    I visited using the CT Beer Trail passport 2-for-1 and enjoyed the Fireside Vanilla Porter which was on draft and then the Pop's stout from a can. Irish nachos were the special for the day which are crispy potatoes with cheese, bacon and jalapeños with salsa and sour cream. Delish! It was nice to visit a brewery on a Monday and to have a nice snack as well. Staff here are really friendly and efficient. Cool decor including the wall paintings and merch.

    Having never been to Urban Lodge before, I was a bit thrown off by the parking situation. I ended up on Main Street and walked, only to later discover there's a parking lot just down the hill (though I'm still not sure how to actually get to it). My friend and I met up for Happy Hour and grabbed seats indoors, placing our orders through our phones. Her drink showed up almost instantly, while mine took its sweet time. At least our meals arrived together. I went with the Coventry Chicken Bowl, which was pretty tasty overall, though for the price, I expected a bit more. The avocado was past its prime, but I didn't make a fuss. After eating, we moved outside to chat for a while. It's nice that they have plenty of seating and different options, and I got a chuckle from the bathroom decor. I wouldn't rule Urban Lodge out entirely, but this first visit didn't completely win me over.

    This is a review more for the venue than the food, only because I forgot to take pics of the food..lol The venue is great! Very cute inside & cozy. One side is an open brewery feel, while the other side which is much quieter & has a coffee house vibe. The quiet side is mostly only open for special occasions, so it's always an option to get away from the brewery noise. I really like this place. There is outdoor seating as well & plenty of games if you are up for it. We were a party of 7 & no one had anything negative to say about the food. Is that to say it was a 10 out of 10, no, but it's a good place to spend some time & the food is better than most. I ate the peper crusted burger & opted for onion rings. They were pretty greasy, so I shared. We had 2 Sheppard pies, a Philly cheesecake, a grain bowl, grilled cheese & the blackened chicken. All were reported as good. The grain bowl had nice flavor & I didn't want to stop eating it.We brought our own cake & the staff was extremely accomodating, getting us paper plates, plasticware & a lighter. They were also looking up the prices of clothes that were being clearanced. We ordered over the phone & ordered beer at the bar & when it was time to pack up leftovers, they have a whole self service station next to the bar. I look forward to coming back & doing a proper review on the brewery & will also do one on the Urban lodge kitchen. OMG! I just learned they are bringing the food from the lodge kitchen next door over into the brewery! I don't know how that will work in the winter, but apparently they have been doing it since 2019. The menu is not extended in the kitchen area, but i will still come back, so stay tuned for more.

    Our family attended our daughter's rehearsal dinner here last week and we were very pleased with the experience. They chose a buffet of tacos, quesadillas and a variety of sides. The food was excellent, as well as the waitstaff. The bar staff was particularly friendly. The wedding party and the guests all enjoyed the evening. Highly recommend!

    The inside of this restaurant is very Manchester-centered. I like that. There are many pictures on one wall from over the years the Manchester Road race winners. Each has a small bio in the frame, very interesting. There is a restaurant & a bar part. They are separated by a hallway where the bathrooms are located. There are also bathrooms in the restaurant area. You can easily see into the brew house area by way of windows & door in the hallway. If you are using your TOAST rewards, they are not familiar with how to retrieve your points, but they know how to add your points. That was OK for me.. ON TO THE FOOD! My husband got a dark Irish ale. He said it was very good. He got a 9 oz pour. I got a Sprit & water. ( sorry guys, I'm dry) So our food came after quite a few minutes my husband got the grilled cheese without tomato & a half-&-half, which is half fries & half green rings. My husband really liked the grilled cheese & he said that the caramelized onions really made it! I got the veggie burger through the weeds, which is arugula & a nice fine sliced iceberg & 2 sliced pieces of tomato & I got the regular sauce that comes with it, which is a blend of ketchup, bbq, & mayo.& also some of their house Ranch, which I really enjoyed.! I was very happy with my meal & so was my husband, we just said we would come back again. It was very easy to talk in this place. It wasn't very loud. The music is at a level where you can talk & still hear yourself. It's really good. DRESS CODE: It's very laid-back in here as far as dress code is concerned I didn't see anybody terribly dressed up & I didn't see anybody who was walking in their pajamas or anything. I think just come in here dressed as you are & you'll fit fine. No one was excessively loud so it was pleasant to just sit and people watch. WHAT TO DO: They have CORNHOLE! They have DARTS! LEAGUES FOR DARTS on Monday! You can join or just play!! Nobody has darts anymore! They have BOARD GAMES! I didn't think to ask. I hope you guys give this place a chance. I wasn't disappointed.

    We were visiting Manchester and were delighted to find Urban Lodge. It's dog-friendly indoors and out and it was perfect for my pup. Everyone who works there is so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the brewed ice tea with alcohol, the berry sour, and the food. We had the happy hour burgers and truffle fries and they were delicious! We then ordered a flatbread, deviled eggs, and the beer cheese mac and cheese. Everything was yummy and we had plenty of extra food to bring back to our hotel. We actually returned the next day because we wanted more of the delicious iced tea/beer. Again, super friendly and accommodating staff! The setting outside is spacious and nice. It's huge inside with a variety of seating options. I'm looking forward to returning to Manchester just to come back to Urban Lodge.

    You know what I love about this place? Unlike many of the local breweries, Urban Lodge has comfy chairs and I can hear myself think -- even on a Saturday afternoon. The nearby car chargers are a plus. This is their original location in downtown Manchester. They've been here a while, and for good reason. They make a variety of beers, including the mandatory IPA and NEIPA, but also plenty of stouts and sours for those who enjoy them. I haven't tried the food, but the happy hour menu has some amazing deals if you can get off of work early. Come in and relax. Sink into the chair. Slowly drink a good beer while your car charges. They really nailed the lodge vibe without resorting to animal heads and bearskin rugs.

    Happy hour from urban lodge kitchen in the brewery- thought both the avocado duo and the slider were good - great music on the patio and the standard beers were good- just wish they rotated more variety occasionally

    This is a warehouse that's been converted into an artwork ... it's such a fun, lively brewery tucked away around Main Street. It's my personal escape to find tranquility with good friends and good beer. As soon as you pull up you will notice the graffiti spattered murals on the side wall, patio backyard with fire pits, stone walls & string lights. Their beer is described as "very crushable, drinkable beers" Beer: constantly rotating on tap, I love their flight of light beers... esp the morning mist. Other craft cocktails, cider, red wine and some non-alcoholic drinks too. Snacks: pretzels from Hartford baking co., Popcorn, ice cream sandwiches ... and you are welcome to bring your own food as well. You can book the space for private events, like last week when I visited a portion of it was shut off for a private event. They have live music, trivia, paint nights... They have another location on Pratt street... if that's closer to you. This is my absolute favorite and I'm definitely coming back!!

    This was a really fun spot. Family & dog friendly, quite loud, and really good beer and food. I wish there was a bit more seating as it was near impossible to find a spot to sit around 5:00 on a Saturday. But, I'd imagine the outdoor seating alleviates this issue, so when it's warmer, I'll be stopping by again. I love their branding and mission and appreciate their quality beer. Despite the crowd, our food was brought out quickly and the bar line moved fast so we hardly had to wait. Excited to be a regular here!

    Tasty beer. They do have a kitchen here but we came for the brews. You go up and order your beer at the bar. Service is good. Ambience is casual and fun. Nice decor. Purified water station for those that don't want to drink beer. Great for groups and hanging out.

    Went during their happy hour. Drinks were amazing and the nachos that we ordered were spot on. The live music was the frosting on the cake. A must go. We will be back for more good times!

    Very cozy spot. Great beers, especially stouts. The Manchester location has fire pits and yard games. Very much recommend this brewery.

    Very basic Mexican fare…read more I've sworn I've written a review for this place. Eh, all well. I use this place as a barometer for Mexican food. What you get here is the bare bones stock version of Mexican cuisine. Not bad, but usually with lots of cut corners and inferior quality dishes. It's not that they don't try. They do season their microwaved rice and doctor up their cans of refried beans to bring some flavor to the mix. Their chips are warmed and their salsa has some extra spice added in. It's the type of Mexican cuisine suitable for the older generation. Not offensive, basic flavors and comfortable. The price point reflects this, and it's relatively affordable for what you get. This isn't a place I go to expecting great food. This place I go to for that one step above a fast food taco place, and it meets those expectations. If you need a place to take a family to, or you have parents and want to get them something they can handle spice wise, then this place works.

    Went for a much-needed girl's night last night. The service was amazing! Our waiter was so…read moreattentive and friendly. Brought our drinks out so fast! Filled up our chip basket too. We never really had to ask for anything because he was so great. We started off with queso and table-side guacamole. Queso was good, but the guacamole was amazing. I got in the car and told my husband about it immediately. We are definitely coming back just for that. Drinks were good, but I think the bartender had a light hand. I had two and I didn't feel a buzz, which is unusual for me. I'm a lightweight lol. I ordered the 3 enchiladas, one beef, one cheese, one chicken. It was good, not great. But don't overlook this restaurant, come at least for the table-side guacamole! It will change your life.

I decided on the phoritto. You choose a meat and filling for it so you can customize it. I kept mine pretty simple but they had the viet toppings on one section and the Mexican in one too. My burrito was huge! And it tasted just like a bowl of pho which was tasty! My friends also enjoyed what they got - one got a bowl of pho. Another got a quesadilla. And we got nachos to share.

I always thought the concept was pretty cool and I headed in fully intending on ordering the Phorito but I saw Al pastor tacos and the plethora of fresh toppings so I had to try those. My daughter got the original pho on the children's menu and we shared the nachos with queso. I also got a lime margarita and my daughter got a mango boba tea. I'm not kidding when I say the total came to 50$. I was so shocked since I'm used to spending at least 75 when the two of us go out. I tried my daughter's pho and the flavor was definitely there. The tacos were amazing. So so good. The set up is like chipotle. The toppings I chose were sour cream, hot sauce, fresh jalapeños, cilantro, radish, and red onion. There's also a fire chilli sauce that I got a side of over by the plasticware and napkins. Elevated the tacos even more. Chefs kiss! I will be back to try the infamous Phorrito and the only reason I knocked a star was because the rice and beans were not that great as a side. Everything else was fabulous!
