Cool little place with a chill vibe. Outdoor seating, live music, and good beer. Really cannot beat that combination. Swing in... for a craft beer, get some BBQ, and enjoy the ambiance. Read more
What a good find! Just needed a meeting place after arriving at the bus stop from Miami. The bartender Joe (and all employees I... encountered) made me feel like a local (I?m from st Pete.) they had every type of seating option you could want, fans outsideand a nice breeze. The beer was fantastic. I tried 4 of their beers, all very good and cold. And the magners pear cider was agood option for non-beer drinkers. They don?t have a kitchen so I thought the food options might be sketchy, but the foodoffered was delicious. Good burger and brisket, both well above average. Overall, a well earned 5/5 and a place I?d go out of myway to visit or recommend to friends in the area. Cheers! Read more
Huge open beer garden with band playing. Nice atmosphere, great beer selection. Parking on side of building was full but there... is additional parking towards the back a little further down the side road. Jesse was very helpful answering questions. Woulddefinitely highly recommend! Read more
I just stopped by to check the place out because there's a band that I like playing there next Friday. I'm not a big microbrew... guy but this is the kind of place that I like. Laid back atmosphere and from the looks of the food coming from the barbecuetruck it's a great place to eat as well. The guys sitting across from me loved their burgers and wings. The outside bar wasn'topen yet so I went inside and Matt hooked me up. He spent the time to give me some samples based on the beer that I like. Greatguy and the beer which was one of theirs was fantastic. I'm really looking forward to going back there next week to see a bandcalled Saving Able. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a no frills laid back beer joint. Read more
We played Big Top Brewing company on July 31, 2021. Turnout was GREAT! The smoked chicken wings just fell off the bone, it was... like, a flavor grenade went off in our mouths! The flight of beer we selected was on point and the staff was friendly! They'vesince moved to a new location, but we're looking forward to playing there again! We've included some pics and videos of what itlooked like way back when... Worth a visit, even if it's only once! Read more
After a long work, googled events in the area and saw one of our favorite bands *RYE Road* was playing nearby. We are always... excited to visit a new establishment. What a cool space to hang out and listen to music. I didn't get many pictures inside sinceI was outside the majority of my time here. The inside housed many tables and they were all full. The outdoor area had tables onthe deck and picnic tables and chairs near the stage on a lower level. There were bars both inside and outside. They have alimited wine menu and beer... no liquor. They also had a food truck on site since they didn't have a menu outside....not sureabout inside but I don't recall seeing waitresses/waiters or anyone with food. Prices reasonable. Read more
Great atmosphere both for the inside area and outside. They have live music on the weekends and lots of food truck options for... tasty eats and snacks. Really big lawn area with tons of picnic tables for seating options with a fun and lively atmosphere. Theinside area and bar is dark with a nice cozy atmosphere. Both bars (inside and out) have nice stained wood which is nice to thefeel and creates an inviting a aesthetic. Beers are pretty good as well. I had their NE IPA which was nice and hoppy and cloudyas well as their amber/red ale which was a little heavier than expected and very carameley and malty (had it not been summerthis would be a great option). The blue berry nitro stout they had on tap was velvety, sweet, and everything you wanted from astout. I?ll be back for that by itself. I would definitely make the point of coming here sometime if you are in the area or passthrough. Read more
