    Blackberry burger
    Dea F.

    Kind of stumbled upon this place, kind of not. I had seen it on my searches before but just hadn't had the chance to venture over to try them. My husband and I were looking for a place that was dog-friendly and had good drinks and food. Well well well, winner winner chicken dinner! When walking in, you're greeted by a friendly host or hostess. They saw our pup and showed us to the patio. It was a nice day so the temperature was wonderful and they even had dog bowls of water sitting out. The patio had TVs but we're not into football and just found something to watch on our phone. The waiter was phenomenal and very attentive but not overbearing. He made suggestions about the drink menu and was considerate to the fact that I drink virgin drinks only. The patio was relatively enclosed with screens to keep flies away. Regarding the food, it's an easy menu with not too many options. This keeps ticket times down and food comes out quick and hot. I had a quesadilla and my husband had the blackberry burger. It was absolutely delicious! The waiter even brought out a piece of bacon for our dog on a little platter. It really is the little things. We will definitely be back!

    This place is fabulous. Located by the movie theater, it's easy to find and there is plenty of parking. There are lots of TVs and lots and LOTS of beer! Seriously, there are probably 100 on tap. I'm from out of state but I've come here at least twice and I've enjoyed it both times. There have been 5 of us each time and they have several tables that would accommodate us. I have not sat outside yet but I bet it's absolutely beautiful when it's nice outside. The serves have been friendly and helpful. We all get a burger and either a flight or a beer. This time we went on a Sunday and there were drink and appetizer specials. We got the fried pickles with the jalapeno dill sauce and I highly recommend them. I really like chocolate stouts, blonde ales, and some ciders. This most recent time I got two that I really enjoyed...KBS Hazelnut Fudge (straight up like drinking Nutella...but be careful, it's 12%!) and Original Sin Black Widow. I was thrilled to find both of these at the Total Wine in my town, 2 states away. The burgers and sides are really good. My mom loves that she is able to substitute any burger with a garden burger. And my sister is a huge fan of their onion rings. The interior is really cool with awesome art work and the taps are a display of their own. It does have a tendency to get a little loud, but I think it's worth it. If I lived locally, this would be my go to spot.

    Thanks Nikki for the great service. Really appreciate u with the long drive ahead. You served us the best draft beers....they must have 100 on tap! And the best food and seriously buy the Brussel sprouts. I should've bought some for the drive. lol. It's was like $50 for a couple beers and burgers. Worth it! Go. You will miss out! Thanks again Nikki. See u again soon.

    Rise and grind burger

    The food was amazing. I had the rise and grind burger. I just wish I had asked for the egg to by runny because I think it would've been better that way. Our server was so sweet. She apologized for the wait which really wasn't bad especially since all the food is cooked to order. The scenery was nice.

    First time coming to WR for lunch! A great spot to meet my girls for lunch before hitting up the movies to watch Dune Part TWO We had Nikki has our server so amazing! Great beer recommendations Loved the nachos, very hearty with the chicken bites in them. I had the pimento burger, it was bigger than the plate and I'm a messy eater so that wasn't helpful Loved the flavors but wished I had a bigger plate and more napkins and maybe the wet wipes like taco Mac. Loved the 5oz beer options to try all the craft beer selections! Wish I had time to try more or did a flight to start. Do they have paddles to do that? And I feel like I needed some paper to write down the ones I wanted to try. Overall a great girls lunch out!

    Hamburger and fries

    Very fun and friendly place! Bathrooms and parking easy to get to! Service was so amazing! Even have us suggestions of things to do and was super on top of things. We all drink lots of water so that was awesome. These skinny margaritas were INCREDIBLE The place is spacious and very welcoming! Lots of locals had no idea of this place-apparently it used to be a different name so that's what people know it as. It is definitely a hidden secret!!! Literally everything was incredible!

    Stopped by for dinner on one of their Trivia Tuesdays. Inside was a bit full and we had a group of 6 so we sat in the covered outdoor section. Service was good, we were served drinks right away and did were given timely refills. The food was delicious. I ordered a Blackberry BBQ burger and tried one if the Blackberry BBQ wings, the overall taste of the sauce wasn't overpowering so if you have mild tastes its safe to try. Overall, I would come here again. Great options and a LOT of beer on tap to choose from.

    Stopped in to watch some of the March Madness games and have dinner. We were instantly greeted by the hostess and given a table. They have an incredible amount of beers on tap scrolling by on a screen or you can scan a QR code to browse through them easier. Our server was friendly and our food/drinks arrived in a timely manner. We started with a beer and cocktail before ordering the nachos. They were actually pretty good and the portion size was perfect for 2 of us to share and still save room for a meal. For my dinner, I went with the Hawaiian Burger with Onion Rings. I really liked the onion rings and the burger had great flavor. My only complaint was the quality of the bun. It seemed to just crumble and fall apart which made it extremely messy and hard to eat. Our other complaint (along with other guests) was that the dining room/bar was so loud. Not loud with music but the room is just a loud room from people talking and not having anything to soften the noise. We saw 2 other groups request to move to the outdoor patio because of the noise. Overall, impressive drink list and slightly above average food. Definitely higher quality than a typical bar menu.

    This place has very quickly become our favorite place to have wings. We always get a flight of beer to sample what's on tap and we have found a few new favorites we would have never tried before. We have not had to wait for a table yet and the service is always good. The decor is typical bar and pub and clean. Appetizers- we always get the fried green beans and fried pickles. 5/5 highly recommend the jalapeño ranch dipping sauce for both. Yum. My son always gets the rise and grind burger with fries. He says it is one of the best burgers he has ever had and rates it 4.5/5 My husband and I get wings and have sampled a few different flavors. Our hands down favorite are the Korean BBQ wings. 5/5

    I feel like, when it comes to WR, this spot is a solid cut above the rest. To start with, they have a fantastic beer/cider menu that will pretty much have something for everyone. I was able to find plenty of beers I'd never tried before and gave them a go. They even have different sizes depending on how much you want. The food menu is fairly limited in that, they don't have a ton of variety (mostly burgers and wings). But what they have they do well. And I'm perfectly fine with that. I've had both the burgers and wings and quite like both. I also went with the Brussel sprouts appetizer this past time and it was solid. Last, the environment and service are both great. My servers have been knowledgeable, helpful and more than patient with me and my questions. There are also plenty of TVs in the event you want to watch a game. I'd highly recommend checking out Black Barley if you're in the mood for some craft beer, wings and want to catch a game. I'll certainly be back.

    So I came here to grab a beer and a snack. The beer selection is great, but you have to scan a QR code and read the online guide on your phone. It's... not that much more convenient than just having a menu, although I can see why it allows changing out beers on tap more often. Beer selection was great, but service was a bit slow. I got two pretzels, and they were decent, above average pretzels. So in comparison to my last review, I'll bump it up by one star, but it's still only good for the food. But their beer selection really shines.

    While in Perry, GA... We stopped in to Black Barley for a cold one & lunch. Met Bartender, Bailey. Really a nice, friendly guy. We order some beers and smoked wings. Delicious. Then, Bailey started helping me get to my second beer... not liking IPA's or Sours . They have a nice selection and Bailey introduced a couple to me that I actually liked. He was right. What a great way to spend the afternoon. A short distance away was the Patriot Water tower...... very cool that this City has this on display.

    Stopped in for dinner after work midweek. Sat at the bar which felt like being in a little piece of…read morehistory with its polished wood and dim lighting. Bar tender was funny, friendly and accommodating. Burger was on point and the onion rings fire. Ordered the James Brown's Black & Blue which was fantastic paired with Horse's Neck.

    Wasn't impressed at all for being open for 50 years! I ordered the Cobb salad with what I assumed…read morewould be blacked salmon because that's how it shows on the menu on their website. Got the salad & it was a pretty underdone piece of salmon after asking for it well done. Asked the waiter why it wasn't blackened (out of curiosity) still ate it & called it good & told me we had to ask for it blackened. It was a very basic boring salad with a frozen piece of salmon for $20. My husband ordered a burger & fries. The burger was really good & he got goat cheese & bacon on it. The fries on the other hand were not it. Bummer because they are supposedly hand cut. They were drenched in oil. Like to the point that you couldn't even eat a few without feeling awful. They were soggy & heavy. Think homemade fries but in a super old fryer with lots of crisco. Overall very underwhelming for a place with such high reviews. Won't be back! Gotta step up it up if you guys plan to stay in business for another 50 years!
