Came here while visiting from our of town. Used google maps and it's hard to find as it's nestled in between the college apartments. It does have a Lu garage parking area and the building is fairly new. Nice patio located on the side with plenty of tables. Inside was clean. You order at the bar and then go find you a table to sit at. They do have a C small menu to order from and it's per typical bar food. I'm assuming most of its frozen An bed cooked in oven, microwave it fryer. I ordered one of their pizzas the margarite pizza. It's 10" thin crust and it's def frozen and they add whatever toppings you want or pizza you order and bake it. It wasn't good. Lacked flavor, spice and fresh ingredients. K tomatoes came from a jar and the basil was freeze dried. The cheese was mozzerella shredded. The only thing good was it was served nice and hot. I didn't finish it cause it was horrible. W I I food order I B went out to my car and saw the cook in the parking lot smoking a joint. It reeked of pot. Soo I figured my god wouldn't be fantastic. I wouldn't order food from them again. However, I ordered their Mexicali beer and it was delish. A light beer with a malty aftertone. Sort of reminded me of drinking a Mickeys when I was young.
Overall great place to hang with friends for the beer. Wouldn't order food ever again. Support local to.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Terry B.Buffalo, NY632032Sep 25, 2023
Stumbled upon this place while walking the campus prior to the football game. Wonderful joint. Great beers. I heartily recommend the Church milk stout. Food looked good. Friendly staff . I could have stayed there the balance of the day.

Good selection of beer and liquor. The food is delicious. I was with a group and we had the pretzel, salad with house dressing, and sandwiches. It was all delicious. Ambiance is lively. Bathrooms are clean. Fun place to go.

Just okay.
This is in the heart of Notre Dame but if you aren't a student that lives in the area it's pretty difficult to get to as parking is pretty much non-existent in the area. I ran inside to ask someone if they knew where we could park since we were from out of town- and the bartender told me to park in the residential lots and hope for the best. We ended up doing that and were fine, but something to consider if you don't want to take that risk.
We tried 4 different beers. 1 was good, 1 was okay, the other 2 weren't good at all. Also we were hoping to get food but they close their kitchen much earlier than the bar closes. They do have a outdoor patio that is dog friendly.
Overall, definitely more of a college bar than a brewery!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ben C.Lexington, KY75849Jan 18, 2023
Accused someone in my party of damaging part of the bathroom after our party had spent over $70 each on beverages. Rude service and poor handling of the situation.

This brewery was a little bit hard to fine because the parking lot is basically in an apartment complex but the beer was good. The people were friendly the service was good.

Danny Boy has really good vibes for a casual drink. The options on tap are all really good and their menu of appetizers and pizza provides decent choices for food. Sometimes it can be a bit crowded, and the space is not really optimized for a crowd. When it's at a normal capacity, however, Danny Boy is a good time.

Whoever reviewed this place saying there weren't a lot of college kids obviously hasn't been here lately. Hoped to have a few beers and get some food tonight but the place was mobbed with students for trivia so I had to go elsewhere.

My buddy and I stopped by last night while awaiting the start of the UNC/Notre Dame basketball game. The owner and staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, I appreciated it immensely as I was rooting for the Tar Heels. This place had the best chicken wings I've eaten in my life. They were crispy, juicy, and the wing sauce was spot-on. Based on the wings, fries, and chips I wish I had the time to sample more of their delicious fare. The ambiance was very nice and it was extremely clean, two things that are important to me. I will repeat if ever in South Bend again. Thanks for the hospitality Ken!
