What People Are Saying About Herkimer Pub & Brewery

In Short
The bartenders are super-friendly, and the tabletop shuffleboard in the back is a worthwhile diversion. Bring some change, because you're sure to find something you like in the jukebox. For food, there's chicken quesadillas, zucchini fries, the BLT with shallot mayo, and a spicy Cuban pork sandwich. Owner-brewmaster Blake Richardson is always twisting knobs on the five silver brewing casks, but he can't keep up with the thirsty crowds.

Herkimer is a great Brew Pub. The food is fresh and delicious. We had the green bean app., Haus salad, fish and chips and the tacos. This was our second time going there as we just moved to the area and were very pleased twice. Service was great.

My girlfriend and I go to the Herk at least twice each month for dinner, and probably another two times in a month just to have a beer and watch the game. We don't go for the food, because the food isn't that great. We don't go for the beer, because the beer isn't that great either. And we certainly don't go for the service, because the service is consistently awful. We go because we live a few blocks away, and we like to support the neighborhood. Well, that changed last night. We decided on the Herk, because we wanted burgers, beer, and a place to watch the Twins game. The bartender (the doosh-bag with the sad blonde mohawk. Ooooh, yr so pseudo-punk and stuff) refused to serve us, because, in his words, "One of the waitresses thinks you've had a few too many already." What? 1. My girlfriend had just gotten off work. 2. He was the first person we'd encountered in the bar. 3. We were ASKING FOR DINNER MENUS. And, most importantly... 4. We simply hadn't been drinking...yet. Understand that my GF and I were ready to plunk down at least $50-60 plus tip, if not more (the beer is overpriced, and the food isn't exactly cheap). We are very good tippers, especially at establishments we frequent a lot. And, again, we hadn't been drinking before we walked through the Herk's front door. What gives? The staff at the Herk has always seemed like a group of stuck up, lazy doosh-bags, but last night pretty much sealed it. My GF and I have both worked in restaurants in the past, so we know laziness and outright doosh-baggery when we see it, and we see it at the Herkimer A LOT. Good riddance. We went to Figlio's instead. They have a better special on Tuesday nights anyway. We would have gone there in the first place, but it's further away. To sum up: Avoid the Herk. Doosh-bags work there. The food kinda bl0ws, and the beer is overpriced. Thanks for your time.

This place is great and has one of the best burgers around and great fries too. If you are a Packer fan planning on watching a game there, you have to get there a couple hours before a game to insure a spot with a decent view of a TV. I'd say a couple more TVs are called for in order to be considered a real Packer Bar. You know all of us Packer fans need to have a good view of our beloved Favre working his magic!
