   Great atmosphere and ambiance in a beer garden-like setting. Excellent tasting beers and amazing, large pretzels but the food is overall average. Our hamburgers were dry and overcooked, and the salads were basic and average tasting. I believe that in a beer garden all servers must have intimate knowledge of all the beers, their characters, and what separates one from another. When I asked the server what beer he has that's "malty", he looked at my like I had three eyes. When food was served to us, we had no napkins or utensils. These aren't hard things to fix, but need attention. Still a fun place for beers and sports TV watching, but it's noisy!

   First time there. The food was really good. I live in Jamison in Bucks County and we could use a place like this in our neighborhood.

   Burger was very bad. Ordered Med Rare came out Well Well Well done. Absolutely no flavor. Beer that they have is good but not much variety in styles

   This place is perfect if you are going to a concert at Union Transfer. Only 1 block away. Excellent selection of beers and good selection of entrees. My only complaint was my breading on my fish sandwich was a bit undercooked so when you bit into the fish it was not crisp. Great fries and the spring mix salad was huge. The service was very good. Overall, I'd recommend this restaurant.

   Thanks to the staff for taking care of us on Super Bowl Sunday, they went out of their way to accommodate us.

   Went for the Eagles/Vikings game and I’m so thankful we did! You couldn’t have had a better experience than what we had. The service was amazing! For a crowd of the size that was there, we never had to search for our server. They were attentative, food was quick, beer was served quick. I mean, I’ve never had an experience as good as the one I had during a major event. Plus, being in the neighborhood, it’s just great having this gem there. Happy hour specials are awesome, really good food (not just wings, which are awesome!) If you have a chance, get there, it’s an awesome fun place to be!

   Food was not very flavorful. Waitress was cranky and forgetful. Beer was good.

    a little pricey and some of the menu offerings were more art than food, but the beer is top notch. I like to think I am some what of an expert on brew pubs and this was some of the best beer I have ever tried, tip of my hat to the brewmeister. once you get past the Portlandesque trendy hipster menu descriptions, the food was actually pretty amazing. portion sizes were worth higher prices. the appetizer menu is definitely not your typical fare but if you are a foody who likes to explore new tastes than this is definitely the place for you. my only real complaint was the service, which was only so-so. we sat there for over an hour and never saw the waitress after our meal was delivered. I really would have liked another beer or 2. It wasn't overly busy so I am not sure why this happened but it may have just been a one off. overall I would recommend this place
