    New York thin 18" house special
    Darrin D.

    I'm not a beer drinker... so I skipped this place for way too long.... Don't make the same mistake I made. The pizzas are a-maz-ing! Great interior with plenty of outside seating on these perfect summer/autumn days. We've always enjoyed good service .... Friendly staff.... Great location in MLK (for us anyway!)

    Old Town IPA

    Came upon this spot at the right time. I had been walking in the rain for what felt like forever, and needed a nice place to sit and have a drink....Listen to some jams and remember that someone has the most beautiful singing voice ever... They keep it COVID compliant. Seating is super spaced out. You order at the bar and then can choose which sanatized table you fancy. There were a lot of beers to choose from. Like... a lot. Old Town IPA: they call it west coast style... maybe I'm used to this style to such a degree that it simply tastes of a hoppy IPA to me. I wonder what other styles and tastes my West coast living has robbed me of? I didn't try anything else, but can tell you the service was good! I'd definitely return to try out some more selections. This visit had to be kept somewhat short as I had puddles to step in, and shivers to shiver... walking around on a cold rainy Saturday is of course serious work!

    Pizza and brewery for the win here! Sports tv hung up and lodging kind of ambiance with a bar and brew machines on the other side! Came here because the comedy show was right next door so decided to grab some food before getting some laughs in! Nice beer selections! Pizza was of the norm and complimenting to the beer!

    Hungry and started eating before remembered to take a picture.

    Best balls! 5 meatballs in a spicy tomato sauce with gooey cheese! the garlic knots were okay--strong garlic but a little half-baked. also had a slice, which was mediocre, char isn't everything. The beer was exceptional. The server friendly. Very pretty place, log cabin lodge in the heart of the city. Was well into my meal--hungry--before i remembered to take a picture.

    This used to be a 4 star for me but not anymore.... greed has set in. I asked for the happy hour menu and was told they quit doing it on Friday and Saturday. I explained that we have been coming out of our way for the last year and a half for happy hour. Get this she told me they are keeping up with their competitors!!!! Haha. Instead of staying ahead of them they are taking away to make more profit. They just lost my group of 6 that comes over 1-2 times a month. By the way I am the duke here. But then aren't brewpubs just flourishing in Portland anyway?

    Pizza Week Review: 10 of 10 consecutive pizza slices I want to start off saying, I am no professional... I did eat 10 different companies slices on one day, one after another... so yeah... I will start with my one gripe... DROP THE BLACK BEANS OFF MY PIZZA!! Now the pizza, I don't quote much, but just listen to this! Beer-braised barbacoa brisket baked with black beans and finished with pickled onions, cotija, cilantro, and chipotle crema Do you hear that... let it sink in. This was my favorite, along with blackbird pizza, for pizza week... I will say this, the crust was perfect... the sauce was amazing, the toppings were untouchable, the crema... I could have gotten an IV drip if they offered it. Onions were still crunchy, oh and that meat.. It was great. The staff was all happy attractive people whizzing around and getting work done, they were probably the friendliest staff we saw that day, and the place was packed.. I will be back to check out thew offerings!! Killer job!

    I've been dying to come here and I'm happy I was finally able to go. I will say this is possibly the most underrated Popular brewery in our city. Really good beer but the pizza takes it over the top which is some of the best city. Also love the fact how easy it is to get to right on MLK. The service was amazing and the quests I met there were just as awesome as well. It has some of the best out door seating too. I'm most definitely going back soon.

    Detroit-style pizza with chicken, pepperoni, and basil
    Chris P.

    This place was great! We stopped in purely on impulse and were very surprised with the quality and the ambience. We got a Detroit-style pizza with chicken, pepperoni, and basil, half a dozen garlic knots, meatballs, and a couple of cocktails. (The serving sizes are all great, we intentionally got a ton of food to have leftovers.) The pizza was seriously 9/10, with great flavor, airy dough, and a perfect caramelization of cheese. The garlic knots were equally excellent, and the meatballs were also very good. Our drinks were only $5, which was reasonable for the size. The total for everything I described was $50, which I think was extremely fair. The service was also great, and the cook time was speedy. It's a very cute little place that doesn't feel like it matches its unimpressive neighborhood. We'll definitely come back at some point.

    The not so crispy crispy crust
    Nyla M.

    After arriving at an impasse about where to eat on a Saturday night, we ended up at Old Town Brewing Co at 6:00 pm. The place was half empty except for a birthday party of little kids, happy in their balloon festooned corner. First, the good: the salad we ordered, the Brewer's Special, was full of fresh, crisp spinach, lettuce, decent tomatoes, crispy bacon bits and tender chicken chunks. The dressing wasn't exciting, vinegar based and pretty bland, but it didn't overwhelm the salad. The pizza, a crispy crust margarita, was a mixed bag. The sauce was a sweet, I spiced red. My partner like it. Me, not so much. The crispy. Rust was not crispy at all, except for the outside edges. It was soggy and rubbery under the weight of the toppings. I do not recommend it. The mozzarella was nice. The fresh tomatoes actually had flavor. We added mushrooms but they were hard to find, so few of them were there. The menu is written in the tiniest font that it is not accessible. Make sure to bring reading glasses. Our server was friendly and efficient. I won't be rushing back but it looked like the family with the large kid's party were happy enough.

    Ghost Pie  You won't regret it!
    Will C.

    To be honest, we typically stay away from dining at breweries because the atmosphere tends to be on the more lively side...and we enjoy our silence :) That aside, it was worth checking out for carry-out during COVID on the suggestion of a friend. We were very glad to go! It was pizza Friday (that's a thing) and we ordered a thin-crust, large Ghost Pie. That pizza lasted two days, two meals...not because it's so big but we didn't want to seem like gluttons. But yes, the pizza is a great size. I was apprehensive about an alfredo based pie thinking of all the ways it could go wrong and their team shocked me. What a great pizza! The pizza was baked to perfection, the crust/dough was out of this world (with great flavors) and the sauce was perfect and served as the perfect accent to the other flavors. We'll definitely be going back especially since they are 2-3 blocks from us in a walkable part of town. Their service and their spirits were great despite the ongoing community health crisis. Thanks OTB team. Everyone stay safe and stay well and we will see more of you.

    Lemon wafer blonde and elderflower
    Stephanie S.

    Nice brewery! I had a lemon blonde which was really good, had a nice lemon flavor. I also sampled the elderflower beer as well. I liked the space it definitely had a cozy vibe. They also serve pizza here, I didn't have any but it looked pretty good. Overall, it was a good stop I would recommend it.

    Not tasty knots
    Humam T.

    I am updating my review. I am still giving it 5 stars even though my beer Export 80 was not good. It tasted like cough medicine with some chemical taste in it. The pizza was good. We had the original crust which was on the chick. It tasted good though. It is also on th e pricey side. The knots or not good at all. The meatball and spaghetti was very good. It's a cool place to hang out though.

Their tap list is extensive but also includes non-standard options. We love to see non-alcoholic beers as well as gluten free beer, cider, cocktails, and other libations. The food menu is great too. There are several items that either come gluten free or can be modified to be. The servers are knowledgeable about the ingredients of the menu items and I feel confident and safe eating here when gluten free is a need for me. They can get pretty crowded, but have several seating options. It was nice out today so outdoor seating was even possible, though it looked like there was a wait. There are tvs in several spots that showcase local sports when possible. There is a kids area and you can sit close while the kids play. Everyone we come in contact with here from servers to hosts are super friendly and welcoming. The food is pretty good. This time around, we shared the garlic Parmesan fries and the chicken wings (buffalo and honey gojuchang sauces). The wings were smoked and moist with good flavor. The fries were alright. More of the aioli would have helped so maybe request extra sauce or get some on the side. The dessert menu has some non-traditional offerings. The highlight for me was the cheesecake. I was assured by a server one time that the chef creates a gluten free cheesecake that rotates on the seasonal dessert menu. The current offering is tiramisu. The coffee chocolate sauce is good and I appreciated the bonus chocolate chip biscotti. The actual cheesecake is decent and I would be excited to try other flavors in the future.

The patty was cooked with a slight pink -- exactly how it should be -- juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The spring lettuce was an interesting switch from the usual, but it actually worked and gave the burger a fresh bite. It's a solid-sized burger too, definitely filling. Only minor thing was some of the cheese slid off, but nothing that took away from it overall. I also tried the Caesar salad. It didn't come with croutons (not sure if that's intentional), and while the dressing was evenly coated, the Parmesan was a bit heavy and ended up overpowering the rest. Not bad, just not as balanced as it could be. What really sets this place apart is the atmosphere.

Attentive without being overbearing, respectful, and genuinely friendly -- the kind of staff that makes the experience better without trying too hard. Overall, a really solid spot.

Great rooftop vibe and a fun place to hang out for an afternoon. We ordered a beer flight, and as someone who's had quite a few brewery flights and is pretty open-minded when it comes to beer, this one unfortunately missed the mark for me. Out of the 10 beers, only about 3 were somewhat enjoyable and around 4 were honestly undrinkable. Thankfully, the food redeemed things a bit. We got the pizza with artichoke hearts, mozzarella, ricotta, garlic, and basil. It was super flavorful and the dough was delicious, especially the crust. We also tried the catfish po' boy. It was a little salty, but the fish itself was cooked really well and the sauce was tasty. The spring mix salad with cranberries, slivered almonds, and feta was good too, though I personally would've liked a better toppings-to-lettuce ratio.

The line gets long for the bar and there's no way to close your tab if you leave it open unless you're willing to wait in the line again to pay. If you don't do that you will be automatically charged 20% gratuity which is a good deal to not have to line up just to close out.
