Visited here in August ’09. Corporate brewpub atmosphere - the patrons could care less if the beer is hand crafted. Very nice setting - lots of wood and brick, fireplaces etc. Have their four or five regulars on tap with a few rotating seasonals. Food is excellent and the service is very attentive. Beer is corporate brewpub quality - brewed to the masses and palatable.

As all the Granite City restaurants in the Twin Cities are new, they are clean and well kept. The ambiance is a cross between a typical sports bar and small group, after work watering hole. Televisions display the current college or pro sports game and are visible from any seating location. Service is provided by mostly high school aged wait staff. Alcohol is delivered by an over 21-year-old. Service is good but attention to detail could improve (to be expected with high school kids, I guess). A small selection of micro brewed beers, which are delicious, the Brother’s Benedict Bock being my favorite followed by the Duke of Wellington IPA. The selection of micro brewed beers includes seasonal beers as well. The food is delicious with large portions. Prices are very reasonable. The restaurant is relatively child friendly with a diverse selection offered on their children’s menu.
