Downtown by Beer Tree Brew

Beer Tree knocked it out of the park again. Centrally located in downtown Binghamton. Trifecta is complete. Next to downtown parking garage so no worries about parking. Expect the same awesome service here. Food and beer is delicious as always.

Downtown by Beer Tree is Beer Tree Brewery's third brick and mortar establishment in, unironically, downtown Binghamton. This restaurant focuses a little more on lunch sandwiches and burgers. With three establishments within a fairly close proximity, I really enjoy the fact that each of Beer Tree's restaurants have their own menu. It really opens up the options depending on what you are feeling to eat on any particular day.

We walked in to grab an early dinner on a weekend around 5pm. The establishment was relatively busy, but we were able to be seated immediately.

On this visit we ordered the Giant pretzel with beer cheese as an appetizer, Grilled Chicken Pesto Sandwich with fries, and a house special BBQ and fried onion burger with Dr Pepper inspired BBQ sauce, also with fries. The wait between ordering and each phase of getting our drinks, appetizer, and entrees was relatively short considering the busyness of the restaurant at the time, and the staff were very helpful, came to check on us often, and were friendly while doing so!

The Giant pretzel with beer cheese was served very hot and fresh, and the Beer Tree beer cheese NEVER disappoints at being absolutely fantastic. The Chicken Pesto Sandwich was great, and the BBQ burger was incredibly tasty with the Dr Pepper undertones in the BBQ sauce giving the burger a very unique taste. As I would expect from a Beer Tree establishment, A+ food!

Overall, I would absolutely recommend Downtown by Beer Tree, especially if you are a fan of either of their other restaurants. You are going to pay a bit more here, but the food is for sure worth the extra hit to your wallet.

Hot Nashville chicken sandwich was perfection, along with their fries sprinkled in truffle salt. BTDT has Caesar and Cobb salads on offer that I will try many times to come. Such an awesome anytime spot! Great for breakfast, lunch, dinner, late night drinks—such a versatile place to hang with friends.

Good ambience, good food but disappointed by the chips/fries that came along with the Nashville Chicken sandwich. The chips were burnt and gave a coal-ly after taste. Beers are always nice and fresh.

I stopped there on a business trip, I really like the decoration of the brewery, didn't have a chance to try the food, but it looks really nice and tasty. Beer is really good! I love the NEIPAS and a sour infusion with rasberry and lime, the people there is young, definitely a college town, Grace (hostess - sorry if not spelling your name correctly) were really nice since the beginning to the end, even help me with my order to go!, continue with that service guys, I recommend 100% to visit this place 👌

Visited for lunch with a friend! The environment was laid-back and inviting. Not too busy on Wednesday at noon, but not dead either.
I started with an Americano since I wanted something warm to drink. Their espresso was really nice! Very smooth and almost sweet. To eat, I had the Roasted Jackfruit Ciabatta, subbing a side Brewhouse Salad for the fries. The sandwich was excellent! The jackfruit was so good - the Italian-seasoned barbeque sauce was something a little different and it worked very well, and the ciabatta bun was fresh and light. The salad was great too. I really liked the honey lemon vinaigrette and the croutons were perfection. It came with bacon which I wasn't expecting and had to pick out, but that's mostly my fault for not reading the menu (I just asked the waiter if I could sub a salad for the fries, and he asked me if I wanted house salad or Caesar - I said "house" figuring it was just a basic salad and not seeing the Brewhouse Salad on the menu). I also had a taste of the buffalo tofu from my friend's salad, which was perfectly crispy and coated with a delicious sauce.
Prices are a little on the high side but not exorbitant. It was a $3 upcharge to get the side salad, but it was the biggest side salad I've ever seen - the bowl was almost as big as my friend's entree-sized salad.
Our server was friendly and very accommodating of my friend's nut allergy. When we ordered and told him about the allergy, he told us that he was pretty sure they had no nuts in the kitchen anyway but would double check, and then came back a few minutes later to confirm that everything would be nut-free.

Had ciabatta breakfast sandwich with egg, avocado & tomatoes with a golden milk latte. Sandwich was healthy if thats what youre looking for. The latte was great, the girl at the counter was great. Unfortunately too early for beer, lol

The rooftop is such a great place for a springtime brunch! Their parm pretzel is absolutely delish.

Good beer with great service and space. The food can be a little hit or miss, but its generally solid. The specials standout more than the regular menu. Of all of the beer tree locations, this is the best and I come here semi regularly.

The coffee is also better than the local average.

Stopped in earlier this year while I was at the holiday inn as its right across the parking lot and honestly thought it wasn’t great. Beer was okay, service was iffy. I recently went back during a snowstorm while I was in Binghamton again, and I was really impressed. Even though it was slow, the service and food was great and I really enjoyed the beer I had recommended to me. Very impressed in the swing around
