Classic gastropub and quality drinks. Sometimes the food is a little too complicated - for example, a straight up burger with high quality ingredients is all you need. Four stars for the food, five for doing god's work on the Ridge. A gem of the neighborhood

This was my third visit here and I still love it. This time I came for the Super Bowl. Got there early for a seat at the bar and was waited on by a very knowledgeable and friendly bartender. The cocktails are made to order, not tap ones which are becoming more and more popular. They were fantastic. The food is incredible. I can't speak for the beer but they have a sizable menu to choose from. I love it here.

This crisp and clean pub was a delightful find! The menu had some terrific vegan options and the prices were reasonable. Everything we tried was delicious, including the whole chicken wings and the seitan wings, both of which we loved, and perhaps my new favorite - french fries with beer cheese! The cocktail menu also had several zero-proof modification options which were perfect. The service was on point and we felt well taken care of despite the place being full. Highly recommend the next time you find yourself on the Ridge!

My second visit to this brewery restaurant. The beers are so good and the chicken sandwich is delectable! The Mac n cheese is elevated by the bread crumb topping. I loved the pumpkin ale. The deviled eggs were too vinegary for my taste and the empanada was bland. The service was great and the setting couldn't be better. Next time I'd like to try the creative cocktails.

On a Tuesday night we get to our concert venue and-show was cancelled during our drive to it. So out to eat on our 41 anniversary! And let the city traffic die down... discovering this place on Yelp. I really enjoyed the choices of creative cocktails-I really enjoyed the fresh flavor of the Electric Circus-see pic. It was made with carrot juice and ginger simple syrup and Yum! Appetizer I chose was tempura mushrooms- not oily crunch perfect and good mushroom inside-not full of hot water... but way too salty. I had the green salad with grilled shrimp. I prefer creamy dressing and asked for spicy ranch but the greens came already soaked in the white wine vinaigrette -I dislike vinegar and dislike soaked salad but I can see many people would like it. It wasn't as vinegar tasting as most. The shrimp were jumbo grilled very well. DH had some Korean barbecue wings -whole wings style were good. He also got the Brisky Boy -beef and sour kraut sandwich and enjoyed saving half for tomorrow. Served with homemade salty chips ( chefs everywhere-cut it out with the salt! If your customers live longer your restaurant will last longer! If your food tastes better with salt you can try bartending). He did a flight of 4 beers a pumpkin an IPA and 2 special cask ales- Beer snob DH Said they were very good. Now the KeyLime Pie- eh. It had the consistency of dry cheesecake good tart flavor and a twist with a coconut whipped cream. Key lime should have a more gelatin consistency though. The place was not too busy on a Tuesday so the ambiance was quiet for a brew pub- I appreciate not having to yell What!!?? While eating and talking. Looks like a good sized patio area too. Staff was great- no long wait and with lots of extras not on the menu they were all there to explain anything. I like learning something new in the cooking world.

Yummy! That's the word that came to mind! Cool place. Staff were great! Very hospitable. Ordered the Maine Missels with a side of fries. Loved the fries. Came with sides of beer cheese and Alabama bbq sauce! Had a Smokey paprika seasoned. Loved it Mussel were great. Love the addition of cilantro. Brought out a nice freshness to the dish. Suggestions: offer a side bowl for the shells! I had to be creative and use my underliner ! But overall glad I came

New Ridge Brewing has amazing service and great food. To start off, the beer selection is fantastic. The skillet mac and cheese is made with a delicious, melty beer cheese. The crab sliders were a special on the menu and were perfect to share. The sliders had a nice tangy flavor that came from the aioli. The piri piri chicken salad sandwich had nice spice and the vegetables within the pita worked well with grilled chicken to make the dish refreshing. The catfish within the Captain Campbell's sandwich was cooked well and the slaw to accompany it was not overpowering (I'm not the biggest fan of slaw but this one was delicious). Overall, we had a great experience and enjoyed good food-- can't wait to go back sometime soon.

Got into town for a business trip after a long cross-country flight. Hangry, tired, and not looking for the chain restaurants. Looked online and saw that a brew pub was nearby, so headed over there. Greeted at the front door, and we immediately were seated. Very good first impression. Service was on point, food and beer were both very good. I started off with a Moscow Speedwolf (Russian Imperial Stout) and for dinner, chose the PA Hot Chicken Sandwich with an order of Ridge Fries. Yummy , definitely a very good choice.
