Bad Dad Brewing

Stopped here while rolling through town. Nice little spot! Definitely has the traditional "industrial" brewery feel. Unfortunately I was driving so couldn't indulge in any of the beers but the pizza I ordered was delicious! I got the Supreme Detroit Style Pizza. I love a thick bread-y crust and rarely order supreme pizzas because of my hate for black olives. Thankfully this one didn't have any! Serving was definitely big enough for 2 people to share, or to have leftovers. The waitress was also very kind and helpful. Detroit style does take a bit longer to cook because of how thick the crust is, but she set that expectation upon handing us our menus. Worth the wait in my opinion!

Brewery #281This place understands me, it get's me, I'm partially convinced they tapped my brain or my metaverse and said "Let's make a place that caters to this guy, Da Gabe aka Mike Honcho"Bad Dad has taken dad jokes and made a brewery. Beers named 'Socks and Sandals, Pull My Finger, I'll Turn this Car Around' and many more. Their tin tacker is of a slightly obese dad in an undersized sleeveless shirt, headband and white New Balance sneakers riding a beer can. Perfection. Genius! While their humor got me in the door, their pizza and beer will get me to come back. I got my standard flight with I'll Turn This Car Around (Hazy IPA), Kiss the Cook (DIPA), Snooze Button (Imperial Stout) and a Tapestry of Obscenity (IPA). All were really great but The Snooze Button was my favorite of the bunch. We also got a couple of pizzas. A Detroit style called Motown with thick pepperoni, hot honey, and basil which was very tasty and a Margherita pizza that was solid. My only issue was they were out of stickers for my man cave wall but that's just all the reason to go back next time I visit my parents in Indiana.

Nice local brewing company. Good beer, good service, very accommodating. Was what you expect of dining at a craft brewery, but very nicely done.Food was great, service was great, would go back again to the home town of James Dean.

Definitely Destination DiningWhat a hidden in plain sight gem of a great place for amazing craft beer and out of this world pizza. Kam, our server, took our dining experience to a whole other level. I asked to taste all the beers but the IPAs and was brought a sip of each one, I decided on the "You're Grounded, Mister" Stout. Smooth, with a nice kick of coffee had me order this one twice. Now for the pizza...some of the very best pizza I have ever had. We ordered the "Motown" Detroit style pizza with the Mike's Hot Honey which sent this pizza into orbit and tasted out of the world. The other pizza we ordered was the New Yorker which was a thin crunchy crust pizza and as delicious yet totally different. Plan a trip up to Fairmount sooner than later, this place will not disappoint.

Pretty good beers and friendly staff. Not a lot of seating inside but there's good outdoor picnic tables. I only had beers but my friends Detroit style pizza looks pretty solid. I'll definitely get pizza next time and pair with a good beer. Definitely worth checking out!

Very cool vibe going on here. Of course I'm a dad with a dad bod. So....Had an "Yo Paulie" pizza. Very tasty; a small was enough that I could split it and eat half the next night. Beer was good and the marketing is on point. Service was quick even though there was a good size crowd. It's sort of tucked away, but not hard to find.

Pizza is always on point. I love the Mikes Honey on the pepperoni pizza. Best pizza around! Sundays 2 pies and a pitcher of beer $40.

Don't miss this tiny place in a tiny town. Big flavors, big personality, and great beer on tap! And all with local friendly service. The Detroit style pizza (we had the Motown) was so flavorful and the crispy cheese around the edges is the best! We also tried the Yo, Paulie, which is a white pie with soppressata salami, ricotta, mozzarella, Italian sausage, garlic, basil, and a drizzle of hot honey...yeah, amazing! We'll be back when in the area next time.

Motown Pizza: (5/5)Delicious pizza. Kiss the Cook: (5/5) Best beer I've tried in a long time. Would drink this any day. New Yorker add Veggies: (5/5)I'm not a big pizza person but I would add this to a Sunday night weekly pizza night. So so good. Customer service: (5/5)When they brought the pizzas out they asked us to check if the crusts were too done for our liking and if they were they would refire them for us. We wouldn't have even questioned if they were too done, they were perfect. They did reheat a little too done but still ate all the leftovers anyways. Easily could split one pizza, we had plenty of leftovers. Ambiance: (5/5) Will 1000% be back soon, with friends.

Just go! Get the Yo Paulie! It's the best. You won't regret it. I have been a customer for 2 years and never once had a bad experience.
