Hogan’s Hideaway

Came here with my wife for lunch. Ambiance was very nice, although we chose to sit outside. A small selection of craft beers, but better than the usual macro swill. Food is good and cheap. This isn’t really a beer place, but it’s nice to visit once in a while.

I enjoy going here. The food is good, and the service is not totally pathetic like most Rochester restaurants. Parking can be a pain, but at least they offer it. As for the beer, there is nothing really out of the ordinary, but they go beyond the usual Bud/Miller/Coors. The Fitzgerald on tap was a nice surprise. Some thought is given to pairing tap offerings with the food.

A good weekend restaurant with hippie decor and helpful staff. Features a better wine selection than beer. For foods, try the pita nachos or any bisque they offer. For beer, walk the couple blocks down to Magnolia’s, which sells growlers of some good craft ales. #13 on 12102009 DG.

Nice little hippie place on Park Ave. Food is good. Patio is there for nice weather. Pale Ale and Park Ave Ale are brewed by Custom Brewcrafters for the place and both of them are actually really good. Some other macros on tap and in bottles.

Good food and a decent selection of beer. House beers come from Custom Brewcrafters. Lots of wines, lots of beers. Good hippie employees.

Not a beer place per se, but a good, eclectic little restaurant with a few good beers. Custom Brewcrafter’s makes the three Hogan’s beers, and they are serviceable. There are guest taps (on a recent visit something from Southern Tier and Brookly Pilsner had just run out). A good number of wines, including NY wines. Friendly place!
