Lafayette Brewing Co

I haven't been to LBC in several years, so I was excited to see specials listed on a board out front. Today, I was after a bowl of soup. It was early and a table full of local law enforcement was having lunch. Always a good sign when the locals eat there. They are housed in an old building. There is patio seating, bar area seating an another large dining room with a large beer mural. We got a table by the window. Matthew was the only server working when we arrived. He was friendly and made recommendations despite being busy. He said the soups are homemade and a guy comes in a makes them a couple times a week. The soup of the day was a Turkey Alfredo. The soup was creamy, hearty and thick. The seasoning was perfect, not too much salt. I would have traded some of the noodles for a few more vegetables. But it was really good none the less. The Tap Room Chicken Sandwich,bbq pulled chicken topped with melted cheese and deep fried onion wedges, stole the show. A generous portion of the chicken topped a fresh chewy pretzel roll. The onions were unique and delicious. Sandwiches come with fabulous house made chips. Soooo good, golden brown and not too salty. Yum. His sandwich was $2 off as a daily special. There's free street parking the building is accessible with no stairs. Kid friendly with kid menu. Adult friendly with bar. I'll be back to try the happy hour specials.

Why is this place rated so high and why the prices are so high. I don't get it. $19 for a bison burger, just the burger. Sides are extras. Was the burger even that good. No. There are not enough garlic aoli on my burger so it was kinda dry. Bacon was chewy and not crispy. Service is very slow even though the brewery is not full. The only good thing is the Mac and cheese which was $4.50 a cup. For the same prices I can get a burger at Gordon Ramsay.

Went for a holiday dinner with work colleagues, I ordered smoked salmon bagel sandwich with fries! I asked for customization as it had bacon in it and I don't eat bacon, so I asked for it to be removed, and the server was very nice about it! However, when my order came out, it still had bacon, I politely reminded the server (this was another woman this time) that I needed one without bacon, she gave a "look" I did not like at all, and then raised her eyebrows and took the plate away instead of saying sorry, and then 2 minutes later brought it back without bacon, I felt like she just removed the bacon from the sandwich instead of making a new dish for me, since it came out too quickly, I called her again and asked for a new one, she went back in and came out saying, "I gave you the wrong order earlier and this is the right one" and just left without even hearing my response. Now, I'm unsure whether that's the truth or she just flat out lied to my face, but I did not feel at peace and couldn't enjoy my dish at all. Also, I was actually one of the hosts for the party and only picked this place because my staff requested for it, Sorry I did not like the service at all.

We stopped by for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty empty. It made me nervous how empty it is, but it is the summer and class at Purdue isn't in session, so maybe that's why? Or maybe it is more of a dinner rather than lunch spot? Regardless, our service and food were so good! The Scotch eggs were AMAZING. So flavorful, piping hot, and yummy. We also had the pretzel, which was okay. Also, the potato munchers, which were really good. I had the fish and chips and WOW! That batter was phenomenal. It was crispy, perfect thickness, and flavorful. The fish wasn't "fishy" and was buttery. The fries with it had Cajun seasoning and were so good. My husband had the Mac and cheese with andouille sausage and he loved it. He said it was so different than other Mac and cheese and he truly enjoyed it. The restaurant is a little dark if you aren't sitting near a window, which is okay. We had great service and food.

Great experience here! Our waitress Emma was a sweetheart and served us very quickly. The starters looked so good we ordered 3 of them to share. Great portions and yummy flavor! We came in a Thursday evening and it was fairly lively but not crowded. Overall, would recommend!

I stopped in Lafayette Brewing Co. At about 5pm on a Friday afternoon. The restaurant was comfortably busy and I was able to easily find a seat at the bar. I was quickly served and ordered a pint and it was quickly brought to me. The bartender asked me if I wanted food and I did and he made a couple of recommendations. I chose the pizza bread and was not disappointed. The portion was large and very filling. I always enjoy coming here and will try to make it back for dinner more often.

Good beers, nice vibe with good bar service. Had a Tippecanoe Common Ale. Interesting combo of IPA and red ale.

Good local brewery to try, that's also kid friendly. Nice rustic style. My favorite is their pear cider. So delicious, and it's not too sweet.The kids food is a decent sized portion as well. My son smashed his personal pizza. I had the hero sub, which is also a good size. The fries are tasty, especially with the Cajun seasoning. The sub could've been a little more flavorful, but not bad. The employees are always kind and attentive as well. This is a nice place for a casual lunch or dinner.

Killing time before our flights out of Indy we were looking for spots on Main St. to check out. We were in town for a reunion and walking around at my hubby's old haunts. This place has apparently been here since 1993. I think the bartender said it was the first craft beer company in the area (or one of the first). We only drank a couple beers (each), no food. It is a huge place. The bar area is just beautiful. Lots of gargoyles too - forgot to ask if there was a reason, but they are cool. Loved their IPAs! Friendly service. Highly recommend. Street parking was ample and easy to find on the weekend afternoon.

The beer selection was majority ipa/stout/sour, I expected more variety. Personally an Amber/brown fan. We waited a LONG time for our waiter/food/drinks, basically everything and it was not worth it. My shrimp po boy was room temperature. Although it was seasoned well, the bread was just meh. The boys each had a burger. One was over cooked and one was undercooked. The manager apologized for the wait because of a party upstairs but did nothing to compensate for it. We also ordered spinach dip that never came. The outside is nice to people watch. The inside is dark, could use a brightening.
