Average neighborhood dive. Not a place I would drive by and feel compelled to have a drink and a meal. Having a location in a section of town that is on the decline I think they need to make you feel more inviting. and brighten up their footprint. We came in the door stood waiting to be seated for three or for minutes The bar staff started looking at us as we some strange creature . One young lady finally said just grab a booth , I asked to have a table then it turned into a Monty python episode and there was a huge problem. Finally we were told tot sit any where. We grabbed a table. We got a seat and waited a bit and a table that came in and was seated had a waitress come and take their order . A waitress then zipped over an dropped off our menus. We ordered pretty quickly but there was no asking if we had been there if there special that night . When we ordered our food it came out really quick. We decided that on this trip we were just go to have a dinner of shared apps. The food ,a pretty large Pretz braid with a beer cheese and a mustard dipping sauce , loaded fries and lava wings. The fries were loaded , stuffed and plentiful. The wings were good and the name was misleading. We ordered two of the mohito specials that weren't too special. The food arrived pretty quick- really quick. But no silverware or napkins . It took several minutes to flag down a waitress and get silverware. The service picked up .we had another round of drinks with a really tasty limoncello cake and an ok s'mores lava cake I think it wes called. We would could have been easily talked trying another drink if any of the waitresses were trying. You work in what looks to be in what seems to be an interesting environment. We spoke to four wait staff Devin was the most Interested and involved . The actions of the waitress were up and down. I know they have been open a while but it felt you were in resturant that had a bunch of people just turned loose poorly trained but trying hard It was triva night we stayed, you could tell a couple groups were locals that this was there Thursday night regular hangout. We will be back to try some of their brewed beers and more of the menu. Sweep your dump out front and train...
Read moreI had starred Snitz Creek in Google Maps at some point in the past, but for some reason never got to stop in, most likely because I had gotten there too late the previous time and they were already closed. It was definitely worth the wait! I had the pleasure of being served by Devin, who clearly knows his stuff and provided exactly the right amount of pleasant conversation during my solo visit. I started out with the goal of trying maybe two or three brews that night, but while enjoying a pint of the Counterfeit Cologne Kolsch, I made the wise decision to opt for a flight after that so I could try as many beers as possible. It's extremely rare it is for me to like every single beer I try, but those guys are clearly doing it right! Every beer I tried was amazing, including the Blueberry Cream Ale, which I wasn't sure about because I'm not a huge fan of fruit-forward beers. Thankfully, another customer convinced me to give it a try so I did. Despite my initial hesitation, it turned out she was right...that one went down very nicely indeed. Devin also gave me a taste of their unique creation, the BlueBreaker, which will surely be on my list during future visits. It's a work of art in a glass!!! I generally prefer darker beers, so I ended the night with the Imperial Vanilla Porter. Just, wow! If I weren't driving, I would absolutely have gone for a full pint to be sure, and very likely a second. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Snitz Creek and will absolutely be back as soon as my travel schedule takes me back...
Read moreI was on a date Sunday night 9/24/22. If it wasn't for the food being half way decent the experience would've been awful. There was 4 people at the bar, which I am assuming were regulars, a table on the patio before we arrived and maybe one later into our experience showed up, and a 4 top that showed up after us. Our experience was a lot of waiting. For what reason, I believe the bartender/server/whomever was intoxicated. We waited for about 10 minutes to get our drink order. Wasn't a long wait for those or our food order. When we were about half way through our meal we asked for a glass of water. When the water was finally brought we had had our dishes stacked at the end of our table, for about 10 minutes. He made a comment about if its not about beer he tends to forget which is what lead me to believe he was intoxicated on top of him drinking something I couldn't see from my spot. He was very nice and sincere but the service he provided to not only my table but the other patrons was a poor reflection on the establishment. When we asked to get our check, a couple at the bar that had come in had a couple beers and a quick bite had paid and that was what prompted him to get us our check. We were waiting about 15 minutes. He was not busy working but chatting up the bar and cooks. I'm a chef in the industry and I believe his behavior to be unprofessional. I would return again but only for the food. Great job to the cooks. You saved...
