Pilot Project Brewing - Milwaukee

Historical curb appeal meets modern tap room. The vibe is modern and relaxed, with historic views in the front and modern city digs in the back. We didn’t get a chance to experience the roof top patio, but will definitely be back to experience it. Huge plus as always: it’s dog friendly! The patio and front area inside are perfect for bringing the gang. The drink selection is always changing in the best way — fun, creative brews that are actually good. The Strawberry White Pepper Margarita by Devious was the perfect summer cocktail. It’s just one of those places where you show up for a drink and end up staying way longer than you meant to (in the best way).

Good food and service. Manager Allen came to our table to see how things were. Waitress was very sweet. Smash burgers very good. Upstairs patio very large. Bartender up on patio only had one guest and didn't greet us however or let us know how or where to order. So maybe lil improving needed there but overall will definitely come back. Hostess was polite also. Good beer selections as well.

Blimey! 😊 I popped into Pilot Project Brewing in Milwaukee for a spot of grub and a pint, and it was a cracking good time 👍. The Italian street food was spot on 🍝👌, and the craft beers were bloody lovely 🍺👍. The rooftop bar had some fantastic views of the city 🌆, and it was a top spot to chill with mates 👫. The atmosphere was quite relaxed and welcoming, innit? 😎 The staff were friendly and attentive, and I felt right at home 🏠. The only reason I'm not giving it a full 5 stars is that the food could do with a bit more authenticity 🤔, but all in all, it's a top spot to visit 👍. If you're in Milwaukee and looking for a place to grab a bite and a pint, Pilot Project Brewing is a cracking good choice 👌. Give it a go, mate! 🤜🤛 Cheers!

This place is great! We got a tour from some bald guy named Bob, he was awesome! You can tell that he’s been around beer for a long time. He told us all about Busch Light. The food was really good and fast. The servers were very knowledgeable, especially Olivia, but Bob calls her something else.

Unlike other breweries, this place is a mix between a great service of a restaurant and food, with variety of drink and beer options. The space is very comfortable and the staff were super nice. The food was great, although the smash burger was a little too greasy and the fries a little too salty. Will go back again when the weather allows outdoor seating.

We decided to travel to Milwaukee, and we saw that the Pilot Project brewery was doing tours of the facilities, and we decided to take a tour, since we had never done one before. Our tour guide, Olivia, was great. She did a good job of balancing information with engaging jokes and was very knowledgeable. The tickets were $16/pp and included five tastings, and three $5 pours at the bar after the tour (per person). Pilot Project has a unique take on the brewing scene, giving a space to smaller brewers to have their start, and market their product(s) to a wide audience. We enjoyed learning about the stories of these different brewers and how Pilot Project came to be what it is today. I thought it was a great deal for the price of the tickets, and the experience overall was great. I will definitely be telling my friends about Pilot Project, and if I am in Milwaukee again, this will be on the top of my list of things to do.

I feel like there's always a shortage of Milwaukee eateries located in beautiful modern buildings. We came here after a long hot day of schlepping around town and came out of it cool, refreshed and happy. The food is ON POINT (see picture). Our server was pretty inattentive and somehow never around when we needed her at a time that wasn't busy. Oh well. Luckily there were other servers happy to step in and get us more food and drinks when we wanted them.

I had the PERFECT wedding at Pilot Project. Erin was enjoyable to work with start to finish. My wedding vision was - plants, sunshine, and good vibes. That’s exactly what I got. GREAT FOOD too! I would highly recommend Pilot Project for a wedding venue.

We wanted to try something new and stumbled across this place It's BEAUTIFUL inside. The various plants around the restaurant & spacious dining area. Very inviting. The service was amazing across the board. Food came out pretty fast, and tasted great. Pricing was reasonable!

One of the best-looking spaces in Milwaukee! I went for breakfast on Sunday and, to my surprise, found the restaurant almost empty. We ordered the Eggs Benedict, but it didn't match the description--there was hardly any hollandaise sauce, the potatoes were cold, and the overall dish felt poorly executed. Service was just okay. As an entrepreneur, it was disappointing to see how the lack of food quality clearly impacts the success of the business. Just last week, I had breakfast at Uncle Wolfie's around the corner--fantastic staff, amazing food, and a line out the door. There's no reason this spot shouldn't be just as busy, but unfortunately, the food doesn't live up to the beautiful space.

Location: West Town between Fi-Sirv and old Pabst building. Ambience: modern, spacious, and loud due to the warehouse interior and high ceilings Food: We had the big pretzel which was ample and fresh with a honey mustard dip. The cheese curds which were just okay. This was a disappointment because recommendations from YouTube gave them top ratings for Milwaukee. They didn't come out hot and didn't have any stretch; but they did come with three sauces: whole grain mustard, tasty dilled yogurt, and an okay cheese sauce. For brunch we had the avocado toast which was just fine and an ample portion. Two of us ordered the Caesar salad, one with ahi tuna and the other with salmon. Both were ample portions, but one was sent back due to getting the protein wrong. It was replaced quickly. The salmon was a little overcooked. I had the vegan mushroom root vegetable hash subbed with real scrambled eggs. That was just okay as well. I was expecting more variety of vegetables, but they were mainly just sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Feedback overall on the food was it looked good but was unremarkably seasoned. Drinks: Bloody Mary bar was pretty good. You can choose your alcohol base and they had a house and Zing Zang mix option with different salt rims, plenty of pickled veggies and hot sauces. A couple of us ordered the different beers and enjoyed them. Coffee was hot and strong. Service: friendly but understaffed both at the bar this Sunday and for table service. Our food came out before the drinks came to the table. We had to wait to get attention. I don't fault our server, she just had too many tables. Value: prices reasonably Overall, this place could be a standout, but needed some attention this visit.

Enjoyed our afternoon/evening here for a surprise 40th birthday party! The staff was welcoming and took great care of our group. I tried the NA beer and the shandy. Both were good. We were able to try a variety of foods purchased by the host and everything was delicious. I loved all the greenery used to brighten up the space. We were downstairs, which has a great open concept, TVs, and a large bar. We also ventured upstairs - a very cool area with a nice view. Parking can be hard to find. I'll definitely return during less busy times.

an early Saturday afternoon and there was plenty of seating and we're sat right away. It has a huge inside and you can reservation the space for different events. It also has a lot of greenery I can only imagine all long it takes them to water everything. My friends got a flight of beer and I got a hard kombucha. The one I wanted they were out of but I tried the blackberry lime and it wasn't bad but didn't really have the typical kombucha taste. We decided to get food. I had the side Napa salad and a side of waffle fries and it was the perfect amount. The salad was really good I would go back just for the salad. My friend had the wings and gave it like a 6/7 out of 10 and my other friend got the ABLT and it was supposed to be on focaccia but it definitely wasn't focaccia but overall enjoyed the sandwich. Overall I enjoyed my food. I would be more inclined to come back for the food versus the beer and if I had a big group of people because they have the space to accommodate.

We tried Pilot Project a little while back before a game. Great building and ambiance inside. Lots of space with bar seating, tables and corn hole. We ordered the fried pickles to start and I loved that they came in strips. I got a brisket sandwich which was just okay but the sweet potato fries were good. So many things to explore on the menu and the service was fast. Great menu with lots of beers and cocktails. They also have brewery tours we're excited to go back for!

We were staying near Pilot Project and decided to give it a try. We had cheese curd apps, smash burger and a fish fry. The cheese curd app was a good serving size. You got plenty. The fish fry was ok. In Wisconsin, you need to know how to do deep fried cod. The cod was overcooked. The breading was super crispy and crunchy. The waffle fries were meh. The smash burger was good. Very juicy and tasty. Well seasoned and all extras tasted great on the burger. The beer was very good too. Great selection. Not too expensive for beer as well. Our server was attentive and helpful. Food came out quick. The real gem here is the room. The space Is really cool. We were here before a brewer game. There were televisions on the wall. They have a massive space for groups. They have a cool view of fiserv forum. All in all, four out of five.

Great location, good food, good beer. You get a lot of food for what you pay and it's all pretty tasty. The wings were good, ranch dipping sauce was spot on. I tried the candied bacon rub and I thought it would be on the sweeter side but it was actually kind of spicy. Main complaint was that I didn't get a lot of bacon flavor from it. The other half was bbq, can't go wrong there. I did a flight of beer to go with my wings and the sour was my favorite. I felt like the options were a bit sparse, especially with how big Pilot is in the Milwaukee area. Overall good spot with gorgeous greenery inside. Service was good. She was quick to get our drink orders and then come back for food orders.

Sweet spot. Really enjoyed the venue, the way they renovated that space was brilliant. Food and beer was solid too.

Great location in the brewery district. Open and spacious place with a great atmosphere. I loved the bar and the hanging plant wall. They had plenty of TV's around so you could watch a game, they had a room for bags, and glass so you could see into the brewing area. Really cool spot! The staff were very friendly and attentive. They had my favorite kind of beer glasses. A great beer list with many choices. I went with an NA and really liked it. We also had lunch here. We had a big pretzel and the BLT&A. I wasn't super impressed with the food. The BLT has super thick fatty bacon. The rest of it was good though. The pretzel was average for the Milwaukee area. Definitely a fun spot to come with friends or family. I would go back but not likely for a meal, just for drinks and maybe a few apps.

Pilot Project was so much more than we expected. The interior is contemporary and spacious, and the plants were gorgeous, a different atmosphere than most breweries, and has a modern, airy feeling. The interior feels as if you are outside. We sat at the bar and service was friendly, and very nice. We ordered the cheese curds to accompany the beers. We were not expecting the portion to be so large. The sauce was ok, but we would have preferred ranch. The Standard Goods Lager was the favorite, and we bought some to take home. Overall, a good place when in the area. I would like to return for the beer tour.

I was really impressed by the thoughtfulness and attention to detail they put into this place when building it out. The Chicago location is lovely, but this one is INCREDIBLE. It's HUGE, it's spacious, it's airy, it's light. We were fortunate to come at a weird time on a gorgeous autumn day and had no problem setting up a spot on the rooftop with our group of 15! Everyone got drinks they wanted, we took some photos with the skyline, and soaked up some sunshine. Downstairs, we later had some of our group enjoying bags and other yard games INSIDE because there was space for that. If I lived here, I'd definitely be eyeing that private room for events. I was DD that day and appreciated that they had some Liquid Death options for me to choose from. Love all the plants, love the swag, love what you're doing. Hope to visit again in the future.

Okay so I will start off by saying we aren't drinkers, and we just went for food because it was close to our hotel. But we had a really great experience here, and would visit again. The live plant wall? So cool. If you're a plant lover, you'll enjoy this place definitely. Our server was super kind, and never left us needing anything. The portion sizes were huge, and everything was super tasty. My husband did try an NA IPA that they had and said it was tasty. The only thing I would have done differently is asked for extra dressing on the salad! Honestly, no complaints about our visit. Definitely would be a fun hangout for a group.

It's a great place to relax on a weekday and play board games and enjoy the wall full of plants that add to the great decor of the place. For appetizers make sure to get the giant pretzel. Probably one of my favorites in the city. Overall great service and great to hang out!

Service was great and the atmosphere is awesome in there! It almost feels like you're in a green house. The smell as you walk in is a little off putting (maybe from the hops?) but more so than most breweries. Also, the beer was only slightly cooler than room temp, which took away from the taste of the beer. I do love how the company was created to let smaller brewers test their beers without the start up costs of a brewery. Seems like a sweet spot to watch any game and there are deals every day with brunch on the weekends!

This was my second time visiting Pilot project brewing and I had a great time. This place is beautiful, especially on a sunny day with the glass roof. I got one of the hazy ipas and my bf got the panther pale ale. Both were great! We didn't eat a full meal but we shared the cheese curds and they were delicious and for $9 you get so many! The dip was especially yummy. Definitely recommend! They had a lot of events and specials listed for the upcoming weeks and I think it'd be super fun to attend. The bartenders were knowledgeable, kind, and fun to talk to, which was the cherry on top. I will be back! Can't wait to check out the rooftop one day.

My wife and I were in the area and decided to stop in for lunch and a beer. I had a Supernaturalist hazy pale ale and a sample of Six Strings and a Beat. Both were so good that I got a 4 pack of each to take home. I ordered a brisket sandwich which had the twist of having a thin layer of mashed potatoes with cheddar, and it was excellent. My sweet potato fries were crisp and tasty. My wife had the FALAFEL PITA which had a delicious crispy flaky wrap and spiced filling, along with an Asian salad. We were both very pleased with our drinks and meals and definitely recommend it. The server was very pleasant and attentive and the venue is very modern open and clean.

Atmosphere is incredible, modern sleek interior with corn hole available to play, multiple bars to grab a beverage and lots of waiting space! We just came for a quick appetizer and had a tough time deciding what to get with so many yummy options. We got the Jumbo Pretzel with beer cheese, beer mustard, and wasabi honey mustard which were all incredible. The wasabi honey mustard is sweet with the hint of wasabi flavor with out the powerful spice, delicious. The beer cheese was some of the best, thick and decadent. Needless to say there were no crumbs left behind.

The space is beautiful. The food is very good. The service was excellent. The only thing that could be better is the noise level. It's a very wide open space that echoes, but it is still worth the visit. The beer was good too.

FOOD: I ordered the wings and a side of fries. The wings were really good. For $18, you get 10 wings and they weren't baby wings. Eat wing had a decent portion of meat on it. The wings were cooked all the way through. I absolutely can't stand half cooked wings because that's how people get Salmonella. The spiciest wings are truly spicy. I ate 8 wings before I was ready to tap out. SERVICE: Our waiter was so nice. His name was Ben!! He was great!

Cool spot to get a delicious beer, hang out with friends, and enjoy some delicious food. Pilot Project Brewing definitely has a much more modern vibe than what I've seen at other breweries, which allows for hanging out in a spot that feels like a bright open patio, while being protected from the elements. The furniture also helps to give the spot a coffeehouse feel and the noise level is controlled pretty well so that you can hear others and have a lively discussion. The beer tour here was also quite fun, with plenty of history of the company and of Milwaukee sprinkled into it -- so that I had a better understanding of the beverages I was tasting as well. The setup is pretty spacious so that you're not feeling crowded at all, even with a good size group and getting a wide variety of beers (IPA, Stout, Kombucha, etc.) helped me to try different flavors and appreciate distinctly different aromas from each beverage. It was also great that they were able to accommodate our same-day 4 pm tour booking as many other brewery tours we had considered had already sold out. Overall, worth a visit whether it's for a drink, quite bite, casual hangout, or brewery tour. The decor, service, setup, parking, and other characteristics of the business make it an enjoyable experience overall.

This is our go to spot in Milwaukee. They have a wide variety of food, their fries are always bomb and they have great beers. It is very lively and busy but spacious.

Great atmosphere, especially during the Brewers game--fun energy without being too loud. We got a great beer deal: 5 beers for $25, which was perfect for our group. The food was amazing and super shareable; the giant pretzel, cheese curds, and fried pickles fed four girls easily. The service was friendly and quick, making the whole experience even better--definitely a go-to spot for good vibes, good drinks, and solid food!

We were staying downtown and had eye-spied this place a couple months earlier and wanted to give it a try. We loved the vibe. Lots of Bucks' fans enjoying a drink before the game. The young man that helped us was very knowledgeable and helped us pick out drinks and food. We were shocked by the size of the cheese curd order. We took leftovers home. We did not care for the sauce that came with them but loved them dipped in the ranch sauce that came with the wings. The wings were delicious and meaty. We would definitely come here again.

So spacious and bright! I am mildly Jealous of the (living and thriving) plants all around. I had a very friendly bartender who offers a number of suggestions for me. Since I stopped by early afternoon to do some work, it was relatively quiet. But around 5pm a bump in patrons. Lots of business professionals (guessing) getting off work and some tourists. If you are able to work remotely, this is a good place to do so. I wasn't hungry but I skimmed the menu. Lots of opinions. Several tasty sounding ones for vegetarians like me.

Amazing spot. HUGE space. Friendly and attentive staff. The best damn fried pickles I've ever had.

Looking for a place with a little bit of everything I found Pilot Project Brewery. The ambiance is amazing and just what we were looking for, industrial modern brine the outside in. The pretzel was big and the beer cheese and honey mustard were so tasty. I got the fish sandwich with sweet potato fries and it was great! Would definitely go back!

This place might have the best charcuterie board I've ever had. The board was plentiful and enough to feed our group of 4 while we sipped on our flights and beers. Our server was helpful with guidance on the beer flight, noting that some of the beers on their menu are only available in cans and they are not an option for the beer flights. The space is quite large with a side bar that could be used for private events.

The real project at pilot project is the service. Whichever two bartenders were on the rooftop on the 28th of June 2025 from 8-10pm were the worst possible bartenders ever! The rooftop was very slow this evening with the actual bar top more than half empty yet it took 10+ minutes to get any sort of recondition. No "We will be with you shortly" not even any eye contact. The bartenders were too busy frolicking off in La La land to do the one thing they got hired to do... tend the bar. I will say everyone who was downstairs tonight was absolutely lovely and matched the levels of service you would expect from tip based profession. Frankly I'm just disappointed in the complete lack of care that was upheld tonight. The rest of the place was lovely but after an experience like that I question how much I really care to go back.

Visited Pilot Project Brewing during Milwaukee Krampusnacht. This is a HUGE space with plenty of room for the event. My group was running TTRPG's in the balcony. Lots of people were there hanging out and visiting the merchant booths located throughout the space. I was a little frustrated with the bartenders downstairs. They didn't seem to know the product and didn't bother promoting the special event brew that was available to purchase. The other staff I interacted with were great. I did order a burger later in the evening and it was very good. Most of the other food I observed people eating looked great.

Really good food, beautiful open space, great beer. Big room for kids to run around with lawn games like bags. Great activity for winter!

I had already been there when it was MKE Brewing, so I decided to check it out once Pilot took over. Nice little brewery, very open and bright. I love that they have the beer flights. The atmosphere is not pretentious at all and service was friendly. My favorite brewery in the Milwaukee area.

I went here in the summer and it was quite dead. The atmosphere though is great! I loved the upper rooftop, and inside is not only massive but lots of fun nooks to pop a squat and drink some beer! The beer is also delicious - not super amazing but I enjoyed it enough to have a second beer.

Upon entering, you know this is a next level brewery...interior is modern, expansive, clean, and futuristic. Service was friendly all around, our waitress charming and full of personality. A Yoga class was taking place in another room, filled with 8s, 9s, and 10s practicing their namaste before a beer. Speaking of which, there seemed to be over 20 choices between cans, bottles, and on tap. The FOOOOOOD is brewery food elevated to the next level. Not your usual greasy burgers, fatty wings, and generic pizza. $9 Cheese Curds...flavorful polenta beer batter, chive garlic crema...an exciting modernized and inventive take on curds...best in Wisconsin? $16 Italian Beef Sandwich...Version 2.0?? Cleaner! Slices of tender juicy beef, pickled serrano horseradish aioli, giardiniera, and rather than being pre-drenched like in Chicago, a side of beef dipping au jus provided to control your juice to your liking...delicious! I opted for the side salad...it was big, fresh, tasty, and healthy. This is a great meal for only $15.

I had never made it to this building when it was Milwaukee Brewinf, but we've been here twice since it's been Pilot Project. And I absolutely love it. First off, the venue itself is beautiful -- it's big and open and super cool looking. The staff is really nice and helpful in taking through the different beers. Their beer is excellent. I most recently had the Basmati Rice Lager and it's seriously one of the best beers I've had in awhile. We've only gotten appetizers there and all the ones we've tried were excellent. So, great place to hang out, have some excellent food and really good beer. Huge fan.

I went to Pilot Project Brewing Milwaukee while looking for a brewery to tour. The bar and restaurant area is open and inviting. The food was excellent. I tried the fried pickles and cheese curds. We went on the brewery tour next. This was full of fun information and the tour host was very entertaining. I enjoyed the beers that we sampled on the tour. I highly recommend the tour, food, and beer at Pilot Project Brewery Milwaukee!

So, didn't eat or drink here. Hit it on Krampusnacht to see the vendors. It looks like it did when it was whatever brewery it used to be. Wood tables, lots of metal and glass. Not the best for the crowds they had with all the booths but seems nice.

Olivia- great knowledge, funny, amazing rack. the beer was pretty good too. would come back again

Quite a large establishment! A friend recommended it to me and I was amazed by its sheer size. It is a fantastic place to go with friends, enjoy some great brews, share some great food, and watch the game along the way. There aren't any limits with Pilot Brewing. It's able to cater to any group of friends or family! We share a lot of the appetizers and the one that stuck out for me was probably the Poke Nachos with ahi tuna. It had the perfect amount of savory and spice!

Interesting beer options here. Since it was my first time, I got a flight (4 five ounce pours). The Mango Milkshake was really interesting and I loved it. I also highly recommend the fifty five rocks! The space is huge and vibey. There's lots of plants and a nice open space. It's beautiful! Service was great. Nothing to complain about.

Loved Pilot Project! Huge open space with plenty of room to spread out. Came by for a private event and got to try a sample of the food and drink offerings. Parking was easy - some free spots and metered spots available. The staff seemed very friendly and helpful. Super quick to grab anything we needed. The food overall was good. The rosemary fries were a little heavy on the salt but still good. Loved the garlic aioli with it. The curds were great too with the matching chive garlic crema. LOVED the meatballs - moist, not dried out, and the sauce was perfect with some chunks of tomato in it. Was not a fan of the chicken slider with the broccolini - seemed to overpower and the breading got soggy from it. The fondutta was a little too strong from a typical beer cheese standpoint but the pretzel bites were good. Will definitely go back to try more! Can't wait to sample more beers, too! Want to check out the rooftop space!

This was such a fun place to try. We had both the build your own Bloody Mary and mimosa flight. It was a fun experience. Only down side was the temporary online menus. But overall the food was delicious. But drinks can add up quickly

Lovely! The roof top was open! Bartender was great! Friendly! We shared the Bratwurst burger! Great flavor! Beer battered fries were amazing! Crisp and great seasoning! Brussels Sprout salad was crisp and light! Great pistachio flavor with pears! Great lunch to tide us over before festive Witches Dinner! Italian style pilsner was crisp and refreshing! G and T made to order! Bravo!!!

Food: 9/10. Went on a Friday and got the fish fry. It was very good. It comes with cod and bluegill (plus another fish, but I can't remember which) along with fries and fried pickles. I would highly recommend it. Beer: 9/10. Got to try a few different ones and they were all good. There was a wide variety and I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. Ambiance: 10/10. The place is massive and the outdoors is nice as well. I'm not sure if they do this, but live music would be awesome there. There's also a rooftop, but I didn't get to see it because of a wedding (rude of the wedding party to rent out the space!) Overall: 9.5/10, will be going back on multiple occasions.

My husband and I joined a few friends for trivia, which Pilot Project hosts on Thursdays at 7pm. We have bopped around to different trivia locations, but it was our first time at Pilot Project. Right off the bat, the main hall where the trivia was located was not the right spot to be hosting this event. The acoustics were terrible and we could barely hear the questions despite the host using a mic. He did come around to each table at the halfway mark and at the end to repeat questions if we needed, but overall the trivia experience itself was a little lacking for this reason. Onto the food and drinks, both were decent! My first time at Pilot Project was for the Pride party Yelp event and I already knew they had some tasty items on their menu. I got a draft margarita and my husband got a shandy - Brewer's Kitchen Mañandy. My margarita wasn't anything "special" but it tasted good and exactly what I wanted. My husband loved his shandy and even I liked it despite not usually being a beer-drinker. It was light, summery, and floral. We decided on some apps for dinner and got the cheese curds and fried cauliflower. The cheese curds had a polenta beer batter, which was very different from other fried curds we have had. It was VERY crispy and crunchy as a nice contrast to the smooth cheese inside. Most of the curds were big and stuffed with cheese, but the smaller ones were pretty empty. The chive garlic crema it came with was very garlicky (in a good way). It initially paired well with the curds, but then I wanted to try the curds with other dips, which worked out well because the cauliflower came with two dips! The first thing we noted about the cauliflower was that they looked very pale and they were not crispy at all, which could be on par for the tempura batter and we just didn't realize. The cauliflower itself was also pretty bland and definitely needed to be eaten with the dips. It came with a plum gastrique and a cherry pepper aioli. I personally thought the gastrique was too sweet alone, but with the aioli it was okay! Overall the dish was good, but I think we expected a more flavorful and crispy fried cauliflower that we've had elsewhere and this just didn't hit that spot.

Checked out the new pilot project for the first time in MKE this weekend and I was impressed! I had been to the space before as MKE brewery but not as the pilot project. I am not the biggest fan of the building as it is very big and warehouse feeling but it does have a lot of room and outside seating. The food was outstanding! Everyone was pleased with their meal and honestly it was one of the better meals I have had at a brewery. I definitely am going back for food. The service was okay as you don't have a waiter as you order everything via your phone. It's nice because things come out fast but it took awhile for them to clean our plates and you can't really ask questions about menu. Overall, if you're looking for a casual night out with good beer and good food. I'd recommend pilot project!

The food and beer saved this place from a harsher review. We were looking specially for a rooftop bar and looking at the website which stated our roof is open no reservation needed on a sunny day decided to go to Pilot Project. Unfortunately when we arrived we were informed that the roof was closed for the day. We ended up sitting out front at one of the picnic tables which doesn't have any wait service, you scan a QR code which gives you menu ordering and payment options. Kind of like ordering off door dash. It's not that bad of a system as you can keep your tab open, order drinks and then food and even more food before closing out. Started with one of their beers, the Two Falls Hazy India Pale Ale which I guess I expected on draft but came in a can. The vessel didn't matter as the beer was delicious. I'm not sure if it was brewed and caned on site but I do recommend it. Next up we ordered the pretzel bites as I thought the French onion dipping sauce sounded unique and worth a try. I thought the portion of pretzel bites was very generous and the dipping sauce was amazing, Again I recommend trying them. Next up was the Arrabbiata margarita flatbread which states in the menu that it is made with with a spicy chili sauce which was no joke very spicy as advertised. Food is brought by runners kind of no frills, had to ask for one of them to brink us napkins. I almost gave them 3 star for the whole experience but the food was great. Enjoy!

Wildly impressed with the food here! We expected them to have tasty beer, which they did, but the eats stood out to me even more. My husband and I stopped in for a bite ahead of the Bucks game on a Sunday. To our surprise the place wasn't at all busy, but that meant we got to snag a spot at the bar. This was my first time in the space since Pilot Project took over, and they didn't make any changes to it whatsoever, which isn't a complaint because it's a really cool venue. Hopefully they can continue to fill it because it's a ton of space! I'm not a huge beer drinker myself (don't get me wrong, I really enjoy it, but it just sits too heavy on me). This being said, my eyes went straight to their hard kombucha options. Wow, TASTY! Of the two flavor options, I went with the ROVM - Hibiscus Berry. As with all kombuchas, it was fairly carbonated with a punch of flavor and tartness. I loved the strawberry/raspberry notes and the drink overall with very fresh. A great option for those who don't drink beer but want to enjoy this place! Gluten free, and low sugar as well. My husband on the other hand... big beer drinker. He enjoys trying different varieties, and had nothing but good things to say about the Brewer's Kitchen Hazy IPA and Funkytown American Amber Ale. On to the food. Which is worth noting because this isn't your typical bar/pub menu. We split the burrata Brussels salad and the acorn squash flatbread... both fantastic and so flavorful. The salad had citrus, elderflower and hazelnut, which could all be tasted. As for the flatbread, it had a thick, warm bread base, and the squash puree was lovely. Topped with goat cheese, chile garlic rosemary oil, and crispy kale. Chefs kiss. I will say, that as tasty as these dishes were, they do seem overpriced. $17 for a flatbread... oooof. Luckily it was dang good. I'd look forward to coming back here when the atmosphere is a bit more bustling, or during a fun event. Great space for it!

Beautiful little bier garden style brewery. I love the sky lights. The concept is really unique as well, kind of like a "test kitchen" of breweries. I like places that have the WR code order & pay system. I think it streamlines things a lot better. I will say the dish/ glass clearing could be a little more prompt. We had to put our empty stuff at another table to make room because they kept bringing stuff out but leaving the empty glasses. We ordered their cheese curds, which to me were a little too heavy on the breading. Also the rosemary fries. I wasn't fond of the sauce that came with the fries. I tried a beer flight, so I could try several kinds, and was pretty happy with it. Prices were pretty reasonable.
