Food: Good food but not the greatest. The fish taco was tasty (4 stars) which had nice fresh ingredients but the fish needed more flavor. The Burrata & Tomato Antipasto (5 stars) was flavorful and the cheese was really good. The Caesar Salad (3 stars) was traditional and I am not a big anchovy fan so it is not a high rating due to preference. You come here for the beers and they are all really good. I enjoyed their stout and there was no light penetration through the glass and it was tasty. Service: Good service and you need to use the app QR code on the table to order. You can still order at the bar but it is a little removed from people in that process. Ambiance: This is a great brewery with a good amount seating and had an awesome outdoor area with live music. There is a lot of space for larger groups and is a fun place to hang out on a lazy Sunday. Inside has a nice window of the brewery and the beer vats.

The burgers are smaller than some other places but they come with fries which fill you up leaving you very satisfied with the quality of the meal. Highly recommend :)

This dog friendly brewery gives has a fair amount of space to sit and enjoy a brew, but be warned - it's popular and can get crowded very quickly. We enjoyed the variety of beers available here.

I felt like I walked through a wormhole into the golden days of local brews. This place feels like if Bates Nut Farm had a brewery, in the best way. It's not flashy but doesn't need to be. The decor perfectly matches the neighborhood it's in; this is a place my dad would've stopped in for a beer after he worked a double shift. There's a timelessness to it. To boot: good beer. The Bill's Big Belgian is great. Boozy and kind of funky, sort of reminds me of a Flander's Red but just more brown. Good stuff. The Dragon Fire spicy fruit ale is no joke either. One taster is plenty, it packs a fiery punch. Service was friendly and accommodating. Place was exceptionally clean and the vibe was easy.

Standard variety of burgers, salads, wraps. On this stop I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos which are spicy and served in a "fried" tortilla with cheese (sort of half quesadilla with shrimp and a cabbage slaw. Iy also come with chips and salsa on the side, which I didn't need. I'll try something else the next time I stop here. My only complaint this time was the music. They played twangy country the entire time I was there. My least favorite genre. That aside, I'll be back another time. They also close early

I don't write Yelp reviews lightly, but The Side Yard absolutely deserves the praise…read more From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is something special. The atmosphere strikes that rare balance between relaxed neighborhood charm and thoughtfully curated design. It feels intimate without being cramped, lively without being loud. Whether you're meeting friends for brunch or settling in for a long, unhurried dinner, the space just works. The food is outstanding. Every dish feels intentional--fresh ingredients, bold but balanced flavors, and presentation that elevates the experience without being pretentious. You can taste the quality. The menu manages to be creative while still delivering comfort and approachability. It's the kind of place where you start planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished your plate. Service was equally impressive. Warm, knowledgeable, and attentive without hovering. The staff clearly take pride in what they're serving and genuinely want you to have a great experience. Hidden Meadows is lucky to have a spot like this. The Side Yard isn't just a restaurant--it's a destination. Five stars, easily. I'll absolutely be back.

For food we ordered chips and guacamole, truffle fries, buffalo hot wings, Brussels sprouts and a classic burger with a beer. Overall, food is decent in your typical American sport bar food. If k have to pick my favorites out of the stuff we ordered, would be the truffle fries. Even with happy hours pricing.. we spent about $120 on appetizers , two drinks and two beers. As far with the game, I wish it was louder or have better speakers inside. As we walked out, we realized outside speakers is louder than inside

You order at the counter and they'll bring the food to your table. It's hard to find a burger place with all my favorites: an egg, bacon, and avocado. The bacon was crispy, the egg was medium and wasn't too runny, and the brioche bread was a little sweet and fluffy. They use angus beef for their patties. You can also split your fries which I love! I got to try the onion rings and sweet potato fries. I wish the sweet potato fries were crispy. They were more on the soggy side. The onion rings batter was a lil thicker than I like. The batter overpowered the onion. We also got the Cajun wings to try which was nice and crispy! They give you a few sauces on the side so you can dip it. I got the ranch which was so good with the wings, fries and burger. The milkshakes are pretty delicious! We got the classic vanilla one. It was a pretty thick shake so you know they use legit ice cream! I also liked the peach lemonade. I would check this place out if you're in the area!
