What a hidden gem! We did go inside (clean and spacious) but ate in the courtyard. Wings came out fast, crispy and full of sauce. The blue cheese has big chunks! (No carrots but celery was large thick and crisp) Gail is the mvp of servers! Our drinks were never empty, she seems genuinely happy to be at work, knowledgeable about the menu and seasonal drinks. Checked on us regularly, even a few times to poke out while we were eating. Gave us plenty of napkins. Admittedly we would double ask (when she brought something to us we’d ask for something else….sorry Gail! But she happily fulfilled our request) Our main meals came out just as we were finishing out starter, perfect! Get the burger, the bun is more like a brioche roll. Tuesday is bogo drafts and food special (3-8) I highly recommend this place for amazing service, great food, large portions and affordable prices. We will be back!

We used to live about 5 minutes from the Brickyard and ate there regularly. After moving away 12 years ago we were visiting friends in the area this past weekend and had the opportunity to have dinner here. It is unchanged and still a great place to get food or a drink with friends and family. It's a casual atmosphere and super friendly staff. The food is still excellent, especially the pizza. You will not be disappointed.

First time dining here and would recommend. Buffalo chicken dip to start was delicious - the loaf of bread was an excellent addition to the chips included. Wrapped up our burger and sandwich because we were so full from everything. Also, my husband enjoyed their Tuesday special of buy one, get one beers. The best part was the service. Our server was attentive, kind and personable. She made our experience a superb one.

I ordered dinner for my husband and I during the 2020 outbreak around 7:45 at night. Even though it was supper close to close the staff was wonderful on the phone, they let me place and pay for my order, and even brought it out to my husband after close. When the food got to our house it was still hot and tasted amazing. They were so wonderful during a crazy stressful time! Will 100% be back and will bring friends and family once the craziness dies down.

Good beer excellent atmosphere 👌 Little expensive

Nice, small tavern that you could easily miss if you weren't looking for it. I did!!! I went there with some friends a few weeks ago. I had a Chicken Parmesan Sandwich. The sandwich was very hot, but quite good. My friends all had salads. I guess that they enjoyed them. I had no idea of where to park, so I parked on Low Street and walked over to the place. I heard that there is a small parking lot out back, but I'm not sure if I want to try it for the next time. Good food, nice staff. Check it out!!!

Nice pub setting. Indoor and outdoor seating. The service was good. We shared some wings as an app and they were very good. A little crispy and just enough sauce. The Cobb salad was a big bowl and had plenty of veggies and it was good lettuce not iceberg. The Greek salad was also a large portion and good veggies.

We arrived at The Brickyard Tavern at 4pm on a Saturday. Only one high-top had 2 customers at it and there was 1 person at the bar, who turned out to obviously be a 'regular'. He was vocal about his standing in the establishment volume wise and also as we departed with an inappropriate comment clearly showing he was intoxicaxted, which could have ended differently had my 6'5, 280 lb. husband chosen to address it. Such restraint! Anyway, full disclosure I'm a Doordash driver and have been here several times for deliveries AND the only reason we came here for a meal is that we received a gift certificate for here in Christmas of 2023 that we really needed to use. The place has always had a decent crowd, so one would assume they're doing something right, right? Personally, I think they're surviving because they're one of a few restaurants in a very small town (population 5100). When you walk through the entry way to get to the door, you walk through the 'patio'. Forgive me I forgot to take pic but you are NOT missing anything. The space would be wonderful if it was used right. Instead it has 5 round metal tables with a few chairs strewn around. No upkeep at all. I've been a Doordash driver for 4-5 years and it's always looked this way. Inside isn't very inviting either, but it is clean. There isn't any natural light other than the 3 window across the front of the building. Seeing as the restaurant runs deep and not wide, both natural and electric lighting is poor. The seating available is the bar or high-top tables unless you call to reserve one of the 3 standard tables in the back of the restaurant that are situated between the hallway to the restrooms on one side and the hallway/area the waitresses use to the kitchen on the other. As for the meal. The menu was all over the place. In that I mean that they had everything from wontons to Mexican to meatloaf to pizza and everything in between! To the point you really don't have a clue how fresh things are or what they're micro defrosting to cook on the spot. We decided to do something we've never done before because we didn't really care for setting, the menu or Roger the regular at the bar so we ordered to go and had drinks and an app there. I ordered a whiskey sour, hubby had 2 Michelobe Ultra. He was safe, I ended up having 2, which were like completely different drinks with neither 'right'. Now we had to use the gift certificate or we really would have not stayed. Hubby ordered steak sandwich with peppers, onions and sauce, with a container to go. lol I ordered safe and got fried dumplings with sweet/spicy sauce, because I knew they would be frozen, for the restaurant and a capresse salad to go. Dumplings were as expected, frozen and dipping sauce bottled but for $13 I'd rather have had them at home in the air fryer than oil. $20 steak sandwich with fries had decent flavor but very small for the price. Hubby said that while it wasn't the worst, there are other places that he would much rather have. My salad was actually pretty good. Everything was fresh, balsamic vinegaret was good, portion was huge and price was great at $16. While I wouldn't go back to the restaurant itself, I would get the salad again. Now the kicker of the visit was the bill and the gift certificate that was for $100. The bill came to $91+. Most establishments will give you cash back if there is less than $10 left on the certificate. It was just going to be part of the waitresses tip. Not here! They don't refund any of the balance of a gift certificate in cash no matter how small it is. I was dumbfounded. So we had to order a dessert for $7 because we didn't want to forfeit the cash and we were definitely not going back. Most likely the piece of pie we bought will get thrown out and it's a shame. Their 'policy' didn't work for them, us or their employee, because that policy sadly had a trickle down effect as far as their business practices, customer satisfaction and employee tip. As always, we did tip 20%, I wish she had gotten the slice of pie too.

I truly hate to write this review, but they really let themselves go. Unsure what’s happened here besides the lack of care. Hope to save someone else the trip Beer: buddy ordered a Guinness. The one bartender there goes to pour completely incorrectly. Literally, down poured the whole thing all the way to the top. Didn’t even let it settle. The beer was brown when it was served to us. Everyone knows it’s 3/4 down poured at 45 degrees. Settle for 90 sec minimum. Then up pour 90 degrees to fill. Settle again until head formed. How is this not a requirement when you have it on tap. I likely should have called it after that pour. Food: -The whole menu screams frozen and fried to order. I would take a high bet 80% is frozen and from restaurant depot. -normally for a dive bar, this would be fine. But $20+ pricing on some is outrageous when I can go to Walmart freezer section and air fry the same thing To highlight - my buddy ordered the French dip sandwich and I ordered the salad French dip - The great value sponge bread sub roll UNTOASTED COLD with 4 slices of deli meat that was send in the broiler with Swiss cheese, then placed into the cold sponge bread. How can you not use FRENCH baguette for a FRENCH dip??? The “auju” was 100% instant gravy packet. Besides being 80% bread, I was in shock the chef didn’t even try with this one. How much more is a baguette to sponge bread? It’s CENTS. It’s BREAD. The salad- Looked straight out of the “pre mix salad bags” you get at walmart with 4 strings of pre cut cheese on top. Maybe this isn’t what you order at this type of place. It was BOGO beers, we didn’t even stick around for our free beer we wanted out. If you like freezer bag food shoved into the fryers, by all means, come on in. Brown Guinnesses for everyone
