Stopped here for lunch on Wednesday and enjoyed the location. I see the previous low reviews and I didn't experience the issues with service or quality of food. This was my first visit and I had stopped at a location further down the concourse called The Local. After the waitress walked past me three times without saying a word, I left and found the Brewhouse. My Beef and Blue salad was good and the salad dressing was very flavorful. I enjoyed my lunch and the server checked on my several times. I recommend. read more

I decided to stop in while waiting to be picked up and the service is subpar. The bartenders were clearly rude except to the table of gentlemen sitting next to me. The clam chowder is a heated up bag of soup. It might almost be better than the service. I am disappointed in the lack of at least a smile but who knows, maybe it was an off day. I order draft beers and you can't go wrong with beer so that earned a second star. I don't recommend for food but beer is beer. read more

Decent airport eatery. We had a veggie burger and broccoli cheese soup. Food was served fairly quickly and everything tasted fine. read more

I had really high hopes. I am a fan of Sam Adams beer. So my husband and I stopped here for some food before our flight. The drinks were good. I had the cherry wheat beer and he had a tall boy of tea/lemonade drink from a can. The beer had a lot of extra cherry flavor. I couldn't figure it out at first, but there was a maraschino cherry in the bottom of the glass. Not sure how I feel about that. It was ok? The food was not good. He had the burger- not great (especially with smash burger right there!). I had the chili nachos. They were not good. THE CHILI WAS COLD. Cold chili in Cincinnati?! Even warm it wouldn't have been great tasting chili. It wasn't even luke warm people! I also got some dried nacho cheese skins- ya know, from when the nacho cheese sits too long and dries out on top. But my plate was almost entirely chips. So at least they weren't soggy! I am just upset that I paid over $15 for terrible nachos and a weird beer. read more

Sam Adams Brewhouse - Sad burger and cold nachos. - Airport Lounges Near Me - Hebron, Kentucky

The worst airport food I have ever had in my life. When is the next movement to change how shitty airport food is? It's ridiculous restaurants can feed us crap just because they are in the airport. Waste of my money. The only thing promised to not taste like shit is canned beer. Had a "brisket salad with fresh greens and BBQ vinaigrette"? More like "beef jerky with a Walmart salad mix we bought and threw in some onions. We made a sauce from canned marinara and mixed it with some store bought bbq sauce to call it our own for $15". read more

Sam Adams Brewhouse - Don't do it. - Airport Lounges Near Me - Hebron, Kentucky

Airport is busy. Stopped to get a bite really quick before my flight. Closed at 6:30pm on a Sunday? In an airport. Are you serious? Ridiculous! read more

Avoid. The food options at this terminal are rough, and this is no exception. I'd recommend picking up food on your way to the airport if at all possible, because being hungry at CVG is rough (other than Graeter's, of course). We ordered three meals to go before a flight, and the main saving grace of our experience was a friendly waitress who hurried our order since we were taking off shortly (thank you!). The food was mediocre at best. The pulled pork sandwich was definitely better than the turkey club, which was filled with bad-quality deli meat and came with soggy potato chips. After taking our food back to our gate, I returned a couple of minutes later and asked a different waitress for two cups of water. She didn't stop walking when I asked politely for her help and was not welcoming. Really rubbed me the wrong way. I would not recommend this place for food at all -- overpriced and low quality. read more

Stopped in for a quick beer before my flight home. Staff was friendly, beer was cold and they let me charge my phone while I waited.

Ordered the fish n' chips and SA Cherry Wheat. The beer was the best part of the meal. Fish was not "beer battered" fish but it wasn't advertised as such either. Just two extra large slabs of tasteless fish. The fries were shoe string, but also tasteless...like cardboard sticks. read more

First timers and have we been missing out. Great setting. Eric the bartender is wonderful he happens to be the general manager which was a bonus. Thank you for the taste of the coffee pale ale. YUMMY. Had s flight and not one was bad. The cherry wheat taste like a slurpy. Check out the merchandise!!!! read more

Nobody should fly on an empty stomach, well that is unless you get airsick, but if you are about to embark on a long flight where the only sustenance is a pack of pretzels and 2oz of ginger ale, you have to make the dreaded Sophie's Choice decision as to where to eat. Fast food or restaurant-ish... Airport businesses in general are notorious for inflated prices and who can blame them? You're at their mercy and have no choice. Well, unfortunately Sam Adams Brewhouse is no different in that regard. However, the food is fine, and for some reason or another, I typically find my flight gate in this wing and so instead of stuffing a Subway meal down my throat, I will sample some of the grub here. I have had the soup (forget what kind, probably chicken noodle) and brownie dessert and I believe something else food wise. Service is fine and attentive. If you have the time, this place is an ok choice and considering the open "windows" you can sit there and people watch (the BEST part about waiting in an airport) for a long time. Safe travels! read more

My wife and I ate here while traveling. Slightly slow service and OK food. I know I will pay more inside the airport but my wife's nachos had cold chili on them and my burger was just OK. I would honestly go to smash burger across the terminal for a better burger for around the same price. The drink selection is the only reason I give this place another star. They had a fantastic "Arnold Palmer" style canned alcoholic drink that was phenomenal! read more

Hubby, daughter, and I ate here pre-flight since we had some time before our flight. Daughter had the burger and fries which she claimed was very tasty. Hubby had a caesar salad with chicken. Pretty standard. I had a sandwich. I cannot recall what kind, which tells me that it was not memorable. What I do remember is sitting at a table for four near the kitchen. AND, a worker with a cart came by several times to take food outside of the restaurant. It was a metal, noisy, obnoxious cart :o( AND, when the lone waitress was cleaning up a nearby table, while she was moving a wooden highchair she banged it right into my chair. She didn't even acknowledge that it happened. Rude! Definitely have experienced better service elsewhere. Maybe it's safer to sit at the bar! read more

Food is pretty standard for airport fair, large portions but nothing to write home about when it comes to flavor. Come for the drinks, leave in search of flavor. read more

I was in here for a few beers waiting for a flight one day, it's about what you'd expect in almost any airport. Descent beers on tap (Sam Adams, obviously). I didn't eat here but the menu and food look pretty standard. Not a terrible place to kill a few hours. read more

Great beer, typical food for an airport sports bar. Had the fish sandwich and it was huge, but only ok. The fish was nicely fried and it was on a decent ciabatta, but the veggies were limp. Fries were good, and, as I said, beer was excellent. For an airport restaurant, not a bad option. read more

If you're used to Sam Adams airport fare in Boston this is a sad imitation. I would not recommend going out of your way to sample the fare. Fish and chips were a solid block of grease, over cooked and under seasoned. Service was intolerably slow even when I had plenty of time. I don't have high expectations for an airport eatery but this failed to satisfy on every level. Overpriced, bad service, bad food. Stear clear! read more

Horrible food! Avoid at all costs! Over priced & bad. Fries were cold & soggy. Burger was over cooked & flavorless. Bacon on it was soggy Even for airport food this was exceptionally bad!! read more

Waited 40 minutes for them to tell me they were out of what I ordered. And it would be some unknown amount of time for a new order.

We were killing time and stopped in Sam Adams for a few beers. Our waitress named Jackie quickly seated us, thankfully the last table she had and she was working very hard. She served us quickly two very cold large glasses of Bud Light. Airport prices so $5 a piece is average and the glasses for larger than normal. Having been a waiter in my earlier years, I can give fives stars to Jackie. She was fast and fun. We enjoyed three more each before heading to our flight.....When I went to pay, I paid with a hundred, she asked if I had another $100 bill that this one did not have the security line embedded in the bill which is a quick way to tell if it could be counterfeit. I was shocked for I had taken the $100 bill in through my bed and breakfast business and now realized maybe someone had passed a fake bill on to me as payment. I totally apologized and pulled out a newer $100 bill, which was proven to have the security mark line and real. We left a 25% tip because she deserved it, even though I felt like a unexpected bum cheater unknowingly trying to pay with a possible fake bill. As a waiter myself, I remember checking bills for the security line also as a way to tell if it may be counterfeit, so it must be fake. We headed down toward the gate, in a few minutes a gentleman said, the lady at Sam Adams is looking for you, you left your jacket and envelope of money in it....I retrieved it and once again was happy she looked out for me. Anyway my late night flight was cancelled and as I waited for the Holiday Inn shuttle to our comped room from US Air, Jakie passed me waiting in the cold rain, and again said she was sorry I was having such a rough day, I had buried my father, flights from hell, then a possible counterfeit bill I had taken in. She even offered us a ride to the Inn on her way home, outstanding lady she is. I got back to Fort Lauderdale today and took the $100 bill to the bank where they verified it was a real $100 bill, they also informed me that the treasury department did not start putting the security lines in the $100 bills until after the early nineties, my $100 bill was a 1988. Relieved and happy, but I had learned a valuable lesson and thanks to Jackie.Even though my bill was real, I must start checking every $100 bill for authenticity when guest pay their bill in cash. Five stars to this out standing professional fun server. read more

For an airport it was a-ok but I'm waiting for the day that the airport food quality steps it up a notch. Mya, one of the employees, was charming and personable- she made the experience all around a great time. read more

The bar was clean. Everything else was dirty. Not impressed. Wait staff not attentive to seat us and sat at table watching American Idol or some crap- not cleaning tables. If you want Sam Adams go to the smaller place further down the section for gates A. Much cleaner and looked like they did a better job of having it together. Bar tender looked like he was doing all the work and not the waitress. Won't be coming back to this Sam Adams on our next trip, we will check out the other offerings. read more

Standard fare for a standard airport bar/restaurant. The food was passable and the server seemed nice but the prices were alarmingly high. Just don't order the steak salad and ask for medium. The first time my salad came out - the steak was cold and looked like it wanted to give me e.coli. The second time the steak was completely well done...maybe a bit beyond well done. It's not that hard! Get it together people! read more

Their cheese burger consisted of a frozen burger patty, bits of bacon, unmelted cheese. Service was subpar especially due to the lack of patrons. My server stood at the end of the bar, worked on a crossword puzzle and ate some soup as I waited for my check. Eventually I walked up and asked for my bill read more

My group of 3 women ate here before our flight, there are (oddly) 2 of these restaurants near each other in Terminal A. We ate at the smaller one that we saw first - wish we would have walked to our gate first so that we'd seen the 2nd larger place. This place was not that busy, but the poor waitress looked stressed out from serving everyone - she was the only waitress we saw.! Our food was just OK, (I got a veggie burger that was good) & the wait was long to get our food, and we wouldn't eat here again! read more

Rude staff. One of the old and bitter waitresses bumped into me and snapped at me to get out of the way and then told me I can't have my carry on bag with me? Wtf? This is an airport. Took forever to get service, then AFTER taking the order for the person sitting next to me (5 min later) did the waitress bother to say it's a 45min wait for a burger. God forbid you ask to replace the chips/fries with salad. The absolute horror on their face. Avoid avoid avoid. I would give zero stars if it was an option. read more

I was very hungry waiting for my flight, and when I looked on Yelp to help me make a decision, I was extremely disappointed. I had to pick among a bunch of places with less-than-ok reviews. The first place I decided to go to was called local and I waited several minutes to get seated, was ignored, and decided it wasn't meant to be. Went to this place, hoping to just get a drink and something to eat. I was already not expecting anything good based on the existing review. Anyway, I got the mozzarella/roasted vegetables salad, and after I ordered it I felt sad because I immediately thought I should have at least ordered something warm. Well, when the food came out I could not believe my eyes. The roasted vegetables looked great, cheese was great, and I was very happy with my choice. It was relatively healthy and delicious. Kinda pricey still for what it is, but I was pleased. read more

Chain restaurant bar with typical sandwiches such as Turkey Club, burgers, nachos, fish & chips. Serve Samuel Adams beer plus approx 10 others. Full bar as well. Service at bar was fairly quick (15-20min to get food). Turkey club did not have real sliced turkey but rather looked like Oscar Meyer sliced turkey or something like that. Thin string fries are cold before you eat them. Guy next to me said he liked his fish and chips. Their hours were open until 9pm so after I had dinner around 6pm I came back at 8:45pm for a drink before my flight took off- they had already shut down the bar and would not serve us... read more

Tired and thirsty after a long weekend at the Derby and a long trek from Colorado, we met up with fellow travelers from the Derby at Sam Adams. We immediately met and charmed by Cat ("Catfish"), the sweetest, funniest woman I had met in quite a while. She told us funny jokes and even sang sweet songs, Go Cat! read more

The worst nachos I've ever had. Since when is "beer cheese" just nacho cheese, and the "Sam Adams chili" is off-brand canned chili, with jarred jalapeños on top, I would rate this as a horrible disappointment. If you have to come here, do beer only. read more

Do not go here. It took us over an hour to get food - in an airport. If you want beer, they're good!

Wow. Impressively bad in so many ways. Bun was ice cold, pork fatty. Bartender-cum-waitress totally indifferent. A totally bad dining.drinking experience. read more

Airport food at its worst. Flatbread has canned sauce and is not cooked. If they didn't have a captive audience they'd be out of business. Well the staff tries hard there's nothing you can do with terrible food. Go somewhere else if you can read more

I have never in my life been treated as badly as my coworkers and I were today at this restaurant. The waitress (a middle aged, overweight, blonde woman with glasses) treated our group like garbage. From throwing straws down on the table to saying the burgers there were awful (i think to make us leave), to extremely slow service, to the topping on the cake of her actually yelling at one of my coworkers for wanting to change her order. We ended up cancelling our order and leaving. And then after multiple requests to see the manager with no one showing up in the 30 minutes we waited.... I will absolutely not be back and will be contacting the corporate office about this employee. read more

Out of chicken, checked on me once during a 35 minute span. When my waitress finally did ask me if I needed anything it was from 25 feet away. When I didn't hear her she complained to the other bar tender that I wasn't paying attention. Avoid this place like the plague.... read more

Can I give er less then one star? dumpy dirty over priced crap.. stupid cash machine would not take my card.. Waitress had the patience of a small child.. My card was fine, their machine was broke..
