We had the beer sampler (their own beers) and split an appetizer and entree. Left absolutely stuffed! Do know that the menu on the restaurant website doesn't have the current prices. I hope they update it soon - it's misleading, even if it's only off by a dollar or two. More

Not much to look at but good food, beer, and service. Some expensive stuff, but some good deals at happy hour: $.50 oysters, $2.75 beers, $5 pizza. We got a basket with fish,shrimp, and clams for $10. It was a lot of food! No kids menu. They just split a basket. The sampler is $5.50. It was fun to try... More

I love trying new beers and was excited to try these. We ordered the sampler to try everything they had to offer and I had a Marzen. The Marzen was very average, it almost tasted like an Amber. I did like the Stout. The other beers were indistinguishable. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. It almost seemed as... More

Unusually, a second 5-star review from me. Knowledgeable staff, great food, nice brewpub atmosphere. My companion had the beer sampler, and was surprised to really enjoy all 5 of the sample beers. Had the BBQ platter special (Thursday) - a huge portion, came with ribs, sausage, brisket, potato, vegetable, salad, and a basket of AWESOME beer bread. The ribs and... More

Tried to open a bottle of ketchup and had it explode all over us, the bar and our food. The smell was terrible and the mess even more so. We were only offered a few napkins to clean the mess with no offer to help nor to replace our food which had been covered by ketchup that was definitely off.... More

My brother and I wanted to stop somewhere while we were out and get a drink. We stopped in to the PI Brewing Co and glad we did. They had their own micro-brews and some great appetizers. Our big family trip is coming up in about 2 months and I'm thinking we will have to stop in again. More

it was okay. We were expecting a brewery and it was a family restaurant. The Cantina area was closed, so we had to enjoy, or try, our beer with a bunch of children there. Not really the idea we had in mind when we pulled up. More

The food has been consistantly very good since this pub was built many years ago. Happy hour features some light food plates and special price on beer. More
