    I love a good brewery and this place is a good one! I will admit the first time coming here, I guess there was a private event in one of the rooms (the cooler room) and that forced us into the other room across the way and there were only 2 selections of beer which I thought was weird for a Brewery. I am unsure why if this so I don't want to hinder their reputation because this place was still great, and the beer I did have was still good. I mostly enjoyed the atmosphere and the company I was with. They have some live stock in the front and the whole place is just really cool to enjoy a few beers (and/or some pizza). I will definitely be back and hopefully they'll have more beer options next time and HOPEFULLY I'll get to go in the cool room , a girl can hope.

    Love that this place is just a few minutes from my house. Went on a Sunday afternoon when there was live music, but was also very crowded. There was about a 10-15 minute wait to order, the only empty tables were pretty far & then it took about 1 hour to get our Brussel sprouts and another 30 months to get the avocado toast & bayougoula pizza. Positives: Bloody Mary was amazing, venue is great (chickens, sheep, rabbits for the kids to look at, swingset, music, etc), brussel sprouts are amazing. Bayougoula pizza was also good. Cons: ridiculously long time to get food (I know this was a trend because as we were ordering, another woman was asking about her order since it has been an hour and she hasn't gotten her food), avocado toast is basically avocado & lettuce on a thin crust cheese pizza (not a fan). I'll definitely go back on a less busy day to try again though.

    This is a really neat place! The atmosphere is fun with the farm feel. The beer is tasty, especially the honey IPA. They do offer a lot of unique beers which I want to try in the future. The food was good as well. The menu includes pizza, tacos and chips/queso/salsa. We tried a few of the tacos and the one with fried chicken was the best (I don't remember the name of it). The outdoor area is a fun place to hang out with friends on a cool night. They have corn hole, ping pong, giant chess, and probably other things I missed. Overall, Istrouma Brewing is a great place to hang out! Awesome addition to the BR area. We will be back often

    Good food and beer. Bathrooms were so bad it wasn't funny. The smell was awful. Hard to believe.

    This place was so cute and inviting! We stumbled across this place and so glad we did. The owner (I believe) was very nice and explained to us how everything worked. It's a brewery on a farm that serves delicious pizza and baked goodies! We ordered several different pizzas, most of them having unique toppings and they were SOOO good. The atmosphere is nice, they have farm animals and a place for kids to run around and play. And let's not forget the beer- beers were tasty also!

    Went on a quieter Wednesday afternoon with a group and had a great time. Bar was short staffed but I don't think that affected anything. Pizza was phenomenal. The bayougoula was our fave but we tried three or four and they were all delicious. Homemade hummus veggies were a little disappointing but the hummus itself was good. We weren't big beer people (went with people who are) but the bartender's gin and tonics went down real smooth! Definitely want to go back on the weekend and enjoy the outdoor things. Only weird thing to me was the bathroom situation. I'm hoping that's just temporary but they were just the upgraded porta potty trailers instead of actual bathrooms.

    Cool, rustic place with great service and outdoor seating. Their best pizza in my opinion is the boucherie. It comes with pepperoni, Italian sausage, bacon, red sauce, and mozzarella cheese. It's delicious! Good beer selection and great desserts. They even have dippin' dots! The only thing I'm not a fan of is their portable restroom trailer.

    Pepperoni and sausage

    Sunday funday ! The beer was great. I tried the IPA and it was awesome and my husband tried a stout and he loved it. Then we ordered chips and queso, delicious! Then I had a "Farmerita" pizza, outstanding! My husband decided for "Pepperoni and sausage" and he ate it all! The ingredients are fresh and the flavor is amazing. The place is very family friendly and kids can play around. We will be back soon!

I feel like if they invested in their outside seating, it could be the spot. They also serve pizza and chips and canned soda. I don't believe they do brewery tours. But definitely a hidden gem.

    Wonderful place to grab a pint, flight, or a few beers to bring home! Happened to go on a Friday…read morenight before a ticketed event, but managed to grab a quick pint in the half hour before they closed for regular business. The interior is super cute with long tables with stools and smaller tables with chairs. There are even a few booths tucked away. Our bartender was super sweet and patient with us during out first visit and even helped us pick out beers that we might like. It's interesting to note how many other reviews note a plethora of IPAs - my guess is this is seasonal because there were lots of malty stouts in early March. I love a rotating menu, so this makes me excited to go back. I was between the Wendy Peffercorn and Field of Nightmares (I think? It was a chocolate peanut butter stout.). The bartender let me try both and it was hard to choose! I ended up with Wendy Peffercorn, but I definitely would have been happy with either. Looking forward to going back, maybe even for Trivia night on Tuesdays! FYI - this business participates in PubPass and even though their website doesn't indicate food service, it looks like they rotate pizzas of the day.

    I have been to Agile Brewing several times and it may be my favorite brewery in Baton Rouge. I…read moreknow it has my favorite brewery snack. The cheese curds and craklins. Whoever put these two items together is a genius! The chewy, meaty, crunchiness of the cracklins along with the gooey, saltiness of the cheese curds is the perfect combo. It's like Peanut butter and Jelly! Peas and Carrots! Beavis and Butthead! Ok I may have went too far but they are great. The beer is good too. Agile usually has 15 or so different beers or seltzers on tap. What I like about Agile is they don't just have 12 different IPA's (although I am a huge IPA guy) a stout and a blonde. They have all kinds of styles which is a good change of pace. Upon my last visit I had a Stout, An American Wheat, an IPA and a Krystalweisse (German light beer) in my flight. All were really good but the Krystalweisse was surprisingly good in that it was both flavorful and still light. Another plus for Agile is they are in an industrial park that includes 2 distilleries and another brewery. So, get you some curds and cracklins then get shmangled. Just call an Uber.

Bingo is free for paying customers, and I got their #5 brew - Lemon Buffer, a lemon vanilla sour - and the Locked and Loaded Taters. The beer queso on the tater tots was a nice touch! I was indoors for Bingo but their outdoor space looked nice with picnic tables and string lights lit up at night.

A few weeks ago I was in town for a hockey game and in need of some refreshments pre-game. This was the perfect spot. It was a little rainy so a large portion of the place was unusable. In better weather the courtyard would've been a nice place to sit. There are many non courtyard tables and that's where we found ourselves. Calling yourself a beer garden and not having an extensive list would be foolish. Foolish they aren't here. Their list is extensive. So extensive and frequently changing that it's found via QR code on the table. The food menu is typical bar fare but taste anything but typical. The giant pretzel was delicious and paired well with the beers. Cheese fries are always welcome when having a drink and their version was equally great. Service was friendly and prompt. Check out Mid City Beer Garden. You'll like it.

You can't beat it! A thick juicy burger cooked to perfection with the best crispy fries we've had in Louisiana. We sat at the bar. There was a slight glitch with one of our burgers in that they forgot the cheese and pickles but once we brought it to the server's attention it was corrected immediately. We would give our experience 5 stars except for that mishap and that we had to ask for napkins and cutlery. It was a little chilly the night we visited so we sat at the inside bar but there is a lot of outdoor seating which I'm sure would be nice on a warmer evening.

BJ is one of only two places I've ever had to return food in all of my years of going out to eat The negatives are we waited forever for a table. We had a 630 reservation. We sat at about 8 o'clock. You could tell they were short-staffed in the front of house. We had a party of about 25 to 30 and maybe 19 of us left over, once we were allowed to the table, a portion of our party had to leave. Working in a restaurant I could see they were understaffed in the front, because no tables were being seated from the wait. You could kind of see the wait growing, but There was no rotation of tables going in, as other parties left....small parties or large parties. Once we were allowed to the table, you could see the restaurant was about 60% full. As a restaurant manager, myself,I understand. No judgment at all, other than the fact that I was starving. We had one server. Needed 2. Especially with a table of 14 to 16-teenage boys and girls. Again no judgment I have to make those decisions at work sometimes also. Our server was Cheyenne. She did the absolute best she could. She remain professional and calm and she did pretty good under the circumstances. Had we had another server, the flow of service would've been faster. I wanted to order a few appetizers for the kids tables and.probably would've ordered more drinks from the bar, than I did, but she just couldn't get around everybody fast enough. Keep in mind one of our tables had at least 14 teenage boys slurping down their beverages back to back to back. The food was delicious. It was hot. It was fresh. It beat my expectations from my previous experiences at BJ's. I will add BJ to my rotation of going out to eat places in hopes that the quality of the food I received is consistent with what I had Saturday night.
