Absolutely try the chicken & waffles (with the cornered waffle). If you want a little something extra, try it with the chocolate stout (;

Honey wheat was good, and server was friendly despite being busy/understaffed. Fried okra was great too! Especially with the southwest sauce

Fish and Chios are great ...liked the Scottish Ale and the Nexus Steam...Sandi had the IPA and said it was great

Wow! The food is amazing here. Red beans & rice, better than Nola. True! Grilled fish tacos - way good!

Outstanding beer and food... needs to be a must stop when in ABQ.

Went there cause I heard they had really good fried pickles… and I tried the fish and chips as They always do at breweries, what a disappointment on both!

Fried pickles were disappointing, burger with green chiles was a bit of a redemption. Still - not a personal favorite. Good beer that's brewed on the premises.

Delicious chicken and waffles but avoid the collared greens - they were bitter and inedible

Great beers and the New Mexico Hot Chicken was Fire!!!

Like everyone says, the chicken rules. Either with a waffle, or just the hit wings.

Had 4 great 5ozers and a huge fish & chips dinner fit for the Queen. Absolutely outstanding.

Love the fish and chips but these pork sliders with NM red chili are the bomb!

Gumbo or the Red Beans & rice are excellent choices, add the shrimp

Everyone knows that the chicken and waffles are awesome, but the hot wings are possibly even better.

Everything is great here except the nachos.

Never had pulled pork nachos and OMG, they go great with the white Ale!

The catfish was delicious! Great cornmeal coating and not too thick!
FergsDecember 31, 2018
Meh. Very underwhelming. Had the catfish to start, little to no flavor. Then had the pulled pork. I was expecting a little heat but it wasnt there. Wife had frito pie but left half of it. Just meh.

Won't be returning. Terrible service during brisk lunch hour meant a late return to work. Not to mention the two large parties with 4+ kids in tow each turning the sunroom into a gymboree. No thanks!
Nickole SchoberAugust 23, 2019
The food is decent, I wasn’t blown away and they have a selection of beers but definitely not enough ciders. Overall it was okay

Try not to crash your truck in to the laundry place across the parking lot.
