Came for a quick bite… left questioning all my previous food choices.
The food was ridiculously good — like “why don’t I eat here every week?” good. Everything was hot, fresh, and didn’t last long enough for pictures because we demolished it.
And the beer selection? I’m pretty sure they have 100 taps. I stopped counting somewhere between “I’ll try something new” and “I live here now.”
Great atmosphere, awesome vibe, and enough beer options to make commitment issues feel justified.
10/10 — bring friends, or don’t… more food and beer for you.

We were in town for the weekend and were trying to find a place to meet up with a friend who lived near. He highly recommended this place. I love the location as there is a lot of other restaurants, bars, retail that you can go to within walking distance. The area has been recently gone through a major change in the last 5 years. I actually had to walk around the place because it was so cool and I wanted to see everything. You have to go to the counter to order and then they bring your food out to you at your table. Lots of beer choices. The inside has plenty of tables and booths to accommodate any size parties. Outside they have games, picnic tables, covered seating areas, etc. It’s a really cool vibe and I definitely recommend it would go again!

If you go on Tuesdays its half price beer and they have 100 on tap. Great selection and you can sample a couple if you are unsure. Friendly staff! Food is pretty decent. Try the Port tenderloin sandwich with the spice and cheese. Also waffle fries are great. I messed up and ordered wrong one on this pic, get the waffle fries!

Only eaten take out, but I can tell you,the staff is friendly and helpful in our brief Interactions. Amazing atmosphere, but I’m single on business, so I haven’t sat to eat. But on that same note, if your at the blackhawk, and hate phone calls, their online room service portal is down. Armored gardens is across the street,its been my go to and I have yet to be disappointed by a single thing I’ve ordered and I typically order weird shit rather then menu stapes.

I was not prepared for the insane amount of beer on tap! Incredible selection, and a knowledgeable bartender that helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. The food was delicious, and there was a variety of seating options. I also got a free beer with my entree

We had our regular lunch meeting here and it was a nice place. Food was good. You order on one side to the north of the bar and order you drinks on the south side of the bar. We have our meetings once a week and would suggest them getting waitresses. First place we patronized that didn’t have servers. My first thought was these people doing the work don’t get the tips they should. When you order food at the window and pay why would you tip them at that time not knowing if you will be happy with the food? I know when we order a drink we drop a couple of extra bucks on the bar for the bartender when you order but food is a different story. Our group is very generous with tipping and this place shorted themselves. The good was good, smash hamburgers and a generous amount of frys were the special and I believe it was $8 which is a great price. When the first member showed up he ordered a appetizer trio of onion rings, bread sticks, and cheese curds which all were great( I believe the price was $28. Beings there were ten of us the even though the tables are tables were big they told us we couldn’t pull another over to accommodate the group. Most places accommodate us better. The place is big open airy space. If it would have been warmer we would have sat outside, it looked nice out there and beings our meetings go two to three hours we would have enjoyed the outside better.

First off I’ve absolutely loved this place. Came in to try it for the first time for lunch. Not much of a cider guy but today’s special was all the cider was half off so I dabbled. They have very unique choices from many local breweries which is pretty cool. 9 ciders out of 100 different taps so
Many to choose from. Tried 4 different ones for 3 dollars a pop! Ordered the Cajun burger which was absolutely great. Kinda of a better tasting quality Steak ‘n Shake style patty. It wasn’t too busy but my food came out fast, hot, and fresh in like 5 min. Fries were piping hot and got a side a beer cheese. Service was great, Nikki never let my beverage hit the bottom before offering another. Definitely coming back again for sure.

The fish tacos were alright. The cheese curds were very good. This place has a very fun vibe. They have 100 beers on tap and show you how full each keg is. It looks very cool. Food is ordered at the counter and delivered to the table, drinks are at the bar.
