Is this place any good? Dh looked over the menu last night on allears and he liked what was on it.

My DH and I ate there last September and loved it. Service was a little egh..., but the food was great. We both had steak.

Good to know.

Ty that's what dh was looking at. He is a steak person. So I guess I'll put it on the list.

BRG? Won't go back. Tried this more than once hand had very poor service and just OK food each time. With all the other choices at WDW, there's no reason to subject yourself to the indifference you'll get there.

I can't get enough of the nachos here, actually! The service reminds you that you're not at a "Disney" restaurant, but it's do-able in a pinch. You should at least try it once.

We love the microbrews available at BRG.

We like BRG. I often use this place in a pinch when we are wanting to eat last minute without ADRs.
We have always had good food and service. Their Beer Cheese Soup is GOOD. (And I don't like beer.)

We learned the hard way that it can be hit-or-miss.

On our trip before last, we had a wonderful meal there. Everything was very tasty and we couldn't wait to go back.

On this past trip, it was the complete opposite. I had been so looking forward to it and my meal was awful! I had the hazelnut crusted chicken and it was so poorly prepared. The meat hadn't been prepped correctly so there was gristle and tendon left on it, which made for some yucky bites. The chicken, coating, and sauce had very little flavor, and what was there was washed away by runoff water from poorly drained, completely bland vegetables.

My hummus appetizer was great and my cheesecake was incredible, but that entree was just disgusting. I did tell them about it, and while they were apologetic, I didn't really feel like waiting around for another one or a replacement. It was a DDP trip, so it's not like I was going hungry.

It's highly unlikely we'll be back anytime soon. There's just too much good food in that area to even risk and icky meal.

My family and I ate here a few years ago. I remember the food being good and the service doesn't stand out to me as being great. If you eat there try and get a table outside. It is quieter than inside plus you can people watch if your into that! Also we tried the micro brews and they were good.

DH and I usually eat there once a trip. I wouldn't eat indoors. It doesn't seem very attractive to me, and smelled a little musty when I went in.

DH likes the beers.there. I like the cashew chicken salad. I think one flaw is that they don't serve french fries.

Try it once, and decide for yourself.

We *love love love* this place. I mean it's a brewpub. But the "pub grub" is good, the beer is good, AND it's family friendly. And if you ask nicely, you can even get a tour of the brewery.

We often go more than once during our trip, if only to have a late night pint.

We usually stick to burger and beer...thought the burger was quite good.
