Nestled in downtown Kalamazoo, Brick and Brine specializes in cocktails and steaks, but they also offer a variety of menu options to fit all tastes. We celebrated my father's 70th birthday here, and it didn't disappoint. They offer a variety of spaces to fit small and large groups. We hosted 10 people in their main dining room, and it was the perfect ambiance. Their dinner rolls are complimentary, super fluffy and come with a side of black salted butter. We also started with the house salad, and I split two specials - a potatoes au gratin dish along with a dish called Jafar's Chicken. Both were incredible. I highly recommend venturing here for any occasion! Thank you, Kenzie and team for an amazing time!

Principle features all my fav things: a romantic set up, correctly priced cocktails, huge ceilings and vintage vibe, simple menu and table service that feels and looks Divine. I mean, watching my server flip a table during busy dinners service was actually ART. Some notables: I cannot ever choose a drink, but that wasn't an issue here. Ttheir menu featured "Roll The Dice" which consisted of a liqueur, mixer and taste. The bartender creates it for you! Such an authentic touch!!! The menu was small, creative and the FLANK STEAK 1000/10. I personally ordered the Roasted chicken, the plates were small but absolutely perfect.

We rolled rum, savory, and fruity. I was like, how are they gonna make it savory and fruity?? THEY DID. it was yummy as hell. For appetizer we got the duck wings. i've never had duck. its tastes like chicken and was so good i sucked the bones clean like a ravenous beast. I got the rainbow trout as an entree and my date got the oishii shrimp. I liked his more than mine, so we switched plates halfway through because he is in love with me. the trout was also good though. I meant to take pictures for my review but food was too good all I got photos of were the empty plates. I can't do anything right.

Service - Ordered carry out. Nowhere to park, no hostess up front. Went to the bar and the idea of…read morea non-DoorDash employee pickup seemed like a foreign concept, thus resulting in an additional 5-10 minutes of waiting. Food - I live 1/2 a mile from this restaurant. Food was still warm, but all soggy. Everything from the sampler was cooked in what tasted like month old oil. Nothing "golden," all dark, dark brown. Chicken tacos were so dry the sauce couldn't even help it go down. Tortilla chips were a combination of dark/overcooked and somehow soft and bendy. The pulled pork Mac had no cheese. At least none that could be tasted or visually seen, resulting in even more dry, flavorless food. Only decent food were the wings and Walleye. Walleye was soft and a bit soggy, but at least it had some flavor. Just had to get past the random bite of fish bone. The wings were the only thing actually crispy and the BBQ sauce was ok. This was our first and likely last experience with The Hangar. Maybe it's more about the environment than the food???

We recently stumbled upon this High Dive Kitchen and Bar - what a nice surprise!!…read more We've been in twice in two weeks and have found this spot cozy, super friendly, and very delicious!! Great menu with lots of variety! Great drink menu! Everything we've tried has been great!! This spot is definitely worth a stop! (If only the downtown parking situation wasn't such a beast! But High Dive is worth the feat of finding a nearby spot!) I highly recommend the wings - some of the best we've had in town!! We love doing half and half: lemon pepper and sweet heat with the ranch and blue cheese! Their fries are also way good!! Regular or their truffle style!! The bleu berry salad is my favorite entree, paired with the steak it's an absolute slay!!! It will keep me coming back!

Quite possibly the worst dining experience I have ever had…read more The restaurant smelled bad and it almost caused my wife to leave. That would have been fortuitous. Instead, we had to endure a staff that not only was rude, but willfully neglectful. She had only one other table and, yet, our server, Katlyn, never checked with us unless we forced her to acknowledge us. She avoided eye contact at all costs. Ten minutes with empty drinks and we finally got her attention. My wife asked for another beer and she ran off before I could even ask for another of my drink! The dinner was terrible. My wife's Blackened Bleu Steak ($32) was so bad that she took two bites and set it aside. The food was overcooked and salty. My Olive Cheese Smash Burger ($16) was the same. When we called for the check, the waitress did not even question that the food was nearly untouched on our plates. There are so many great restaurants in the area. Save yourself the hellacious experience of the HighDive Kitchen + Bar.

Restaurant Name: The Old goat tavern…read more Dish: pickle chips, BELT, The forty eighty Date Visited:3/15/26 First Impressions: The atmosphere is wonderful it has pick your seat seating a very lovely bar where you can see them make your food multiple TVs to watch the games and a front and back entrance. It's a pretty peaceful college bar next to a really nice coffee shop. Presentation - 10/10 Taste & Flavor - 10/10 When getting food here you can get a good variety of spicy and savory especially when it comes to their burgers their drinks are made with much care. Nothing is too overpowering Portion Size - 10/10 I have a very small stomach so things tend to fill me up regardless however my husband is an endless pit and the burger seemed to fill him up for the time being. Value for your money? I would say you get a good value and a full meal for the price you're going to pay You get good service especially on a Sunday when there's only a very few people in there and you're just trying to relax. ‍ Service - 10/10 The service in overall 10 out of 10 The bartender was extremely friendly kept a decent conversation going & greeted us when we entered, most of the staff is college students so you know they're working hard when it comes to both school and being servers. Overall Rating: 10/10 Final Verdict: The Old goat tavern is by far place I would return to especially for a quick bite and something that's going to kill me up for a cheap price. It's good for a night out on the town or just drinks with friends they have a wide variety of drinks and drafts and a good burger. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you haven't already they live up to the hype.

My burger has layers of cheese and meat and sauce. Mouth full of goodness. Also my "back forty" burger is only $13. Pretty good deal in 2024. Sides are extra though Sides are not so much, just taste like they are from the freezer and straight into the fryer. Burger is the main character anyway. Drinks are weak, you can probably down a couple mix drinks and still blow below limit. With that being said, this is still a better place to eat and watch a game than BWW.

Unfortunately, when we visited this most recent time, the market was not working so I ordered a flight with my dinner. It did eventually start up as we were getting ready to leave, and everything was super high so we didn't participate in the fun. I ordered the Honey Chicken sandwich with the cheese curds and it was honestly delicious. The chicken was good and a perfect blend of savory and sweet, the sandwich came with lettuce, freezer pickle and ranch. The cheese curds were surprisingly some of the best I've had and were perfect with a bit of ranch. I'd have the meal again and hopefully next time, the exchange is up and running! :)

I was really excited they had some gluten free drink options on the menu! I got a seltzer for my first drink (delicious) and a cider for my second.

The chips were great too and our bartender suggested we get their french onion dip too. Also delicious. The service was great and friendly and the vibe overall was really enjoyable. Don't often head out to Kalamazoo, but would definitely stop by again if I was in the area!
