Three Pints Brewpub

This location is closed. The building is for sale. They tried to generate business by having trivia and giving gift certificates as prizes but that failed.

Good food and beer. I have had a couple bad experiences here with waitresses, though, where they’ve tried to short me on my change.
Their beers are very good. My favorite is the Scottish.

I visited Three Pints Brewpub specifically to taste all of their brews via two flights. From other reviews, I knew their menu was lacking, so I ate prior to my arrival.
Beer is very subjective; however, I can speak from years of experience drinking craft brews. I can honestly say that I liked 10 of the 12 beers I tasted. My favorites were the Chocolate Raspberry Stout and the H.I.L.F.
I visited on a Friday evening and sat on the patio; the place was dead for the 2 hours I was there. Our server was very professional and attentive; I never had to wait to get served.
I would definitely recommend Three Pints as a place to go and drink !

Just another Pizza place. They used to have a great menu with ok beer selections. Now all they have is pizza, nasty meatballs and salad. Unfriendly staff and crappy beer. We wont be back.

Food is slightly better than it was before they revised their menu, however the service was terrible. Had to go up to the bar to order more beer and get refills when our waitress disappeared for a while. There are much better local breweries in the area, we will not be going back.

Great beer, excellent pizza.
I had the pale ale, soon to be renamed Three Pints Pale Ale. Very tasty, nicely hopped. Well balanced.

We stopped in based on prior experiences and meeting some friends. What a complete shock that the entire menu had changed. Although the food is still really good, the fantastic french onion soup is gone along with many other items that were fantastic. It’s a very basic menu and not many options for a diverse crowd. This is truly disappointing as they have a great location a great atmosphere. Not sure we will be returning now based on all the changes that have happened.

I’ve started this review two or three times now, but I’m at an absolute loss for words.
Upon being greeted by our waitress, she informed us that the kitchen was not accepting anymore pizza orders because they were too backed up. Then so nicely stated she «hoped we weren’t too hungry». It’s 7PM on a Thursday night, of course I’m hungry!
The menu in general isn’t all that great to begin with. It’s ALL pizza (and over priced at that). No appetizers, nothing. The beer isn’t my favorite. I typically enjoy blonde ales, but their Beatnik Blonde is my least favorite of all the blondes I’ve had around town.
I love local. I love supporting local businesses. However, I cannot put a good review behind this place. It appears they really have some soul searching to do and hopefully they get it figured out before they lose their entire customer base.

I have been here several times since this restaurant has been opened and they just cannot decide on a menu. I was there 2 weeks ago to a nice menu of fish, burgers etc. I go last night and it is just pizza. They give you a small slip of paper where you checkbox your pizza. You also cannot remove topping from your pizza which tells me they are frozen/​premise. There are no other food options. The waitress told me it was Bc they were now a traditional brewhouse. I was confused Bc I thought they were a brewhouse before.
The pizza was tasty but for the price ($ 12.95-$ 14.95) I would have went to a different location to meet my friends for dinner.
The waitresses also felt 8:30 was a great time to shut the tvs off and start putting chairs on top of tables. Nothing like feeling rushed out.
I just really don’t feel like this restaurant will be around much longer and that is sad.

This place has gone from a 4+ Star eatery and pub to a ZERO star BOMB!!! Whoever has made the decisions to (A) change the menu, (B) Take away the lunch hours, & © Offer this «Pizza Only» menu needs to be recognize the errors of their ways. I used to absolutely love this place and it pains me to write this review. For anyone to take time out of their day to tell it how it is, hopefully will demonstrate to the owners of his once fine establishment, the obvious errors of their ways. Here’s «Food for Thought». If you think that these decisions will not harm you in the long run, think again. There is still time to turn this around, but I fear that these poor business decisions may be set in stone by unqualified individuals who are blinded by foolish logic. We’ll see what happens from here. It’s a sad day in Plainfield.

The beer flight is a fair price and they have some really unique choices. I loved the beef and beer chili, especially since they didn’t shy away from the spiciness like a lot of places do. The service, on the other hand, was sub par… Good thing the food made up for it.

How a once great brew pub has fallen!
We used to go to 3 pints every weekend. Always had a great time, and the food was AWESOME! We started trying different places so it’s been a while since we had been and thought it would be nice to go back for some great food and decent beer.
The wait staff was super friendly and were always glad to see you coming back. It was a friendly happy place to go to.
That was then, this is now…
WOW, I can’t get over how this place has just turned to shit, in a short time frame.
I walk in and you have to wait to be seated. The man that is seating people had just sat one table ahead of us, and then another. He comes back and starts talking and then walks away. 8 minutes later he comes back and asks if we want to be seated. I told him, that I wasn’t standing there for my health. We laughed and were seated. We are handed a one sheet menu. The full menu that they offered is no longer a option, and the food is down to next to nothing. No apts to speak of, chips and salsa, are $ 8.00! 8 DOLLARS for chips and salsa, and if you want guac, it’s another $ 3.00. Gone are the fresh made pretzels with beer cheese, gone is everything was good on the menu. Fresh soups, gone, chili, gone…
We ask our server. Who was the only bright spot for this once great place. She tells us that they recently did a menu switch, and that it didn’t go over well with a lot of the regular customers, and the management didn’t seem to care what we all thought.
She also then informed us, that in the next 2 weeks, (sometime at the start of February) they will no longer be offering anything other then PIZZA. They are switching to just a beer place, but because of a state law they have to have food, so they are going to go with the easiest and cheapest thing they can, and that they are running out of everything on the menu. They took out equipment, including the fryers and grill and will not even have the option to make anything other then the pizza. The staff would all be downsized also, so just about everybody there is going to be without a job in under 2 weeks. So you can tell that people working now, just don’t care about ANYTHING, why should they? They won’t have a check in a few weeks.
KEEP IN MIND now, that this is 2 weeks away before this is going to happen.
I order a chicken club and a fish sandwich. We get the chicken club, but they no longer have pickles, so there won’t be any of that. The chicken which according to the menu is a chicken breast, comes out as shaved chicken breast meat which I think came from Meijer or Kroger. They no longer carry bacon, so there isn’t any bacon on it either. This sandwich cost’s $ 9.99 and they don’t have 3 items that are supposed to be on the damn thing!
In addition to that, I am given 10 french fries. 10… small fries. I just laughed. Now the fish sandwich is a mushroom, onion and something else… turns out, they didn’t have any fish, so they just made a veggie sandwich, slapped a bunch of stuff on it and sent it out.
After waiting for 15 mins, our waitress, who is waiting on the WHOLE restaurant, by herself, comes back to see how things are.
We point out everything and they «find» fish in the back and make the correct sandwich for us. We are told by whoever brings it out to us that it would be taken off of the bill.
As a food service professional, I inform our sever (when she comes bouncing back to us from all over the place) that she should start a list of things that they are out of, so she can tell other guests when they order so others don’t have to go through what we just went through. She had no idea about my bacon, and the chicken and the fries, so she goes to say something to the manager, but the manager is too embarrassed to come out of the kitchen, so they take $ 6.00 off of our check. They told us that the fish sandwich would be taken off, it wasn’t and then this??! We are just so over it at this point that we just want to leave, so we pay the bill and leave.
Our poor server is apologizing over and over, and you can tell that she’s doing the best that she can, with little to no help.
It’s really sad to see this place like it is now. It was a great place to go. When friends come in from out of town, this was a place that I took them, or if people were passing through, I would meet them there. This will no longer be a option. I don’t see how they can stay in business this way. The beer is average at best, and they are basically shutting everything down to just do it!!! I don’t think they will be open much longer, and if they are still going by years end it will be nothing short of a miracle.
Sad, sad, sad, to see a once great place, just be ran into the ground and nobody seems to care.
I would avoid going, save yourself the disappointment. There are other places to go, including other beer pubs within 1 mile of here. Go to them.

This place used to be awesome… Now it sucks!!! The menu has gotten smaller (less than 20 items) and the food has also diminished in size! Got rid of all the good appetizers and their burgers used to be fresh, now they are pre-​made patties:(The fish before had you full, unfortunately we all left hungry:(If you like beer only, it is OK at best, and the staff is very rude… WON“T be returning again:(

We visited last night and had a very relaxed experience.
Our server was spot on and super helpful.
We took his recommendation on the White Chicken Bacon Alfredo pizza, along with the Buffalo Chicken pizza, pretzel with beer cheese and a ½ order of nachos. Don’t judge, the pizzas were small and there were leftovers.
The chicken bacon alfredo pizza was very flavorful. Will definitely get that again. The buffalo pizza wasn’t as saucey as I’d like. I asked for a side of the hot sauce for dipping. That did the trick.
The nachos were good. The chips appeared to be homemade. Basic beef with queso, sour cream, blk olives, salsa etc.
The pretzel was good, although a little on the hard side. The beer cheese dipping sauce was the star of the show. Really tasty.
Beers — one of theirs and then one of Taxman Brewery beers. Ended up with a growler of the Taxman to go. If you are into Stouts, it’s worth trying.
I thought the atmosphere was light and airy. Plenty of TV’s. There is a bar area and a family area for those that want to bring kids.
Definitely worth checking out. I am a big fan of Black Swan (across the street), but the menus are very different. Both boast a «more than bar food menu», both succeed in their own way.

By hap chance my boyfriend and I were looking for a quick bite near our hotel before heading to a friends to watch Sunday football. I checked the Unilocal reviews as I was sitting at the bar and everyone said to try to pot roast sandwich– they were so so so right. This sandwich is ridiculous. It may be one of the messiest things I’ve ever ate but I enjoyed every messy minute of it. My boyfriend ordered the fried tenderloin sandwich which was great too. He eyed my plate so much I had to give him a bite and ever got my food back as he finished it. If I ever found myself on this side of Indy again– no doubt I would be back. Now, to find out if they ship to Florida…

Boy, was I surprised to learn that Plainfield had a craft brew pub. I had no idea. I was pleased that it was a good experience.
This seems like a local favorite, so be prepared for it to be busy. I would say it is worth the trip though.
I had a beer sampler and the Pot Roast sandwich. Get the pot roast sandwich, with the caramelized onions. Darn good sandwich. I had the Three Pints spuds (deep-​fried baby potatoes) but I was underwhelmed. Definitely a different side dish nest time.
My companion had the Patty Melt burger with sweet potato fries. I had a bit of the burger and it was tasty. The fries weren’t bad either .
Of the beers, I enjoyed the Yoshi’s Nectar and Plainfield Pale the best. The Buffalue Black IPA was interesting, but not my thing.
I would recommend checking this place out if in the area. Definitely nice to have a local option in that area.

We have lived in Plainfield almost a year and we are just now discovering this place. The brewpub is always busy with locals, so don’t come here if you want quiet. The beer is good and the food is good. I recommend giving this place a shot if you’re in the area!
I have had their rattlesnake pasta dish and their chicken wrap. The pasta dish was so good, but VERY spicy. The chicken was just OK. My husband loves the breaded tenderloin. Oh, and don’t miss out on the pub chips!

We happened upon Three Pints because a friend was throwing a surprise party here. Turns out we showed up during Oktoberfest. This meant that they had a limited, mostly German food menu. No biggie, I could tell a few of the party-​goers weren’t super happy about this, but my husband and I didn’t care and are always willing to try new things. But most importantly they had an AMAZING beer special. 34 oz. mugs of beer for only $ 12, you get to keep the mug and refills are only $ 6. It was awesome, but maybe only for the 3 day Oktoberfest. The beers we tried were also very good, we tried Oktoberfest, Yoshi’s Nectar and a wheat beer, I don’t remember the name.
We got the bratwurst special to split and all the food was pretty good, especially the bratwurst but nothing super amazing.
This experience was enough to make me be willing to go back and try it on a regular weekend! Hopefully it will be just as good!

Three Pints does what they do and they do it well. We came in for lunch and were promptly greeted by our server. Service was prompt, courteous and attentive. The staff knows their beer selection very well and are able to make quality recommendations.
We ended up ordering the Beatnick Blonde to drink. It was very nice and light. They do rotate their beers seasonally, so there’s always something new to try.
We have had their nachos before but they offered many more options to customize this time. We opted for beer cheese nachos and weren’t disappointed. The portion size was generous and there were plenty of toppings to keep it going.
We also ordered the jalapeño bites. They were delicious and actually spicy, something Indiana typically doesn’t do well.
If you’re looking for flashy or gourmet this isn’t your place, so just turn around. But the food is consistent and good. The beer is quality and delicious,

This review is for the brewing operation only. If you want to read a horror novel, check out my review of the brewpub.
The beer is mediocre at best. No flavor. Flat. The stuff of homebrewers. And not good ones either.
The servers are not very knowledgeable about the beers that they serve (and not just about the character/​flavor/​finish/​etc., but whether or not they even have any).
Everything about this place just seems like a couple of buddies from high school thought it would be a good idea to get into the brewing business because they thought it would be fun and because they like to drink.
