Small selection, to me. I am not a fan of their standard beers, and usually only go to try new brews. Parking can be very hard as they do not have enough spaces. Smoking sucks. All of the food I have had has been tasty, well prepared, and presented hot. Service is average. As with many places I feel like they are always around when you don’t need anything, and MIA when you do. Nice TVs.

This is lively place which is big and open with a very large oval shaped bar. Even tho its busy, there is lots of room for your own space. A friendly atmosphere and a family affair. Reminds me quite a bit of Marzoni’s in Allison Park near Pittsburgh. Lots of separate dining booths. Look is new, quite clean and almost sterile. Big outside dining area on a deck. Lots of really good looking eye candy. My bartender was very attentive. The place is busy yet not crowded. Decent size samples for an affordable price. Food fare is hot but just above average.

Stopped in here for a bite to eat and to see what they had on in terms of seasonals. I ordered a burger and it was very solid. Had three seasonal beers on. A belgian, biere de garde and spiced up winter style hefe. Beer was solid and food was well done. I sat in the dining room and the atmosphere was pretty standard brewpub. Hopefully they get good brewers in here and keep things interesting. Worth a stop if you are in the area.

Similar in appearance to the Chadds Ford location. Beer ranges from average to outstanding, depending upon which seasonals are available. Honesty, I’ve grown tired of the baseline sampler here, but once in awhile you’ll find gems like Vuuve and some of the varietal IPA series. I don’t visit here as much as I used to, but the food and service have always been good.

Reasonable selection beers at the Malvern site but could have been better. Tried the Hefe and Pale Ale. Hefe was OK but not great - not quite sharp enough for me. The Pale Ale was very good. Tried a pizza and what a rip-off! Cost $11 but probably no more than $1 worth of ingredients - I guess it was trying to be trendy! Basically, a 10 inch round piece of bread with a splash of toppings!

I stopped by for lunch and a couple of beers as I was passing through on lunch. First impression was it was very spacious and new. Food was OK and beers were average for craft fare.

I asked the bartender for an IPA and she replied, "What is that?" When I told here what it was , she asked me "if it was non-alcoholic." My 12yo called her an amatuer. Hopefully, it will be better the next time we visit.

Looks just like their other location. Nice number of seasonals on tap (Hefe, RIS, Doppelbock, Pumpkin and Oktoberfest). If you are in the area, a stop at McKenzies is a must.

Nice food and service...there were some protesters outside which I thought was very itneresting...then asst. brewer came out and talked to us, but he didn’t seem to be on the same level as my esteemed colleague and myself, but he was nice and gave us some biere de mars.

Very much like the original in Chadds Fords near the DE line, a lot of the same colors & decor inside, pretty much the same food menu as well, had the same year-round beers as the original as well, very roomy inside with a spacious bar area, very attentive & friendly service, food was exellent was usually, big sandwiches, large portions, great beer sampler with all nine beers included, an excellent experience, definitely worth visiting again and again
