The Brew Kettle

The saving grace for the place was the actual building, which is AMAZING. Props to the designer and the apps - Sweet potato fries and Buffalo Chicken Dip. Other than that - no thank you. The waitress appeared stressed and we tried to let her know we were chill and just looking to hang out and have a good dinner - no go for her. I ordered the plain burger and added cheese, medium well, side of mac & cheese and it came with a small cup of coleslaw. The burger was dry. No ketchup or mustard and nothing was offered. The mac & cheese was dry and gritty. The coleslaw bitter. The husband ordered a Philly cheese steak and fries. Half the bun was empty with that same gritty cheese. The coleslaw...bitter. Our friends ordered chicken fingers and fries - and their fish fry for lent. Needless to say the only one to actually finish and somewhat enjoy their meal... the fish fry! Let's not forget the blatant racism from the table across from us but the cute little up charge on the sweet potato fries from the Honey Butter that they advertise comes with them.

Large place and decent selection of food. My favorite are the sweet potato fries with the special butter. Their selection of beer is large but other than that they either have none or maybe one hard cider. The food sometimes is hit or miss. Staff is wonderful. Feels clean. Just need to step it up on variety of tap drinks other than beer and food choices need an upgrade.

Absolute worst experience I've had here. We just left after having dinner for my birthday. My family and I had to wait 15 minutes for a server to be flagged down by me for her to take our drink orders. She didnt know what mixed drinks you sold. When out food came out all of our burgers were burnt to the point my kids couldnt eat them. They forgot my fries and the bacon for my wifes burger. Her burger was also undercooked and she is pregnant. Safe to say this is the last time we will be eating here. Thanks for souring my birthday and spoiling one of my favorite places to get a drink in Amherst.

Had the Hot BBQ wings as an appetizer and was overwhelmed with how LARGE and meaty they were. Our meals were just as HUGE and loaded with flavor. Also enjoyed a full bodied Milk Stout known as Kitka-- very delicious. Just a really good spot to hang, eat, watch some sports, and sip on some bevvies. Highly Recommended!!
