Second Rodeo Brewing

Not really my jam, but I could see how people would love this place. Live music, drinks and food, in a great location. Do locals really go here though? Food was okay/good. Small portions, and if I had to categorize it, I would say it’s typical bar food but pretty good, for bar food. Beer was cold and yummy.

We were vacationing near the Stockyards and we really enjoyed Second Rodeo Brewing. Service was friendly. They have a large selection of drinks and their nachos are great. We also enjoyed the live music on the patio.

A must stop kind of bar. This place is HUGE. Inside, upstairs, the outside is enormous and there’s a balcony over looking it all. Frozen drinks come in a plastic cowboy boot you can take home, some cocktails are in little bottles you pour yourself. Live music. A kitchen you can walk up to and order snacks from. Tons and tons of bar tenders and no shortage of seating. The whole roof opens giving an inside outside vibe. They have a little shop and a fake jail for photos

I rented out part of the restaurant for my husband private surprise 60th birthday party. It was absolutely fabulous. Staff were very generous with their time and helping us with everything from start to finish.

It was a great environment just a lot of the early twenties crowd. I had heard it was more 30s & up so I’m not sure if we just went on the wrong night or what. So a lot of sloppy drunk kids and youngsters doing the nasty in the bathrooms. The guy singing was okay you just couldn’t understand him well. The drinks were really good and about average priced. It was hard to find seats even though we got there at 7. The nachos were average.

Really enjoyed this establishment. Had some tasty apps and listened to live C&W music. Loved the fun and quirky vibe here. Highly recommend a stop.

Cool place with cold drinks and live music too. We just happened to be walking by and decided to check out the place. They have a full bar and offer some food. We didnt have food but did have some cold drinks while we listened to some live music. The coolest part was the outsideish area had a retractable roof. That was awesome.

This is my go-to spot at the Stockyards for spending an afternoon relaxing with friends and listening to live country music. It's always crowded on good-weather weekends but I've always been able to find a seat.

One of the most talked about Fort Worth locations to stop. Great food and drinks and a spot to have a nice lunch/dinner. Walkable downtown forth worth.

Dinner at the Stockyards in the great city of Fort Worth. What do you expect? Live music? Beers? A great backyard or patio space? I think Second Rodeo Brewing is the only place that truly delivers on that third one. I'll make this review simple. Let's start with the atmosphere. It deserves the highest praise and is the reason I'm even writing this. The space is absolutely gorgeous, with plenty of outdoor, indoor, and hybrid seating. You can be as present with nature as you want. It was a decently cool evening in Fort Worth, so the hybrid space felt very comfortable. There's tons of seating for groups of all sizes. I have to mention the beer. It is a brewery, all things considered. I got a tall of their Roll Dog Amber, and I thought it was pretty good. I don't think I'd ever seek it out unless I was at SRB, but it did what an amber should do. It had a solid maltiness. Did I mention the atmosphere? Outside, there was a beautiful creek filled with turtles. Isn't that sick? Above the stage, a bunch of acoustic guitars, fiddles, and other string instruments were hanging as decoration. One of the cases belonged to Asleep at the Wheel, who I hope plays ACL one year. The only issue I had with the place was the food. They had two different food stations. One focused on burgers, and the other focused on chicken and wings. I considered the wings, but I ended up going for a Philly cheesesteak. At first glance, it looked fantastic. Melted cheese, beef, sautéed peppers--the whole nine yards. But man, that beef had no flavor. It tasted like my grandma was cooking chili. What a travesty. If they stepped up their food game, this place would be a perfect five out of five. But the tragic beef knocked it down a peg. Also, they use a weird soda brand. Not even Maine Root. Something totally unfamiliar. What's going on here? To close, I want to mention once again how great the atmosphere is, in case I haven't already. With oil cans hanging from the ceiling and décor that welcomes you to Fort Worth, the experience is more than worth it.

Very cool looking and huge brewery in the heart of Forth Worth. It was a hot afternoon so we stopped here to get a beer. Unfortunately my beer felt flat and with not much flavor (no CO2 perhaps). They have great decor all around. The bathrooms art is super funny and enternaining. Service was ok.

SRB is brewery #319 for me. SRB is big! Huge patio area with live music. The beers were good but didn't wow me. This place is really about the location and the vibe. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced.

There's no direction given when you walk in. Once we figured out we had to find our own seats and how to order our food and drinks, we enjoyed ourselves. The food was ok, the drinks basic and expensive but the ambiance, the live music are eclectically unique. We had a good time.

Came here for my high school reunion. The staff was amazing. But do get prepared for a lot of people traffic while you're here. Especially on the weekend. It's very loud and fun.

Great place for beer and cocktails! The food options are a bit plain but the drinks are good! Love the patio setting with live band and at each sales, there will be a donation request to support live music :)

This place is AWESOME! It's easy to miss walking down the road so make sure you're looking out for it. When you throw the front door open, it reveals on the best places that you kind find anywhere at the stockyards to hang out. The food was good, the prices are ok and the staff were very friendly. All around incredible place.

After work drinks with friends at this iconic bar! I had a drink the boot and I adore it!

Great place to rest and hang out with live music, food, drinks, restrooms, etc. We hung out here before the Stockyards Championship Rodeo. We ordered some nachos, wings, and fries. Food was pretty good but review is more for the overall ambiance. Would recommend coming here to take a breather and hang out!

Cool spot! Lots of seating space. I love that there's live music here. The outdoor seating is also very spacious The truck bed seating is such a cute idea! We ordered Palomas, Margaritas, Beer, and Shots. Everything was pretty good! I ordered Buffalo Chicken wings and got them pretty quickly. It's a great place to hangout with friends or even alone. I would definitely visit again.

We went here for a private event and it is seriously such a fun place! There are cozy booths, outdoor hangout/play areas, and upstairs with long tables for large groups. Years ago we visited The Truckyard in Dallas. At some point I realized that this place is owned by the same people! No wonder it's a great place- these guys are spot on with knowing what a space should have to suit many types of people at once. The food, the drinks and entertainment (live music, outdoor games, mechanical bull) make this place a must go!!! The wings and loaded nachos were amazing and drinks were totally unique! Bartenders are top notch hard workers and we loved the house infused coconut rum and ancho orange tequila. They had little glass bottle flasks and tried the Wheatley Espresso Martini- so good! On a whim we also tried the Charity Blood Bag and that was sooooo good!

Came here with some friends. This is very much a place for the local "college" crowds. Didn't try any of the food. The facilities were adequate and clean. Perhaps the live entertainment could've been better. Not sure I will return.

We stopped at the brewery to pass time in the stockyards. We were pleased to find a live artists and lively crowd. We ordered drinks and sat in the courtyard area. The size of the drink cups was great!

Ample space inside and large covered beer garden in the back. Very good drinks at the bar, simple but adequate food service. Just off the main drag, a good place to rest after shopping.

Amazing spot. I recommend you try the Adelle, if they still have it in season. Great ambiance and bartender service. The food took a long time, but it was not a big issue. We took advantage of the wait and enjoyed a second drink. Do not be fooled by the old building, the drinks are great.

Stopped in for a couple of beers and to check place out. Parking is crazy, especially when you arrive when the cattle drive is happening. Oh well, it added to the fun. Nice selection of beers, good entertainment, and great people watching.

Bathrooms were 10/10. TP and soap were well stocked and the lighting was bright (which helps when you're a little tipsy). The ladies room boasted many separate stalls. Like 6-7 stalls! Who likes waiting in lines for the bathroom? Especially when you've had too much drink. Not me! That's who. You could definitely see yourself have a drunk hug with a stranger in that bathroom. But the coolest part of the bathrooms is the awesome murals/posters on the inside and outside of the stall doors. Very entertaining! Another plus is that you could easily use this bathroom if you weren't a paying customer because the employees would never know! I'll be back to use this John.

I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. We went for our friend's 40th birthday party and I had a blast! The atmosphere is really great, it was super chill and not stuffy at all. If you have kids but want to go out, this place is extremely family friendly, I saw people with kids of all ages (newborns to teenagers) . I love the decor, the live music and the food. The cheesesteaks are amazing and the drinks were delicious too. I enjoyed that the drinks came from a tap, this ensures that each drink tasted consistently great. I had the purple drank and also the mother trucker, both tasted amazing! I also enjoyed the funny restrooms, they are a real great conversation piece. This place is really great and I'm glad that I was able to finally go and experience all the fun.

My wife and I came to Dallas to get away from California. Obviously, we didn't know any better - it's worse than LA. We traveled out of town and wound up in Fort Worth, which was the Texas we were looking for. Upon wandering through the stockyards, we came upon Second Rodeo, and it was amazing. There was live music, friendly faces, and a beautiful outdoor seating area to take it all in at. The craft beers and cocktails are delicious. I loved everything about this place!

This is a great place to hang out and have a drink. Great summer vibe. This is not a dive bar like a lot of stockyards places. No table service so walk up to the bar and order. They have food options as well but I didn't try them. We really enjoyed the "porch pounder", it's a peach vodka Arnold Palmer - very refreshing. They only take cards but not a huge deal - tap pay works here. Pro tip - if it starts to get a little crowded, try the upstairs balcony, it's seems hidden enough that it's last to fill up and there is a bar nearby, great spot.

This is a great, laid-back spot for grabbing a bite and a drink. It has lots of character, especially the women's bathrooms! Plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors--it's kid-friendly and great for large parties. The staff at the bar were friendly, and I highly recommend trying the cranberry bourbon smash--it was delicious! The food was tasty, and the live music adds a fun vibe to the atmosphere. A great place to relax and enjoy good food and drinks.

My husband and I ended up at Second Rodeo at the end of a pub crawl, and we were so happy that it was our final stop. It is a fun, inviting atmosphere with lots of open space to socialize. There are so many beers to chose from but we both love their Sidewalk Flower - Lemon Cucumber Sour...especially after a hot day of walking around the Stockyards. Cheers!

The philly cheesesteak was delicious with a soft, pillowy bread and flavorful meat. The fries were crispy and wings well flavored. Service was quick and there's so much seating to choose from. On the outside patio, they had live music and it's well decorated everywhere. There's just so many flies in the inside of the area, we were constantly waving our hands to shoo them away from our food.

What a cool place to have a really tasty drink & some yummy grub. Simple offerings like Philly Cheesesteaks, Nachos, and Wings. I tried the Black Garlic Wings and the sauce was MESSY but so dang good. Portion size was large for the price of just $12 - 6 big wings and a load of fresh fries - tasty ranch! I tried their Honey Bourbon Lemonade - packed a punch and was citrusy. Big fan. They had a really diverse menu of cocktail options. Fun vibes, cool outdoor feel, big open spaces and live music. The bartenders were super sweet and funny. Would be great to bring a group here.

Love this place! It's so much fun! Great atmosphere, so many options for cold drinks, and live music! What else could you ask for!? Also love that you can walk down to the river.

This was such a fun place to visit. We went here with girlfriends and watched a few artists play music, we had such a good time. The atmosphere is laid back. It was very crowded but it is worth waiting for a seat in the courtyard. This was our favorite place at The Stockyards by far.

Great food (burgers, cheesesteaks, fries and wings). The whiskey pickle wings were the best. Fun spot for lunch in Ft. Worth stockyards

On the Stockyard district. Fun place to grab a drink, sit inside or in the inside patio or the outside patio. Sit and listen to some fine music.

In line before they closed and they wouldn't take our order. They told us "systems were shut down" but we had a friend at the window next to it and they let her order. I let them know they allowed her to order and they slammed the glass.

Super cute funky spot here in the stockyards. Live music on the weekends. Trendy with a lot of spunk. Lots of seating area for you to enjoy the one of many drinks that they have on tap! Very friendly bartenders and quick! Stop by if you're in the area.

Checked out Second Rodeo Brewing on 06/28/2023 while oot for business & I have to say it was such a cool & chill place. I really enjoyed myself! Despite the scorching Texas heat, it was very cool indoors & there was live music on the evening I stopped by. This was plenty of seating located outside & indoors. I definitely would recommend this spot for anyone in the area. Till next time, Rebecca

A fun micro pub experience. Good beer options. Food choices were limited but what was on offer was good and came out fast, at reasonable prices. Cool pics on walls. Live music. Kid friendly. Service was friendly and efficient. A joint worth checking out.

While visiting Texas with some friends, we stopped by this brewery to have some beers and hang out. This was a very chill spot. I really enjoyed all of the beers that I tried. My favorite ones were the Big Buckle IPA and their Oktoberfest. However, every beer we tried was delicious. We had a blast hanging out here for a few hours.

Chill place in the Stockyards with a nice outdoor, covered "outdoor" and indoor space. It is self-serve and offers food similar to Truck Yard (which this is affiliated with) and great beers by Dennis Wehrmann, the former owner of Franconia brewing and the brains behind Beard Science and now this place. Those two factors together make sure there's a good time to be had!

Fun experience here! Just came by for a few quick drinks after walking around the Stockyards. The venue itself has an indoor section which has a bit of a darker ambiance. In contrast, there is an indoor/outdoor sitting area which brings in a lot of natural light. We decided to sit outside since it felt more spacious and inviting. Fans are on spread across to keep air circulating. There's also a food window where you can get food to snack on. The drink menu had a lot of great options and they come in a 16 oz. cup. There was live music which makes it a great place to come and just have a few drinks. Overall, a great place to stop by if you're visiting the stockyards. Definitely want to come here again and try some of their other cocktails and maybe some wings.

We watched the cattle drive on a very hot day and needed to cool down a bit, so we went to Second Rodeo Brewing! We all had beers or something from the cocktail menu. I don't drink beer and am not sure how good the selection was. I did enjoy my cocktail though! There was no table service. We grabbed a table and ordered and paid at the bar. There's a cool vibe. We weren't there long but everything was fine while we were there!

Absolutely love this place. We could have sat here all day. They had great drinks, live band and food looked amazing. Our bartenders were super fast, friendly and knowledgeable. We will be back for a Second Rodeo!

Visually stimulating decor and live music make a great place to meet up. We didn't eat but the beer selection was solid. The Roll Dog Amber was a great balance of malty sweetness and hoppy bitter. Not to heavy on a hot day, just right. It was hot that day and swamp coolers were cranking in the backyard. It made it a little loud but there was room to get away from them. Great service at the bar and credit cards only is plus.

Fun bar with good vibes! I wouldn't go here to eat dinner since the menu is very minimal. This place is more for the dancing, music, and drinks. Price is pretty reasonable compared to surrounding restaurants! Bar is very speedy too. Super cool place, definitely recommend.

Almost a rodeo within itself, Second Rodeo is the perfect meeting spot for drinks and some out-of-this-world people watching in the Stockyards. As a Fort Worth native, I am always shocked to see Fort Worth's transformation into somewhat of a tourist destination every time I'm back in town, and Second Rodeo is a testament to this growth. Immaculately detailed and decorated to look like a dusty West Texas truck yard, this spot features huge jugs of margs and ranch waters, set against live music on their huge patio. A true party on the Northside, I have a feeling we'll be back.

This place is amazing! We went on a random Tuesday afternoon/early evening and there was live music, plenty of seating, as well as, some people watching. The bartenders were exceptional!! Not only were the drinks on point, they noticed I had a dog and got us some treats, a water bowl, and some ice! Great atmosphere, service, drinks, and we only had French fries and they were also good! Highly recommend this place!

Went for drinks and music on a Thursday afternoon. All good. Relaxing atmosphere nice folks. Porch pounder drink is excellent a must for combating the Texas heat. Excellent selection of cold beer too. Don't forget to 'tip' the musicians. Noise level not bad... still can have a conversation.

Love this spot! We stopped in for some wings and drinks. Had a great time! They have live music! The atmosphere is fun! You get all kinds of people, locals and tourist. Super close to the cattle drive walk. Which start promptly 1130 and 4 (weather permitting). But make sure you're on time because it the entire thing only last a couple minutes. You're allowed to take drinks out and walk around. I recommend parking at the hotel nearby, it's only a few bucks and definitely worth it unless you enjoy driving around searching for a parking spot:(

Pretty much the coolest brewery you can visit in the DFW area. We always have so much fun when me and the fam visit. If your are visiting the StockYards this a MUST visit for sure. So much to see inside and outside. Probably one of the few places when we take our friends here is to tell them check out the bathrooms The main area is a super cool atrium, they seem to always have some very cool live music. Beer and food is always decent. The workers are always super fun and entertaining. Great service every time we go!

Great environment, awesome location huge food was better than expected staff was super friendly and helpful

Great stop on our road trip. They don't have places like this where we live in So. Cal but they should. Wish we could take the wings and fries with us. Full fun day with friends and family.

This place was very fun for my friend and I to hang out and it was a cool concept! Definitely one of the best bars at the Stockyards. The boot cup was so fun to have my Froze in!! It was also very yummy!!

This place has live music everyday almost and the vibe/ambiance is amazingly chill. There are some Food options inside. There's games to play. And nice chairs for listening to music in the large open space. The bartenders are attentive and friendly. The beer is tasty and there are many options.
