“around the corner from my hotel this was convienent for a quick dinner and beer. Typical BJ’s with around 7 of their own offering plus about another 20 guest taps. Food was okay.“

“located in a small strip mall, it is actually quite a large place inside. 50 beers on tap and a decent bottle list. Food menu was pretty large and the usual pub grub. I had 3 local texas pours. Came out to around $14.00. Pretty legit place for a few ticks.“

“I was impressed by the food and service here. Very kid friendly. Should be reclassified as a restaurant as their "house" beers are brewed by St. Arnolds. Judging from some of the older reviews this is probably a good thing.“

“Nice place for a beer before or after an Allen Americans hockey game or even the rec league. Seating inside and out and the staff has a general knowledge of the brews they serve. There is always something new every time I go in there. Updated in 2015: still have a nice selection of beers but the service is getting worse.“

“Attached to the parking garage across from the Allen Event Center. Nice tap selection and the food was pretty good. Not a great beer bar by any means, but the best beer selection in the village and a nice place to go if you are killing time before going to the Event Center.“

“Not a huge selection of brews but enough to keep me in good supply through dinner. Like Mar said, it was dim in there but they did have the blinds open so I didn’t have to whip out a flashlight. Several options for food.“

“Typical BJs with the same selection as most other D/FW BJs but this one is close to my lil’ brother’s house in McKinney. They were out of the current seasonal when I went but since it’s a new location I’ll cut ’em some slack.“

“I love their selection. No better than Mr G’s down in Plano but saves me a drive. They always have Chimay Tripel, which is useful if you’re looking for that special Yuletide glow... Also Bombardier is much appreciated, or maybe a mix-and-match from US microbreweries. Any place that stocks several Avery brews is special in my book. Staff very helpful, store feel is relaxed and comfortable. Great wine selection with helpful staff, in case we’re allowed to mention that on ratebeer.com...“

“I think the food is ok. Basic selection of beers with a small selection of their own brews which are simple but tasty. Worth a visit and they have nice drink specials they run.“

“Went on a Saturday for brunch. Place was almost empty. Our server was excellent, good looking and knew something about beer. Food was very decent, however, the beer and beer selection was only so-so.“

“Very dark bar, smoking only inside the bar. Took 5 minutes to get both bartenders to notice me (crowd of 5 including myself). They do have their own beer on tap and it’s not the greatest stuff either.“

“Meh. The bar section of the restaurant was very dark. All the shades drawn and an eerie red glow coming from the beer coolers. Ordered the sampler and tried what they had on tap. It was hard to judge the appearance because of the off colors in the joint. Food was good, had a steak for a decent price. Most of the beer was hum-drum though.“

“Sat in the bar and had the sampler. All but one beer listed on the ’availability’ board was available. Waitress was nice. Beers was the same stuff I’ve had over and over again but there were two I hadn’t had before. Blech on the beer. The food at the Two Rows in Houston is pretty good I’m assuming the same here but I didn’t eat at this location.“

“This is a brand new store that just recently opened. The same decient beer selection that the other Market Streets have, except this one has a very large wine seletion, I think they focus more on that all though I know for a FACT the the people that look over it prefer beer....They are very helpful if they see you (The store is floored out to where their desk has the best view of wine with the beer being on the other side of the wall.“

“I sat at the (smoking) bar and asked the bartender what Two Rows beers were on tap. She told me none! Evidentially they just started serving beer and had no brews from their own brewery! The tap beers were cheesy!“

“Classic chain place, less warm than others. When I was there they were not brewing and they were selling mainstream beers (Shiner...).“

“they do not have any of their own beers at this location. the tas are what you would find at a bennigans plus a paulaner tap. the bartender will put a lemon in it if you don’t watch him, the savage. yuppie trendy mid 30’s crowd that is disturbing, made me think of how to sterilize the whole damn crowd. i will not be back.“

“The Two Rows beers are no longer brewed here. The beer selection is quite poor now as is everything about this place.“
