Silver Branch Lagerhaus & Biergarten

Decent beer and food, good service, overpriced. The beers are good. I had a kölsch that was just right for a warm summer night, cold, not too sweet, and with the slightest edge. Worthy of its namesake style on the Rhine. Atmosphere was pleasant in the outdoor passageway above the rail station. Loud trains pass by, but this adds to the ambience for me. Service was good. You order off a QR but everything was efficient, attentive, and welcoming but not cloying. Two beers and a bretzel cost over twenty five bucks here including tip. This deterred me from buying more beer or making a larger purchase to take away, full stop. Psychology being what it is, I probably would have spent more overall if the prices were slightly lower.

This place is a local brewery in a sort of pseudo-German beer hall setting, that also has outside tables for nice days. QR codes are at the tables for ordering, and the food is your standard brewery fare (salads, wings, sandwiches, etc). The wings were pretty good, and both my partner and I ordered chicken Caesar salads which were fine, nothing great, but good enough. The QR code ordering method works well for ordering in terms of efficiency, but when they omitted anchovies from our salads I had to go hunt a staff member down to correct it. Other than that though it’s a good place to go for some bar food or meet with friends after work etc. We will probably be back,

Lovely Oktoberfest and their Glass Castle on Lukr pour was outstanding. Overall enjoyed my experience, though I had an issue with patrons telling me “we reserved these seats” and after the interaction another patron said he had the other seat. Literally no one is there, there are open tables. The person who interacted with me should have been kicked out, but I left and the kid and his girl sat down. Not really uplifting and made me highly uncomfortable.

I had a chance to eat at, and have an event catered by Silver Branch. Both experiences were fantastic. When I ate there, the atmosphere was good, the food came out quickly, and was tasty. When I had them cater an event, Christian personally delivered the pizzas, made set up easy, and everyone there enjoyed the food! Definitely recommend Silver Branch!

Stopped in last night and so many vegetarian options thank you!! Good food, cosmo was delicious and staff was great sat at the bar and the bar tender forgot her name was so friendly !! Thank you

Food is overpriced for what you get. Good quality beer but fairly limited selection (their brand only). Wait staff are friendly. Plenty of TVs to watch sports and plenty of seating.

We enjoyed the beer and the Oktoberfest. Music was good. The reason for rating is that the bartender tipped herself the highest amount when she ran my card for a 6-pack to go. That was not right. I may not go back, as a result. UPDATE: We went back. Food was good. Service was great. We would go back again.

Cool place that specializes in European style beers. I like the ordering system, everything is done via QR code and online ordering and they just bring it to your table. Had a few small pours, a pint, and a pretzel. The pretzel was good as were most of the beers. I especially enjoyed the English Mild. As an added point to their benefit when I ordered the stout and ended up disliking it the staff were kind enough to replace it with a different beer at no charge. That's good customer service if I've seen it.

Silver Branch is my favorite brewery in the DC area. They are a must visit, and conveniently only a block away from the Silver Spring Metro Station (Red Line). They have an excellent line up of beers that they rotate throughout the year, but frequently have the same ones from year to year, so you get both variety and consistency. They also sport a variety of branded beer glasses so beers are usually served in the appropriate glass. My favorite beers are their European-inspired ones, especially anything German-style. I've visited a few times over the years and I was glad to see they expanded their food menu somewhat recently to include sandwiches, bowls, and wings. They have a large indoor area plus a large outdoor patio. Service is basic; you order via your phone and they drop off the items. On my recent visit, I got the Steak Sandwich with chips: flank steak with garlic aioli, sundried tomatoes, red onion, and English cheddar cheese served on a toasted baguette. It was delicious and indulgent. My Keller Door beer (Franconian-Style Kellerbier) was also delicious.

I had such a great time with my friends at SBBC on Saturday night. When we got there it was a little after 8, and it was pleasantly busy, definitely not crowded, so we were very comfortable splitting ourselves among 3 high tables so we could walk around and get plenty of mingling amongst ourselves. The bartenders are really nice and friendly, I was able to try a sample of a beer before I decided to go with another. The soft pretzels are warm, large and delicious, and the accompanying beer cheese and stoneground mustard made it even better. SBBC has a really laidback, chill vibe, and it looks like it would be great to sit outside in the biergarten area in the summer. I don't make it out to Silver Spring too often, but next time I do I'll want to make sure to return here.

Silver Branch is better than your typical brewery spot. Their beers are tasty and offer a great seasonal selection. But I really like that they have a really good food menu. I find myself hungry when I go to brew pubs and food options can be inconsistent. We had both their steak and chicken tacos. Authentic and delicious. Their sides of guacamole were also nicely seasoned and chunky. The food ordering is handled via QR code to a web app. Nice and handy, so you aren't constantly flagging a server. Dogs are welcome and they have ample space both inside and on their outdoor patio. Conveniently located near a parking garage.

Been here a couple times and it doesn't disappoint with the quality of beer. They have a huge taproom with great service and variety of beers and food options. The ambiance is decent and they have ample amount of space to accommodate large crowds. Definitely recommend stopping by to try them if you are in the Silver Spring downtown area!

We found out about this place while having beers and conversing with a couple of folks at another local spot. I'm so glad that I initiated a conversation with them, because Silver Branch Brewing Company has it going on. First, the beer "garden' has a very chill, relaxed vibe going on. It's a great spot to hang and catch up with a group of friends, especially because it's super close to the Silver Spring metro station and bus depot. Fortunately for us, Silver Branch was not crowed at all so we had plenty of room outside. If the outdoors section is packed, the indoors component of the spot is very large. Silver Branch has a AMAZING list of various brews so everyone should be able to find something that they will like. If beer isn't your thing, Silver Branch has a full bar and an interesting cocktail list. Also, there is a full menu with various food items at a reasonable prices. During our visit, I went with an order of chicken nachos (about $17), and the portion size was VERY generous. I think one order of the nachos can accommodate 2-3 people...depending on your hunger/hangry levels. Overall, I thought all of the servers were very nice, which it made the drinking/dining experience all the more nicer. I do not remember a single time where I had to flag down a server for anything. While I had a blast, I did have one (very) minor issue that is more of a "me" issue than a Silver Branch issue. Silver Branch's ordering system is set up where you visit a website and make all of your purchases through that website. I will say that this makes things a bit convenient because you do not have to flag down a waiter/waitress to place an order. However, I'm the type of person who likes to see all of my options on one or two pages (e.g., on a physical menu) without having to scroll because it makes it easier to compare items. Looking back, I guess I could have asked if Silver Branch has physical menus, but the potential lack of physical menus is/was not a dealbreaker. I'm looking forward to trying more beers at Silver Branch.

When traveling, my favorite thing to seek out is breweries. For a recent class reunion, a friend recommended we have a group event at Silver Branch Brewing due their excellent selection of beer and friendly ambience. Having visited, I agreed completely! We ended up having an amazing time. We arrived shortly after opening and there were plenty of tables for us to spread out. Many people ordered food and they had a robust menu of sharable appetizers and full course meals. They have a large biergarten area outside nearby the Metro stop, so even though this is outside of the city it's easy to get here or get home safely after having a few. Inside is a mostly German inspired decor, with long large tables, flags from the ceilings, artwork, large open windows, and a display of merchandise for sale and another of glassware and awards won. That day they also had a live trio playing Bavarian drinking and dancing songs. Everyone had a great time, even the kids. This brewery seems to have a lot of fun social events as well. As part of their party, they had a speed Jenga tournament which a friend and I participated in and got second place! GM Daniel introduced himself and gave us a discount on our tabs regardless of not taking the title. Also thank you for the sticker swap and telling us a bit about the brewery. Besides hanging with old friends, I absolutely loved the beer! Again, mainly German and European styles abound here, but they also have all the popular American staples. I tried the two fixed flights they have, making some substitutions. Their glassware and logo design is just lovely, I even got to meet the artist of the glass I purchased. I love how each style has a paired correct glass to go with it, whether it be pilsner, pint, or stein. Beer was also excellent quality for the price. They also have canned selections ready to take home. (One personal note I have to mention but don't want to detract from all the positives - I had the cheesesteak sandwich and did not feel after it. Whether it was an issue with the mayo, meat, cheese, or other I don't know.) Again, we all had a wonderful afternoon spent here. If you're a beer fan, make an effort to come in. Prost!

We had a few great beers. Food was pretty good, fairly priced and straightforward. Great service and a decent location. It's a laid-back, somewhat quiet place which was nice for a late afternoon to decompress before heading on to other things.

Silver Branch is a fun brewery. It's actually hard for me to drink beer these days but I love their Squeegee Master series, which I can still drink with ease. The Dazed and Confused, which had mango and guava, is my favorite. The Rose Hip & Raspberry version is also nice. Very easy sipping, especially for this girl, who can usually only have one sip of beer. I recently had a sip of the old fashioned, and liked it, so I'm glad they do good cocktails for those who prefer spirits. For food, the quesadillas hit perfectly. But the chicken mango bao is also delightful. And I like the pretzel. Buffalo cauliflower was sadly a miss though. Service is always welcoming and friendly. I'm looking forward to returning.

This place is in a great location and has the feel of a good trendy brewery. I love the vibe every time I come here. Ordering is done at your table and you never have to wait long for drinks and food. It takes as long as it would take to pour and bring over to you. Something I appreciate no matter how busy they are. The food is pretty good for bar food. No complaints at the amount of food given nor the quality. Very good food and drinks here.

They've got a large indoor space with a big screen projector playing the big game, large back room for private events and celebrations (a baby shower was going on during our afternoon visit), and a nice outdoor patio. Staff were friendly and fast. They had your standard bar food (pretzels, quesadillas, nachos) with sandwiches, salads, and other options. We really enjoyed their food! The beer was also really tasty - we ended up getting a flight and liking most of them so much that we ended up getting a full pour of a few of them. Great spot!

The beer here is always amazing and consistent. Staff is friendly. They do cool seasonal events. When I lived in MD I frequented this brewery. Highly recommend!!

Stopped here on the way to Fedex field for a concert. Sat at the bar. We had a specific bartender tend to us and he was very knowledgeable, friendly and tentative. They have a great beer selection there and lots of beer to go. Large food menu as well and quite tasty. Huge indoor seating area and a decent sized outdoor seating area as well.

You have to pay at the public lot on Saturday now, The Cincinnati chili has been replaced by Cowboy chili.

Nice beer garden in downtown Silver Spring. There were a lot of people celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Order beers or food from your phone and items are brought to your table. We wished there was a cider option. Quick walk from the parking garage.

Great place! All they can do better is add some real non alcoholic beers, bring back the pffeferjager / landjager, and make the shroominator bowl less spicy. It is TOO spicy it hurts my mouth!! Or at least add the option to get it with reduced spice. Otherwise fantastic.

Heads up: They use the QR menu and bring the food to the table thing. We swung by Silver Branch, which is very convenient in downtown silver spring, for brunch as we'll be moving to Silver Spring soon and really enjoyed our time. After finding a table to sit down at, we scanned the QR code and perused the menu. I ordered the Mango Habanero chicken sandwich and my partner the Teriyaki bao buns. We split a big pretzel too and ordered two beers, Ruby dragon and Metro Gnome respectively. Everything got rave reviews and the service was efficient and friendly. We rounded out our meal with small pour of two Squeegee beers and really liked these as well. I frankly loved they have some of their can art in poster form and the other merch looked real good too. I'm very intrigued to see if there's a photo of which poster is in which tube, because the handwritten label was a bit tricky to read. We loved the ambiance and will be back!

I was here for a friend's farewell celebration -- first time too! It's a nice spacious place with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. And its proximity to the metro is excellent. So we could sit wherever we wanted, and were able to easily order after scanning the QR code. I had a hot toddy-ish drink and a rather strong punch, along with some delicious bao buns. They added this habanero sauce that added quite a kick! I was impressed. I appreciated that there was a free water station right near the entrance, and aside from delivering food and drinks, they definitely take measures to be as contactless as possible -- all the while being friendly and efficient! It's definitely a great spot for big groups and happy hours and I look forward to returning soon!

Silver Branch is a nice space in Silver Spring and apparently very popular. You order using the app and they bring your order to the table. I got a flight of five beers. The beer was just ok in my opinion. The Ruby was the best of the bunch. It was a little bit of an unwelcoming experience just because of ordering from the app and the lack of any real interaction with the staff. I suppose many would appreciate this though.

Good vibes, friendly service, and great beer. Checked out the location after discovering one of their canned beers (the squeegee) at a liquor store. Summary of Findings - They use the whole QR menu and bring the food to the table process. I know some people like it and some people don't. Service was speedy and friendly overall - Their beer selection is large and good! There seems to be a German influence in their tap selection - The food is solid. I enjoyed the teriyaki steak baos and the nachos, but was kind of disappointed with the Cuban sandwich. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. They have a lot of extra offerings. They happened to have live music when we visited and they also have a nice biergarten area. Family friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend coming for a visit!

(4) ~ very good overall beer ** Dr. Juicy IPA = (4) very good ** Mundo Especial = (4) very good

Was super impressed with the beers. Ambiance was cool. I picked 3 beers and had the bartender add his favorites. The Rye IPA was awesome. I don't usually like Tippels but theirs was very enjoyable. Overall a great experience and a good price.

Welp, when I visited Silver Branch two years ago, I had a very meh experience and agreed with a fellow yelper, "I would be surprised if Silver Branch is still there in two years." Eating my words, because not only are they still there, but they are a thriving pinnacle of the Silver Spring area, creating community through their ambiance. Returning visit was based upon having tickets to a concert nearby & Silver Branch being included on the DC Pub Pass, so they seemed like a good pre-game choice. We parked at a garage nearby (at cost)- quick walk over, seated ourselves, and were prompted to order at our selected table via QR code- though the very friendly staff was nice about us approaching the bar to request samples before ordering back at our table. We selected the Cosmic Harvest Rye IPA (4/5stars) & Dr. Juicy NE IPA (4/5stars)- average brewery prices- Glad to have the return visit to improve my impression of them, probably wouldn't go out of my way to continually visit just because of distance from our home, but was nice for a night out- would return again pre-concert.

The service was good. But the cheese steak sandwich had more mushroom than steak. Was not worth the $16.

Used to love Silver Branch and it used to be my go-to beer bar. Lately though they've started broadcasting football on every screen in the bar, including the giant screen at the back. Add in the sounds of the game coming from every speaker and it really changes the vibe of the bar-- there are no seats where you can escape and have a conversation without competing with the sound of the game. I've found myself avoiding Silver Branch on nights when I might have otherwise popped in for a quick beer after work. Certainly up to them if they want to turn into a sports bar, but it's a vibe I don't care for and lately I've found myself going to Baby Cat instead.

Been there several times. When I was there for the first time, I had to put my card info for online menu/order so it took some time but after that, it was more smooth and faster to order. The beer flight was fun. Our favorite is cloud nine, which you can get for $5.95 during happy hours. For a cocktail lover like me, there are some interesting options. I've tried mango guava margarita and daiquiri, which were nicely balanced and not too sweet. Fresh pretzel with beer cheese is my favorite. Other meals were okay, nothing special. But, I found the mayo was too much on the sandwich buns. The service is generally good. There are in/outside table, high chairs, and bar tables, and the place is spacious and comfortable, not too loud.

Had a very nice casual , family friendly 21st birthday celebration there for about 30 people . We went in the night b4 and Becca held a few tables for us for the following day . Everything went extremely well . Ordered a few trays of tacos and kept the drinks flowing . The teens had a blast playing games and the overall vibe couldn't have been better . Shout out to the kitchen esp . Uriel , Becca and Jonah . I liked the fact that you can mingle or sit . We brought our own cake and had a great time !! Thank you Silver Branch

I was down in Maryland for work and this spot quickly became my go to in my free time. Great spot with good food and a fantastic selection of beer. If you're lucky you'll get Christian and Emma serving you who are an awesome duo. Shoutout to Ali and Meredith also. It's right by the train station so you can grab a quick beer and a bite before heading into DC. You honestly cant go wrong checking out this spot

This place is just excellent in so many ways! In addition to the beers (which my beer drinking friends say are great), they have a full bar and great cocktails at (DMV-adjusted) reasonable prices. In addition to plenty of seating inside (and a fantastic Gen X soundtrack going at all times), there are a bunch of long open tables outside the "Biergarten." I've grown to enjoy the self-serve tabs at each table - just scan a QR and enter a credit card and voila! the drinks appear. This makes it easy for a group to not fight over the bill, such as when I had an impromptu bday party with 16 of my closest friends there. It was basically a perfect place for that kind of gathering. Another good thing is the parking situation - the MoCo Cameron St garage is super close and free on the weekends. My only quibble is that it's really family friendly and I prefer my drinking with more cursing and coarse jokes and less children. But that's just me, and it's an obvious draw for parents looking to grab a beer.

I'm not very knowledgeable in beer but I think this place has a great variety in the brews they serve. My favorite is Dr. Juicy. Outside of the beer, they have good food; I especially like their Bavarian pretzel and the MD BBQ sandwich, they're both really good, but I'd only get the pretzel if you're not that hungry. The water is self serve, which I feel is convenient. The other menu item I'll mention is their lychee martini; truly top tier, as many beverages/foods with lychee in it are. Seriously, try it. Both times that I've been there, there was a trivia night going on during my time there. I participated in one of them and it definitely wasn't easy, so if you like challenging trivia, Wednesdays would be the best day to go. The place is always bustling but not super packed, so you (and any companions you have) can find seats pretty easily and have a nice chat. Definitely nice for a drink after work.

Relaxing place to chill with a beer whether it's after work on a weekday or hanging out with friends on a weekend. The area is nice. Very convenient to reach. Right next to Silver Spring metro station. But not noisy. There is plenty of outdoor seating and indoor seating. Tonne of beer options and some food options. The service was quick and friendly. There are beers and wines to go. A decent selection to chose from. Go all the way towards the back. Parking is easy. You can either park on the street or go to the county garage just steps away. Garage parking is free on weekends and after 6pm on weekdays. You can also reserve outside space for private parties.

Steak sandwich was phenomenal. You're allowed to bring your dogs outside and there's plenty of outdoor seating. Good for groups, easy individual tabs electronically. Literally right on top of the metro stop (just a few feet away). They seem to have trivia nights and lots of board games as well.

Went yesterday after work for a pre-dinner drink. I came here before for a work event and wanted to check it out again. It is convenient as it is near the metro or there is a public parking garage up there street. There is plenty of seating inside and out. I thought there was some happy hour deals but did not see any. You order food and drinks through the QR code to a website, which was fine. Out of the both times I came here, the service was impeccable! We got a couple of beers and a chicken quesadilla to hold us over before dinner. There is a good selection of beers and even some cocktails. The food selection is pretty minimal and nothing special. I would definitely come back and not because it is close to work!

The ambiance and location is great! Nice outdoor seating that is quiet despite being right by the metro. Also, I love all of the hidden gnomes in the shop. Service is always fast and the food and beer are quite good. The beer selection is larger than other breweries in the area and you are bound to find something you like. They also usually have events so swing by for some fun!

Delicious drinks and I absolutely love the pizza! The crust is so tasty, flavorful and clearly made in house! The razzle dazzle drink is my favorite and love the fries. Great happy hour specials too! Fun place

Prior to the lock down I would rarely do take out but during these trying times it's good to support local businesses. I also liked how we could stock up on some pantry essentials like bread flour and baking yeast. I saw on the website they have toilet paper and coffee available too. The online ordering interface is pretty straight forward. As far as logistics go the cutoff time for same day delivery is 3 pm. There seems to be a wide delivery window from 4pm - 9pm, but both times we've tried it our order arrived shortly after 4 pm. Around 4 pm they texted us a delivery window estimate. My favorite has been the chicken tacos. The tres leches cake was pretty tasty too.

I am obsessed with Silver Branch Brewing Company! This place is 100% my vibe and it was one of those awesome neighborhood spots that make you wanting to come back for more. My husband and I were visiting family on the East coast and ended up coming here. So happy we did! From the moment we walked up everything was fun and welcoming! The staff was really friendly and helped us get situated. They helped up access the menu which was all online. Everything from beers to food can be ordered with the QR code or through the server which was great! They had a big selection of all different types of beers, from IPAs to pilsners. All the beers were great and they had a different type of beer for everyone! I am not sure if they have a set or rotating menu, but when we went we got the tri-tip sandwich and the tri-tip quesadilla. You can't go wrong with yummy slow roasted tri-tip! My husband and I typically gravitate to breweries like these and we are so happy we got to try out this place! Love it!

Really fun place with live trivia night, good music and bus along crowd. Their Beer collection is fantastic with good sides for food as well!

Bad experience this afternoon. I waited over a half hour for a sandwich after my friend's order arrived. There was no explanation when it finally arrived. This was my first time eating there and afraid it will be my last. The server took the charge off the bill but I would have preferred an honest explanation and apology.

Good beer! Cool atmosphere and friendly staff! Definitely a cool place to chill and come with friends! I highly recommend this place!

Wanted to grab a drink before a show at the Fillmore and we just found out about this spot. We parked at a public garage a few blocks away and walked over. Definitely the first brewery I've seen in a building like this but their space is pretty big inside and out. We decided to take a table inside since it was more spread out. As soon as we sat, a server came and got us water glasses and offered help with menu questions. We got their menu/ordering system through a QR code on the table. We ordered 2 pretzels, tacos, nachos, the Thunder Gnome, Cosmic Summer, and the Glass Castle. The pretzels and beer cheese were super good. They were definitely fresh baked and the beer cheese was a great compliment, not like the neon yellow can cheese. Nachos were also solid, good amount of chicken, cheese, and jalapeños. The tacos were ok, weak tortillas, the meat fell through each one and salsas didn't really bring any spice. Glass Castle was my favorite of the beers, solid refreshing Pilsner. The food is pretty solid, better than a lot of breweries and the service is top notch!

Dead on a Sunday afternoon. We walked in and there were maybe 3-4 groups present. Lots of beers to choose from and lots of variety. There are board games in the back for a good time. Large space, open, brewery in the back. Everything was fairly clean. Service was good, they were good on timing for refills. Menus were easy to navigate. You can do 6 beers for the flight. My favorite beer was the squeeze master with green mango and lime. It was a good sour with salty flavor. It was such a good taste and I had 3 jugs of it! The rest of the table ended up getting one each too after they tried mine. Seriously a great surprising find for my taste buds. Will be back for that specific beer. Happy drinking!

This place has good service and food. Good draft selection and nachos were tasty. Location and interior is nice as well. Although when I went there were so many kids. So if that's not your vibe I don't recommend it.

I ordered the holiday beer which was tasty. I enjoyed being able to ask for a sample before ordering a beer. The steak quesadilla was good, the bao buns were good but be warned they are very spicy. The yellow habanero sauce is a bit overpowering.

This is a fun, bustling 'biergarten'-type brewery, with a large outdoor seating area, as well as ample indoor seating space. Keep in mind, the servers are not wearing masks at this point. The beer was great (though we received our drinks rather late, after getting our food; they were very busy--and short-staffed-- on a Friday evening). However, the food was a bit disappointing. I was happy that this brewery has an actual kitchen, rather than the food trucks that you find in most other breweries (hence, you can be sure they will serve food when you arrive). Nonetheless, the pretzel was extremely (almost intolerably) salty. And the hot dogs were not hot at all! I sent the first order back, thinking they must have made a mistake, but my replacement was also cold/lukewarm in temperature, so I presume this is how they usually serve them. They come with a side of potato chips and strange-tasting (and rather slimy) pickles of some sort. I did not really enjoy any of that. Also, it was difficult to find parking (there is no parking lot associated with the brewery; you have to search for public parking and its not the easiest thing to find). I would return for the overall ambiance and the drinks, but probably would skip the food.

Solid brewery with various beer, wine, liquor, tea, coffee, games, and munchies such as $5 endless popcorn. I had the Glass Castle and enjoyed the crisp finish. Disclaimer: I'm no beer connoisseur; I just like beer so this review is for the overall experience. Best perk: you can bring your own food! Bench seating is a bit weird; the tables are narrow and the benches often fall backwards but it's still a great hangout spot. It can be difficult to locate but they have a great outdoor patio and ample seating. It's located close to the metro which makes it a great meeting spot. Overall, great place to enjoy beer and there's something for everyone to sip on whether it's beer or tea.

Fun new brewery in Silver Spring! This location is a little tricky to get to if you don't live in silver spring because parking is limited. There are a few parking garages around. I was there for about 2.5 hours and it cost $16 for parking...so you should take public transportation or Lyft. As for the location itself, it is a very large space and is quite open and inviting. They have quite a few beers on tap, you can also buy cans and fill growlers to go! They have some food to snack on but not a huge menu...they have unlimited popcorn for $5. Sausages and pretzels and if you don't want one of their snacks...you can bring your own food in or order take out and have it delivered to you there!! So many options! You need to check this place out, they even have corn hole!!!

Food is great beers are many and tasty. Staff is professional, knowledgeable about the beer and food, friendly and courteous. Overall a great experience and I would recommend this place to everyone. Ambiance was great for family friendly gatherings!

Silver Branch is another new amazing brewery in Silver Spring. They have great flagship as well as speciality beers. Overall, it's European themed and since COVID they have taken up much of Metro Plaza's outdoor area as a beer garden and have had great events like Oktoberfest and a Halloween dog costume contest. Last year we took advantage of the Year of Beer where we got to take home a free four or six of beer of our choice every month. Their food is also great, especially the taco Tuesday deal. We definitely plan to come back many more times.
