Cool little joint! Great food! We had the stuffed jalepenos and the BBQ brisket burger! We also did a flight! They have more stouts than others so if you're a stouts person you'd really enjoy the beer but deff a beer for everyone

Our beertender J was amazing! The beers were exactly what I was looking for, unique, flavorful, and interesting. J really knew the menu well and took the time to explain it all to us. Can’t wait to be back when I visit Dallas!

This Cuban was on point. If there is a Cuban sandwich on the menu I’m ordering it. I was skeptical about this one and the “dr pepper” glazed ham but it added the perfect amount of subtle sweetness.
I don’t drink beer so I can’t speak to that but my husband said his house flight was really good.

Very fun place to go with a unique and creative beer selection. They even have some vegan munchies.
Lots of good live music and it’s pretty much jam packed. The whole area is packed. You will need an app to park on the street it if you can find any.

Incredible atmosphere and vibe. Drinks and service were great. Love Menace the DJ bumping old school rap and hip-hop on Saturdays.

Everything about this place was great! The food was mouthwatering. The drinks were really good. They have flights available. They also have a beer and bacon pairing. The atmosphere was great. Outdoor seating was nice. Bathrooms were clean. Parking downtown can be tricky. There is a pay-to-park lot right next to the restaurant/brewery.

It was a nice vibe in Deep Ellum this afternoon. This was me and bae's first time here. The dj spinning some old school hip hop today(Sunday, Memorial Weekend) DJ Cruz taking requests. We'll what can I say besides it was great chilling on the patio and listening to music with a glass of wine. (No margaritas here, only beer and wine) We we're hungry by the time we arrived after walking the strip for a while. We ordered at the bar and then had food brought to a table outside. My husband ordered wings and I decided to try the Chipotle chicken strips blah 😒...the scenery vibes are 100 times better than the food. Looks better than it tasted. Tip: ask for the tenders/strips to be well done, I should have 😆. The Chipotle sauce they put on it needs work and just makes chicken soggy. The fries seasoning just made me 😠. Lol wanted so much of a better taste on our empty stomachs...oh the wings were dry. Hey its a bar! With bar food...But the vibes... just great!

We stopped by while in town for a hockey game. Francisco was great: very knowledgeable about the MASSIVE beer list and super friendly. The atmosphere is incredible and very inviting. This is a place for EVERYONE that's looking to grab a brew and enjoy an afternoon. The beer list is extensive so of course there are a few you won't enjoy and several that you will. This is must stop spot if you're in Dallas!!!

We headed to BrainDead Brewing on a warm, sunny Saturday afternoon. We were seated on the patio and two of us ordered beers from our waitperson. Twenty minutes later, one beer arrived, and the server (who was not our waitperson) put the beer down and left without asking whether anyone else at the table was waiting for a drink. Neither the server nor our waitperson returned in the next five or ten minutes to bring the missing beer or to check on our table. Finally one of our party went inside to order at the bar and came back almost immediately with drinks. When another friend joined us we ordered queso and iced tea, and again the drink never arrived at the table. After a long wait, the queso arrived only somewhat warm. We had planned to stay for dinner and a few more beers, but the service was so appalling we left and found a better place a short walk away. The house beers were great, and the queso was good despite not being very hot - but I don’t have plans to return to BrainDead any time soon.

Visited this place Saturday night after driving up from Houston . Service was great. Our waiter did a great job helping us select beer. Forgot what mine was called but it was awesome! Ceviche was very good but too small I felt for $14. I ordered fish and grits. It was good but I thought it would be fried fish but came out grilled. My fault I should have asked. Last thing we ordered was wings. Great flavor but they were so small. Maybe it’s because they order wings that aren’t roided up by chemicals? Lol overall a great experience. We had a good time. Next time we visit Dallas we will go here again. I saw burgers being delivered to other tables that looked very good. Next time I will try a burger....

This place is super awesome. I LOVE all of the art outside of the building. I had the bacon beer flight and it was seriously some of the best bacon I've ever had (and I haven't had lamb or duck bacon before....but it was amazing). I also had the steak salad and would actually go out of my way to stop for this salad the next time I'm in Dallas.

Busy place, a group of people who looked like they came from the suburbs or Uptown were standing right in front of the entrance. They wanted to be seen I guess. Once I got inside to meet my friend I ordered the brojito, champagne, wine and vodka mixed with mint and jalapeño. For $10, I needed a tad bit more alcohol but the brojito is a very refreshing drink. The menu has a nice selection of brews and food. Our waiter was nice and even ran out to give my friends his card that he forgot to place back in his wallet. I would visit again!
Steve Reser
Awesome food and beer. It’s always a good time. Courteous and helpful staff and did I say the beer and food was good? It is!! Try the bacon flight and coma burger!!
Ivanna Lopez
You guys killed the vegan nachos! Except I’m sorta confused why the sour cream that isn’t vegan was added on top of “vegan nachos”, lol. But other than that, I loved this place! Gave me a Portland, Oregon vibe!

Love this place! Outstanding selection of craft beer, most of it produced in-house. Great food and a absolutely fantastic patio. Braindead offers $9 lunch specials during the week that I take advantage of regularly.
Justin Malone
Best place in Deep Ellum to grab a brew and some grub before your show or just for a chill afternoon...whether the beer they brew or the best on the market, they'll have it. Don't forget the food and make sure you ask for Jeff Fryman..he's the best!
Jon Alexis
Great beer, great service. But more than that...the personality of the owners shines through. You can't fake their passion and dedication to making people happy. Chef David goes way beyond on tthe food. Great spot.
Nick Balli
Great selection of beer and cool atmosphere on the patio! Unfortunately we didn’t eat but the food coming out looked awesome!
Jeff Florey
Awesome brewery with great beers and guest taps! They have great events and amazing food. One of the best breweries in Dallas.
Lee Knox
One of the best parts about going to DE for a show is being able to stop by Braindead beforehand for a beer.
David Bond
I enjoyed coming to this brewery/restaurant for game night during the ChristmasNew Year holidays. The beer was excellent, and the food was good too but pricey. It would be awesome if their beer was made available at local grocery stores some day.

I don’t care how full you are....get the milk and cookies! Oh and the brew was amazing. Very cool place to check out if you’re in Dallas. Service was excellent, great food, and cool atmosphere!
