Benson Brewery

Benson Brewery is a solid staple in the Benson neighborhood, with great beer/drinks selection and pretty tasty food options.

The interior decor is very diner-style, with a long booth along one side, and bar seating on the other. The open kitchen can be seen at the far end of the restaurant, which is always kind of nice to see.

There is a side room that's great for overflow on busy days or for larger groups/events. A few tables and chairs are also out front on the patio.

My favorite beer they have is the Blonde Bunny when I want something lighter. A lot of their other beer options are sours or IPAs or darker, which I know is some people's cup of tea - just not mine

Appetizer-wise, I love the Brussels Sprouts, but they seem to have changed a little over the years. This past time there was a lot less balsamic, and some type of fruit/vegetable (maybe the candied oranges?) that had a numbing effect on my mouth.

My friend who had the same app agreed, so it wasn't just me. Still tasty and all, but just different from previous times I had ordered it.

The Brew Fries are absolutely delicious, with house seasoning and a few dips you can order, including a homemade ranch that was to die for.

And then there's my favorite entree/sandwich - the pork tenderloin! It's breaded to perfection, the aioli is super yummy (I always order extra), and the bun comes all toasty and divine. I have never gotten a good photo of this, because it gets gobbled up so quickly!

The service was great the last time we were there with a group of 17 (!!!) so kudos to the staff in putting up with us :-)

I would definitely recommend Benson Brewery for a quick bite, great beer, or to catch a game.

The creamy IPA mustard with the soft pretzels - OMG!
Very tasty craft food, went with a party of 5 and everyone enjoyed their meals. The quality and presentation is there and the sauces are homemade and delicious which always wins me. It's not hard to make great ranch!
Husband got the fish and chips, perfectly crisp. I tried the bacon blue cheese burger, topped perfect, and you can't go wrong with hand cut fries.
The restaurant is deceptively larger than it looks from the outside. We'd looked at the menu a handful of times before but were turned away with the small size, man was that a mistake. The flavors make up for the small selection. We will be back!

Tucked away toward the end of the business strip, this tasty little brewery serves the hungry and thirsty. Not only is it simple and charming, the food and brews are well worth the price.

Service seemed standard for such a business. Friendly and available. The environment suits a drinking clientele, as once expects from a brewery.

I tried a dark brew that served as a second meal, and their pale ale. Both were excellent. So was my burger. I recommend.

Cool brewery in a cool neighborhood. A good variety of beers on tap. Great atmosphere. Yummy food. Got the bacon blue burger, Cuban sandwich and Mac and cheese. Traci was a good waitress. We even got a T-shirt for a souvenir.

We headed to Benson Brewery in Omaha with the whole family. This brewery is bigger than it looks from the outside, and it strikes the right balance between quirky and casual. It seems to be a great spot for date night and casual get-togethers with friends or family.

I ordered the Bacon Bleu Burger, and it came cooked to perfection - I loved the blend of the bacon and tangy blue cheese. My husband was super-happy about the vegetarian options, including Vegan Gyro, Black Bean Burger, and Seitan Vegan Wings. It's pretty rare to find that many veggie options on a smaller menu like this.

Our server was so friendly and frequently checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed.

The prices are a bit on the high side, but the quality and flavors made it all worthwhile. And the guys raved about the beers, so that was an extra plus! Overall, great experience!!

I enjoyed this place specifically for the vegan options. I had the gyro and the wings and if I had choose between I'd go for the gyro. There were a lot of beer options to choose from but they're all quality options. They have TVs if you want to watch the game and they have room for your friends to meet up! Overall for food and drink purposes it's a solid pick if you're in the area. Also if you have time to stop by during happy hour I'd recommend.

Yummy! Cute little place with good food and drinks. The mac and cheese was good but I'll for sure get a burger next time, they looked amazing. Good place for a date night or friend get together.

Had the weekly Burger last night it was the onion Chipotle jam burger with havarti cheese. You cannot get a bad Burger at Benson Brewery. If you like fresh cut fries, they pile them high.

Sadly Benson Brewery did not live up to the hype. We got two seasonal beers and the mainstay sour. The beers were all good. We followed that with the pretzel sticks and brussel sprouts. The Brussels sprouts were the highlight of the meal. A uniquely prepared dish with oranges.

It was the burgers where things took a turn. The menu states made to order, warns about undercookedeat, etc. And the waitress asked how we wanted them made. Our three burgers were supposed to be medium and medium rare but all were well done. If you aren't going to even attempt to make them as ordered, why ask?

There are so many great Benson restaurants that we probably won't be back, but if we do return we will stick to beer and apps.

We've come here several times while visiting with family. With numerous brews on tap and service with a smile, you'll be happy you stopped in. If you're a trivia person, check out their Thursday nights. Plenty of fun, a good host, and a fun venue. Highly recommended.
