A word from BRC Gastropub

BRC opened its doors in April of 2010. Quickly, BRC became a neighborhood favorite for satisfying American comfort food. With a philosophy that accounts for a New American sensibility regarding using the best ingredients available at a value driven price, BRC Gastropub has become a place known for… its accessibility to every type of dinner. An award winning burger (Btw...Burger and fry night every Monday $7.00) BRC has garnered the attention of craft beer drinkers with 28 taps that rotate America’s best craft beers just about every week.

If you want variation, choice, chef driven food and value...choose BRC tonight!

Please be aware that incomplete parties will not be seated. Also, parties will be marked as "no show" if arrival time is more than 10 minutes past the reservation time.Continued

"The food was delicious! I love my grandma's macaroni and cheese but BRC outdoes hers and mine. I ordered the Fried Chicken Cobb and I had my bacon fix for the month. My husband had the sliders of the day and never offered anyone at the table a taste. My younger brothers enjoyed the Pub Burger and my parents couldn't stop talking about the place. Due to the great food and service, we will be back again. They never fail to satisfy!"

"BRC Gastropub is a true gem in an area with many small niche restaurants. The interesting twists on classics, such as the "chicken fried" bacon BLT, where the bacon is battered and fried, to innovative combinations like their brisket chili con quest make this an interesting experience for your palate. Must "try's" are the cheese biscuits with bacon jam, yes you read that bacon jam; also the mac and cheese is divine.

Along with the food is an interestingly diverse selection of craft and micro brew beers."

"Michael was our server for brunch on Sunday, and he did a great job with answering our questions and making recommendations. I enjoyed the chicken and biscuits, which came with two huge cheddar biscuits, with (from what I could tell) two decent sized chicken fried chicken breasts on top, all topped with cheddar cheese and eggs to order. I balanced it with a fruit cup instead of the customary fries, which are delicious, but would have been too much with the large entree. They were delicious, although in the future I'd plan to either split the meal or take half home! Had to skip dessert because I was so full, but in the past I've had the bread pudding, which is really good."

"I was a bit dismayed by my experience here. The food and service were outstanding, but the parking was limited in front of the restaurant and it was completely full during my visit. They have an adjacent parking lot but DO NOT PARK there. My car was burglarized and items stolen. Its a poorly lit lot, no cameras, nothing. I was very dissapointed by the lack of care that they take for their patrons concerning the parking. I'm leery to go back now, unfortunaltey."

"This place is loud. I've eaten here many times. Most recently it was around 9:30, there weren't a lot of people but it was still really loud. The burger used to be great, now it's just kind of average. The prices are high except for the burger on Mondays. That has become the only reason I would go. I've had issues with how lousy and sometimes rude the service was in the past but during our most recent visit, the waiter was very nice and made no indication that they were approaching closing time. We stayed well past 10 and they were still serving people, so I would say there has been an effort to respond to feedback about service."
