I was warned that it would be bubbling hot because they cook it in the pizza oven, it wasn't a lie! I love my food hot! I even had to blow on it to cool it down. It wasn't perfection...only thing that would have been better is to have some potatoes in it, but it still was delicious. There was a good amount of chicken too, I'm stuffed and couldn't eat it all...I tried! Hubby had the Soy Glazed Salmon. It came with rice and broccoli. He really enjoyed it. It came highly recommended by Boston, our server. Great recommendation! Boston kept our drinks full and was very attentive. We will ask for his section when we are back in town. Bathrooms were clean and the restaurant was pretty full on a Sunday night. Definitely will go back when we are in the area! I saw a cheeseburger that look good too...next time!

Tucked away down a quiet dirt road, this place is a true hidden gem. Despite being absolutely packed on Saturday, the energy was electric and the service never missed a beat.

The staff were not only incredibly friendly but also super knowledgeable--eager to help you choose the perfect craft beer and even share the story behind it. This will definitely become a regular destination for us. And the bonuses? A peaceful pond, charming farm animals, horse rides, and more. Oh--and minimal cell service, which made it the perfect excuse to unplug and truly enjoy the moment.

We both love wood-fired pizza and this did not disappoint. Thin crust, blistered dark patches...fully crisp bottom...just awesome!! With that said, we ordered two large pizzas with the intent of trying four of their specialties (they do 1/2 and 1/2's). We got a 1/2 Fire in the Mountain 1/2 Margarita and a 1/2 Voodoo Child and 1/2 something I can't remember the name of. It was the same as Voodoo Child, minus the hot honey and plus homemade meatballs and roasted red peppers. The best by far was the Voodoo Child. This surprised us because it's basically just pepperoni and salami. But...the fresh basil (needed more), parmesan and hot honey truly take it to next level pizza. Very, very good!!! I wish I could remember the name of the other half of our Voodoo Child. It was pepperoni, salami, meatball, basil and roasted red pepper. The homemade meatballs were totally awesome but we probably won't order this one again as the Voodoo Child was similar and just better to us. A favorite of ours though is a meatball, ricotta, garlic, onion pizza. I didn't notice if they have ricotta but if so that is going to be a custom pizza on our next order because their meatballs are excellent! Regarding our second pizza...the margarita was disappointing. Too much sauce and it wasn't a fresh, bright tomato sauce that best serves a margarita pizza. That would have been overlooked but then there was not enough basil, and the fresh mozzarella was NOT melted. Sooo...not our fav. It would be better ordered as a whole pizza if that gets the fresh mozzarella fully melted as I see in other pics here in reviews. Margarita is one of our favorite pizzas and one we make at home regularly. A brighter sauce, more fresh basil and fully melted cheese, on their phenomenal wood-fired crust would be hard to beat!! On to The Fire on the Mountain.... This one disappointed the most. Chicken, bacon, itialian sausage, tomato and jalapeño on Alfredo sauce sounds soooo good. The Alfredo was great. The itialian sausage was great. Too many places have greasy little eraser size balls of cheap itialian sausage and those are the places we will never return to. This was NOT that. The itialian sausage was great. Very flavorful, not greasy and not preformed "balls". The Alfredo and itialian sausage was the best part of this pizza though. The chicken was very good, but chopped too fine. It didn't stand up to the itialian sausage...needed to be bigger pieces thinly sliced. Next...the tomato was sorely lacking. We expected a fair amount of diced fresh tomato but got a few pieces of halved grape tomatoes. They added absolutely nothing in terms of flavor. And then the jalapeños. They were fine. Just fine. Pickled jalapeños and enough of them. We expect pickled jalapeños from Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Woodshed, Casey's... But on a wood-fired pizza...fresh jalapeño would have been soooo much better! So, I've given a lot of constructive criticism here. I don't want to end with anyone thinking I don't recommend this place. I (we) most certainly do!!! We will return many times and look forward to trying a good part of their menu. I simply hope their management sees this review and makes improvements. This however is a phenomenal wood-fired pizza as it is and we highly recommend it! And lastly, when our server came to take our drink order she asked if we knew what we wanted and I said "beer". LOL. I mean...it is Bricks and Brews... Unfortunately she had to tell us that something was wrong with their beer fizzer, or something like that, but they were working on it. We got water and she promised to let us know the second beer was available, if it happened while we were there. She also pointed out that a party of eight had been seated just after us and did we want to put our food order in first, which we said "YES PLEASE" so she came back to us before taking their food order. Very much appreciated as it was just us two. And...she came back a few minutes later to let us know beer was back on tap. She was friendly, informative and pretty dang awesome not only to us but her other tables that we were close to. We highly recommend Bricks and Brews, even with the constructive criticism mentioned here. We will return over and over and thank them for a great wood-fired experience!

Upon entering, I saw a sign that read: "Find your seat." I sat down and waited for a few minutes. Soon, a waiter came over, and since i was ordering takeout, i ordered a soda and two pizzas, no beer. It wasn't long until i received my order. The meat-lovers pizza was good, but the New Yorker wasn't so great--bland sauce. Not worth the price that I paid. If anything, their craft beer is likely their primary focus, because the pizza wasn't. As for the restaurant, it was spacious and clean.
