Do NOT GO HERE. I repeat, do not go here... Ah yes.. The Brass Tap in Coral Springs.. what a place.. I had such high hopes for a great craft beer bar yet it failed so miserably. Just an FYI, I went here 4 times (giving them benefit of the doubt each time) Lets begin: Customer service - This is where this bar fails big time. Their bartenders know nothing about the craft beers they are serving. Their servers are rude and disrespectful. Their manager/owner has absolutely no respect/doesnt care for his customers. -Examples: The bartenders continually serve their beers in the wrong glassware.. I know this sounds dumb to most but when youre paying 10 dollars a beer I expect my imperial stout to be in a snifter, not a Chimay Goblet.. -I asked a server what a certain tap was, she walked away and never came back.. when I asked again she told me I was dumb for asking. -I asked a bartender what type of beer a certain draft was.. he told me a stout, instead it was a winter ale. Environment: I went here one Saturday night, the garage doors (their wall basically) were wide open.. now let me remind you that South Florida is 90 degrees even in the winter.. so yeah, everyone inside was sweating because the owner is too cheap to turn on the A/C. Menu: a craft beer bar with 70 taps would update their draft menu daily you would think, right? WRONG. This bar updates their menu (printed, online, iphone app and their chalk board) only once a week. Every time I go I ask for a beer on the menu, only to be told it isnt on tap anymore... this goes on for about 5+ beers till finally I give up and ask the server to just bring me a beer in that style. I'm sorry but there is zero reason why you can update a draft menu daily, even if its the chalk board or turn a TV into a scrolling menu! Last but not least.. I brought my concerns to the management/owners via email.. In reply I got "your statements about me couldn't be any further from the truth" and "I find some parts of your email to be off base", "not going to a bar over it is extreme in my opinion" FROM THE OWNER. Excuse me but arent you in the service industry? I give you my hard earned money (a lot of it for craft beers) and in return I get a good experience right? Apparently I'm wrong. Any owner who is willing to tell his customers to basically F' off is setting himself up for failure in the customer service industry.. Whatever happened to the customer is always right? Also take a look at the reply the owner sent someone on here.. pretty much sums up his email back to me, rude. Like I said, I gave this place multiple shots at succeeding but every visit got worse with time. I'll be avoiding this establishment and I hope you do too.

Great craft beer selection. Make sure you ask for specific brews. The wait staff did not know which beers were craft or major brewers. Draught and beware! The homemade potato chips are a good idea, but the oil tasted burned, nasty. Was a very unprofessional sight to see the young man behind the bar enjoying one of his favorite bottles while, apparently, working. Not cool! Know your beer when you enter here. The beers get a 5*, but the staff are below average,2*

Bartender David is awesome and really knows all about beers. He is very polite and helps you find exactly what you are looking for. You just need to tell him the flavor you like (spice or fruit) and he brings out the best from his collection. Food is fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this place. I will be back here for sure!!

WOB's little brother. The people who live in Northwest Coral Springs must be applauding the opening of this joint. There is no place like this in the area and it's badly needed. Nice selection of beers on tap and in the bottle. No where near the selection at WOB but who cares. They have the same sign up process as WOB. 15 bucks gets you a card, a shirt, and the ability to get points for different beers you order. Same as WOB except you don't get two free beers. Also you get 200 dollars at 300 beers instead of 500 beers at WOB. They actually serve small bites of food. We had the pretzels and Samuel Adams cheese dip. They were pretty tasty and very addictive. Service is where I thought this place excelled. Our bartender was John and he was a super solid dude. He was eager to get beers and had no issues with me trying samples of something on draft. The only issues I had was looking at the nail place as one Yelper mentioned. Also anyone who lives out here knows that on the weekends this plaza is a local hangout for the kids. It will be interesting to see this place is on a weekend night. I'm happy this place opened up and I can see myself becoming a regular because it's so much closer to my house than WOB. I recommend you stop by have some drinks and enjoy this beer oasis in NW Coral Springs. Remember to tell them that Dan sent you and Stay Thirsty.

A year ago I would have said not to bother....but they really have made an effort to listen to customer complaints about service and warm beer. Good experience the last couple of times, and a very polite staff at the bar. I'll look forward to their continuing progress.

On this my second visit, the beers on tap still don't seem to be properly chilled. The Brass Tap (Coral Springs version) doesn't seem to be at the same level as the one at Pembroke Gardens. I'm not sure what they do to keep the beer at a certain temperature, but it goes down luke-cold. It seems like the behind-the-bar service is still trying to find its groove as well. I had ordered a beer, along with my guest, and he lost track of me while continuing a conversation with the patrons at the other end of the bar. As he walked back toward us, he then remembered. On my first visit, there were three gents behind the bar, each of whom we're attending to me, which got confusing. I don't know ... I'm sure things will get better. The baked pretzels are really good. He brought out some yellow mustard for us, which was appreciated. I know this place specializes in beer, and I get that. You don't come here, primarily, to watch sports on TV. So asking the gentleman to flip on second-round coverage the Masters an hour into its TV coverage suggests to me that this isn't a place to watch live sports events. You're here to drink a wide variety of tap and bottled beers, and have good conversation with those around you, and this place facilitates that. It could very well be that my visits are not typical based on the solid Yelp reviews. As such, I would encourage you to give this place a try. I'm sure I'll return at some point to prove myself wrong and bump up the two-star rating.

I have been coming here since day one. This place is great! Every time I come in, I am warmly greeted and treated as though I'm part of the family. The beer selection here is amazing. With over 70 different beers on draft and hundreds more in the bottle, there is always something good from which to choose. If you're into craft beer, this is the place to come. The newly expanded food menu has some excellent selections. Occasionally I bring my service dogs in here and we sit on the couches outside. The bartenders always come out to greet the dogs and give them a bowl of water. I have met some wonderful people here and made some great new friends. A few of us have climbed to the top of the leader board in the Brew Crew club, and we have become quite the tight-knit group. I look forward to coming here as I always have a pleasant experience. I will definitely be checking in here more often.

I've had some time to really get to know this place. The menu is designed as upscale bar food. I've had most of it. It's not meant as a meal. Rather, it is something tasty to stave off hunger while drinking great beer with fun people in a fun environment. They have live music most Friday and Saturdays. It hasn't all been my taste, but it doesn't chase me away. I just moved to the area a couple weeks ago, and feel like I've been coming here for years. The staff is friendly, and they make an effort to make you feel at home. I like this place so much I told my realtor I needed to be within a few miles so I didn't have to drive far to come back. It's like home...but with more beer, and 8 TVs.

Worst chicken tenders and fries that I have ever had in my life. They charged me $9.99 for disgusting tasting fries that were too over cooked and three medium-sized chicken tenders that looked and tasted like the frozen Tyson tenders. Ridiculous! The restaurant I work at (which I will leave unnamed) sells an order of chicken tenders and fries of much better quality and a larger portion for less than what The Brass Tap charged me. I ate one bite and did not eat any more. I looked at pictures from their Pembroke Pines location and the tenders looked completely different than what I received tonight (they actually looked good and edible). This location also does not have the same menu as the Pembroke Pines location (which has a larger selection), which I find strange for a franchise restaurant. I have never dined at the Pembroke Pines location, but viewing their menu online is what made me decide to try this place. I was very disappointed that this location only offered less than half of the items offered at Pines. Our server was nice, although, he did not ID my 21 year old boyfriend. Which is fine, but he should be more careful if he does not want to lose the liquor license for the bar (keep in mind my boyfriend order two shots and the waiter placed one in front of me, without IDing me, and even asked me if I wanted to order alcohol. I am only 18 and I do not like to drink, but I would have gotten away with ordering alcohol without being IDed). He also told me and my boyfriend how he takes shots and gets "f****d up" at work. I assume he does not pay for those shots, although I cannot say for sure, but regardless, bartenders should NEVER drink behind the bar under any circumstances. It is apparent that they management and liability at this bar is lacking and I do not see this location staying in business (unless they make some serious culinary, staff, and management changes). It is clear that they do not sell a lot of food here because they have the chef run the food (who was dressed in normal clothes, rather than chef attire). Having the chef walk out food can be pretty unsanitary. Our bill ending up being $52 and I do not believe it was worth any cent. I would have had a better meal at McDonald's. Beers are also overpriced here. I will surely not be back in the future. I might try the Pines location, but since my experience at this location I am not sure that it will be worth the risk.

Amazing beer selection the people that work here and the owner Brian are so friendly and welcoming. Brian is always here. Great pub style food. Sundays are local pints 5 bucks a pour!! Great place to just chill. We so enjoy coming here one of our favorite local craft beer joints!

Excellent beer selection and a nice feel inside. Pretty good happy hour. Much needed place in northwest Broward. Menu seems decent, but some healthier choices are needed, carrots instead of soft pretzels as an option for the hummus for would be a good start.

My mom and I play trivia fairly frequently. Don't judge... we'll most likely kick your ass when it comes to useless knowledge. When our usual spot stopped hosting trivia rather abruptly, we decided to follow Erika (the trivia host) to one of her locations, the Brass Tap. When we walked in, the place looked almost deserted. We sat at the bar and perused the menu. My mom was dismayed to learn they didn't have champagne here... I wasn't surprised, given that it's a (wait for it) beer joint. She was further upset when they didn't have soda or iced tea. They offered her Snapple, which she doesn't like. Then the bartender said they have a German soda in a bottle, so she ordered that. She wasn't a fan. I, however, was happy with the beverage options, since they have a pretty large variety of beers. Yes, it's a smaller selection than World of Beer, but since this place was much quieter than WOB, I found it easier to try different beers before committing to one. I first had a grapefruit-flavored beer, then switched to a blueberry one. Neither was overwhelmingly sweet, just had a light flavor, which was what I wanted. By the time trivia started, the place was a bit busier, with 7 or 8 different teams playing. I think every person in there was there for trivia though. So in between questions, I considered what to order. The menu is rather limited, so we ordered the pretzel bites with the beer cheese dip to start (very good, just could have used a few more pretzel pieces), then ordered paninis. My mom opted for the ham and cheese, while I chose the grilled cheese, which has brie on sourdough. But when I saw that another panini had white cheddar, I asked for that in lieu of the brie. Don't get me wrong, I love brie, but cheddar has my heart when it comes to a grilled cheese. I don't regret it, since this was a darn good sandwich. It comes served with rosemary kettle chips, which were just okay, but I only ate about a quarter of them. Now, could I come here every week for trivia? No, because their menu is just too small to come here that frequently. But I definitely enjoyed trivia here (we won 2nd place that night), and we'll be back. Kinda have to come back, since our $10 gift certificate for 2nd place couldn't be used that night.

New place in town! Was having dinner at Moon Thai and heard live music when we exited. (duh, 10:00pm) ~ Went over to see what the Brass Tap was all about and it was packed. The outside sitting area is a nice touch and because it was 68 outside, we could listen to the band in a comfortable environment. Like anything in Florida, time will tell how it will thrive. Lets see what other Yelps! have to say. Service was okay! Cheers!

I won't be going back to this place. It was small & empty. The food was weak and reminded me of cafeteria food in the dorms. The server even warned us about the poor quality and small portions. The beer is also considerably more expensive than World of Beer. I can't imagine it will last. Don't waste your time and go somewhere else.

Ok, my review is a bit different in that I got invited via facebook to a pre grand opening event where we got a beer each for two people. It was their first or perhaps 2nd night like this. We had invite times for 7 pm but when I picked it up she said I could come earlier if we needed to. I get this as they are trying to crowd control and expected a lot of people. We got there earlier and the head guy gave us a really hard time...finally I persuaded him to let us in saying we have kids with us and we wont't be here long, and you really want us in now (vs waiting an hour which he originally told us to do) so we can leave earlier. Anyway..... I love beer. I love beer places. I hope I love this, but something just feels odd about it. Just out of place. The other reviewer is right...it's in a very quiet shopping center anchored by a movie theater. This place is in one of the units leading up to the movie theater, and actually spills onto the walkway. They have put up a fence to separate the restaurant and the walkway. It's a very small place inside. It was very busy that night and I went to use the bathroom and there were so many people to get to the other side it would be next to impossible and perhaps even claustrophobic...I said screw it....I could wait and knew we were almost out of there. We had our few beers, and one beer that I get was a basil IPA..didn't know that at first but when I asked what it was exactly, waitress told me...i thought it was awesome. We ordered a pretzel and cheese dip..around $9. Ehhh. But the call here isn't the food, it's the beer which they have ton of. All in all, I love the idea of a place like this in North Coral Springs...we really don't have much. Not a huge fan of Lefty's, world of beer is far relatively speaking, so this fits the bill. Will the community accept and frequent it? Will it be a good fit with Moon Thai next door and the nail salon (you can actually see them while drinking your beer....a bit odd). Time will tell.....I'll be going back to try some more beers.

More like 3.5 stars. They always have a great selection of beers on tap, special releases that you won't find anywhere but here or the brewery itself. I was psyched to have a cigar city cafe con Leche this last time I was there. The food is eh, at least the few things I have tried. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about beer.

I have grown to really dig this location. Pretty decent tap list majority of the time, staff is friendly, and they have some fun event nights. The food is ok, nothing special, typical pub grub. My reason for not giving full stars is due to them never having growlers, yet advertising half price growlers. I also realize that to go bottles are always inflated, but sometimes their to go bottle prices are just too high for me. Still a great low key spot for some delicious beer.

Awful experience!! Will not return! I had a living social deal for this location, so I thought I would give it a try. I will not make that mistake again. I expected pub food and was not surprised to see that was what the menu offered. I was surprised, however, to find how truly awful the quality of the food was. Yes the pretzel bites with the beer cheese were good, but that was all I can find favor with. Beware any fried items!! They tasted like they had been cooked earlier in the day and re-fried before delivery. Th service was horribly slow and the server even apologized and thanked me for my patience. When I complained about the food, I was told that most people did not come here for the food. REALLY? Not the type of response I expected to hear. Just sharing. By the way, they couldn't scan my living social deal, so I ended up paying for this experience and getting a credit from Living Social. If the deal had worked, it would not have cost anything additional and I still would have been disappointed.

We had been to the Pembroke Pines location before and wanted to try the newly opened Coral Springs branch. I was extremely impressed by the amount of outdoor seating options available compared to the Pines location. There is an entire patio to choose from! I always prefer outdoor seating so this was a definite plus. Our server/ bartender was John. He was extremely helpful and personable. This was a nice change to other craft beer bars where they just take your order quickly and leave. John was very attentive and answered any questions we had about the menu. This made the experience seem more like a friendly pub rather than a posh South Florida bar which is exactly what I look for in a place to grab a drink. The food was great too. Their menu is a little limited at the moment but we were informed that they will be expanding the menu very soon. Overall I would recommend Brass Tap of Coral Springs! The atmosphere is pleasant, the service was helpful and efficient, and the beer was superb! I will definitely be coming back here on a regular basis.

They have a great beer selection, but the service was horrible. Our server/bartender had absolutely no personality and was actually pretty rude. The food was alright, nothing stood out in my mind though. Pretty empty place, but went on a Tuesday night. There would be no way I would go on a Friday night since its right next to movie theater and fro-yo which is filled with a bunch of teenage hormones raging around.

The Brass Tap is my second home. Bryan and Ashley, the owners, are always very welcoming and ready to help you with your order. It is so nice that they are almost always around and out in the front with customers. The bartenders and servers are also incredible. They have more knowledge about beers than I could have ever expected, even about beers that Brass Tap doesn't have. While some of the food is not my favorite, I truly love the Mexican Flatbread and Mexican Quesadilla. The sauce, chicken and tomatoes work great together. The most amazing thing about Brass Tap is the beer selection. There are more different kinds of beers in that place then I could drink in a year, and they are constantly adding more. While I am not a big beer drinker, I am beginning to truly appreciate the taste of a good craft beer, not a silly Heineken or Miller Light. Finally, the atmosphere at The Brass Tap is the cherry on top. There are TVs all around and live music on the weekends. What more could you ask for? So come on down to The Brass Tap this weekend for a wonderful time with my second family. I promise that they will always treat you right!

Finally some excitement in Coral Springs with the opening of this new craft beer bar! The beertenders were extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about craft beer. So wether you're a craft beer veteran or just getting started, the staff here can help you. The vibe was very welcoming making us feel as if we could sit there for hours. On the very spacious front patio there was live music and a couple of awesome ambient enhancing fire pits. The inside is a bit small, but cozy and intimate. The Tap also offers high quality grub that will only enhance your beer drinking experience. For a light snack to share between 2 people I highly recommend the pretzels and Sam Adams beer cheese. The pretzel dough pizzas are amazing making them hard to share so make sure to get your own!

I work next door , seems. Bartenders really don't care.. They do care about hooking up! When I go to "beer" places I like real input! They seem like just want to pour beer as you feel like you are bothering them! To bad great concept, great beers and opportunity!

I had high hopes for this place. The beer selection is great however the table service outside has been terrible the two times I've been there. I'm hoping bc they just opened they are still getting their act together... haven't been back since. I may give them another shot... Either third time is the charm or strike their out!

My wife & I went on Thursday evening. Even though my wife is not a beer drinker, we got two flights and the Pretzel Bites w/cheese dip. I chose 2 'Fru-fru' beers for her and a stout and an IPA for me, then asked our beertender Phil to surprise us with our other 2 beers. The pretzel bites were awesome, and the beers were perfect. I really thought my wife would only drink half of her beers, but she surprised me and finished all but one! I really enjoyed this place, and will be returning soon!!

Limited at best food selection but what I did have was solid. But you aren't coming here for food. Had decent to good service. When I had the bartender's attention they were helpful and friendly. Lots of beers on tap and a solid selection. For this area it's the best selection of craft beer I've found so far.

For those of you reviewing this for the food or take out beer that is not what Brass Tap's focus is. Rare, high rated, and local beers are on tap and the focus. No Miller light here. The selection is great. Sometimes the staff is a little slower when they are busy but that is because unlike world of beers or other tap houses they offer food too so you don't have to eat before or leave. It's a convenience not a restaurant. This place has a great beer selection and the 4 beer 5oz flight deal is great. The selection changes all the time and they carry Cigar City on tap. Last night I had a Delirium tremens, weihenstephaner vitus( not hefe like some other places), funky Buddha more Moro, and tried a Scottish whiskey beer I don't remember for a flight. I then had a cigar city stout to finish and thought of the hard root beer float but had to leave to meet an emergency sink repair company. The point is this place is great. They carry rare, small batch brewery(founders, green flash), and local brews (cigar city, due south, MIA, funky Buddha). If you like beer go here

Went on over for lunch. I will admit the place is new and did not have it together in the kitchen. No pizza dough but food was ok in the end. LOTS of beer and that's a good thing but my friend wanted and coke and while there were signs on the menu suggesting they had some they did not at all. I will try again and see if the kitchen got it back together yet. Hope it works out as it seems like a cool place to hang before off after a movie. Good Luck

New chain beer bar/music venue in Coral Springs. Seems okay. Not sure it will last since it is a bar in a family neighborhood and next to a frozen yogurt place and movie theatre. Wasn't there to drink. We had dinner at Moon thai and walked over to listen to the band playing outside who were pretty good. We were enjoying the music with our 1.5 yr old who loves bands, guitars and drums. The band got a kick out of him while we were standing there listening and the drummer gave our son a pair of drumsticks to play with. He has some at home and knew what to do with them and within minutes he was playing next to the band, "drumming" on one of the outdoor plastic woven chairs. Everyone thought it was cute and he was drawing a small crowd at the movie theatre and the courtyard. The band kept "playing" with him... Guitarist was coming over to "solo" with him. Band manager was taking pics, etc. Very cute. Then all of a sudden, some guy that was waiter or manager I suppose walks over with a disapproving look on his face and without saying anything slides the chair away from my son who in return was of course upset and started to cry. Even if he said something nice about it that would have been fine but just threw us a dirty look like we were the lowest scum of the earth. Not sure really a 1.5 yr old can really hurt a plastic chair and it was just kind of mean to do to a child who was enjoying himself. Certainly not a way to impress all of the parents standing around, and there were a lot watching since it is next to a movie theatre. Way to go Brass Tap for being a straight up jerk to a toddler in front of all your potential new patrons. You looked really tough! 1 star for unfriendly jerk waiter. The band however was great and very cool guys. Hats off to them for making a toddlers night by letting him play with the band!!

Go here when I want to drink because I am not a big beer drinker so going to our other hangout prevents me from enjoying sometimes. Hubby doesn't mind too much but he prefers his other place because of the better perks of being in their beer club and pricing. At least this place has food which is sometimes needed (I love real pretzels!) and the staff learn your name quick. Always enjoy seeing Johnny, he always greets with a smile and some great suggestions on what's new to try!

This place is an awesome hang out spot. My co workers and I often come here after a long shift. Wednesdays are in the biz night!! Service industry workers get a discount which is cool. The beer selection is always amazing and I can always try something new. The staff is very friendly and informative. The food is just okay. I had the pretzel bites which was kind of hard And my boyfriend had the chicken sliders and they tasted stale. I wouldn't come here hungry, but then again they are not a restaurant. 10/10 would come again. Best bar in Coral Springs.

Made my second visit here and decided i should now review. I like this place for three reasons. I like beer. I like sports. I like to people watch. Brass Tap affords me these things. Oh, and its proximity to my home is a good thing as well, because if i happen to over indulge i can walk ( stumble) home, without jeapordizing my future or others by driving. I rarely give 5 stars because in my opinion a place needs to knock it out of the park, ( sports reference) to receive that many from me. It is a beer bar. With slightly better bar food than alot of other bars. Calling it "upscale" is a misnomer. That usually equates to more expensive, which i find this place is. The servers and bartenders are mildly enthusiastic and fairly well informed about the product and concept. The tap beers could be colder imho, two months ago they were fine, but its sofla summer now, so may be time to adjust cooler temps. The beer cheese dip and pretzels are great with beer. The other menu items are decent, but pricey for the quantity i think. The live music is a plus, i like to support local musicians and always throw them a few bucks. Our server, i cannot remember her name, a shorter look alike to Taylor Swift was congenial, cute as a button and helpful. We wanted some recs and she brought us samples to try and helped us to decide. All in all, i like the Brass Tap and see myself coming here often.

Ok. this is going to be brutally honest. i missed the fb grand opening. glad i did. i don't like large crowds or waiting. so i met my gf for a drink and some wings. we get there and wait for like 15 mins, until 3 different bimbo waitresses come over finally and ask us what we wanted. as women, we noticed they didn't wait on us as fast as the men, which outnumbered us in a beer joint. i wanted to check it out before i invited some GF's for my bday party. the service sucks. we ordered pino grigio, they were out! we ordered wings, they do not serve wings! they have 2 prices on the menu for wine like 5.5/7. i had no clue why. we ordered our wine because i wanted Foster's beer. they do NOT serve it. it seems all they push is American beers from the tap, and foreign beer in cans for more money. i was pissed. so i ordered the glass of wine. the wine was ok. when the bill came bimbo #2 charged me $7. when i said why, she said "i assumed u wanted the 7 oz. not 5". i said well, u know what happens when u assume? i ordered the flat bread pulled pork, and so did my GF. hers came mine did not! 3 waitresses cant get one simple order right? i waited 15 mins until they came by and asked my bff how was your food? i said where is mine? she says "oh u want one too?" duh. dumb bitch. it finally comes another 15 mins. later. it was more like Matzo with bbq sauce and shreds of pork on it. total shit! $5.50. the worst is yet to come. Mind you, i am a former nightclub promoter for clubs on SOBE, NYC, LA. its obvious this beer chain spends very little on food so they can satisfy their licensing requirements to serve beer and wine. shame on you. no wings? the menu sucks!! no Foster's beer? No Pino Grigio on the 6th night in business? totally f'ed up! so here's the final straw: they kept the bands platform outside, next to where we sat, near the movie exit. since they did put up their entire fence yet, the ppl walked past us with their walkers, canes, wheelchairs, u name it! a lady tripped right in front of us! went flying across the stage. i thought it was curtains for her! no one helped her but me. she sat there for a few mins and was ignored. i had to call the bimbo to come over and move the table and chairs to block the old folks from exiting the movies and into the path of us and the outside seating area. So here is the straw that broke the camel's back and why i will never go back to this dive: there was a HOMELESS MAN TAKING A SHOWER IN THE MEN'S ROOM SINK!! NO SHIT! he came out of the bathroom shirtless with a long dirty beard. then proceeded to give himself a spit shower. right in front of us, he spit on his arms an rubbed his chest and arms in front of everyone, then wiped his wet dirty hair and washed his armpits with the water from his hair, while all the patrons including us almost vomited in our mouths! instead of the staff calling the police, they all stood there watching!! i finally asked bimbo #1 to please call the police,. as we were very uncomfortable leaving and going to our cars alone. afraid of this crazy guy. they never f'ing called! this place is not going to last. it is NO fun, boring, too small, no good selections, shitty food offerings, dumb waitresses, and a manager with his head up his ass. he never once stopped by to say hello or tell me why he didn't call the cops. not worth stopping in. no atmosphere whatsoever. maybe for men to go and watch the game and driink shitty beer. this is a big bar chain in florida. the GM needs to know! Good Ole Boys club. they are not friendly to single women IMO. im canceling my birthday get together. all this is TRUE! you cant make this shit up! Save your money. not worth it at all.

Do NOT GO HERE. I repeat, do not go here... Ah yes.. The Brass Tap in Coral Springs.. what a place.. I had such high hopes for a great craft beer bar yet it failed so miserably. Just an FYI, I went here 4 times (giving them benefit of the doubt each time) Lets begin: Customer service - This is where this bar fails big time. Their bartenders know nothing about the craft beers they are serving. Their servers are rude and disrespectful. Their manager/owner has absolutely no respect/doesnt care for his customers. -Examples: The bartenders continually serve their beers in the wrong glassware.. I know this sounds dumb to most but when youre paying 10 dollars a beer I expect my imperial stout to be in a snifter, not a Chimay Goblet.. -I asked a server what a certain tap was, she walked away and never came back.. when I asked again she told me I was dumb for asking. -I asked a bartender what type of beer a certain draft was.. he told me a stout, instead it was a winter ale. Environment: I went here one Saturday night, the garage doors (their wall basically) were wide open.. now let me remind you that South Florida is 90 degrees even in the winter.. so yeah, everyone inside was sweating because the owner is too cheap to turn on the A/C. Menu: a craft beer bar with 70 taps would update their draft menu daily you would think, right? WRONG. This bar updates their menu (printed, online, iphone app and their chalk board) only once a week. Every time I go I ask for a beer on the menu, only to be told it isnt on tap anymore... this goes on for about 5+ beers till finally I give up and ask the server to just bring me a beer in that style. I'm sorry but there is zero reason why you can update a draft menu daily, even if its the chalk board or turn a TV into a scrolling menu! Last but not least.. I brought my concerns to the management/owners via email.. In reply I got "your statements about me couldn't be any further from the truth" and "I find some parts of your email to be off base", "not going to a bar over it is extreme in my opinion" FROM THE OWNER. Excuse me but arent you in the service industry? I give you my hard earned money (a lot of it for craft beers) and in return I get a good experience right? Apparently I'm wrong. Any owner who is willing to tell his customers to basically F' off is setting himself up for failure in the customer service industry.. Whatever happened to the customer is always right? Also take a look at the reply the owner sent someone on here.. pretty much sums up his email back to me, rude. Like I said, I gave this place multiple shots at succeeding but every visit got worse with time. I'll be avoiding this establishment and I hope you do too.

Great craft beer selection. Make sure you ask for specific brews. The wait staff did not know which beers were craft or major brewers. Draught and beware! The homemade potato chips are a good idea, but the oil tasted burned, nasty. Was a very unprofessional sight to see the young man behind the bar enjoying one of his favorite bottles while, apparently, working. Not cool! Know your beer when you enter here. The beers get a 5*, but the staff are below average,2*

Bartender David is awesome and really knows all about beers. He is very polite and helps you find exactly what you are looking for. You just need to tell him the flavor you like (spice or fruit) and he brings out the best from his collection. Food is fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this place. I will be back here for sure!!

WOB's little brother. The people who live in Northwest Coral Springs must be applauding the opening of this joint. There is no place like this in the area and it's badly needed. Nice selection of beers on tap and in the bottle. No where near the selection at WOB but who cares. They have the same sign up process as WOB. 15 bucks gets you a card, a shirt, and the ability to get points for different beers you order. Same as WOB except you don't get two free beers. Also you get 200 dollars at 300 beers instead of 500 beers at WOB. They actually serve small bites of food. We had the pretzels and Samuel Adams cheese dip. They were pretty tasty and very addictive. Service is where I thought this place excelled. Our bartender was John and he was a super solid dude. He was eager to get beers and had no issues with me trying samples of something on draft. The only issues I had was looking at the nail place as one Yelper mentioned. Also anyone who lives out here knows that on the weekends this plaza is a local hangout for the kids. It will be interesting to see this place is on a weekend night. I'm happy this place opened up and I can see myself becoming a regular because it's so much closer to my house than WOB. I recommend you stop by have some drinks and enjoy this beer oasis in NW Coral Springs. Remember to tell them that Dan sent you and Stay Thirsty.

A year ago I would have said not to bother....but they really have made an effort to listen to customer complaints about service and warm beer. Good experience the last couple of times, and a very polite staff at the bar. I'll look forward to their continuing progress.

On this my second visit, the beers on tap still don't seem to be properly chilled. The Brass Tap (Coral Springs version) doesn't seem to be at the same level as the one at Pembroke Gardens. I'm not sure what they do to keep the beer at a certain temperature, but it goes down luke-cold. It seems like the behind-the-bar service is still trying to find its groove as well. I had ordered a beer, along with my guest, and he lost track of me while continuing a conversation with the patrons at the other end of the bar. As he walked back toward us, he then remembered. On my first visit, there were three gents behind the bar, each of whom we're attending to me, which got confusing. I don't know ... I'm sure things will get better. The baked pretzels are really good. He brought out some yellow mustard for us, which was appreciated. I know this place specializes in beer, and I get that. You don't come here, primarily, to watch sports on TV. So asking the gentleman to flip on second-round coverage the Masters an hour into its TV coverage suggests to me that this isn't a place to watch live sports events. You're here to drink a wide variety of tap and bottled beers, and have good conversation with those around you, and this place facilitates that. It could very well be that my visits are not typical based on the solid Yelp reviews. As such, I would encourage you to give this place a try. I'm sure I'll return at some point to prove myself wrong and bump up the two-star rating.

I have been coming here since day one. This place is great! Every time I come in, I am warmly greeted and treated as though I'm part of the family. The beer selection here is amazing. With over 70 different beers on draft and hundreds more in the bottle, there is always something good from which to choose. If you're into craft beer, this is the place to come. The newly expanded food menu has some excellent selections. Occasionally I bring my service dogs in here and we sit on the couches outside. The bartenders always come out to greet the dogs and give them a bowl of water. I have met some wonderful people here and made some great new friends. A few of us have climbed to the top of the leader board in the Brew Crew club, and we have become quite the tight-knit group. I look forward to coming here as I always have a pleasant experience. I will definitely be checking in here more often.
(5)Jay K.
I've had some time to really get to know this place. The menu is designed as upscale bar food. I've had most of it. It's not meant as a meal. Rather, it is something tasty to stave off hunger while drinking great beer with fun people in a fun environment. They have live music most Friday and Saturdays. It hasn't all been my taste, but it doesn't chase me away. I just moved to the area a couple weeks ago, and feel like I've been coming here for years. The staff is friendly, and they make an effort to make you feel at home. I like this place so much I told my realtor I needed to be within a few miles so I didn't have to drive far to come back. It's like home...but with more beer, and 8 TVs.

I had a full beard by the time my check arrived after paying I grew full chest hair and left like a big foot

Worst chicken tenders and fries that I have ever had in my life. They charged me $9.99 for disgusting tasting fries that were too over cooked and three medium-sized chicken tenders that looked and tasted like the frozen Tyson tenders. Ridiculous! The restaurant I work at (which I will leave unnamed) sells an order of chicken tenders and fries of much better quality and a larger portion for less than what The Brass Tap charged me. I ate one bite and did not eat any more. I looked at pictures from their Pembroke Pines location and the tenders looked completely different than what I received tonight (they actually looked good and edible). This location also does not have the same menu as the Pembroke Pines location (which has a larger selection), which I find strange for a franchise restaurant. I have never dined at the Pembroke Pines location, but viewing their menu online is what made me decide to try this place. I was very disappointed that this location only offered less than half of the items offered at Pines. Our server was nice, although, he did not ID my 21 year old boyfriend. Which is fine, but he should be more careful if he does not want to lose the liquor license for the bar (keep in mind my boyfriend order two shots and the waiter placed one in front of me, without IDing me, and even asked me if I wanted to order alcohol. I am only 18 and I do not like to drink, but I would have gotten away with ordering alcohol without being IDed). He also told me and my boyfriend how he takes shots and gets "f****d up" at work. I assume he does not pay for those shots, although I cannot say for sure, but regardless, bartenders should NEVER drink behind the bar under any circumstances. It is apparent that they management and liability at this bar is lacking and I do not see this location staying in business (unless they make some serious culinary, staff, and management changes). It is clear that they do not sell a lot of food here because they have the chef run the food (who was dressed in normal clothes, rather than chef attire). Having the chef walk out food can be pretty unsanitary. Our bill ending up being $52 and I do not believe it was worth any cent. I would have had a better meal at McDonald's. Beers are also overpriced here. I will surely not be back in the future. I might try the Pines location, but since my experience at this location I am not sure that it will be worth the risk.
(1)Mario C.
Amazing beer selection the people that work here and the owner Brian are so friendly and welcoming. Brian is always here. Great pub style food. Sundays are local pints 5 bucks a pour!! Great place to just chill. We so enjoy coming here one of our favorite local craft beer joints!
(5)Dennis R.
Excellent beer selection and a nice feel inside. Pretty good happy hour. Much needed place in northwest Broward. Menu seems decent, but some healthier choices are needed, carrots instead of soft pretzels as an option for the hummus for would be a good start.
(4)Emily M.
Great selection of beer and great appetizer type foods. Wouldn't go here if your starving but for a pre-dinner or a fun night to drink some beer or wine, this place is great. I personally like it better than WOB.
(4)Allen D.
So happy a beer place opened so close to my house. Great beers always on tap and opening night was amazing. I will be back often.

My mom and I play trivia fairly frequently. Don't judge... we'll most likely kick your ass when it comes to useless knowledge. When our usual spot stopped hosting trivia rather abruptly, we decided to follow Erika (the trivia host) to one of her locations, the Brass Tap. When we walked in, the place looked almost deserted. We sat at the bar and perused the menu. My mom was dismayed to learn they didn't have champagne here... I wasn't surprised, given that it's a (wait for it) beer joint. She was further upset when they didn't have soda or iced tea. They offered her Snapple, which she doesn't like. Then the bartender said they have a German soda in a bottle, so she ordered that. She wasn't a fan. I, however, was happy with the beverage options, since they have a pretty large variety of beers. Yes, it's a smaller selection than World of Beer, but since this place was much quieter than WOB, I found it easier to try different beers before committing to one. I first had a grapefruit-flavored beer, then switched to a blueberry one. Neither was overwhelmingly sweet, just had a light flavor, which was what I wanted. By the time trivia started, the place was a bit busier, with 7 or 8 different teams playing. I think every person in there was there for trivia though. So in between questions, I considered what to order. The menu is rather limited, so we ordered the pretzel bites with the beer cheese dip to start (very good, just could have used a few more pretzel pieces), then ordered paninis. My mom opted for the ham and cheese, while I chose the grilled cheese, which has brie on sourdough. But when I saw that another panini had white cheddar, I asked for that in lieu of the brie. Don't get me wrong, I love brie, but cheddar has my heart when it comes to a grilled cheese. I don't regret it, since this was a darn good sandwich. It comes served with rosemary kettle chips, which were just okay, but I only ate about a quarter of them. Now, could I come here every week for trivia? No, because their menu is just too small to come here that frequently. But I definitely enjoyed trivia here (we won 2nd place that night), and we'll be back. Kinda have to come back, since our $10 gift certificate for 2nd place couldn't be used that night.

New place in town! Was having dinner at Moon Thai and heard live music when we exited. (duh, 10:00pm) ~ Went over to see what the Brass Tap was all about and it was packed. The outside sitting area is a nice touch and because it was 68 outside, we could listen to the band in a comfortable environment. Like anything in Florida, time will tell how it will thrive. Lets see what other Yelps! have to say. Service was okay! Cheers!
(3)Jason S.
I won't be going back to this place. It was small & empty. The food was weak and reminded me of cafeteria food in the dorms. The server even warned us about the poor quality and small portions. The beer is also considerably more expensive than World of Beer. I can't imagine it will last. Don't waste your time and go somewhere else.
(1)Keith B.
Ok, my review is a bit different in that I got invited via facebook to a pre grand opening event where we got a beer each for two people. It was their first or perhaps 2nd night like this. We had invite times for 7 pm but when I picked it up she said I could come earlier if we needed to. I get this as they are trying to crowd control and expected a lot of people. We got there earlier and the head guy gave us a really hard time...finally I persuaded him to let us in saying we have kids with us and we wont't be here long, and you really want us in now (vs waiting an hour which he originally told us to do) so we can leave earlier. Anyway..... I love beer. I love beer places. I hope I love this, but something just feels odd about it. Just out of place. The other reviewer is right...it's in a very quiet shopping center anchored by a movie theater. This place is in one of the units leading up to the movie theater, and actually spills onto the walkway. They have put up a fence to separate the restaurant and the walkway. It's a very small place inside. It was very busy that night and I went to use the bathroom and there were so many people to get to the other side it would be next to impossible and perhaps even claustrophobic...I said screw it....I could wait and knew we were almost out of there. We had our few beers, and one beer that I get was a basil IPA..didn't know that at first but when I asked what it was exactly, waitress told me...i thought it was awesome. We ordered a pretzel and cheese dip..around $9. Ehhh. But the call here isn't the food, it's the beer which they have ton of. All in all, I love the idea of a place like this in North Coral Springs...we really don't have much. Not a huge fan of Lefty's, world of beer is far relatively speaking, so this fits the bill. Will the community accept and frequent it? Will it be a good fit with Moon Thai next door and the nail salon (you can actually see them while drinking your beer....a bit odd). Time will tell.....I'll be going back to try some more beers.
(3)Stephanie S.
More like 3.5 stars. They always have a great selection of beers on tap, special releases that you won't find anywhere but here or the brewery itself. I was psyched to have a cigar city cafe con Leche this last time I was there. The food is eh, at least the few things I have tried. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about beer.
(4)Christina G.
I have grown to really dig this location. Pretty decent tap list majority of the time, staff is friendly, and they have some fun event nights. The food is ok, nothing special, typical pub grub. My reason for not giving full stars is due to them never having growlers, yet advertising half price growlers. I also realize that to go bottles are always inflated, but sometimes their to go bottle prices are just too high for me. Still a great low key spot for some delicious beer.
(4)Marguerite T.
Awful experience!! Will not return! I had a living social deal for this location, so I thought I would give it a try. I will not make that mistake again. I expected pub food and was not surprised to see that was what the menu offered. I was surprised, however, to find how truly awful the quality of the food was. Yes the pretzel bites with the beer cheese were good, but that was all I can find favor with. Beware any fried items!! They tasted like they had been cooked earlier in the day and re-fried before delivery. Th service was horribly slow and the server even apologized and thanked me for my patience. When I complained about the food, I was told that most people did not come here for the food. REALLY? Not the type of response I expected to hear. Just sharing. By the way, they couldn't scan my living social deal, so I ended up paying for this experience and getting a credit from Living Social. If the deal had worked, it would not have cost anything additional and I still would have been disappointed.

We had been to the Pembroke Pines location before and wanted to try the newly opened Coral Springs branch. I was extremely impressed by the amount of outdoor seating options available compared to the Pines location. There is an entire patio to choose from! I always prefer outdoor seating so this was a definite plus. Our server/ bartender was John. He was extremely helpful and personable. This was a nice change to other craft beer bars where they just take your order quickly and leave. John was very attentive and answered any questions we had about the menu. This made the experience seem more like a friendly pub rather than a posh South Florida bar which is exactly what I look for in a place to grab a drink. The food was great too. Their menu is a little limited at the moment but we were informed that they will be expanding the menu very soon. Overall I would recommend Brass Tap of Coral Springs! The atmosphere is pleasant, the service was helpful and efficient, and the beer was superb! I will definitely be coming back here on a regular basis.
(5)Steven H.
2 stars for a Great Beer selection, horrible service. New menu sounds good but doesn't deliver. Got sick from eating the fish & chips...maybe I shouldn't have ordered that from a bar?
(2)Veronica R.
They have a great beer selection, but the service was horrible. Our server/bartender had absolutely no personality and was actually pretty rude. The food was alright, nothing stood out in my mind though. Pretty empty place, but went on a Tuesday night. There would be no way I would go on a Friday night since its right next to movie theater and fro-yo which is filled with a bunch of teenage hormones raging around.
(3)Gabbi D.
Very bad draught beers. I asked for the Nacho's with Samuel Adams cheese: Nachos with tostitos salsa and tostitos cheese. Better to buy a 12 pack and a bag of tostitos.
(1)Erika R.
Huge fan of this place. Staff was awesome when it came to recommendations. Large selection at least 70 taps. Chill vibe and live music on a Friday made it perfect. it would make the perfect cozy low key date spot.
(5)Ed M.
Stopped by on the way to the movie, beer was good but food was very disappointing. Had wings they were tasty but were not crisp and oily. Also had fish and chips and same thing, the food was not fried very good

The Brass Tap is my second home. Bryan and Ashley, the owners, are always very welcoming and ready to help you with your order. It is so nice that they are almost always around and out in the front with customers. The bartenders and servers are also incredible. They have more knowledge about beers than I could have ever expected, even about beers that Brass Tap doesn't have. While some of the food is not my favorite, I truly love the Mexican Flatbread and Mexican Quesadilla. The sauce, chicken and tomatoes work great together. The most amazing thing about Brass Tap is the beer selection. There are more different kinds of beers in that place then I could drink in a year, and they are constantly adding more. While I am not a big beer drinker, I am beginning to truly appreciate the taste of a good craft beer, not a silly Heineken or Miller Light. Finally, the atmosphere at The Brass Tap is the cherry on top. There are TVs all around and live music on the weekends. What more could you ask for? So come on down to The Brass Tap this weekend for a wonderful time with my second family. I promise that they will always treat you right!
(5)Yahaira H.
Great selection of beers at good prices. A good competition to World of Beers and right next to the movies.

Ordered a flatbread sandwich which was just crackers and what appeared to be canned chicken. A complete insult. Not going back.
(1)Staci T.
Finally some excitement in Coral Springs with the opening of this new craft beer bar! The beertenders were extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about craft beer. So wether you're a craft beer veteran or just getting started, the staff here can help you. The vibe was very welcoming making us feel as if we could sit there for hours. On the very spacious front patio there was live music and a couple of awesome ambient enhancing fire pits. The inside is a bit small, but cozy and intimate. The Tap also offers high quality grub that will only enhance your beer drinking experience. For a light snack to share between 2 people I highly recommend the pretzels and Sam Adams beer cheese. The pretzel dough pizzas are amazing making them hard to share so make sure to get your own!
(5)D C.
I work next door , seems. Bartenders really don't care.. They do care about hooking up! When I go to "beer" places I like real input! They seem like just want to pour beer as you feel like you are bothering them! To bad great concept, great beers and opportunity!
(3)Michele B.
I had high hopes for this place. The beer selection is great however the table service outside has been terrible the two times I've been there. I'm hoping bc they just opened they are still getting their act together... haven't been back since. I may give them another shot... Either third time is the charm or strike their out!
(2)Doug F.
My wife & I went on Thursday evening. Even though my wife is not a beer drinker, we got two flights and the Pretzel Bites w/cheese dip. I chose 2 'Fru-fru' beers for her and a stout and an IPA for me, then asked our beertender Phil to surprise us with our other 2 beers. The pretzel bites were awesome, and the beers were perfect. I really thought my wife would only drink half of her beers, but she surprised me and finished all but one! I really enjoyed this place, and will be returning soon!!
(5)Lisa K.
Great beer choices! Something new for Coral Springs.
(4)Michael W.
Limited at best food selection but what I did have was solid. But you aren't coming here for food. Had decent to good service. When I had the bartender's attention they were helpful and friendly. Lots of beers on tap and a solid selection. For this area it's the best selection of craft beer I've found so far.
(4)Tony O.
Great atmosphere with good music and great service! Food is great too.....how can you go wrong with prime rib shaving nachos with Sam Adams beer cheese????
(5)Bryce M.
For those of you reviewing this for the food or take out beer that is not what Brass Tap's focus is. Rare, high rated, and local beers are on tap and the focus. No Miller light here. The selection is great. Sometimes the staff is a little slower when they are busy but that is because unlike world of beers or other tap houses they offer food too so you don't have to eat before or leave. It's a convenience not a restaurant. This place has a great beer selection and the 4 beer 5oz flight deal is great. The selection changes all the time and they carry Cigar City on tap. Last night I had a Delirium tremens, weihenstephaner vitus( not hefe like some other places), funky Buddha more Moro, and tried a Scottish whiskey beer I don't remember for a flight. I then had a cigar city stout to finish and thought of the hard root beer float but had to leave to meet an emergency sink repair company. The point is this place is great. They carry rare, small batch brewery(founders, green flash), and local brews (cigar city, due south, MIA, funky Buddha). If you like beer go here
(5)Susan L.
Went on over for lunch. I will admit the place is new and did not have it together in the kitchen. No pizza dough but food was ok in the end. LOTS of beer and that's a good thing but my friend wanted and coke and while there were signs on the menu suggesting they had some they did not at all. I will try again and see if the kitchen got it back together yet. Hope it works out as it seems like a cool place to hang before off after a movie. Good Luck

New chain beer bar/music venue in Coral Springs. Seems okay. Not sure it will last since it is a bar in a family neighborhood and next to a frozen yogurt place and movie theatre. Wasn't there to drink. We had dinner at Moon thai and walked over to listen to the band playing outside who were pretty good. We were enjoying the music with our 1.5 yr old who loves bands, guitars and drums. The band got a kick out of him while we were standing there listening and the drummer gave our son a pair of drumsticks to play with. He has some at home and knew what to do with them and within minutes he was playing next to the band, "drumming" on one of the outdoor plastic woven chairs. Everyone thought it was cute and he was drawing a small crowd at the movie theatre and the courtyard. The band kept "playing" with him... Guitarist was coming over to "solo" with him. Band manager was taking pics, etc. Very cute. Then all of a sudden, some guy that was waiter or manager I suppose walks over with a disapproving look on his face and without saying anything slides the chair away from my son who in return was of course upset and started to cry. Even if he said something nice about it that would have been fine but just threw us a dirty look like we were the lowest scum of the earth. Not sure really a 1.5 yr old can really hurt a plastic chair and it was just kind of mean to do to a child who was enjoying himself. Certainly not a way to impress all of the parents standing around, and there were a lot watching since it is next to a movie theatre. Way to go Brass Tap for being a straight up jerk to a toddler in front of all your potential new patrons. You looked really tough! 1 star for unfriendly jerk waiter. The band however was great and very cool guys. Hats off to them for making a toddlers night by letting him play with the band!!
(1)Diana D.
Go here when I want to drink because I am not a big beer drinker so going to our other hangout prevents me from enjoying sometimes. Hubby doesn't mind too much but he prefers his other place because of the better perks of being in their beer club and pricing. At least this place has food which is sometimes needed (I love real pretzels!) and the staff learn your name quick. Always enjoy seeing Johnny, he always greets with a smile and some great suggestions on what's new to try!
(4)Annmarie D.
This place is an awesome hang out spot. My co workers and I often come here after a long shift. Wednesdays are in the biz night!! Service industry workers get a discount which is cool. The beer selection is always amazing and I can always try something new. The staff is very friendly and informative. The food is just okay. I had the pretzel bites which was kind of hard And my boyfriend had the chicken sliders and they tasted stale. I wouldn't come here hungry, but then again they are not a restaurant. 10/10 would come again. Best bar in Coral Springs.

Made my second visit here and decided i should now review. I like this place for three reasons. I like beer. I like sports. I like to people watch. Brass Tap affords me these things. Oh, and its proximity to my home is a good thing as well, because if i happen to over indulge i can walk ( stumble) home, without jeapordizing my future or others by driving. I rarely give 5 stars because in my opinion a place needs to knock it out of the park, ( sports reference) to receive that many from me. It is a beer bar. With slightly better bar food than alot of other bars. Calling it "upscale" is a misnomer. That usually equates to more expensive, which i find this place is. The servers and bartenders are mildly enthusiastic and fairly well informed about the product and concept. The tap beers could be colder imho, two months ago they were fine, but its sofla summer now, so may be time to adjust cooler temps. The beer cheese dip and pretzels are great with beer. The other menu items are decent, but pricey for the quantity i think. The live music is a plus, i like to support local musicians and always throw them a few bucks. Our server, i cannot remember her name, a shorter look alike to Taylor Swift was congenial, cute as a button and helpful. We wanted some recs and she brought us samples to try and helped us to decide. All in all, i like the Brass Tap and see myself coming here often.

Ok. this is going to be brutally honest. i missed the fb grand opening. glad i did. i don't like large crowds or waiting. so i met my gf for a drink and some wings. we get there and wait for like 15 mins, until 3 different bimbo waitresses come over finally and ask us what we wanted. as women, we noticed they didn't wait on us as fast as the men, which outnumbered us in a beer joint. i wanted to check it out before i invited some GF's for my bday party. the service sucks. we ordered pino grigio, they were out! we ordered wings, they do not serve wings! they have 2 prices on the menu for wine like 5.5/7. i had no clue why. we ordered our wine because i wanted Foster's beer. they do NOT serve it. it seems all they push is American beers from the tap, and foreign beer in cans for more money. i was pissed. so i ordered the glass of wine. the wine was ok. when the bill came bimbo #2 charged me $7. when i said why, she said "i assumed u wanted the 7 oz. not 5". i said well, u know what happens when u assume? i ordered the flat bread pulled pork, and so did my GF. hers came mine did not! 3 waitresses cant get one simple order right? i waited 15 mins until they came by and asked my bff how was your food? i said where is mine? she says "oh u want one too?" duh. dumb bitch. it finally comes another 15 mins. later. it was more like Matzo with bbq sauce and shreds of pork on it. total shit! $5.50. the worst is yet to come. Mind you, i am a former nightclub promoter for clubs on SOBE, NYC, LA. its obvious this beer chain spends very little on food so they can satisfy their licensing requirements to serve beer and wine. shame on you. no wings? the menu sucks!! no Foster's beer? No Pino Grigio on the 6th night in business? totally f'ed up! so here's the final straw: they kept the bands platform outside, next to where we sat, near the movie exit. since they did put up their entire fence yet, the ppl walked past us with their walkers, canes, wheelchairs, u name it! a lady tripped right in front of us! went flying across the stage. i thought it was curtains for her! no one helped her but me. she sat there for a few mins and was ignored. i had to call the bimbo to come over and move the table and chairs to block the old folks from exiting the movies and into the path of us and the outside seating area. So here is the straw that broke the camel's back and why i will never go back to this dive: there was a HOMELESS MAN TAKING A SHOWER IN THE MEN'S ROOM SINK!! NO SHIT! he came out of the bathroom shirtless with a long dirty beard. then proceeded to give himself a spit shower. right in front of us, he spit on his arms an rubbed his chest and arms in front of everyone, then wiped his wet dirty hair and washed his armpits with the water from his hair, while all the patrons including us almost vomited in our mouths! instead of the staff calling the police, they all stood there watching!! i finally asked bimbo #1 to please call the police,. as we were very uncomfortable leaving and going to our cars alone. afraid of this crazy guy. they never f'ing called! this place is not going to last. it is NO fun, boring, too small, no good selections, shitty food offerings, dumb waitresses, and a manager with his head up his ass. he never once stopped by to say hello or tell me why he didn't call the cops. not worth stopping in. no atmosphere whatsoever. maybe for men to go and watch the game and driink shitty beer. this is a big bar chain in florida. the GM needs to know! Good Ole Boys club. they are not friendly to single women IMO. im canceling my birthday get together. all this is TRUE! you cant make this shit up! Save your money. not worth it at all.
