The best craft beer place in the neighborhood. 16 rotating taps plus a large number of chilled cans and bottles. All cans/bottles are to stay or go. The backyard is amazing!
Great ambience. Wonderful spot to hang out. Delicious beer and grilled cheese.
Wonderful backyard, great beer selection and lovely atmosphere.
Excellent beer and great service. Good music great outdoor
Love it! Great range of beer and cider as well as non alcoholic beers! Pretzels are so good and the grilled cheese is huge! Bartender was super nice and helpful! Beautiful outdoor area as well as indoors! Cant wait to go back!
Great beers on tap and delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. On the day I went there was only one guy running the whole bar and he was clearly stressed out and pretty grumpy. Id be grumpy too if I was managing such a big crowd by myself!
My wife and I stop by this venue on a Friday! Great ambience! The bartender was extremely helpful and nice! The beer was amazing along with my sandwich! Well definitely be going back! Great hospitality!! 5☆☆☆☆☆
Great beers. Indoor and outdoor seating. Fun activities. Good food. What more could you need?
Just happened to wander in here after visiting the botanic gardens and am really glad I did. Chill atmosphere in the afternoon and good selection of beer. Grilled cheeses are DELICIOUS and huge! Definitely worth more than the $8 I paid. If I thought I could have finished another one, I’d have ordered a second.
Absolutely the BEST bar if you want to try a variety of beers. Food here is delicious as well, but the highlight for me was the friendly bartenders helping me decide what beers matched my tastes. Do NOT skip this spot
Great beer selection and grilled cheese is sooo good. Staff and ambiance 5/5. Would I come back 100% yesss
Beer heaven. Friendly, helpful and easy going bartenders. Good seating arrangements in front, inside (great natural ventilation), and on a luscious patch of grass in the backyard. Cheese, charcuterie and baguette to pair with your beer selection.
Mixed feeling about this place. At times the beers and staff are spot on. Friendly atmosphere and solid beer selection. Other times it felt like I was doing them a favor by coming to the bar, giving me short answers about beer questions and the beer tasted like it was old.
Good bar with eclectic beers. Nice outdoor garden area too. Def has a new parents moved to Brooklyn for the baby and this is our spot to meet our still single friends vibe.
Awesome beer selection, great back yard, and delicious good (have had pretzel, bratwurst, and grilled cheese ... all good).
Great beer selection, amazing back garden patio. The cheese pretzel was also quite tasty.
A great place to hang out in the neighbourhood. Their craft beer selection is extensive. I like it more during warm weather where they open their front terrace
A favorite neighborhood bar! Amazing selection of libations (draft + cans) plus a great spot to source some tasty meats, cheese and olives. I love Covenhoven.
Had a blast. Trivia night, great selection of local beers, and the bartender made sure we got what we liked! Will return next visit to Brooklyn.
Such a great bar with a cool vibe and interesting wall art. I recommend their APA and to sit in their wonderful backyard. The bartenders know what theyre talking about when giving suggestions and the Brooklyn botanical gardens are near by too.
Great beer and Vibes. Ask Jason about his number and try to date him a lot. Hes hot af
Atmosphere was ok and huge beer selection. However all that was ruined because I was there with my service animal. The manager cornered me and interrogated me about my disability. Disgusting and won’t be returning if that’s how you treat customers with needs.
Love this bar! Huge selection of beer and an awesome backyard. Friendly bartenders (sometimes). The sandwiches are off the wall.
This is my favorite spot after hitting the Botanic Gardens. Their beer selection is always unique and frequently rotates. The sandwiches are incredible and the vibe is relaxed and friendly.
Chill spot to hang out and play some games. It can get loud and there isnt much outdoor space, which is fun and welcome if thats what youre going for. Nice bartenders, good beers on tap.
Massive....extensive beer options. Ever revolving, seasonal beers and cider on tap, and the wall opposite the register is covered in refrigerators filled with seemingly countless bottles and cans of all sorts of new-to-me brands of beer.As a beer neophyte, I rely on the expertise of the staff to steer me in the right direction. I described what I was in the mood for and they picked exactly what I was looking for on their first recommended pick (they graciously supply sample-pours).Cute bar-like menu, and inexpensive chips and snacks for sale as well. I also noticed that one of the fridges had charcuterie and fromage for sale.Overall very chill spot, cool staff, and a charming backyard garden seating area. Would come back for sure.
I really love this place, good selection of beer, great meal and cozy atmosphere! ♥️
This is one of my favorite places in my neighborhood. Bill, Tom and the Grilled Cheese Chef offer a friendly, unpretentious place to relax. Im not a beer drinker, but they always have great cider options available! The backyard is small but comfortable. I really appreciate a place that brings a sense of normalcy in the bat$h!t zombie apocalypse known as 2020.
Pretty cool bar with a really nice outdoor space. Beers on tap and in the fridge with a wide selection of craft offerings. If youre in the area I would definitely suggest this spot.
Awesome beer variety and a bunch of table games
Good beer selection with a nice and friendly staff. Great atmosphere for meeting people and a nice backyard. The place is often full which makes service slow (though the noise level is never inordinate, which is nice), so dont go if youre looking for a good place for a large group. Also, no real vegan options on the menu, which is sad. The fresh baked half baguettes are nice, though, and worth getting.
Went here on a date and the selection alone is enough to have me coming back but that along with the DIY charcuterie makes this an amazing date spot or just a place to reflect on good beer with friends. Ample seating in front inside and a great backyard
Outstanding beer selection both on tap and in the fridge. Don’t forget to try one of their signature grilled cheeses while you’re there.
Come here if you are looking for a legitimate beer establishment. The number of beer options may be overwhelming for most but the staff is EXTREMELY knowledgeable, friendly and down to earth.Great beer, the hot pretzels are delicious AND board games. What more do you need?
Very nice selection of beers both in bottles and on tap.Out door seating , no heat lamps my beer kept me warm. I will go back
Best beer bar in Crown Heights/Bedstuy, maybe even Brooklyn. Great rotating beer selection on tap and tons of beer to-go as well as affordable charcuterie (small cuts starting at like $2)
Perfect place! Large selection of beer ...
This is a great addition to the neighborhood. The tap list is broad and varies daily, and the refrigerated beer selection is on point. The atmosphere of the place doesnt seem to have really gelled yet, but this is a good location to enjoy a relatively quiet, tasty beer with a friend. Some of the draft beers are probably a buck overpriced, which leads me to often turn to a bottle from the fridge. Of course, theres a 2 dollar fee...Still, very glad to have this option nearby.
Low key bar with great beer selection, including some from local microbreweries like Threes. Bartenders are friendly and willing to impart theyre knowledge and let you try samples. Great garden out back for the summer and a little patio out front too.
This is a great beer bar in crown heights. They have an ever-changing menu and a high bottle program. But bottles to go and save big on the price of having them there. The outside is amazing in the summer and the location is great. You really cant go wrong with this place.
One of the best beer bars in Brooklyn. Its cozy inside, but they have a nice backyard with a patio, planters and grass with tables. There is a small front porch with a couple of benches as well and people bring their dogs and have a beer out front.Besides the excellent rotating 16 taps, featuring the best local and U.S. breweries, they have an extensive slection of bottles and cans to stay or to go. All the beer is stored cold and flies out of the coolers so you can be sure its fresh. The selection is well curated.On top of that the staff and customers are friendly and cool. Its a nice neighborhood spot even if you were not that into beer! You can always get cider here, I know they have some wine but it focuses on beer.The grilled cheese sandwiches are pretty good too. Your guests will be impressed if you bring them here it is a five star beer place and a five star neighborhood bar.
Excellent beer bar with a cozy backyard that makes any warm evening better. They have 15+ taps at any one time and those rotate through very regularly for more variety. Also have a fridge that has way too many beers to count in cans and bottles in addition to some fun board games. 5/5
Good cider place serving soft pretzels. Their beer is popular and so is their grilled cheese- you wont be disappointed!
Cute spot with nice outdoor areas. Great selection of beers. Good for small groups. Every can has a cheaper to-go price as well as a more expensive for here price. They also have apparently stunning grilled cheese sandwiches but I didnt get to try one - though they smelled amazing.
Love this place! Covenhoven has an ever rotating tap selection that is a delight to the most ardent beer nerd. Local beers, hard to get beers and ones that are completely different can be found along with an amazing bottle selection. The back yard is lovely in warm weather and we love sitting out front with our dog when weather permits. A true neighborhood gem!
Hip place to go with friends while also chill enough to go solo to read a book and enjoy a good beer. They offer plenty of indoor seating and several cute tables outside in the back patio. Small menu offering yummy bites and in addition to their epic beer selection, they have Gf beer and non-alcoholic drinks to choose from. Can’t go wrong!
Great beer selection here, both for to-go cans or on tap. Backyard, porch, and railroad interior make this bar a comfortable, but busy neighborhood spot. Food is also available, try the beet/arugula salad, grilled cheese, or brats on pretzel bun!
Great spot for a quick beer or four from their amazing selection. the backyard is peaceful and well decorated. pick up some cans or fill a growler. lots of good experiences at Covenhoven!
This is one of the most truly “chill” places around. Same few bartenders there every time I go, who are super cool guys, and little game corner in the back. Somehow they manage to make it simultaneously laid back and very high-quality in there. Endless interesting canned beers and ciders to pick from, a veritable list of rotating drafts, and little cheese and self-serve bread to munch with them. The cherries on top are an exquisite outdoor garden area in the back and the limited but incredible list of bites: the best grilled cheese I’ve had in my life, for example.
I have been going here for years. It has gotten much more popular, but for good reason! The brews on tap are always tasty and a good price especially considering how expensive drinking local has become in Brooklyn.
I’ve been there a few times and it has always been a nice atmosphere. Never too empty or too crowded. The staff was helpful and the drink selection (especially beer) is very good and the prices are in line with other similar bars. I’ve been told by the people I’ve gone there with that the grilled cheese is phenomenal. Plus, I left my headphones there and they found them and held them for me to pick up.
Best craft beer option in Crown Heights. Super friendly staff and wide selection of brews. Two prices on each can in the cooler- one for if you drink house, another if you leave with it. Very transparent. Bread and cheese for purchase in the back.
Favorite bar in Crown Heights. Tons of choices in cans & bottles in their freezers and they always have fresh, new, delicious craft beers on tap. Bartenders know their stuff and are happy to guide you to a beer youll like. Quality meat & cheese selection. And if you dont wanna DIY, the grilled cheeses are sure bet. They have a backyard, spacious indoor seating with good lighting, and I frequently see people out front with their dogs--what more do you want to entice you to stop in and see for yourself?
Best Craft Beer bar in NYC. When it comes down to it, Covenhoven is my absolute favorite. I come here from Astoria because they have everything I look for in a great beer bar... Awesome draught list! Amazing selection of local, regional and far away beers to stay or go! Beautiful backyard! Dogs allowed in front patio area! Some board games! Good music! And most importantly...a top notch staff! They don’t have liquor...this is a beer bar. But if beer is your thing...you won’t be disappointed. Oh, and their grilled cheeses...👌🏾
Have only taken to go but very nice selection
Good IPA selection, maybe more ciders and German lagers would be good. Cheddar truffle Pretzel was awesome
Friendly staff, happy to give you samples of the various beers on tap so you can find exactly what youre looking for. A nice outdoor patio in the back seats probably 20-30 people. Beers & ciders are sold in two different sizes; usually the bigger size is 25% or so bigger for only a dollar or two extra.
Absolutely love this place, amazing can selection and draft selection. The tap take overs they have are really fun. The bartenders are really cool and friendly and up for conversations about beer stuff :)
Didnt try the food, but the beer selection was excellent. There was only one beer I recognized on the tap list. Staff and other patrons were very friendly and knowledgeable. The garden in the back was beautiful. Heard this is the only place you can go in this area for the best craft taps.
Amazing grilled cheese, sours, and Tuesday night trivia
This is THE spot to enjoy craft beer in the Crown Heights area. It’s a haven of rotating taps from locally sourced breweries and plenty of domestic and imported cans and bottles to go on the fridge. The bar staff is helpful and knowledgeable, and lets you try anything before ordering. Best kept secrets: the board games stashed by the bathroom and the roasted red pepper goat cheese grilled cheese sandwich.
Ideal craft beer bar environment. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff, can talk about beer all night! Great patio, quiet low key ambiance. Board games available to use. Bottle shop in addition to drafts available.
Amazing selection of bottles and draft craft beers. As a west coaster they have almanac sour beers! As well as amazing local New York/east coast beers. Oh, and a grilled cheese station to feed your hungry bellies. Amazing staff and knowledgeable. Go, go, go!
Great beer selection in a very nicely designed space. Good spot for a date. Board games you can play while you drink your fancy beer. Didnt eat but the grill smelled amazing.
You are in Brooklyn, you want great beer, if you arent here, good luck.The selection is fantastic, both on draft and in cans/ bottles. Great helpful staff, friendly patrons, a great pub.
Whatever untranslatable Scandinavian word meaning roughly homey/comfortable you want to use -- it applies here.
Great yard and I love the grocery fridge aesthetic for the beer but it gets intensely loud when its crowded.
Great atmosphere that gets better as you enjoy their wide beer selection. Tasty pretzels and other solid bar food. Staff was knowledgable, friendly and made some great recommendations.
Super chill spot with super knowledgeable bar tenders and super delicious beers. Seriously though, the selection here is thoughtful and local and not in the least bit pretentious. Will recommend to anyone I know who is heading this way.
Medium sized craft beer bar. Usually excellent draft list, lots of local brews. Plenty of refrigerated bottles and cans to drink in or take away. Nice backyard.
A varied selection of beers and even ciders on tap. The fact you can pick and choose your own charcuterie board (cheeses and cured meats) along with a crusty baguette is just wonderful.
Really nice selection of beers and friendly knowledgeable staff to help you pick out something to suit your mood. More on the expensive side but you get a free loaf of bread if you hang around until close which is a bonus!
A spectacular beer selection and an incredibly knowledgeable staff. If you know what you like, youll be able to find it there. If you dont, theyll help you. Plus they have special samplers now and then that are worth the trip for beer lovers.
Great spot for an afternoon beer in their backyard. Gets pretty crowded later in the day. Great selection of tap/cans/bottles and also has ciders.🍻
Craft beer selection is awesome, lots of choices and the bartenders really know their stuff! the cheddar pretzel is so good!you can also play games (available in the shelf at theback). its a very nice place with a backyark! come with a group like 5 max id say
Been here a couple of times for solid craft beer selections and great cheese. I love sitting at the bar, wafting in the smell of grilled cheese. One of the best craft beer bars in NYC. It is similar to Astoria Bier and Cheese with larger selection of craft beers.
I love this place. Incredibly cool vibe. Fantastic beer selection. Super helpful bartenders. Also, build your own charcuterie boards? Amazing. Grab a bread and a stick of meat and sit in the back with a tasty brew. It doesnt get any better than that.
Great spot with N/A beers
Its a wee bit overpriced but you really cant go wrong with the huge beer selection. There is also cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches. They have a bunch of board games as well and the spot is great for groups.
This place is a dream! Dozens of beers on draft, featuring many regional breweries. And, amazingly, several fridges of singles that can be taken to-go or imbibed in house for a small capping fee. Small bar bites served - grilled cheeses, pretzels, etc.
Not sure where to start. Fantastic beer selection, super friendly staff, I can always find seating, they have battle ship, and I have never ran into my ex there. One of my favorite places to hang out in the area.
Beer selection and quality of service were both incredible. Bartender was friendly and knowledgeable and able to help with picking beers based on taste profile.
Was in to celebrate the 4th with my sister and some friends. The beer, hospitality, and vibe were all excellent. Providing hotdogs for the patrons to celebrate the holiday was a very nice touch. The music during the afternoon was excellent! It set a vibrant, happy tone to celebrate the holiday.
Amazing selection of beers on tap and bottled, knowledgeable bartenders, nice atmosphere. They even have games for you to play. Garden in the back during good weather.
**Update- The owners reached out to me to get more feedback about my negative experience. They have since hired a female bartender (the all male staff was the subject of my rude review). Glad they took my bad experience to heart and made effort to mitigateThe staff here is insanely rude. I get it, youre into beer, but so am I other wise I wouldnt be in a beer bar.That doesnt give you the right to completely ignore me, then when you finally decide to take someones order after talking to your friends, be snarky to me. The selection is fine, but I DO NOT like the vibe here at all. There are plenty of places with great beer that dont belittle their customers and arent extremely rude. GO ELSEWHERE
Best beer bar in the area!
Great selection and atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable bar tender, clean bathrooms.
Wonderfully varied draught selection that can open you up to some of the more esoteric craft traditions, constantly rotating. If none of the draughts strike your fancy feel free to choose from the stupidly large can/bottle selection. Always a great atmosphere for conversation or some light yahtzee. Small but solid high-end bar food selection: I suggest the ham and grueyere grilled cheese with cornichon.
One of the best beer bars in the area, if not the best. Cosy atmosphere and incredible selection on tap as well as in the fridge - the cheeses are not to be missed either!
Great beer selection, with 16 taps and an endless fridge with cans and bottles. And the friendliest staff behind the bar!
Nice little bar. Theres a grass patio in the backyard where you can have a smoke. Big beer selection and some limited options for food, but not a place to get a full on dinner.
Excellent bottle and tap selection and a nice outdoor space with actual grass. You can get bottles to stay or to go, and they charge reasonable corkage fees.
Great variety of beers, love the staff
Great little spot in crown heights! They have a beautiful outdoor space in the back (with grass!) And plenty of intimate seating inside. They are very family friendly and have some great (if limited) food options.
Nice garden and interesting beer selection, though service is a bit unpleasant, and flights would be nice.Replies: Thanks for following up! (Understood about no flights, but worth calling out.)
Love it. Great variety of beers and an entire wall of coolers for beers to take home. Small selection of charcuterie for eat in or take out. Awesome staff.❤️
Love the beer selection. I had a pretzel here once on a whim, I wont be doing that again. They have an excellent little outdoor lawn in the back for chilling out in the warmer weather.
The selection of beers and ciders here is mind-blowing. the place itself has something so cozy and pleasant about it, that I just want to keep coming back. grab a brewski and go enjoy the backyard area!
Tasty beers but pretty overpriced compared to other bars close by. The guys behind the counter were funny and helpful, would give them 5 stars however something was lacking in the ambience of the place.
The best back yard in Brooklyn with the best tap-list to go with it. If youre looking for an unusual beer and a friendly vibe, Covenhoven is sure to deliver.
Lovely neighborhood spot with an ample selection and a friendly, knowledgeable staff. Even for beer dummies like me! Nice backyard. Sometimes crowded, with babies of late.
Great beer selection, reasonable prices and a very cool beer hall atmosphere/decor! I especially appreciated the self-serve water station they have.
Great beer selection, popular among locals and a must go to place in the neighborhood if you want to have a relaxing weekend with friends or best choice for a good date.
Amicable staff that will let you try all the amazing selection on tap before you pick one. Love their dog friendly area, yummy food, great music & super cute backyard.
Great selection of beers on tap as well as in cans. You can only drink the alchemist heady topper and focal banger in house. Kcbc, Greenpoint, and many others regularly stocked.
Great bottle and draft selection. Warm, comfortable atmosphere. Deserves 5-stars EXCEPT they still struggle with filling growlers.
Our go-to spot for trivia on Tuesday nights, this spot has amazing beers to stay or to take home, and probably the best grilled cheese Ive ever had in my whole life.
Great beer selection!
Awesome beer selection!!
I went Covenhoven for the first time last night with some friends. Great selection of beer available, even better ambiance. I will definitely be returning to try more beer and explore the outdoor space!
Awesome local beer selection. Bottles, cans & draft. I told the beertender I was from out of town, and he hooked me up with some great stuff.
Excellent beer selection on draft and in bottles you can take away. Chill atmosphere with secluded beer garden.
Lovely back yard but I wish it were open more. Not the place to get miller or bud. If youre into beer (hello brooklyn) youll be happy here.
Beer nerds wet dream. And the staff dont make you feel inferior. Also, wood-burning stove in the winter. Self-service meats/cheeses is also cool.
Largest selection of beer in the and a cool, dark vibe. Beers are reasonably priced and dont forget to check out the board games in the back and the courtyard
Lovely place for an afterwork drink. The backyard looked really nice.
Easily the best selection of beer in the neighborhood. You can also buy half a baguette along with some meats and cheeses for a couple bucks and make your own nosh...
Hello Covenhoven, I had really nice experience with you.Very friendly atmosphere.They allow you to enter with your dog which is really cool.They have good cocktails and food so they will take good care of you.Easygoing bartender, so if you don`t know what to drink just tell him to freestyle with your drink, i am sure that he will come with great drink.
Absolutely the greatest bar in NYC. Great bottles, fair prices, not too crowded, great ambience.
Favorite bar in the neighborhood. Great beer, helpful bartenders and the right vibe for a relaxed evening.
Smells like burnt oil, bar tender not friendly at all, loud music. Overrated
Great selection of drafts, bottles and cans for consumption on site or purchase to-go. Lovely back patio.
I visited covenhoven to meet a biz associate for the first time. It was a warm and pleasant reception from the staff. I liked the selection they had to offer and the space was charming.
Love the atmosphere and service. Bathrooms are clean.
Great space with and excellent selection of taps and bottles. Weather-permitting, dont overlook the garden out back.
Great local and rare beers (both on draft and bottles) and GAMES!! Love the vibe. Really fun place.
Absolutely the best beer bar in Brooklyn. Cozy, good food, and great beer you wont find anywhere else.
Great beer selection. Nice backyard space. Awesome grilled cheese sandwiches.
Unbeatable beer selection, nice outdoor seating area in front (great for summer nights!). Great pretzels, too!
Good beer large selection of beers, good staff food was also good, nice courtyard

Love it here! Incredible selection of craft bevs. Warm friendly low key neighborhood vibe
Great grilled cheese sandwiches and beer selection!
Nice airy bar with a great beer selection and a back patio. Staff was very friendly. Interesting mural on the walls.
Nice airy bar with a great beer selection and a back patio. Staff was very friendly. Interesting mural on the walls.
A great beer bar with a stellar tap list and a wonderful amount of cans and bottles you can take with you or enjoy on premises.
Board games! Cider! Grilled cheese! Everything about the reviews for this place is pretty straightforward.Except the name. How the hell do you pronounce Covenhoven?!
Best beer selection in the area. Awesome little spot. One of our favs
This is possibly the best beer bar in NY. The beer list constantly changes and is great, and the bartenders are incredible, Tom and Ian are the best!
Great drinks, food and ambience.
Beer, grilled cheese, dog friendly. Done.
Great selection of beer - including sours
Great beer selection, amazing backyard, delicious pretzels
Cool atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, fantastic beer, but can get a bit crowded. Maybe buy the former Chavela space next door and knockout a wall guys!

Nice cute space and nice outside. Very trendy hipster crowd. Great beer options.
Great beer selection, amazing service. Reasonably priced drinks and food.

Great beer selection with a great garden out back! Amazing.
Great spot to hangout. People that works there are very nice.

Phenomenal in house beer selection. Fun friendly crowd!
Terrific beer hall with great people, outstanding service, and a fun crowd.
I love this place. End of story.
Decent grilled sandwiches, good beer selection, friendly staff, good atmosphere.
The beer selection is extensive but seating can be an issue at night and in winter when the backyard isnt open.
Always the best beers, and I LOVE the grilled cheese sandwiches!
Great beer selection. Nice patio out back.
Calm, informal environment. Good bottle selection as well as taps and food.
Always a nice vibe there. And a good beer selection.
Amazing beer selection and loved the cheese!
Not amazing but okay. Service was very slow and unremarkable but the bar is new, so the washrooms were clean and spacious.
Cosy, quiet, perfect for catching up with friends. A hidden gem is the lawn out back. Would definitely return.
Too loud. Really disturbs the atmosphere, which would otherwise be quite pleasant. One could go deaf in a place like that.
Great beer selection and they do growlers
Killer beer selection, you wont find Blue moon here just a ton of beers that are different than anything you have ever had.
Lots of great beer and a nice backyard.
These guys in there are awesome. Also, they are great people to talk to.
Great beer selection, backyard is wonderful.
Very crowded inside (didn’t feel like 6 feet), meh service.
Fun place for a pint or two and excellent grilled cheeses.
Good beers and the best grilled cheese of any of the bklyn bars
Dark and low slung. Chill craft beer bar where dreams can come true and hearts can be crushed.

Review №1
2022-05-01Do not go here on the weekends; save yourself the time and go elsewhere. I wish I could give this place five stars because its beer selections are delicious, numerous, and impressive; however, the service is TERRIBLE. I waited nearly 2 hours for a simple grilled cheese sandwich, which never came. A biergarten is only as good as its accompanying dishes in my opinion, so this was a grave strike against this place. The backyard area is lovely and the beer selection is extensive. So, if you DO plan on going to Covenhoven, resolve to only drink beer and do not order any food. Also, one of the bartenders was pointedly creepy towards the women in my group, which is unacceptable.

2022-04-10Always a good time, cozy and a great back yard. It’s got dozens and dozens of can/bottle beer options and a rotating tap list that turns over daily with great craft beer.
Review №3
2022-05-28Grilled cheese was 🔥. I got the one with ham and Gruyère. Nice beer selection. I love a place with taps and fridges. The backyard is incredible. 👍🏻
Review №4
2021-05-03First time was great. Wish they had more lager and less IPA on tap and maybe some more dark stuff for the lady, but the can/bottle selection is impressive. The grilled cheeses stole the show, will come back just for these. The seating is limited and the staff was not very accommodating or clear about whats expected from the patrons in terms of seating...they seemed overwhelmed on the second visit although it wasnt too crowded. Will need to learn the right time to go and when to avoid.

2022-06-22The grilled cheeses hit the spot (especially the havarti + fig + arugula) & theres always a couple phenomenal dark beers on tap.

2020-11-16Highly recommend come for delicious heady hand picked beers from awesome breweries and stay for the original grilled cheese (add bacon) Will be back next time I visit my brother. Slainté!
