Great place for kids!!This place was recommended to us by a friend and we decided to stop in on a random Wednesday to check it out. The property is a bit far (we are based in NW Austin), but it is beautiful. It has ample outdoor seating - I would keep this in mind if the weather isn't awesome... not as much indoor. However, if the weather is beautiful, outdoor is the way to go.We are always looking for places to go to entertain our toddler and this fits the bill. Playscape for him, food for everyone, and drinks for mom and dad. Keep in mind the play scape isn't closed in, so keep an eye on the littles, they could run out. I only mention this because knowing this fact is important to me, but definitely not a ding on this place.

MeanwhileBrewery in Austin, Texas, is an absolute gem! Kirby, the mastermind behind the bar, impressed us with his impeccable knowledge and passion for craft beer. The spacious ambiance provided the perfect backdrop for enjoying our brews, while the curated music selection added an extra layer of enjoyment to our experience. Whether you're a beer connoisseur or just looking for a great time, Meanwhile Brewery is the place to be in Austin!

Great beer- although lots more IPAs, which aren't our thing. But we still always find a great beer to drink! And love all the food trucks variety!

Beer is good, staff is friendly, and the space is beautiful. But holy moly, there are so many kids running around it feels like you're drinking at a daycare. Also, for a venue this size, there aren't enough restrooms.

Went for Easter egg hunt. They were not prepared for that. A staff member was impatient with my son who was looking for eggs. We ended up leaving before the thinkery events due to the bad vibes we were getting.Overall looks like a cool place but maybe be a little more prepared and chill next time.

Nice family-oriented location with great selection of beers, a small soccer field for the kids, many outdoor picnic tables, an outdoor big-screen TV for sporting events, and nice selection of food from 5 food trucks.

great place but kids outnumber adults by a significant ratio. when did breweries become a second daycare? who decided it was ok to take your kids drinking then drive them home with a BAC....

Very good place, good beers and food, family atmosphere
This isn't just a brewery; it's an experience. From the moment you step onto the sprawling property, you're greeted by a friendly atmosphere cultivated by the tremendous team (Mia was so awesome). Whether it's the knowledgeable bartenders offering recommendations or the frozen drinks - I firmly believe this place is the best brewery in the country.

Really good beer! Cool location with lots to offer everyone. Food comes from food trucks so can't judge on food, but there were lots of good choices! It's all counter service.

Okay, this place rocks! Has a bit of everything for everyone without straying away from that awesome brewery feel. I came wanting a beer and ended up being super intrigued by their frozen cocktails and coffee options as well. What an awesome place to bring a group and know everyone can find something they like. It was a huge establishment. Driving up we saw lines of cars parking along the sides of the street (we did come on a Sunday afternoon), but were able to find parking easily in the parking lot. The place gives 'classy' vibes and feels like an upscale coffee shop with an emphasis on the industrial brewery feel. Such a great job on the interior!! Plenty of seating options, then a huge outdoor space with options on the covered patio or amongst the trees. They had a cute flee market going on while we were there as well, and was so fun to walk around a shop with a beer! Can't wait to come back here!!

Such a cool place!! Tons of open area, beautifully done. We came in the day time and it just felt refreshing.Tons of great own-brewed beer and plenty of food trucks to choose from.Recommend Helles Lager for beer and distant relatives for food
Great atmosphere!
