    The beer selection is good. They stop taking food orders at 9pm so order ahead or get there sooner. I tried the firehouse burger. I really enjoyed it with the belching beaver stout.

    Came by on a Saturday afternoon (2pm). Greeted by an attendant who check for our temperature. Arrived by Uber and I consider that to be the best choice. Parking abit difficult, all street parking full. Not a busy street, but difficult to find parking. Was seated very quickly for a party of 4. Outdoor dining, with very well built wooden structure. Ordered the Tuna melt with blond craft beer (honey). Tuna melt was well seasoned and the fries were tasty. The server were very friendly as well! The other meal was a fried chicken sandwich, which was huge! (6 inches in diameter). Over all, A+.

    Really laid back place with a small menu -- great when you are trying to keep it simple! Love the outdoor seating set up. Good selection of beer, wine, and soju cocktails. If you want to watch the game they have a couple of screens outside as well! This was my second visit and I did the Truffle Mushroom Grilled Cheese with a Mango Cocktail and my bf opted for the chicken tenders and Cigar City Jai Alai. I highly recommend the grilled cheese and mango cocktail! He loved the Jai Alai! I also recommend the wings. They have them under appetizers and they are decent sized, but not whole wings if that is what you are looking for! Definitely adding this place as my go to!

    A fun little restaurant with a very easy going vibe! The food and soju cocktails are delicious and really express the creativity of the restaurant. The truffle mushroom grilled cheese was a great combination of flavors and the breading on the fish and chips and shrimp from the po boy sandwiches was light and crispy! The service was also great everyone was welcoming and quick to make suggestions!

    First time here and they made us feel just at home. James was a great host and his recommendations were Amazing. We started off with a Societe the Pupil Beer and a Refreshing Watermelon Sangria. Followed by a Half Acre Slow Wink Beer and anexperimental cantaloupe sangria which did not disappoint. We shared a Chimichurri Steak Sandwich and fries which lived up to its name. Everything was Absolutely Amazingly and Delicious.. We will definitely be back.

    I’ve been loyal customer so a while now, this place is amazing!!!! but lately in the colder temperatures when I show up they don’t seem to cater to my comfort needs as far as the heaters.Yes, I come here by myself. Anyway I’ve noticed on my last 3 visits that the heater is not set up for me unless I ask for it and even when I ask for it they tell me to move tables even though I’m the only customer in the establishment. However, When two or more (large groups) show up they totally treat them like VIP’s. Anyway my money is as good as anyone else’s I’m just looking for the same level of attention to detail as the larger groups. In closing Brew Kitchen is amazing, but like any business there’s always room for improvement.

    The service was great. I recommend sticking to the burgers, the spicy chicken was salty, over battered, and a weird texture (my wife said the chicken was rubbery). The fries and onion rings were worth it. And the beer hit the spot. Over all, I would go back for the beer, burger, onion rings, and fries.

    Wonderful atmosphere excellent service and good food!!

  • 5/5 Angel I. 7 months ago on Google
    The food is high quality. Took it back to the hotel and even at room temperature the fries were still edible. The first burger on the menu has millionaires bacon and I see why. Also the steak sandwich is fenomenal. Meals are perfectly staged making it even more appetizing. Keep up the good work James keep bringing that Blood Orange Cali squeeze and to Collette, more water please!

    Very hipster. Cons: No indoor seating, no bar. No WiFi. Limited menu. Beers $10. Limited hours. Loud music. Pros: Parking lot in the back. Friendly. Quick service. Good food. Saw a dog. But hey, support a small business.

  • 5/5 Phyllis R. 9 months ago on Google
    Highly recommend this place. The service is GREAT! Very friendly and courteous. The food and cocktails are even better. Must try the Elote Egg Rolls! The Fish & Chips is really really good. The BKB Burger and the Grilled Cheese was delicious also. The Apple Pie drink holds up to its name. Same with the Mango tango drink (which also comes blended)

    I wish they had bar seating options because being sat and having to wait for a server just to get a beer makes no sense. I wouldn't come here to grab a quick drink. The outdoor seating is nice and the lighting gave it a great vibe. They don't have many light and crisp options for beers but what they have was really good.

    What's invited here by friends and I absolutely fell for this place. I love the atmosphere and how they turned their parking lot into an open-air dining area. The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was excellent. I will be coming back.

    Allan is the guy. Me and my wife have been going since they been open and we never, I repeat we have never had a bad experience food may take some time but I would wait hours for their wings, brews, and honestly the whole menu. Everything is great. I look ve this place so much I’d be willing to have vows redone at this venue. Great spot never change and hope you are appreciated in the community.

    The elotw egg rolls are a must try!! They are so delicious and crunchy. The hot chicken sandwich was very tasty, although it wasn't very spicy. Great service and atmosphere!

    Our dining experience at Brew Kitchen Bar was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the warm and inviting atmosphere, and our friendly waiter, John, ensured we had everything we needed throughout the evening. Our appetizers, the Elote Egg Rolls and Tray of Fries, were the perfect way to kick off our meal. The egg rolls boasted a delightful combination of crunchy, sweet, cheesy corn and were perfectly complemented by the spicy mayo drizzle and cojita cheese. Meanwhile, the Tray of Fries offered a satisfying, savory start to our dining experience. For our main courses, we tried a variety of dishes, including the Chimichurri Steak Salad, Truffle Mushroom Grilled Cheese, Hot Chix Sando, Brew Wings, and the BKB Burger. Each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. The Chimichurri Steak Salad was a standout with its coffee-rubbed NY steak, fresh greens, and balsamic vinaigrette, while the Truffle Mushroom Grilled Cheese was pure indulgence with its toasted sourdough, mozzarella, sautéed mushrooms, house truffle paste, and arugula. To wash down our flavorful feast, we enjoyed the Sojurito, a refreshing twist on a classic mojito with fresh mint and lime, along with a variety of tasty brews from their extensive beer list. Overall, we had a fantastic time at Brew Kitchen Bar, and we can't wait to return for another round of mouth-watering dishes and exceptional service. If you're looking for a place with a fantastic atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly staff, Brew Kitchen Bar should be at the top of your list!

    Was looking for a spot to eat after a long day of walking and sightseeing. I found this place at random and was not disappointed. Staff was friendly and I even got to chat with one. Just wanted to note that this was during a lull in service so not many people were there. I ordered the lemond pepper wings and BKB burger. The burger was pretty big and I was almost full just off of it. The crunch on the wings is really good. Just wish they’d add a little extra flavor to them. Other than that I would say it was a good experience overall. A little pricey but sometimes to eat good you gotta pay a little more yk.

    Food here is really good. It's bar food, but done really well. The grilled cheese was really tasty. Good beer and wine selection. My only gripe and why I give 4 stars, not 5, is due to the excessive use of single-use plastic. Our drinks came in disposable plastic cups, the flatware was flimsy plastic and came in cellophane packets, etc. Not only does this bother me from an environmental POV, it cheapens the experience. Craft beer in a plastic cup tastes much worse than in the appropriate glass cup.

    Best fish and chips I've had in this area. The fish is not dry and melts in your mouth. I also love their buffalo ranch chicken sandwich. The chicken is pretty moist with lots of buffalo sauce flavor. It's pretty pricey for these dishes, but definitely worth it.

  • 5/5 Gaby L. 1 year ago on Google
    Our first time here. Our daughter turned 21 and we went for drinks and an appetizer. Drinks were great, atmosphere was relaxing, staff were sweet and very great vibe. I appreciate that it is kid friendly and we were able to take our 12 and 17 year old while we had drinks with our 2 older kids. Food looked amazing, next time we will have dinner and drinks. Thank you 🍹

    It was really nice. At first it's a bit confusing as to where you go, do you sit first, order, etc. This should be better communicated. The drink selection was better than expected. We had Sojuritos with strawberry, which was very refreshing. I had the firehouse burger. It was delicious but a bit messy and too tall to fit in a bite. The onion and salsa kept falling out. The fries were delicious and already seasoned. My friend had the strawberry salad, she said it was as yummy as is looked. To top it off we had the dessert trio, which they were very sweet and put a candle in for my birthday. My favorite was the passion fruit.

  • 5/5 mimi t. 2 years ago on Google
    Love how they had some innovative food especially the Elote Egg Rolls - cheesy mozzarella corn wrapped in a crispy egg roll shell. Spicy mayo drizzle. cilantro. cojita and tajin sprinkle. Black Sesame Panna Cotta - it was really pretty but the consistency was a little too soft/ liquid/runny instead of a firmness but had great flavor.

  • 5/5 Olivia R. 2 years ago on Google
    Food, beer & service was great! Our first time definitely not the last.

  • 5/5 Courtney H. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here for the first time this weekend and it was great! The outdoor space is perfect in that it's spacious, so if you're worried about being far from other people during COVID, it helps bring some peace of mind. The food was solid and the drink selection was good. If you're in the area, I would recommend a visit!

  • 5/5 Gary F. 1 year ago on Google
    Was looking for a casual place with outdoor seating, beer, and easy food. This place was perfect. Service was amazing - quick, attentive, and super friendly. Menu is simple but everything we had was solid. Decent craft beer selection. Overall great vibe!
