Busy night after a game & hungry we were so I ordered the biggest burger on the menu. THE MANLY STANLEY- did not eat it all - doggie bag as it was so good.

Glad we stopped.

Enjoyed the beer, food and lively atmosphere.

I’ve DoorDashed here more times than I can count, however I’ve never eaten here. Finally, today I stopped in and i had their in-house Brat and it was amazing!!!

You wanna talk about a portion size well worth the money 23rd St Brewery! You spend money here, your stomach’s gonna be screaming for help 🤣

The staff are lovely, very friendly, fun to talk to and they’re super cool! After you get done shopping at Hy-Vee across the street. Head on over to 23rd St Brewery and knock your rocks off and have a good meal! ☺️

Went on a Thursday during happy hour. Not crowded. Betty was our server; helpful, friendly, patient - checked back with us several times. Beers were good, Grand Margarita was disappointing (maybe because I make really good ones at home?), flatbreads and fish were tasty, fries are different from what they used to be like and not as good, steak was tender and cooked perfectly, mashed potatoes and broccoli were very good. Also turned a fried pickle non-believer into a fan!

Update: our server for our party of 9 was delightful! (I didn't catch her name. 🙁) We had fun and made a mess. 🥳😬 A veggie calzone had pepperoni in it so they remade and comped it. The chocolate birthday cake was a delicious end to our celebration and enjoyed by all.

UPDATE: If you've not been in for a few months, beware of sticker shock. Service and food are still good, but it's gonna cost you.

We have eaten here often. Great service, beer and food. During happy hour you can’t beat the price of beers and the flat bread. Tonight was the first time we tried the Danny Manning…Holy cow! This may be the best thing on the menu! So good!

First time here and the service was superb! Emily the waitress was attentive, knowledgeable and very kind. The front door staff were extremely helpful and respectful during a very busy night. The food was hot and tasted as well as it was advertised! For a family of 8 with 3 grown grown men...we all ate well!

Sunday errand day! And so while traveling south on kasold we decided to try 23rd street brewery for the 1st time. Bellied up to the bar and whoa! Lots of craft beer choices! I had Wave the wheat and hubby had watermelon ale. Both were delicious and icy cold. Note: the bartender graciously gave us samples (!). We both ordered the classic Flatbread which comes out as a pie shape and NOT a rectangle! Just the right amount of toppings that meld together in harmony! The ambience is lovely as you can talk to each other without yelling to be heard. The women's bathroom is large and very clean. All in all, definitely a 5 star place and as hubby said, "we've found a place that rivals Mr. Brews ". Yes we have and we will absolutely be back. We also bought 2 cans to take home and on Mondays they're 2 for 10.00. WOOT!

AND...we're back! Stopped by after a Menards trip. We both had salads. I had NO IDEA the salad I ordered (avocado greens) was going to be able to fee my entire family! Jeeminy! Look at the size of this salad? And the toppings were also huge portions! I bet they used 2 avocados! Just delicious and fresh! Hubby had a side salad and fries (the usual). I had a polly olly beer which was crisp, light and a little happy. Hubby had a bitter professor which he proclaimed delicious! Our new watering hole! We're the ones that sit at the bar. Very clean restaurant and bartenders wipe down surfaces with Microban which is huge thumbs up!

We stopped by today and WOW! the place has been transformed into a snow globe. It's absolutely beautiful! We sat at the bar and our favorite bartender, Kelly, was on staff! YAY! The menu has changed but still offers mouthwatering delights! I ordered the Angus burger (medium rare) with fries. Hubby had thr chicken tenders with fries. So, even though the menu has changed, the portions have not. First, my burger was perfection! So many places shy away from a medium rare anything. Not here. Just cooked brilliantly. The burger is huge-like the size of a saucer and thr amount of fries is wickedly huge. No different for hubby's plate too. We have food for the next 2 days-no lie. I enjoyed a "wave the wheat" beer and hubby had a beer to whose name I disremember. It was delicious. Both were served frosty cold. I love the fact we have CLOTH napkins at the bar. So elegant! Kelly was attentive, efficient and friendly. If you have an opportunity to visit this place during the holidays, you should! The atmosphere is an incredible experience with the multitude of lights and decorations. Don't miss it!

Hubby and I met bff and her hubby here to experience the snow globe as they had never been. We were seated in a booth and quite frankly, the booth seat was in very sad shape. The tear was at least1 foot long and 6 inches wide. I'm unsure why it couldn't be repaired? Really tacky. Our server was lovely and as there was a party going on, drinks and food were slow. Drinks arrived 20 minutes after ordering and food 30 minutes later. So let's chat about the food. I'm guessing the chef has been replaced because this time the food was pretty bad. I ordered fish and chips (see photo). Bff took one look and said, "it looks like it was pulled out of the Kaw, cut the head off, and fried!" She's wasn't wrong. It just looked gross and it was way overfried and very, very bland. Hubby's chicken salad, same thing: overfried and tough. Bff ate 1/4 of her meal grimacing the whole time. Her hubby's burger was overcooked and looked like a piece of leather. Again, not sure what's going on but somethings changed and it ain't pretty OR tasty. I'm bringing my kids here to see the snow globe BUT we'll have a beer and move on to another food venue. I hope this restaurant returns to its former glory. Fingers crossed!
