    Rampage, the classic three-person game reimagined as a two-person experience, was a big hit with our little ones. The art was awesome, too!

    I spotted the sign for Four City Brewery Co. from the train and made a note to myself to check it out. I'm so glad I did because we stopped here on a Sunday after dropping off our oldest kid at camp, and was so pleasantly surprised to find a large, airy, beautiful space with an amazing variety of beers for pretty much every beer aficionado out there. Our two kids played retro video games on the small arcade cabinet and enjoyed the visit maybe more than the grownups. Granted, it wasn't crowded, so it might be different at other times. The artwork in the walls was such a superb touch and really made it feel like a local resource The bartender was so great to talk to and exhibited a solid understanding of the available brews on tap. Unfortunately, due to New Jersey's wrong-headed and protectionist prohibition on breweries serving food, there was only a small selection of snacks to choose from. (Takis rule!) Of course, that's not the brewery's fault, so the five-star rating remains. Here's hoping the laws evolve to better serve people. (Don't get me started on the lack of alcohol sales in delis.)

    Second time here and really enjoyed the beers and atmosphere! Parking can be difficult but on the weekends you can park at the train station for free. Friendly staff, chill atmosphere, & good beers- exactly what it should be at a brewery!

    I love coming to this local brewery! The owners are usually there and are so friendly. They even give you samples of the beer so you can see if you like it before ordering. They also have some really fun events here every week. From trivia night to yoga classes, there is a lot going on. Recently I came for a live music night with a band performing covers of famous songs. It was fun! I definitely recommend checking this place out. The beers rotate so you can always find something new to try each time you come.

    Great local brewery with an excellent selection of beers on tap and also canned for takeout. Large space with plenty of seating so you can stay and enjoy a flight or two and bring in your own food from the local restaurants. I enjoyed their pilsner style beer as well as their chocolate stout. The owners were very friendly and showed us around the brew area and gave us some background on how they started the business. \ Definitely a great spot in the Oranges for some really well made beer and generous hospitality.

    Small space, but has a dart board and corn hole! Bring your own food. High top tables without seat backs (a bit uncomfortable after awhile).

    I was excited to find this black-owned brewery in orange new jersey. They have some really amazing black art displayed all around which was very inviting. The beer was really good and the staff was inviting and friendly. However the music was a real miss for me. Parking was also a little hard, but not impossible.

    I went here on a Thursday Trivia night and I had an awesome time! The vibe is so fun. They have wonderful selection of tap beers and the people behind the bar are so helpful. Awesome service! I've been here 3 times, will definitely be back for more! They also have to go cans of tap beers!

    Love the ambiance of this place. Have to mention they by far have the cleanest bathrooms for a brewery. Parking was limited & difficult to get to because of construction. Service was friendly but beer was just mediocre.

    Four City Brewing has excellent beer. Looking through my activity feed on yelp, it's the best new brewery I've visited in maybe a year. Their beers all have a very unique bold lively flavors. At a lot of breweries, each type of beer you order just tastes the same. Not here. Each one had an original recipe. Four City is the 111th brewery that I have visited in New Jersey alone. They are a black owned brewery. The atmosphere is new and nice. I also thought that they really appreciated my business and greeted me with open arms, which I find extremely important. Nothing turns me off more than a brewery that couldn't care less whether I am patronizing them. Not here. I would definitely see this place as a local hang out. Although they are located in an urban area, they are trying to give the neighborhood a new business in an innovative products. You can also come by train because the train station is right there. It's also a relatively central location, too, because it's close to the parkway and I-280. They sell cans, and you should try them for home consumption. Since there have a relatively central location, I will be stopping there again when I'm in the area to pick up cans.

    Went to the bend and brew class and it was amazing! So much fun. I ordered three flights and decided to try all twelve beers and could not complain about a single one! The owners were super friendly, welcoming, and delightful! The brew tour was very educational as well.

    Great Beer Louis knows his stuff when suggesting the right beer for your pallet.  This is definitely my new Wednesday spot!

    Great place Louis definitely knows his beers. I told him what I liked and he nailed each one. Definitely my new Wednesday spot! Highly recommend

    Flights $12

    Fall out of the train and into the warm embrace of Four City brewing, that's the four cities of Orange, West Orange, South Orange & East Orange. But never mind the geography, when we visited they had 12 varieties on tap. Flights $12. Pour sizes 5, 9 and 13 ounces, but surprisingly no pints on the menu. I was a big fan of their stout and cream ale, the dark wheat ale was very tasty too. Kudos to the brewmaster for making a lager but their Gold Rhein, in honor of the long-lost Rheingold brewery, was forgettable. New-new in 2019, this 7 barrel brewery offers an immaculate tasting room with eclectic music playing and respectable art on the walls, this is not a miserable anonymous industrial space way out in the country like so many others lol. Walk a block up to Main Street to get a little food and bring it back, they're happy to let you drink their fine beer with outside food. Very civilized, but I was surprised how few people were enjoying these fine beers on the Sunday when we visited. Take the trip to Orange!

    They've shut down, the building is for lease. Too bad, with all the new apartments coming I guess they were too early to the game.

Not sure why the restaurant isn't busier because the good was very good. We split a cauliflower fritters appetizer, which was tasty and hot.

The meat was fresh and good. A big step above most burgers plus generous portions of sauteed onions and mushrooms along with melted cheeses. When I get my hamburger craving, I know where I'm going. The Butter Chicken Tacos were an unusual option. Based on Indian Butter Chicken, the national dish of UK along with Chicken Marsala, it was served in a naan with a side of rice. Really very flavorful and creative. The chopped salmon burger with mayo also comes with cheese, which was unexpected, but worked well. Service was prompt and friendly. The waitress and another wait staff person even moved furniture around looking for my grandson's red crayon. (He was sitting on it). Worth a visit even if you don't go have a craft bar or cocktail.
