As a professional restaurant and hotel reviewer, I must highlight this review is based on 3 collective experiences over the course of a year.
It is also based upon my own personal discussions with local folks who have visited The Brew Drinkery in Granbury TX.
This place is definitely in a class of itās own and is located just a stoneās throw from the famous downtown Granbury Square.
You cannot compare it to anything else in the area!!!
It has an eclectic vibe, with newly painted bright colors, fun decor and even a front yard patio complete with covered picnic tables where you can share a fresh baked pizza and a pint of your favorite craft beer with friends.
This is not a restaurant where you are seated and served, but rather an authentic and fun drinkery where you can meander outside, sit at the bar and watch the game or simply hang out in a cozy place and sip on your favorite coffee drink. They have a succinct menu that pairs well will their craft beers as well as their non-alcoholic root beer (my favorite).
The food was excellent all 3 times. Iāve had their cauliflower crust pizza as well as their hand tossed pizza, elotes and southwestern style bowl. Iāve had no complaints.
The only potential issue Iāve experienced was food availability during an unexpected crowd one evening. I cannot fault the venue for having an unexpected crowd. That was on one of the 3 visits.
We hosted a birthday party here 6 months ago and the owners and staff were super attentive to our needs, requests and any potential issues we ran into.
In light of staff issues, everyone we have encountered has been kind, helpful and professional. In over a decade of reviewing, I have to say ALL businesses have a lapse on occasion but we have yet to experience anything but quality customer service during our visits.
This is neither a 5-star bougie dining establishment nor is it a ābarā environment. It has a craft brewhouse feel with a comfy pub community and outdoor beer garden area to boot. They offer live music indoors, fun events and specials on food and drink, so check their social media page for upcoming events.
If good friends gathering to connect and sample some incredible craft beers and share a pizza (or not!) is your thing, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Brew Drinkery.
Alsoā¦come see the changes they have made and say hello to Ginger!
I recommend the St Arnoldās Rootbeer and the Prosciutto/Arugula pizza on cauliflower crust! Then again, Iām always looking for the extra thing. They did not disappoint!

Ā Ā Ā Read moreMy daughter and her husband were visiting from another country. They stopped in for brew and a bite and enjoyed it very much. They had an amazing attentive waiter who was very friendly. They enjoyed it so much we all decided to drop in for lunch. There were two waitresses there that day. No one acknowledged us when we came in and sat down. After about 10-15 minutes, (they were both standing behind the bar chatting.) Finally, my son-in-law went and stood at the bar. Still, no one acknowledged him. He eventually got her attention and told her we were ready to order. He asked her for a beer recommendation and she told him she didnāt know as she had been on vacation for a week. ??? He had asked about an amber beer and she told him she liked the stout. Shouldnāt she know at least what is a big seller? Long story shorter, he made his choice and when she delivered it, the beer was in a small glass. When he questioned that and told her when he ordered it the 1st time he was there it came in a tall glass. Her response was, ā No it doesnātā. I was driving so I ordered a cappuccino. She had to go get fresh milk because it had spoiled. Our food was really good though! At the end of our meal when we were ready to pay, she told us to just go to the till and she would ring it up. My SIL told her he would prefer a ticket at the table. She said they donāt do that. He said they did the first time they came in. As a result, she got no tip. The waiter who had waited on them the first time came in shortly before we left. He was friendly and even remembered them! He is a keeper! She is not! BTW, my SIL currently owns a restaurant and has owned several bars and...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreLove Trivia Night, great and friendly crowd! Lots of regulars and they were very helpful. This was our second time to go to Trivia night. The first time we keep getting thrown off during the games but decided that we were not doing something correctly. Tonight, we thought we had the procedure down correctly but when we were into the 2nd game and had dropped from 7th place to 11th, we were thrown off again and unable to continue. As we were leaving, we were told not to use their internet as it could not handle all the people using it. Made sense but we were not aware that we were using their internet, thought it was the internet with our phone but perhaps when we scanned the code, it put us on their's, not sure. However, no one else appeared to be thrown off, just us. ( not once but twice) We love Trivia and I have played for years here and overseas. This is the only time I have ever had issues with a Trivia game. Again, important to re-state, this is a great place, friendly service and great customers but a bit of help regarding why we had these difficulties would have been greatly appreciated. We probably won't return because we have had same issue with different phones. But please go.....other than these issues, I highly recommend. The pizza...
