The beer was very good and the food was even better! Service was excellent! Sweet potato fries were perfect and the ribeye burger was like no other burger.

Great craft beer selection on a chalk board...many choices. Great food, too. Loved the grilled chicken salad and fresh chips with dipping sauces...lava cake, too! Nice informal atmosphere loosely based on a church theme...waitresses wear a Catholic schoolgirl style outfit. Service was good, too!

My husband and I went here and the music was so loud we walked right out. My friend and her husband went there and said the food was good but that they would not go back due to the very loud music. They do have a nice outdoor deck but the music was loud out there too.

I'm not a beer drinker but the crowd seed happy with this specialty pub. Great French fries and flatbreads.

The beer is always good and abundant but the service here was lacking! There on a Sunday afternoon and you would think they would be excited to have customers but the table service did not reflect that. We had to go to the bar each time. Try the Azusa Chapter! They are friendlier and more helpful!

Really enjoyed this, and appreciated that they had multiple vegetarian offerings. Nice beer selection, too. My only complaint is that they don't have enough seating. We sat outside and there were heaters, but it was pretty chilly. Also, I really like their system for ordering. You start a tab, then the staff comes out with iPhones/iTouches and adds to your...

Pretty good place for a beer. The first time I was there during the week, there was wait service. However, on Friday nite, guests were to order up at the bar. It was super busy and the way the bar/restaurant is organized seems a bit out of whack. However I think it could be fixed easily. The food is fairly... More

Love the selection of beers on tap! The food was pretty awesome too. Does get a bit busy, but worth your time.

Went here last night with a group of good friends. It is open seating after 8, but we were able to find a table for eight. They have really cool seating - outside on the balcony and inside. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the service to boot. Attentive, friendly and accommodating. The beer list is fantastic. The list changes... More

Large selection of bears. Novel idea on ordering. You order a drink leave your credit card info. When you order food at your table the server pulls up your account when you are done the check comes without having to give your CC card again. We ordered their sausage platter, flatbreads and sweet potato fries; all were delicious.
