| - Went back in May with BF, who works in the area.
On a Thursday night, this place is filled to the rafters with guys in suits, and women who prowl the aforementioned. It seemed to be a lot of groups of "you bring a few single friends, I'll do the same".
I felt out of place in my causal jeans, tee, and blazer.
We got wings with blue cheese dip (completely unmemorable, but not bad either). I let the barman pick a flight of three samplers for me. My partner got a St.Ambroise.
The flight was interesting, with a lot of variety, but with no theme, nor vertical or lateral movement (meaning there was no logical/ palate transition between beers). Chocolate stout, a Vienna lager, and a spicy blonde- none were memorable enough to make note of. But that doesn't change my rating of Beerbistro, as when letting other people pick with no criteria, you can't really fault the result.
Just under $30 for a couple drinks and a snack (before tax and tip)... pretty average for the area.
Noise: deafening over the flirting of groups of singles.
Service: Just average.
For a rocking total of: Just a-ok.
Not a bad choice if you're really into beer, wanting to get into beer, post work drinks, or having a small get together.
Definitely not a good choice for romantic dates, memorable food, or a casual evening.
