    Living in the Twin Cities, I don't usually come to my hometown of Hartford with high expectations…read moreof good spots. In what seems like a myriad of townie bars, Brewed Omen is a diamond in the rough! I'm so glad that downtown Hartford is upgrading with places like this! As you descend the entry stairs, you are greeted with a glowing red sign that marks the spot and sets the classy, yet devilish theme of the brewpub. The space itself was cozy, yet cool with exposed brick and ambiant finishes. Plenty of different style seating...couches, high tops, a patio, and bartop. Service was great during our entire stay! The beer menu was very diverse, and after chatting with the bartender, is constantly changing! In a smalltown world of Bud Light and Miller Lite, I was excited to find some unique craft beers! Priced appropriately as well! We didn't get any food but the pretzel looked yummy and massive! We can't wait to make this a regular spot on our few trips home to see family each year!

    We were here on a busy Saturday and they were extremely understaffed for the crowd. It took over an…read morehour for our food to arrive, and when it did, we had to wait a while longer for spoons for our soup. The food was good though. I had a Thai chicken soup and the Hartford Hot sandwich, which were both really good. The kids got some kind of pizza with brisket on it that was really good, and definitely enough for the two of them to share. They have a great patio on the river, so I would definitely love to check this place out next time we're in town and there's not an event going on.

    Apparently I didn't leave a review for Nuckleheadz after the one other time I had dinner there, so…read moreI had to leave one this time. I called in an order to go for a four piece cod dinner with seasoned waffle fries and cheese curds as an appetizer. Unlike so many other restaurants that serve crappy cornmeal breaded cheese curds that don't get crunchy and retain too much grease, the cheese curds at Nuckleheadz are true breaded cheese curds that get perfectly crunchy. I wish every every restaurant would serve the right kind like Nuckleheadz does, but I guess that's one of the things that makes Nuckleheadz special. Speaking of special, I LOVE it when the breading on fish has herbs and/or spices mixed in. It just gives the fish a little something extra. The herbs that Nuckleheadz puts in the batter they use on their cod (maybe their other fish too, I'm not sure) are phenomenal. I'm not usually big on cod, but I'm big on their cod because of it. Seasoned waffle fries are the king of all fries so that was a no-brainer. The weekly specials they post on social media often intrigue me and the hangover hash appetizer sounds fantastic (tater tots covered with bacon, nacho cheese, shredded cheese, and fried eggs), so I look forward to ordering that the next time I dine-in on a day that isn't Friday and I can't wait to get the fish fry again on a Friday with the best cheese curds around.

The bar/restaurant is located in the back of the house in what could be considered the basement. Still, this place is not divy. The beautiful wood interior makes this place feel very warm and cozy. There is a bar area with high top tables and two dining areas with booths and tables, as well as an enclosed outside patio area. When we went, they had a nice fire going in their outdoor fire pit, which made for a nice place to gather and enjoy the night air. We did not have any food from here, only cocktails, but the bar service was fairly quick, and the drinks were good.

Tyler's service was fast accurate and very professional. I had the ribs and my partner had the chicken tenders. Just as I tell people by word of mouth, "If you wand really good ribs that come off the bone nicely, you just have to try the ribs here at the Mineshaft." Once again, as always, an extremely satisfying visit to the Mineshaft. A fantastic place to eat. Incessant Research (Investigative Research & Journalism. Not for hire.)

I found this rule rather obnoxious. My group and I opted for the buffet which I did end up regretting. The food just was not good. I should have ordered off the menu. I would not return for the buffet. The price was good though! And it's definitely a family friendly place. Our server was nice. The customers were meh; my friends and I attempted to take pics and kept getting photobombed by a gross older man. The arcade upstairs is extremely loud, but like I said before, totally cool for children. Mineshaft is not my jam but it might be yours! They seem to do a lot there.

    Was looking for a locally owned place for food and beverages after a wonderful round of golf at…read moreWashington County so asked the pro shop staff for their recommendations. Luckily for us they recommended Bilda's Friess Lake Pub. What an awesome place. Small, friendly, with a large selection of beers to choose from, and our food was outstanding. Were immediately told by other customers (obviously regulars) that we had to have the smoked wings. Great call. They were perfect. Very casual place. Nothing fancy but very comfortable. Have a great outside area also where they have bands and comfortably host large groups (a large group of local teachers were there celebrating the last day of school). Highly recommend

    Stopped in for another meal…read more Food: The food was excellent. They have eleven different sliders, so we ordered four different ones, along with a side of the haystack onion rings. Service: There was an issue with our order. Apparently, it did not "print" back in the kitchen. We ended up waiting an additional 20 minutes before someone figured out what had happened. They acknowledged the mistake, apologized, and comped our drinks. Atmosphere: They now have outdoor entertainment every evening, and there is plenty of seating to choose from. The traffic around the roundabout intersection can get noisy, but I think they simply turn up the volume to compensate. A good spot for smoked meats and other sandwiches.

    We just finished with our party of 12 for a Sunday Brunch…read more Amazing selection of breakfast foods and dinner foods. Most of our guests were from out of town and thoroughly enjoyed not only the selection but the quality. Excellent selection of breakfast items, fresh fruits and freshly cooked vegetables that were not soggy and gross. Good chicken, fish, prime rib and more. Of course a large selection of desserts too. Seniors are offered a discount which was a pleasant surprise. All in all a great experience!

    Second time here in the last couple of months…read more Food: As much as I love the history of this place, the beautiful woods surrounding it, and the charm of the building, I have been very disappointed by the quality of the food. Unfortunately, this second dinner was even worse than the first. The rice was undercooked, the short ribs were dry, and the scallops were gritty. I realize that, for some people, the Buy One, Get One promotion is a big draw. However, I suspect that the menu prices are inflated to offset the BOGO savings, so it doesn't end up being much of an actual benefit. My wish is that they would focus on improving the quality and consistency of the food and charge prices that appropriately cover their costs while still allowing them to make a profit. I don't think we'll be coming back anytime soon, which is sad because there is so much to like about the location and atmosphere.
