Bun was burnt to a crisp. Philly tasted like rotten meat. Took forever to get the sandwich's. Real dive bar

Freaking awesome. Great place to enjoy a picnic table with the dog or inside in the air con (sans…read moredog). Easy,free parking. We are an hour away but we want everything on the menu. Loved the peach beer myself (just the one) and my spouse enjoy his 3 ipa's. Met good patrons, which always tells me about a place. Pickle pizza hit the spot! And to make it 100% id suggest adding Sriracha or ranch drizzle? It needed just one *something.* but also totally brilliant without.

I stopped by here a number of weekends ago now with my wife for lunch and some drinks. We had been…read morelooking for a brewery in Erie to visit after the Erie Marathon whenever Lavery Brewing popped up on Yelp. This place is large and has both outdoor seating on the side as well as plenty of indoor seating. The inside looked like a mix of cozy and industrial, with a long wooden bar stretching the length of the room, warm pendant lights hanging overhead, colorful beer boards on the wall, and shelves lined with bottles and glassware behind the bar. It had a relaxed but lively feel to it. After looking around to figure out where we wanted to sit, we ultimately chose the bar. For lunch on this day I chose to go with the pimento smash deluxxxe while my wife went with the pesto pizza. The menu described my meal as two smash patties, bacon, American cheese, pimento cheese, and onion rings on a brioche bun while my wife's was described as parsley basil pesto, triple cheese blend, fire roasted tomatoes with a balsamic glaze. I thought that the burger here was delicious as the patties were seasoned nicely and I appreciated the onion rings. While there was plenty of cheese and it was flavorful, I almost could have used more of the pimento. Then my wife liked her pizza here especially the pesto combined with the fire roasted tomatoes. Then for drinks, as I often do whenever I visit a new brewery, I decided to go with a flight here. At Lavery Brewing, a flight consists of 6 beers and I chose the Active Recovery, Seeking Clarity, Lime n Cuke, Throwing Tropical Shade, Sound Mild, and Divine Intervention for my flight. I first started with the Active Recovery which was light and hoppy and very drinkable. Up second was the Seeking Clarity which had a clean start before a heavy dose of hops in the middle which surprisingly didn't linger. Third was the Lime n Cuke which has a strong cucumber smell and the drink itself is dry like most goses with a mild lime and stronger cucumber flavor. Fourth was Throwing Tropical Shade and you could really taste the orange and other tropical flavors with a finish flavor of coconut. For me this was a really delicious beer. Up fifth was the Sound Mild which was light but you got the nice flavor of those toasted malts at the finish. Last but certainly not least was the Divine Intervention which had a strong coconut flavor on the finish. Out of the bunch my favorite ended up being the Throwing Tropical Shade. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My wife and I both enjoyed the beverages and the food and we left both happy and stuffed.

The complimentary birthday dessert topped with a sparkler candle was such a fun surprise and really took the celebration over the top. Glad I got to experience this restaurant with my friends.

May want to invest in thivker blinds because sun was blinding table next to us. Couldn't decide between the bisque and deviled eggs. Had the bisque which has a tomato base - DELICIOUS even on a hot day. Took the deviled eggs to go for breakfast tomorrow. Had the chicken picata with capers. The picky eater picked out the capers. I had the seafood trio: scallops, lobster tail, & crab stuffed shrimp. It was accompanied by basmati rice, carrots, & asparagus. I wish when I cook my basmati rice turned out that perfect. The waffle sundae closed out the dinner with carmel & chocolate sauce, whipped cream, ice cream ... and picky eater held the fresh seasonal berries. Parking vouchers were included with the bill. Very nice meal. Not rushed. Beautiful view. Ask for Laitin - She maes great recommendations.

We came to Rum Runners for my mom's 70th birthday lunch and were very pleasantly surprised. The…read moreservice was fantastic, and the food was excellent from start to finish. A really good lunch spot. Our server, Katrina, was really excellent. I'd never had perch before, and I absolutely loved it. My nephew ordered the wings, which were perfectly crispy and delicious. The coconut shrimp with the piña colada sauce was such a unique combination and surprisingly amazing. We also really enjoyed the clam strips, and the homemade ranch was absolutely delicious. Our server was so friendly and personable and made the whole experience even better. The atmosphere had that relaxed, slightly divey beach bar feel in the best possible way. For seafood, the prices were very reasonable. We truly enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back the next time we're in the area.

We headed on over to Rum Runners. Great location on the water. Awesome sunset. Decent offering of beer. The perch sandwich was average, but the cheesesteak was a crime scene. Grill burn bits all throughout the sandwich which provided a very foul taste. The server did ask my wife how it was to which she responded "it wasn't good" to which the server responded "oh, I'm sorry". That response is likely a daily occurrence for the wait staff. Bathrooms, which are right next to the kitchen, were filthy. The kitchen did not look much better. I would not recommend this place beyond a cold beer at sunset.
