    Swung by our local microbrewery, Main & Mill Brewing Co., nestled in Festus, Missouri's historic Main Street. While known for burgers, the cod tacos are a must-try. Opened in 2014, Main & Mill has been crafting its own beers and serving up American pub fare like burgers and sandwiches. Our cozy spot is a community hub, hosting fundraisers, concerts, trivia nights, and the annual Street Fest. Family-friendly dining room downstairs, or head up to the taproom with its spacious, newly covered deck.

    Poutine

    Main & Mill is a convenient brewery on Main Street in Festus. The inside reminds me of a tavern, with low lighting and dark wood with brick. We've been here a handful of times to get beer; however this is our first time ordering food. My husband ordered the poutine and we got a couple of beers. Their beers are ok, nothing to write home about. I got the Clyde's Ale and he got the Weiss City. When the poutine came out, we were not impressed. I've never seen deep fried cheese curds for poutine -- it made the whole dish extremely salty. The fries were not chunky like poutine fries should be and the gravy was very bacony. My husband and I couldn't eat more than a few bites before we called it quits. Our server was very kind and accommodating and discounted the poutine for us. I probably would come back for their patio seating and beer, but not food.

    Not sure how, but my French fry is growing hair.

    Service was slow, and they were not busy. Never offered to refill our drinks and there was hair in my fries.

    Meal options are well thought out and cater cater the American classics. Really good prices for the quality and portions. Great cocktails and a beer for every occasion. They do reallly fun can releases. Live music on most Thursday and Sunday. Going to Trivia they have on the last Tuesday of the month. Their staff cares you have a good time and help you when you need something. Highly recommend checking out Street Fest every October for great live bands.

    Toasted ravioli

    M&M is a staple on Festus Main Street. I've been several times over the years and have generally always left satisfied. The spot is very comfortable and had plenty of other guests to keep the atmosphere active/alive. This visit I tried a peach hibiscus cider--it was good, but had more of a hibiscus taste than peach. My table ordered toasted ravioli for an appetizer and would again in the future. For an entree I had a side salad (nice portion!), baked potato (very large) and the salmon. The salmon wasn't great, could definitely use some seasoning. I would want to try something different in the future--the burgers seem to be popular! Our waitress was friendly enough, but she did forget our drinks a few times and made us feel rushed to order. It didn't make a big difference in our evening and that hasn't been the standard for us in the past, so I think it was an isolated incident. Overall, will inevitably visit again and always glad to see a business thriving on Main Street!

    We've had Main & Mill on our minds since we went a month ago! Here's what we can't stop thinking about: 1. THE MULES Mules have been our cocktail of choice this summer. Main & Mill has 5 mule flavors to choose from, 6 if you count the original. Mulberry is an especially fun option! 2. THE FRIED CHICKEN This breading is seriously something to brag about. Also, isn't the Red Bird the most beautiful chicken sandwich you've ever seen?! It's tossed in buffalo sauce and topped with ghost pepper jack cheese and ranch dressing. 3. THE FOMO Not exaggerating when we say everything on this menu sounded marvelous. It was hard to decide what to order because no matter what we'd be missing out on something super yum. Of course, there's always next time, and there *will* be a next time!

    Flight, including (L to R) Clyde's Ale, The Monsignor, Mean Mr. Mocha, and Getting Chummy. All highly recommended.

    When I first noticed Main & Mill selections in my local beer aisle a few months ago, I was very curious. I'd never been to Festus before, but I knew it was only about a 45-minute drive from the city. The commute is 100% worth it - beyond the beer itself, the atmosphere, food, and service are equal reasons to visit this brewery. First walking in is an inviting experience - we were in a seated in a spacious area upstairs, great for medium-sized groups and conversation. Main & Mill offers an expensive food menu of appetizers, burgers, sandwiches and salads - I really enjoyed the Buffalo Chicken Salad on my last visit and look forward to trying a different entree next time. The flight choices were absolutely delicious and helped solidify Main & Mill as one of my current favorites in the St. Louis metro - I found each choice to be incredibly flavorful and distinct, enhanced on tap. As an imperial stout fan, Mean Mr. Mocha may have been the standout. I'm looking forward to trying a flight of different selections when I return in a few weeks, and I recommend Main & Mill to anyone in the St. Louis-area.

    They have the fries with the crispy battery crust. The Philly and smash burger are melty, flavorful, and delicious.

There is almost always a wait but tonight we got seated pretty quick. The menu has quite a bit to choose from and unfortunately I feel like the prices have gone up and the quantity doesn't match what you are paying for. I ordered the fried shrimp. I asked for fries instead of the rice & beans. For $17.50 I'm expecting 8-10 shrimp...I got 5. They gave me the rice & beans and when they brought out the missing fries, they were stone cold. I was informed that since I didn't get the fries originally there, would be no substitution charge and that the rice & beans were on the house. My husband ordered the jambalaya entree that came with cornbread and a salad. Cornbread was a sliver but it appears he had the best meal of the night. Our friends ordered the chicken sandwich and it came with stone cold fries. The other ordered a burger that came without the cheese he requested (then was charged for asking for it) and stone cold fries. All fries were discarded and fresh ones brought out after awhile. 1 out of the 4 meals ordered was the only thing that turned out right. I kinda expected an apology or something for all the issues with our meals but nothing. The company we had was great. The dining experience was a let down.

To our surprise, it was quite crowded for a weekday lunch, but we were promptly greeted by the bartender as soon as we walked in. The atmosphere has a charming, old-school bar vibe but comes with a very strong smell of smoke. There is a $25 credit card minimum, which is manageable for two people sharing a bill but could be a challenge if you're dining solo unless you order multiple drinks or some appetizers. The service was quick, and our food arrived promptly. The chicken tenders and tots were incredibly hot and fresh, but the BBQ burger was a bit underwhelming--it was simply a burger with BBQ sauce. Perhaps we misread the menu and could have added more toppings. We opted to eat outside to avoid the heavy smoke smell. The covered patio area has a quirky charm with its mismatched old tables, and it looks like a fun local hangout, especially with the live music area. Overall, the food was good, but we'll probably stick to takeout in the future.
