Southern Tier Brewery really shined for the welcome dinner my wife and I hosted to kick off our wedding weekend. The packages are decently priced and the drink minimum was able to ...be easily met by 40 people.
The pierogis, the Cleveland staple, were a hit. The meatballs were decent, and the chicken sliders were classic.
The drinks themselves, beers, cider, and cocktails, were all very well brewed and made. Our fave was the Bullfrog.
The staff (Kelsey especially) was very on top of everything, attentive before, during, and after the event. I never had to flag down a bartender for refilling food or drink.
There are pre-set limit options (ticket option, pre-set cost limit, etc.) or open bar options, so there is so much you can do to customize the package exactly the way you want it.
Only thing to prepare for is if there is a sporting event going on downtown to get there early to find parking. Southern Tier is right near the Jake so parking can be very busy and expensive.
