Ithaca Beer Co. Taproom

DONT USUALLY DO BURGERS AT RESTAURANTS, BUT THIS ONE WAS GREAT, THE BEET SALAD ALSO, DID A FLIGHT, THEN A VANILLA PORTER, LOVE IT ALL

Palpable apathy. I've had great experiences many years ago but my last three visits were decidedly lackluster. We're told it's an 80 minute wait upon arrival but when we ask for about outdoor seating we're told sure go ahead. I counted 31 empty tables. And they're selling one sandwich outside but you can order (only) fries at the bar. So I do. They tell everyone it's a 2-5 minute wait but it takes nearly half an hour. A guy that might have been a manager asked me what I was waiting on, pointed to some fries, and told me they probably just lost my order. Then he simply walked away. All of the ten employees I interacted with seemed apathetic or annoyed. I don't understand what they're aiming for with this location but the slow, confused, bored service and limited options every time I visit has turned me off of returning.

If I could this place a zero star rating I would!!! We came here on Father's Day and we waited over an hour to GET OUR TABLE and it over TWO HOURS to WAIT for our food! So in total we waited over THREE HOURS for water and some drinks!! We LEFT when another table that ordered AFTER us got their food first! No compensation or anything!!! I will never be coming again!!!!

You're not gonna get the best experience if you come here for the food rather than the beer. My first experience here was just drinks, which was awesome- the apricot wheat is delicious.Service is my biggest concern here. They close the kitchen far before the restaurant does and they should make that clearer- you need to come more than an hour before the restaurant closes if you want food. Otherwise, good place to get drinks

We held our rehearsal dinner here on Thursday night, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The staff was so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and timely. They were over the top accommodating with our two guests with allergies, both of whom said they have never had a restaurant be so thorough and accommodating with ingredients, omitting and changing up recipes for sauces and marinades to allow our guests to eat. The food was so delicious and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. We visit Ithaca Beer Co. every time we’re in Ithaca and I know they have lots of new fans now.
