Great selection on draft. I was hoping to taste their lager but they were out. They had a boot glass, which was cool. But I stuck to a pint glass. I didn't eat there. The ambiance was a nice biergarten feel. I hate the way you place orders though. But others in my group liked it. They use QRC and you can order and pay all online. More

I’ve been to the Brig a few times and while I don’t recommend the coleslaw, I’ve enjoyed much of what I’ve ordered, especially the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. They also have a great non-alcoholic bar menu which includes a rarity - a non-alcoholic IPA! It’s def a good place to join a group of friends for drinks.

had to order online but it only worked on Android devices, we tried on 3 other phones but it wouldn't go through. food was meh pretty average bar snacks. service was relatively fast. had about 2 dozen mosquito bites by the time I left would appreciate some bug spray like they do at a few other places around More

Great place! Tons of beers on tap and good food. They can accommodate groups of pretty much any size - the ordering is all digital, brought right to your table. You can keep your tab separate or easily combine it with others. The music was 90's alt-rock, which seemed to match the clientele. More

  • Warren Hedderich

Perfect beer garden atmosphere. Plenty of TV’s for sporting events. Nice big umbrellas to keep you shaded. Ordering is all done through your phone by scanning a QR code on the table. Drinks come out super quick. The Happy Hour menu is also a very good good. Overall a great experience More

Be prepared to use the QR code, it would've been helpful to have the QR code on each side of the table or on a plastic menu holder so we could pass along to the people at our table and didn't hear music playing but would've been nice for more music than just everyone talking.

Something has happened at the Brig!!! Ambience? No change. Terrific pretzels? No change, delicious. Beer WOW as usual!!! WINE? What the hell happened! $8 for a shot glass of wine come on. Btw this IS what a wine glass looks like . Most disappointed . Try please

  • David Pakman

The best thing about Brig is the beergarden itself, outdoor tables, etc. The beer selection is mediocre for a supposed "beergarden," and the food was not great. Ordered very simple snacks, pretzels and fries, and both came out totally cold.

  • Alanna Cruz

Went her for a birthday party, you can reserve a table for you and your friends. Has a nice atmosphere and open space. There is live music playing rock. Drinks were pricey and good was not good. We got chicken tenders and nachos, and they

  • Raphael Tisch

Indoor / outdoor pub with a great selection of beers on draft, food and sports! Come in to watch the game, or get together with your friends outside around one of their fire pits. All ordering is done cashless through their QR app system,

  • Christine V

I went for happy hour with friends, and we got a few picnic tables outside. But that night was also trivia right next to us, and the announcer’s voice felt like it was in my ear. The volume was way too loud - especially since they had no

  • Brent gaffey

This bar is an open concept restaurant, it's a shame I was there in winter because the porch had been sectioned off. The bar was long and covered with TVs, which is great for sports. It is serious about being a German bar, importing its

  • Mary Anne Smith

Sports bar with 6 large screen tv’s broadcasting a variety of live games. Great for snacks and drinks while on the go. You order via an app - GoTab. This allows the staff to fill orders quicker than the usual ‘in person’ method. It was

  • John Zang

The Brig is a lively beer garden that offers a taste of Germany with its liters of brews and traditional eats. The spacious patio is perfect for gathering with friends and family, while the QR code ordering system adds convenience. The

  • Webb Moncure

This location has a great beer selection (including NA options) and bar food. It has a nice, clean, open, picnicky vibe. I wasn't impressed with the Nashville hot chicken sandwich which, although well-spiced, was an ill-conceived menu

  • Victoria Roessler

The staff and ownership at this bar are incredible. We had an emergency and they all sprung into action immediately, providing water, ice and whatever else we needed (and refunding our tabs, which was extremely unnecessary). The owner

  • Dustin Williams

Nice low-key spot with great food. We stopped in after a show for the first time. Staff was very nice. Our orders arrived quickly. They had plenty of MLB games on the TV's . We had a nice visit. Keep it up!

  • Alisa Carr

The Brig is a fantastic spot for a casual night out. The atmosphere is vibrant, and they offer a wide selection of beverages. It's a popular hangout for locals and visitors alike.

  • Scott Maynard

I got the big pretzel and the chips and salsa and it was good to eat. The horseradish sauce is very hot so be careful. It cleared my nose right up More

  • Puro Domum

Bad pub food and even worse service. The atmosphere was ok. Seems like a good place to stop for a beer but definitely don’t plan on eating here. More
