    Went here for trivia and this is going to be our new go to place! They have great beers and I love that you can get a flight to try a few different ones. I tried the tapalope, no carrot all, b passionate, and college water and they were all super tasty but I think the tapalope was my favorite. It had such a good flavor but wasn't too hoppy. We also got the pretzel sticks and they were exactly what I wanted - very salty and chewy, and the cheese sauce and mustard were the perfect accompaniments. They had lots of seating and our server was super nice and came to check on us a bunch. Great place to stop in benson!

    This space is very nice, the staff is friendly, and the service was quick! We went for the Omaha Restaurant Week menu and also had an order of fish and chips! For $16 the fish and chips were great! Nice large pieces of fish, decent fries and a nice dipping sauce! The Restaurant Week menu was okay, I had anticipated the cauliflower to be a whole plate of just cauliflower but it was a few pieces on some lettuce. Not bad just not my jam. The steak was good, the potatoes that were with it were okay, they were missing something but I couldn't figure out what, just a little bland and didn't blend well with the steak. The lemon bar was LOVELY! I really liked them, not too sweet or tart and had a cute little burnt lemon on top! I had the red sangria (a summer special) and we had a glass of college water (one of their permanent beers), both were great! The sangria had cider in it which was so great, a fun take on the usual sangria, the college water tasted just like a light beer you could drink for hours at a hot sports game. Overall, a great experience and pretty good food!

    Fries

    Ordered the mustard ipa chicken wings and order of fries. Fries were good. Freshly made and hand cut. Could use a little salt. Wings on the other hand... nothing good I can say about them. They were bland, and soft. Absolutely no flavor whatsoever. That's about it. Tried to get through one but couldn't. Definitely will not do any of their food in the future.

    Benson Brewery is a solid staple in the Benson neighborhood, with great beer/drinks selection and pretty tasty food options. The interior decor is very diner-style, with a long booth along one side, and bar seating on the other. The open kitchen can be seen at the far end of the restaurant, which is always kind of nice to see. There is a side room that's great for overflow on busy days or for larger groups/events. A few tables and chairs are also out front on the patio. My favorite beer they have is the Blonde Bunny when I want something lighter. A lot of their other beer options are sours or IPAs or darker, which I know is some people's cup of tea - just not mine Appetizer-wise, I love the Brussels Sprouts, but they seem to have changed a little over the years. This past time there was a lot less balsamic, and some type of fruit/vegetable (maybe the candied oranges?) that had a numbing effect on my mouth. My friend who had the same app agreed, so it wasn't just me. Still tasty and all, but just different from previous times I had ordered it. The Brew Fries are absolutely delicious, with house seasoning and a few dips you can order, including a homemade ranch that was to die for. And then there's my favorite entree/sandwich - the pork tenderloin! It's breaded to perfection, the aioli is super yummy (I always order extra), and the bun comes all toasty and divine. I have never gotten a good photo of this, because it gets gobbled up so quickly! The service was great the last time we were there with a group of 17 (!!!) so kudos to the staff in putting up with us :-) I would definitely recommend Benson Brewery for a quick bite, great beer, or to catch a game.

    We headed to Benson Brewery in Omaha with the whole family. This brewery is bigger than it looks from the outside, and it strikes the right balance between quirky and casual. It seems to be a great spot for date night and casual get-togethers with friends or family. I ordered the Bacon Bleu Burger, and it came cooked to perfection - I loved the blend of the bacon and tangy blue cheese. My husband was super-happy about the vegetarian options, including Vegan Gyro, Black Bean Burger, and Seitan Vegan Wings. It's pretty rare to find that many veggie options on a smaller menu like this. Our server was so friendly and frequently checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The prices are a bit on the high side, but the quality and flavors made it all worthwhile. And the guys raved about the beers, so that was an extra plus! Overall, great experience!!

    The service was great, even on a busy weekend. Highly recommended the pretzel appetizers with the mustard and queso. The sauce that is made in house for the fish and chips is out of this world!

    Can't beat a good burger! Good tasting beer too. Always good conversations and atmosphere when going in.

    Sadly Benson Brewery did not live up to the hype. We got two seasonal beers and the mainstay sour. The beers were all good. We followed that with the pretzel sticks and brussel sprouts. The Brussels sprouts were the highlight of the meal. A uniquely prepared dish with oranges. It was the burgers where things took a turn. The menu states made to order, warns about undercookedeat, etc. And the waitress asked how we wanted them made. Our three burgers were supposed to be medium and medium rare but all were well done. If you aren't going to even attempt to make them as ordered, why ask? There are so many great Benson restaurants that we probably won't be back, but if we do return we will stick to beer and apps.

    I enjoyed this place specifically for the vegan options. I had the gyro and the wings and if I had choose between I'd go for the gyro. There were a lot of beer options to choose from but they're all quality options. They have TVs if you want to watch the game and they have room for your friends to meet up! Overall for food and drink purposes it's a solid pick if you're in the area. Also if you have time to stop by during happy hour I'd recommend.

    Cool brewery in a cool neighborhood. A good variety of beers on tap. Great atmosphere. Yummy food. Got the bacon blue burger, Cuban sandwich and Mac and cheese. Traci was a good waitress. We even got a T-shirt for a souvenir.

    Black Bean Burger and amazing side salad !

    Stumbled upon this business through Uber Eats (or DoorDash). I messaged them on instagram to…read moreconfirm that they are 100% vegan. Tracked down their food truck and gave them a try. The menu is vegan fast/comfort/junk food, but for a food truck, it's a fairly extensive menu. I decided to try the hard shell tacos. 2 crispy corn shell tacos with Beyond Beef; no cheese - $8. They were ok. Nothing stood out in terms of flavor, seasoning, toppings, etc. An innovative salsa and topping would set these off. Loaded Fries - A ton of seasoned crinkle fries loaded with Beyond Beef, onions, lettuce, fried jalapeño crisps, and other things that I omitted (queso, tomato, and ranch). I added vegan bacon. Now, without the queso, it is dry and you definitely feel like something is missing. (Completely my choice, since I don't like queso or cheesy anything) I got some vegan spicy aioli from a nearby place and it was perfection! Delicious! I'd go back for this junk food fest! Cheesecake Egg Roll - I know, I know. I hate cheese and cheesy things, but cheesecake is different. I've always loved cheesecake. It's cheesecake-like filling inside a deep fried shell, topped with strawberries. It's more like a wonton or dessert taco than an egg roll, but it was so yummy. Messy and delicious. Would definitely order it again. Check their website and ig for their food truck schedule and give them a try.
