One thing I really like is that customers can pay to choose the music, so there's always something different playing. We've also been there on nights with a DJ, which makes for an even better time. There's a small dance floor with a stripper pole if that's your thing! They also allow smoking, and you can even buy cigarettes there. They also have a vape and Pokémon card vending machine, again if that's your thing. They have a separate pool room, along with plenty of seating options, including bar seating, high-top tables, and tables facing outside. Overall, it's a great place to hang out with friends, grab a drink, play some pool, and enjoy the atmosphere. I always have a good time here and definitely recommend checking it out!

Plenty of "spaces" to sit, depending on your mood. Indoor, outdoor, high and low seating, family-friendly. Staff was very nice and helpful. Just the right amount of chatty. My wife loved her lager. The not so good. My only complaint here is a significant one considering we came to a brewing spot. I ordered the stout. I order them at any brewing place we visit. This was by far the most bland, watery stout I've tasted. I let the server know when she asked us how it was. She didn't have much to say about it. Seemed surprised to hear it. Other than that, the experience at Big Top was nice. We'd return on our way back from doing something in Sarasota.

1 Star - Extremely Unsanitary and Unacceptable…read more I had a very concerning experience at Miller's Ale House in Sarasota. I ordered the Chicken Bacon Ranch Dunk and waited quite a while for my food. When it finally arrived, I thought the long wait was the only issue. A few minutes later, a gentleman from another table came over and told me that his girlfriend had originally been served my food. She had ordered her meal without cheese, realized it was the wrong order, and had already picked at the food with her hands before giving it back to the waitress. According to him, his girlfriend specifically told the waitress that it was the wrong order and returned it. Instead of having the kitchen remake the meal, that same plate was then brought to me and served as my food. That is completely unacceptable and, more importantly, extremely unsanitary. Once food has been served to another customer and handled at their table, it should never be taken back and served to someone else. I really appreciate the gentleman coming over and telling me what happened because otherwise I would have had no idea. This wasn't simply an incorrect order or slow service--it was a serious food-handling and sanitation issue. I hope management addresses this with the staff immediately. Customers should be able to trust that the food placed in front of them has not already been served to and handled by another customer. If you want, I can also make it a little more aggressive and attention-grabbing for Yelp, while keeping it factual so management can't easily dismiss it.

The sandwiches were very tasty!

Everything was excellent - the chicken was so moist & came off the bone clean. You can tell this place knows what they are doing in terms of food. Collard greens were not salty like they normally are at other places. Would definitely come back again & perhaps try their BBQ next time! Get there early for bands, the place really fills up fast!
