Five Four Bar & Grill has a large U shaped bar, stage for live bands, pool tables, booth seating,…read moretable seating and an area to have a catered event in a private room. They can hold 20-500 people for private events according to their website. The inside is dark and could use a bit of a refresh, but I wouldn't say it's close to the level of dive. It's certainly on the larger side compared to most bars in the area. The staff has always been nice, but service can get slow when the crowd size grows. Just the nature of things. Food wise the menu has a typical mix of pub grub - apps, soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers and several entrees. A friend was eating their jumbo Buffalo Shrimp off the starter menu and raved about them. I stuck to a Cheesesteak which was average but a deal at $9.50 -- the chopped steak was decent, cheese was good just needed a bit more. Hot peppers gave it some kick and the long roll was fresh. Their beer menu has around a dozen beers on tap. They dabble in more mainstream big beer/craft beer like your Goose Island IPA's/Lagunitas IPA, but do have a decent show of locals like Yards, Victory, Troegs and Weyerbacher. Bourbon wise I had a Knob Creek neat which was average price wise. The pour was on the generous side. Each time I've been here the crowds have been friendly and having a good time. The band we listened to was great and the sound was crisp. Five Four is a family friendly grill during the day and a fun place for adults later at night. Thanks guys!

Spacious interior with plenty of tables as well as seats at the bar. We sat at the bar, and the bartender (Chrissy) was super friendly and also a fellow teacher! The beer was good with one standout - the Kalapa which is a coconut milk stout on nitro which was absolutely delicious. I'm a big fan of German beers and Germany in general, so it was also nice to see they had quite a few German style beers on tap as well. We live an hour away so I can't say we'll be back anytime soon, but it was a very nice place to spend a few hours and can definitely recommend it to other beer lovers.

Unfortunately the planned food truck had an issue so food was limited. You can bring your own food, door dash or order delivery as options as well. Bar service was great and you can order in online and have it brought to the table. They have a lot of in-house brewed beer options. I was also surprised to see so many unique mocktails. If you headed over on a night with trivia arrive early. The parking lot is small and once it fills up there isn't anywhere else to park. They do offer a significant discount on your first drink if you uber over because of this issue which is a nice spin.

I walked into Broad Street Brewing several weeks ago to check out the scene and grab some take-out…read morebeer after a visit to Sal's. I was disappointed to see they only had two of their flagship beers for takeout (Hey Yo NE IPA and Independence Lager) and no crowler canning machine for their tap list. They will fill your personal growler and the prices for their 16oz four packs were fair. $10 for their lager and $14 for their Hey Yo NE IPA. There are a lot of other breweries charging much higher prices and/or you're paying a flat amount for beers no matter what the style (which is ridiculous) .... I can understand a higher retail if it's a limited release or higher end brew. I made it a point to return and sit down inside the brewery to take it all in. My life plans landed me there on a Sunday, unfortunately Sal's next door is closed on Sundays, so a food truck parked outside or Durham Deli across the street had to do. The layout on the inside is inviting: picnic tables or bar seating are your options. They have board games to test your mind or keep your kids occupied and there were several TV's playing NFL games. The bartender was nice and a good conversation. He was very into their beers and gave great insight into: when they were tapped, what was coming down the pike and info/ingredients of current tapped brews. I didn't see much in the way of a menu with descriptions of each beer, but then again I didn't ask. I just looked at the tap list on their menu boards which noted the tap number (16 total), name of the beer, style, abv, price and the ounces of the pour. In my opinion the variety of beer styles they had would give any beer drinker several options to try. I sampled a few different styles: Belgian IPA 7%, Winter Warmer 9.4% and their American Pilsner 5.8%. I found them to be average to slightly above average and served in proper glassware. You can get flights, a single 5oz pour or in a glass that ranged from 10-20 ounce pours. The prices were between $5-$7 for a 10-20 oz. pour. The to-go cooler had four of their brews this time and also a second cooler had local Jericho Mountain Beef. You can buy several different styles of vacuum sealed meats that looked delicious. They also serve wine, seltzers and non-alcoholic beverages. The bathrooms were pretty big and clean. They welcomed a pretty big family with several kids so I'd say your safe to bring the fam!! I'm a fan of Broad Street Brewing, I think their prices are more than fair, the staff was nice, their beers are average to above average and true to the style (from what I've tried) and the building itself was clean, open and inviting. I enjoyed my experience there and will return (preferably during Sal's business hours!). Thanks guys!

The place was insanely packed, and unfortunately, our experience went downhill pretty quickly. The bar in front of us was incredibly sticky from the previous customers and was never wiped down. When we asked the bartender if he could wipe it, the horrible look he gave us made it seem like we were asking for something completely unreasonable. That same obnoxious bartender kept calling the guys "dawg," which got annoying really fast. Another customer, who I believe was from Rider, was complaining about horrible flying insects. GROSS Then I witnessed the same bartender making my drink using vodka from the well instead of the specific brand I requested. Curious to discover if I was upcharged!. When I politely told him it wasn't what I ordered and his response was basically that I could "go somewhere else." Seriously?? I was absolutely appalled especially after what had already been a very emotional and somber day for me. I am by no means boujee. My girlfriend suggested asking the other bartender who was huffed and puffed throughout our entire experience to remake my drink, but he was absolutely drenched in sweat, which honestly made us uncomfortable ordering anything else. At that point, we took the bartender's excellent advice -- we went somewhere else. Terrible customer service and some serious cleanliness concerns. Definitely won't be rushing back.
