The Brinery

I didn't know what to expect when I walked in here. So it's order at the register then they bring your order to you like Shake Shack would. If you go when it's slammed you may not get a table so keep that in mind. It's pretty small inside with about 10 tables. I ordered a double smash chili crisp and side of the city fries. Now it took about 45 min for this to come out. When my food was brought to me the bearded gentleman informed me that they ran out of potatoes so he gave me city chips. Now I love this and hate this. Love it because awesome on him for giving me another option. Very nice on his behalf. Hate this because I want fries with my burger. It's a MUST. I do not like chips and felt like an asshole telling him this. He reimbursed me for it so also good on his behalfThe wait was pretty long for a double smash burger but it was a Saturday night at 7:00 and multiple parties of 4-6 in front of us so I totally get that. The burger itself was pretty fucking good and I typically am NOT a smash burgers fan. I love being able to get a Pittsburgh rare but you don't get that with smash burgers. This though didn't disappoint. A little salty but I love salt bombs so if you're not a salty person be cautious. Had a great grease to it (fingers dripping) and good spice. The spice to where it still has good flavor and doesn't take away with the heat.

Not a lot to say but this pork sandwich I got was so juicy it was gone in seconds Would recommend

Have eaten at the food truck many times and am a fan. Stopped in for brunch. You order at the counter and hope for a seat. Managed to get a seat as a couple of tables were leaving as we stood there. It took over 45 minutes to get our food. The couple behind us ended up asking for to go and the couple after them asked for a refund as they had to go. Had the Redneck Benedict that is a biscuit with Pork Belly, sausage gravy, with fried eggs. It was OK. The pork belly was tasty but the sausage in the gravy was very hard and overcooked. When we were leaving they were telling the people coming in it would be an hour to get their food, so most said they would come back another time.

Stopped for Saturday morning brunch. As you walk in you order, and sit and wait for food. It's clean and minimalist decorated. Staff is nice and helpful. The seating is ok but they have the little metal chairs and they are a bit uncomfortable. I opted for the breakfast egg rolls and they did not didisappoint. Very good. For their brunch they have love Katie distillery serving mimosas and bloody Mary's. It's a beautiful partnership and we will be back.

I enjoyed my visit to The Brinery one weeknight. I ordered the El Reno, which was topped with caramelized onions and their city sauce. The woman who took our orders explained to us the patties are very thin since they're smashed, so she suggested getting a double, which I did. I loved the pickle tots and could have eaten the entire basket myself! Their ranch is also pretty good! We also had the Panzanella which was really tasty, fresh, and refreshing. It was nice going on a weeknight because it wasn't too busy. There also seemed to be a few regulars who came in, which is always nice to see!

If you have a hankering for a burger, this is the spot. Absolutely insane sandwiches- the smash burgers were excellent and the cheesesteak was spot on. Shoestring fries aren't my favorite, but these were cooked and seasoned perfectly. We came on a Friday night, we were the only people there and the staff were so welcoming and accommodating. We were shocked this place was empty with food this good. Will absolutely be back!

Went to the Brinery last week with my friend and we had amazingly delicious food! We almost ordered every app because we just wanted to try it all! They are located in Sharpsburg, pretty close to Dancing Gnome actually, which is a slay because they are byob. We ordered the Nashville Hot, City Fries (half portion), Roasted Brussel sprouts, Pickle Tots, Pierogi, and The Unnamed Chicken Sandwich All of the food was so good! The Nashville Hot sandwich was actually hot, I loved it! All of the apps were 10/10 but my fav would have to be those City Fries. OH MY GODDDD I could've eaten like 10 baskets of these they were phenomenal. You absolutely have to order them when you come along with those pickle tots. I've never had anything like those before but they were goooood.

The brinery has been on my list for a LONG time now - and I finally got in. Never knew how much I could love a fried chicken thigh sandwich til now. Everything they make is great and even while fried - makes you feel good while eating it. I will absolutely be making this a normal spot for me to meet friends over some bomb food at. Thanks for being a 10/10 brinery!Service was great and very clean inside!

Popped in to Sharpsburg and The Brinery after an afternoon of errands. We were hungry and had heard great things about the sandwiches and burgers here. When we stopped in around 3pm there was one other group eating and then left shortly thereafter and we had the place to ourselves. There's probably 5-6 tables in the eat-in side of the business with big windows looking out onto the street. Overall the place was a little dingy feeling and not terribly clean, but if they're going for that greasy divey feeling they're nailing it. Good classic 80s tunes cranking while we waited and our food was ready in about 10-15 minutes. My wife got the 916 which is their standard smash burger with a side of fries. I wish the fries had come with a little more than just ketchup packets, but the fries were pretty good. Her smash burger was pretty good too. I got the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich which was piping hot and had a good balance of pickles and sauce. I was hoping for a little more kick of spicy heat than I got, but overall the chili oil flavor was right. Dropped a star for the dirty tables/chairs, but overall was happy with the meal and would come back to try other things. Not sure I'd do the Nashville Hot again though the fried chicken was good.

We decided to give The Brinery a try after reading about it in Yelp. Wow, was it ever worth the time and effort. First you are greeted by the most delightful lady who fully answers any questions you might have and then some. The food was as described and just as tasty as hoped.We will go back for sure. This should become a neighborhood gem if it hasn't already achieved that status after the year it has been here. Being from further out we can't say but it seemed to be drawing in people that seemed local. Go and enjoy.
