We were invited to try The Quarry Taphouse, what a fun evening at a really nice venue. I like the idea of tossing rocks at a wall full of fun things to hit vs. tossing an Ax, seems like such a better idea. We got a bucket of rocks to toss at the wall filled with lots of metal objects, a chime, some Tonka trucks. They also had a fun crane that you can pickup blocks and try to stack them up or build something. The venue is an old Hastings building that has a ton of character. The Tap Wall has a good variety of beers and ciders. They change them up weekly. The costs per/ounce seems reasonable. They have the types of beverage broken down by type (IPA/Dark...) which is helpful. The cost/ounce varies depending on what you are getting. We tried several different menu items and all were good - the three different kinds of cheese curds along with the wide variety of wings (both bone in and boneless). They also have a lot of great sauces to add to your wings or curds. I also tried the Caprese flat bread, yum. We also tried a couple of the specialty cocktails, I really like the Honey Jalapeno Marg! The wait staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. read more

We stopped here on the way home from TI. Admittedly I saw it from a Yelp Event that I didn't go to and it piqued my interest. We stopped and grabbed some drinks, I got a beer and then saw the drinks of the month and had to try the watermelon mule. It was fantastic! Really enjoyed it! The hubby just sipped on a beer. We got 2 small buckets of rocks for $2 and went to the area to throw some rocks. The $1 a bucket was totally a great deal and simple enough without dropping major money on something so novel, but also really great. The service was a bit to be desired as despite multiple bartenders (and not many people) it took a while to get drinks or service, but the quality was great of the drinks. read more

gross! food is not good! Everyone's burgers were like dried beef. Chicken on salads was tough and no flavor. Certainly don't bring kids as the clientele is pretty trailer trash. Hastings just can't get a decent restaurant read more

We stopped in for happy hour and had a couple great cocktail (Wrecking Ball Martini) and tap beer (Surly + stout). I see that they have some food options I'd like to try next time (cheese curds, flatbread pizza, or a burger). We weren't up to gnoshing on food tonight, but cheese curds are among those items I have a hard time resisting. So next time, I've got my eye on that: hand-battered and Ellsworth curds with caramel sauce. The vibe here is relaxed, and the building is historic (it's got some features that date back to the 1850s). After we ordered our cocktails from the bar, we noticed the pour your own beer tap wall with a rotating selection of 30 beers. I plan to try that next time, too as I can make my own beer flight! read more

Decided to give this place a try after seeing it on TikTok! We live way up in the north metro but I would say this was worth the drive for the fun! This place has free street parking but if it's the weekend, definitely leave early for parking. Also, this area is so cute! Lots of shops to walk to! And it's close to the river! The vibes here are very relaxed and chill. There is a large bar area in the center and a far amount of seating! This is a family friendly place, so don't be afraid to bring the kiddos. Walking in, we were greeted right away and brought to our table! Our server was Elaina. She was spectacular! She was serving multiple tables but did an awesome job checking in on us! She was very friendly and definitely made our whole experience! We would happily go back just to have her as a server again! The food: the steak bites were tender and tasted good in the blue cheese sauce. I would get those again! The Sunnies were also tasty! Get extra lemon! This would also be a repeat for me! The cheese curds were good but very crunchy. The Carmel sauce was great! Had an awesome sweet and salty vibe! I would try another flavor though! My boyfriend got the quarry melt and enjoyed it! We also got an old fashion and the cherry picker to drink. They were both good! I would say the food here is about what you would expect for bar food. Not over the top amazing but still very good! While you are here, you absolutely need to get a bucket of rocks(go for the larger size!) and throw them at the wall! They have different objects set up to hit and it's truly a stress reliever! Overall, this place is definitely worth a visit!! read more

Stopped here after golfing in Red Wing. What a great place to stop. Street parking was easy to find. We ordered dry rub wings and a a smash burger to split. The wings were crispy and tasty. The burger had crisp edges and nice pretzel bun. We chose the waffle fries as our side. They were so good. We sat inside in a great table near the windows. There was a street side patio with umbrellas but we wanted AC after golfing. Service was excellent. I think our servers name was Elena and she was great. The only issue we ran into was it took a bit of time to get the food to our table. But we weren't in a hurry so all OK. It was busy in there with an audience (wearing wild Hawaiian shirts) going to see Weird Al Yankovich at Treasure Island. Hope the show was good. read more

We stop in here quite often after bike riding in the area. The service is very good for our large group. Good beer on tap. The mushroom Swiss burger is great with some jalapeños on it with a side of sweet potato fries. We also have to have the sunnies every time. Really good food. This time I shared a bucket of rocks with our group and they got to relieve their frustrations. read more

While on jury duty I had an hour lunch break so I stopped into the Quarry. Brilliant Feels like it has been here a long time with such a cozy and super friendly service. My server said they have been here two years. I had the blue burger and tots both were outstanding. Decided not to have a drink due to being on jury duty... Hastings is pretty!! The Quarry is a Gem!! read more

Loud on a Saturday afternoon after a Hastings bike ride. Lots of kids & families using the rock range! The Sunnies (hand battered and delicious) are on the menu under "Sharables". I would respectfully like to disagree with that-once you've had a sunnie chip here, you won't want to share because they are SO good! Very good smash burgers and it goes without saying how good the Drunken Sailor sandwich is (since it's my fav Sunnies inside with some nice sweet chili pepper jam). Good service from our staffer, Gretchen. read more

Service is on point and the food is amazing. I've been here 3 times and every time it was great.

Nice choice of beers on tap as well as bottles! Stopped in on a random wed night for dinner sat at the bar Wait staff friendly and attentive the entire time we were there! We had dinner I picked the pulled pork flatbed along with side salad yummy! Nicely prepared Hubby had wings Carolina gold sauce and Nashville hot ( and yes there was heat!) only downside no celery or carrots are available however the blue cheese is home made and delicious! The place was not crowded and it was clean and a friendly atmosphere! We will be back! read more

Our waffle fries came out hot on top and freezing on the bottom, our server never came around to check if we needed anything else, I had to go get someone to get refills and they didn't get the refills right. Nice manager but bad quality all around. read more

Food is good, as is the service. Beer selection is great. A very nice place in Hastings. I will be back.

Their pics look delicious but their food is ehh. The inside was nice. Staff is nice. My fries were warmish definitely not fresh. The burger was decent. Cheese curds were very good. I wouldn't go back. read more

Great new spot in downtown Hastings. I hope they can pull through as this location seems to be a black hole for businesses, I wish you guys all the luck in the world! And maybe luck won't be needed. They make a pretty mean burger. I came here for a work meeting and tried their bacon and cheddar burger. The bacon on the burger was thick cut and yummy, which is a good sign they care about their food. The blue cheese dressing I got on the side for my tots was homemade, another great sign of a good place that cares for their food. The only gripe I will give is that you couldn't customize the doneness of your burger, all burgers are cooked to the same temp - done. I like my burgers medium rare but the patty wasn't overcooked in any way. This place is also home to a unique and interesting way of entertainment/ blowing off some steam. You can buy a bucket of rocks and throw them at different targets in a special "shoot gallery" (ha, I am not kidding you). For only $5 a bucket, maybe not such a bad way of spending a night after having one too many beers? There is also a workable crane or dozer if you want to become a Tonka Trucks kid again. Whatever suits your fancy, this place is a good place in downtown to grab a beer and burger. read more

First time here based on a recommendation. Very comfortable space with a lot of tap selections and a varied menu. Service was excellent. After a couple of cold beers, we ordered the drunken sailor sandwich and the half rack of ribs. The cheese curds we had as an appetizer were 10 out of 10. Besides the housemade ranch there was a caramel dipping sauce with the cheese curds. Sounds crazy, but it was totally addictive! The sandwich and chips were very tasty. The ribs were exceptional as were the side dishes of coleslaw and mashed potatoes. Highly recommend! read more

Wanted to give the new place a try. Granted, I went in at the lunch time and it wasn't very busy at all; I'm thinking it picks up in the evening. Service was quick and friendly during lunch. I decided to try the totchos, since I wasn't too hungry. They were tasty, but I hope they consider doing an option to add beef or chicken (like regular nachos), as there was definitely something missing. The rest of the menu looked good and will come back to try the beer and cocktails! read more

So fun! I took my blue collar boy to this place & giggled the entire visit - the names of the mixed drinks were all so quirky & they truly have a place to unload your frustrations? Take all my money.

My husband stole half of my chips he was over the moon! The interior was warm & welcoming & we look forward to visiting again. read more

Located along the river in Hastings, the Quarry Taphouse is a great restaurant with a surprise activity. We enjoyed cocktails, totchos and boneless wings before buying a bucket of rocks for $5 and heading to their rock range. You literally get to throw rocks at fun things- some items make noise, some fall down, it was a great date night activity! The totchos were so good I didn't even need ketchup and that's impressive since I'm a native Minnesotan. We had great service and were told the boneless wings are breaded in house daily and fried to order. They tasted fresh, had a nice light breading and lots of sauce options. Looking forward to trying some other items next time we visit the Quarry! read more

Last week, we took our grandsons to the Quarry Taphouse for lunch and a surprise rock throwing experience and they were thrilled! They really enjoyed the rock throwing (what boy wouldn't). Our food was also excellent, especially my Sunnies! Also, one of my grandsons is quite a chicken tender expert and he stated that the Quarry's were the best. Service was excellent as was the entire staff. So glad we discovered this gem and I know that we will be back read more

Tried it twice, 1st time I got boneless wings, dry as could be. Ate 2 and gave up. The second time I got a burger, the bun was very greasy like they dipped it in butter. The bun was so bad I don't even remember the burger itself. Probably will stay away for a while til they change some things then I might head back. read more

Previously, this was the Fireside Social House, which wasn't terrible. That closed a few months ago, and The Quarry Taphouse opened in its place so we wanted to try it. On 3/9/23 their website indicated it was "Coming Soon", and its only offerings were for pickup or delivery. This is inaccurate because I knew they'd been open for about a month. We decided to try it anyway. On the evening of our visit, we were directed to new booths which replaced the previous venue's high tops. The booths are relatively high, and there are no foot rests under the booths so our feet were left dangling nearly a foot off the floor which, for us, is uncomfortable. Next, we were instructed to use our phones to scan a QR code on the napkin holder in order to access the menu, and we were told we could order AND pay via our phones. After 5 minutes, we had yet to be offered an opportunity to order drinks despite a couple of employees walking around the relatively empty restaurant. Next, I scanned the QR code and entered my name in order to see the menu. I immediately received a screen (and a text message!) thanking me for paying for my order. Considering I hadn't even seen the menu yet, I was surprised that I was being thanked for my purchase. The message even allowed me to review my order which, thankfully, showed a zero balance with nothing ordered. We never were able to access the menu via the QR code. We continued to wait for another 5 minutes for someone to at least take our drink order, to no avail. Ultimately, we got up and walked out, choosing to enjoy a nice burger & Rueben sandwich at the Busted Nut bar just down the street where an actual server takes your order and makes sure everything is to your liking. I can't comment on the food here at the Quarry because nobody bothered to take our order. We'll try this place again someday only if there are no other places to try in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area.

Unfortunately this is not the place. Burgers are smaller than a Macdonalds quarter pounder and for $15... syke!the shrimp app was totally bland. The food was all wrong and one of the burgers were missing all the toppings. Never got checked on after that. Beers are over priced and the rock throwing is a joke... Good luck we won't be back read more

Kudos management: You have listened to feedback from me and hopefully many others and have added a HAPPY HOUR. Specials on apps and drinks from 3 to 6 pm is great. That is what we are used to at the old owner's FSH. I am confident that this change is not only welcomed by your guests, but also profitable by bringing you many more "regulars". Happy to know of this change. Your service is better too, not relying so heavily on using the code to order or pay. We enjoy personable customer service from staff and it seems that you have added more staff. The only reason I am not giving a 5 star rating this visit is because the wait time for paying my bill was excessively long as well as the initial time to order an app and drink. Food and drink came quickly though once they were ordered. Thanks for listening:) read more

The Quarry Taphouse - Cheese curds - Sports Bars Near Me - Hastings, Minnesota

Needed to try the new spot in town and we were not disappointed! Got cheesecurds and totchos as appetizers, both were really good. And my mom made some special requests for the totchos which were followed to a T. I had the shrimp rice bowl and was blown away by the amount of shrimp, very impressed! And the flavor was really good! My husband had the southwest burger which he enjoyed. My mom got wings as her entree and she said they were really good. My dad had the carnitas bowl and also enjoyed, said the meat was excellent. The kids liked their food as well. We got a bucket of rocks to chuck and that was a lot of fun. We will definitely be back, a lot of things I wanted to try! Our waitress was great. Overall a really good experience! read more
