Fun, chill, and lively vibes! We attended a friend's 40th birthday party here and enjoyed the live music. The bar was packed and filled with smiles across the room. Wow was their frozen margarita strong and delicious! I was pleasantly surprised! Forgot to take pics! read more

My family and I decided to try Guitars and Growlers. We parked in the parking lot, walked in, and checked out the space. It's a cool restaurant that has a lot of seating, and cool decor with Guitars displayed on the wall and a small stage for performers. We walked up to where you order. It was counter service and the guy that took our order was laid back. We paid, he gave us a number and then we chose a place to sit and waited for our food. We ordered several items to share. We started off with a charcuterie board that had meats, cheeses, nuts, fruit, and toasted bread. It was really good. The bread was able to hold the ingredients and was nice and crispy but not overly crispy. The meats were good and the different cheeses were flavorful with different textures. The fruit was fresh and the nuts were a nice crunchy addition. Very yummy start. We also shared the Tejas Nachos with Brisket. The Nachos come with tortilla chips covered in cheese, queso, jalapenos, tomatoes, and crema. They were okay. The Brisket was plentiful. There was a lot of cheese and queso spread out all over the nachos. It was a little too much. The chips got soggier the closer you got to the bottom of the pile. Our last shared item was the ZZ Top BBQ Flatbread. It was okay. It came with an overabundance of cheese. It also came with jalapenos, BBQ sauce, and we ordered it with Chicken. It was okay. The cheese was gooey but overwhelming. The jalapenos added a spicy flavor and the BBQ sauce was tasty. Overall the restaurant has a cool atmosphere with good service. The counter service, ordering and paying process was quick and easy. Everytime someone brought our food to us they were friendly. The food was okay and literally very cheesy. read more

Went for the food and was better than average. Beer 10 out of 10. Service was very good. Music was a lot of fun. Look forward to going again. read more

What a great spot around the neighborhood. I've been meaning to visit for a couple of years now and on this beautiful Saturday evening my wife and I came in for a beer and ended up having a few. Cool vibe and it was to bad we had to leave before the band came on stage. You order at the bar and they bring the beer to you. Can't wait to visit again soon. read more

Let me start out by saying, my husband and I have been coming to this location for over 4 years. We love trying new beers/ciders and the chill vibe. The food here is wonderful and most recently we tried their "spread". We got the large one and was a little disappointed in the amount of mustard, jalapeño jelly, and meets/cheeses in comparison to the mass amount of bread. Almost felt like a bread tray with a few extra things thrown on. We've gotten the pizza and nachos before which were all delicious and perfectly portioned out. My second complaint was the service. The bartender seemed genuinely annoyed that we were ordering, then even more annoyed when we sat at the bar. We had to flag him down after several minutes each time our glasses were empty, and...... we said thank you each time and were ignored. It may be silly but even one acknowledgement of our thanks would have gone a long way. We love this place, we truly do.. but the service we received most recently definitely made us think twice about returning soon. read more

Stopped by Guitars & Growlers this past Tuesday with a group of friends to participate in weekly trivia! We had a great time chowing down on the food and enjoying the vibes. The thanksgiving sandwich I got was on the blander side but I really enjoyed the jalapeño soup and the cold cut Italian sub that my husband ordered. Also liked the cider I got as a drink. We'll probably be back again next year to try out Tuesday night trivia again, it was a blast! read more

I put in an order on brewery QR code. I went to pick it up fifteen minutes later as the order email told me. I was then told directly by this food truck that I needed to wait for a text message. The text never came. I then went an hour after the order to make sure it was canceled. They initially lied and said th had texted me after forgetting they had specifically talked to me in person and told me it wasn't ready. Knowing they were wrong, I was told that they would call management and get the order canceled. Hours later, it has not been canceled. This entire process feels like a scam. One lie covered up by another and now I have to report this to my credit card to get a refund. Absolutely awful experience. Would never order from them again. read more

Food: kind of expected an actual kitchen. Still good, just bar food. Taps are great - had some great local gems Service was great, friendly staff Vibe on point. read more

Great beers on tap, plus wine. Great flatbreads and other good bar food. They have a variety of live events too, so you can come out and meet new people. Trivia night, open mic music, etc. read more

Beer. The staff's performance is stellar. Patience, attention to every customer, and they can guide every palate from the IPA and Stout expert, to the mild and simple lager newcomer. Likewise, they make good snacks and food and will accommodate special orders and tastes. The environment is relaxed but tidy, varied but predictable. Live music, trivia, and even bingo? It's a great place. They even serve cocktails! read more

So as you know Dallas had yet their annual February freeze. On Thursday when we were clear to safely travel we headed over for a beer and lunch combo. For an appetizer, we ordered the pretzel and beer cheese for $7.99 and it was awesome. The bread was warm and soft and the creamy beer cheese was such a great dipping added on. These pretzels are salted however the salt is easy to take off if you are not happy with that kind of pretzel. I ordered the cup of creamy jalapeño soup for $3.99 and oh man I would have gotten the bowl if I wasn't already sipping on a beer and had some bread to keep me full. The creaminess is there so it's filling. The crackers seem to be coated in olive oil and have some added flavor with spices which were better than if they had just given a plain Saltine cracker. The entree of choice was a lunch combo $9.00 Tripping Turkey & Cheese: turkey, bacon, pepper jack, spring mix pesto/ sourdough, and for the side the cup of cowboy beer chili. For the sandwich, the nice touch was the pesto sauce. My favorite chili is from Wendy's there version was Spicer and had more flavor, it also contains beans!! Loved their beer flight just wish it had labels so that when it came to ordering a full beer ot would have been easier to recall however, the flight board is way cool! read more

Someone had recommended we try this place out, and we're glad we did. The atmosphere is on the small, cozy side and it is a bit eclectic. They offer counter service for both food no beverages. The bartender/server was great at helping us navigate things and finalize what we ordered. The place had several smaller groups of people. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and this wasn't a night where they had live music. We started with the small charcuterie board. We enjoyed all of the meats, cheeses and other items on the spread. My husband went with the G&G TX Fav sub that features a variety of meats and toppings. My husband had no problems finishing it all. I went with the Cuban and it was tasty as well. We look forward to our next visit to enjoy the environment when they have live music to enjoy as well. read more

We try to stop in here when we are on this side of town. They have a tap wall with nice options, including some wine options on tap. They have a nice selection of sandwiches, salads, and flatbreads. The space is cute and you might have guessed, music themed! They also do events such as music bingo and they have live music stage. It's a great place to check out! read more

We only went for a couple drinks and maybe it was because of the drink choices we chose but the beers were OK. It's a nofe environment kind of smaller than I thought and it looks like there's live music things like that going on. the food looked really good so we will definitely make it back. Maybe just try different beer. read more

Visited this bar today with a friend to check out their Tuesday Trivia Night! They had a 4th of July theme with it being the week of the holiday, and it was lots of fun. Heads up: They have wine and beers but no liquors, so no cocktails. All food and drink orders are made at the bar, and food is bussed to you. I had a bbq flatbread that tasted good, although the flatbread was over done so I picked around the crust. The trivia was 2hrs that went by fast! Nice space, but it was freezing cold in there. Overall an a-ok time, and I'd come back for trivia read more

I love this place. Wait staff super nice and friendly. Lots of different beer to try and they have wine too!! I'm so happy I live near G&G. I try and go at least once a week. Plus, my neighbor sings there on occasion. read more

I stop by here with a group on Tuesdays at this location for Trivia Nights. They always have a great selection of beers and food. Some of our go-to items include Cash's Chicken Pesto Flatbread Pizza and Johnny Winter Flatbread Pizza. I personally try to grab some of the ciders; they also have a selection of wine and non-alcoholic drinks for those not interested in beer. They do not serve any liquor or cocktails. We have also enjoyed the charcuterie boards in the past as well as the nachos. Our group has always had great service from the employees and are welcomed when we enter. If you're arriving here for Trivia Night, I suggest you come here about 30 minutes prior to it starting to make sure you get a good table. There have been times when we've ordered food during Trivia Night and expected service to be delayed, but the food still comes out relatively quickly and it tastes great. read more

All you need to know about why you should check out this Richardson spot is in its name: Guitars & Growlers. It's all about the local craft & the live music. If you like either or both, you will love G&G. The beer list is one of the few spots that still keeps an interesting mix of craft beers from local brewers and beyond. Music acts are also local amateurs having fun or honing their craft. I'll be honest about the food - it's not why you go to G&G. I've never been super impressed by the menu of subs, paninis and flatbreads. No simple burger & fries. But don't let that hold you back. G&G is a perfect spot to meet up with a group and enjoy a fun night out. read more

This place is uniquely wonderful. It's the people, the music, the beer, and the energy.. I hang out here often and have heard it's the best of the G&Gs in the metroplex.. for me, it's only a couple minutes from the house - so - very convenient.. you will dig it too! read more

Great service & environment. Unique beers. Live music & fun events. Highly recommend.

This place has a good vibe. The music is good, the beers are tasty, and the bar staff is friendly. Their beers, like many I have, have creative names that indicate a flavor profile and yet there isn't any of that flavor present in their final product. For example, then Pecan Stout was a good stout, but no sweetness like a pecan present. To be fair, my friend said that the cider did taste like pineapple so stick to ciders if you want it to taste like something other than the base beer varietal. They also have a "chit wall" where you can buy beers for others in the future. You can pick someone specifically (e.g. Petey) or an entire demographic (e.g. first responders). Very cool. read more

Feels like coming home! Found this place as it's next to the donut shop (my other weakness). On walking in my wife and I were greeted as friends even though it was our first time in. Though they were light on stouts (my go-to) this day Josh recommended some canned from False Idol Brewing. Got the Warhol--Imperial Stout with marshmallow and banana. Wife got a malbec. For food I had the Freddie King Falafel and wife had the charcuterie. Falafel was good; hummus really good. Charcuterie board came w/a blue, cheddar, brie and provolone. They let her specify variations on her order. The Warhol was wonderful; sweet, banana-ey, not hoppy, well balanced. At end of our time there Logan the cashier introduced herself and I s/w Josh a bit. Many beer options (including IPAs and Hefs). Great hole in the wall with many ongoing activities. We will be back--probably over and over! read more

12/21/21: Just had lunch with a neighbor. Amy took care of us and she was great. The decor is nice and the restaurant is very clean. You order at the bar and then choose your table. There were about 25 beers on tap, mostly locals. It's neat because there's a board that indicated where the beer was made and it's characteristics. I had the meat lovers sandwich and he had the pesto grilled chicken sandwich. Both plates came with chips. The sandwiches were pretty good and the bread was soft and fresh. There is plenty of seating inside, and plenty of parking, as it's located in a strip mall. read more

We had a great time visiting the Richardson location of Guitar and Growlers. It's a good space. There's a plethora of beer options. You can choose if you want a flight or full pours. I decided on a flight to try some different styles. I wasn't all that jazzed about the Turning Point Glacier Frost beer but my Mom really liked it. You don't understand what joy that gave me being a beer drinker. She would sample but never a win. She liked that Sour so much I bought her another one! She basically DJ Khalid me After a couple of beers we needed something to soak it up. We were far away from home. So demolish popcorn with truffle oil. We had 2 and really wanted another but we had the staff wondering how are they eating all of this. I can just imagine the rest of the menu. I gotta go back and try more beer and more. read more

The fact that I can order unique beer, play Pac-Man, and listen to live music at the same time is a solid 3 stars at that. The customer service adds another star. The staff was very attentive and determined to find you a selection perfect for you. Nice vibe, lots of seating, specialty nights, food is priced well, and a again Pac-Man. Cool spot. read more

Great atmosphere and great food. Loved the band. Saw Sister Janez and the Bad Habits and they were awesome.

Fun place for live music, quirky decor, many brew options, and munchies. The music, while good, was loud enough that we couldn't converse at all. I actually used ear plugs that I carry in my car and still could hear the music just fine. The food was good, and we enjoyed the guitar display. We'd go again, but wouldn't plan on chatting with each other while there. read more

Guitars & Growlers - Guitar display - Beer Bar Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Couldn't believe the value! This craft beer neighborhood bar and grill reminded me of my days in the bar band scene. We were there for a Wednesday night singer/ songwriter night that featured some surprisingly good artists, the food was typical bar fair, flat bread pizzas and wings but were all good offerings. The ZZ Topp themed pizza was a table favorite. They offer craft beer and wine flights. I only tried one of the IPAs but enjoyed it. You order at the bar and food is delivered to your table but you are going to have to make it back to the bar for further drinks or food orders. Waitressing isn't the strong point here but that's the only real miss. Pricing is more than fair; ten of us had ample food and drinks for two and a half hours and it tabbed out at $325 with the added 28% tip. Well worth it, would like to go again and see some of the regular artists. read more
