BinaryBrewing.co — Restaurant in Beaverton

Until my last experience I really liked this place. Now I've told myself to stay away from this place. 🛑 The atmosphere is very nice with both indoor and outdoor seating.

The food is pretty good from what I remember.

The service was good however, on my last visit was pretty disappointing and quite frankly disrespectful.

I decided to sit outside for a change as the weather was pretty nice. I then watched the server come out and check on literally every table except for mine. She went by asking every party if they were doing okay and if there was anything they needed, but neglecting myself. Next she came out with drinks and plates of food for various tables. (I understand that nobody is perfect and everybody makes mistakes, so I wasn't mad at that point.) I said, "Excuse me!" With a quick glance she gave me a dirty look then brushed me off. I thought to myself, "Wow, that was pretty rude." So I got on my phone and called the business, while still sitting outside. I expressed my dissatisfaction to the man who answered the phone. He informed me that I was mistaken and that they only do counter service not tableside service. Now, I would have both believed and understood that had the server not come out and serve every other table aside from myself. After mentioning that to him over the phone his only response was, "Yeah, no we don't do that." If you ask me I think a more respectful and professional response would have been, "I'm so sorry about that sir. I definitely don't want you to feel neglected, left out or unwelcomed, so given the circumstances I will take care of you this one time but for future reference we only do counter service." That would have been completely fine. But since his response was pretty much go "F" yourself I decided that instead of helping them pay their rent by ordering more food and another beverage I would instead take every bit of my money elsewhere as I got up and walked out. Bye bye tip, bye...

I can't remember the name of the beer I got, but It was excellent. Brixton (one of the friendly barkeeps) recommended i try it since it's a type of hops that is very hard to brew with (it expires after 20 minutes of being plucked or something). I sampled and subsequently bought a 4 pack of the red ale, it's exceptional.

I also had the smash burger, which for $12 was a screaming deal. They make their pickles with a slightly sweet brine and it's a perfectly balanced burger. I highly recommend it. And for happy hour you can't beat a $6 burger! The fries are top notch too!

I want to say thank you to both Brixton and Tavish for letting me talk their ear off about the goings on in the world, and telling me about the business and just overall being some of the nicest people you can run across. It was such a treat meeting them.

You better believe I'm coming back. I honestly can't come back soon enough. But I really hope they decide to do a collaboration and brew some sours.

This place is quality through and through. Clean, fun,...

Very friendly staff. Fries could use more crispiness, higher temperature on fryer? They were still good. Smash Burger was the smashiest burger ever, with homemade pickles 😋 delicious. Will be back for their Portland Burger week burger, Smash Burger with hatch chilies. Kinda quiet from what I've seen, but the cool space (pinball, patio, side street location) will definitely bring people in once they know about it, especially when the condo building next door is finished. Get in there now before it's too crowded.

Re-edit 26.01.30 Mercury's Weiner Week! Delicious. I have been to a couple participating places and it's obvious some places don't care about the hotdog they put out (Migration Brewing) but I've always been super happy with everything I've eaten and drank here. Again, forgot to take a picture before I started eating. Just...
