What a great place! I had not been to Union Bear since visiting their Frisco location several years ago, and I am happy to say it is still a fantastic spot for drinks, food, and a fun atmosphere. We started at the bar as our reserved table wasn't ready yet. My husband already knew what beer he wanted but I was on the fence. I decided to try one of the frozen cocktails, but one was a little too sour and the other was a bit too sweet. The bartender suggested mixing the two together into what they called a "Fraddy," and it was absolutely perfect! The staff was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and helpful, which is something that seems harder and harder to find these days. They have TVs throughout the restaurant, making it a great place to catch a game, and we especially enjoyed watching the World Cup there. The outdoor patio is spacious and inviting, and I also appreciated that they accept reservations. Bella was an outstanding server who made excellent recommendations for our meal. The pizza was very tasty, although it was slightly undercooked for our preference. We also ordered a small Caesar salad, which was good but a little smaller than expected, so we will definitely order the large next time. Overall, we had a great experience and will absolutely be back! read more

We stopped at Union Bear while traveling to Oklahoma after finding it on Yelp, and it was a great choice. It was a busy Friday, but we were able to sit at the bar and received excellent service. We shared a burger and fries, both of which were very good, and they had a nice variety of beers to choose from. The atmosphere was great, Definitely a place we'd stop again when passing through. read more

We had dinner with friends at Union Bear Brewing Company last night, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The hostess greeted us warmly and seated us right away. From that point on, everything just kept getting better. The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and lively. Our waitress, Erika, made the evening even more enjoyable with her exceptional service, friendly personality, and great sense of humor. She truly went above and beyond, and we'll definitely request her the next time we visit. If you haven't tried Union Bear Brewing Company yet, I highly recommend it. We're so happy to have such a fantastic restaurant and brewery so close to home! read more

Service was great! It was a slower night, tasty options / first visit. I liked the vibe- clean, casual. I had the Rueben, I did not care for their sauce- it's their version of thousand island. It was a little spicy for me...but I'm spice averse, lol. I would recommend! read more

Beer is very good and a nice variety, not overloaded with IPA like most craft breweries. Our server was great. High-energy and he knew the menu very well (food and beers). The food missed the mark a bit. The Reuben has their own sauce instead of a good thousand islands dressing and it wasn't great. A Reuben doesn't have interchangeable ingredients. It came with "salt and pepper" fries but these completely tasteless fries had neither (as in not a sprinkle of either). A salad was described as "OK". The atmosphere is casual, a little more upscale feeling inside compared to the look of the building's exterior. read more

I've always enjoyed Union Bear brews and since I was in town we weren't far from the brewery. The place was packed so you know they're doing something right. The food was great and so were those icy cold suds they are pushing out. Glad I could support a local brewery! read more

I'll start off saying the food here is surprisingly good for a bar. The pork rinds and shrimp tacos were great, I'd skip the pizza though. The service amazing. There's plenty of seating and super chill. I'd comeback again when I'm in the area. read more

We went to UB on a Saturday for lunch. The parking lot was packed, so we were excited to try this place out. Walking in, we were greeted and sat pretty much instantly, with a party of 7, which honestly, was amazing since it was so busy. The server came over immediately and was friendly, conversing with me and my family. Love the vibe from the server, so I knew it was going to be a great experience. The restaurant was VERY clean and even though there were a ton of people there, it was still very quiet and we did not struggle to have a conversation with the entire table. The bathrooms were also very clean and tidy, which is always a plus. I got a Hef to start off my meal as I am a big sucker for for a good Hef. It was VERY good, so I had two ;) We got some chips and queso and some pretzel bites for an appetizer. The chips were seasoned well, but the queso was just ok. I had the burger, my wife had the falafel burger, and the kids had pizza. Our friends had salads. All the food came out VERY quick. It was VERY good and fresh. The pizza looked and tasted amazing. I really enjoyed the burger and the fries were also very tasty. The other food also looked really good and my friends said how much they enjoyed it. We finished out the meal with some brownie and lemon blueberry cakes. Both were really good, not too sweet, although the brownie was teetering on the side of too sweet, I still enjoyed it. Overall, this place was excellent and a DEFINITELY must go if you are in the area. I will be coming back to this place for sure! read more

The outside is unassuming but don't let that fool you. The food inside goes hard. There were a few things I would definitely recommend above others- like the Mediterranean plate and the fish and chips. The Korean shrimp tacos were also delicious but the side of chips and queso throws off the plate a little bit. The service is awesome and the staff really knows their menu and beers well so the recommendations are top notch. read more

Another great visit at union bear in Denton! This time we ordered sweet and spicy shrimp, drinking snacks, meat and cheese board and built our own pizza. We asked for an EVOO base, mozz and roasted garlic topped with pepperoni and red onion. We also ordered alcoholic drinks, brut sparkling wine for me and beer for my husband. The waitress misheard and brought me a blueberry golden root ? mule they have but took it off the bill and let me keep it while also bringing back the correct drink. I don't normally like blueberry but the drink was actually tasty, it made me feel bad for asking for my original order. The waitress was really nice and made sure to check on us at appropriate times. We sat outside this time because the weather was so nice and Id love to do it again really soon. read more

Such a great location - so spacious inside & options to sit outside & enjoy the fresh air. Heaters avail too. Great service & fresh, delicious food & bev options. Chose a Falafel Burger & Chicken Sandwich (added bacon) both were huge & came with fries. Also enjoyed the Skinny Bear & a cold tasty ale. Both were so good & we'll most certainly be back! read more

This is the best place. Food, Service and atmosphere. Great for friends and family and it's great to have a few drinks.

This is my favorite date night spot to get food and drinks. The restaurant is beautiful and the ambiance is amazing. The staff are always helpful and friendly. The drinks are always hitting and don't get me started on their holiday ones . Definitely order a pizza, don't question it. If that's all you get, I promise it won't disappoint. I personally don't care for pineapple on a pizza but my husband loves this pie. It can be busy but when the weather is just right, I would sit outside. Eat here and check out the rest of Denton afterwards. read more

Wow! My husband and I were in Denton for an event, and we decided to go to Union Bear Brewery afterwards for dinner. We were so happy that we did! The reimagining of the previous brewery was beyond our wildest dreams! Union Bear's atmosphere was lively and fun! The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Their beers were flavorful and with lots to choose from. And the service was exemplary! Even on a busy Saturday night! We loved it here, and we can not wait to return soon! A couple of hints...you can join their seating wait list on Open Table ahead of time. Also, be sure to check out their cool merchandise like tin signs and six packs to go! read more

Union Bear Brewing has quickly become one of my go‑to spots in Denton. The beer menu is superb -- I'm still working my way through all the different brews, and every one I've tried has been excellent. The cocktail menu holds its own too, which is rare for a brewery. The food is another standout. This is not pub‑style filler; it's genuinely good, thoughtfully made, and pairs perfectly with whatever you're drinking. Add in the cool atmosphere and the consistently great staff, and it checks every box that matters to me. Those are non‑negotiables in my selection, and Union Bear nails them every time. read more

I left a review previously with criticism and I wanted to update my review. Management reached out and offered to give us another chance. We actually declined but I will say they are the only team who has ever reached out to me. We have been back many times since and they legitimately took our notes to heart, the service, food and drinks are amazing and we will continue to enjoy our time here. In today's world I have to give union bear a major tip of the hat towards doing great. Way to go and more beers we go!!! read more
