Bartender was horrible. Food was cold. Beer was good

Curtis Craffey

Mezze plate was delicious. Tasted like fresh cut fries too

Many IPAs if that’s your thing. Servers were very helpful. Be aware that only paid parking spots in the Thompson’s Point complex — not the brewery’s fault but odd to have to pay in the middle of a pretty empty area.

Service was good until our group of 4 couples tried splitting the bill. Was told they can’t split a bill.. turns out they can split a bill you just have to argue enough apparently, which a customer shouldn’t have to do. We’ll just go to a different restaurant where you don’t have to do that??‍♂️.. I also called the restaurant because my bank statement shows a charge for $10 more than what my bill says. The gentleman on the phone was very helpful and professional. He asked me if I would like to take my tip back, which is funny because I didn’t leave a tip due to how ridiculous it was to try and split a bill. These weasels tried to tack on $10 of a tip that was not given or earned. You earn a tip by providing good service the entire time, not by stealing. Won’t be back.

Great beer, very good food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Ditch the new table service, and this would be a 5 star review. It was much more enjoyable when you could seat yourself and order at the counter. And no, the limited self service seating or ordering and drinking by the counter mentioned in other replies don't make this any better.

Amazing! All around perfection! We usually go to bissell & the food is always above par. However tonight we tried the Italian night in the 21+ section & it was utterly amazing! We can not rave about it more. The steak was melt in your mouth with seasoning & accompaniments that made it a 5 star plus! The gnocchi was tender & the cheese perfection. We ordered the beef tartare twice because it was so amazing I had to have it for dessert too. My husband got the zeppole & it was to die for. Ross was the most amazing bartender & server, this was the best night for parents night away/date night ❤️

This brewery used to be a solid 5 stars for me.The beer is great, the employees are friendly and knowledgeable. The downgrade is entirely due to the new seating policy. I come here to drink a couple of beers and leave with bottles and cans to go. I enjoyed seating myself and getting my own beer, at my own convenience. Bissell Brothers of course has every right to have a proper restaurant, and I wish them well, but making guests wait to be seated and served in an area that has always been self serve frankly sucks. It’s inefficient and time consuming. I’m with the others who implore you to put back the way it was. If it stays like this, I’ll simply grab some cans and leave. This new arrangement no longer makes me want to hang out here. Keep the restaurant in the new space and leave the old space as it was.

Food was ok as portion sizes are quite small for the high prices of meals and no sides included. Service was good and beer selection was normal. Would be nice if flights on tap were offered. Would visit again but only for drinks.

To my standards, Bissel Brothers Brewery stands as an unparalleled gem of a brewery on the East Coast. Their meticulously crafted beers are brewed to perfection. Beyond the brews, the ambiance of the establishment is captivating, exuding both elegance and comfort.The aromatic atmosphere further enhances the overall sensory delight. Moreover, the exemplary service provided by the staff adds an extra layer of satisfaction to the visitThanks for the awesome time, can't wait to swing by next time I'm in Portland!

Staff here is great and very knowledge about beer. There's a large selection of brews and the samples I tried were all really good.

David Murphy

The bar tender was really knowledgeable and happy to talk about the beer. It turned buying a drink into a really insightful experience. Thank you

Specifically calling out Stephen. A server I’ve had twice and have been treated with so little respect both times. It leads me to believe this person doesn’t respect women or children in this environment and I can’t in good conscience return to this location. (Mind you, located across from the Children’s Museum).Edit to add : I guess the server name on the check was fake/incorrect. This is the experience I’ve had at this location with the same server.Also edit: There was a 0 productive response or resolution to my experience (x2)

Beer is great, the venue is great, lots of room and parking. Service is spot on.

Beers were not great and they do not offer flights. The menu had nothing that did not contain dairy. The male waiter was irritated that I asked for no cheese on a salad. I'm not asking for special treatment, just leaving the cheese off so that I don't end up with rashes among other long lasting issues that I'm sure he has the luxury of not experiencing. I was surprised at the attitude since this place tries hard to convey an "everyone is welcome" vibe lol
