    I am a regular customer and have ordered here many times, which is why this experience was so disappointing. I ordered the meat and cheese board and what I received looked nothing like what I'm used to from this restaurant. The portion was extremely small and the presentation was poor -- honestly it looked like a cheap gas station Lunchable rather than a $12 appetizer you'd expect from a sit-down restaurant. What made it worse was the response when the issue was brought up. There was no willingness to listen or try to make it right, which is surprising considering how often I've supported this business. I understand inconsistencies can happen, but this fell far below the standard I've experienced here in the past. I hope they take feedback seriously and improve both the consistency and customer service.

    Great location in Mt Airy. Lots of seating. Pleasant atmosphere. We got the Goat pizza and really enjoyed it. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful.

    Great little bar off Main St, Mount Airy. Hand crafted beer with a friendly, knowledgeable staff. Food is reasonably priced and very good. A little loud inside, but the patio outside was very pleasant. Will be returning soon.

    So much food for very little money

    This is really more like a 4.5 rating but I rounded up. I can only speak about the 2 times we've been in but they do seem to be understaffed by about one person each time we come. It doesn't seem to greatly impact their ability to serve food on time though, so thats good. Both times, there have been a lot of dishes piled on the bar. Seems like maybe they need someone to bus tables, clear plates, run food... ANYWAYS.. I love this pizza because it's light and flavorful and not overly cheesy. We were also happy with everything else we've gotten. The price is very competitive which is more and more important to patrons in the changing economic climate. We had beers, a pizza and everything you see pictured for around $50.

    On our weekend to explore Mount Airy, Mrs. K. requested "fish" and it's my job to find a way to make that happen. So I did the searching and found that Thirsty Souls has a pizza with smoked salmon on it. That qualifies. Parking on the street, we had a choice of tables in the pub. I ordered drinks and pizza. Ten minutes later (and half my beer gone) the buzzer did its thing and we're tearing into "The Thirsty Fish" with smoked salmon, onions and goat cheese. A lovely and comfy spot with pizza and other bar food, some tasty brews (the Czech It Out is a lovely pilsner) and the sort of peaceable vibe where you can relax. Five stars.

    Flight!
    Ruby S.

    The perfect Friday night spot! We stopped in ordered our flight of beer then sat outside until we ordered our pizza. This night it took about 30-45m for the pizzas to come out so be mindful when ordered. Also the pizzas are thin (in a good way) I'm pretty sure we could've eaten two! The beer was great, we got 2 flights just to try a variety. A lemon/lavender cider was on special and was so good! The staff was super nice. The vibe is super casual. Family friendly, especially the outside area there's so much to do! I absolutely loved spending our evening here.

    Great laid back atmosphere with a great selection of beer. Pizza was great. Will be back!!

    This was a wonderful place to wile away a Friday early evening. My friend and I had a flight each and especially enjoyed the Passion Guava Gose. We shared the roasted cauliflower (this should be offered on a pizza! So good!) and a Quattro Stagioni pizza. Nice vibe and friendly staff. It was a perfect Friday place for our little getaway to Mt. Airy.

    Stopped by on a Friday night for beers and dinner. Place was pretty busy and staff were not prepared for the number of patrons from what I gathered. It took an exorbitant amount of time waiting in line to order. Sadly, the bartenders made zero effort to acknowledge our presence while standing directly in front of them waiting patiently. Just poor customer service, ya know? The pizza was just okay. The beers were good. I really liked the fake news re-Porter and the mango IPA. I would rate it higher but the customer service was a real detractor. We also got moved out of our table when the lone musician arrived. Thirsty Souls should have a dedicated space for their entertainers that doesn't impede on their seating. Come on yall.

    Funky little spot in the social district of downtown Mt Airy. This place had really chill vibes. Tonight we came for a bite and some beers. My husband had the Arsways Irish Ale, it was a good amber; he said a lime would have really made it. I tried the Naughty Lavender Hibiscus. I am a lavender freak and I really did enjoy this brew! Not too sweet and a tartness I actually liked. For the bites, our pizzas we ordered were The Cheese, The Meat, and The Thirsty Fish. These were all pretty tasty. They had a very thin crust. My favorite was The Thirsty Fish; smoked salmon, olive oil, capers, onions, and goat cheese. My only complaints about the food is that it wasn't as hot as I would have liked it. They were busy, so I chalked it up to that. The taste was there, though! AND I really wanted to try their Roasted Cauliflower, but they were out tonight! Service was good and their grade was a 97.5. The music tonight was on point with my liking, and I wish I had asked about their playlist. A mix from the late 90's and early 2000's. We will definitely be back!

    Food was terrific! Pizza was flavorful and very thin. The salads were top notch, filled with fresh ingredients. My 11 year old loved the roasted cauliflower. It too had impeccable flavors. My husband and I each did a flight and the beers were tasty. I loved the Stoned Berries and Kolsch.

    Please do not patronize Creek Bottom Brewing…read more It is not a safe place for women or children. Creek Bottom is at the center of a local controversy involving a young man named William Ayers. In 2023, Ayers was convicted of child rape (carnal knowledge of a child) and abduction. He was released from prison last year, back into our community. Upon his release, Creek Bottom Brewing began employing him to work in the brewery--as a known convicted child sex offender. In February, while working for Creek Bottom, Ayers was arrested AGAIN for ANOTHER sexual assault, strangulation, brandishing a firearm, and abduction by force. It got a little media attention as the "Valentine's Day Rape." Recently added to his list of charges is possession of child porn and sexual abuse of an animal. Where does Creek Bottom come in, beyond offering a job to a known child sex offender? William Ayers' parents are the owners of Creek Bottom. They made the choice to employ him at their brewery, along with their many young women employees and the families who visit the restaurant. Our dollars spent at the brewery unwittingly went directly towards Ayers' paycheck. Many community members feel that Creek Bottom's owners have made horrendous decisions that endanger our community by choosing to have their son employed at the brewery, and by supporting/enabling him in other ways. It is readily apparent that Ayers' parents employ pricey high-powered out-of-town attorneys to defend their son from his charges. (Courtroom interactions between those attorneys and the father of William Ayers reinforce this, with the attorneys pulling Daddy Ayers aside for extended conferencing before making motions.) A couple of days ago, Ayers was offered bail set at $900,000. That means that if his supporters/enablers come up with a $90k bail bond agent fee, or $900k on their own, Ayers will AGAIN be released into our community. All of this is a matter of public record: past convictions, state sex offender registry that showed Ayers working at Creek Bottom until his latest arrest, ownership of Creek Bottom, recent charges, and ongoing court case with private legal defense. All members of our community can and should make their own INFORMED choices here. Sending your money in Creek Bottom's direction could literally help lead to this individual being released into our community once again. Endanger the wealth that is supporting him, and we may be able to make a real difference for community safety. Please don't unwittingly contribute to a William Ayers legal defense fund or to bailing him out to walk among us again. If you see fit, stand by us in this effort.

    I have to be honest--over the past three years, we've visited Joymongers around 20 times. The…read morelocation is great and the live music is consistently solid. However, the beer taste is noticeably off. I'm not sure what's affecting the flavor, but it does make me wonder whether the tap lines are being cleaned as regularly as they should be. We've tried them all, the hoppy IPAs, the lighter styles, some ciders and even the dark porters and the issue seems consistent across the board. Five friends who've joined us on different visits have said the same. At this point, I usually just order a margarita instead. Each beer or cider runs about $7, but the space itself is impressive: a large indoor area with plenty of picnic tables, additional seating outside, a dart wall, cornhole, and another beanbag toss game. Sometimes people will dance to the band but the seating is awkwardly close to wear the bands play. There is a restaurant beside Joymongers that will bring your food order to you, menus are placed at the brewery tables and when the bay doors are open, you can catch a truly beautiful sunset.
