​This place never disappoints! The patio is the place to be during the warmer months, and the nachos are non-negotiable--so good! First come, first surve on tables, we have had to wait before. Make sure to check their schedule for live music, as it always brings awesome energy. Inside is nice too, and we've had fun taking their brewery tour in the past, too. Highly recommend! read more

Very tasty fish fry. Fries are good and the fish has a crunchy flavorful deep fried breading. The only thing that was not good was the coleslaw. Very bland, zero taste and felt like it was sitting out for hours. read more

Phenomenal! This place truly has it all I was lucky enough to get a card for a free brew, so I decided to check this place out finally, and I was not disappointed! The vibes were immaculate, so much space! The service was exceptional with many helpful bartenders. The beer was absolutely delicious! Would recommend going here if you're in the area! read more

Great beer, great food, outstanding service! We went on a Friday and the place was jammed. No issues with the time frame, very well run organization. The overall floor plan of the place is very open, nice looking and modern. read more

This brewery checks all the boxes, great beer selection, delicious food (the pizza is a fave!), and a patio that's perfect for soaking in the sunset. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, making it an easy favorite for a casual night out. read more

It's been a while since we've been to their second location and they've expanded quite a bit! They now have shipping container type bars and game areas and plenty of patio seating. Stopped on a Friday night for dinner and they had live music so it was packed. Thankfully, we found a high top table for our group. They have similar ordering to other breweries (e.g., Eagle Park) and you can order via QR and keep your tab open and keep ordering throughout the night. It's a lot easier since you don't have to fuss with a server, wait for the check, etc. They even indicate the approximate wait time for food so it was nice for planning apps and dinner. Pretty quick service from time of ordering and they have water stations to grab your own water as needed. The parking is limited since they use a lot of their lot for patio seating but you can park on the surrounding streets. Nice bathrooms with plenty of supplies for ladies. Great touch! Will be back. read more

Stopped in for a beer and diner after a hike around Waukesha. Nice clean, comfortable, modern interior. I enjoyed my Naked Threesome IPA. My Mello Rillo wasn't as good; described as lighter but not for me. My wife enjoyed her Black Walnut Imperial Stout and Six Stone Scotch Ale. We relaxed with our beers and played some cribbage, then ordered food by scanning our table code. We both ordered the grilled chicken, bacon and avocado sandwich with fries. They were brought to our table fairly quickly. They were very good, with a nice serving of chicken, thick cut bacon, avocado, lettuce and tomato on toasted bread. The fries were warm, lightly seasoned and crispy. Very please overall and would certainly come back. read more

Really like the aesthetic of this place. Lots of seating available inside. Beer is really good and all the servers/bartenders were wonderful. read more

Raised Grain Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Waukesha, Wisconsin

Depending on the weather, you have your choice of outdoor activities and seating or heading inside and watching TV. You can roam around and choose from all the bar seating, high tops, and barrel tables, and play whatever games you'd like. For beers, I've had their Deep Dark Secret, Black Walnut, Snakes & Spiders, and a few others. If you have nothing else, at least indulge in their fries, which are dusted with signature RG seasoning. Served with N3S beeroli and ketchup. But be warned, they go down like candy while drinking. We find ourselves ordering more or going for another menu item like a Bottoms Up Burger or French Onion Burger. You'll get some protein and another round of fries. I haven't had their pizzas, though they do great with the food, so I'm certainly willing to go for that on another trip out there. Their ceilings are high, so I find the acoustics nice; the sound doesn't echo so much that I have to yell to talk to the person next to me. It's always nice meeting other beer fans who share their experiences with things they've tried at Raised Grain. Also, don't be shy; talk to others, especially the staff! Introvert or not, take some samples of what you may be interested in before committing to that full pour. Sometimes, it makes more sense to have a flight as opposed to a full glass of something that's very flavor-forward. Always check your glasses while you're out there. Unfortunately, it is common in breweries for me to get a glass with someone else's lipstick on it from time to time. They rectified this situation right away, but just keep it in mind, if your luck is like mine. read more

Never again. Food was passable. Technology sux. Beer was cold (hence the star). Forever for food to arrive after jumping through the QR ordering hoops. Potential to be a good place, but...... read more

Being from out of town we use Yelp to help find local restaurants. Once again Yelp didn't let us down. The service was good and food was a good value. We also loved being able to order from our phone. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely be coming back! read more

Food was okay...service was rough. Seem definitely like they wanted to leave versus help you. Cheese curds were above average...but they were a bit over salty. Food took long time 45+ minutes and wanted to add to order on phone but they cancelled kitchen service mid order. Super annoying. Rest of Food was mid. Burger was charred but they never asked on how to cook so I guess charred is what it is. Had 1 pilsner that was good. Will not be returning. read more

This place is a joke. 2 hour wait for food. No customer service. Never coming back.

Food was ok. It took an hour and a half to get one of our six entrees and we had to order from our phone with very little service. The restaurant was not even full. The burger was so incredibly salty I couldn't eat it! The patty melt was incredibly salt and huge pieces of grizzle in it. The only redeeming part of the meal was the bartenders . read more

Decent bar food. Great beer options. Today, enthusiastic bartenders. Poor food service. Tacos were tasty as were sliders for kids. As usual, service delivery for food was poor. One item ordered as meal was delivered ten minutes before the rest. No silverware. One poor guy delivering for the whole place. read more

Neither my husband nor I drink but we went with Raised Grain Brewing because it was close to the park that we went to for tennis and it has a large dining section for our group of nine. Our group ordered separately by scanning the QR code at the table. My family of four tried the Birdseye Tripel cheese curds, fries, and pepperoni and mushroom pizza. The cheese curds were perfectly executed. The fries were nothing special but the highlight was the N3S beeroli that it came with. The pizza was really thin and overly salty. read more

This place is a joke! There are no waiters assigned to the tables, you have to scan the app and order on your phone after you find your own table and seat yourself or you can wait in line and order at the bar. They only have IPAs and ales. No cocktails 25 minutes after we order via an app someone came to tell us they didn't have the sliders we ordered 65 minutes after we ordered my husband went to the bar , because there is no service and no one to ask, how much longer and was told it was a 90 to 120 minute wait. We asked for a refund and got a huge hassle The place is huge and horrible loud so the ambiance sucked too read more

Black Walnut Imperial Stout: I estimate I consumed as much beer on an average Saturday in college as I do in three months these days. Occasionally I take up the opportunity to try something new though. I couldn't find a whole lot of info on the history of Raised Grain Brewing Co. What I can tell you is that it is located in Waukesha, WI, their current brewery opened in 2018, and most interestingly, the team is led by two local doctors, a professional cyclist, and a local entrepreneur. Their Black Walnut Imperial Stout is described as a complex stout with hints of vanilla and coffee supported by a dark, Belgian malty base with candy sugar. It has an IBU of 100 and an abv of 9.5%. The stout pours an opaque black with a good-sized tan head. There's a creamy feel to it and it has a medium thickness good for the winter months. Taste was mostly chocolate and coffee with just a hint of vanilla in the aftertaste. Personally, I thought this was just okay (3 stars for me), but I'm biased as I'm not a huge fan of stouts. Most beer connoisseurs will likely enjoy this (4 stars). Doughboy_Food_Reviews read more

Really enjoy this spot! It is great for visiting with friends or with kids. They are always busy but in the summer have ample seating inside and out. Their food is actually really good. We had the nachos appetizer and who puts goat cheese on nachos? No one. But I'm telling you it was crunchy creamy heaven! They do rotate various pizza flavors and those are unique as well. The beer is a nice variety and can please most palates. Fun vibes in Waukesha! read more

Raised Grain Brewing - Yum big pretzel! - Breweries Near Me - Waukesha, Wisconsin

Wasn't gonna do it, but when a place deserves it, you gotta.. Pro's: Very good beers. There were a couple clunkers on the bunch we tried, but for the most part, all the styles were done right. Good, efficient QR code ordering system. We got our drinks and food quickly, especially considering it was a Friday night. Staff handled the volume well, and was attentive if we needed anything on addition to our meals. Clean place, nice patio (though we didn't use it because it was a little cold). Cons: After our table spent at least $200 in the establishment, and after playing a dice game at our table for about an hour, the (I assume) manager walked over around 10pm and I kid you not, says "With all due respect, I'm glad you guys are having fun, but I can hear you from my office." Ok, he could hear us from his office. At 10pm.. at a brewery. And the problem with that is what, exactly? Your patrons who have had a couple drinks each, were enjoying some burgers, pizza, dippers, beer, and each others' company, and you for some reason had a problem with their "fun", at 10pm, when the place was 75% empty. We weren't swearing, we weren't using any offensive language, and we weren't being disrespectful to any of your staff. Yet the noise level was so bad that you had to scold us, instead of just saying to yourself "Wow, these people are having a good time.. I'm kind of envious.. Yeah, they're a little rowdy, but they're not hurting or offending anyone.. We're closing soon anyway, so even though their volume level might annoy me, they spent a lot of money here and I do want them to come back someday." Guess what? We were about to leave anyway, and we were about to leave as happy customers who would return again very soon based on the 3.5 hours we spent there-- except your little comment at the end canceled all of that out. Oh well, we'll return someday, but it won't be soon. read more

Nice venue with live music. Unfortunately, we got there @ 8 on Friday night and was told food wait was 120 minutes! We weren't in a hurry so decided to stay and order immediately. Not a fan of no waitress set up but I'm old school . Amazingly, my pizza (special) was delivered in less than a half hour! Crab Rangoon with great flavor but very little fish (crab.). Husband had jalapeño poppers which were "okay." read more

Raised Grain Brewing - Porter on nitro - Breweries Near Me - Waukesha, Wisconsin

For ambiance its a brewery its kinda cool i have been to more immersive places before but still interesting to see the big kegs and the fun names of the craft beer. Food was fine both of us got burgers a BYO BURGER double patty was 21$ classic onion, lettuce, pickles, and cheddar cheese. Honestly speaking its was fine, Culver's is cheeper with similar taste. There was no service other than waiters dropping food off, you have to get your own water, order for yourself on your own phone, grab your own to go box, AND cleaning up after yourself. That honestly ruined the experience for me ESPECIALLY when i went to pay my tab and they requested 20%. Definitely was a joke they are lucky I even tipped 5$. Staff was friendly when i saw them only twice. I wouldn't go back but thats just personal opinion, when I go out I don't want to have to self service almost everything. read more

What a great space! Despite its size, it's often quite busy, but in summer, the outdoor space adds a lot of real estate. It's a very family-friendly spot, with regular and "high-top" high chairs. There's often live music. Food is great, including rotating specials. We especially like the Notorious PIG and Tony Pepperoni pizzas; the fries are perfect for sharing. We really enjoy their wide variety of beer too, and they recently started carrying wine. The only issue we've had is a few SNAFUs with the QR code ordering system, but the staff is quick to help with any problems. read more

Large venue with a wide variety of beer styles and a few beers which rotate out year round. They have plenty of seating indoors, and outdoors in the summer! There's also a ton of tv screens for game days. They have a nice menu with a good variety of bar food from pizza to burgers to fish fry on Fridays. read more

The food was really good, I couldn't believe how great the burger and French fries were. I also liked the lighter beer recommendation, it was not overly hoppy at all. They were also incredibly busy and the staff stayed busy. I was also really impressed with how clean everything was. I thought I was walking into a brand-new building but apparently it's been there for several years now. Very well maintained. Thank you for such a great first time experience! read more

We went on New Year's Eve. The kitchen was closed, we didnt know this and tried to order. They just let us walk in sit down and stare at a menu for 15 minutes. Horrible customer service! read more

Quick service! Great pizza! Stellar beer! Nice outdoor space in the summer. Parking can be a challenge.

Still great food, still great beer, even more space! It's ben fun to see the outside space grow and to add screens and a bar for the summer. Popping in to provide this update to repeat that this is one of my favorite spots to meet for lunch and a hang out. read more

This place is huge inside and you can see where they brew the actual beer. We went at 3pm on a Saturday and it already add a lot of people but their was a baseball game going on. We ended up getting a flight of beer which is always nice because you can sample lots of things if you're not a regular. I like that they also add pretzels. We ended up eating here and the food was great. I would go back just for the food. I do wish they had people coming around to check up more. Someone dropped off our food and we never had someone stop again. If we needed anything like napkins or ketchup we had to go to the bar. And then their was confusion on it we just leave the table or if we take our trays somewhere because they had 2 trash cans we could see. Overall a nice experience. read more

Stopped here w our girls soccer team and I have to say, well worth it. The atmosphere is great. The service is awesome. You order through your phone not a waiter. The beers are really good. The naked threesome was really good. The wings were tasty. Everyone loved their burgers which were plentiful. The fries were good. The pork tacos were phenomenal. read more

This is my first one star review EVER... We showed up here after a tournament at 8:00 on a Saturday. They were out of (and I'm NOT exaggerating) ALL burgers and handhelds minus the Cuban (this is like 10 sandwiches) , the pulled pork, the nachos, the pretzel, the wings...when he told us what we COULD order it was pizza and cheese curds...out of a menu of 40 items....pizza and cheese curds... read more

I met my family here on a Saturday afternoon for some beers and food. I really like the space, it's open and huge. You can order from your phone at your table or up at the bar. As far as food, I wish they had more vegetarian options other than fries, garlic bread and nachos but they do rotate menu items daily for specials so maybe they offer more at times. I tried the garlic bread which was okay and the nachos were unique with goat cheese, beer cheese sauce, jalapenos and picked onions. My sister raves about their pizza so I will have to try that eventually. A few people split the parm garlic wings and loved them, but the ranch wasn't a favorite at the table. They have lots of beer options but I only tried two. They also make their own seltzer and sell that in to-go cans along with their beer. The staff was super friendly and we didn't have to wait long to be served at the counter. I really liked this place and will return again soon! I was a bad Yelper and forgot to take pics... read more

Raised Grain is a model brewery for covid times. Right from the time you walk in, till you get seated and order drinks/food, everything is contactless and very well organized. The taproom here is HUGE with 4-5 different spaces of seating with lots of big screens to catch the game. The front patio is my favorite because of the fact that you can bring dogs there. Their IPAs are truly legendary, just the right amount of hops and flavors. The beer selection is extensive and if you're not a beer person, choose from their abundance of hard seltzers and non alcoholic beverages. Love their flat breads and pretzel bites, a great compliment to their drinks. read more

The place is and open concept but welcoming at the same time. We always get a hello or hi when we walk in the door. It feels like a great family place.

One of my favorite breweries in southern Wisconsin. Drinking a west coast IPA today but so many of their beers are terrific. I particularly love Belgian beers so I'm happy to see those on the tap list. The location is very brewery like. A little tucked away but you'll find it. I love how breweries repurpose these giant industrial spaces and make them welcoming and open. A wonderful brewery to stop by if you're in the area or just like good beer! read more
