I've been here 2 times and ready to leave a review. I visit all breweries I can find, so Broad Brook was on my list. The place can be described as a restaurant with a brewery - you can expect good food and full service here. Nice design decision is that you can check out brewing tanks from the inside.
As a brewery, the place is average. Don't get me wrong, beers are fine, but nothing great. I can mention Smoked Rye Lager (out of rotation already) and a Baltic Porter as a couple of memorable ones. The rest are perfectly fine to sip, but they would hlbe hard to remember, in my opinion. On the photo, you can see a beer flight of a stout, Jigawatts DIPA and 2 lagers (which are pretty good for lagers).
The food is excellent. I want to mention their Drunken Swine pizza separately, as it's just delicious. All the other items we tried were excellent as well - Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla and Smoked Salmon Salad are on the photo. The place itself is a one big room with little separation. Although about 3 more tables are located near the entrance, before the main room.
If you search for a place to have a good food and several beers, then this is the place. If you, like me, like to try new beers only, then this place is fine to check out one...
Read moreThe guy server sat us and right off the bat was like you can't sample or have a beer till you order food which needs to be an appetizer or meal..etc.. Which I was fine with. My husband and I ordered food and about 10min later recieved our beers than our pretzel. Never once did this gentleman ask would you like another beer? Hows the food? Want anything else? Once we finished our beer we sat for about another 10min until he decided to come over and that's when we asked for the check. As we were getting ready to leave a couple just walked in sat down and was receiving samples of beer right when they sat down? So I guess they treat every customer different? Let's just say my husband and I will never return..its unfortunate because the place is very nice just wish we were treated as nicely as the other couple. Or even treated good at all would...
Read moreBroad Brook Brewing Company is about 10 minutes off the interstate, and it's absolutely worth a little detour. At first, it feels like you're going to be nestled in among a bunch of warehouses, but the establishment sits on its own lot, and the outdoor seating overlooks a great little green space. Bonus that the planes from Bradley International Airport provide some entertainment every 10-15 minutes or so. There's plenty of room inside this spacious brewery, a nice sized bar, and a bunch of tables. We were greeted by friendly staff members and were seated right away on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Plenty of great selections are on tap, and their food is very good too (we had pizza, which was awesome). On our way out, we grabbed some beers to go as well. I'd highly spending some time here, it's...
