Laurelwood Brewing Company
The more I blog, the more I realize a) how much I eat out (scary) and b) what nice places we have in P-town. Laurelwood Brewing Company is a great home-town brewery that serves decent food. I’ve only ever had the happy hour, and there are a few tips and tricks to that. Nachos- great. But they have a tendency to keep them under the heat lamp for a while until all your chips are brown. Feel free to make them re-do them. Garlic Fries - are weird IMO. The garlic is funny tasting every time. It’s like the crushed garlic out of a jar, and they put a LOT on with parsley… I think they may be trying to counteract the garlic breath with the parsley, not sure if it works though. Pork sliders - don’t bother. It’s dry pork smothered in BBQ sauce on a white bun. Hummus plate - good. Has marinated artichoke, eggplant, kalamata olives, tomatoes, cucumbers and pita bread. Fish tacos - great. Their beers are all hand crafted, I really enjoyed the seasonal they have right now called Imperial Hefeweizen. Their most popular beer is their red ale called Free Range Red. They also have won a few awards with a spinoff of that, called the Double Deranger. All of the Laurelwood brewpubs are really kid friendly, which has made them really popular with our parent-friends.
On Monday nights, they have wings on special, and happy hour every night. The original Laurelwood, at 40th and Sandy, is now a pizza joint…. have yet to try it. Our server last time was Matt, and he was super friendly… even let me get a kiddie fry instead of having to order the garlic fries. I’ve had a few girls their, too, who are super sweet, always including the kids at our table. Overall, this is a nice way to support local business without breaking the bank, because their prices are reasonable. The HH is $4 a pop… watch out, because as soon as you at meat to the nachos, they are $7. Laurelwood also gives back to the community - for example, Sept 15th, 20% of all sales go to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, a great cause. So let’s all eat out Monday Sept 15th at Laurelwood! Located at 5115 NE Sandy Blvd. Open M-F 11am-11pm, Sa-Su 9am-12am. Brunch served weekends 9am-3pm, and HH 3pm-6pm and 9pm-cl every day.
