K	Kylee Kotyk on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So yum! We came for lunch and shared one of the meat trays. Everything was incredible ? so tender and juicy! The fries are amazing, the cornbread was amazing… we loved all of it. I had a flight of beer to sample a few different ones! Also massive props for being dog friendly too!
C	Corley Bonk on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I loved the the communal atmosphere in this place. The ability to order flight of beer allows us to try a wide variety of beer. Our waitress Thalice was great and answered all of our questions
S	Stephen & Mary Hodges on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Came for the beer but will have to return for the BBQ some time soon. Stopped at Prairie Dog Brewing on a sunny Labor Day afternoon for a couple of beers on their patio and was not disappointed. The staff were efficient and friendly getting us to a table as soon as one became available and a big plus is the patio welcomes dogs and is well spaced so the four legged visitors can chill in peace. We tried the Coconut Brown Ale, the Belgium Blonde Ale and the Garrison Red and all were excellent especially when helped along with plate of loaded sweat potato fries (pictured). Viewing the satisfied customers chowing down on some amazing BBQ fare we need to return with an appetite. It is worth noting that the place does not promote tipping - posted on a big blackboard above the bar - stating their staff are paid a real living wage. Tips are still appreciated but not sought after - if only this concept would take off in other establishments.
K	Kennedy French-Toller on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely amazing brewery! Great food and great drinks. What I'm most impressed with is that the owners pay everyone a living wage, so they advertise that tipping is optional. I mentioned how great I thought it was to our waitress and she said the owners actually cared and it was better than any other place she's worked. A fantastic place to support. They also have individual bathroom stalls which is fantastic!
T	TheFlipguy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Top notch craft beers and great atmosphere. The staff here are very friendly as well as very efficient! I also love the fact that tipping is not required here and they are proud to say it (they have it posted on a blackboard at the bar)!! More places should definitely follow suit!!! I love how this place is in a warehouse and they didn’t hide that fact with the interior design. They have a good selection of beer here and the craft beer made in-house is top notch. We got their burger here and “the burnt pieces” (the burnt pieces was on special). Overall the food was ok. There was nothing special with the burger but I guess that is not their specialty. I found the actual burger to be dry. I was also a bit disappointed with the burnt pieces. From the photo shown on one of their bar screen it appears that the burnt pieces would have different type of meat but I guess they only had one type when we went. The sauce was a bit too much for my liking as well I wished the sauce was just one the side so you can tailor it to your taste. Again, they photo on the screen showed this to be dry….
M	Mo Olumide on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a nice place to hang out with friends casually. The beer is brewed in-house, I think, and they have an assortment of drinks and cocktails for everyone. I had a burger and my friend had the chicken wings. Everything tasted really good. The 3 stars is because we had a small issue with the seating arrangement as everyone was clustered in one area. We requested to sit somewhere else but a stern, older man said no. My friend was very tempted to walk out in that moment, but I pacified him because I couldn't be bothered to look up another place to hangout ??‍♀️ Beyond that, our server was really nice. The food was good. Ample parking space as well.
S	Sarah Sociables on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I’ve been here 3 times and it’s consistently been good. In my most recent visit I was most impressed with the size of their beer list!! So many to try. My bf and I got two flights of 6 beers and there were still many we didn’t get to. Next time! Note: tip is included in the menu pricing. So no need to tip here. Some people love it, others hate it but just be aware that’s their policy! Oh, and it’s family friendly! Which was amazing because it’s tough to find a fun place that allows kids. My friends have 2 three year olds so booster seats and a kids menu were extremely helpful.
J	John William Wade on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is quite the cavernous place to feast on BBQ. The servers do a really good job of keeping up with the patrons and never letting their glasses go empty. There are many delightful beers on tap to compliment any of the succulent BBQ meats they provide. The variety of meat here is refreshingly varied and prepared very well. The portions were a little smaller than I had hoped for. The 2 person sampler seemed more like a 1 person sampler. It tasted great though. It would also be great to have more visual aides for their sauces that are available. It sometimes felt like work trying to understand what they serve abd what sides are available. If you are a repeat customer it probably gets easier. It is certainly easy to see the building and find parking too.
