The beer selection here is awesome! The location is alittle tricky, but if you can find the parking lot you’re good. The food is also pretty good too! My only reservations about this place is that the servers are spread alittle thin and often forget about you. But that doesn’t stop us from going.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this place. It was very spacious and had tons of seating. The food came out in a timely matter, but I thought the service could have been a little better. It wasn’t a big deal since the food came out quickly. I do not recall any of the prices, apologies. For appetizers, the white meat chicken bites and Moroccan stacked dip was ordered. The chicken bites were served with fries. There was not too many pieces of chicken I thought. The sauces were all solid, but the black rum BBQ sauce was the best. The other sauces were ranch and honey mustard. The fries were tasty and seasoned well. This appetizer was nothing to get excited about however. The Moroccan stacked dip was real solid. The dip contained white bean purée, harissa, yogurt, tomatoes, avocados, cheddar, and chopped olives. It was a nice touch of Mexican and Greek tastes. All of the ingredients blended extremely well with one another. The naan was toasted perfectly too. For an entrée, I ordered the lamb burger(triple stacked, extra charge). The burger also contained fries. The burger contained ground lamb and beef patty with goat cheese, pesto, red pepper aioli, red onions, tomato, and arugula on a brioche bun. The burger was cooked to a perfect medium and was very juicy. The ingredients that stood out to me were the red onions and aioli. There could have been more goat cheese on the burger. The bun was too soft for me though. I just really enjoyed the taste of the lamb and beef mix. It was outstanding. Will I go back? No doubt. There were lots of interesting options on the menu.

I really like Brickhouse Tavern. They have a large drink/beer menu with great happy hour specials. Nice atmosphere. Tons of TVs. Average wait staff. Their pretzel appetizer is delicious! Their burgers are very tasty and huge! Quality and quantity is on point at this place. The menu is versatile enough. It seems the food can be hit or miss but so far the pretzels, burgers, and drinks have been great. Next time I want to try the Greek meatballs! I think this place is great for anything: date, happy hour, friend meet up, small family meet up, or just to come watch a game on TV. It is like a better version of Friday’s: better food, better atmosphere, yet still not too pretentious. Enjoy!

First let me say I’m sad to see Macaroni Grill go even though I hadn’t visited in years and the quality has drastically declined as I grew older it still had sentimental value… But anyway, Brick House Tavern has replaced it, and the one thing I love is that it’s so cheap! Buying 2 full beer bongs(or 4 half bongs) is enough to split with about 6 people, and there’s so many options. You can also choose cider for the bongs, which is perfect for people who may not love beer(me). I’ve also tried some of their specialty cocktails, I can’t remember which one I had, but it was not as good as it sounded on paper. The food is pretty okay, I’d say it’s about average bar food. However, service is absolutely abysmal… good luck finding your server if you want to order another round.

I just ordered a mimosa from here during their brunch. It was plain OJ. when I nicely addressed this with the waiter he stated«this is how they come». OHOKAY.? so much for customer service. if you’re going to offer a drink on your menu — DOITRIGHT!

I have passed this place a million times since it has opened and I recently finally got the chance to try it out. The indoor décor has a cool sports vibe to it with brick walls and televisions everywhere, especially the bar area. The bar area is big with lots of hightop tables and comfortable chairs. There are lots of different beers on tap here(no surprise from the name). I am not really a beer drinker so its a cocktail for me. I chose the Blackberry Collins which is made with Tito’s vodka, St. Germain, soda and muddled blackberries. I didn’t expect a cocktail like this to come from a place that specializes in beer, but it was made to perfection. I ordered the Bison Burger as my meal which comes with a jalapeño cilantro mayo, cheddar, lettuce, tomato and onion on a brioche bun. It also comes with candied bacon but I had them remove it. sorry bacon lovers! Overall I thought the burger was just ok. It seemed like the meat was broken in half and my burger was falling apart. The presentation also could have been a little better, it looked like it was just slapped together. Yes, I know I’m not at a fine dining restaurant but the presentation for my friends meals were normal. Would I come here again? Sure. The bar area is nice and lots of alcohol options beyond beer.

Could be five stars but… –1 star: Server gives me beer. I drink half. Now notice HUGE crack that goes around the glass. I point it out, she says, «Was it always like that?». I dunno, but I know I didn’t do it. She says I’ll bring you a new one. So she does bring me a new glass and pours my half beer into it. Uhhhh. Nope. –1 star and 5% off my starting 20% tip. –1 star: Loudest place I have ever eaten. I mean not just loud, but scream at the person next to you loud. My head hurt after leaving. Remaining three stars. Food was excellent!

Beer is good and a nice selection. Bartenders need to pay attention to the customers and stop talking to each other. Food choices are good but the execution is way off. Also, some ladies of the evening working the bar with the consent of manager on duty! Unbelievable!!’

GUYS. Get it together. Just went today during a very non-busy Wednesday afternoon. Our waitress«didn’t know she had a table» so she took about 10 minutes to even come to our table. Then, I ordered the Caeser Wedge. That’s literally what it was called on the menu. They brought a salad that was clearly not what I ordered, but I didn’t have time to send it back cause we were on a lunch break, so I ate it. When she came with the check at the end, I told her, «I’m just letting you know that this wasn’t what I ordered — I ordered the Caeser Wedge, so I just want to know if I can pay for that if it is cheaper than what I got». Her response was… *blank stare*, followed by «You ordered the wedge, there’s only one wedge salad on the menu.» I proceeded to show her, on the menu, where it distinctly says«Brick Wedge» AND«Caeser Wedge». She begrudgingly said«ok» and pretty much just walked away. CUSTOMERSERVICENO-NO: Blame the customer for your mistake, then tell them they are wrong even though they are correct. If she’d just apologized, there’d be no issue. Not worth the long wait, rude service or the incorrect food. Will not be returning here.

Came on a busy Saturday night around 7, place was almost totally full so I’m glad we had a reservation. They have bar seating, high tables near the bar & low tables with couch like seating for their booths. Was surprised at how big it is inside & also how loud it was, but it was during an NFL playoff game on a Saturday night, so I don’t know if that’s the norm. Food was OK, not amazing, service was OK too. Also didn’t seem like they really had all that many options for entrees but have maybe a dozen appetizers & a ton of different drinks. I don’t think they have desserts though.

The menu is unusual. The food is very good. They have pork chops that are the best I’ve ever had. I love the black & blue chips. I get them every time I am there. I was there at 6 pm on a Saturday night with a 1 hour wait, but they have all of these empty seats with reserve signs on them. I was baffled that they would allow seats to stay empty on a busy Saturday night on the hopes that people would eventually show. We were seated within a half hour, but those seats were still reserved for over an hour. One other thing that bugged me was they send me emails about unlimited apps, but try to find any info on that when you get to the restaurant. I had to ask and the waitress had to ask someone about it. It gets you there, but there is no special menu or any reference to this deal.

This place has a great atmosphere floor plan with about 40 tv’s and two fireplaces. Great happy hour specials. Food variety and quality are great. They have a great selection of beers on tap and so many drinks specials. This is a great place to watch football. They even ha e some recliner seats in front of the big screen. Unfortunately, some Patriot fans beat me too it. So far, I have had the deviled eggs, pretzels, shrimp and tater tots(not all in one day) and they have all been fantastic. Fresh and great portion sizes. Amanda is our server today and she is fantastic. Always comes around seeing if we need anything and happy to give menu r commendations and joke around. They also have some great brunch specials. Stop by and check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

The ambiance is on point! Nice furniture, fireplaces, and flat screen tvs everywhere! The food though is ok nothing stellar but not horrible either. The best thing my husband and I had hear were the pretzels and the man cave wings. The worse was the brick oven pizza which was doughy and barely done. The chicken sandwich we ordered was just ok. However I have to note that we had two beers, wings, pretzels, pizza, and a sandwich during happy hour and the total bill was only $ 39.00! All and all I think we would return for the happy hr prices.

Currently in The Brick Tavern after seeing a movie and hubby showing me pics of the food. I saw duck legs on the menu. I love duck and lamb(they have lamb burgers) so decided to give it a go. The happy hour prices starts at 3:00 — pretty awesome. Anything over $ 9 is $ 7 under $ 10 is $ 5. $ 9 specialty drinks(blood orange & stormy — bicardi oakwood rum, blood orange liqueur, crème de coco, ginger beer) are $ 6, $ 6 wine, $ 3 well drinks — awesome. Great beer selection — $ 1 cans and $ 3, $ 4, $ 5 drafts. For appetizers we had the duck with cilantro and a sweet Thai sauce, deviled eggs, and calamari with a great dipping sauce and served with peppers. The Monday special is 100 percent kobe beef chili dogs with tots(or as mom would say when we were kids — tiny taters for tiny tots — thanks mom!) The tots were great and brought out nice and hot, the dog not so much and where was the chili? Okay not the best thing on the menu, taste wise. Hubby liked his dog. Frankly, give me a Nathan dog any day or a NYC dog from a street cart. The. Best. Hot. Dogs. In. The. World, besides a New York slice(for non New Yorkers, pizza). Accept no substitutes. Despite other reviews, the service was fine, but then, not crowded at all. We sat on the secret side of the bar. But, first, I warmed my cold butt at the fireplace blazing in the back. We’ll be back. 4 stars for knocking those prices back at happy hour !

Very slow service, food is ok but more average than expected. Friendly service and the manager was fast giving us a free entrée because they«forgot» to assign a waiter to our table. There are other restaurants within walking distance which are more recommendable.

I really like Brick House because it’s close, the food is really good, the beer is fantastic, and all my friends go there all the time. But the service is freaking terrible. I consistently have to wait to be greeted, wait unnecessarily long for my drink, wait, wait, wait. Particularly in the cocktail lounge, and not necessarily when it’s busy. The grilled cheese and tomato soup is a pretty seriously great dish. I don’t even care that their tomato soup is a far cry from actual soup. Like… that’s not soup, it’s not even stew. It’s tomato sauce and it’s a really thick one at that. But it’s good and any soup that you can eat while using a sandwich as a spoon is a plus, since you probably won’t be given any silverware anyways, since the server never brought any over. Duck wings are the best. Zucchini curls are great but they must be shared. It’s insane to eat a deep dish pie plate of a lot of fried breading and a little zucchini. The meatballs are popular but I think they’re only good because of the mancave sauce. I’ve never had dessert but I will one day. The steak and shrooms is the best bang for the buck I think. And the fried mushrooms are so good. Hahahaha one time I went here with Ned after we had been hanging out with farmer David and Ned got their special burger with avocado(hold the watermelon… seriously it originally had avocado and watermelon on it. Gross) and I got duck wings and fries and we ate. While we were eating dinner, Dave texted me that he was done and heading to meet us for a bite. By the time he got there Ned had pretty much finished his dinner but we looked at the menu with David and then Ned ordered a huge entrée salad. So he basically had two dinners in like the span of like 35 minutes. Now we make fun of him because clearly one dinner isn’t enough. If Brick House gets their server situation under control, they’ll be even more unstoppable than they already are. As it stands, the restaurant is hanging around the three star mark for moi.

Honestly, I truly, truly hate this place. The service ranges from exceptionally indifferent to tremendously rude, depending on the time of day. That said, I’ve been here multiple times, because the location is convenient and they have my favorite beer on draft most of the time(Carton Boat) for very cheap prices. I once walked in and sat at the bar for 10 minutes before leaving because the bartenders were too busy talking to look at me. I once came in on a Sunday and they had the patio closed off for a private party, I just wanted a drink so I asked if I could sit at the bar or the inside counters near the TVs and the girl at the door told me she had been instructed not to seat anyone else because the kitchen was backed up. I assured her I just wanted a drink, and she still said no. The food ranges from merely edible to hideous. That said, I unfortunately find myself back here from time to time because you can’t always get Boat in this area. This chain gets negative 5 stars, and the 1 star is because of 6 stars for Carton Boat beer.

Came here for lunch with colleagues one day. Was surprisingly quiet for a weekday afternoon given the prime location. We got seated promptly and also got rushed into placing our drink orders. We had asked for a minute to look over the menu and precisely 30 seconds later the waitress was back hollering in a mechanical tone«What can I get you guys for drinks?» Was puzzled as to why the waitress was so hasty. The reason I would discover 15 mins later — the office herd had arrived stomping at the door and tables started to fill up around us and there she was attending to everyone like Speedy Gonzalez Andele Andele Ariba Ariba. I’d been to another Brickhouse location for cerveza and loved the beer tower and the decent selection of brews that they had on their list. That was many moons ago so I figured I’ll try the food this time around at this location. The Wild Mushroom Pizza sounded pretty good: shiitake, portabello, cremini, mozzarella, brick cheese, roasted garlic oregano infused oil, baby arugula & goat cheese cream. So that was an easy choice. Voila! Food arrived at the speed of light. That’s when the band in my head switched songs from a fast-tempo jazz to a heartbreak melancholy. Saw a few big pieces of coarsely chopped white and Portobello button mushrooms, a strand or two of what seemed like Shiitake or was it Cremini mushrooms, Spinach(yes spinach instead of baby Arugula per the menu) and some white goat cheese cream splattered disgustingly on a doughey brick-like dense crust. They didn’t lie about the crust atleast. The menu clearly said«Brick Pizza». For a restaurant chain they’re doing fine concept wise but the execution of the menu and the monotone service leaves much to be desired. Oh and did I forget to mention that their urinals are luxuriously huge? Even an inebriated 21 something male would leave without marking his territory on the floor or the wall.

Beer list is great, food is fine(some dishes are great some are just meh from what I can tell throughout my 3 visits) Beer is REASONABLE though, especially if enough people in your party can agree on one and go for the«bong». Enjoy some craft beers at decent prices. The bar area can get LOUD and very full, so if that’s your scene enjoy. Otherwise, try the joint out on a week night to get a more clear indication of it’s true nature

First time here and I had a great time besides the 45 min wait that was supposed to be 20 min. But it was understandable since it was a Saturday night and we were a group of 8. Our server was kind and helpful. He gave us a gluten free menu as well. We got the beer tower which saves a ton of money. Duck pizza — sweet but I’ve had sweeter, cheesy, good size for 1 or to split. Also the man cave sauce is delicious Overall, I’ll come back if I’m in the area.
