So glad this place opened up over a year ago now. It’s a nice neighborhood spot with plentiful outdoor seating during the warmer months. I appreciate the casual vibe and the service has always been good. Sometimes it can get busy and the quickest way to get service is by going up to the bar instead of waiting for someone to come by your high top. The quality of their drinks has always been great and I typically get the truffle fries which never disappoint.

While on vacation, we visited for a few rounds.The staff are perfect, their recommendations were on point. They definitely understood the assignment. The beer selection on tap is not vast but covers all categories with great selections. Look forward to returning.

The staff are amazing and the drinks are great. Big fan of their chicken quesadilla. Only thing is I wish they didn't play sports on the TV all the time. There's other sports bars in the neighborhood for that. I enjoy the neighborhood vibe here and would rather it not turn into another sports bar. Keep it up, great spot.

Be careful here.Just found out that my girlfriend had something slipped into her drink last time we dined there.I went out to move my car, and left her alone. When I came back, we shared her drink together.Had a medical examination the next morning and the following results showed I had been slipped a benzo the previous night at Uptown Taproom.Be careful there.

Really frustrated that they are often out of stock of their gluten free substitute items and their phone number doesn’t work so I can’t call in advance to check.

Stopped by after a long bike ride. Nice spot with ample outdoor seating. Plenty of beer/drink options. I didn't have much food so I can't say too much about it. Definitely stopping by again.

The place is great, the food is ok. I love the outdoor space but the service is awful. Not everyone, but some of the staff just don’t care to help us. My 67 year old mom had to walk up to the bar to get a drink since we couldn’t get the servers attention. and she still took 5 minutes to flag down someone to help her.

What a great neighborhood gem! Amazing addition to Wilson here in Uptown. Food is excellent, beer selection is awesome, and they habe a good variety of liquor for mixed drinks too if beer isn't your thing. Couple all that with an amazing owner and staff that truly enjoys their jobs - what a combo! Highly recommended!Parking: Paid AND free parking options all around!

There isn't a lot of synergy here. Burger is overpriced and has a school cafeteria feel and taste to it. Salad didn't have dressing options and the croutons were just pieces of hamburger bread ran through an oven toaster. It makes an earnest attempt but it falls short of the price you pay for it and better food options in the area. If you want to try the beer, then give it a go but do some research ahead of time.Pros: a good place to people watch and meet up with a group of friends for beers. Don't over complicate it and get food!Service depends on the day and time you go in.
