Expect an elevated gastropub dining experience with an array of craft beers, house-made cocktails, and small to large plates in an intimate setting. Menu curated by renowned Cincinnati chef, Jackson Rouse.

Very happy the brew pub is open again! Definitely suggest making reservations, at least until the welcome back interest has died down. A part of 5 was disappointed they could not walk in at 6 on a Saturday night. That said, the service is still amazing, the beers are innovative and delicious. This place is super cozy and on the quieter side - great for a catch up or a date. However, you won't be out of place if you're having such a good time the volume goes up. Looking forward to see if / how the menu changes and if there will be special occasion (new years, tasting, etc) menu's

Over all the experience was good. Our server was wonderful and very attentive. The beer was amazing but the food was ok. We got the hot chicken sandwich and the lamb meatballs. The flavor of both dishes were pretty good but the hot chicken sandwich had so much bread on it that it was hard to taste everything else.

Glad that the brewpub opened back up. I had the egg white omelette and shared beignets. Think the food is even better than before and will definitely be returning.

Food was average, Not as good as before it closed during Covid. Bread/ bun chicken sandwich was served on was dry, and way too thick to actually try and pick up and eat.

Made a reservation for 11am Saturday brunch, though there wasn’t much of a crowd yet. Server was attentive and helpful. Hot chicken sandwich was delicious; I got it without pimento cheese and didn’t miss it at all. Breakfast burrito also got rave reviews.

Went for brunch on Sunday with 2 friends and my 2 year old and it was great! I got the daily frittata and it was amazing. I got my 2 year old some eggs and fruit, they don’t have a specific kids menu but do have food that they can eat! Will be back, excited to come back for dinner! And so glad they reopened!!
Fifty West BrewpubResponded on January 19, 2023Great to hear! We have added a kids menu to dinner but not brunch yet. Hope to see you back soon!

Service was poor. Food was cold. Space was cold. Didn’t expect a frozen hash brown patty with my breakfast. Not at the prices they are charging.
Fifty West BrewpubResponded on January 19, 2023Sorry to hear about your experience. We're always trying to hit the mark on great service, food, and atmosphere. This is being immediately addressed. Hoping you'll give us another chance in the future for dinner/ lunch plans!

The food and service were excellent and the beer was great. We are so happy to have this location open again. Our only complaint was that it was very cold - I never took my coat off - and by the time we left, my feet were aching from the cold. Hopefully, this can be resolved and we will definitely go back.

The brunch was good but they need to serve iced tea and regular black hot tea. It was very chilly as they had just opened. The beignets were excellent
Fifty West BrewpubResponded on January 19, 2023Thanks for the review, Cheri! We'll take note on adjusting the heat before opening, and the black tea option sounds great. Hope to see you in again soon!

Everything was good. We thought the ambiance could have been improved by insuring the heat is turned up by the time customers arrive. A real addition would be a fire in the fireplace on a cold damp night.

We had the hush puppies as appetizers. I don't know that I'd recommend them as they were chared and a little greasy. My wife had a small peanut salad which she enjoyed but could not finish and I had eggplant "parmesan" which was a contemporary spin on Parmesan but also quite good.
