Brewery Creek Brewpub Restaurant

Service was great. Nice ambiance. However the food was not so great. Two of us got the «Kentucky Bourbon Chicken». Overcooked and hidden underneath a mysterious dark sauce. Not as described. The «Salmon in Caper Sauce» was only decent. Great little place with a nice warm interior. Just step up the food quality please.

We missed the opening hours of the much raved ramen place in town so we were in search of the next best thing and Unilocal let us here.
We did a flight of American Wheat, Pale Ale, London Porter, and Shandy. The Shandy was my favorite, it was light and without the headache inducing sweetness of the commercialized shandies. The American Wheat was the second best.
For lunch we ordered the Chicken Red Pepper Pesto Sandwich special ($ 9.95) with fries and the California Burger ($ 9.95) with fries. For almost $ 10, we got a 5 oz chicken breast and unremarkable beef pattie. The pesto was delicious and the sandwich was harmoniously appetizing with a great blend of ingredients… if only we had more meat than the bun.
You can taste the freshness prepared into each dish, but I could only see returning if the portions matched the price point.

Service is awesome, even when they are packed. The food is mediocre but you could do a whole lot worse. A lot of the stuff is local so that is a plus if you give a shit about that sort of thing

The owner was so impolite I can not believe it. If I could give them a zero star rating, I would. Do not go here if you are in mineral point. Go somewhere else where you will actually get good service.

Delicious food and beers, prompt service! The Shandy was refreshing and light. As a vegetarian, I was pleasantly surprised to find so many options. Settled on the vegetarian walnut burger and fries. The fries were so crisp – I just wish that you got a larger portion of them! Had the homemade bread pudding (with a generous dallop of whipped cream) for dessert, which was flavorful.
Take note that this place isn’t open on Sunday or Monday, but it’s worth a trip any other day to this quaint town just to eat here!

For a tiny town, this place had some class. The restaurant is housed in a converted 1854 stone warehouse. The building is now both an inn and a pub/​restaurant. The interior is quite intimate but full of historical details. They make it their mission to do as much as they can in house and also to use local purveyors for various ingredients.
The lunch menu was fun — filled with a nice variety of choices many with creative twists on burgers, chicken, seafood and veggie sandwiches,. Surprisingly, they offered a very decent selection of vegetarian options. Of course Brewery Creek offered some Wisconsin specials as well like a cheese platter, jalapeño cheese curds with raspberry sauce, sweet corn soufflé and pickled herring.
Our order included 3 sandwiches: grilled sockeye salmon, crispy cod, and a BLT. The first two came on a beautiful petite brioche bun sprinkled with sesame seeds. Our fourth diner ordered the soup of the day a creamy, cheesy potato and leek preparation. Three of us opted for their special sweet corn soufflé and I chose the Belgian fries. Everyone was pleased with their meals. I sneaked a taste of the soufflé and it really was a dish that celebrated corn. It was moist, sweet, fluffy, and rich with bits of crunchy fresh corn. The taste of summer all rolled into one ramekin dish.
The belgian fries were very good. Often restaurants advertise these and they fall short time and time again. These were definitely handled and executed correctly. The only disappointment came with my BLT. The sour bread was barely toasted and pale, and there was such a shortage of ingredients between the two slices that the flavor profile was flat. For $ 8.50 I would expect a BLT in a restaurant to be loaded with fresh tomato, lettuce and bacon. They were even stingy on the aioli. Glad I was able to sample other dishes or I would have left hungry. I took half the sandwich back to the Inn we were staying at but never ate it. Don’t know why I thought a cold «bread» sandwich would be any better than a warm one.

We had a great experience here. Our server was attentive & friendly and the food was delicious!
We started with the jalapeño white cheddar cheese curds with raspberry sauce. They really packed some heat, which I loved, and the sweetness of the raspberry was a good complement (though it is really sweet!)
We both ordered steaks (coffee rubbed for me and Kentucky bourbon for him) with hand-​cut fries and starter salads. We were really pleased with the preparation and flavor of everything. Our salads tasted so fresh! A good portion of mixed greens for a side salad. I was surprised that my husband’s fries were swimming in au jus, but he liked the flavor so he didn’t mind. It’s great to have, but maybe in a little side cup?
Taking away one star because we were a little disappointed with the brewery’s porter and root beer we ordered. The root beer just wasn’t cold enough (I understand that they served it without ice so as not to get watered down) and the porter was ok, but not memorable. Otherwise, we were really impressed with what they are doing at this establishment!

One of the absolute highlights of our trip to the House on the Rock area. I am a vegetarian and was amazed at all of the delicious options. My boyfriend is not a vegetarian and he also enjoyed his lunch very much. The beer was really good too. The service was friendly and welcoming at the atmosphere was warm and comfortable. I wish we lived closer because I would go there all the time !

Atmosphere was great. Waitress was helpful and knowledgeable with food and wine choices.
Would go back again.
Had their spaghettini and it was so clean zesty and lite.
Dessert was the strawberry rhubarb crisp so tasty but their red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting just melted in your mouth.

They did everything right! The S.U. and I were hiking at nearby Yellowstone Lake SP and swung into MP for lunch. It’s located down at the bottom of Commerce St. in an old stone building. The brewmaster, I was told, has been brewing there for a long, long time and his London Porter was better than I first expected. They make all their stuff from scratch and since MP has a Cornish mining history, pasties (meat/​carrot/​turnip-​filled pastry-​pie) are on the menu. The S.U. had one with a corn soufflé on the side. I had a grilled pacific sockeye fillet with a walnut pesto and Belgian fries. Very nice all around. Also, a decent wine selection that doesn’t rip you off.
Great spot!

I am only giving Brewery Creek 3 – 5 stars because unfortunately we did not stay to eat there.
While walking in the space was great our server was wonderful, really all that you can ask for. We were traveling as a family and did not realized that everything that we had just ordered as appetizers were fried in peanut oil. My husband and I could eat the items but our son could not.
The only item for children on the menu was a child sized pasta — for our three year old there needed to be more variety.
We would have loved to stay, our server even asked if we had an EpiPen with us. We answered no, she then assured us that there would be no cross contamination but we could not sit there and chance it being so far away from home.

Excellent service, excellent food! The veggie burgers are delicious! Make sure and try the jalapeño cheese curds with the raspberry sauce to dip

We come to the Platteville area every year to visit family. After a high school basketball game in Mineral Point that ended at 7:30 pm we were hungry. We called & they accommodated 20 of us including children.
The raspberry sauce to dip the jalapeño cheese curds is a perfect pairing. I had the Kentucky Bourbon Steak with the flavorful Bourbon & shallot sauce. Matched well with their Kristal Weiss wheat beer.
The menu includes many other steaks, burgers, pasta dishes, chicken, salmon & vegetarian dishes. Definitely will be back.

Beautiful little place in Mineral Point! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the Brewery Creek Brewpub Restaurant. The jalapeño cheese curds w/​raspberry sauce were an outstanding starter. I also had the Greek Chicken Sandwich with the handmade fries, both were better than average. The beers were solid, I believe the Amber was on tap when we stopped, I honestly cannot remember what the second pint was. Both were enjoyable, but the line up at the time (last fall) was somewhat middle of the road. I would love to try their Biere de Garde and Grand Cru when I drop by again, which I will. Worth a side trip to see the vintage wood bar, cool location.

This place came recommended to us and the minute we walked in I was impressed. Beautiful old building, small and quaint. The service was friendly and quick and the food was excellent. We had the special which was a buttermilk fried chicken sandwich and a burger. Both were excellent. Try the Belgian fries with malt vinegar. You won’t be sorry. Excellent overall experience!

I’m not from Mineral Point — just like to stop through occasionally. Brewery Creek was recommended to me as an amazing place to stop. The person who recommended it enjoyed their time so much that they bought a shirt there. I guess my expectations were a little high because of that. You don’t buy t-​shirts just anywhere.
In all fairness — this is a nice spot for Mineral Point. Its an interesting building with some character. The beer is fine. It won’t knock your socks off or even be very memorable, but it won’t offend you either. The menu was actually quite thoughtful — with locally sourced foods and some sophisticated options if you’re looking for something other than just a burger. I had a handmade walnut burger with carmelized onions and aioli; it was quite good and had a nice texture. The prices for everything seemed average and fair.
I gave this place a 3 for a few reasons (keep in mind, if this was in Milwaukee or any larger metropolitan area, it would get a 2.) The issues that I saw could easily (read: should be easily) remedied. If they had any competition, I bet I wouldn’t have noticed the following problems:
1. There was no music playing which made for an uncomfortable and not-​very-​inviting lunch time atmosphere
2. The bartender/​waitress was brusk. She was quite busy and working both the bar/​restaurant by herself; however, her job is to be NOT brusk. Smile. Say hello. Make eye contact. Etc. I hate the feeling that we were bothering her. I understand human nature though and maybe she was having a bad day. She might be the greatest.
3. There was a lack of consistency in décor. The old bar is beautiful. Sitting on top of the bar were two dirty looking lava lamps (that weren’t even on.) I wanted to feel like I was in an old-​timey saloon, not a dirty night club in a small town. Other details were missed as well — like the poor coordination of the tables and chairs. I don’t expect things to match — too much matching is tacky too — but there has to be a theme in the style or it looks like it was thrown together with whatever was available. Again — I wanted to feel like I was in an old, possibly historic place but some of the furniture indicated that I was having lunch at my Aunt Sally’s — sitting on her 1990s kitchen table set from Shopko. Details matter. Details are THE ONLY THING that matters.
If you ever find yourself in the small Wisconsin town of Mineral Point, you should stop by Brewery Creek. Decide for yourself.

If you want to know how the food is, read the other reviews.
We ducked in here for a beer while day tripping to Mineral Point. We dined here two years ago and I didn’t remember much about the food or beer.
Having just hit the Red Rooster a little while ago, food was out.
We ordered a couple of ales, they were ok but nothing special.

This small town does not have lot of eating and drinking options. This seemed to be a nice place so I went in. I liked the irish pub kinda ambiance. Seemed like everyone inside the bar already knew each other! I was the only person drinking at the bar. No TV, quiet bartenders — I got bored pretty quick.
Being in Wisconsin, I was expecting some really good cheese in burgers, but it tasted just like regular ordinary cheese. I enjoyed there local beers though. I tried three of them and they were reasonably good.
Although nothing exceptional about this place, I will definitely come back here if I visit mineral point again.

There aren’t many places to eat later on a Wednesday night in this little town, sadly. But the lights were on here and it was warm and cozy when we stepped inside. I must say, it did feel a bit like walking in to a stranger’s living room and all eyes turned to stare at the out of towners as we obviously clashed with the locals.
We stayed and took a table despite the discomfort! Service was slow. Slow! The food was fine. My dining partner and I each had the walleye sandwich and side salads, not wanting to eat heavily later in the evening. We also split the amazing-​sounding corn appetizer. It was good, but not amazing. Tasted just like my annual corn casserole from the Betty Crocker cook book made for Thanksgiving. ;-)
I wouldn’t go back. The bartender needs to find something to occupy his time when there are no patrons with whom to chat or serve because standing behind the bar and staring at the diners is creepy. Sorry, dude.
Prices seem about right for the food they serve. And the food is tasty, though I must admit, I did expect the sandwich to be more the size of those we get back here around the twin cities. It was on the small size.
The atmosphere of the old building is very cool, though, with the exception of the staring tender of the bar and the slow wait staff.

This is probably the best place to eat in town because there are so few options, although I did not go the MP across the street. The food is fine, it’s certainly nothing worth writing home about. They supposedly make their own beers but I tried the Belgian Wit and found it incredibly bland.
I ordered the steak which was a nice rib-​eye, but it evoked memories of Sizzler’s from my childhood, especially with the dollop of butter on top that is piped out of a bag. We also had the corn soufflé which was nice, but not amazing. The woman who might be the owner, but was the hostess for the night was a bit curt with me. At no point was I welcomed to the restaurant, instead she blocked the door so I couldn’t go in and demanded if I had a reservation. Our service was fine.
Again, nothing to write home about but there are just so few options in this town.
