“ Outstanding all the way around food service, and atmosphere, wings were delicious, my fiancé loved their siders ”
“ Great service! Fantastic with kids. Relaxed vibe. Wish they had another GF option or two. ”
“ The food and beers are excellent. The outdoor patio is beautiful, but swarming with wasps. I liked the friendly service. The butchers board is recommended. ”
“ The beers are diverse and excellent. Everyone at the table would give them 5/5. The service was quite good. 4/5. The food was excellent bar food. 4/5. The appetizers the table ordered were the bacon nibs (pork belly and hot honey), poutine, and the butcher board (meat and cheese plate). All were excellent and eaten quickly. The table had a selection of sandwiches- the highlights were the hot roast beef and the Cornell-style chicken. Definitely worth the drive out of the main area of Ithaca to enjoy this place. ”
“ Ithaca Beer Company might be one of my favorite local beers I've had when it's available at a bar I go to. Their Flower Power is iconic and strong. So when I was up here for a mini weekend trip, I made sure we stopped by here. Their flight is $12 where you can get 4 different 4 ounce pours. Pretty good deal and 4 ounces is a lot. Definitely try their seasonals as the "Core Beliefs" you can try anytime. We also got food to take with us. The Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich ($17) is a hit with their chipotle buttermilk marinated chicken with Flower Power pickles and aioli sauce on brioche bun. We also had their Spinach & Mushroom Pizza ($18) which we also enjoyed. A bit oily as you'd expect from a pizza. Consisted of sautéed mushroom blend, kale, spinach, garlic oil base, and mozzarella. It's also worth considering buying a case of beer here if you really enjoy the beer as they're sold at a discount. I picked up a box of 10 Flower Power, which as 16 ounce cans for $18. That's under $2 a can! My local beer store would sell these for $15 a pop (markup is crazy). ”
“ If you are looking for a place to get some delicious pizza and try some great beers, this is it! The portion sizes are enough to share which makes it more fun to try more items on the menu. I'm not a big beer drinker but our waitress did a great job with helping me decide what to try based on what I told her I liked and didn't. The outside seating is so nice too! ”
“ Our large group came on a Saturday late afternoon and waited 45 min for a table. We got a few beers while waiting: I recommend the apricot wheat, tropical ipa and blue raz sour. The Cornell mule was also good. I had the chicken bites, fry flight and Cornell chicken sandwich. The fry flight comes with ketchup, honey mustard and ranch. Not a fan of the ketchup as it tastes more like marinara, and the fry flight is quite overpriced for the amount. The fries have a good crispy exterior with a soft and airy interior. Chicken bites were good, not overly battered and comes with a tasty spicy yum yum sauce. The chicken sandwich was pretty good, and the chicken was cooked well. Service was decent, and food came out timely. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The casual picnic tables outside only allow drinks and fries. They have corn hole and frisbee golf outside, and shuffle board inside. ”
“ You're not gonna get the best experience if you come here for the food rather than the beer. My first experience here was just drinks, which was awesome- the apricot wheat is delicious. Service is my biggest concern here. They close the kitchen far before the restaurant does and they should make that clearer- you need to come more than an hour before the restaurant closes if you want food. Otherwise, good place to get drinks ”
