Okay brewery with some shockingly good food, ideal for groups because the place is so spacious.
The kind of lackluster previous reviews made me think I wouldn't enjoy this place, but coming in on an unusually hot day, this place felt like a sanctuary for seating our group of 5 (3 adults, 1 toddler, 1 pup) in under 15 minutes inside for weekend brunch with no reservation ahead of time. I was particularly impressed with the excellent service here (waiter checked on us frequently and went above and beyond to make our tired toddler and pup comfortable) when the restaurant was pretty busy. There is also outdoor seating here that seems pretty, but due to the heat, we were set on sitting inside.
The beer here isn't anything to write home about, but on such a hot day, their shandy (and lemonade seltzer without the beer) were particularly refreshing and a hit with our whole group. Food came pretty quickly (within 15 min) after ordering and came PIPING hot and huge. We were hungry but still had so many leftovers -- pizzas are ideal for sharing vs an individual serving here, which we should have asked about before ordering. Everything was really good but the Bavarian pretzel with cheese was my personal favorite item. Perfect balance of yeasty deliciousness and salt with great, dunkable beer cheese. The bean salad was also refreshing and a great balance to the cheesy, filling pizzas we had.
If you want a chill vibe, good for kids, with wonderful service and food when on the W 25th strip, this place is an easy crowd pleaser!
