Black Fleet Brewing 2302 Fawcett Avenue, Tacoma, WA 98402

"My main complaint was the food was terrible. I really wish this place the best and I hope they get their act together. But it looks like in terms of food, there are other complaints. I had the pub cheeseburger and ate very little of it. A couple of points. The roll was cold and somewhat stale. Most cooks set the roll on the grill for at least a couple of minutes. Not here. Completely unprepared. Flavor of burger, was minimum, with some spice in the pickles that was not stated on the menu. Greens were not the right type, not crunchy, more spring mix which normally does not go with a burger. Burnt crunchy cheese was a pleasant surprise. Fries were clearly deep-fried right out of a frozen bag. Only tried two of the beers, the Brewer was serving and working the orders. He was quite nice and pleasant, but the service was slow. Only one person. The cook/kitchen really needs to get their act together. The meat looked very much like a preformed, frozen patty. Really disappointed. One in our party parked behind the restaurant, and she felt unsafe. We escorted her back to her car at the end of the evening, which ended quite early for a Friday night. They can fix things."

"Black Fleet is a fantastic local brewery, managed and staffed by a wonderful team. Be sure to visit or catch them at a local farmer’s market like Proctor. I held a 40th birthday celebration for around 45 guests on New Year’s Eve. Laura patiently helped us to organize the event and Kyle was present on the day to pour endless pints. The beer options are diverse, offering something for all - the pilsner is crisp and highly drinkable. The food was also excellent! Numerous friends and family commented on the quality and friendliness of the venue, and plan to return on their own."

"Good selection of beers, including many porters. They have an awesome stout. Clean, nice-looking establishment. Interesting menu, but the food was good. Nice and quick service."

"Fantastic food and beers with outstanding service. The Pub Cheeseburger with the crispy cheese edges is great. Pairs perfectly with the Fire Ship Smoked Red. They also have a great line of merchandise available. The staff is outstanding and always very helpful. Definitely worth the visit."

"We originally went because we liked the theme and design. The beers were beyond our expectations. We tried beer we normally wouldn't and they were phenomenal. The lager was beyond anything I had ever tried. The Smoked Red was amazing. Everyone was friendly and helpful in answering questions and history. Food was excellent - we had pork nachos and smoked salmon wraps / rolls. It was so good. Everything you want in a brewery. Could spend a whole afternoon here and be happy. Love this place."
