I was happy to hear they offered karaoke too so my friend & I put our name down for a duet (the iconic HSM, "Breaking Free"). Upon coming to the bar, there were a few other groups but it wasn't crowded yet. It was about 30 minutes later, and several more people had come to the bar now. My friend went up to ask the guy (leading the karaoke) a question. At this point he tells her: "well, I already played your chosen song an hour ago...and it's the same crowd, so...". There wasn't a conclusion if he was asking us to choose another song or if he was just giving his personal opinion. We also simply disagreed that it was the same crowd as an hour ago, and also I didn't realize there was a rule about playing the same song per hour? Given there wasn't a conclusion from the conversation, my friend & I decided to keep our chosen song since we were looking forward to singing it. 10 more minutes passed and we were next in line. My group came up to the stage to get ready for when we were called. But then, we were skipped! The audacity! Someone else from my group went up to address why we were skipped. He said "I just won't play that song!". Honestly I'm wondering if he just had a personal issue with that song lol. Like bro just play it for three minutes and make the customers happy? Since we were upset about his power trip, we took our buisness to Redwing. I am happy we made this move. I will say, the drink pitchers are worth the money & the bartender was nice.

They also offer a great happy hour special Tuesday through Friday with $5 off pizzas. I don't remember the exact hours, so you'll want to check those before visiting.

It's dog friendly and great for groups to still feel intimate with standing areas, barrel table tops and picnic style tables.

We ordered two drinks (not pictured), but I had a hard kombucha or cider that was made by the taproom and very delicious. We ordered the chicken wings and spicy tuna melt with sweet potato fries.

Long story ahead but I really hope management uses it to improve because this just wasn't okay. Short story -- 40ish minutes to get a drink, 2 hours to get the wrong order, server totally ignored us after our 3rd attempt to order the same things. Skip it and go somewhere else. The man at the door was great and had me and my friend seated right away - we shared a table with strangers but that was just the way it was and no problem at all. Server came up and took our orders - couple beers and some burgers and sliders. He was a bit frazzled from how busy it was but that's to be expected, again no big deal. 20 minutes later he checked on everyone at our table. We hadn't received anything, so we reminded him of our orders. Said the kitchen was backed up - fair. Reminded him of the beer orders. 10-15 mins later, a runner came by to drop off beers - got snarky when we said none of them were ours despite us apparently being the right table number. So be it. Wait continued. Another 10-15 later, server comes back to check on us. Told him we still hadn't gotten anything. Reminded him of our orders, he said that he missed the beer order earlier and one of the food orders. We reordered and simplified the order. 3 beers, burger, and sliders. 20 mins later, beers show. Just 2 but whatever, we accepted it. He also brought water (first time bringing them). No food. Kitchen still backed up apparently. Reminded him again of our food orders. 30 mins later, still no food. No other beers. No new orders taken. He actively started ignoring us at this point. Literally talking to the rest of the table but not myself and my friend. Others around us getting food and drinks, even those who came in way after us. 10-15 later, he comes up with the wrong burger order. Rejected it. No word on the other food order. After this point we were very literally ignored the rest of the game. He took orders and shared bills with the rest of the table but not us. Not even a look. Friend went to another server to just ask to pay for the beers after the game. Server had to pass it back to him to get us that. He AGAIN tried to ignore my friend and pass a check to another table and my friend had to call him out. End of the day - no food, 4 beers, and truly the worst service ever. I've never been ignored like that. We didn't complain once during the whole event, we were nice and kindly reminded him of the orders but no stress over delays with the kitchen. The reality was that he just didn't put our stuff in (which he admitted about the food on the 3rd or 4th check in) but no apologies, just no eye contact. It's one thing to be busy, it's another to repeatedly not take an order and then act like nothing was wrong AND ignore patrons with NO apologies. Truly bummed about my experience here and cannot recommend it to anyone else. Maybe hit the bar or get one of the actual waitresses if you can. Otherwise, avoid avoid avoid.

Pros: this restaurant is a pizza shop and a brewery at the same time which is great for those who want to have a great selection of drinks and food simultaneously.

The beer is also a great selection which is common throughout the North Park beer co locations. Bathroom heater, nice and service here is even better. Cons: the biggest con here is trying to find some sort of parking nearby. The best way to find parking is to go to any other side streets nearby and try to find street parking. There's a small parking garage that would most likely feel pretty quickly next to the main patio area, but I don't know if this is strictly for North Park or for another nearby business since I did not park there, but I saw that that was an option.

Parking was very easy in this plaza. The inside was divided into two dining areas along with countertop seating at the bar. I visited recently while there was a FIFA match being broadcast which resulted in one side of the place being full because of the TV screens. The food menu was comprised of two different sheets. One listed the three types of pizza slices at $4 or $5 apiece. The other featured whole 12" pizzas, salads, wings, fries, tenders, and chicken sandwiches. Six different kinds of draft beer were available for those who wanted to imbibe. I sat at a countertop adjacent to the pizza making station and oven. The sandwiches were available as parmesan or cutlet for $12 each. I chose the cutlet along with a side of fries. The thin chicken breast was dressed with lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise on a grilled flatbread wrap. A dill pickle wedge, jalapeno peppers, and a cup of dressing were provided on the side. The crispy fries came in a separate wax paper lined basket with a cup of ranch dressing for dipping. The sandwich was alright as I was given the option for even more toppings, but I decided to stick with the basics. I'm unsure if the menu will be expanded as the business has not been open for long. I am hopeful that will happen because the potential is there. The service from the staff was pleasant. I gave a rating between three and four stars for this initial dining experience at Midway Social.
