Kim OswellOctober 15, 2017Hidden gem! Happy hour is amazing and even happens on Sat and Sun. Get the wings, 9 of them for $7. Draft beer menu is huge and the bottle shop is stocked with unique choices. Lots of TVs.
Jason BMay 28, 2018The Brü & Cru is excellent! You may want to share it, though. Brü Burger was excellent, as well! ONE server and ONE hostess for the whole place, though?? Steve(the server) did a great job alone.
Is by far our favorite place in the area, great wine selection, delicious food (try the steak tips, the flat bread and the Brü and Crü, but above and beyond, ask for Kat to be your waitress!!!- Jason BMay 29, 2018Brü & Cru is great, but you may be better off sharing it. The Brü Burger is excellent. They are terribly short-staffed. ONE hostess, and ONE server, with ONE bartender? Service is a bit slow.
- Kiann SuessFebruary 8, 2013The Brü Burger is fantastic, the Turkey Melt amazing! The beers are crisp (try the orange wheat) and the Brü and Crü (pretzel bread) a nice bar food. A little pricey and slow service but nice people.
Tremendous food and beer selection. Great unique cocktails as well. Service is fast and friendly. Best Farm to Market operation in all the OC. Since it is right off the freeway tot totally convenient!
Diver scallops, Bru cake and it's dog friendly in the patio area. Happy Hour is always happening too.
Excellent Sunday Brunch now. Custom burritos, chicken waffles, French toast , anything you can think of. And great prices. And great service.
Travis BaronAugust 3, 2015Incredible food and beer! Don't miss the Bru S'more dessert. Amazing! Done on the outdoor patio in the summer.
Have to recommend the marguerite flatbread. Very simple but tasty. And they have basil gimlet. My latest fav cocktail.- Excellent beer selection. Great service. Community tables in bar area. Excellent wings, cheese plate.
- Service is very very slow at times. Happy hour bar food is great and the beer selection is amazing. However, your server, although nice, usually disappears for long periods of time.
Annmarie HillApril 7, 2013Large open space. Patio seating. Communal seating and traditional style in the bar area. Love the decor!
It's only a few weeks old, but it shows great promise. They were out of a few things, but everything we had was fantastic! We'll definitely be back!
Joe DavanzoApril 26, 2014Food is good but quite expensive. The buffalo wings arent regular, they call them tulips because they strip have the meat off the wings so that you hold the bare bone and eat the "Flower" of meat
Lagunitas is the bomb! You will enjoy it! Especially when you make new friends ;)
MattJuly 3, 2015Happy hour: Sliders & Wings. Lunch: pesto chicken sandwich or French Dip Dinner: NY Strip w twice baked potato fondue
Tonya HernandezJuly 27, 2013Mussels and short ribs to die for. Draft beer selection is worth the drive.
Carol HinkMarch 10, 2013Certain Saturday's have live music - great fun! Call ahead to confirm & make reservations ;)
Cincinnati Lunchbox - hefeweizen, orange juice, amaretto. Delicious.
Duane NicholsonSeptember 24, 2013Get the bread pudding. The texture was perfect and the right amount of sweetness.- Petra FettersMarch 19, 2014BRU and Cru appetizer is the best !! Esp w cheese sauce. Great flatbreads
KC MurdockNovember 30, 2011Irish Red Beer is excellent. Everything at our table was delicious. Stay for dessert.
Shannon Stater SchofieldDecember 8, 2011Pulled pork sandwich was EXCELLENT! Good wine selection. Great charcuterie plate!
Food is good. Vespa martini is amazing. Bloody Mary's are horrible.
- Cheese plates are very nice. Need to add Nickel & nickel cab by the glass to the wine.
Ashley is awesome. Been trying to steal her away to another restaurant for a year or better
Michael GFebruary 12, 2012Impressive beer list. So so food. Nothing note worthy. Next time may sit in the bar and have beer and apps, unless spending $22 on game hen.
Yummy cheese. Yummy cured meats. Yummy Cornish Hens! Enjoy!!
Shell FigFebruary 22, 2014There were chicken bones in our chicken Cesar salad, but the server rectified the mistake immediately. Good service, nice ambiance, average food.- wi-fi network: BRU-wifi for guests wi-fi password: 9493055757 - via 4sqwifi.com
