    I love this place. Great food. Consistent, and prices are fair. I'm 18 miles away from Hendersonville and That's my '' Go To '' Mexican restaurant. My Mom ordered 2 tacos w rice/beans for 8.99 Can't beat that! I always try a different steak dinner since beef costs so much.

    The food has been really amazing lately . Hot fresh . The menu is pretty extensive . And the service is great . I always enjoy coming here , great atmosphere . I ordered the warm fajita salad .

    So so good. Don't remember the name of the dish.

    Amazing food! 1st time here and asked for a recommendation. They serve bean dip instead of the normal salsa. Everything was hot and fresh and seasoned brilliantly. Service was quick and great! Only complaint was the heat in the front room need more air flow.

    we stopped in for lunch and i was not disappointed. the food was sooooo yummy and the prices were really good compared to other mexican restaurants i've been to. i got the pollo campero and it was delicious. the food came out really quickly and the service was good. i highly recommend eating here!

    The moment we entered the door everything was like usual started awesome. I was probably sat and chips and salsa were already on the table. The waitress appeared rather new so I did my best to try to keep the situation at ease. Unfortunately she had a hard time understanding my order but did the best she could by finding someone who could understand me better. After doing so all went well as usual and we will be back each time we visit.

    Charbroiled Chicken Burrito - $11.99 on the menu but $14.99 on the bill.

    This place was busy even on an off night before 6pm and I can see why. The food is excellent and the service was outstanding.

In the 1.5 years since, it's still the place I most often come back to in Hendersonville, despite sampling the food and beer at basically every place in town! I love the ambiance of the old converted gas station, the fact that you can sit inside or outside (and on chilly days, they don't skimp on the heaters) and the carousel of great food trucks that are always there. I love that you're not limited to one brewery's offerings, and instead have options from local NC establishments to interesting brews from all over the country. The bartenders know their regulars and are absolutely awesome, and I LOVE that I can take my pup, take my family, take my laptop---whatever the circumstances, Blue Ridge Beer Garden is the place to be. ALSO, it should be noted that in sleepy Hendo (where some restaurants close as early as 8 pm--why??), Blue Ridge Beer Garden is blessedly open till 10.

The beer tenders were friendly and knowledgeable about the beers. There's a little indoor seating, more seating in a secondary area with pull down canvas sides and then several tables on artificial turf for nice sunny days when you want to be completely outside. They have a wide variety of local food trucks on a rotating basis parked in a slot right next to the bar and dining tables. They are close to downtown Hendersonville without being right on the main road, which makes parking and access easier.

    Out of all the breweries we hit on this trip, this one takes the crown!…read more From the minute we walked in and saw them making Jell-O shots, I knew this wasn't just a brewery, it was a party brewery. The kind of place where you stop in for "just one" and suddenly realize the sun has set and you've somehow made three new friends... aka my favorite kind of brewery! I wish we could've stayed for the live music because the stage setup looked awesome, complete with disco balls and plenty of Instagram-worthy areas for pictures and boomerangs (yes, I'm a millennial and I'm sticking with it)! The beers were excellent, and it became clear pretty quickly that this brewery is woven into the fabric of the town. Their brews popped up at several restaurants we visited, and after stopping in, I totally understand why they're so well-loved in the area. The space is huge, with high ceilings and plenty of room to spread out. There's even an outdoor area built out along the sidewalk--probably a COVID addition that was too good to take away. The vibe was laid-back and welcoming. Service at the bar could've been a bit more attentive, but everyone was friendly and chill, so it never bothered us. And my favorite moment? Watching a grandpa-aged regular stroll in with his own paper plate "poor man's charcuterie board." I absolutely loved it. That's the kind of place this is, a spot where regulars feel at home and newcomers instantly want to become regulars! No food that I could tell, but honestly, with great beer, good vibes, live music, disco balls, and Jell-O shots, who needs much else?! If you're brewery hopping around town, make sure this one is on your list. It was our favorite stop, and I'd happily spend an entire afternoon getting lost here. Also, not sure if the Jell-O shots are a staple or not so don't be sad if they aren't there, I didn't asked, just vibed lol

They have a ton of space inside with a pretty decent size stage and a couple of tables outside. Also dog friendly which was nice (more so I could pet them) I really liked the melt, for a hazy, it had good mix of slight citrus and hop. Easy to drink, the Love Henson and Soft Focus were good too, but one of them kind of tasted like weed at the beginning but then grows on you. We came on a Sunday, where there was live music. Very nice place to chill and has good vibes.

It was a fabulous choice because it's a nice location. A converted garage complete with the sliding bay doors and inside, a big open space with lots of seating. There was a three-piece rock band blasting away loudly and many folks seemed to be enjoying it. In the back room with my laptop, a much more tolerable volume. On their internet and drinking a "425 Pils", it was a pleasant evening and then back to the campervan for the night. Inside and outside seating. The patio looked great and folks were out there with kids and dogs. A delight. Oh, and by the way, the beer holder in the men's room? Genius.

All…read morethe beers I tried were great, especially nice were the Mud Creek Milk Stout and the Brown Ale. The cherry Vanilla Milk Stout was good but a little too sweet for me. First time I ever tried a sour or fruity beer and they, Rhubarb Strawberry Blonde and the Milk Shake Blueberry Mango sour, were both very good and not too sweet. Friendly bartender and locals, good conversation. The second night was trivia, I didn't do very well but it was fun. I think the best thing about the place, though, is the owner lets RVs stay overnight. Because of this I was able to experience a couple of the local restaurants, the ones I enjoyed I left reviews on their sites. Evan is really doing a community service letting RVs stay so they can experience more in Hendersonville than just one night at his brewery.
