Kenny is very knowledgeable on his beers, and I actively see him thinking about how to make the old filling station a better place, operations, renovations, etc. Lindsay was making some excellent small food for the current coronavirus situation, and slinging those beers as well. I hope to see more good stuff from the place in the future! Go and visit! It's hella laid back, but that means no pressure. A very good addition to Independence.

The atmosphere here is really fun and it'd be great to come back in the evening. I love the random books and games around on tables. I ended up staying all afternoon, having lunch and then 2 ciders... really settled in for the day ;) An employee there, Collin, was extremely friendly and fun to talk to, and helpful to share info about things nearby in Independence as I was just visiting for the day. Would recommend for coffee, working remote, lunch or drinks with friends. Great place to call your own and become a regular.

Stopped into Gilgamesh Brewing while traveling for work and completely forgot it was St. Patrick's…read moreDay. Walked in expecting a normal dinner, immediately realized we had made a tactical error in the best way possible. The place was packed, loud, and had that kind of energy you can't really fake. Solid 10/10 on vibes if you're in the mood for it (and even if you're not, you adjust quickly). Despite being clearly short staffed, the service was impressively good. Not "everything is perfectly on time" good, but "everyone is working hard, communicating, and actually cares" good. They were very upfront and apologetic about the delays, which honestly went a long way. Food came out a bit slower than usual (again, not surprising given the circumstances), but overall I'd put it at a strong 8/10. Nothing overhyped, just well-executed and worth ordering again. I had the classic lager and it was meh. This is very subjective I realize but I'd rate it a 4 or 5/10. All things considered, it could have easily been a frustrating experience walking in on one of the busiest nights of the year, but it wasn't. Credit to the staff for keeping things running and keeping the tone positive. I'd come back, ideally on a slightly less festive evening, but also kind of glad I saw it at full capacity.

Food varies upon the featured food trucks. While there, friends enjoyed sharing a supreme pizza. Amidst the multiple drink options, there were only two canned non-alcoholic brews to choose from. Unfortunate as the climate of sobriety continues to gain popularity. The featured musician was outstanding, but I think the lack of acoustic sound proofing, mood lighting, and loud talkers distracted from his performance. There should be some sort of separation of those there to enjoy the music and others there to visit out of respect for the performer. Additionally, the poster misspelled his name and had no address (I ended up at another location). Small but notable gaffes.

No food is served here, but what's awesome is you can bring in your own food! Or better yet, have it delivered there. Ba's Vietnamese next door walks food over too. There's lots of space for big groups. Want to play a game, put a puzzle together, have some pretzels or popcorn and an awesome drink? This is the place to go.

Denise and Mary were very attentive to all our needs and have wonderful personalities. Especially Denise what an amazing person. Thank you!! The burgers were delicious as were the beer battered fries and the coleslaw is to die for. The home made fry sauce was just as wonderful as the other food. I will be trying the ribs next time I am there. The wide variety of beers and ciders were so extensive everyone will be able to find something they will enjoy.

I ordered the vegan pizza and salad, and both were seriously good -- fresh, flavorful, and actually satisfying. As a vegan, sometimes ordering out feels like negotiating with a menu, but Beachcrest delivered real options that didn't feel like an afterthought. The service was also super fast and genuinely friendly. Everyone was welcoming, the food came out quickly, and the whole place had an easygoing, good-energy vibe. The restaurant itself was really clean too, which always makes a difference. Honestly, if a place can make me excited about both salad and pizza while also getting me fed quickly and kindly, I'm probably becoming a regular.

The coin machines were in a room and honestly, there was not a lot of space. I was constantly being bumped into while trying to play a game. There are a mix of older arcade and newer games. I thought 50 cents for the old school games was a little much but can understand businesses need to make money. There's an ATM where you can withdraw money and there is also a machine where you can exchange cash for quarters. Overall, I would definitely come back here but think that if groups of 10+ are coming, then reservations should be made in order for it to not be so crowded.
