Benning Brew Pub

Drink was good! Service was not so good. We felt like we were bothering the bartender when we tried to order shots after are drinks. Would have tipped better. Oh well.

They have about 25 TVs and alway have the UFC fights for free. Very cheap place to drink also nice and clean I come at least 5 times a month. Free pool on Thursday and karaōke every first Friday of the month.

Place is full of underage privates drinking! It’s horrible that this place caters more towards temporary duty soldiers. Tonight I saw a group of 10 or so marines all privates drinking in uniform. And Then I saw a officer fratinizing with another private. They need some new management or something, cause I would enjoy a spot on post to get a drink close to home.

This is a great spot to unwind after a long workday. The bartenders are pleasant and attentive, and they have themed movie nights on Wednesday and free pool on Thursday. The beer is tasty and well priced. I have been on post for about four weeks now and have not had a bad time there. I can’t wait to go back.

The beer was just ok for a micro brewery. Better than most comercially produced beers but not as good as most other micro breweries. It was however convienant since I did not feel like venturing off post. In order to get a beer though you had to go to the bar no waitress making sure I was taken care of for a beer. The beer and food were seperate establishments. There was a waitress for the food but she did not deal in beer. The food came from the adjacent Mexican food place. It was pretty good I asked the waitress what she recomended and it was a shrimp dish that was a lot like shrimp Fajitas. She warned me that it was spicy but being the big tuff Texan that I am I did not believe her. She was right though it was pretty spicy. This would be a good place to watch a game or the fights. They have the pay per views on several big screen tv’s. You might have to deal with some LT’s though.

Bottom line: this place sucks. I was here for a course and since it was on post I thought, ‘Yeah, I’ll avoid it.’ Any place on post is to be avoided.
However, since it brews its own beer I thought I would give it a shot. I was wrong. A Friday night some of my classmates had decided to check it out since they show the UFC fights here. The place was dead-​which cemented my thought that most people here avoid it. Their beer was okay, but the biggest complaint I have? The service, the bartenders were terrible it wasn’t that they seemed standoffish or passive they were out and out rude.
No waitress service to speak of, we beat a hasty retreat. One of the guys was dead set on going back though and we did around 2330, that’s 11:30pm. We walked in and the rude staff unkindly let us know that they were closed, even though there were plenty of people outside and some guys playing pool.
A guy who’s stationed here said he doesn’t like coming here because he sees officers getting drunk in uniform-that’s just a disgrace.
