    Cool spot not many brewery's have their own seltzers they were light and refreshing on a hot Texas afternoon! Service was great as well!

    Bar area with plenty of drinks on draft

    Voodoo Brewing is located in Grand Prairie off the 161 and adjacent to IKEA that is in the Epic shopping plaza. I dropped by for a quick bite and a drink and was blown away from the interior design and setup of this local establishment. Inside, there are ample chairs and tables to sit at along with a bar. I was greeted with a warm welcome and smile by the staff as I found a seat at the bar. The beer menu was plentiful and labeled on a colorful chalkboard, stating the beer name and classification along with the ABV%. They had a large flat-screen TV playing hockey, and the food menus were easily accessible from your seat. The food menu had plenty of options such as burgers, appetizers, and pizza to choose from. I went ahead and ordered the Buffalo hot wings and had the fried pickles with a side of ranch. For my beverages, I chose a lacto cooler, which was a sour berliner Weisse and a West Coast IPA named good vibes. Both drinks were outstanding and complemented my Buffalo wings very well. The wings were sauced nicely and had a nice kick to them, and the celery and carrot sticks made everything better. The fried pickles were deep-fried golden brown to perfection and were crispy and tart giving them an impeccable flavor. The staff provided second to none customer service and was very attentive and eager to assist in any way to make my visit enjoyable. I'll definitely be back again to try different beer and maybe catch a trivia night they hold weekly and attend a live band they hold on weekends. There are happy hour specials throughout the week, and they also sell beer to go. I'm looking forward to coming back to this fine establishment and exploring more food items along with great beer!

    Nestled in the IKEA parking lot, Voodoo Brewery is the perfect spot to grab a craft beer after assembling your latest furniture purchase! The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it a great place to unwind. Nice selection of their own beers and other local delights. The service at the bar is top-notch, especially thanks to Stephanie, who always greets you with a smile and a great beer recommendation. Her friendly and attentive service truly enhances the experience.

    I visited Voodoo with some friends of mine. We love trying new places out especially if we can grab some cold beers !! We all ate some food as well but I was so excited the beer I forgot to take pictures of the food lol! It was just decent "bar food " ! I had some smoked wings and they had burgers. The Beer is definitely the star of the restaurant. 37 pieces was my favorite out of the flight !

    Cool brewpub with modern, casual vibe. The beer is from PA, where the brewery is located, and pretty solid. The food is actually really good and almost a bigger draw for me than the beer. Their mussels with bacon and blue cheese are fantastic. I never had that combo, but it works really well. Briney mussels, the slightly spicy IPA broth accompanied by pieces of the pungent blue cheese and the crispy bacon make for a great combination. My wife enjoyed her salad as well. As for the beer, my wife liked the Lacto Kooler Berliner Weisse with lime and I liked the Kinda hot in these Rhinos Rye IPA best. Definitely worth a visit.

    Friendly fast service. I sat at the bar and there was no wait (mid day). There's a nice western sports bar vibe. Metal, backless stools at the bar and all of the high top tables. I ordered the IPA flight and a house salad. The server asked if I wanted to leave the tab open or closed. I said close it out please. The restaurant pre authorized $100 on my card. When I asked why, I was informed that they do that for all customers and once the tab is closed the difference in the amount is refunded to your account. I informed her that that is important to tell customers prior to swiping their card. Otherwise, I would have given a 5 rating. They have a wide range of beers to try ... enough to cover most palates in barrels, bottles and on tap. I'd defiantly recommend trying this brewery, it's a fun and friendly place to be.

    We are new to the area and couldn't wait to check out this brewery. I went with the cocktail flight which was really good and refreshing. We didn't try much food but what we did get, the server had out almost immediately. Their pretzel was buttery and fresh. I fell in love with the first bite. I can't wait to go back and see what else they have to eat. My boyfriend did say the beers were really good and they have a HUGE selection!

    Here I am in Texas at the start of my travel year and had a chance to hit Voodoo Brewing. This is brewery #268! Voodoo is right across from IKEA, which is funny because I just ordered two bookcases from them but it's going to take two months to deliver. I could have just picked them up but American Airlines probably would say that's above my baggage allowance. Oh well, I digress... Voodoo was not busy at all when I walked in at about noon on a Friday afternoon, which surprised me a bit. Voodoo has a little patio area out front and a good size restaurant and bar area. It has two long bar height tables running down the middle that are made out of, or made to look like, repurposed pallets. I sat at the bar and was quickly helped out by McKenzie who was a pleasure. She was great at engaging with the customers but not overly so when I was trying to eat my food. She's a gem! I got the "Flagship Flight" and started with Lacto Kooler. This is a really good Berliner Weisse. If you like sours at all you should try this one, and even if you don't I think you should try this one. Next up was Oh Mama, a golden American lager. Then the Empty Calories, American light lager. Both were good but frankly unless I'm riding a lawnmower I rarely drink these styles anymore. Just too light for me. Good Vibes west coast IPA was quite tasty. I often don't love mosaic hops but this worked with the other hops, galaxy and Amarillo added. Voodoo Love Child is a fruited Belgian triple, aged on sour cherries, raspberries, and passion fruit. This had a bit too much sour cherry flavor for me. I just didn't really enjoy this one. Last up was Where Our Secrets Go, an imperial stout. While I sampled my beers I ordered a brisket grilled cheese and fries. This was really good. I actually was glad I ordered the fries because they were really tasty and the grilled cheese had nice big hunks of very tender brisket. I decided to revisit the Lacto Kooler as it was by far my favorite of the beers I tried here. If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced.

    Lacie was great behind the bar
    Karen R.

    The beer is really good . So many choices. There are hard liquor drinks also. The service is amazing. Greeted at the door. The decorations are unique with the pallets for the table tops to the wine barrel tables. The mural is beautiful. The food is good Lacie was the bar tender and Ava was amazing.

    Very fun with good "oldies" music. My husband had mussels with bacon and blue cheese. He said they were really good and liked the bacon and blue cheese combo. I had a house salad. I got the blue cheese dressing. I found it a nice light touch to the salad. Reg salad but the dressing g is really good. Too bad I didn't have room for a pretzel to dip it in the remaining blue cheese dressing! You can order right at your table through toast. So if you're an introvert, perfect place! No need to really interact with anyone but who you brought with you! OR you can be like me with your spouse and sit on your phone

    Very Rude bartender! Walked in just and the Bartender starts yelling at me I can't even undetamd what's she is saying! I walked up to the bar and said I was looking! The bartender said to just scan the QR code! No wonder why the place is empty! Don't bother spending your money!

    Heard about this place and wanted to check it out. Cute fresh place, long high tables great for groups, and share space. We sat at the bar, service was ok, there was barley 2 other couple sitting, 7 people in the kitchen (yes you can see them) and they were slow, they recommended beer flight and handed us a menu. PS: The beers listed on the black boards is not what they give you as their menu, so feel free to walk around and read! We ordered their Beer Flight, it was interesting I liked only 2, the dark one, and the orange looking one in the picture - couldn't remember their names. There was also a green looking one they gave us a sample of that was pretty good. So they are famous for wings, it came a little dry. We thought it was smoked grilled wings (thigh, drum and wing), but it's a tiny smoked and then fried, we wanted it plain and sauce on side, the hot sauce is awsome, the blue cheese and the ranch tasted funny, we also tried the lemon garlic to oily and barley any lemon flavor so no. We also ordered the Buffalo Mac and cheese, it was decent not baked, flavors didn't sink in the pasta and the chicken was still dry decent flavors though, but definatly needs more cheese and love! Please note this is not a negative review, this is just an FYI so there are rooms for improvement!

    Stopped in for a quick bite and was pleasantly impressed by the amazing food. Yummmy!!! The wings were so tasty and the burger delish!! Great food and service!

    First time....sorry we waited! Usually won't 5-star on a single visit (especially a newer place)…read morebut this earned it. Early (old timers) dinner for two on a Thurs. App and entrees, didn't drink tonight. Appetizer meatballs were excellent, "simple" seeming but hearty with herbal richness in the sauce and with excellent light, not over-packed meat texture. Wife's oxtail ragu pasta was piping hot and very rich, with good quantity of falling-apart meat. Clearly house made broad rustic flat noodles. I got the striped bass which was *superbly* wood charred (if you know, you know) but still very moist with a really excellent herb chimichurri and a generous pile of still crisp green beans, snap-peas, and lightly charred broccolini. Perfect "low starch" combo without even feeling like I was denying myself. I'd put it in the top 3 best fish entrees I've had anywhere, and I'm old. Service was spot on, nothing obsequious or pretentious just good engagement and then there before we ever needed to look, with little extra awareness like bringing out more ice for my wife's water when it was half melted (without being asked!) because she asked for it to start out. Simple gracious hospitality. Will definitely return. Preferably on a night I can add a drink and indulge in a dessert, too.

The moment we walked in, the cozy, relaxed atmosphere stood out. The dishes we saw coming out of the kitchen looked delicious, and our timing couldn't have been better-no wait at all on a Sunday around 12:36pm, just before the after-church rush. Since it was my first time, I asked our server for recommendations. He asked whether I liked spicy food (absolutely!), and suggested the Chicken Murphy. Excellent choice. The flavor, the heat, the overall balance- just ummm-ummm good. My friend ordered her go-to Chicken Parmigiana. She usually asks for extra sauce because many places skimp on it, but this dish comes with plenty. She shared she would not have requested the extra sauce at all.

Super well-made, great balance, real tiki depth, none of that fake sweet garbage you sometimes get. Every drink we've had has been spot-on. Maggie working the bar is the real MVP though. She's quick, knows her stuff inside out, super friendly, and somehow makes the whole night feel personal. Whatever we ordered, she crushed it and kept the good vibes going. She's a huge reason we keep coming back. Only thing that would make it even better? A water feature. A little fountain, a trickling stream down some rocks, or even a small waterfall wall in the back would dial the ambiance up to 11 and really sell that full island escape feel.
