Drifting Back to Lions Roar for Sure!…read more We ended the night at Lions Roar Brewing in Westfield and what a way to cap off an evening. The service was excellent -- friendly, attentive, and on point all night. The craft beer selection had some real creativity on tap. We were disappointed to hear the mango brew had run out -- that one sounded like a winner -- but the Mexican and lime brew more than made up for it. Bright, flavorful, and refreshing, it was a great pour that kept us coming back for more. But the real showstopper of the night? Drifting Back. This four-piece band was absolutely exceptional -- tight, talented, and packed with great tunes. They had the room in the palm of their hands all night. If you ever see them on the schedule here, don't miss it. A minor gripe about the sold-out mango brew aside, this was a fantastic night out at Lions Roar. We'll absolutely be back.

They also have a small covered beer garden out back. Prices on their beers were very reasonable and pours came in an assortment of sizes. We had two IPAs and both were different but good in their own way.

I've been wanting to come here for a while now but didn't get the chance to until last week. It's in a great location and the brewery itself is open and vibey as can be. We got there about an hour before closing so we didn't end up getting to listen to the music that was playing as they were packing up as we came. I hope we get there earlier next time as we love listening to live music as we sip excellent beers. The beers were spectacular. I had the Local IPA and my gf had the Sour City: POG. The server was very welcoming and friendly. There was probably 8-10 people there when we came and everyone was happy, smiling, and enjoying themselves and their beers. I look forward to coming back and trying more of your beers. Thanks ;)

The inside is dark with tons of awesome plants everywhere. We had some ipas and a Pilsner and the prices here are very reasonable. We spent $20ish for 3 beers. They do not have their own food but rotate food trucks outside. Definitely will be back the next time I'm in the area.

This is one of my favorite breweries to kick back and relax. I love coming here when they have bands playing but we were here too early so we didn't get to enjoy that on said day. We ordered: Me - Gourd N Gecko (5 stars) GF- Mango Contango (5 Stars) My gf wanted the Blackberry Bonus but the keg was empty and the worker was going to change it but I said don't worry about it right now.

We ordered: Sun Deck Flex Ginger-Lime Kolsch 10/10 Ground Under Repair APA 10/10 I also love their outdoor space too. We took our beers out there and sat at a picnic table and enjoyed ourselves tremendously. This is a very hip little spot and I cannot wait to come back again and enjoy it for all that it is and more.

I left her a 25% tip, but after I left I felt she deserved more. Speaking of tips, their suggested tip at bottom of receipt is based the check price after taxes. This is stated on the check... The drinks: We decided to start with drinks. My friend had the Moscow mule and I had the Bloody Mary. My bloody Mary was very good and strong and came with 3 huge olives. The olives tasted fresh. I've had weird tasting olives in other places. I liked it so much, I had another. Big mistake... My friend liked her Moscow Mule. The food: I had the turkey burger with bacon and avocado and truffle fries. The burger was cooked to perfection. It was not dry, but juicy without being under cooked. The bacon was perfect and the slices of avocado were fresh. My friend ordered the Ham Benedict. I didn't taste it but she said it was very good. The eggs looked perfectly done. That came with a side of potatoes. I think this will be my new brunch spot when I come to visit North Jersey. I recommend them.

Not sure what's up, but these girls are clearly not happy to be there. Hospitality is not their specialty. In contrast, the guys offered kindness, smiles, and friendly banter.

I'm going to guess I'm not the first person to render this opinion. It's a nice place, with a pleasant ambiance, but I don't know how long people will overlook this problem before deciding to stop coming.
