An excellent experience! The beer was well crafted, as was the food. The burger I ordered was prepared exactly as requested and I really enjoyed the poutine tots. Service was excellent and fast. If you like a good brew pub experience, go to Bluejackets.

The service was terrible. The hostess was annoyed I came in and that she had to interact because she was on her phone and the server wouldn't come around unless I flagged him down and was just on his phone the whole time in the corner. It took 2 hours to have 1 drink and burgers for 2 people.

We had a reservation and was given a table. Liked the reasonable price and portion size of the beer samples. Dry rub wings and chicken salad were tasty, I would return for those. Service was attentive as the staff worked as a team.

We went for restaurant week with people who had been there before. Had a great meal (pork chop tender and juicy, steak as ordered with great chimichuri, melt-in-your-mouth trout, and amazing dry rub on the chicken, to say nothing of the very light calamari, deviled eggs, and generous beet salad, and did I mention the amazing desserts?), with a very efficient and attentive, but unobtrusive waiter. The food arrival was well paced, and we never felt rushed. Our tablemates confirmed that the restaurant week portions were the same as the regular portions. We'll definitely be back!

Met a friend at Bluejacket to watch the USWNT play in the Olympic soccer gold medal game. Got there at opening and had great seats in the bar area, good food, tried a few different sour beers, received excellent service from Nathan. Bigger TVs or a projector would have been nice to see more of the game from the booth seats, but really can’t complain too much about that.
