## What it's known for

Stylish brewpub opened in 2019 and named after the original 40-acre parcel that became North Park. It brews hop-forward ales, crisp lagers and barrel-aged stouts, and has a seasonal kitchen (burgers, tacos, flatbreads, steak frites). Open noon to 10pm Monday to Wednesday, noon to midnight Thursday and Friday, 11:30am to midnight Saturday and 11:30am to 10pm Sunday.

Across University Avenue and a block east of North Park Beer Co. Pet- and family-friendly, and the best sit-down food stop on the route.

Check opening hours with the venue before you go: they change, especially early in the week.
