GREAT space! Decent beer. OK food.
Overall, I like it - it works. I was in awe to see how they've transformed a space I never thought of as being an asset to the neighborhood into something absolutely beautiful. They've clearly put some money into this investment.
The beer is decent for what it is. I don't expect a brand new brewery to crank out absolutely amazing stuff right off the bat - it will take time to get there. I did notice that the prices seemed a bit on the high side, by Cleveland-standards anyway. Though this was even more true for the "guest beers" on the menu than for the in-house brews.
I really hope that West 25th isn't turning into the new place where underage kids from the suburbs go "clubbing" on the weekend, as some other reviews have suggested. If McNulty can cater to the right crowd, his places will continue to be the best in town.
