Beer, wine and pizza...what's not to love about The Growler Exchange?…read more For those of you who have never been to this amazing business before, The Growler Exchange is a tap room and restaurant which carries a huge variety of unique beers, as well as some of the most delicious pizza you've ever had in your life. I've been a regular at this restaurant for 5 years and I can tell you that quality has stayed the same throughout the years. I also appreciate that they now have a bigger variety of wines and you can also buy beer and wine to-go. If you are looking to try their amazing pizza, their most popular pie (and my husband's favorite) is their Mike's Special which is a red sauce pizza with mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon and topped with honey drizzle. However, if you prefer something spicy (like I do), I highly recommend their Spicy Meat Sweats which is also a red sauce pizza with mozzarella, garlic sausage, pepperoni, salami, bacon and topped with some very spicy chili oil. Hope everyone gets to try this amazing local business, and don't forget to bring your growler with you! PSA for the parents: They do welcome kids, and they even have a changing station in the women's bathroom.

This place actually had a great one and I was able to enjoy it. The place also offers flights. Some at our table took advantage of that so that they could try multiple drinks. The place is very pet-friendly and the people who bring their dogs have well-behaved (and adorable) dogs. There are games around so you can play. We had some sort of Q & A game which made the visit that much more fun(nier). The staff was friendly and seemed to be enjoying being there so that's always a positive. Overall a good place. I would definitely return here.

Super casual, no pretentiousness just serious flavor. Let's talk wings... because yeah, this is where your wing obsession levels up. These aren't your typical pieces the drum and wing come together, and they're loaded. Pro tip: cap it at 3 pairs unless you're ready for a full-on food coma. Price might feel mid-to-high, but one bite and you'll forget you even cared. Deviled eggs? Just order them. One or two... and you'll get it. And the J.A.C. Burger messy, bold, and absolutely worth it. The kind of burger you don't even try to keep clean. Shoutout to Irissa for being an elite host dialed in recommendations both visits. That kind of consistency matters. Yeah... we're already planning round three.

We sat at the counter & watched the chefs cook! We got suggestions from the staff, which was very helpful. The donuts came out right away, they were good but a little crispy.

Easily will be coming back & also will try Cullum's Attaboy!

It is next to the Make Ready food hall and makes for a perfect 1 - 2 punch of activity. We arrived right at the tail end of Happy hour, so I order an Old Fashioned and found a spot at their outdoor patio. The patio is pet friendly and they do have live music. My drink was made well and made for a nice evening as the weather outside was nice and the live one-man band added some nice ambience. I can see why downtown residents would like to hang out in this area. Overall, I really liked the vibe of this laid-back icehouse and look forward to coming back to experience more.

The interior of Idle is very nicely designed with good branding and a great setting to hang out. It's spacious so it never feels overly crowded. We talked to one of the bartenders once who told us they are connected to Golden Gopher in LA, which we had been to in downtown LA. They always have sports on their large TVs. You can also order food from Make Ready food hall and eat there which is pretty amazing. They have some snacks you can order as well and once I went when they had a taco vendor as a pop up. So cute! Family friendly and they have a large outdoor space where kids can run around. They do have a cut off time when they become 21 and up. Parking is either on the street or a surface lot close by.

The mural at the front and the menu branding is really cute! There's lots of TVs and comfortable seating throughout. I could see this being a great meeting spot for a small group to host a private party. There's even a few modern slot machines near the front. We came on a Monday afternoon, so we didn't try any drinks. The wings and food is apparently supplied by Gold Feather, (a chicken chain with a location by North Star). Unfortunately, the food was the worst part. The side of fries is super small for $5. We got a chicken tender basket with the jalapeño ranch rub and it was sooooo salty! It had a nice kick to it, but was unbearable to eat in the salt. We also ordered fried pickles, which had such a light batter it was falling off the pickle. It seemed like it was fried after the chicken so it was also pretty salty. The servers seemed really nice here, but someone didn't prep the food quite right. The chicken was also pretty dry. I feel bad the food wasn't good cause otherwise it's be a really fun spot! I think we'd still come back to watch a game, shoot some pool and have a drink or two.

If there is a band scheduled to play that night, pray you get your drink before the inside gets packed because, boy does it get packed! Other than, the bartenders are cool and give good service. The pictures posted are a bit dated but now there is a horror movie novelty shop called House Of Monsters that sits where Robot Monster is and they also sell some pretty cool stuff!

I loved their white out pizza! Super yummy, filling, and great pricing. Enjoyed conversation with a frequent regular (Dave - he was super friendly!) and had an amazing bartender (Magdalene!) who was so helpful with beer recommendations. I highly recommend this spot for any beer lovers. Great for watching a big game or live event given their amount of TVs. Perfect for game nights, meetups, and just hanging out. Parking onsite. Clean bathrooms & space. Fun spot!

The building is beautifully redone, maintaining the historic aesthetics of the original area. The bar area is beautiful with plenty of additional casual dining seating and they also have a spacious outdoor beer garden area. For my first visit, we stopped in after shopping just for a snack of appetizers and drinks. The queso and chips and fries that we ordered were flavorful, and the portions were very generous. Although their menu isn't very extensive, the sandwiches looked huge and very tasty. They offer beer on top, but we opted for mixed drinks that were great. The service was wonderful and I look forward to going back with an appetite to try more of their menu options.

You'll have to go to Newall street to find the entrance. There is no parking specifically for the restaurant. Now, the place is a bit small but the servers are nice and you can eat inside, outside or at the bar. They have a relatively small kitchen so the menu reflects that. We had the pretzel (4 short pretzel sticks), nachos, the smash burger and a grilled cheese sandwich for our Grand Daughter. Service was quick initially but they weren't great on refilling drinks. Food was all good and a reasonable value for the venue. I'd get the burger and nachos again. They are kid friendly during the day (it might be a different crowd at night), it is clean and not too noisy. Hopefully, people will find it and enjoy their food. I believe they are part of the Goode Co company out of Houston and sell their Pecan Pies as well.

Everything came out quickly, the service was smooth, and the whole menu felt approachable. I enjoyed the crawfish roll, which is a really nice alternative to the crab roll. Almost every time I see crawfish that's been peeled be someone else on a menu, I get pretty excited. Anyway, it served with the made-in-house hot sauce mixed with the drawn butter. Yummy. The fries were especially good, and dessert really surprised us. The carrot cake is very mild on the spice side, which actually let the textures shine, especially the brittle on top. It was incredibly light, crunchy, and honestly the best part of the dessert. We also appreciated how efficient everything was. We had a relaxed lunch, never felt rushed, and still managed to be in and out within about an hour and a half. Overall, a great experience and a great choice to eat here based on the efficiency and menu options for the pickier people in our group,
