This place is great if you come on a weekday with a reservation! There is no timed dining like on the weekends with back to back reservations. Gavin was our server and he was awesome! Super attentive! Food: Skip the stuffed mushrooms but get the artichokes and fried pickles! Vegan Pizza 10/10 - Meatlovers Pizza 10/10- Italian hamburger 8/10 (the patty is great although the burger itself is bland) Mediterranean hamburger7/10 (the patty is great although it's just a weird flavor combo, it works just not something I would recommend) I was delivered the wrong burger, black and blue, and I took a bite before I noticed it wasn't for our table and I did not enjoy it. However if red onions with blue cheese is your thing you would love it (just pack some altoids). Drinks: Skip the espresso martini- it tastes like every single one you have had but they advertise it as a tiramisu. Get the airplane - we love the aperol Get the cosmo- it was so good! Best on the menu- the garden party (picture below) very refreshing and full of subtle flavor. Ambiance - chill read more

Checked out Birdtown Brewing for dinner and really enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere. The brewery is located inside a beautifully restored 100-year-old church, and the space is stunning. It blends historic architecture, including stained glass windows and vaulted ceilings with a modern brewery vibe, which makes it such a unique place to dine. We started with the Fried Pickle Chips served with sriracha ranch. The housemade beer batter was so light and airy, making them some of the better fried pickles we've had. My youngest son ordered the housemade Italian Wedding Soup and was excited to see mocktails on the menu. He chose the tiramisu espresso mocktail and definitely felt fancy ordering it. My oldest son went with the Birdtown Classic burger topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, and gouda with fries. I ordered the Black & Blue burger with a peppercorn crust, crumbled bleu cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion with a side Caesar salad, while my husband chose the Mediterranean burger topped with lettuce, tomatoes, feta, tzatziki, housemade tapenade, and marinated cucumbers also with fries. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well prepared, and the atmosphere alone makes this place worth visiting. Definitely a unique local spot we'd come back to again read more

I want to love this place; but after two visits I can't go higher than a like. It's visually a stunner...kudos to whoever saw the old bones of a 100 year old church and crafted it into a modern yet classical three level restaurant. The service here is competent. I just wish the beer & food rose to the impressive structure. It's a brewery, yet it only features a few of its own taps. The other offerings are guest taps, and not many of those either. Their IPA was full bodied and delicious but the Quail Ale was light in color and flavor. A generous serving of tasty whipped feta was frustrated by an embarrassingly small portion of toast points. We had three-quarters of dip left with nothing to dip it in. Come on, Birdtown, think! Geraci's has the food license here, so if you like their pizza you won't be disappointed. I thought it tasted okay, but I'm not a thin crust guy. I'll order flatbread if I want thin crust. Slightly dry pie too. No quarrel with a juicy charred burger, though. Delicious and would order again. The check arrives and 113 dollars later, it just didn't feel like a good value for the very basic food we ordered. read more

Came here for lunch on a busy Saturday afternoon. Got lucky and was able to park in their lot. Not many spaces so it's good when you get one. Sat at the bar. Tables were open but they told us a 20 min wait so we sat at bar which is fine. Got a menu and it's Geraci's pizza. I grew up on a Geraci's pizza so that's great! They also had lots of apps, burgers, subs and such. I don't think you can go wrong. We got the Geraci's salad bowl and a large veggie deluxe. The salad bowl was not quite the same as the one I am used to. But it was OK. A bit smaller for the price. The pizza was the same . Tasted like old times and was good. They did not skimp on the toppings! I got the cider it was dry but not horrible. They have some IPA's not a big fan of IPA's. And other options. My partner got the strawberry julep. It was good she enjoyed. The bartender was nice and helpful. He was a good server too. Food came out within 10 mins. Sitting at the bar was good. The place is super cool. They have painted walls and the one end is all brewery and they have seating upstairs. Windows are stained glass. Cool space. We will be back. read more

Was in the neighborhood decided to give it a try. Thankfully wasn't busy as normal? But was still limited parking wise and there was a small wait when checking in. After trying to order a beer from the bar which was pretty hard. They really need to separate a seat section for bar orders. Was lucky enough to get two seats at the bar. The place was about 1/2 full and pretty loud. Tried the C2B IPA which the wife liked. I did the Basement Jacuzzi IPA and then sampled the Zen Arcade which I couldn't do. But maybe if I'd done in reverse would've been okay with. We then ordered small Honey Pie which was fantastic. Was interesting to see a Geraci's attached to this place. The pizza was the right amount for the wife and I with our beers. Will be back. Suggest anyone else looking for a new brewery to check out to check this place out. read more

I came in on a Saturday a few weeks after Birdtown opened. It was very crowded, but we had made reservations. It is a really cool building and their patio also looks really nice. It was so loud in there though that it was sort of difficult to have conversations with people at your table. I'd like to go back on a weeknight when it might be a little quieter. I had one of their hazy IPAs and it was fine. I didn't try any of the food, but the menu had quite a few options. I do wish there were more beers to pick from and maybe more fun flavors. I think Birdtown is a nice addition to Lakewood and I hope that they work out some of their starting kinks. read more

Went to Birdtown Brewing on Friday night and it was pakced! It is a loud venue that has an energizing atmosphere. Seating on the main level, a upper balcony, and the basement. The basement also has some games (pinball, bowling, pac man, etc.). My group had some mixed reviews on the food, but overall it was food. The buffalo chicken pizza's toppings were light, the stuffed mushrooms were dry, and the burger was just ok. The artichoke appetizer, pretzel bites, ceasear salad, and meat lovers pizza were delicious. I'd go again - now I just know what I wouldn't order again! Their beers were good - we tried a couple of their handles. Our service was good too, for how busy they were everything came out in a timely manner. read more

Yummy selection of food. The stuffed mushrooms will different & delicious. Zucchini planks were average but good. Enjoyed a Digital Bath brew, a west coast pilsner & fig salad with wild caught salmon. Delicious. My honey had Beer Cheese soup that was yummy too. Bustling atmosphere & friendly waitress with just enough attention for us to enjoy ordevours & drinks before ordering our meal. read more

What an awesome experience! Great brews, awesome food and such a fun staff. This is the perfect occasion for a date night out, or a fun stop on your bar crawl. I would recommend a reservation for this highly sought after location, but it's definitely worth the pre planning. Make sure you start with a cheesy app, and get a fabulous pizza for your main. Cannot go wrong with what you order! read more

This was my first time as a local at the Birdtown Brewing. Bobby the manager took amazing care of us from start to finish! They are super lucky to have such a hands on manager like him! The service at the bar was great and the food was 10/10 best chicken wings and pizza in town! Service was 10/10 everyone was very attentive.I was so excited for another local brewery that can be a home away from home, and this is the spot. Definitely will be back! The atmosphere was beautiful inside and out! Love love love ! Congrats on the beautiful space!!! read more

I was wary to try this place out so soon after opening, but they have their act together. Set in an old church, it is large and airy. There are three levels and you can sit in the choir area for a little more privacy. Cute little patio too if you'd like to be outside. Large bar if that's where you like to sit. I tried their signature IPA and it was delish. It is key they have hooked up with Geraci's, because the food menu is fabulous. However, none of that would matter if the service wasn't fabulous. They put together a great crew and Saturday craziness was handled professionally and efficiently. One more thing: great restrooms! read more

Birdtown Brewing - Gorgeous! - Breweries Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

Food is really solid. Loved the tavern style jalepeno honey pizza and the buffalo wings were good. Service was responsive and fast. Interesting way to repurpose an old church! We are local to Birdtown and we are excited for the vibrancy it will add to the neighborhood (as well as good pizza just down the block ). However, it was wayyyy too loud. I can appreciate how difficult it is to manage sound in a hall like that, but I could not hear our server across the table and had to constantly yell. Thankfully we are so close by so my wife and 13 week old could head home early as he was getting fussy from the noise. I saw that there were some sound deadening pads on a few parts of the ceiling, but more are likely needed, and I would be very careful with the music volume till other solutions are found. read more

I have been waiting for years for this place to open as I live fairly close by, but my first experience was very disappointing. I made a reservation two weeks in advance as they've been booked up. The reservation was early, too--5:30pm. When we arrived, we were escorted to the basement bar & seated at a high top with backless metal stools--very uncomfortable. The pizza and beer were good, but the atmosphere--glass block windows and pinball machines--was not at all what I expected. I complained to the hostess and just got, "we're really busy, so we are seating people down here." I emailed the restaurant and heard nothing. I get it--they are new and figuring things out, but if you are looking for ambiance or even a unique experience, I'd wait a while to visit. read more

Do not recommend. It's a brewery and there were 2 of their own beers on tap. How disappointing. We tried to make reservations, but something was up with either the location or open table. Thirty-five minute wait, but half the tables were open. Finally got seated but were told there was a reservation in approx an hour and fifteen minutes so we had to be done by then. Stuffed mushrooms were dry and lacked flavor. Seltzer tasted rotten. It was a peach mango. Burger had no seasoning; asked for it medium and was extremely well done. Chicken parm was ok, not worth $26. Sauce had no seasoning. We were barely done before the reservation that we needed to leave for. Server was great. Attentive. Paid attention to detail. Manager was nice. Remove the over cooked burger. Did ask if we wanted it remade, but we didn't have time because of the reservation after us. Mexican lager was great. We won't be back. read more

No reservation but we walked in and found a bar table. The food was mediocre at best. The Korean bbq wings sauce needs work. The cook was crispy. And the blackberry gin drink was good. Caesar salad croutons were stale at best read more

Enjoyed the Irish Stout and the Midwest IPA. Burger was decent but a little overcooked. Meatball sub was much better, 4 good size meatballs on a delicious soft roll. Great service and vibe downstairs. read more

Went for lunch. I had the Mediterranean Burger. It was overcooked. French fries were nothing special. Service was good. They only serve Pepsi products. Had an ice tea. They have a patio. Street parking. It was very loud. Restroom was clean. Prices were ok. Would only go back if friends wanted to go. read more

The waitress we had was really good. I wish I would've got her name, but we tipped her very well. The food was not great as far as the pizza mine was burnt on the bottom and not a fan of their tomato sauce it taste like canned tomato chunks very bland not a fan Me and my husband both got salads. They were OK very filling a very light dressing and needed more dressing. My husband got the meatballs they use the same sauce they do for the pizza which didn't make them taste very good. Their cheese sticks their little triangle squares, not sticks. They're OK nothing great. One of the men that works there he was an elderly gentleman with a pizza tie. I think he may just work for Gersaci pizza he came over to our table and asked us how her food was so I told him about the pizza and mine was burnt on the bottom and I wasn't a fan of their sauce. He was a very nice and tried to replace my pizza, but I didn't want one. The general manager, who is very very kind said he would take the pizza off the bill which he did that was nice of him. The atmosphere is nothing great I mean it's in a church but it's nothing great it's very very very loud in there. The music speaker was right over our table. I think they should turn the music down. I'm not sure why they have it on so loud me and my husband weren't able to really talk to each other because it was so loud. I probably won't go back there, but I do appreciate all the staff and their kindness read more

The building itself is worth the trip. Great hall type setting, perfect for events and partys. Our server was friendly and attentive even with a full crowd. I tried basement jacuzzi- nice hazy but crisp IPA . 9/10. We tried 3 different pizzas, all were thin crispy and delicious. Great new Anchor spot for the east end of Lakewood read more

Got the meatball app, margherita pizza, and salad with blackened chix. The food was great and they also had bag pipes playing. After dinner we headed to the lower level where kids really liked the games- especially the old school bowling. read more

Birdtown Brewing - bar - Breweries Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

No parking. Limited selection of beers. Running out of food and it was a Saturday afternoon. Just Ok food. Disappointing on all fronts.

The pizza was very good. They actually messed up my order but when informed they more than made up for it. You can tell a lot about an organization when they have to recover from a mistake. The service was fantastic the servers were attentive and friendly. This place is well run and the pizza is very good. It had a great family vibe at the time I was there. It oooks like a great place to bring little ones. The beer was also good. read more

Geraci's pizza. I have devoured Geraci's pizza for 60 years. The sauce is perfect. The crust is perfect. The pepperonis are off the chart perfect and the cheese just drips off the pizza. Birdtown is proud to have Geraci's as a part of their menu. However, the pizza was not so good. It was cooked so long that the cheese was burnt and it tasted ordinary. I am pleading with Geraci's to not allow your reputation for the best Pizza in the United States to be damaged by mediocre pizza. Tell the people at Birdtown to get it right. The atmosphere of the brewery and the menu besides what I just sent is awesome. I will be back. read more

only problem we had we didn't have reservations. We had to wait two hours and then they still had problems with sitting us but make reservations. The pizza is very good so was the pasta. read more

Enjoyed the space, the food and service but the sound is way too loud especially for a Saturday afternoon!!

Loved the food but it was unbearably loud, the music needs to be turned down so you don't have to yell to hear the person sitting next to you. read more

I love it here so much! menu and service are great. the vibes are so good and huge selection of food and drinks! love this crew

Luckily had reservations. Food was excellent. Sophie, our server, was attentive. But the ambiance of the renovated church and outdoor patio couldn't be beat. We will be back! read more
