    Was there on a cold day so will need to come back when the weather is nice, but the grilled cheese donut was so much better than I expected and the waffles are so fun though you need to share it.

    I'm always surprised when I find a cool spot in the FiDi. The pretzel wasn't the best BUT the spicy mustard made it worth it! Can't wait to come back when it's warm to take advantage of the patio.

    Clinton Hall prides themselves on their cycling beer menu, with brews from the U.S, Germany, Scandinavia and more. Try their signature bratwurst and giant pretzels, or the Black Angus Burger. Read more

    A great place to hang out with friends and enjoy a beer especially if you're a connoisseur. Beware of the wings though if you're not a fan of hot snacks, because it will leave your mouth watering.

    Rotating selection of 20 on tap, plus 10 select craft beers served and stored exactly to the brewmaster's conditions. Get an oversize game of Jenga & Connect Four started or a game of Ping-Pong. Read more

    Excellent addition to the neighborhood. Great rotating list of craft beers, low key vibe and surprisingly good food for a beer hall. Get the pretzel or one of the brats

    Clinton Hall raises a serious selection of craft beer, without a lot of fluff. Growlers are available, and the bar really brought its game for Beer Week 2014.

    Great atmosphere and beer selection tucked into a street corner. Connect four, jenga, and life size chess!

    Beer & sausages? Yes please. Bratwurst is tasty. Chorizo has nice spice but is a little crumbly. Head to can about 10 mins before you need to go. Only 2 in the whole joint.

    The classic burger is great and has a pretzel bun! Also, Tripel Karmeliet is fantastic and easy for people who aren't as familiar with good beers!

    Good variety of beers on tap and in the can. The double smash burger was worth the price

    Fun spot to hang out outside and play some games. Ping pong, cornhole, oversized jenga and connect 4. Only downside is minimal seating inside so during winter it isn't the best option.

    A laid back Biergarten in the FiDi. Try a beer you haven't had before. Good spot to meet up with that friend who works on Wall Street.

    One of the coolest spots in FiDi for good beer and bar food. They literally sell goblets of beer.

    This outdoor beer garden has a typical line up of drinks and food, but take advantage of their ping pong table, Jenga blocks, and Connect Four.
