Again enjoy coming here:Wings were really good. The wings were a special half sesame have cranberry sauce. It was maybe heavy on mustard.The nachos had a weird sauce but okay. They didn't have salsa so not traditional.The changed the tacos to an app but still let us order it as an entree. The bomb burger in a dough ball was good, big. It didn't take too long to cook. The bruschetta on the salmon was a nice change of pace to a fish dish. It felt light and not too fishy. The banh mi was fun, semi traditional tasting. The highlight was their bourbon barrel stout! BA High Rye.

Host, servers and drinks were good...but the food, not so much. What I think happened is that the chef is no longer with the company or had off today. My family and I ordered what we usually order when we go there...fish fry was over cooked and potato pancakes were bland, no flavor whatsoever. The soup of the day was clam chowder and was not rich and creamy like normal, it was watery lacking flavor and a bit too much salt. Kiddos had pasta and had one bite and didn't like it...I mean how do you mess up pasta. Not sure what happened to this place but I'm not liking it enough to come back. Very sad.

They have a nice outdoor patio and the food is standard American fare. My buffalo cauliflower was something I've had other places, pretty basic standard probably frozen-drop-in-the-fryer type stuff, but it's tasty! And a nice alternative to meat where you won't even realize missing it! Our server regularly checked up on us and all was good in the world!

We really enjoyed our visit to Explorium Brewpub. They have a convenient location at the mall entrance with plenty of parking, indoor, and outdoor seating. They have a huge selection of tasty beers plus wine, spirits, and specialty drinks. We visited on Friday so opted to have fish. Beer battered fish and baked cod were excellent. We beat the rush by showing up at 2pm and received superior service from Nicholas. Restaurant is tastefully decorated and piped in pleasant music at a reasonable volume. Food menu has a wide selection so there's something for everyone.

Solid for food, beer, and looks like they're making lots of seltzers, as well. You can be comfortable bringing your mom and dad here, the kids, everyone will find something they'll like on the menu! My most recent visit I went with a flatbread that resembled a Margherita style pizza. I've been here many times for beer or carried out - Lost in the Sauce is their specialty IPA, get it! Recently I carried out two of their Wild Ales, one was rose & plum and they were both incredibly well done sours!This place does get busy, but they have a patio during the temperate months. This is truly one of the best things to happen to Southridge Mall.

A great spot for a good meal.We arrived right at noon for lunch and the place quickly filled up around us so our server was running his butt off but kept our sodas full and kindly pointed out the basket of napkins already on our table when he was flagged over in request of more napkins because the jalapeno burger was delicious but that beer cheese WAS messy.I love perogies and all things fried but I'm still trying to decide if I liked these deep fried perogies as much as the typical...(Steamed?) Variety but they WERE good.And I got the grilled cheese (called something else I don't remember) less the tomato but added ham. Perfectly toasted melty deliciousness.

I came out tonight to hang out with the family and grab some beer; it has been far too long since I've had some excellent concoctions from The Explorium Brewpub.On tap for tonight's samplings:* BA Chocolate Chili Stout* Milwaukee County Stout - Oat Whiskey 2023* BA Chocolate OrangeThe chili stout gets you in the throat with just the right amount of heat, but oh so smooth.The oat Whiskey was delicious: smooth, silkyWe had some excellent meals tonight. Salmon, Bahn Mi, THE BEAST. Everyone had to have the clam chowder as well because it's the best anywhere. I don't know how it's got a right to be as good as it is, but man, it is delicious.Just the right amount of noise in here tonight. I like that there was a great buzz but you didn't have to shout. Plenty of stories to be told, things to catch up on. Getting together with family at the Explorium Brewpub was the right choice.

Service was good and they have a nice beer and cocktail list! Wings were well made with a variety of sauces to choose from. They weren't the best I've ever had, but not bad at all! We also got the salmon bruschetta, which was tasty! The rice had no flavor, but not the most important part of the meal. It has a sports bar feel with an option to sit outside too when it's nice.

Another 3 star experience. Bar area outside was full so we sat at a table on the patio and only ordered Bloody Mary's. Their Bloody Mary was solid and the patio was nice. Server was sweet but drinks took a very long time to come out.
