Eight Oh Brew — Restaurant in Ludlow

The bar looked great! We were extremely excited to try it out, and I was blown away by the choices of tap beer. However, the first bartender was extremely rude and short he had a chip on his shoulder when my husband said that he had forgotten his cards in his car and didn’t even allow him to offer to pay in cash.

Eight Oh Brew in Ludlow is one of the best bars I’ve been to in Vermont. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, with a cool downstairs location that feels like a hidden gem. There’s always plenty of seating, whether you’re there for a casual drink or a night out with friends.
