I had a great experience at The Brass Tap in Richardson. The patio was awesome, the servers were quick and friendly, and shoutout to the bartender who went above and beyond to craft a customized Old Fashioned - really appreciated the extra touch!

Very good and relaxing place to dine and have a nice drink. This place has about 20+ beers on tap and the food is amazing. I will be coming back here again. I ordered the chicken salad and the chicken was fried too perfection, it was delicious. A must try spot

We came in for lunch and Summer took care of our group. She was funny, engaging and attentive. Made great suggestions for one of our pickier friends. Definitely coming back k to see her!

The place was crowded on a Wednesday. Too many guests and too few waiters to serve us. They were short of plates and we had to wait for the plates although the appetizers arrived. Since plates were getting washed, which was weird. Food quality and portion sizes were reasonable. Exhaustive drinks and draft beer menu. Good place for gatherings and hangouts.

Came in a few months ago and wasn't very impressed. Decided to give this place another try and OH MAN it's like a night and day difference. You can tell whoever is running this place truly cares and has put in a lot of effort to make this a place people will want to come back to. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted at the door with a smile. I enjoyed their 4th of July slider special which was AMAZING. Additionally, we tried the steak sandwich with the gilroy garlic fries along with several items off their limited time Aloha menu - everything was super fresh, hot and YUMMY! Particularly the kalua pork sliders. Everything was cooked perfectly and came out very fast. Our service was also great; server was friendly and attentive. In fact, all of their staff was great! Everyone was smiling and actually seemed happy to be there. We were recommended several cocktails - my personal favorite was the new coconut daydream cocktail (legit had me daydreaming of a tropical vacay). All of the menu items were a great price and large portion sizes too! The Atmosphere was also perfect - very bright and airy. Everything was perfectly clean. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. 10/10 experience! I actually cannot wait to come back again very soon. For sure going to be my new go-to hangout spot! (They also have a verity of events going on weekly - can't wait to come and try out Jeopardy and Karaoke!!).

Seems like a chill spot. Mainly catered to the younger crowds who likely reside in the living spaces above. Reminds me of a similar vibe from Austin Ranch and their dive Gecko. Expected more craft beer but honestly was overwhelmed by the menu and likely overlooked it. Seems to have a variety of options. Service was nice and very helpful. Slow for a Saturday but we are getting older and I’m guessing 10pm is the new 8pm. Lol

We love coming here for the good drinks and vibes! We always sit in Summer's section! She takes really great care of us every time! Grab an old fashioned, some wings and see Summer!

Great food amazing service, for my 1st visit here was a good experience. Lots of sports on the many tv's.

On a recent work trip, The Brass Tap was the unofficial watering hole among my coworkers. It's a fun spot. Definitely giving sports bar. There was no shortage of TVs and all kinds of sports were playing. Can't speak to the food since I never had any during the times I was there, but I had a great time at the establishment nonetheless. They have a full bar and huge list of taps with all types of beer, cider, and sours. Service from wait staff members was consistently good.

took full advantage of their happy hour with coworkers and ordered the cheeseburger. very tasty and a great value. great hangout for various crowds. service was great!

We like this location given the proximity to the area where they have live music on spring weekends. We came for dinner and found it to be an ok experience this time. We sat outside as the heat wasn't that bad yet. Service was a bit slow for both food and drinks and we're assuming they were short staffed. I had the hot honey pepperoni pizza. It had good flavor. My husband had the toasted Italian sandwich and thought it was good.

We sat outside on Tuesday trivia night. We were worried we would be forgotten since we were sitting outside. But we were pleasantly surprised the service was great! He never forgot to check on us. We will be back.

Tried the chicken strip special om Thursday and the waiter was so nice he customized it for me. He dipped them in sweet honey BBQ and sprinkled the bourbon run on top.....AMAZING!!!! The vibe and atmosphere is always friendly and amazing.

I had lunch here for the first time the other day and it was fairly quiet. Our server was ok but forgot to bring a water for my friend. I ordered the bbq chicken pizza and she got the grilled poblano chicken tacos. The prices were reasonable but the food was just ok. Pretty standard bar food. I would like to try more things on the menu but so far im not impressed. As of right now, i prefer good union, tricky fish or char'd to this spot, but well see. It def beats fernandos and cool greens. Also my friend got a half and half that was really sweet. Im always worried when a place has too large of a menu bc they cant make everything fresh. How much of it is frozen stuff thats just being reheated? Last thought- this pizza reminded me of mod pizza, but theirs is better. I think its the thin crust.

I didn't try any food but had a margarita. It was really tasty but barely gave me a buzz. The place was well kept and clean but the tables not aligned with the low hanging lights bothered me lol, one guy walked in and hit his head on the lights.

Stopped by on a late Sunday afternoon. If you are like me and hate crowds, this is a perfect place. We sat outside which is always a North Texas treat in February! We ate simple with "The Trio Dips & Chips. I loved the thin crispy chips - but I was disappointed with the serving size of the dips. Little baby black plastic cups. Not impressed. Husband had a Velvet Hammer and I had fun with the Margarita Flight! I thought it was priced fairly. The Classic ended up my favorite and the Dragon Fruit got last! Service was attentive! It's worth it for a chill Sunday!

Came to eat and play some trivia. Ordered the Italian sandwich. I took a bite and then put it down, it rolled over and i saw some black on it. MOLDY! yes, they served me a moldy bun. They offered me something else for free. No thanks I will skip it, and the whole place in future. Thanks but no thanks.

Brisket and jalapeño grilled cheese on Texas toast , either bbq sauce and red onion... God bless Texas and all of its cultures That's is all

The Brass Tap is a nice new addition to the Cityline area. The other bar on the same street has similar vibes (sports bar, live music/DJ) but The Brass Tap has it beat. We came in on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy with college football fans and live music. Sitting inside when there's live music is loud, but they do have a patio. Service was friendly. They are a beer bar so they've got lots of beers on tap, but I'm not a beer girl. They've got a good variety of bar food (apps, chicken, fish, tacos, pizza, flatbreads) and we enjoyed what we tried, the chicken nachos and the chicken tender basket. The chicken on the nachos was nicely seasoned and the jalapeños on them were fresh and spicy! The chicken tenders and fries seemed pretty high quality. Sometimes at bars you'll get obviously frozen breaded chicken strips, and these didn't taste like that. They seemed fresher. We all tried The Weekender cocktail, which was vodka with a variety of fruit juice or liquor, and it just tasted like orange juice. Not the worst and not gross, but not exactly what it claimed to be. I'll probably be back to give it another try. I'd say skip the cocktails and order your tried-and-true bar drink. Or a beer! And try the food!

I've been here twice already and every time the service is on point. They have plenty of TVs and great selection of beers and other alcoholic options so this makes it a great place to watch a game. The food is good to and their wings are really great. Burgers a good sized and flavorful. Also, the mimosa sampler for brunch is well worth the value. Highly recommend checking them out.

I kept seeing this advertisement for Brass Tap on Instagram for the $7 brunch skillet. The picture looked AMAZING! I didn't feel like making breakfast Saturday so I said whelp let's go try this brunch skillet...Bad idea. Now, I sat at the bar and the amazing bartender, Jade, took my order and got me set up with some cold water. He was great. The place is more like a sports bar so most patrons were at the bar watching sports on the TVs. I ordered based off the picture of fluffy eggs and crispy pieces of bacon and sausage. Named the Southwest skillet, I figured there'd be some onions and peppers included in the dish. I was sadly, sadly mistaken. Jade brought over my skillet which was lukewarm with thin, nearly scorched eggs. No onions, no peppers, just drowned in a lot of salty cheese. I ate what I could while drinking water so I wouldn't run up my blood pressure but I doubt I'll be back. Luckily the skillet was only $7 so my pockets weren't hurt but my feelings were.

All we did was order a couple of beers to kill some time till our next appointment but my wife and I had some great conversation with the Bartender who just returned from Japan. She's a Super Star. She's very Loyal and ensures everything is in tip-top shape. As a Brass Tapper who was originally part of the BT Allen Membership Club I was impressed with the location and the atmosphere at this particular location.

Good food and service, but very loud!! Bad TV reception spoiled watching a championship game!!

The Brass Tap at best in Cityline is mediocre at best, the place wasn't busy and the workers were more concerned about talking to each other. I sat at the bar and had to wait on my over priced beers, I had to ask for menus. To me it's all show and no go, I live across the street and it's too bad I won't be back.

Mike D.

Stopped in this Brass Tap location for a bite to eat on a Sat. We sat ourselves down at a table right in the middle. We sat there for 15 minutes with no contact from staff. On many occasions some of the staff walked right by us. We got up to leave and I made a point of telling the floor manager that we were leaving due to the fact no one wanted to serve us. Instead of saying something along the lines of, I can fix this or let me try and help. No, all we got was an ok. We love the Brass Tap off 190 in Sachse. We not be back to this Richardson location.

Came in on a Sunday afternoon, not overly crowded and a great spot to watch football. Service was good but our waitress didn't know a few things that seemed surprising, maybe she's new, idk. We ordered the wings and did the Cajun dry rub... they were amazing! Cooked to perfection, not greasy, and overall great flavor! I ordered the brisket grilled cheese and subbed fries for brussel sprouts. The sandwich was fire but the brussels were lacking. This is also a sports bar so I should know better than to expect more from their brussels. My husband ordered the hot honey pizza and he loved it. I had a few slices and agree, even the crust was good! We live in Richardson and frequent cityline for Tricky fish, happy we can add this to our rotation. Music can be better but it is what it is. We'll still be back!

Lots of beers, some even acceptable for a guy that usually drinks double bocks. Food is eatable and staff is friendly enough.

Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting this local GEM that truly exceeded all expectations. The draft beer selection was unparalleled, offering a diverse array of brews (lots of local stuff too) to satisfy every palate. But what truly stole the show were the unexpected delights like mimosa and other flights, adding a unique twist to the experience. The full bar with outstanding specials only added to the excitement, providing endless options for libations. As for the food, it was nothing short of extraordinary, each dish bursting with flavor and creativity. And let's not forget the service, which was impeccable from start to finish, making every visit feel like a special occasion. Needless to say, I can't wait to return to this establishment for another round of great drinks, delicious food, and unbeatable service. You have to try the oak cliff Hefeweizen with the new spicy Asian crispy chicken sandwich... AMAZING! Had several people stop to check on me and was very happy with knowledge and attention... will be back again. Wine selection was good! And wine glasses too!

Taylor Gang. Come see T$$$ and tell her Brian sent you, she will take care of you. If you give her a hard time I didn't send you. Don't be weird.

Nice space that is open on multiple sides to the street to let air through. Sat at the bar and the blonde bartender did a great job on checking on me with beers and food. Not the fanciest food but they had some beers I'd not seen elsewhere in the area. Parking is free and right around the corner in the big private shared lot. Would come back when in the area again.

Good place to catch a game. Clean, open, with a lot of flat screens. Tap salad was much bigger than I expected and tasted good. Service was friendly and quick.

OK bar food. They do have different themes during the week for the night. Spacious good place to hang out after work.

Went in for lunch with coworkers. We were a group of 6 and found a suitable table. The restaurant is spacious and modern with a great selection of beers and a decent food menu. Our server was pleasant and efficient. Got our drinks (mostly water) fast and took our order. The food came fast, especially considering two people ordered pizzas. I ordered for Fish and Chips which was good portion and cooked well. I must say that the level of seasoning was higher than I am used to and the fish was a bit oily. But not a dealbreaker. The food overall looked fresh and portion size was reasonable. A good addition to the neighborhood.

Very good service!! Very crowded but that shows how good this place is!! TVs everywhere and great place to bring a small group!

Was really looking forward to this place when it finally opened. Was very disappointed when we finally went. Food is sub par. The burger was not a $15 burger, more like a step above Whataburger, if that. Thin patty, poor quality ingredients, bland taste. They also didn't have Topo Chico in stock to make a ranch water. You can tell the owners are trying to cut cost. Maybe they opened too many Brass Tap locations up at once. Atmosphere is fine. I'd come back for a beer but definitely not to eat.

Matt S.

Yelp
Y'all, my wife and I went there last night. The place is INCREDIBLE. The food was absolutely delicious. I got the burger, and she got the brisket grilled cheese. Both were so flavorful. Fries were tasty. The beers were amazing! And the folks there are so dang friendly and kind. This is gonna be a regular for us. Highly recommend it!

I had the worst experience at this location. I went here on my lunch break before but go to busy. I waited 40 + minutes on Buffalo cauliflower bites and cheese fries. I asked twice if they could just cancel the order because I didn't want to be late back I work and the bartender said she had to ask her manager that she walked by twice and kept stalling until the food was finally done. When I seen the food it had one squirt of Buffalo sauce and the cheese was in the middle of the fries undercooked . She refused to let me cancel the order to still give me nasty undercooked food.

Love this place . We had the best flights of beers and they were short staffed, but your server did a great job and was helpful in what beers to get .

Hope it was just an off day. Saturday @ 2:30 only 2 tables at that point and maybe a few people at the bar. Server seemed very unsure . I joined a table of friends and asked for Chicken Tender basket and a coke. I asked to leave off slaw. Food came out pretty quick with slaw. Asked for coke again he said he'd be right back with it. Coke never came and server charged 2 times for it. When paying i question him and he apologized and said oh I'll take a coke off since you only had 1. No I never got 1. Server said 2 were ordered. No I ordered 1 but never got it and asked again. He was confused. Some other things for the table were off as well. Server was a nice kid but absolutely not ready for serving. Just an opinion.

Ali R.

Yelp
Food and drinks were good! I was just really disappointed to see the staff passing 2 vapes back and forth between each other at the table adjacent to ours. When I approached the manager (literally the only one that I hadn't seen take a hit) she was very gracious, but I'm not sure how you miss your staff passing two vapes that were seated openly on their open table.

First stop in since it opened last week. Friendly service and solid bar food. It's a little loud in there but still a nice ambiance. It's a great addition to our community. Lots of screens for games. I plan on coming here versus Aces hanger.

Dylan S.

Yelp
This place is fantastic!! So many selections of beers and craft cocktails that it would take you 20 min just to look at the menu. And the service??! Just ask for Kaeli and all your needs will be filled to excellence. Definitely recommend coming here for a great brunch or a night out with the guys.

Customer service is amazing! The bartenders are welcoming and attentive. The food is awesome! The beer and lemon drops top notch!

Beer is not cold enough the pizza sucks ! The one on Sachse is ten times better ! Also it's a little cheaper in sacshe.

Yelp
The servers are friendly and nice. BUT the rest of everything else could be improved. They have items on the menu that they come back later to tell you isn't available after you order. This happened twice on separate visits. The cocktails are on the weak side. Food is limited and just okay. And the lighting is bright and a bit harsh with all the exposed Edison-style bulbs. After 3 visits I don't think I'll be back.

Alan T.

Yelp
This brewpub has plenty of room for improvement ... in service and food. We arrived on a Friday night and found it not to be very busy. Had to ask where to sit, and waited an inordinate amount of time to locate a server. We had to ask two other servers who our server was. Still waiting, our server finally came over. After ordering our drinks and an appetizer, a management-type came over and explained the servers were still undergoing training. Also, they forgot to make our drinks. Newsflash: You train your staff before opening not after. Will never return because there are too many dining choices in the region.

This place was a great surprise! Service was great, Good selection of beer, everything we ate was delicious as well. No doubt we will be returning.

I have been here approximately 20 times and have every intention to keep coming back. The beer selection is fantastic and the service is excellent. Taylor specifically has been fantastic every time I have been here as she has been very professional and prompt to take great care of me. The food and atmosphere is also top notch. Highly recommend if you swing by the City Line area. 5 Stars!

Yelp
Meh.... I had higher hopes for this new gastropub. It's in business center on the lower level where several eateries and retail stores are located. The interior is very much like a sports bar and the food quality matched. The wait staff was not overly friendly. I ordered a crispy chicken wrap... also meh. No bad but not overly flavorful. Probably my last visit there.

Taylor P.

Great beer selection, trivia or karaoke most nights of the week! Highly recommend to anyone in the area

Come see the bartender Taylor!!! She has amazing drink recommendations and consistently makes fantastic cocktails! I intentionally go in when I know she's there because I know the service and attention to detail will be on point! Thank you for taking care of me and my friendsI! Your incredible service has not gone unnoticed!

Well, if you're looking for fresh food, you came to the wrong place. Order the $11 happy hour burger. Yes, $11 for gray thin ass burger for $11 wasn't even a quarter pound. It was so thin they couldn't even cook it medium. If I can say a positive thing, it reminds me of middle school.Yeah, their gray thin burgers are slightly better than the school lunch burgers. One more tip, don't ask for the undercooked crinkle fries.

Nicole G.

Came here for lunch today, only a month after opening. Staff is so friendly, very attentive and my daughter says the pancakes in the All American breakfast from the brunch menu was the best. Wings and pizza got our family's approval too!

The worst run bar in the area. Service is terrible. They will up charge you for drinks, management is clue less. If you want a real bar go to Ace Hanger across the street.
