Coldwater Mountain Brewpub — Restaurant in Anniston

This was our first time here since the new ownership. I ordered the smoked wings (naked) with a side of parmesan truffle fries. It was all delicious. The wings were perfectly smoked, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Also, there were 14 wings! The fries were crispy and had a great flavor. My husband had the special Texan Burger and sweet potato tots. The burger patty was huge and was cooked well. He really enjoyed it and said the house bbq sauce that was on it was thin, but tasty. He really enjoyed his tots too. He had two beers that he liked with his meal. Service was good and prompt. Now for the cons: the singer/ entertainment was not great and was loud enough that you couldn't have a conversation with the person across the table from you without almost yelling. Will definitely try to go back when there's no live musician. We tried the banana pudding for dessert. The menu touts it as homemade and like your grandma made. If this is how your grandmother made banana pudding, you have lived an unfulfilled life. It was "vanilla pudding" (it's in quotes because it really didn't have any flavor-not even vanilla), no vanilla wafers except the one whole one and some crumbs on top for garnish, whipped cream and some gray, slimy bananas at the bottom. This was NOT Southern homemade banana pudding. This was banana pudding for people who don't know how to make custard or meringue. We couldn't even finish it because it was not even remotely appetizing. Try another dessert. We will be back and we will try other menu...

Excellent food once we got it. We were seated fairly quickly on a busy sat night. Once seated we sat probably 12-15 min before being greeted and drink orders taken. Waitress not friendly at all, but not really an issue there. Took us 20-25 min to get 2 apps and 1 entree. All food was good and worth the wait EXCEPT the mile high wedge. I love love love a wedge so I ordered this and was pretty excited about it. It was NOT manageable at all. Instead of a normal wedge, the romaine is literally stalked and piled on the plate in huge pieces, bacon crumbles, feta crumbles and red onion on bottom. Now after the preparation I had to make to eat it, which took 10 min, it was very good. Just messy as you can imagine. Not worth the time to prep it though. Just stick to the normal wedge. Easy peasy. Several waitresses standing behind the bar ignoring everyone didn't sit right either. The nice guy with long hair who brought our food out was the most pleasant thing about the whole visit. Very nice guy. Good food too. Just dont order the mile high wedge. The rougaroux was awesome and so were...

The food is delicious. We are here twice this week. The first time went great. Server was amazing. Especially with 15 of us there. The burnt ends, to die for. The wings…. AMAZING! Also get the truffle fries and nachos.

BUUUUTTT…. We went again tonight, wasn’t quite the same experience. The food was again delicious, but the service struggled. To start, there was a huge disconnect between the servers and the kitchen. The food came out at very different times. No one got their food at the same time. It was disappointing to be one person eating, and waiting for food to come out. Also, they were out completely out of pasta and wings which is what some of us really wanted.

We also had to wait a bit for clean utensils as they had zero when we got there. Our food came out prior to having clean utensils.

Please also find some type of ventilation system. The smoke from the kitchen was overwhelming in the guest area.

Everyone has bad days, which is why I still gave a 4 star. The food that is available is delicious!!! Should absolutely give it a try!...
