I was surprised to see it already packed at 4:00 on a weekday, but I soon found out why. They have a great selection of drinks, food and the staff was wonderful. Their food menu has appetizers, entrees and pizzas. It was nice because there was a variety of price options and both smaller and larger portion options. I ordered one of the flatbreads and it was delicious! Packed with flavor, bread not soggy and loaded with ingredients. I sampled a few beers and settled on their seasonal brew (I'm not remembering the name). It was happy hour, so I was pleasantly surprised that my beer was $1 off from the price on the menu board. The inside feels cozy and welcoming. I really enjoyed the decor. I was told their wings are great and they have wing specials, so I'm sure I'll come back to try their wings!

The second time, we walked in and the place stunk, not like the stink that breweries always get but like dirty taps and sewage. The menu was very expensive ($13 for a hot dog). And even though there were maybe 7 people there, we couldn't seem to get the bartenders attention. Eventually we just left, but I'm really disappointed. We used to love this bar.

For this brewery we had two different types of beers. Both very solid and good. The first beer was the Streetlight Stars. This beer was a Cream Ale which I do really enjoy when I can get a hold of one. Flavor highlights in this beer are creamy, a hint of sweet corn, crisp and a clean finish. It's also a nice light bodied beer. The other beer was the Midnight Blue which is a porter. This was good too with it's flavor characteristics of Cocoa, Malty, Smokiness and a dry finish. It's a nice, dark beer to have. So definitely a good and promising start with this brewery with the two beers we had!

Maybe a few people at the bar and a couple of tables. We ordered nachos, burger, and a gyro. We waited over nearly 90 minutes for food. Every time we asked we were told the nacho cheese needed to be heated up. Funny that when the food arrived, the cheese on nachos was cold? The server/owner/whoever didn't seem concerned when I mentioned the time. If you want to have a beer, fine. If you have any desire to get your moneys worth buying any type of food, skip it. There are so many better options on Butler St. that serve the same beer with better service and food and/or food trucks who will be mindful of your order. Sad.

The nachos were good, a bit pricey, but good. We didn't love the beer cheese so I wouldn't start with this again. Their menu has a lot so no concerns. We decided to get their Yinser Cheesesteak and I would get it again. It was big, the cheesesteak was very good (slightly on the sweet side). The only way to improve this meal is grill the bun but that is preference. We got here and no one was here but by the time we left there was 20 or more. The bartender was great: super friendly and he was a great guide. The place was slightly loud in the main room but they have a lot of space to spread out; there are other areas you can go to for large groups or groups that want a quieter environment. The key...I WILL BE HERE AGAIN.

My girl friends and I came after four years of me wanting to come here. I love Gravel Grinder and live close to an OTB so heard of Dancing Gnome from that. Finally made our way there and well, make sure you do not bring young kids. My friend had an 18 month old with us and as she was BUYING a beer from them, the guy who worked there asked if she "could keep the screaming to a minimum." An eighteen month old!!! And Mother's Day is tomorrow, nice. He said that they had to draw a line somewhere and he wasn't kidding. The 18 month old was not running around screaming crying all day. We were outside having the kids play and when my friend was buying a beer he got a bit fussy and was told to keep it to a minimum. Needless to say, we will NOT be coming back. If you have small children, I would not suggest this place. Super disappointing. I've always hyped their beer and place up and now I can't support it. We ended up going to Grist House and it was a WAY better vibe and WAY busier...I wonder why. I should have known when their sign said no dogs allowed.

I tend towards lighter beers, and they had several great options for me (don't worry, there are plenty of darker beers and higher-alcohol-percentage brews; I just didn't order them). There are three or four bars, along with a stage and places for food trucks. The bars are all linked, so you can open a tab at one and it'll be available at the others as well. Super friendly service. I was there on a Saturday afternoon and the place was well-staffed with very cool employees. The atmosphere is nice, too, and I appreciated the poster on one wall explaining the meaning of "Grist House". You can bring dogs too! Some very nice dogs were present on this particular Saturday. Next time I'm coming through this way, I will definitely be stopping by again. * Note: it's a brewery, of course, but they do offer some wines and their own cocktail concoctions.
