I recently ordered a jerky chicken bowl, and while some parts were good, the overall experience wasn’t great. The beans, pico de gallo, rice, and chicken were all fresh and tasted well-prepared, which I appreciated. However, the entire bowl was extremely spicy—far beyond what I expected. I normally have a very high tolerance for spicy food, but this was overwhelmingly spicy to the point that it took away from the enjoyment of the meal. Because of this, I’ll be staying away from the bowls in the future. If I decide to order from here again, I’ll stick to the pizza instead.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

In one word. Terrible. Had the wings. Worst I ever had. Done in turbo chef oven or something. Skin rubbery. Not good. I left 3 of 6. The “watchos” which are waffle fries with beer cheese and bacon were also terrible. Fries not cooked enough. Was a soggy mess. Then there was the Caesar salad. Not impressed. Supposedly they have good pizzas someone said but the topping combinations were just wierd. One involved putting lettuce on it after it was cooked. Overall the place looks like someone spent the least they could on co vetting an old building into a brewery type restaurant. All food served I. Paper plates, bowls, etc. Plastic forks…and the cheap kind. Broke 2 eating a salad. This place is for beer drinkers who don’t know how to cook and who don’t know what good food is. We didn’t finish anything but the bloody Mary’s. And they didn’t have hot sauce. Who makes bloody Mary’s and has no hot sauce. Also everything is self serve. You have to go to a counter to order and have to pay beforehand. Why I tipped I have no idea. They didn’t do anything. And this little restaurant is inside of the brewery so you have to have 2 tabs. Ridiculous.

It’s nice to have this as a food option inside the goose and monkey. My kids love it, because it has pizza and nachos etc., and by “kids” I mean my 20-year-olds! I enjoy it because there are a few things on the menu that are not so heavy. Sure, I love a pizza with a beer, but it’s nice that they have bowls. I’d like to see a couple of other protein options, such as shrimp or fish. That would be fabulous on some of their bowls. Just some grilled shrimp added to any of their bowls would be great! With some other protein choices. Some tofu. Some sort of Jamaican jerk chicken or Caribbean spiced chicken. A few new proteins would go a long way to updating some of their bowls. As it is now, I feel like I’m always getting the same option.
