I really really wanted to love this place. So much that I booked my husband's birthday lunch here. Seriously I must have been a restaurant critic in another life because I literally get depressed when another place doesn't live up to the hype. Okay, the good: 1. Food came out fast and was hot. 2. Server was pleasant and efficient. 3. The price was fair for the area. The "bad": 1. I've had much better burgers 2. I've had much better fries. 3. The ranch looked house made and was too bitter. 4. We made the mistake of sitting next to a beer fridge which was opened and closed constantly in the few minutes we were there before we requested to be reseated. 5. No salt at the table, which the fries sorely needed. 6. Had to request a printed menu. If you're looking for a very casual quick lunch or dinner, with minimal expectations, this place is decent. If you are a hardcore burger enthusiast who orders ranch with her oreos, just stick with what you know. Final comment is we both enjoyed the pretzels with beer cheese, but felt they were a touch skimpy on the salt. Seriously, more salt across the board. As any chef will tell you, just when you think you're done, add more salt.

We had a very enjoyable experience here! My friend and I split a money burger and fried chicken sandwich so we could each try them both. They were both so tasty! We did order the burger medium and it came medium well, no biggie for us. It was still tasty, loaded with flavor. The fried chicken sandwich was also good, crispy and not dry, yummy sauce. Truffle fries were fire as well. Crispy edges, soft middle, great taste. Our waiter was super friendly and a joy to talk to. The ambiance inside is a little loud but lively, it's clean, and there are tv's with games showing. Outside looked nice too, there are heaters. Prices are fair, and great location. Would recommend!

This place is a bit noisy but the food was really good and service was great. If you need a quieter atmosphere, the patio looked nice. We got wings, tacos and pretzel bites. All were tasty and not your average brew food.

Danville Brewing is amazing!! It's one of me and my boyfriend's favorite places to dine and grab a good beer. This past weekend we went there with a group of friends and had the best experience. Our server was very attentive and kind, always making sure we were satisfied with our food and drinks. If you're looking for a place to eat good food or even just hang out, grab a beer, and watch some sports for a more casual experience, this is definitely the place!

we celebrated my friends birthday at Danville brewing recently and had the best time. we had salads, burgers and the staff allowed us to bring in cupcakes from a local bakery. our group also was able to get a quick look at the brewing equipment which was super cool! we will definitely be celebrating more birthdays here in the future. their patio is amazing!

This was our second time here and will not be our last! The setting is very relaxed, with indoor and outdoor seating, shelters, and heaters for chilly nights. We sat indoors, which was a bit noisier but warmer, and that was a fair trade-off. The food is very good here for a brewery, and the stainless fermentation tanks in the back of the dining areas remind you of their first purpose. But, as said, the food is very good in offerings and quality. We ordered some appetizers mainly to be shared as the main meal. These included the house made pretzel bites (DBC beer cheese, sea salt), crispy Brussels Sprouts (Garlic, chilis, parsley, grilled lemon), Shishito Peppers (Fried shishito peppers tossed in garlic and pretzel salt served with a cherry pepper aioli), and a Fig Flatbread (figs, blue cheese, mozzarella, garlic, kale, balsamic reduction). Someone also ordered a Pesto Chicken Sando (blackened chicken, pesto aioli, bell peppers, habanero jack, little gems, tomato, and ciabatta), but not for sharing! We also ordered a couple of drinks: a real cocktail and a mocktail, "Whiskey Sour." The Whiskey Sour was sour, but that was it. Not a redo. The food arrived quickly and well-paced. Our server, Joseph, did a great job coordinating everything and ensuring we had everything we needed. The food was very good - as has been mentioned! - and all items would be redos. My favorites were the Shishito peppers, some quite large, and I didn't even try the aioli; just the peppers with salt and lemon were fine. The Brussels sprouts were tasty and well-seasoned, and the fig pizza was different, and I approve. Overall, it was a great time, and I can't wait for another excuse to visit Danville at dinner time.

I had the chance to check out Danville Brewing on a busy weekend night. The lakers and warriors were playing, so the room was packed. There is a bar area which makes watching the game much more enjoyable. If you take a peak in the back, the industrial part of the brewery is fun to look at. The staff was quick to take our order. There is seating both inside and outside as well. More importantly, their beer menu is abundant, along with other cocktails. The restroom was clean and the staff were very nice! I would come again. Parking is challenging, with the adjacent parking lot being the main area.

We were seated for 25 minutes and not one person came to help us. We got up, wiped our mouths on the cloth napkins and left. We ate elsewhere and will not be going back.
Loco Moco! Used the wrong knife to cut but delicious either way?? wifey always orders the salmon salad. Chux ipa’s ? another must downtown!

I went to this place a while ago, but I had an awesome dinner. Waiter was great, burgers were delicious, and atmosphere was super relaxing. Will be back one day eventually.

We've been there twice in the last month ... first time we were there .. we sat there at the bar for 10min .. never got acknowledged .. so we left and went to another place called The peasant and the pear "... great service there!... then we tried DBC again to see if it is better now ... and same thing , service was very slow ... and not very friendly... kegs were empty as well...

Ok. Honest review now from someone who has been there since the first day they opened. Pros: - One of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. - When in Danville, we go there probably 2 times a month. - Menu continues to get better with more options (wish they still had the railroad fries) - there is always great service Cons: - I feel each time I go prices raise ever so slightly. - The beer sizes. They are the only bar I've ever been to where they give you a small glass for whatever IPA you get. Even if you get a 7% ipa they will still give you the same small glass they would give for a 11% ipa. I've never been to a place that does this and I feel they are ripping off customers by doing this. - none of the salads on the menu are vegetarian besides a roast beet summer salad (which i assume very few people eat). If you get a salad with no meat, the price stays the same at $16. There should be some vegetarian salad options. All around we do love this place but we have found ourself going there less due to these changes.
