I really enjoy their Bollywood Blonde ale...but beware, they are shady. I have a Synek beer machine, which they (used to) fill the cartridges for. So, I laid down the hundred bucks for a Mug Club membership, to get the fill discount. Welp, the next time I came in, they all of a sudden announced they were not going to fill the cartridges anymore. What? And of course, no offer of a refund, or even an apology. Emails to ABC went unanswered. This is really dumb on their part - not just for the extremely poor service and business practices - but, each time I came in for a fill, Id walk out 10 minutes later after dropping over $100. Monthly. Thats a lot of money (with little service needed to get it) to throw away. Oh well, Ive taken my business to Hopcat, who has no issue taking my money (and not charging me a useless mug club membership to do so!)

Planned on coming here with my sister and cousin for the DIY fest. Checked the website advertising this event to see if patrons had to be 21 years of age to enter the craft fair. Nowhere on the advertisement did it state the Saturday Rule. We were turned away at the door because my 20 year old cousin had to be 21 or accompanied by a parent to enter, despite the fact that I am over 25. This is fine, as I understand rules are rules. Looking in there were multitudes of children and toddlers running around in the craft fair. However, the lady at the door was extremely rude for absolutely no reason. Turns out, patrons under 21 are allowed on Sunday for some odd and arbitrary rule, parent or no parent. But not Saturday! Disappointed by odd rules, and extremely rude staff. Will likely not be returning at a later date.

Ive had a few meals or appetizers that Ive liked. Unfortunately Ive only found one or two beers that I can drink. They dont have TVs and I dont know why. Lots of people like to watch sports on tv while they drink beer. Thats not a big secret. Are they trying to keep sports fans away? Make the place a safe haven for people who dont like sports? I just dont get the no TVs thing. I live a block away and I probably would have spent an extra $300 there this past summer if they had the baseball games on tv. The outdoor seating area is cool. They have musical acts there occasionally but Ive never seen them because I was always at Aubrees watching baseball.

An amazing place to grab a handcrafted beer! Corner Brewery is tucked away behind Depot Town with their combination brewery, bar, and restaurant. The food is light fare, but what they serve is excellent from the Hungarian Farm Cheese to their numerous varieties of sandwiches. The beer is amazing; Corner Brewery handcrafts numerous varieties of beers, from coffee stout to to a great hefeweizen. And the prices are reasonable, too. $8 for a liter, $5 for a half-liter, and half-off during their very generous happy hour. Atmosphere is great, too. Lots of outside seating is available on nice-weather days. Well worth a visit.

My wife and I went here last night for the first time. When we arrived, we were greeted by a nice laid back guy and he gave us the run down on how this place works. You seat yourself so we sat at the bar. We reviewed the menu and beers. Decided to order the Ruben and the club sandwich with fries along with a strawberry blonde beer. Everything was very good and fast. The guy at the bar was extremely cool and very knowledgeable about all the beers. He went into detail about each one so we knew what we were ordering. We had a really good time here and cant wait to come back. Cool thing I only live around the corner.

On a family outing, my father and one of my brothers decided on stopping here for lunch. This was on a day where they were celebrating "Oktoberfest", so they were serving mainly German cuisine and German beer. I ordered a Margherita Pizza; I will mention that a majority of their food products are homemade and quite authentic (the pizza was great, by the way). The staff is friendly and is in good spirits. As for the appeal, this place has plenty of seating throughout and maintains an impressive "old school" look, though the fabric used in our booth seats was falling apart.

Beer was marginal at best. Their Alt was a laughable interpretation of the style, and while the espresso stouts flavor profile was passable, both the mouthfeel and body were totally unacceptable. Pizza was a joke. The par-baked crust was burnt, the cheese and toppings sparse. Service was okay, but over all my experience with Corner was thoroughly underwhelming. Try Sidetrack instead. Cheers.

The Corner Brewery does community better than just about any other bar/tavern/pub in the area. Wander in for a pint and reflection, or easily join in a conversation. One television, thats only used for special occasions, the Corner is the place to go for a good cold beer, and warm conversations. Be sure to check out the beer garden in the summer time.

Polite, Professional Staff - Great beer at a great price and the choice of good food is increasing all the time - highly recommended! - You can have food delivered from other restaurants and the Corner is a dandy place for groups of friends or family. David McKinnon Belleville, MI

Not a fan of having to order at the bar and having to bus my own table with the prices still as high as a normal sit down restaurant. Then I got my small pathetic under cooked burger I had to send back and wait another 15 minutes to get another one... Will not be back.

Great selection of craft beers. Good service, good food. Cool beer garden outside in the summer. They also dont play music obnoxiously loudly so you can actually have a conversation with the people youre sitting with. Overall great environment. Must be 21 to get in.

Lively atmosphere with good beer. So far, without exception, the food is lackluster. The descriptions are terrific, but the product not so much. My "grilled" vegan burger was cold, and portions are wee. Its OK. Very loud, so be prepared to use outside voice.

Decent micro... Mug club prices are WAY out of line. Especially when you look at the fact that their sister ABC company in Ann Arbor has mug club for less money that offers much better perks. Very disappointed in the greed of the ABC microbrewery in Ypsilanti

Held a baby shower here and the staff was so helpful and friendly! The food was delicious and the guests had a great time! We had a semi private area and guests were able to purchase some amazing brews at the bar. I would definitely recommend this place!

Typical brewery decor. Thought the chalk board menus were very difficult to read. Service was excellent because i did everything myself except poor the beer (order at bar and bus the table), which was fine. Did not write home about the average beer.

Amazing beer, people, and atmosphere. Heavily involved in the community, and solar powered to boot. Cant recommend this place enough. Ive lived up the street for several years and take everyone who visits and never had a bad experience.

Great atmosphere and beers. service took exceptionally long initially but was good the rafter. however the house Arburger cooked medium gave me food poisoning. ruined the experience but would return for a pint or two, hold the food!
