Beerhive Pub

I struggled with whether to give this establishment 2 or 3 stars until I saw the phrase Yelp associated with 2 stars was "Meh. I've experienced better." It's not to say the Beerhive is a bad place, and it obviously receives more positive feedback than negative, but to me it was very "Meh" and I definitely have experienced better.

On the positive side it's a nice atmosphere, and they do have a large selection of beer. Upstairs is the more "business savvy" side, there are cocktail tables, a few dining tables, and a long bar with plenty of seats. Downstairs there are several pool tables and the vibe down there is definitely that it's the portion of Beerhive in which you can let your metaphorical hair down.

As I love to support the locals, I ordered an Epic Capt'n Compton's Pale Ale, along with a Crispy Chicken Sandwich and some fries which were the epitome of pub food - meaning, it was decent but probably more appealing  because I had hiked down Solitude earlier that day and I was so famished I think I would have been satisfied eating a cardboard box covered in ranch dressing.

I poured over the beer list, thirsty but our server was like a flash that would occasionally pass through my field of vision but never came back to check on us. Sure, I could have gone to the bar and ordered a beer but that kind of defeats the purpose of choosing a table. I was served one beer in a two hour span. I had a pocket full of money I would have loved to burned on a few more frothy brews but eventually my friends and I got so frustrated with the complete lack of acknowledgment and moved on.

Long story short: beer good, service bad.

Good selection.  All around fun place.  Only had chips and salsa and beer while linking up with a friend, so I can't comment on the food.

I have definitely experienced better bars. However, it has a nice atmosphere. The beer selection is weird, there are not a lot of pilsners or lighter beers on the menu. The food is not so good.  I've had lasagna that tasted like it came out of a Stouffer's box and looked like soup. I've also had burnt fries from here.  Seating is also limited.
