Good drinks, bad energy. Brewster’s has lost its easygoing soul. Used to be one of my favorite laid-back spots — the vibe’s a total buzzkill now, thanks to one staff member who seems determined to a bring hostility to the table every time.
Stopped in with friends for a simple afternoon drink. Literally canned beverages. Asked if they had something “like White Claw,” got offered only Truly — even though a big poster advertising what I wanted was right behind me. When I asked to swap not a minute later, the bartender came over to our table, essentially forced me to keep the Truly and snapped that somebody had to pay for this (now open canned beverage), as she stormed away with attitude.

I discovered this little place above the Brewer Motor Inn. First thought the name meant it would be a local brew pub. Instead it is just a friendly little restaurant with great food and even better service. Everything my friend and I had was delicious. Well, almost everything. Neither of us cared for the the french fries as they were overdone. Chili was great, be aware a bowl of chili is a full-size bowl. The boneless buffalo wings were tender and tasty. I had their chicken cordon bleu sandwich, and was very pleased. I spent about $20 on food and came away full. If you're looking for local and delicious, go...
