Not what I expected from a place advertising wood fire pizza. I sat at the bar and the bartender might have just been having a bad day but she was not into it! The place was really cool, great looking bar, cool vibe. I drive from NWA to Joplin a couple of times a month and have been wanting to try it. Its about 10 minutes, each way off 49, and would have been well worth the time if the food and and service were as good as the atmosphere.

Located under ground in the Neosho square; there's not a lot of seating but such a cool atmosphere. We stayed with the pretzels with beer cheese and mustard - these were very good. Nice flavor on the cheese. Pretzels were soft and salty. Loved it! Hubby tried the wood grilled wings appetizer - he LOVED them. Nice char and smokiness in the best way possible. Hot honey and garlic parm flavor. Huge wings compared to other wing places. Super juicy and flavorful. Couldn't have been better. I chose the Maui Waui pizza. Got the individual size (all signature pizzas can be made individual) - which is a rectangle of 6 slices. Had an AMAZING flavor. Excellent crunch on the crust. I absolutely loved this pizza. Pineapples were sweet, honey was hot (but not overpowering). Great contrast. I have ordered this every time I visit.

First I will say that the experience overall was great and we will be back many times. Can't…read morebelieve it took us this long to try this place!! We both love wood-fired pizza and this did not disappoint. Thin crust, blistered dark patches...fully crisp bottom...just awesome!! With that said, we ordered two large pizzas with the intent of trying four of their specialties (they do 1/2 and 1/2's). We got a 1/2 Fire in the Mountain 1/2 Margarita and a 1/2 Voodoo Child and 1/2 something I can't remember the name of. It was the same as Voodoo Child, minus the hot honey and plus homemade meatballs and roasted red peppers. The best by far was the Voodoo Child. This surprised us because it's basically just pepperoni and salami. But...the fresh basil (needed more), parmesan and hot honey truly take it to next level pizza. Very, very good!!! I wish I could remember the name of the other half of our Voodoo Child. It was pepperoni, salami, meatball, basil and roasted red pepper. The homemade meatballs were totally awesome but we probably won't order this one again as the Voodoo Child was similar and just better to us. A favorite of ours though is a meatball, ricotta, garlic, onion pizza. I didn't notice if they have ricotta but if so that is going to be a custom pizza on our next order because their meatballs are excellent! Regarding our second pizza...the margarita was disappointing. Too much sauce and it wasn't a fresh, bright tomato sauce that best serves a margarita pizza. That would have been overlooked but then there was not enough basil, and the fresh mozzarella was NOT melted. Sooo...not our fav. It would be better ordered as a whole pizza if that gets the fresh mozzarella fully melted as I see in other pics here in reviews. Margarita is one of our favorite pizzas and one we make at home regularly. A brighter sauce, more fresh basil and fully melted cheese, on their phenomenal wood-fired crust would be hard to beat!! On to The Fire on the Mountain.... This one disappointed the most. Chicken, bacon, itialian sausage, tomato and jalapeño on Alfredo sauce sounds soooo good. The Alfredo was great. The itialian sausage was great. Too many places have greasy little eraser size balls of cheap itialian sausage and those are the places we will never return to. This was NOT that. The itialian sausage was great. Very flavorful, not greasy and not preformed "balls". The Alfredo and itialian sausage was the best part of this pizza though. The chicken was very good, but chopped too fine. It didn't stand up to the itialian sausage...needed to be bigger pieces thinly sliced. Next...the tomato was sorely lacking. We expected a fair amount of diced fresh tomato but got a few pieces of halved grape tomatoes. They added absolutely nothing in terms of flavor. And then the jalapeños. They were fine. Just fine. Pickled jalapeños and enough of them. We expect pickled jalapeños from Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Woodshed, Casey's... But on a wood-fired pizza...fresh jalapeño would have been soooo much better! So, I've given a lot of constructive criticism here. I don't want to end with anyone thinking I don't recommend this place. I (we) most certainly do!!! We will return many times and look forward to trying a good part of their menu. I simply hope their management sees this review and makes improvements. This however is a phenomenal wood-fired pizza as it is and we highly recommend it! And lastly, when our server came to take our drink order she asked if we knew what we wanted and I said "beer". LOL. I mean...it is Bricks and Brews... Unfortunately she had to tell us that something was wrong with their beer fizzer, or something like that, but they were working on it. We got water and she promised to let us know the second beer was available, if it happened while we were there. She also pointed out that a party of eight had been seated just after us and did we want to put our food order in first, which we said "YES PLEASE" so she came back to us before taking their food order. Very much appreciated as it was just us two. And...she came back a few minutes later to let us know beer was back on tap. She was friendly, informative and pretty dang awesome not only to us but her other tables that we were close to. We highly recommend Bricks and Brews, even with the constructive criticism mentioned here. We will return over and over and thank them for a great wood-fired experience!

I also love that the restaurant is located inside an old historic hotel, which gives it such a cool atmosphere -- and maybe even a few ghost stories. Overall, it is a great spot with good food, great service, and a fun historic feel. I definitely recommend checking it out.

An egg on there? What? I've never heard of such a thing, but yes please. And I had the brûlée corn; which I may need to learn how to replicate because I've never seen this on any menu in Chicago, but it's too far to travel as often as I'll be thinking about that dish! The old fashions were smooth! Went with vanilla and loved the subtle flavors. Everyone was so nice and the atmosphere was a delightful mix of old school pub/English castle. All of it was just what I was hoping to find. Food off the beaten path that deserves a huge shout out. In a town of bland flavors, this place shines like a real gem!

Not only was the food great but I just love the setting of this place. There is a small film area, lots of board games to have a cute board game night and even a backyard with live music!! As for food, I got the truffled grapes and a bahn mi with a side salad. All items were tasty and I felt very healthy after that meal!! The sauces/dressings they use are so tasty and really elevate the sandwich/salad. I wish they added a little more honestly! My only issues with this restaurant are they run out of some sides very quickly. My friends and I went at peak dinner time (5/6pm) and they didn't have a lot of sides left! I was really looking forward to trying the fries but I guess that means I just have to go back again! My other comment is the price. I spent roughly $12 for the sandwich and $6 for the grapes. As good as they were, the portion size for the price was a little bit unequal. I was still hungry after :( However, I do still highly recommend this place and would definitely want to go back (especially when they got a movie play!)

Since we had chips as the sides on both our meals, maybe next time I'll choose something else and go with the wings, too. Great friendly service, a nice little sports bar/pub with a good menu. It's not easy to find - the entrance is on the parking lot side. And you'll need to arrive early as it is a very small establishment.
