Sabina B.June 16, 2015Staff is really sweet & friendly. Awesome selection of local beers and bloodies (go spicy or go home), & food is on point👌🏽. Try The Catch or Lobster Mac & Cheese.
Ruth XJanuary 10, 2016Beer and food is delicious and modern but it is always so busy and loud. I've had to stand up a few times at the bar and you have to yell if you want to speak to your friends. Great happy hour spot.- Chef Andrew Velasco has created a menu of fresh and delightful selections to pair up with some 32 kegs of microbrew on tap. The Bier Garden can get packed at night, but it's worth the elbow nudges.
Betsy RauMarch 2, 2018Beef short ribs nachos were great. Enough for two. Pork belly burger also good.
Pete CaselliniApril 27, 2013Limited menu to start, but there's an excellent tap selection and great outdoor tables where you can judge everybody walking into Whole Foods (and vice versa)
Shiloh NicolaNovember 24, 2013The bacon and cheddar Bloody Mary is amazing and the Mac and cheese with short ribs is amazing as well!!
Nikhil ShethNovember 29, 2014All of the beers served are within 65 miles of Bier Garden. Be sure to try sculpin IPA
Hillary FolsomFebruary 27, 2019The salmon burger hit the spot. They got pretty good taco Tuesday deals too
Liz ZiegJuly 22, 2014Best bloody marys...the herbal is my favorite! Love the layout and atmosphere of this place.
Michael JonesApril 4, 2015Great tap list, also opens up so you feel like your outside when your inside.
Jonam LeBlancAugust 24, 2013Check out the all night happy hour on Wednesdays. Great food, great beer at an amazing location!!
Sam WhiteJuly 18, 2013Ditch the wooden chair outside and grab one of the greenies with a backrest. Kick back, grab a beer and repeat as needed
Jon O'HareJune 27, 2013sub par at best, staff was great, beer was good...food presentation was great, but lacked in taste, soggy calamari, lobster BLT was weak, braised short rib sand which was dry, app and drinks nexttime- John CassilloMarch 21, 2015Really crowded spot right on the main drag -- good beer list, but avoid the busier hours.
Ignore the ignorant haters. This is a great place to chill and have some good food- M CJuly 13, 2013It's $7 for a pint and no pitchers available. They're currently playing R. Kelly slow jams and service is so-so at best. Beer selection is great along with location.
OTB Consulting GroupMarch 1, 2014Watch those waiters… they sure don't like to follow up on the orders and how your dining experience was. Food was pretty good though
Kate GrumblesNovember 11, 2013Food is okay (we had the ribs to start and the BG burger), but the service is so bad it's almost criminal.
