Brewster's Pub

This time is one of those where I wish Yelp had half stars. Brewster's Pub is a strong 3.5 stars, a solid place for a lunch option around the Cary/Apex area. Relatively new in the Lake Pine area (behind La Cocina), it has taken the space of the old Courtney's that was there. My experiences have been for lunch, so I have not had the evening experience yet to compare to.

Going in, it's very wide open with lots of space. Minimalist but clean nice seating with tables and then stools around the horseshoe shaped bar. Lots of sports related wall decor and about 7 TVs scatttered about the place, most around the bar. There are 6 dart boards over on the far wall from where you enter. Definitely pub feel. The staff have always been very helpful, positive/upbeat beginning when you walk in and take a seat, and that is the big plus here.

Food wise, they have the standard pub/bar type food available. The burgers are pretty decent. They have a good cup o' mac n cheese when you are in the mood. The turkey reuben is not bad either, I've had that a couple of times. Bonus in that they offer waffle fries as well as homemade fried chips. Gotta like some waffle fries. Another point: they have a "lunch rewards" program where you get a card punched each lunch visit and after the 7th visit, the card says it can be redeemed for a free lunch.

There has been somewhat of a wait to get lunch out to me, particularly my last time stands out where I had to get it done and go to get back on time to work. For lunch, I think the "order out" time needs to be a bit more on the ball. There have been hiccups such as the credit card machine going belly up, etc. and I know we are at the mercy of technology (believe me) but it's pretty hard to get done and get back when you deal with those types of things. I will say the wait staff was incredibly nice and accommodating during these times, and as I have said before this item is their big plus. My server made it the best she could while dealing with such hiccups, thumbs up to her.

Bottom line: Definitely 3.5 stars here. Solid lunch food type options in a pub like atmosphere. Wait staff positive and upbeat, great. A few hiccups here and there but still on my list as a regular lunch option in the Cary/Apex area.

Staff was SO nice and helpful. The food was really good and I loved the trivia! We'll definitely be back here a lot!

Great local bar with good bar food.  We've been several times for lunch and a few times for dinner and haven't been disappointed at all.  The service is good, but each time we've gone we've eaten at the bar.

The have a nice selection of beers on tap...from local brews to some of the national brands.
