    Mozzarella sticks
    Lea K.

    This was our second time here, but have had two good experiences. We did come semi off season both times or during the week so we didn't have any wait in the bar area. We especially came back for the mozzarella stick skillet- unlike any other cheese stick we have had, but so good. We also had the chicken sandwich and a few beers- all very tasty! Bartender was super friendly. We will definitely be back sometime

    Wonderful culinary experience. In a elegant setting for a brewery. We had the brisket, pork belly, deep blue flat bread, and the Fish tacos! Everything was top notch. The fiah tacos wete next level. Served fast and hot with a smile. We will be back for more, now it's a must stop when we visit.

    Highly recommend smoked white fish spread. Our server was very nice & attentive. My husband found 2 beers he liked & I had St Julian's black & blue cider. Great place to get away from wildfire smoke.

    Cauliflower all meat pizza and smoke wings  both very good!

    Food was very delicious! Also tasted freshly made! Service was very quick and nice staff. Was a very welcoming place along with cleanliness and cozy.

    A $9 side salad?
    Ali S.

    The good... the bartender was kind, helpful and quick with service. The bad... the food was meh, especially for the price. I was in shock when I received the bill and my small side salad was $9. The smoked chicken wings were dry and bleh. The flatbread pizza was your average pizza. The host was impatient and unfriendly. He cut me off when I was asking about wait times and then quickly moved past us to call another table. I don't care how busy you are, that's rude. I had been wanting to stop here for years... not sure why now. What a disappointment.

    We had dinner here because beer and a bbq sounded great. I tried their homemade IPA which was very good. They had a good selection to choose from. For dinner I had the pulled pork sandwich. It came topped with slaw. I upgraded to tots, per the recommendation of the waiter. Good choice. Tots were so crispy and good. Pulled pork was good as well. Some nice crispy pieces. It was a huge sandwich. Husband had the Mac and cheese with pulled pork on top. Tons to eat. The place had lots of TVs. We asked to turn on one to one of the baseball playoff games which they did. Our server was great. Gave us good suggestions.

    A solid summer salad
    Mike H.

    Brewery #272 Really more of restaurant that brews beer than an actual brewery but that's splitting hairs. Pops and I came in and had dinner. I got a cup of the chili and a Summer Salad. The chili had brisket, ground beef and bison in it and while good was a little on the sweet side. This was odd to me but not in a bad way. The salad was made with oranges, strawberries, feta and walnuts. Quite refreshing. Rusted Spoke has about 20 beers on tap of which only 5 are their own and the rest were guest beers. I got a flight that consisted of 3 of their beers: Insurrection Ale (wheat beer), DEI Hire (Pale Ale) and Space Filler (American IPA) and I got a Tangerine Haze from Big Lake Brewing. All of them pretty good but nothing wowed me. The service was solid, the outdoor patio are was nice and everything was solid. In a touristy type town, that's a good thing.

    Dry hamburger
    Tammy D.

    The service was good. The food is just okay. The pork sandwich is really dry and lots of sauce was needed. My hamburger was dry too but I did say no pink. The $7 beer was good but I was poured the wrong one. They fixed it. The table set up was located by the bathroom entrance so not a comfortable area to sit. I suggest moving that table from that area. Credit card charge is 4% and they clearly let you know which is a good thing. I was Missing my pickles too but asked for them .

    We came here late on a weeknight and were able to get seated right away. There are stairs or an…read moreelevator to the top and a large parking lot. The view is amazing at the restaurant if you can get a window seat. The food was okay; we had fish/chips and great lakes whitefish to share. The baked potato, side veggies, and whitefish rangoons were good. Our soup came out cool (possibly because it was the end of the night) but our waitress took them back for us. She was a great waitress- very friendly and informative. She gave us tips for the menu and our vacation in general. Overall the food was good but nothing special. We recommend coming for the view.

    Windy, chilly summer day made the restaurant super empty when we arrived around 3pm. I agree with…read moreprior comments that it's not easy to find the entrance and the downstairs lobby looks like maybe it's not even open. Friendly greeting by bartender and seated right away. Ordered lobster Mac & cheese and the perch dinner - both tasty and quickly served. Get the bill for 2 entrees and a single Diet Pepsi for ~$76 and see the "Administrative Sustainability Fee" of 3.5% added. No it's not a ton of money. BUT it's absolutely ridiculous to add a bs fee to an already expensive meal. That doesn't even include a tip...so lame. If the food hadn't been so good, I'd have dropped it down to 2 stars, but at the same time, we won't be back.
