We had my daughter-in-law’s baby shower in the downstairs “LAB” and it was amazing. The atmosphere in this place is great! Everyone who worked with us was very accommodating. Buffalo’s Best Catering did an awesome job and were terrific to work with. It can be pricey when planning these events but we were very happy with the final product. Recommend!

It was SO good. I got the seared salmon with roasted veggies and rice. One of the best meals I’ve had from a restaurant in a very long time. We also had the apple pie barrel roll which came with vanilla bean ice cream; amazing. Will definitely be going back!

We had our wedding at the barrel factory last month & couldn’t be happier. Andi & her team took care of everything from decor to drink choices. Our guests loved the space & it was nothing short of perfect for our wedding reception. Everything looked beautiful in the event space & we were taken care of from start to finish. Would 100% recommend!

What a cool place. We had a tour that took us through all parts of the structure. The tour guide called it a fermentation destination. They have a distillery where they make gin vodka rum and I believe other spirits they also have a brewery in the beers were delicious they have someone who makes kombucha as well and they also have wineries that sell their goods there. In the summer you can even rent a kayak there and go to the river to paddle around. Upstairs they have an event space would be lovely for a corporate event or a wedding or something of that sort

What. An. Amazing. Night. This was our pick for our weekly date night, and we could not have been more impressed, or had a nicer time out. Both of us expected a rustic themed, enjoyable evening but neither of us expected to have one of the best meals we’ve had in ages. This was our first time here, and it certainly won’t be our last. The atmosphere is inviting and warm, and the charm of the industrial factory mixed with hidden side street gem hit you to your core. We dined here in February and we’re lucky enough to enjoy their “Valentines” menu which runs all February long. Probably the best deal you’ll see all year we got bread and butter, 2x drinks (cocktails, specialty cocktails, beer or wine), 2x soup or salad, 2x filet (or chicken, salmon, lasagna), and 2x dessert (chocolate cake, creme brûlée, apple egg rolls, or another chocolate dish) all for $75!! I couldn’t believe it, and we had to ask the server twice to make sure we were dreaming. Our food was first class start to finish. The salads were decorative, light and refreshing but still quite filling. The steaks were cooked exactly as ordered, and had a great grill char to them which paired perfect with the spice blend- don’t get me started on the demiglaze which I happily would have drown in. Dessert was sweet and tasty, and we ate every last crumb. Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, and we were even lucky enough to dine there on a night the restaurant was filming footage for their website so we got to see the behind the scenes drone flying around the dining room, and got to meet the owner(s) as well. Run, don’t walk here on your next date night, you won’t regret it.

This was THE PERFECT Easter brunch place and overall perfect place to chill eat and drink!!! Myself and my family had a great time. They had a variety of food including vegan and vegetarian friendly options. The place was honestly stunning inside with all the string lights and interior design. The vibe was really great! 10/10 recommend.

We had our wedding reception at the Barrel Factory and we couldn't have had a more amazing experience. Andi and her team took such good care of us throughout the entire process and our day was better than we could have imagined. At no point during the planning process did we feel overwhelmed or stressed out. Everything was thoughtfully handled down to the smallest details. Food and drinks were amazing, service was exceptional and the space was beautiful. They really take care of everything. We cannot recommend them enough.
