Amazing food and everything was compostable! We sat outside with our dogs and toddler and the garden area was very beautiful. Everything on the menu looked good and we may have left having eaten more than we could handle. I ordered the black bean burger, my husband got the schnitzel, we all split hummus and veggies, then ended the meal with mango soft serve and a brownie. Delicious 🀀

Beer was cold and staff was friendly. Indoor seating and a large, open patio area in the back. Food available from BrewRiver. We had soft pretzels with cheese and they were good!

Wonderful flavor on that Wild Mushroom Poutine. I had my reservations going in, but so far four menu items I tried were amazing and my 8 friends agreed they were pleased and satisfied.Caution for new folks, they have a walk up and order way of doing things, no traditional wait staff.

They have a great selection of tasty beers and are one of the few in the region that opens before 4 most days. They have plenty of outdoor seating as well as a spacious taproom. From root beer float ipas to carrot cake ale, you can find something for just about anyone here. They also have food on site, so you dont need to stop somewhere in the way. Definitely one of the best breweries in the area.

Love this place. It’s a convenient location, plenty of space, beers are great, good food and service is awesome. Im always greeted with a smile. Can’t say that about other venues so I like this place and will continue to go back for that reason.

Nice outdoor seating area. Great place on a nice day. Indoor area is small. Industrial style. Good atmosphere for conversation and enjoying time with friends.They have food, but I did not get any. Good variety of beer. I tried a few. All were good, but nothing to crave or seek out.Overall, good place to go if youre looking to hang with people outside and enjoy a beer. Its more about the atmosphere and setup than the beer, to me.

An emerging staple in Cincinnati’s beer scene. A welcome space, lots of beers on tap, and course they are delicious.

Made a special trip here from out of town to begin a day of brewery hopping around Cincinnati. Our beertender Tyler was awesome, made us feel incredibly welcome, and set a high bar for the rest of our day. Cannot say enough good things about this place!

We had a work team-building event that required some outside space, catering and happy hour. Haley, Tim, Joby & Tyler were excellent to work with, and we got a lot of kudos from our team on the venue/beer/food/atmosphere. So good to have a place like Sonder in β€œthe neighborhood.” Great experience - highly recommend and we’ll do it again.

Really enjoyable experience there. Picked out a couple of beers, that were served in proper glassware, and sat outside in their beer garden with families and others playing games. Ordering food was at a separate area, but very easy to place and pickup. Indoor area was spacious. Beer menu had a wide range of very well crafted styles.

Review β„–17

Beer was good, but the food was a heart attack on a plate. Other than the bean burger everything else was unhealthy and high fat. Even the coleslaw was swimming in mayo, hard to find the veggies. The jambalaya was a bowl of gravy with some small pieces of sausage and a small amount of rice. Next time we will just go for beer.

Great Beer Taste and Variety. Chicken Sandwich was fresh and tasty. Bar seemed to be constantly short on glassware. If your glass was empty you had to protect it from getting swipped by staff. But not a big deal. Good Service and lots of room indoor and out.

Excellent craft beers with good service. The food was fantastic. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. It was worth the drive from Dayton. I definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the area but it is also worth making a special trip.

My parents and I visited Sonders for the first time this evening. The drinks were good, the food was mostly decent. Reason I am rating one star is because of the service from the restaurant. I told the young lady that was taking orders that I wanted a fried bologna sandwich with just tomato only. Confirmed that it was tomato only and then proceeded with the rest of the order after approximately 20 minutes they text me that our food was ready. I go up and get it and bring it to the table and find that the fried bologna sandwich had tomatoes, cheese and mustard on it. I take it back and nicely told them the mistake. I was first met with attitude and argument then the lady stormed off and another guy said theyd get it fixed no problem and that guy was nice. He had also overheard the conversation. It takes them another 10 to 15 minutes to bring out the new sandwich. Yet again it is wrong. We ask to see a manager and were told that due to a line, the manager wouldnt come out but we could go up to the window. My whole thing about not going to the window to begin with is to not cause a scene. We will not be back and we will be sharing our experience with family and friends

We went to Sonder Brewing this past weekend and Ive got to say Im rather impressed. To my surprise, they had one of the better beer selections Ive seen in a newer brewery. They had good hefeweizen, great brown ale and some pretty good lagers. As for the food, it was good although I would shy away from their mystery pickle mix they offer, their mac n cheese was pretty good, and the Po Boy was amazing. Im not sure but it tasted and looked like the mustard was even house mad on the sandwich. I will definitely be a return customer here.

Review β„–38

Food comments are not a direct reflection of Sonder even though they should be held to the same high standards as Sonder does for the beer they produce. Do better BrewRiver.Nice space with plenty of seating and bar space. The food was just okay. Not much seasoning on anything we ordered. Plenty of people working the bar so wait times for beer werent long. We will be back but probably for just beers next time.Returned 9.18.21. Beer was good as usual but I wanted something sweet. There was a brownie sundae on the menu and sounded good. What a waste of 5 dollars. The brownie had to be missing sugar. We each ate one bite and threw it away.Don’t go with high expectations of the food!!

I’ve been there a few times and haven’t found a beer I really like. Today’s try was one of their lagers that was overly hoppy for a lager. Their wait-in-line process disrupts the flow in their bar and partially obstructs the main entrance. Their wall-mounted beer menu lacks IBUs information. I do like their spacious outdoor seating.

One of my favorite breweries in the Cincinnati area. Their tap selection is huge and I continue to find a new favorite every time I come. Fried chicken sandwich was delicious as well. Sitting outside in February was great due to the massive overhead heaters in the patio area.

Good beer & a cool space with both indoor & outdoor seating options. My only complaint is that the tap list on the website often seems to be out of date - on several occasions a beer that I see on the site is tapped out when I visit the same day.

Fantastic brewery in the burbs. Great place to take your family on the weekend have a couple nice beers and enjoy some delicious food by Brew River kitchen (get the chicken sandwich) also the house made ketchup is awesome. As for beer the DIPA and sours were very good. We’ll stop back again. Highly recommend.

Review β„–52

Really great beers and they do offer wine as well for those that get dragged to a brewery against their will! I was a big fan of the Oktoberfest seasonal. Atmosphere is brewery-esque, but fun and the outdoor seating and setup is pretty. Food is creative and tasty. Ive enjoyed several weeknight evenings here and plan on several more. Absolutely stop in for a beer, beer to go, or both!

Review β„–59

Love this place and their beers. Cool vibe - sort of quasi-industrial inside and usually pretty mellow outside. Great food (via BrewRiver) - maybe the best chicken sandwich in town (or sammich, as they list it!). Fun events, like Oktoberfest, when were not in a pandemic!Speaking of which - I feel theyve taken COVID seriously from the very beginning and put serious thought into their procedures/setup as a result. Its the same sort of attention to detail they put into their beer and business model.Definitely recommend.

Nothing special. They have a Dunkeweizen which is hard to find but the food took an hour for a burger and a wrap. They’re not even that busy to justify it. Kept being told 5 minutes longer and there was 1 order in front of us. I don’t usually leave a negative review but this was bad. Then the food sat in the window for 10 minutes with no text since they don’t have any wait staff. It’s all self serve like a food truck with a roof. Only 1 star because of a Dunkelweizen.

I really enjoyed this place, they have a great selection of beer. I was a big fan of their You Betcha IPA, but the other beers I tried were very good too! They also have a fantastic food selection, and their kitchen made delicious food quickly. The inside and outside seating areas were both nice and comfortable. And the prices on everything very reasonable, making it an overall great place to grab a drink and even a good place for dinner.

Sonder has a huge indoor taproom as well as lots of outdoor space. Nearly 20 beers on tap, the next one better than the last! Very extensive food menu has enough options for everyone... from burgers to shawarma to poutine. Although my favorite item is the fried chicken sandwich. You will not be disappointed!

The building is relatively new but lacks character. The beer selection seemed a little sparse and only found 2 that appealed. One was an IPA which us my preferred. It was a solid IPA. Also tried a stout. Again good flavor and a solid beer.They have a Brew River outlet. The pickled vegetables are really good and the gumbo poutine fries were good.A good experience and would go back.

My favorite Brewery. Blanc is the best beer on the planet their Dunkelweizen is amazing as well and their other beers are good too. Im not an IPA guy but I do like their rotating hops IPA.

Been coming here for awhile, beer is amazing and typically the food is as well. Had their brunch and I am super disappointed. After waiting 45 minutes on a day you weren’t even busy, to be served a $9 β€œbreakfast” sandwich on white bread with one slice of undercooked bacon, a spoonful of scrambled egg and velveeta cheese, is ridiculous. Do yourself a favor and just quit evening trying and stick to what you know...lunch.
