Blowing Rock Brewing Company

"Delicious food, good beer, good staff. We came with a big group on a Thursday afternoon and shared a lot of things, and every single thing we had was delicious. Highly recommend. Ben was our waiter and he did a great job."

"They serve food and beer, but if you come for just beer, they have an outdoor beer garden or you can sit at the bar and a few places in the front of the restaurant. The bar was super loud and the bartender forgot about us, so we had to flag him down to get drinks, even though we were sitting at the bar in front of him. We only ordered beers, which were just fine and didn't have a ton of depth of flavor. Their Chai Kolsch was probably their best one, with some nice peppery notes. The food that other people were ordering at the bar looked tasty!"

"We had really high hopes. We were told that it would be a 45-60 minute wait for our party of 5, which was fine, and we waited in their outdoor seating area (“beer garden”) which had a window that opened to the bar so that we could order beer and apps. The beer is pretty fantastic! We had the Peppermint White Stout, Picnic On the Parkway - PB&J Brown Ale, Mel Electrum Honey Amber, and the Meadow Mist Hazy IPA. All were so good - you can’t go wrong. We also ordered the poblano white cheddar dip with pita chips and it was pretty solid as well. After waiting 90 minutes, we were finally seated - got a table by the bathroom, which was unfortunate, but at least we were sitting down after waiting for an hour and a half. We ordered our meal and it took another 45 minutes before we received it. And the food was really just OK and pricey ($17 for a plain cheeseburger). Our waitress was nice, but we rarely saw her. We didn’t get any refills on our drinks and it took about 10 minutes for us to get our bill processed. We were there a total of 3 hours by the time we paid the check and walked out. There are definitely a lot of other restaurants in the area to choose from. If you are just looking for really good beer and tasty apps then come and try them out."

"My family has been coming here since they opened in 2013. It’s been a spot we bring our kids, friends and out of town visitors for good food and a good time. The service is always great too! Yesterday, the staff went above and beyond for us. The hostess was more than willing to get us seated right away since we were on a time crunch, no fault of hers but she was so considerate still. We were seated and our server Maggie was awesome with getting our order in and checking on us with whatever we needed. It’s so nice to have a great place to be able to get great food and treated with such kindness. Thank you all!"

"Stopped in while I'm town visiting from Delaware. The place is a brewery with food and an inn all in one. I had a flight and really enjoyed 3/4 of the beers. There is great seating inside and out and the place has a chill vibe. If we lived here we would certainly frequent this place."
