A brewery with a Filipino inspired menu, I'm in! This was the perfect spot to relax and spend time outside on the patio. Their menu often changes but consistently includes pretzel bites, wings, salad, burgers, sandwiches (and a banh mi), and big plates. Pork Lumpia $14 - Tasty filling and beautifully wrapped. Pork Adobo Bowl $22 - Good flavors and variety in this bowl. I was sad to have missed the ube flavored beer, but the strawberry whip I tried was interesting. They have their own parking lot which can get packed at peak times. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2026 read more

Idk but my White American husband eats meat (I am a Hindu Vegan from India) How could I forget my Eddie says they are the best Cheese Curds of his life but the ones at Culver's drive-thru he likes better for the convenience and low prices Well Phase Three Brewing Company has something for everyone (IEd happens to love a very stiff German on-tap beer Ed loves basically everything there I am a tiny harmless vegan and they have so-so skin on fries that are a waste of a perfectly good potato However they make MEAN Bavarian authentic pretzels (cheese sauce available) with Actual Kosher giant grains of Salt Served for a mere $7 and I get really full on bread so easily 3 whole of these pretzels with so much to eat for tiny me - I can barely get down part of one and I take the others home to freeze when I get a hankering This review is all based on their "Happy Hour which interferes with my work schedule We would NEVER pay their no-Happy Hour prices They are far too expensive This is essentially a place for deep-fried food lovers (onion rings, Cheese Curds, French Fries Limpia etc) Good as a treat but NOBODY wants this all the time read more

Phase Three in Elmhurst is a fun spot with a lovely selection of beer and a great food menu. It may have been downpouring like the great flood when we showed up, but our spirits were brightened by the beers. True Colors: A Hazy IPA hopped with a double dry hop of all New Zealand hops including Nectaron, Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Wai-iti. Muon Juice: A Hazy Double IPA in collaboration with Equilibrium hopped with Citra, Eclipse, Motueka, and Krush. Cross Pollination: A Hazy Double IPA in collaboration with Standard Meader hopped with Citra and a kiss of Orange Blossom Honey. Double Nectar Guava // Mango // Pineapple: A Smoothie Style Sour with Pineapple, Mango, and Guava. We then enjoyed a couple appetizers and split a main dish. For apps we went with the Garlicky Cheese Curds that were pleasantly spiced served with a delectable Black Pepper Buttermilk Ranch, and the P3 Crispy Buffalo Wings. The main we split was the Bahn Mi that was stuffed with pickled veggies and Pork. __________ read more

I always enjoy supporting local restaurants, and this Asian fusion restaurant did not disappoint. Convenient parking lot next to the restaurant. Our server, Maddie was so fun, energetic, helpful, and very accommodating. It was a nice touch that the manager came to check on us and offered a taste test of their stouts; Eunoia Batch 21 and What Could Be 35. So good!! Phase Three Brewery Company in Elmhurst, a must-visit for anyone who appreciates unique, well-crafted beers. Their house brews paired perfectly with the food and are worth the visit on their own. I had the Day Drift, Blood Orange, Calamansi, so refreshing!! I should have ordered the 16 ounces!! The Shanghai Lumpia was delicious, crispy, golden, and packed with flavor. The Duck Corn Dogs were another standout, perfectly cooked, tender and moist. The banana ketchup added a layer of flavor. I originally came for the adobo, but unfortunately they had already sold out. Instead, I ordered the Double Dip Korean Style Fried Chicken Sandwich, and I'm glad I did! The chicken breast was incredibly tender, juicy, and savory--absolutely delicious. To finish, I had the Ube Cheesecake. Rich, creamy, and wonderfully decadent without being overwhelming. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back for that adobo I missed and, of course, to enjoy a few more of those amazing craft beers. read more

We have been to Phase 3 : Elmhurst several times and we love it! The first time we visited, it was just for beers. The beers were excellent, and the food looked and smelled so good that we vowed to come back! We've been back twice now and loved it each time! You can't go wrong with their beers! Their flagships are solid and they always have a healthy number of experimental brews. Best of all the worlds! This time we both got IPAS and loved them all: Trail Trip, West Coast Pixel, and Swells! Trail Trip was my favorite because I prefer non-hazy. For dinner I got the double-dipped fried chicken sandwich with a side of fries. YUM! Bursting with flavor and deliciousness! The spicy gochujang sauce is divine! And super filling! My husband did the OG Burger, Fries, and 10 oz beer for $15 Monday/Tuesday deal. He loved the food, drink, and the deal! The space is so clean, open, and inviting. The front dinning area is spacious enough with plenty of seating and the bar, but there is also a fantastic outdoor space. The servers will all friendly, helpful, and professional. Things can move a little slowly, but it is worth the wait! On busy weekend nights, they do have online reservations, so that can be a good way to secure a spot! Next time we are in Elmhurst, we will definitely be back. We love Phase 3! read more

We stopped for lunch. The restaurant was quiet enough to hold a table conversation. Our server, Lucy B, was pleasant and provided great table service. They have a nice menu selection, including some Filipino inspired dishes, drinks and desserts. We were satisfied with all of our choices. Everything was tasty and served at the right temperatures. This restaurant and bar would definitely be worth a return visit. read more

When a local brewery levels up into a full dining experience, Phase Three Brewing Company in Elmhurst absolutely delivers. I've been to their smaller taproom in Lake Zurich, so I knew the beer was good--but the Elmhurst location is a whole different animal. It's a proper brewery-restaurant hybrid with real energy. We went on a Friday night, and while parking can get tight since it's shared with nearby spots, there's plenty available if you're willing to loop around a bit. You can grab a table, but sitting at the bar is the move. It's perfect for working through tasters and chatting with the staff. Beer * Exceptional stouts, porters, and barleywines--rich, complex, and clearly a specialty * Collaborations (including with Old Irving) are impressive * IPAs lean more West Coast--resiny and hop-forward; less hazy/soft, more bold and bitter * Overall: high-quality brewing across styles Food * Pork Lumpia - spot on; crisp, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a Filipino classic * French Onion Smash Burger - standout; caramelized onion flavor woven throughout with melted cheese and perfectly cooked patties. Absolute hit with fries What surprised me most was the kitchen. This isn't "brewpub food." It's thoughtfully executed American fare mixed with strong Asian/Filipino influences that actually hold up. Vibe * Lively but not chaotic * Great for conversation, groups, or casual date nights * Easygoing atmosphere without sacrificing quality Verdict Phase Three Elmhurst nails the full package: serious beer program, legitimately good food, and a comfortable, well-run space. It's the kind of spot you can settle into for hours without feeling rushed. Easy five stars. read more

So, I have a long standing relationship with Oscar's, Doc Ryan's, Victory Tap. Stopped for a drink and to my surprise; not open on Monday or Tuesday. Unthinkable - it was always a 7 day a week enterprise. One door down in the old bike shop location is the Phase Three Tap Room. There were three of us in there on a Monday evening. Had a Barleywine - strong and sweet. It was my first time here. It's cozy and interesting. I will have to return and try something else. read more

Today, we weee driving around and stumbled across P3 Brewing company. Initially, the place looks trendy and pleasant. We entered and were immediately sat by the friendly hostess and given menus and water. After about 5 minutes our server came by. This is where the whole experience went south. She greeted us, and we asked her what her favorites were on the menu. She literally refused to give recommendations because she kept awkwardly hiding behind.... Everyone has their own tastes. We ask this almost every new restaurant we go to and get the server recommendations. After awhile, I decided on their original smashburger with no cheese and subbed salad for the fries. My wife got the Longanisa Chopped Cheese and fries. She also went with the P3 Japanese Rice Lager. My burger was salty and greasy, but feasted ok. They literally put a trace of their "spicy P3 sauce" on it, but it was basically a dry burger. The salad was outstanding and vinaigrette dressing was fantastic. Her Longanisa tasted good but the sauce on the sandwich was very watery and was literally glowing off the back end of the sandwich. Very weird. The Rice Lager didn't taste good at all. To me, it tasted like Old Style. I'm not exaggerating. When it came time to settle the check, we told the server that we signed up for the rewards and had small credit we wanted to apply. She told us oh, it will come off automatically when you pay your check. It made no sense. So I gave my credit card, and the bill got paid... no discount applied. I mentioned it to her but told her don't worry about it. We can use it next time. She argued with us and insisted she go figure out why it didn't apply. After telling her twice don't worry about it came more about her wanting to know than helping us. We just walked out and went home. I was only asked for a refill once, at the end of the meal, was almost out of drink half the lunch. The server just was not listening to the customer. It's not hard to figure out why discount wouldn't automatically apply to the bill when the website and the point of purchase are 2 separate formats. Overall the food was ok, 3.5 stars, the service... 1 star. Your money and time can be spent better elsewhere. read more

Nice brewery option in Elmhurst with good beer selection and even better food which is not typical of all breweries. We tried the parmesan truffle fries and longanisa egg rolls for starters, and a burger and banh mi for mains. Service was friendly and the place filled up quickly for lunch. read more

My husband and I came on a date night, we sat outside and enjoyed the last of the nice weather. The host sat us and shortly after our server came around asking about drinks. I got the fruit beer and it was excellent flavor. My husband did 4 tastings. We got the garlicky cheese curds, Cobb salad and Original smashburger. The smash burgers were so tender they fell apart in your mouth. The cob salad was refreshing. I love trying foods that are unique and they did a very good job on every dish. Well done Phase Three. Would return! read more

Awesome local find while I was traveling for work. Sat at the bar and had the double dipped chicken sandwich an two pints. The first pint was a hazy called Pixel - smooth and drinkable. The second was called soft skies. This one is the best hazy I have ever had - 5 If you are ever in the area, I highly recommend! read more

The food was so good here! We came in to try out a few beers and grab dinner, and I was very happy with the food. The mushroom risotto was super creamy and full of flavor- I would definitely order it again! The pretzel seemed a little stale so I wasn't very into that dish but it may have just been fluke from sitting out too long before being delivered. The staff is really friendly and the bartenders are helpful when picking out beers to try! The whole restaurant is set up really nicely with a front room and back bar area. Doesn't feel like a typical brewery! read more

I highly anticipated this visit because this is my most favorite brewery and I just so happened to Yelp restaurants when I was randomly at Safari Land and this popped up. Upon coming here with my nephew and my son, we had an amazing meal our Madi was the best and made the experience even better! She gave great suggestions and was on the spot. We got to sit outside in the sunshine on their patio area. With the glass floor to ceiling walls made you feel like you could be inside or out read more

Second time here. Both times quick and friendly service. Food is way better than you deserve for a brewery and the beer selection has a nice spread of styles. The pepper and egg sandwich should be sold in a cart in front of that place with people lined up like Maxwell st. It's that good. Top 5 in the west burbs. read more

Our party of 3 had a nice pub dinner and catchup session here.  I'll go with 4.49 stars with the only modest knock that the place is a bit on the pricey side.  It wasn't too busy at 5:30pm on a Tuesday night, and that was nice, but it did get more boisterous and crowded as Trivia Night started at about 7pm. I did personally like that their beer menu was heavy on the IPA selections and I saw 10 of them (!) on their online menu and ended up having 3 delicious IPA's during our outing.  Each went for $8.50 for a 16 oz serving. I personally tried their: - Snow Pants hazy IPA, 7.9% ABV - F-Stop IPA, 7.5% ABV - Trio of Stars hazy IPA, 7.7% ABV RJ was our friendly and knowledgeable server, and I actually went with his suggestions on all 3 IPA's and I really enjoyed every one of them.  Thank you RJ! For food, I had the following and as usual we split the appetizers: - Bavarian pretzels, $7 Happy Hour 1/2 price - Garlicky cheese curds, $7 Happy Hour 1/2 price - OG burger with fries, $18 One colleague also had an OG burger and another had the Smoky Ghost burger and he said it was quite spicy.  I enjoyed my greasy and delicious OG burger with my beers. The pre-tip bill per person was $47.44.  The price of a beer and burger outing keeps going up on us, but they are always fun and delicious and so be it.  This place is a great venue for such.  Their food menu has some Filipino influences, but we didn't go for any of those dishes.  Their beer quality is top notch and I wouldn't be surprised if I liked all of their beers.  My colleagues also really enjoyed their Proper Trollied English malt blend (3.9% ABV and $6.50 for 20 oz).  They also have convenient parking off to the side and to the rear of the restaurant.  Great pub, and thank you! read more

Surprised I haven't reviewed Phase 3 yet. I've been here several times now. Last time I was here we stopped at 93 Octane prior. I enjoyed their Lulz Seltzer collection. The bushel of apples is good, too. We didn't have any food, just sat at the bar. The staff is friendly, and the food did look really good. Maybe we'll eat next time we're here. read more

The honey butter fries are excellent. That came with the tocino bhan mi, a large portion. The marinated sweet meat is very similar to the Vietnamese one with a slight Filipino twist recommended. The pork lumpia is standard fare meaning it's good. I'm Filipino it has my seal of approval. This is a brewery and they have a lot of those - we just didn't have one tonight. read more

3.6 stars. Great service. The food was just okay. Was excited to try this place out due to the prior yelp reviews about different Filipino food options but there were just okay and not too great as it wasn't that flavorful. I thought they would have had the halo halo, from the pictures but that was a limited time. The cheese curds were tasty. Lumpia, small but like any others. The banh mi my friend had not good it was underwhelming. The ambiance was bright and nice! The beer was good. Parking is either behind the building or street. read more

I do enjoy drinking beer from Phase Three. The hummingbird has always gotten me The stouts continue to pull me in. I did try food here but unfortunately took no pictures of it. But we did order the Crispy Wings with the sweet and spicy banana dipping sauce, pork lumpia, corn ribs and the Green Chili Smash Burger. All of it was tasty and I'd get that all over again. That smash burger smashed! For our drink libations we got the Geo Ale, P3 Pils, Interception Stout, Pecan Pie Interception Stout, and the Lulz Cinnamon Apple. All tasty, crushable and delicious. That pecan pie was sweet, with a thick viscosity that coated your tongue. It was a banger! The beer tenders are friendly and the atmosphere has a little hum to it. Definitely coming back and going to the other location. read more

My favorite brewery. All their double dry hopped hazy ipa's are delicious. They're all similar in taste but that's fine. There isn't much sediment at the bottom of the glass and you can enjoy 2-3 and not get a headache the next day. Food was solid. Cheese curds and chili were really good. I got the wings which were too big and had too much crispy breading on them imo, plus the Asian bbq sauce the bartender said had a "good kick" was very bland. But like I said, the beer is amazing! Highly recommend picking some up read more

My friends and I attended this location and had the worst experience. We got seated immediately but then no service for over 10min. Then ordered drinks and all the beers didn't come out. We ended having a couple rounds of beers, could have more if there was better service. read more

Just a quick update. We've now been to P3 Elmhurst several times since our first visit during their inaugural month. Even though we live in the city, it's always a dinner destination in the back of our minds, not so much for the beer (which remains good), but because of the unique food options that, oddly enough, don't exist under one roof in the city. The food options remain stellar, constantly changing with the seasons and always being improved. A great example is the outstanding Ahi Tuna Sandwich, which went from being a regular sandwich to something close to a lobster roll except with fresh, raw tuna. An absolute stunner, I would get this once a week if I didn't live an hour away. Also excellent were the shrimp spring rolls, a very nice portion of shrimp, rice, and assorted veggies, flavorful with great crunch in every bite. We split these, but honestly, they'd work as a main. The execution remains great, easily the best brewery food in the Chicago area, and truly food that would stand alone against "regular" restaurants. While I remained feeling that P3 was a 4.5 and not a 5, largely due to mediocre service and a lack of a vibe, I have to downgrade to a 4 after our most recent, and perhaps final, visit. My wife is a strict vegetarian and I am a pescatarian (who very infrequently will order a chicken parm or something when out). In the past, P3 has always had wonderful vegetarian options - it's one of the reasons we always consider it, even when it's quite a haul to get to. However, on this recent visit, we were informed that they were out of tofu, which severely limited our options (out went the vegan bahn mi and potentially subbing tofu for a protein). We were going to split the couscous salad (subbing tofu for prosciutto), so it was back to the drawing board. Well, ok, maybe we'll split the salad w/o the prosciutto and get the Fiesta Crunch Burger with a veggie patty. Done. Except...three minutes later, our server returns to let us know they don't do meatless patties anymore. Which...what?! So my wife gets the couscous salad, which was very good (I went with the aforementioned Ahi Tuna which was tremendous). But, without the prosciutto on the salad, and with no substitute option, why am I still paying $18? Especially when no effort was made to accommodate us. I've worked in the industry in the past - what a perfect time to offer a side of fries or a free beer on the house. Nope. Look, we really enjoyed our food as we always have. But, that's really, really rough when you have no protein option available for a vegetarian. And hey, kitchens run out of stuff, but you chose to not stock veggie patties. Maybe they weren't selling, maybe they changed vendors, I don't know. But, it just kind of sucked to be honest, especially when P3 had become a place to rely on for such options. Despite loving my meal, and having supported this brewery and restaurant from the very, very beginning, with these changes and lack of "making up" for being out of so many of their vegetarian options, I'm really not sure it P3 Elmhurst remains even a back-of-mind option for us in the future. read more

We went with with kids, my mom and brother. I wish I snapped a few more photos. We got a few appetizers: pretzels, lumpia and fries. All were delicious! My kids did wish there was cheese dip for the pretzels. My husband got the tocino banh mi and I got the steak frites. I could've used more chimmichuri sauce but kept forgetting to ask. My mom got the bistek Don and enjoyed her meal. I took a bite and enjoyed the seasoning of the bistek. read more

If you're Elmhurst, do yourself a favor and visit Phase Three Brewing Company. There's parking available in the back. Whether you come here for the drinks or the food, you'll be treated to a delicious menu of options. I love a good brewery that serves up some good food to pair with their beer and cocktails. Phase Three serves up Filipino-inspired dishes that are sure to please. Yes, there are burgers here. Don't be afraid to try the Asian stuff. It's really good! The lechon kawali is a good place to start for pork belly fans, and they even have Korean fried chicken here. The pancit palabok has loads of noodles and flavor. I liked the lemongrass coconut cod. It was a large cut of fish and the coconut broth was simple but delicious. I haven't even gotten to the beers, which rotates seasonally so check out what you can because it may not be there tomorrow! If you really like something, Phase Three sells individual cans and even packs to go. Score! What a nice place to go out with family and friends. I loved the diversity of food and drinks here. read more

Was really hoping to try out some barleywines their website had but was bummed they were out of the few things I wanted. The space is really nice and gives off a "trendy" vibe. I think it'd be a good spot for lunch meetings or a date. The staff was really nice and happily answered our questions. The beer was fantastic. We tried both ends of the spectrum; some barreled stouts and a pilsner to end on. All were really well balanced and I couldn't really find anything wrong about them. The food was just "ok", though. The Ube Butter jumped out at me on the menu but it just tasted like normal whipped butter tinted purple. Needed more salt, I think. The pandesal itself was good but nothing special. Don't think I'd get it again without a more interesting butter or jam. The lumpia were pretty good but expensive for how small they are. Given all the other spots in the city to get all sorts of them I don't think I'd order it again, either. Overall if I'm looking for great beer with a snack to split with someone, this is a great spot. If looking for food with a beer I might head elsewhere. Tons of brewpubs in town; granted not as easily accessible by car. read more

P3 is not only a local brewing company they also offer Filipino inspired food options. This establishment has indoor and outdoor seating and can sit about 80-100 people. It is a casual yet upscale spot. My fiance and I were here on a weekend and figured since we were going after the lunch rush it would be fairly empty, NOPE! It was packed and I loved to see it. Although P3 was very busy we were able to snag a table within minutes. Staff members were nice, friendly and the perfect amount of attentive. Our server gave us her personal recommendations which I really appreciated. Getting drinks was very fast, literally within minutes of ordering drinks we received them. Food took a bit of time which we expected since it was very busy. There is a beer here for everyone. My favorite was their pressed: maple. It was smooth and delicious. As a Filipina I had low expectations for the food since I'm bias to home cooked meals however I was blown away. I really enjoyed their take of lechon and sisig. They were crafted very well and full of flavor. read more

My wife and I have come to this location several times. We love that they have a back patio with lots of shade; perfect for hot summer days. We always see lots of families with small children. There is parking in the rear and street parking out front. As far as service, I find that our servers always do a great job of returning about midway through our drinks and we don't have to wait long to order, even when they are on the busier side. The restaurant does a good job of rotating some entrees, so there is always something new to try. The latest trip we had the burger of the month (jalapeño, steak, and goat cheese burger) and the Baja fish tacos. I don't think we've had a bad dish or bad beer. Their beer is some of the best in the area if you are in to hazy IPAs or sours. I can't speak to the other styles at we typically stick to those styles. If you're ever in the area, you wont be disappointed.. read more

A friend recommended Phase Three when I was looking for places to take my dad out on his birthday. The food and drink are good but the service was lacking. I'm not a fan of their wait list system for dine in. Regardless, I put my name on their list in the hopes of getting seated promptly. When it came time for the app to let us know our table was ready, it appeared they were not ready for us upon arrival as we were held back an additional 20 minutes prior to seating. There were three empty tables in the first 10 minutes of waiting which was irritating. I don't understand why it would take this long to get settled in. We got a booth for 4 and ordered drinks. My husband ordered the Double Strawberry Chantilly draft and I got their Old Fashioned. Their food and drinks were fantastic and we enjoyed them a lot. The BBQ wing appetizer was the best dish we had. Big meaty wings full of flavor with good sauce. Almost all dishes were solid however my Beef Sisig would've been better had the meat not been overcooked. We would return in the summer. I'm just hoping they will do away with the wait list and improve on efficiency. read more
