We had a crew dinner tonight with seven people at 7:00 PM, and we were really looking forward to it. Once we were all seated, it took ages for the service to even acknowledge us. Two menus for a group of seven isn’t exactly generous. By 8:00 PM, we finally placed our order. Even the drinks took a long time to arrive.
Then we were told that fries were sold out, so four of our burgers had to go without. On a Saturday night at 8 PM? Come on, do your homework. We suggested replacing the fries with a pizza, and the response? A single (yes, one!) slice of pizza for the entire table to share. That doesn’t really cut it. The service was trying, but when things aren’t running smoothly, they just aren’t and when you are understaffed you not gonna turn the tide around on a busy saturday evening. I don’t know if this place is capable of doing better, and honestly, I don’t care to find out—I won’t be coming back, and I can’t recommend it. The high rating? No idea how that happened.
That said, the burgers were good (especially with that tiny piece of pizza, lol), but the pasta and hot dog were disappointing, and the cheesecake was a total flop. I also can’t tell if this place wants to be a restaurant that serves beer or a pub that just happens to offer food.
To top it off, the bill was pretty steep for such a mediocre experience—this place isn’t exactly cheap. I know for sure our night would have been better somewhere else and that’s actually a sad...
Read moreI really don't like to write a bad review. Often I say nothing at all. But I just have to share my experience. It started by ordering a "pulled pork" sandwich (which was actually sliced pork.) It came with the meat literally cold. I first thought, huh .... maybe that's what they do. I walked it over to the open kitchen window and asked if the meat should be cold. The chef said no and offered to take care of it .... change it for something else or redo (to his credit.). They bring it back and said the left the cole slaw off it because that is what made it cold. Now this ticks me off. Now you are, essentially saying the meat was fine, it was just the cole slaw that made it cold. I have been to the South where these sandwiches originate. The pork is pulled and hot and the cole slaw is cool. Don't disrespect me by saying the meat was fine. Second, this place is overpriced for Hoi An. The beer and cocktails are marginal at best. I tried two different hazies and they were .... not good. Too bad, I wanted to like it. The sliced pork sandwich was actually not to bad when they prepared it right and brought me some cole slaw to build it myself. Bill was way too high for Hoi An. My fault .... you don't go to Hoi An for barbecue or craft brew. Will still to local food and local lager from now...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of visiting 7 Bridges Taproom in Hoi An and it was an amazing experience! The first thing that caught my attention was the superb selection of beers on tap - over 35 craft beers, ciders, wines, and ciders to choose from, all of which were absolutely delicious. In addition to the great drinks and food, the taproom's location in the heart of Hoi An's heritage old town architecture was truly special. The traditional buildings and charming streets added to the overall ambiance of the place and made it a unique and memorable experience. Despite its prime location, the prices at 7 Bridges Taproom were very reasonable, making it an accessible spot for both tourists and locals alike. Overall, the atmosphere of the taproom was very welcoming and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you're looking for a great spot to enjoy a cold beer, some tasty food, and soak in the heritage old town architecture in Hoi An, I highly recommend checking out 7 Bridges Taproom. It's a gem of a place that shouldn't be missed! Pro tip : use Google translate for the...
