Union Station Brewery Providence

I'm a semi-regular here, and really enjoy it.

1) Beer. They generally have 6-8 beers on tap at all times, and it seems like every time I come in, they have brewed a new batch/flavor of beer. Right now I've been enjoying the blueberry beer. I suggest the beer sampler, then go for a glass.

2) Food. Never had an issue with the food here, in fact, I love it. They use the spent-grains from the brewing process in their pizza crust (very original and delicious). I can understand why people might think their menu is small, but I think that's a trend many restaurants have been embracing lately. They still have everything from steak, chicken, burgers, to salads, paninis, and soup.

3) Environment/Service. This restaurant is in the lower level of an old train station. Vaulted ceiling, cement floor, wood beams: you get the brewery feel here. Service has always been on point, knowledgeable, and friendly.

Lastly, a lot of people compare this place to Trinity. I love local beer, so I've been to Trinity several times. I have to say that I enjoy Unions beer much better, as well as their atmosphere. Try them both out, I'm sure you'll come back to Union.

Beer was blah.  Not flavorful.  They were closing early and did not want to seat anyone.  Now they were closing at 9pm and it was 8:20.  Really?
I was told they were not seating anyone else and that last call had already been made.  We only wanted drinks so I asked for the manager to come off to discuss it with me.
We did get seated but I could tell they were not happy about it.
I had hoped,  like many reviewers, for better beer.  I was was disappointed.

Stopped by for a drink before a dinner at Capitol Grille.  Table for 3 at 5:30.  No wait, nice ambiance, low noise level and quite a selection of beers (not many beer afficianados in our party).  Orders a few appetizers as well.   The place to go for yer A-Z local beer selections.
