I come here about twice a month where I would take the 40+ mile drive from NYC, have some wings, tater tots, a chipotle chicken sandwich and a few beers then drive back to NYC. After a long hiatus I decided to take the drive up and this weekend may be the last if the service does not improve. The football game was on and there was a moderate crowd, even with more than 5 people behind the bar things were too slow. I came in and sat down at the bar in front of the register. It took 5 minutes for someone to acknowledge I was there and take my order for a beer. Then a few minutes later someone else asked me if I wanted food, I said yes and put in for an order of wings and tots. 20 minutes goes by, my beer is half done and now room temperature and I still have no food. At the 25 minute mark my tots came out and I start eating and sipping the beer, 5 minutes later the wings comes out. After eating 2 wings my beer is done and now I have an empty beer glass and still allot of food to eat. Would you believe that even with my proximity to the register and multiple bartenders coming to the register to close out tabs and put in orders not one of them ask me if I wanted another beer even though the empty glass was staring them in their face? No one came to check if the food was ok, or if everything was good. You know, the common courtesy bartenders have when they bring you something. The guy next to me keep signaling to the bartenders with his waving arms and slightly shouting voice every time he wanted a beer, even to the point where a guy that was sitting at a table came over and asked to close out his tab, and when he was asked where at the bar he was sitting his response was "I am sitting at a table but service is too slow to wait for someone to bring me the check, this is faster". I paid my tab, and left. No tip for poor service.

Awful awful awful service!! I watched my food sit on the kitchen warmers for a half hour with a full kitchen staff. There were at least three people in the kitchen working with very few customers. All of the kitchen staff seemed to be out smoking... one spit on the ground in front of us (gross!!) and another kitchen worker was cursing outside. Not one kitchen worker could tell the bar staff to bring out our food? And not one of the bar staff could ask why it was sitting there so long? Bartenders were not attentive at all!!.. nor were they nice at all. The Colorado hot dog was AWESOME but the chicken sandwich that was supposed to be "smothered in bacon" as described by the menu had one knot of bacon and the chicken was like trying to take a bite out of the desert... so awful and dry!! I had to bathe it in hot sauce and ranch dressing to make it edible. Id give this place one more try only because of their hot dog and beer. But only once more. Get yer act together, WOB!!!!

They have tons of beer options and the place is big. It never gets too crowded, outside they have some games, giant jenga, connect four, corn hole etc. The bartenders dont seem to know much about the beers though, which is a shame considering all the beers they have. They have half and half beers, like black and tan etc, the bar tender looked at the taps quickly and said I dont think we have that, I had to explain what it was for her to make it.

I was excited about this place coming to Milford until I experienced it in person in Stamford. Yeah there is a lot of beer but its all average to below average beers that any place has. The food offering is really poor, and the service is really poor. The bartender had the enthusiasm on par with a tree sloth that had just found out its family had been murdered.

Good beers, nice area, but man, I think it was really chilly in there. I dont care for cold places. People need to turn their heat on. Leaving my coat on is not right at a place where you are paying top dollar for a beer. In the summer it is not an issue. I like when there is live music. This place has potential.

This place has great beer selection but it feels dead inside every time Ive been, not just talking popularity. This place has no atmosphere likely due to being a large chain establishment. Id recommend elsewhere for craft beer in town. Great pricing on certain beers though.

Pretentious over-priced beer bar with amazing selection. I like this place and hate it at the same time. I would recommend it for anyone who needs a really nice beer, but would not recommend it for someone looking for a night out.

This is one of the best places in HP. Very chill and non-pretentious compared to the other new joints like Paloma and Fortina. Staff always friendly. Good beers. Also this place is dog friendly which is awesome. Big thumbs up!

Amazing selection of beers. Ive been here several times and the last time they had G-bot and Dogs and Boats on tap. The waitress was super attentive and the food was good too! Take the trolley so you dont have to drive.

I saw a great reggae band at this place last night. I also enjoyed the beer selection. I go for Cottrell Yankee Ale. The food service is slow but the comically sized pretzel was delicious. Check it out.

Worst service I have had at a world of beer. Nothing like being ignored for an hour. Pompous bartenders? Go ahead and try it. But if you like good beer and good service, dont go here.

Go to spot after work. Great food and plenty of different drinks. Try the golden shrimp, shrimp tacos, or black and blue flat bread. Happy hour applies to most food and drinks.

Nice sized place, live music, but for a place called the World of Beer, I expected more rare and high quality picks on tap and less Angry Orchard and Bud Light standards.

Vast selection of beer on tap and available by bottle. Spacious seating and good place for any group size. They also serve food and small plates.

Beer is great and they have a lot of it but the food was god awful. Stick to beer and a pretzel if you need to eat but go elsewhere for food.

Excellent concept, the taplist is fantastic with the best local offerings, but the food needs some work.
