This location is known as the Truck Bar because the bar is built into the skeleton of a 1960s Dodge Pickup. Unfortunately, I didn't notice this detail because there were just so many people in the place. The lines were long, but moved quickly. I don't remember which beer I had, but I enjoyed it. If you're not a beer drinker, they do offer wine and cocktails. The brewery has a full menu with items like burgers, sandwiches, salads, and chicken bites. We shared an order of fries and they were really good. I loved that it came with mayo. We managed to find some seats upstairs. They have large tables which is great for groups. Everyone was friendly and made space for us to sit. They have weekly events like half priced burgers on Tuesdays, trivia on Wednesdays, and tours on Saturdays. There's tons of large screens to watch games and they have pool tables as well. This was a fun spot to visit! I see why it's popular with the locals.

I already knew I wanted a plate of the prawn Gyoza. It was lovely. It came with a ginger dipping sauce. The Gyoza were tender with a nice chew. The prawn paste inside was minced well and tasted great! I would definitely recommend this place !

Safe to say I didn't have high hopes after reading most of the yelp reviews. Good and bad both…read morecommented on lengthy waits for food. Food was quick to come out, service was good and no rude interactions with management. I will however agree that it is expensive for a burger place. We paid $129.50 for 3 people. That's 3 burgers (all with extras added), ze chips (loaded chips) to start, 4 beers and one coke. Beers are all over $10 and the cheapest burger we ordered came to $20, no side of chips included. The venue is quite dark and spacey with marijuana the wall feature of choice. In their defence, as my brother pointed out, the size of the lot would probably have outrageous rent and obviously the ability to sell alcohol would affect their costs. My Chew by Chew burger was delicious. Similar taste to a Whopper with cheese. Two pressed wagyu patties, double cheese and bacon with smoked jalapeños added and health (lettuce and tomato). I loved the heat from the chilli and the melted cheddar tasted sooo good. It had some of the greasy taste from the patties. The coke/beer glasses were interesting. Glass but shaped like a can.

This place is for fatties because they don't even have Diet Coke or Coke Zero. Today was their first lunch service so even though the kitchen was packed and it took an hour to get our food, that's to be expected. I grabbed the Double Double with a bit of health (lettuce & tomato.) The burger is just OK, but the venue is great. The double here is a pretty good size, so if you're hungry this will do the job, just note that fries don't come with the burger. The bun is a very subtle brioche bun, which is good and bad. It holds everything together and didn't fall apart, but I didn't pay much attention to it either. The toppings here are great, the bacon was sweet, savoury, and fatty, hitting the triumvirate of deliciousness, and the zp sauce is just awesome. The "health" is kind of just thrown in there and same goes for the cheeze, with cheeze being pretty good. The beef was the biggest let down for the burger. The patties are big but they're on the dry side and don't taste like much. They also use a much leaner patty than I would like. Some more seasoning and the beef could be much better.
