Terence ChanNovember 1, 2014Def go with the ribs. They're a little dry and overdone to my standards but surprisingly good quality and flavor for Atlanta and a brewery with good beers. Nice smokey flavor without too much sauce
Jeffrey NelsonOctober 1, 2018Fish and chips we're good, lightly breaded, not too heavy. Have to check out the upstairs bar. Nice selection of sours on tap. The Flanders was deliciously sour.
Jonny McCormickAugust 31, 2016The beer and southern fried chicken 🍗. I had the Diva Session ale paired with the southern fried chicken, mashed potatoes & collard greens. It was incredible. A cool little place with great staff.
Tim TaffApril 30, 2015Small, but really good, beer list. 6 beers on tap, all brewed on site. Tonight's list included an IPA, rye pale ale, dunkel, doppelbock, red, and black IPA. Worth coming for.
Katie WrightMarch 23, 2014Southern fried chicken is great!!! Has a sweet first bite and a spicy after bite. Corn mashed potatoes and collards made for an excellent pair.
Margot VigeantNovember 25, 2014Good beer! Good food. They will accommodate large parties as well- we had 30 from a conference at the Marquis, they found us space on a few days' notice.
Judy HortonNovember 8, 2014Brisket Burger yummy and unique. Fried cheesecake desert is a must. And of course the Max Red beer as well as The Gremlin Porter beer were just perfect.
AtlantaJuly 29, 2014Brew Master John Roberts loves beer, and loves for you to try his beer. We say you should head over and give the Hopsplosion a whirl. And then maybe the Max Red.
Donna PayneJune 17, 2014The burger with bacon was very Yummie! I'm not a beer drinker, smells like malt liquor. But for beer drinkers! Great place!! Good food too!
Berkeley GoodloeDecember 17, 2014I'm wary of anywhere that tries to upsell their menu. The IPA is good but generic. This is one of those places that feels like they care more about selling expensive steaks than the craft of beer.
Try the Wraps - Don't remember what it was called but it was today's special and it was delicious. (via @Foodspotting)
StoffelJune 4, 2015Had three different beers and a steak. It was all awesome! Try as much as you can!
James LindleyAugust 30, 2013If you are in Atlanta, GO TO MAX LAGER'S! The fried chicken was so damn good I wanted to cry. I could cut the filet with a fork. The flavors are full and robust! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- Ken GrossJune 6, 2017Great food selections. Even made a salad that wasn't even on menu. Beer selection good also. Service was great.
Awesome fresh beer and the staff can provide great recommendations. We had the Hopplosion!!! iPA and ribs and they were excellent.
Susan RiceAugust 6, 2016The beer selection was pretty good they actually had their own Stout which was nice. The burger was large and very juicy.
Steve SmythAugust 6, 2013Packed for dinner but bar seats worked out well. Try the Trout - wicked cream sauce and heat from jambalaya rock! Paired with house Minion ESB.
Lindsay WilliamsDecember 19, 2017Beer, burgers, brisket sandwich. The service is great and the prices are reasonable.
The beers change but if you can catch the Gimme Chocolate Bock, it's great.
- RossNovember 9, 2015Shrimp on a pizza sounds strange but the Mediterranean pizza tasted great. Pairs well w IMOS stout.
A RDecember 5, 2014Tried the Abbey and the Helles, both great beers. Probably can't go wrong with any of them.
David StallmanJanuary 2, 2014Wow. If your looking for a really cool place with great food and great brew, this is it. Definitely glad I stopped in!
Amy TollefsonMarch 16, 2013Always make sure to try THEIR own beer! Love the bacon cheese burger & fries, steak is great and great staff
Terry QuinlinApril 17, 2016Great Food! Try their southern fried chicken. excellent! Key lime is awesome.
Ashley CarterAugust 16, 2012The Dark Side Indian black ale (house brew) is creamy and delicious. And the fried cheesecake is OUT OF THIS WORLD.
Dexter PorterApril 24, 2013Would like the head chef to try an idea I have. Incorporate southern Georgia chow chow relish into a dish, just try it chef.
Natalie PereiraJune 3, 2013Had the grits, Mac and cheese, salmon BLT, pilsner and a stout. Everything was insanely good! A perfect end to my weekend trip!
Whitney BakerDecember 7, 2013Everything we've had is amazing, but get the Caesar salad with your meal. Delish!!
Chris KonecnyOctober 2, 2013Can't beat fresh beer and this stuff is usually on the money. Great oasis of a back patio
Laura E.July 16, 2012Great food! A few mishaps with our meal, but the manager made good on all of them! We will be back!
Creative Loafing AtlantaMarch 7, 2012IMOS Cask Tapping. The St. Patrick's Day Parade begins in front of Max Lager's doorsteps, and the bar is celebrating with specialty beers. At noon they will be tapping three casks Read more
Amanda SilviaJanuary 18, 2014Hit the bar with Scott. He knows his brews and is a great guy! Made it worth getting lost in the cold..haha
Matthew NelsonNovember 20, 2013The transition (Belgian style pale ale) is fantastic! More Belgian than Pale Ale which for my palate is a good thing.
Jason ChalifourApril 11, 2015Diverse bottle selection, but try the house brewed lagers. Especially the Helles & Doppelbock.
Wendy DarlingJanuary 16, 2014The pits. I've lived Downtown right in neighborhood longer than they've been open and have given ML so many chances and it always sucks. Food, service terrible. Beer is acceptable.
Kallie McConkieNovember 16, 2012Get the porkchop. And try the Mac Abbey. Both delicious. Awesome atmosphere too!
Max Lagers is a Top Notch Brewpub, casual fine dining restaurant!!! Enjoy it all here. Even check out the craft beer list and house infused cocktails!!!
john batesOctober 1, 2013Food is good and tasty, get extra breadcrumbs on the mac & cheese. Be prepared for a long lunch hour as nothing seems to be quick there.
- Ashley CarterAugust 17, 2012I had the Southern Fried Chicken and my husband had the pork chops. We were both rendered speechless.
Matt StrippelhoffApril 12, 2011Wow! Pork chop. Get the pork chop. Take every bite with greens and mashed potatoes for the full flavor. Unreal.
