Bull Island Brewing Company

All's good in my hood! Love Laura's Tripel! UPDATE: Came home tonight and found a XXX in the fridge. Winner winner chicken dinner! 9.20.23: Thank you guys for staying open a little later to welcome our new friends sailing around the world!

Wandered in today with the kiddos for lunch before visiting the Air and Space Center! Wasn’t sure if it would be kiddo friendly as it is a brewery, and boy was I pleasantly surprised! The service was fantastic! The food was amazing!!! And as a Hampton Native, the view is unbeatable! Definitely give them a try wether you have the kids with you or not! Parking: The restaurant is directly below the parking garage so it is very convenient!

Food was solid. Pizza was sensational, and the drinks hit the spot. Our server was sweet. The restaurant was kinda hidden around the corner but was soooo worth it!

Eh

Beer is good. Food is good. The issue was with the cook. We were there tonight with a few friends to wrap up our fantasy football season. My friend ordered a chicken quesadilla. Eventually his food came out but it was beef not chicken. He really wasn't paying attention so started eating it. The cook came out a few minutes later in a threatening manner and told him "you know that's not your food. Your food is on the other table." It wasn't my friends fault someone brought my friend the wrong order. Also earlier the same cook came out (we didn't know it was the cook at the time) and asked us about our fantasy football trophy on the table. My other friend said he won it and $300. The cook pulled out a freakin pocket knife and pulled out the blade and said "Where's the money?" before putting the knife away. I wish I was kidding and we thought he was a random weird customer at the time. This guy should NOT be working for this place. One of the employees gave my friend (the one with the fajita) a business card for the manager but we didn't mention the pocket knife at the time because we felt weird. Don't think we'll be back.

Went here on a date and loved it. The bartender was so helpful and had great energy. The food and drinks were amazing.

This is the BEST BEER I’ve had in Hampton Roads area! Everything was perfectly on style. The Marzen, the stouts, the Belgian, the double IPA, the Mexican lager…these are very different styles, but they nailed them all! My favorite was the oyster jalapeño stout, but that’s probably because I was cold (in Nov) and it warmed me up. Parking: Free parking for brewery in the garage. It wasn’t busy on a Tuesday, but I don’t know about weekends.
