We finally made it to the new Mad Tree Brewing. We had been to their little original location a few times. We’ve tried to check out Mad Tree’s new location a few times but we always found ourselves trying to go at really busy times and we never could find a place to park. But we found ourselves in the neighborhood this afternoon and decided to finally check it out for lunch…
I think Mad Tree had the best social distancing precautions of any place we’ve been so far during the pandemic. Masks were mandatory to enter and they took our temperatures at the host desk…
Mad Tree had “traffic” lanes set up for everyone to follow when they were up and moving around from their tables…
We sat in the main room. But there was also an entire really huge outdoor courtyard area with another bar…
And there was another huge room behind the Catch-a-Fire kitchen that wasn’t being used while we were there…
The place is just massive. And I forgot to take a photo of the actual brewing facilities that are located off the main room where we were seated. But on to more pressing topics like taking a look at the draft list…
And once you’ve decided, you just order straight for the bar…
We ordered Kickboard with a raspberry-lemonade street pop in it, and a Nitro Hermit Crabs & Cowrie Shells…
And then it was on to ordering some Catch-a-Fire for lunch…
We ordered a 10″ Buffalo Soldier pizza…
BBQ wood-fried wings…
And Peppadew Pepper Fire Bites…
Everything was delicious. The pizza had a great flavor but the sauce wasn’t too spicy. The wings had a great, delicious char on them. And those Fire Bites were just out of this world. The little peppers were very sweet and finished with a really nice heat. They were amazing! After we were done eating, we had a Shade and a S’More Gratitude…
And exit through the gift shop please…
Mad Tree has an incredible space with terrific beers and great food. I can’t believe we waited so long to finally check it out. I can guarantee it won’t take nearly as long for our second visit. Mad Tree is pretty awesome.
