Out of all the places in Brownwood, this was by far my favorite spot in town. The inside is spacious with both downstairs, upstairs, and outdoor seating. Interior is decorated well and also has merchandise (t-shirts, sweaters, hats, stickers).
Pioneer Taphouse has a wide variety of beers on tap as well as ciders, wines, and ranch waters. If you're like me and struggle with choosing, you're allowed to taste the beers/ciders on tap before making a decision which is super nice. As for the food, I've tried their pizza, wings, salads, desserts, nachos, etc. They were all amazing but my personal favorite is their hand tossed Fancy Squatch Pizza. All their pizzas have a nice crunch on the outside but doughy on the inside. And when paired with the ciders/beers, it's a perfect combo!
What I love about this spot is that they host fun events every week (i.e. trivia, karaoke, oktoberfest, live music, etc.) If you check out their facebook page, there are always events to look forward to so make sure to check it out! My personal favorite is the biweekly karaoke nights on Thursdays- you'll always see the regulars there and on certain nights it gets super packed which is always fun.
On top of the great food, drinks, and vibes, the staff and customer service here is amazing. The workers are always so welcoming and hardworking. I also spoke with the owner several times and he even helped me jump my car during a busy night which was very much appreciated!
Whether you're a local or visiting Brownwood, Pioneer Taphouse is the first place that I will always recommend!
