25 West Brewing Co - Bloomingdale

What a great atmosphere, exactly what this shopping center needed. The place was over when we were gone. Family friendly place with games for each age group, a lot of seating for large groups. Food was fine, pizza was flat and crust was so hard on the edge it was unusable. Nachos was fine, the grill on them did not really go with the meal. Truffleries were filled and delicious. They had a good choice of beer, a good choice of easy to drink beer. I get the blonde for every beginner beer drinker or if you want a refreshing beer. I'm glad to see what this place will bring!

I have been there three times and the food was amazing each time. The servers are friendly and they get your order right. The funnel cake is amazing and is so large it needs to be shared with a group. I love the pollo loco (chicken tacos). My friends and family usually have the burgers, which they love. The fries are the very, very thick steak cut with a soft inside and crispy outside. The only menu item to stay away from is their ribs. The ribs tasted like a dry steak. Everything else is really good. They have a smaller beer selection than other places, but what they do have is really good. They rotate through different flavors, so each time there is something new to try. I was there on Wednesday game night. It was really fun. There were 8 teams and my team came in 5th. It is a casual trivia game with a wide range of topics. I did not expect to have as much fun as I did. It is worth going on Wednesday night.

I'm so happy this spot finally opened. They have definitely stepped into the brew scene swinging. Beer is amazing, food is super good with really creative creations, desserts are good and they also have a solid list of guest taps. Service is on point and very friendly. Oh! And they also have beer to go! I'll be coming back here alot. Well done!

Attached to Stratford Square Mall, the place is huge! They have a nice little outdoor patio, but of course being at the mall the view is of the parking lot... the brewery was quite cool inside. Huge long bar and rows upon rows of high top tables upon entry. Low tops around the corner by the kitchen. They had shuffle board, tons of games and a few pinball machines for entertainment. The wife had a nice salad and I had the Demon burger, both were excellent. The beers were decent but not astounding, catering to the mall crowd more than the beer geek. Family friendly for sure. The place was dead at 4pm on a Wednesday. The Copperpot Vienna Lager was the highlight, malty and smooth. The Time Space S’mores met my wife’s approval. We also had the Summerland and Juiced: Mango Pineapple, both were decent but lesser so.

Great place. Had some amazing beer (I got a flight because I like to try multiple different ones), the Bavarian pretzel (jalapeño queso and beer cheese for dipping were great), and the chef 's weekly special burger. Everything was delicious. Staff was friendly (my bartender, Tommy, is awesome), started up conversation with some others at the bar and had an all-around good time. Side note: the Design Flaw beer really messed with me. Tasted and smelled like a stout, but looked like an ale! Soooo good.
