Brewster's Pub 1885 Lake Pine Drive, Cary, NC 27511

"I came here with some friends. Their Mac and cheese wasn’t as good as I’d heard, but the pickle chips and waffle fries were both amazing. Service is pretty good—our server was quite attentive and friendly. The Cajun waffle fries with my wrap were so good!! Very fried & crunchy!"

"Nice environment, good prices on drinks, but food could be better. Their menu also has a surcharge warning for credit card purchases"

"I can't respond to Gail's review of her negative experience at Brewster's this past Sunday so I wanted to add some context she may not have been aware of, it may not change her experience but what she isn't aware of is the lore behind that glorious green bucket hat and why this patron's antics may have been how they are. Said individual is a regular in that bar, yes, and the staff will definitely give him some extra grace from time to time, their prerogative to do so as much as it is for you to take your business elsewhere. I don't think you're going to change this by writing a negative review, if we could review people that's one thing, but negatively impacting a business with your negative review is pretty petty and trite to say the least. The owner of that glorious green bucket hat is a lifelong Brown's fan, so that alone should earn him some grace, I digress back to the origins of that hat..... 10/15/23 at a different location during the Browns/49's game while trailing the 49's the Browns backs were against the wall, the team needed a momentum change. Said patron adorned what would from then on be referred to as 'The Hat'. Did the Browns mount a monumental come from behind win? Yup. Did they continue to do so week after week while he adorned said hat (and unwashed outfit)? For the most part.... So Gail, while I understand you had a bad experience you have the option of choosing which 'dive bar' to pop into in the area, there are no shortages. Do the bar staff give said patron some leeway from time to time, probably, but you know why? He's loyal to the establishment and they appreciate his patronage. Going out on a limb that Brewster's will survive without your family's business and you have really made me reconsider anyone I'd call a 'Karen' to calling them 'Gail's' moving forward. Have a Happy Holiday Season Gail!"

"Unbelievable dive this place has taken when they would do nothing about this very very loud very drunk (over served) guy at the bar. The manager seemed to be buddies with him so who even knows if he's paying to slug down the 4-5 beers he had while we had a quick to get out of there dinner. The manager didn't care so we will take our money elsewhere. THIS IS WHAT I THOUGHT 5 YEARS AGO: The staff really makes this Pub. When we don’t feel like cooking or just want a friendly neighborhood feeling place to hangout this is the spot."
