    Get your beer at the counter, then find a table if you want food. Theres a food truck outside serving chicken, fries, and burgers. You can scan a QR code from your table, and the food truck people will bring it to you. One guy working behind the counter, so be prepared to wait while he pours, but nonetheless, it's a decent place. Pretty clean, a little loud, but it didn't feel crazy, lots of outdoor space (corn hole and Adirondack chairs on the patio.) The punch bowl orange creamsicle is delicious.

    BriarBrothers make so many good beers and seltzers! I like that their seltzer flavors change frequently. My current favorite beer is the curious mind - a dark coconut beer. Although there is no food menu here, Hen House is always posted up outside. This is a great brewery with even better beer! Definitely an underrated brewery in Buffalo.

    We've been here a few time now and I'm finally writing a review. This is a fun relaxing place with an industrial feel and great history. I've tried a few different beers here and they're all been good. The walk down the hall to the restrooms is interesting. That's where you see a lot of history about the building & even a Barber Shop! Great outdoor area with plenty of seating. No food served inside but the Hen House food truck was there on 2 of our visits. They have great sandwiches. Nice place to hang out on a summer evening. 2024-53

    Love coming here with the pups. They always have a fruit sour on tap that I like, not being a regular beer drinker. I highly recommend the Punch Bowl peaches and cream if it's on! Prompt bar service and live music often on weekends. Large screen TVs to take in sporting events and plenty of parking.

    The only non alcoholic option is soda

    I came here with friends for drinks 2 weeks ago and was excited because I hadn't been here yet. There was plenty of parking which I appreciated. I do not drink, so I was pretty disappointed that they didn't have a single N/A option outside of soda. I wouldn't return here due to this reason. I have not been to a brewery or bar in the last few years that DIDN'T have some kind of N/A beer or cocktail available so they really need to remedy this since there are plenty of people who don't drink but still want to hang with their friends at a brewery. I did appreciate the water station available though. They also didn't have their chicken available, so we made due with Molly's woodfired pizza. The pizza was good, but they did forget my friend's pepperoni on her pizza and when she told them they were not at all apologetic and did not offer her money back for the extra $1 she paid for pepperoni. The brewery itself has great vibes but they have a way to go before they establish themselves as a 5 star establishment.

    I've been here a couple times and have such a great experience every time. I met a couple friends who go watch the F1 races every time they're on this past Sunday. Excellent beer choices - I had a couple different IPAs and also did a flight with the hocus pocus sour and the nutty brown ale. Not a bad beer in the place! The staff is great. The food options you can order right at your table from Hen House are fantastic. And just all around really cool atmosphere.

    Again, another great stop at Briar Brothers Brewery. We stopped by for a Yelp event and vendor show. Their beer is always a hit, and we love how they also have available seltzers, vodka drinks, and wines for the non-beer fans or those on a gluten-free diet. 4 pk purchases have $4 off, and that's a great deal. Thanks for showcasing the brewery. It was a wonderful visit and Yelp event.

    What a cool place! I love what they did with the old building and the space itself is super neat incorporating the history of the industrial city with new ideas! We need more of this forward thinking rather than tear down and rebuilding all these ugly vanilla new places. The beer was great and the pizza was absolutely fantastic! We attended as part of a yelp event and it was really fun and everybody was very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to come back!

    Order at the bar

    I love that this grain silo has been repurposed as Briar Brothers Brewery. This place is very unassuming and cozy. I love their Irish Red beer named Molly's Gate. You need to order and pay at the bar, but the line moves quickly. There was a hot chicken food truck outside and the smell was intoxicating. The hot chicken sandwich was delicious and spicy. I love that they host dog rescue events.

    Interesting interior and reuse of an old silo - nice selection of beers, and a friendly staff - worth the visit.

    Great beers, but different batches of beer ever couple of weeks, you are allowed to bring your own food in the place

    This place is exactly what you would expect for a brewery restaurant. They have a beautiful view of…read morethe creek, lots of windows letting in the sunshine, I really like this location for outdoor seating as well. The hostess was a class act, server was great and checked in regularly. The food is good, everything is priced about what I expected except the coffee. They only offer French Pressed coffee for $10 (I was able to have 2.25 cups of coffee). I paid $15 for coffee last time I went so that my friend could have one cup and I had three. Lol I do like the creamer, it was creamy thick, complimented the coffee well. I just couldn't believe I paid that for coffee. Normally, I would only drink 2 cups but drank 3 because I couldn't let it go to waste. Don't judge me, this was for brunch at 11am. Lol I recommend sharing plates. Not because the portion sizes are large or anything but just because everything tastes great, why not sample as much as possible. My friends and I tried a pizza, the AMAZING Mac and Cheese, and another time, I tried the cinnamon roll and eggplant sandwich. The bread was amazing, flavor was good but needed more eggplant. It felt like I was eating more bread than anything hearty inside it. Probably wouldn't order that again next time but it was still good. Their seasoned fries are also very good. The frosting on the cinnamon roll made this treat worth getting, it was a little hard/dry on the outside but I imagine that was just a mistake for that day as maybe it could have came to the table sooner. It was still reallyyyy delicious. I'll be returning again to try some other items but definitely come and bring a date. This is a nice spot for brunch, lunch and dinner, with adult family, friends or a date.

Always there when we needed them and quick to bring back our drinks. Pizza was really, really good. Almost the star of the show if it wasn't for the beer. Had the IPA and the Wit- phenomenal! One of my favorite breweries in Western NY. I can't wait to come back.
