    Bloody Mary
    Michaela R.

    A decent spot to grab a bite, I do like their bottomless mimosas. Otherwise, their menu can be on the pricier side. The ambiance is cool with the tall ceilings and the garage doors that can open up for fresh air in the summer. Service is friendly and they take reservations which is a plus, just better brunch places around for a fairer price!

    We stopped in for dinner with a party of six and everything was really excellent. Service was not slow and not fast, just nice to be able to enjoy our drinks and talk. We started with the wings which were really good, and the entrees were delicious - but huge! We'll share next time. I had the birria grilled cheese and it was really nice; the mountain of fries it came with had great flavor too. The only downside was that it's really quite loud and the dining room wasn't even full. But we would probably come back! (And we had a great view of some fireworks!)

    $19 for this.

    We have always been fans of Merriment Social's burgers, and general service. This was our first time back in a while, and unfortunately, we were disappointed. I ordered the spicy sausage rigatoni, which was rather bland. And, at $19, we were shocked to find out my husband's chicken tenders came with no fries or side. Even the kids meals included fries. Menu needs some work, or we likely won't be back.

    Neon Tiger is cool!

    Went to Merriment tonight with my wife and dog. They were very welcoming. We sat outside in front of the open garage doors. Waygu burger was great. Drinks were cold and service was attentive.

    Biscuits N' Gravy
    Genevieve K.

    We stopped at Merriment Social for a Sunday brunch at around 10:15am and were able to get a table easily! I would say by the time we left a little after 11am it was pretty packed. There were a lot of large groups that they were easily able to accommodate, a lot of which looked to have made reservations. We sat upstairs and had a great view of the entire restaurant. Our food came quickly and was really good overall! I had the biscuits and gravy which could have just had the tiniest bit more flavor, but overall I really enjoyed. The service was friendly and efficient and we will definitely be back!

    Brussel sprout salad
    Nabila M.

    Came here for a family brunch for the first time. We ordered the brussels sprouts to share, and it was absolutely delicious. It was sweet and had walnuts. We also ordered mimosas, and I ordered the brussels sprout salad as my main. It had goat cheese, squash and asian pears! Definitely recommend. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their food and drinks. We will definitely be coming back.

    Cheese curds
    Jerilyn A.

    Me and a friend stopped here for dinner on a Friday evening. They have a happy hour ending at 6 which is nice if you can get in earlier after work. The menu was different than what I saw online and it looks like they make take different variations of similar flavors and foods. We ordered cheese curds to try and they were delicious. There was a garlic flavor which was almost addicting. I had to stop myself so that my friend wouldn't feel like I overtook the appetizer. I ordered a spicy fried chicken wrap and my friend got a quesadilla. She wasn't the biggest fan of hers but I enjoyed my wrap. I like the overall ambience of this place. They have a large door they open to let the air in on nice days. I would come back to try more as I enjoyed my first time here.

    Biscuits N' Gravy with no eggs
    Tiana M.

    I liked the brunch here! I got the biscuits and gravy and they were so delicious. Got without eggs because I don't like those but very good. I don't handle spice well and I thought it was the perfect level. Our waiter was also very good, super patient and funny. Would definitely come back

    Awesome birthday brunch at Merriment Social! Really good breakfast burrito and a huge portion of their fries with aioli. The burrito had crispy hash browns, sausage, eggs, and bacon with this tangy avocado verde salsa. Such a simple dish but had tons of flavor and loved the grilled tortilla! The fries were literally perfect- so crispy and soft on the inside and I love garlic aioli I could have eaten the entire thing! Opted for one of their mocktails and the "you deserve it" was so good I wanna recreate it! Lime juice, strawberry purée, mint, soda water- it was so refreshing! Super spacious inside with a good vibe and affordable brunch! Will have to try the bottomless mimosas too with all 3 flavors:)

But parking is paid parking on the street, with spots hard to find. Once the parking situation is resolved, things are great. The vibes inside was awesome - very open, with lots of seating. There seems to be tons of seating options, and outdoor seating as well for when the days are warmer. And for a brewery, the most important thing? The beer, of course! And it was good. We've had their beer before and have always like them. It was great getting some more on draft. Agro pop IPA Yummy!! Panther pale ale OK, but not my fave. I wouldn't get it again. Cheese curds $14 These were delicious, but it did get salty after munching through the plate. We were limiting ourselves to just one drink, and needed more drinks or another food item to mediate our tastebuds. I'd order again with a proper meal or with more booze.

But since I wasn't getting the happy hour special, I had a Piña colada. It was amazing, the bartender Blair made it to perfection. And I could quite literally say it was the cherry on top to my day. The wings are spectacular so they were a must. And I may be teetering on the scale to say that the dry rub is my favorite instead of the classic bbq. I also tried their fried pickle fries for the first time, I was skeptical since I'm not a fan of Texas Roadhouse fried pickles. Nope these could easily be a swap for regular fries. Not to mention these pickles remind me of the fresh pickles you buy from the fridge at the grocery store. Line dancing was a hit, another mixed crowd. Pleasant energetic and welcoming atmosphere. Even the host and waiters seem to hype it up, particularly if you come in with cowgirl boots. They opened up the garage door that let in a perfect breeze and the view was spectacular since it was a clear sunny forecast of a day.
