Fast service! I came by for the flight and the pretzel! They had an extensive drinks list and I enjoyed all of them! As for the pretzel, it was hot and fresh, the cheese dip was so delicious! The place was huge and it felt very homey! We even received free stickers for liking them on fb and ig! Highly recommend this place.

My husband and I went there for brunch for the first time today. Absolutely amazing. The $5 bloody Marys are to die for. So delicious! I got the yard bird and my husband got the eggs Benedict. Both were extremely good. Also try the cheesy grits. The best I've ever had!

Four star kinda place. A few very good beers and food is decent. Usually busy and relatively loud. I'm always cold there. Overall, fine place to go

Ordered the southwest salad to go. It was full of water at the bottom of the salad. It didn't have tortilla strips as it states on the menu and there was minimal avacodo and chicken. Also no utensils or napkins, all for 16 bucks.

It's been years since I came (poor service) but today took the cake. I walked in and was greeted by...silence. Nobody. Finally I saw staff by the kitchen door but was totally ignored. Even the bartender with her 4 customers was too busy to notice me. Is it because I'm so short?Or is it they have grown accustomed to people seating themselves, pulling up a QR Code and ordering. And perhaps they know the only thing they must do is deliver plates to the table. Mind you I had to get my own silverware and water. No one even offered salt, pepper or other basics.Ummm. Not what I want in a restaurant.

We ordered the 1/2 lb cheeseburger with cheddar cheese and jalapenos. Added tater tots. Very good and really like the taste of the burger and the tater tots did not have that greasy taste of them like some do. Very much recommend this place the bartenders were very nice and attentive.

Cool vibes. $2.50 draft on Wednesday is a great deal. A variety of food. Everything we tasted was good. Definitely recommend and will return.

Great place to watch the games and have a drink! They even have vegan options! Adrian and crew hosted our Celebrate Cville Bar Crawl and they were SO great to work with! I will be going back there more often for

The spot feels like an upscale sports bar. I guess that's kind of what it is? The bartender was generous with the beer tastes, but I didn't find one that I wanted more of until the third one I tried. Oh well. It had a cozy vibe on this particular fall evening, and one TV was playing an 00's movie, which made for lots of reminiscing.

Great place to grab a local cville brew. We only had the pretzel to eat but it was delicious. The beer cheese was mild and had a great taste. The beer mustard was also good. Allison was a great bartender and full of energy! Will be back! The El JEFE was a solid weizen.

I attended a private wedding party here and to my surprise, this was a Buffalo Bills bar. While that sold me instantly, the beer & staff was the cherry on top. Every staff member I interacted with was super nice and friendly. My favorite beer was the Blues Buster. I came back on Sunday to grab a 4-pack to go. The Bills game on and the place was rocking!

Great food and atmosphere. Plenty of TVs and comfortable seating. Wait staff is really kind. Have to order food at the bar, though.

Stopped in to South Street Brewery for a late lunch and came away with a mixed review. Nice, clean layout with spacious, unique seating. Staff were friendly and hard working. Food was generous portions and quite delicious. Feedback- bar prices are crazy - a well double rum and coke was $14 and a basic mango margarita was $12 - way more that I would expect for a walk up, counter service restaurant. Food was delivered without utensils (hello - Cole Slaw and burger without bun without a fork!), condiments (catsup for fries is a standard), or any napkins so hubby had to be our waiter. Just my personal opinion and did not impact rating but why is it now a trend to put corn in Cole Slaw? Second time I have seen this recently and I don't understand -Cole Slaw is cabbage and carrots in dressing. I have seen some fun things done with it like walnuts, pineapple chunks and/or craisons but I don't get the corn. I picked the corn out and there was 1/4 cup of corn piled up on my plate - almost 40% corn. If I wanted corn, I would have ordered corn. Otherwise the Cole Slaw had a nice heat to it - I like the spiciness. Burger was generously sized and tasty and hubby loved the chicken parm sandwich on a huge hogie! Another thing the brewery can't control was the poorly behaved children. Three pre-adolescents left unsupervised in the sofa area were very rowdy, hitting, crying, and basically tormenting each other and everyone around us. I am talking rolling on the floor hitting each other with removed shoes while their parents were up at the counter either ordering or drinking (they were gone more than a few minutes). Breweries, wineries, and bars used to be a place adults could go to get away from bratty kids but no more... Would I come back? Yes but for food and maybe one cocktail but the drink prices are just too high for what we got...

$17 beef on weck... the beer is decent but for a buffalo bar the amount of beef on this sandwich is laughable.

European style concept where you seat yourself, then order food and drinks at the bar, and a server brings it to your table. Was a bit loud when it filled up after we came in. Great beer, decent pretzel (might be frozen and not fresh), great tots, and solid southwest salad and burgers. Would definitely eat here again if in town.
