  This was my second visit to Suffolk Punch. I went for a coffee.. I went at 3:30pm on a Saturday and asked if there was a place to sit and drink my coffee. The barista said to ask the hostess. The hostess said I could sit at bar which was not where I would normally sit for coffee and there were no seats available. By the way, the entire restaurant seating area was empty. She said we could go outside. We sat at tables on patio. The server said we could sit there 45 min until they started seating for dinner. 5 minutes later a server told me I needed to move and go to picnic area which was also packed. In short, get some tables for the coffee bar if indeed, you are a coffee bar. I'm going by what your website says . It's a weird setup. The coffee was good but I wouldn't return for just coffee. And I've had lunch there too. Food was pretty good. Debatable whether I would return. I've never taken time to write a review but I left feeling unwelcome. If I were an owner I would want honest feedback. Hope someone takes note.

  Brunch was amazing here. We were seated immediately with a warm greeting. Everyone was in a great mood - perhaps it was the wonderful weather - but we had exceptional service Some really cool things about this restaurant/brewery - they have great local beer prices for their Sunday brunch. We’re talking $4 or less for a local beer, that’s great in my opinion. I ordered the chilaquiles- they were phenomenal. My friends ordered the French roast and the basic breakfast. No matter what the order - the food was cooked at a great temp, and it tasted fantastic. (Although I should point out that everyone agreed mine was the best, so order the chilaquiles if you can). All in all - no complaints. The venue was clean - parking was easy to get. The neighborhood is walkable but a good way from downtown so would recommend driving. The bar is large so you could always get a seat there if there wasn’t seating too!

  We happened upon this place because TripleC was closed on a Monday. What a great place! Excellent tap selection including a great selection from Hyde Brewery and a number of guest taps. The food all sounds great. The Suffolk Punch burger was a true craft burger. Best place on the Blue Line light rail.

  Let's start with the positive- if you're going for beers/casual drinks, this place is excellent. It's busy even on weeknights (relatively speaking), so it's a solid atmosphere with a wide variety of drink options. However, they also position themselves as a coffee shop. When it comes to the coffee, it's not good. I've ordered several different coffee options, including my go-to Americano, and I have yet to enjoy any of the beverages. I want to like this place so badly because it's so convenient for me to go in the mornings, but I can't get over how awful the coffee is. As a coffee shop it's a 1 star option. As a happy hour/casual drink spot it's a 5 star option. I can't speak to the lunch menu because I haven't eaten here, but kind of hard to justify a $19 chicken salad....

  I heard really good things about this place after it opened, so I scheduled a happy hour here. Walking in, I immediately loved the decor. All of the plants are my favorite part. It was nice out so we sat on the patio. They have a really large drink selection from their own beers, to other craft beer, to ciders, to cocktails. I had a cocktail and some ciders and they were all really good. I ordered some small plates: the Pimiento cheese, the beet stained deviled eggs, and the tuna crudo. I enjoyed all of them, but they were a little expensive for the portion sizes you got. My experience was pretty good until it started to get dark and cold outside and we tried to go inside. They wouldn't let us sit inside unless we ordered an entree. Given that we had already eaten and were trying to enjoy the brewery, this was very frustrating. I get that it's also a restaurant, but the fact that there is no way to enjoy the brewery without being outside is ridiculous. We convinced someone to order an entree and the service inside want very good. The burger want cooked as ordered and the service was slow. The food is also pretty expensive. I've avoided going here for happy hours since then because I don't want to be forced to sit outside if I don't want to eat. I think this is a pretty big problem they need to solve if they don't want to be a restaurant exclusively.
