The beer here is fantastic every single time I visit the city. The pizza was fantastic as well.

Great pizza, warm and friendly atmosphere.

The beers are top notch, great selection. The pizza was amazing. If you haven't been to Handmap Brewing you are missing out!

Great spot to hang out with some friends. Not the easiest to have a conversation when they have a band on stage. To be clear, I say that as more of a heads up for everyone that see's this review rather than me complaining about how loud live music is.

Shout out to Handmap Brewing from Oklahoma!

Everything you except in a quality brewery. This place never disappoints. Jen is the best!

Great ambiance, good pizza, and even better beer! There were some sweet rock bands playing heavy music, hoping they continue that.

Once in a while, you run into a brewery that is knocking it out of the park. Handmap fits that description to a "T". The Otis BA Saison blew me away. But the star of the show was the BA Battle Creek Russian Imperial Stout. I was flawless. One of the best I've had in 35+ years. And the pickle pizza? Wow! Thanks Chris and Jennifer. Walking into this place felt like home.

Nice relaxed atmosphere. Had a band the night we were there. Beer, service, food and entertainment were all great! I'll be back.

Here is one of the hidden gems in Battle Creek. If you are looking for a drinkable brew, this is your place. The inside of the brewery is awesome. It is in a lower level of the building so it has stone walls and a bar fit the theme. The brewery does have live music that they post in their Facebook page. The service has that home town feel that you are welcome there. The pizza. What I can say about the pizza is spectacular!! I highly recommend you try Handmap Brewery.
Super-friendly staff. Had a chance to talk with the owner. Very welcoming. Pizza was great!

So we wanted to try the breweries in battle creek cause we heard great things. We stop at this place called the handmap, and I’m not kidding, never again!!!! We drove 3 hours to check this place out and the girls behind the bar were so rude. We asked for samples to try their beers and the girls were getting annoyed, mind you there are four of us who never been here, the the one waitress pawns us to another because we were asking questions about the beers? Like you work at a brewery if you can’t answer questions for your customers you should not work at one!!!!!! Horrible experience and NEVER AGAIN!!!!! New holland brewery by far was the best!!!!! At least they were happy to answer our questions that we bought beers and bourbons to take back to chicago!!!!!

I really loved this place! The bartenders were so friendly and welcoming. All the locals were kind and helpful. The area itself is spectacular. The outside patio is huge and shaded. The view is great. Everything in this area is walking distance and parking was free!! The inside of the bar is quite large and they have a great variety of beers to choose from. I loved everything about it!!

Hand Map location makes for a very nice setting to enjoy cold beer and great pizza outside. However; as nice as the outdoor seating area is, do not underestimate the “real pub”feel of sitting inside. From the mugs hanging from the ceiling to the beer menu on the chalk board, the atmosphere starts maki g you get in the mood for cold craft beer!When it comes to craft beers, I’m generally not a fan of the fruity stuff and that’s true with Hand Map as well This isn’t a commentary on the quality of the different beers (and there are a lot of choices) it’s really more about my beer preferences.Ok, we went to Hand Map on a recommendation because of their pizza. We had been here many times before but before they started the pizza offeringWe got there, took our place at a four top high table right next to a window. This made for a great setting to be with friends.Service was immediate and pleasant. After looking at the menu, I chose a Mexican Lager and I was not disappointed! My wife had the stout, because she ordered a second, guessing she enjoyed her selection as well.We then looked at the pizza menu and decided on the Hawaiian. Not everyone’s choice for pizza but it brought back memories from long ago when we would order a Hawaiian from Jackie’s!This pizza is the real deal. Crust was fantastic as was the sauce. The balance of sauce to topping was right on so you were able to enjoy the crunchy tasty crust, the very fresh tasting sauce and of course the cheese, pineapple and ham toppings. Our friends got the meat lovers minus bacon (who takes off the bacon? ) and they thought it was fantastic. We got out of there for underfifty bucks that included fairly generous tip.Four beers, pizza, great place and enjoyable night with friends and for under 50.00. You gotta go!
