with lots of great spirits. Beers are well described on the menu and they do have some really good looking mixed drinks. I tried a few beers and I like East Coast Squares and the Face for Radio the best. They do offer beer flight, so take advantage of that. Here's the problem.... The food is just ok. It's a great menu, very diverse and actually quite creative. We ordered several apps before dinner. Rolls where the best of the apps, which is strange. They had a nice savory bacon fat topping and were super cute in their little cast iron. Pig ears were fair at best but were presented beautifully. The sauce did really help them out, but still fell way short of being good. I may be spoiled with Hog and Hominy's version in Memphis though. Pork Belly app was exactly the same, beautiful but really lackluster tasting. It comes to the table fried crispy. Just didn't love it. Fritters.... Terrible. I'm not even sure what else to say. Frozen store brand hush puppies would have been better. Dry tasteless little balls of basic. Boiled peanuts are just nasty to begin with so I avoided them. I had the fried chicken for my entree. It was such a let down. I was really pumped about it from looking at the pictures and reading the description. I got three boneless breast balls, one wing, and one leg. The leg was the only good piece. The breast balls were dry and it's just strange to not have bones in a bucket of chicken. I'm not sure what they are brining that chicken in for three days, but it's not helping it at all. I should have asked for more chili oil in hindsight, but I didn't. I also got the fresh cut fries. These were good. We ordered several dipping sauces and I did enjoy them with the spicy aioli. Sorry Good Word... just didn't love it.

Brunch here is too die for!! Get the shrimp & grits if available. It will change your life

Good Word, never disappoints, amazing service, food and beer. Vibes, are amazing. Definitely, recommend trying them out

We LOVE this place!! It's so delicious the food here is just incredible! It's really unbelievably delicious! You really cannot go wrong with anything on their menu, but my partners and my go to are their Burger and fried chicken and okay- really we've probably ordered their whole menu at this point and it's just amazing! It's so rare to find such a top notch brewery that also has impeccable food! The service is absolutely wonderful! I really think the wonderful humans there enjoy their job because everyone is always so kind and really knows the menu too! Oh by the way- their alcohol is superb too! Extensive beer list and awesome cocktails! Ambiance is relaxed but also super cool modern and fun! Great place for a date night or friends night out! Just go and check it out yourself! You'll be glad you did!

Truly cannot say enough good things about Good Word. The food is always excellent, I've never eaten a bad thing here. I'm excited to see what they come up with seasonally, as the menu changes often. The beer is amazing and we typically take a four pack to go with us when we leave. And the servers and owner, Todd, are all wonderful and very friendly. We often bring the baby and sit outside, which is a great place to meet friends and just have a casual meal. Try Good Word Brewing and Public House, you won't be disappointed!

The seemingly simple act of venturing just a minutes outside of a place where we live can present an opportunity to experience life, culture and food that is distinctly and unique, once again highlighting the beauty of exploration and travel. This is how Duluth feels at times when venturing from the city of Atlanta. And then, there is downtown Duluth, with its own unique subculture that is neither Duluth that most know, nor Atlanta that residents are accustomed to. If there is a spot where "it's happening" in downtown Duluth, Good Word Brewing is probably it. It does not give off the context of being in Atlanta, where kids are seldom seen. It does not feel like Duluth either, where Korean demographic and establishments dominate. Unlike Atlanta's city center, the scene here is dominated with a demographical mixture of suburban families with kids earlier in the day. Towards the evening, it transitions to a decent number of tinder dates and middle aged guys trying to get away from suburban lifestyle of kids and housework to grab a cold one. Oddly, despite the huge Korean population of Duluth, very few of them seemed to be setting a liking to this spot and the downtown area in general. With Todd DiMatteo at the helm of brewing, beers are very solid, with a selection that is heavily focused on lagers and brown ales. Thankfully it was not another joint where every option is an IPA, which has been a trend as of late in many breweries. The wine bottle selection comprised a dozen or so bottles, priced roughly at 2 or 3 times retail. The Barolo is not actually a Barolo, but a Barbera, but who will complain about that in a brewery. Brian Crain is the executive chef here. Food unfortunately seems to run out very quickly, but porchetta was wonderfully cooked. Pig ears and fried chicken bucket are on the list for next time. Fries were a bit disappointing with very little crispy texture, creating a bit of sagginess. Good Word feels like a place that's delivering everything one could desire in terms of liquors, brewing, wines and food, and doing it quite well also. Bartenders are very attentive despite the overload of guests at almost all moments. The waiter situation is the one place where the joint does need some work. Either have waiters or don't, but the in between zone was a bit sporadic and was quite messy. The bar crew seemed to be trying to cover for waiters mishaps and lengthy disappearances. Despite some of these possible improvements, ended up spending at least four hours here and that alone is a testament of how good this spot is.

Went out to meet some friends for a couples date. We really like the interior set up. The food was pretty good and the beer was also good. The service was decent. The server was very nice, it just took a hair longer than we would have liked to get our second drinks, and the server did mention they were backed up at the bar. But no biggie. Overall we enjoyed it and will be back.

Simply 10/10 would come here again! Visited Good Word while in Georgia visiting my in-laws. My husband has been prior and knew it would be a place I loved. The ambience is inviting and comfortable. The whole staff was down to earth and felt approachable. Went on a Wednesday evening and there was plenty of seating inside, and a lot of outdoor seating as well. My husband got the bucket of fried chicken, I got the cheeseburger, and we both shared Brussels sprouts. He loved his fried chicken and he said it's the best he has had in a while. Big deal for a native Georgia boy! The burger was fantastic and the cooked it perfectly to order (I did medium). Truly the star of the show as the brussel sprouts. Holy biscuit. These things were a simple pleasure I did not feel worthy to enjoy. It was simply sprouts flashed fried with opinions and coated in what is essentially apple cider vinegar and brown sugar reduction. Y'all I am shook and forever changed. It was lovely. The GM brought us out a banana pudding desert that totally sealed the deal. If we could get inside the glass to lick it clean you better believe we would. To drink I had a seasonal Mary's Mirror gin based drink. That thing is so delicious I ordered two. Zero regrets.

Came here for Saturday brunch with two of my girlfriends. We arrived around 12:30 PM and were told the wait would be 45 minutes. The biz was buzzing and the bar was full. Good Word was celebrating their anniversary weekend. To our surprise, our wait was just under 45 minutes. We were seated at a high top table near the entrance. The garage door was open, which was nice but a little chilly for that day. I got used to it after a while, though. Loved the interior design. Cool light fixtures, exposed brick, great vibe. We waited for at least 15 minutes before letting the hostess know that our server hasn't been by. The hostess let our server know and our server came by shortly after to bring us water and take our drink orders. I ordered a paloma, $12. For my entree, I ordered the kale and brussel caesar $12 with shrimp for an additional charge. I also ordered a side of fries. The food was excellent. The salad was very tasty and filling. They added a generous portion of the shrimp. The fries were cooked to perfection and great for sharing. The paloma was nice and strong. I ordered two! I'll chalk it up to being overwhelmed and possibly understaffed, but there were delays between the drinks, the food, and our bill. We had to ask another server for our bill. The staff was friendly nonetheless, and I would definitely return.

We love Good Word! Courtney is the absolute best bartender out there! Manager Robert is also incredible! Their burger is out of this world. My finance loves their lemon pepper wings. If you get fries, you need to order a side of the black garlic aioli dip. It's amazing. Drinks wise, I love their gin and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. My fiancé loves their beer Isabella or 8 Days a Week.

Super friendly staff. I didn't get a chance to eat there, only drinks, but I love the vibe of this spot and would love to come back to try their food. Free parking available. The close spots are harder to get but there's a lot up the street that is pretty big. Just be careful at night because it's not very illuminated.

This was my second time going to Good Word and although it was very different from my first time, it was still good! I love the vibe- it's laid back but it's nicely decorated. Perfect for date night. Service is quick and they check on you frequently, which I appreciate. Their drinks have always been great! Literally try anything from the menu and I know you'll enjoy it. The food is okay. Their menu doesn't have a lot of options (WAY less than the first time I went) but what they still had was pretty good. I got the burger and fries. Good but nothing special. Worth checking out, I love the area and the food was good!

It's rare that a tasty venue can also have such a positive effect one one's mood. We popped in for lunch after a big stretch of hectic work on the road. The vibe change (for the better) did our spirits good. The food was superb. The boiled peanuts were the best we've had ever. All around don't miss this spot if you are in the area. Can't overstate the great service of the staff. We work and live on a perpetual road trip so we will stop back whenever we're in Duluth.

Our first visit to Word Brewing & Public House and what a great experience! The food was great, you must try the Fried Chicken Bucket on one of your visits. The service that Imari provided was superb and we can't wait to see her again on our future visits. The Blake's Peach Cider is a must have drink choice. The atmosphere and ambiance was right on and you won't be disappointed.

Great staff and wonderful food. Wonderful tastings and Courtney is the best server in town. Burgers are the best and the wings are huge and surprised me with great flavors!

So we got here around 10pm or so. It was one of the few places still opened and serving food. The wait staff was really attentive. For the food we got some fries and the burrata. Bothe came out really fast. So fast we thought they brought it to the wrong table. The fries were hot and crispy. They were normal sized fries. The reason I mention is because I love steak fries and not a lot of places have them. So I figured I would start mentioning this in my reviews of fries. The burrata hit all the spots and paired well with the wines and beers we had. I would list all of them out, but we all had one to many and don't remember. Thank God we ate the food before we really started drinking otherwise there would be no re review

I think this is a restaurant in my sweet spot and I would normally love it, but it was just a little off last night. This place was hopping on Friday night with an hour & 1/2 wait. We got a drink and appetizer elsewhere and came back for dinner. Our server was new and seemed a little clueless, but friendly. We ordered a few beers, including one of the guest taps; they were both good. We tried to order the scallops and chocolate cake, but they were out of both. Three different people came by to let us know about the cake being out. My mom was with us and she struggled to find anything on the menu, so she ordered a biscuit. We switched from scallops to the halibut special and banana pudding. Those were both excellent! The biscuit was pretty salty, but the jelly that came with it was a nice, warm, slightly spiced fruit flavor. I would definitely try again and can see why this would get great reviews.

My friend and I stopped in for drinks on a Saturday night. The restaurant and bar were busy and we were promptly seated and ordered a couple after dinner cocktails. I had the paloma and presentation was nice but the drink was pretty weak. Unique menu items you don't see everywhere. Good vibes and a DJ playing on weekends.

Everything!!!!!!! I go there WEEKLY for the large Kale/Brussel salad with grilled chicken - hold the anchovies At least 2 salted Paloma's

Great spot in downtown duluth for elevated gastro pub food and a great selection of beers and liquor. The outdoor seating area is super charming and perfect for relaxing outdoors with cold beer on tap! Their flight option is a great way to sample their huge selection of beer. You get four 4oz samples to try and everything we tried went down super smooth. For food, we tried the bucket of chicken (super crispy skin and moist inside - perfect to wash down with and IPA!), steamed mussels (that broth!), the shrimp roll (really well seasoned), and fries with a garlic aioli. We were really surprised by how good all the dishes were and barely left any crumbs to spare. Our table was frequently checked up on with various staff - everyone was super friendly and happy to answer any questions. Will definitely be back!
