The Butcher Shop Beer Garden & Grill

 

Vibe: This place is a combination beer garden, bar, and butcher shop. The outdoor beer garden is located outside in the front and is enclosed by lots of plants forming walls and a roof, making it feel like you are inside a tropical jungle. There's a rectangular bar located in the middle of the place that is both inside and outside. The inside portion of the building consists of some tables and a butcher counter located along the back wall. I stopped by on a Thursday afternoon and the bar and all of the inside tables were packed.

Quality: Beers were served in pint glasses at the proper temperatures.

Service: I sat at the bar and there was only bartender working, so it took some time to order and get served.

Selection: The place had about 20 beers on-tap, including beers from 81Bay, Biscayne Bay, Collective Arts, Concrete Beach, Copperpoint, Dogfish Head, J. Wakefield, M.I.A., Sun King, Tampa, Tank, Terrapin, and Veza Sur.

When you enter from the street there is an over abundance of plants as you get into the bar area. Kind of an open air garden space with a large roof. The bar area is comfortable and has about 20+ drafts. A good number of local breweries are represented. Plenty of tables for dining. Didn't have any food, just stopped in for a pint. Service was decent but it was pretty busy. A decent spot in Wynwood section for local local beers, but some of the breweries are just a few blocks away.
