Cozier than the other two area DFH brew houses with a nice outdoor seating area. Knowledgable bartender. Great pizza.

First trip to the Gaitherburg location. Small bar area that was packed for a Friday. The service was good though. The bartender was jokingly a dick to the non beer drinkers which is always appropriate in this sort of establishment. Beer was good and food was good but it is very expensive. I wasn’t surprised but someone else may be. Worth a stop if you want some real beer.

Stopped in for lunch prior to a wedding. A large restaurant spice with dark wood accents throughout. Server we had was good if not particularly knowledgeable. There were a large number of Dogfish head beers available on tap and in bottles. Food was good but nothing to write home about. The prices were a bit steep IMO. A nice stop but nothing special.

Always has the full lineup of Dogfish beer available on draft, plus offers to Dogfish versions of black and tan’s - Chicory/90, and World Wide Stout/120(although that costs about $20). Food is solid, and for the area is a solid stop in. Not a destination unless you never can get Dogfish Head beers.

My first time at a satellite DFH location. Much more generic than Rehoboth, with a good variety, but no brewpub one-offs like the Delaware location does. Still, there’s not much else in this area, so it’s worth a stop.

If Dogfish makes it, they have it on-tap. They aren’t actually owned by Dogfish, just license the name. Regardless, the food is above average, and the beer--goes without saying is fantastic.

Some friends and I were in Rockville for other reasons and decided to stop at the Dogfish Head Alehouse on the way home. It was fairly crowded being about 9PM on a Saturday night. Wait for a table was 25 minutes, and they give you a buzzer if you choose to wait so you can wander. We chose to go in and stand at the bar and have at least one beer. Two stools at the bar opened in front of us in short order and we took them. Then shortly after the two stools next to us opened up so all of could have a seat. Bartender was very friendly. We intended to eat but were not famished so we decided to order 4 separate appetizers and just share. The appetizers were all quite large and tasty, and none of us left hungry. I give them high marks for selection; even though it’s only Dogfish Head beer (obviously) they do have a great selection of their line on tap and the others are available in bottles. And there are things on tap that you don’t see (or I havent seen) bottled like Olde Shool (a 15% barleywine) (later note: apparently they do bottle Olde School) and a Black & Tan. The menus suggest what beer will go best with each item on the menu, a nice touch. I intend to go back.

Nice place. Great selection of Dogfish Head beers on tap as well as one of the few places to get Alehouse 75. Good food and nice environment. Seems to be more of a family place than a drinking establishment. If you want to learn about the beers more in depth I would try sitting at the bar for sure.

Great place, only drawback is that I would love a few more choices... Maybe just more seasonals in lieu of all of the real eclectic specialty brews and do something about the acoustics... Can be too loud to talk. Excellent food... Never disappointed in many visits. Value is decent, probably good for the area. Dogfish beer is consistently good and they have alehouse 75 on tap typically which is a favorite. Service is always good as well. Well done.

Dogfish beers are good but but little pricey
