Inventors Brewpub

Great atmosphere. Great location. Good beer local selection & good food. The location enough is worth a 2nd stop in. My fiancé & I were visiting on a Sunday doing some hiking in the area & wanted to stop into Port Washington to walk around & grab lunch.Got the Edison IPA & it was very good. I liked it for being a good IPA that wasn't too strong.We ended up getting two different tacos: the Pork Tacos & Mahi Mahi Tacos. Both were 3 large tacos with good side of tortilla chips.Mahi Mahi was very good portion for $16 & same with the shredded pork for $13. We ended up sharing between the two of us so each of us could have at least 1 of the others. I will say that their fries looked very good being little spinwheel styles

I really liked this place! It's a super cool place on Lake Michigan! Ambiance AService A Food A

This new location for Inventors is a MAJOR upgrade. The building is huge and I'm guessing has event space in addition to the restaurant. We were seated overlooking the marina which was so nice. Considering they're still in a "soft opening" phase everything went really well. The place was very busy for a Thursday night, almost completely full. The servers were working hard! I suspect ours was new because she wasn't very familiar with the beers (brought an ale when we ordered a stout) but she was very friendly and quickly fix the small issues. One of our meals was missed and took quite awhile to come out, but again considering its new and they were so busy we were not upset. Everyone had good things to say on the quality of food (burgers, fries, chicken sandwich, salads, and beer cheese soup), and the beers all went over well too. We will definitely be back.

Very busy on A Saturday night. Beer flight consisted of 4 four ounce samples. The 4 I tried were all well made. Cheese curds were tasty, however they could have been crispier. I had the peanut burger. It was cooked properly, though the peanut butter could have been more flavorful. The side salad was very nice and a good serving size.

The Inventors Brewpub is the run of the mill open concept/sports bar serving beer with a niche. The space is all open so sitting at some tables means you're nearly on top of other customers. We stopped in on a Saturday and the place was pretty busy. It wasn't clear where the entrance was and the door we originally came to said to use "north or south entrance" as though that gives a clear path. The staff were running around like crazy and seemed stressed. I had the Smash IPA which was nice and crisp, very light ipa. I ordered the nachos and I'm sad to say they were very disappointing. There was a sweetness to the entire dish there really shouldn't be in nachos, I think they may use nutmeg or cinnamon in their beer cheese sauce which just didn't taste good to me. There's tons of TVs and some outdoor seating. It was fine but not a place I'll be making a regular stop.

This place has its act together. We went on a Saturday evening during the dinner rush. Expected to wait a long time for a table and then wait for food service. But that didn't happen. We waited at the bar and before we finished our first drink, we got seated at a table. Service was super prompt, and very polite. Food was excellent and the atmosphere was great too. It was a warmer fall day, the garage door windows were open and the view was beautiful - a dock with lots of boats. IHighly recommend.

This was not good. I had mahi mahi tacos. They were so overcooked and had zero flavor, They were so bad. The server told me everyone loves them so I ordered them. My husband had the peanut butter burger, not too bad. French onion soup was decent. Our server was so busy with a big table that we barely saw her. Never got refills. Good beer menu. The place is really nice looking. They have a good opportunity here to have a great restaurant but that food needs to be improved. We will try somewhere else next time we are in town.

Enjoyed our visit to Inventors Brewpub after a hike at Kohler-Andrae. Word on the street from Port Washington is that Inventors will be moving into better digs soon. Currently it's sharing space or helping popularize the VFW Hall, and doing that very well, actually, but I could see them wanting a larger main bar area. I love craft beer and sharing on Untappd. The Hazy IPA was just slightly off, but I would really like to try more of their beer (we had a long drive ahead of us after a day of hiking.)Pulled Pork sandwich and my burger with pineapple were both tasty! I'll definitely make a point to return.

How do some places just get EVERYTHING right? I'm not sure, but I believe it must be the attention to details...because, as we all know, God ( or the devil) is in those details!From the hand breaded onion rings, perch filet ( a REALLY nice piece) to the honey glazed baby carrots to the house made chili, to the AMAZING waiter (Tyler) we had....EVERYTHING in this restaurant is PERFECTION! All I can hope is that we return. This building is wonderfully inventive - everything is treated as if it's ART! Because it ALL IS ART!We LOVE this place. Thanks SO much for being here!!

Came with an open mind mainly to try the "sticky Asian ribs" and Ceaser salad. First impression- dirty table-top. Not a good sign. Ribs were awful! Over cooked and dry. Salad was bagged romaine soaked and wilted in dressing. Staff was very nice but not professionals. You can tell a lot about a restaurant from their salads. Not going back.
