Entirely self-service so you don't have to wait for bartenders (unless you're getting a cocktail) and you can try as little of a beer or as much as you want. Unique concept, I had a great time! If you're mentally 12 years old and easily bored like I am, the board games and swings will definitely keep you entertained. Not that you should go swinging like crazy, it's not a playground, but definitely whimsical and fun to not have to stay still! Cute decor and very relaxed vibe. Spoke to one of the owners and he was super nice and incredibly knowledgeable.

I knew I was going to love Sauced Taproom & Kitchen just from looking at the menu even before we…read moretried anything. There's such a wide variety of options that it was honestly hard to decide what to order. I ordered the Yum Yum Melt with a side of broccoli. It was just okay for me. The sandwich was a bit on the thinner side, didn't have many onions, and it seemed like it was missing the garlic aioli. There were also no yum yum pickles on the sandwich or on the side, which was disappointing. I wouldn't order that one again. My one son got the Curd Burger with a side of mac & cheese and really enjoyed it, especially the extra flavor from the hot honey pickles. My youngest ordered the Teriyaki Bowl (chicken, carrots, broccoli, mushrooms, caramelized onions, teriyaki sauce over seasoned rice) and absolutely loved it. My husband tried the Caprese Burger with a side of Cajun fries, which was another solid option and he enjoyed it very much, especially the Cajun fries which were full of flavor. He also tried two of the beers, he ordered the Wangies - a hazy double IPA and he tried the Sasquatch Sightings - Russian Imperial Stout. He said both were excellent. I was intrigued by the different pizzas on the menu, which I am excited to try next time, I love that you have the option of ordering by the slice so you can try different ones or a whole pizza. Our server, Nick, was great; very personable, friendly, and helpful with menu suggestions since it was our first visit. The atmosphere was great also. Overall, a great spot with a fun and diverse menu. Even though one dish missed the mark, we'll definitely be back to try more items!

Our server was so nice and attentive, and also so well versed in their massive beer selection: he offered helpful suggestions whenever asked. The food was well made and tasty; definitely seemed better than I often expect from bar food. We enjoyed cheese curds (really good, not too dense and creative dipping sauces), wings, a square slice of pesto pizza (nicely baked, and a good size for the price), and the curd burger-- all of it delicious!

Other bartender was nice enough though. Try to avoid him and your good.

Recently, I tried Dark Halo with the ISB Root Beer at the Winter Warmer. I'm hoping it becomes a seasonal flavor. I generally sit at the bar, the service is anyways great. The ambiance doesn't feel like your typical brewery. It's very bright inside but it has an open floor plan. I believe some nights they host trivia. During my most recent trip I tried the short ribs. They were good and hit the spot but I think I'll stick to the burgers.

The crowd ranges from busy to minimal and we received pretty good service both times. It can be kind of difficult because there are typically 10 of us so I think we typically have to wait a bit, but they do a pretty good job handling us. This place is very divey but still enjoyable. They have an assortment of vintage hanging lamps above the tables and that is my favorite detail. They have had some kind of music going on every time that we go, which I think would be fun if we weren't there for book club. I definitely want to come back here a time when I'm not discussing a book lol but the music is never too loud that we can't have a conversation. We are always here for happy hour and they have some great options. I always end up getting the $5 wine. They also make an excellent girl dinner with their house fries (basically Parmesan truffle fries) and chicken caesar salad. I have gotten this every time and I will continue to get it because it is perfect. I definitely suggest Wine Dive if you're looking for a fun easy place to go for happy hour!

Came to Wine Dive for an adult bingo night and I was pleasantly surprised. Really I had no idea…read morewhat to expect, but it's kind of a more mature dive bar if that makes sense. A little elevated, but still a dive. They have a large wine list, including bottles, wine by the glass, and some draft wines. The place is pretty spacious. I believe it encompasses the old El Carnicero restaurant and another bar that must have been next door. Seems like that took down a wall to make a really big spot. They have two bars and a small stage for bands, etc. The real surprise was the food. We just got a few things to snack on and couldn't stop. The sweet chili fried cauliflower was absolutely delicious. Probably one of the best fried cauliflowers that I've had in a long time. It was super crunchy with just the right amount of sauce. It was not soggy at all. We also got the popcorn. I forgot what the seasoning on it was, but it was addictive. Last we got some truffle Parmesan fries. They came with two sauces, one was a spicy mayo and the other I can't remember. Both sauces were great to dip the fries in and the large Parmesan pieces were a delight. Definitely a cool place in Lakewood to host an event or see a show.

I love this bar, but it's got a certain vibe you have to surrender to: that musty smell of old…read morethrift-store 1970s furniture, sprawling down on couches set so low they're made for short 1960s people who were starved of nutrients because their mothers only fed them shimmering Jell-O meat molds, and the sense that you're not in a bar so much as a place assembled from fragments of some exploded Doctor Who TARDIS where it somehow assembled every 1960s sitcom into one patchwork locale. But! If you're willing to overlook all that - or, like me, crave it - then the drinks are pretty nice and pleasingly off-kilter, the service a little slow but friendly, and the people watching is top-notch. Just be warned that the bar is at the same address as the Mahall's bar, but it's down the stairs by the bowling alley. Don't get confused; we did.

On almost every Friday & Saturday there is either a DJ playing mostly indie rock (w/ some classic/punk mixed in) or live bands. There is rarely a cover charge for the live music. Sunday is import night, all bottles are $2. They have a shuffle puck table (best bar game ever), foosball & 2 pool tables. Plenty of seating and a very large outdoor smoking patio w/ cornhole.
