    Nice selection of beers, most are light or IPA, but they offer a few other varieties. They also have wine and cocktails. Food is mostly pizza, but they have small plates and salads as well. They even have a vegan pizza! Service is friendly, and there's plenty of inside seating, along with some outside seating. Parking is on the street or in a garage.

    Had a great first time experience here! I work remote and was in town but looking for new breweries to hit up (I completed the Raleigh Ale Trail last yr but never made it here) and this spot was convenient to where I was. I went on a Wed right after they opened at 4pm and was greeted/seated super fast. Had a lil hightop in the corner to myself, so was able to work quietly. They provided the internet & pw so I had no issues connecting and a person even came around to ensure I was able to connect! I was starving, so I ordered the small Most Loyal pesto pizza and subbed the garlic kale for the roma tomatoes (highly recommend) and paired it with the Trophy Husband Amber (also highly recommend this duo) and OMG was my mouth happy! My pizza was perfectly cooked, the flavors were so collaborative & complementary and the beer (which was a classically made amber) was almost symbiotic in how well it amplified flavor notes in both the pizza/beer! Since they don't do flight boards, I appreciated that the super friendly, engaging, and accommodating staff let me "try before I buy" and I was able to sample & decide! Ended up doing a half pour of the BBA Heavyweight Champ as my dessert! I'm a sucker for thematic glassware, so I LUVED the glass art for this beer! Def stop in if you happen to be in dwntwn Raleigh!

    This was a very cool place that served what I would describe artisanal pizza so I won't hold it to my typical crust/sauce rating standards. My coworker and stopped here for lunch one day and ordered two small pizzas and shared so we could try two. We got Most Outgoing and I can't remember the name of the other but it had pepperoni on it (pictured). Both pizza's were delicious, I'd say the pepperoni was the best but I think that might just be because it had bolder flavors. I'd order either one again. The two smalls were perfect for the two of us but the small might not be filling enough for the average person. Didn't get the chance to try the beer because - well it was working hours but I'll be back for date night eventually. The staff was wonderful. I felt a warm welcoming vibe, seems like a very cool place to hang out with friends. All their ingredients are locally sourced.

    The husband and the mort are pure butt cheek! Could not drink them at all!

    What a bland brewery/restaurant! The beer was horrendous, tried many types and couldn't even finish one of them and if you know me you'd know that i love beer. Didnt try any food we were trying to get the F outta Dodge. For a Thursday night it was as exciting as a wet mop. Due to a large party coming in we were asked to move to another table. Well that party never showed up. It ok because I've been Mexican all my life and used to this kind of treatment. Oh and if you need to find a man at this establishment, I'd recommend checking the woman's bathroom. I do not recommend this place at all for anything at anytime ever! Timber brewery and pizza is only like an 8 minute drive and is the complete opposite of what this place is. And they have badass pizza.

    A Raleigh staple for its unique pizza and beer options. We went with friends and sat outside. I was worried because it was chilly but they have heaters in the ceilings so I was warm the entire time. I got the Cloud Surfer (beer) and Most Outgoing (pizza) - $15 for a 9" feels steep but it was filling. $50 for two beers and two 9" pizzas. Parking has changed - the lot behind their restaurant has reserved parking but there's a parking lot across the street so still easy.

    My boyfriend and I like going to Trophy Brewing and getting their pizzas. They have unique combinations and the menu rotates. He usually finds a beer he likes and they have great outdoor seating.

    Average spot with overpriced food. Came here with a group and the service was very slow. I ordered a small customized pizza due to dietary restrictions which came to ~$30. It wasn't clear that no toppings were included, just the sauce. Definitely wasn't worth the price and the service didn't improve the experience. Parking is easy so that is a plus.

    Very cool place with a nice outdoor patio! I ordered a lemon rosemary cream potato arugula pizza and unfortunately my friend's chicken pesto honey pizza was yummier than mine! My pizza wasn't bad, just different. I highly recommend the chicken pesto honey pizza though. Our waiter was great and offered me a free substitution of a topping since I said no mushrooms. I asked for bacon and the kitchen forgot, but that was just a minor mistake and didn't affect the experience. Very cool place with a great menu!

    Chicken Wings
    Kristi B.

    We were making a pitstop in Raleigh on a two week road trip and knew we had to come back to the trophy room to have some great beer as well as check out the pizza. The last time we were here they had exceptionally good wings and we wanted to make sure it would happen again! . We are happy to report that the food was absolutely just delicious as we remembered when we were here back in June. My husband ordered the dry rub wings with the garlic sauce on the side. It was absolutely perfect! I opted for the indoor kid pizza, which was a nice mix of mozzarella with tomatoes and a little bit of sweetness. Really delicious pizza and I love that the personal size pizza, are just the perfect size for someone to be full but not feeling bloated. Also tried the Wildberry tart pop sour very fruit forward. Definitely reallyenjoyed that.

    Pizzas for private event
    Glenn G.

    In full disclosure, I was here for a special event and not sit-down service. Our group had a little area off to ourselves. We could redeem drink tickets for a beer and they brought out pizzas for us. Parking was challenging since the lot right behind them is only open to restaurant patrons after a certain hour. I ended up parking on a nearby residential street. I will say the beer was good and the pizza was decent. By the time I left, the place was packed midweek and there was a line to get in. Pretty popular with the locals, I'd say.

    I don't see Detroit style pizza on the menu, but it's in the photos. Is this something they only have certain days or upon request?

    Detroit style is only available on Mondays!

With little signage the space feels like a natural speakeasy. It's unpolished enough to feel a little sleazy, yet polished enough to never feel dirty.

Pleasant surprise to see Michter's as the special of the night, and it was excellent with smooth caramel and vanilla notes. Service started off a little hands-off since we ordered at the bar, but picked up toward the end when staff came by to check in. Drinks were high quality without being overpriced, and the vibe is relaxed--not at all pretentious. You can definitely come casual. If we had more time, we would've stayed longer or come back for another round.

Tokens are reasonably priced and older style arcade games only take 1- the more interactive or multi player games (think air hockey, basketball, dance dance etc) take 4.

Not much else for food here from what I can tell, so don't plan on having your meal here. I brought two teenage boys and we hung out for almost 2 hours- I think I spent about 40 bucks including tokens and a couple of drinks for myself. I really liked the street art vibe, especially all of the murals and the Instagram wall. They've done a great job with ambiance! The outdoor patio adds a lot of additional chill space. When we were there they didn't have a band playing, but I think they do often. I almost want to give it 5 stars, but several of the games were not working properly and ate our tokens. That say you can grab someone to fix them, but nobody appeared available, and I wouldn't have wanted to bother them multiple times anyhow... Would be great if they were proactively checking and fixing them. More snacks would be great too! Other than that it was a really great experience, I would definitely go back.

I'd recommend parking a few blocks away and walking if you are unable to find parking nearby. Walking into the restaurant you'll be transported to a modern brewery, bookstore, and flower shop. It feels chic, Belgian inspired, and upscale. To start I ordered a Vase IPA which was excellent. I then switched to cocktails and ordered the Black Sesame Old Fashioned (bourbon, black sesame, black walnut bitters), the Dionysus (pinot noir, raspberry lemon shrub, chambord, amaretto, lemon, rhubarb bitters), and an aviation (hendricks, luxardo, creme de violette, lemon). By far the Black Sesame Old Fashioned was my favorite and what a nice touch with cracker on top of the dish. For food we ordered the Gai Lan (Stir-fried Chinese broccoli with garlic and oyster sauce), the Peking Duck (Whole, barbecued, free-range duck served with steamed bao buns, cucumber, scallions, and hoisin-honey sauce), Sweet Soy Chicken (Scallions, bell peppers, and caramelized in our ginger soy sauce. Served with jasmine rice), the Lo Mein Noodles (Stir-fried noodles with julienned shiitake mushrooms, choy sum greens, soy sauce, and shrimp), seafood dumplings (Lobster, shrimp, and scallop dumplings served in garlic and black mushroom sauce with fried Youtiao doughnuts), Chicken Curry Bao (Steamed buns filled with spicy yellow chicken and vegetable curry), the Beef with Longhorn Peopers (Sautéed beef, ginger, and longhorn peppers with Shaoxing wine sauce. Served with jasmine rice), the Xiao Long Bao (Steamed crab and ground pork soup dumplings), Nasi Goreng Crab Fried Rice (Traditional Indonesian Chinese fried rice with blue crab meat, Nam Pla fish sauce, house made Nasi Goreng sauce, served in an egg crêpe), and the General Tso's Chicken (Crunchy, sweet, and tangy, Bhavana's General Tso comes with your choice of chicken or tofu tossed in our house-made General sauce and topped with sesame seeds. Served with jasmine rice). By far our favorite food items were the seafood dumplings (excellent flavor, Chinese donuts were so good, along with the flavor from the broth), and the shrimp lo mein noodles (cooked perfectly and the sauce was perfectly distributed). Definitely check out brewery bhavana if you are looking for excellent Chinese food in the Raleigh area. This is by far one of my favorite restaurants in the area.

Well, I finally got to try Brewery Bhavana and it was indeed incredible. Definitely worth the hype. We met my coworker and her partner here for dinner, and I was grateful we had a reservation because this spot was poppin' on a Monday night! The dining room is huge, but the decor breaks things up a bit and makes your meal feel intimate. Everything is shareable, so I highly recommend visiting with fellow foodies who want to try a little bit of everything. Honestly the entire menu sounded amazing, and it was hard to choose! Thankfully our servers provided some excellent recommendations. The Pork Bao was probably my favorite bite of the night, and may very well have been the best Bao I've ever had. The Lap Cheung Fried Rice was also delicious, and I'm usually not a fried rice person! Also worth mentioning is the Lo Mein, which we ordered with chicken. We didn't stay for dessert, but all of their sweet offerings sounded incredible as well. I did try one of the beers they brew on-site, the Sow. It was light and sippable, and I appreciate their diverse beer and cocktail offerings. I can't wait to visit Raleigh again because this will be my first stop!
