| - We went on a Friday night and it was PACKED. We waited about 20 minutes, but boy was it worth it. We had a little trouble finding parking - it's located on a small street and I think most people had to find street parking. I really liked the ambiance of the place, though. Everyone was there to have a good time and people would be enjoying a beer while waiting for seats.
Waiting for seats took a while, but once we sat down, the food was really quick to arrive. I think the service was okay - it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't fantastic either. I attribute that to the fact that the place was just sooo busy.
We ordered Brickhouse wings for appetizer. I ordered the Italian Beef Beer Bread and my boyfriend ordered Bleu Light Special Burger. We also shared a pint of the Hop Knot IPA. The beer was exquisite. It had a rich flavor that you can really enjoy. I definitely want to go back and try their other ales. The wings were really good, too - a little spicy for my liking (we sampled all three flavors), but a good starter nonetheless. My boyfriend's burger was all right, kind of like any other burger. But the beer battered fries it came with was PHENOMENAL. It's definitely a must-try if you go. Even in England, I'd never had such flavorful beer battered fries. I also loooved my Italian Beef Beer Bread. It came in a wrap instead of sandwich. The wrap was soft and had a nice texture, and it was stuffed to the brim with tender roast beef and medley of cheeses and veggies. I just had my left overs for lunch, and it was still amazing.
Definitely will go back!
