Hidden gem ! Happy hour is amazing and even happens on Sat and Sun. Get the wings , 9 of them for $7. Draft beer menu is huge and the bottle shop is stocked with unique choices. Lots of TVs .

The Brü & Cru is excellent! You may want to share it, though. Brü Burger was excellent, as well ! ONE server and ONE hostess for the whole place, though?? Steve(the server) did a great job alone.

Hector Tapia

Is by far our favorite place in the area, great wine selection , delicious food (try the steak tips , the flat bread and the Brü and Crü , but above and beyond, ask for Kat to be your waitress !!!

Brü & Cru is great, but you may be better off sharing it. The Brü Burger is excellent. They are terribly short-staffed. ONE hostess , and ONE server, with ONE bartender ? Service is a bit slow.

Kiann Suess

The Brü Burger is fantastic, the Turkey Melt amazing! The beers are crisp (try the orange wheat) and the Brü and Crü (pretzel bread ) a nice bar food. A little pricey and slow service but nice people.

Tremendous food and beer selection . Great unique cocktails as well . Service is fast and friendly . Best Farm to Market operation in all the OC. Since it is right off the freeway tot totally convenient!

Have to recommend the marguerite flatbread . Very simple but tasty. And they have basil gimlet . My latest fav cocktail .

Mark Lonier

Excellent beer selection . Great service. Community tables in bar area. Excellent wings , cheese plate .

Andrew Watson

Service is very very slow at times. Happy hour bar food is great and the beer selection is amazing. However, your server, although nice, usually disappears for long periods of time.

Annmarie Hill

Large open space . Patio seating . Communal seating and traditional style in the bar area. Love the decor!

Jennifer Dooley

It's only a few weeks old, but it shows great promise. They were out of a few things, but everything we had was fantastic! We'll definitely be back!

Joe Davanzo

Food is good but quite expensive . The buffalo wings arent regular, they call them tulips because they strip have the meat off the wings so that you hold the bare bone and eat the "Flower" of meat

RosaAkaNana

Lagunitas is the bomb! You will enjoy it! Especially when you make new friends ;)

Matt
