Reviews of The Washington Brewing Company

Fantastic lunch at The Washington Brewing Company today! Our server Jamie was very helpful in going over the new menu with us & making recommendations. I was looking to try something different and the Reuben with fresh cut fries did not disappoint! The zucchini bruschetta is my favorite with their house made ranch dressing! I love the new menu, the excellent service & their attention to detail and social distancing. Wonderful experience!

POOR SERVICE. We stood at the hostess stand where it said to "Wait to be Seated" for 10 minutes with several other parties before a waitress came around to tell us to seat ourselves. My wife and I sat at the bar to only find out that there was no bartender or anyone serving the patrons seated at the bar. After about 15 minutes we started to move to a table because they looked like they might be getting served. Finally a waitress dropped off some menus but we did not see her again for another 15 minutes. She finally came back and took our drink order. We found that the menu did not reflect what they actually had on tap. We saw the owner come in and stand behind the bar doing nothing. You would think he would help if there was a shortage of personnel. I engaged the owner in a conversation and he was very smug. He bragged about owning the distillery, brewery, and restaurant. I did not try their cocktails, but we drank a flight of their beers which were rather good. Their brown ale and their signature Washington Lager were very good. We never saw the waitress again so we did not get to order anything else. We decided to leave and never could find anyone to take our credit card. Finally we put cash on the bar and left.

Was looking forward to their Lenten fish sandwich. I had it last year a few times and it was delicious. So things have changed drastically. I can't believe I just paid $17 for limp cold fries and a fish sandwich not even big enough to fill the bun. There was literally about 1/4 the amount of fish as last year. I understand we have inflation. But to increase the price drastically and reduce the amount of food even more drastically is unacceptable. I've felt less ripped off at movie theaters and amusement parks. Terrible.
