What our clients say

Janet Beilharz

The bartenders make this a fun place to hang out. They are friendly and engaging. They are happy to recommend a beer if you are feeling stuck. The food here is delicious. The poutine of the day is such a fun thing. Food is not an afterthought at this brewpub. The atmosphere is interesting. I know that they are moving to a new location soon and I’m excited to see what they do with that space.

My friend and I met up here today for a long overdue catch-up. My musician friend's brother is the CEO and co-founder of the place. It was very nice. My pal enjoyed his Western Burger and my breakfast burrito was great. He also enjoyed his craft beer (Hertz Honey Nut Brown) and I had a tasty pumpkin cider (McKenzie's Pumpkin Jack). The place was really hopping!

After the Pet Walk we took a stroll and discovered this wonderful place. We sat outside on the patio for a late lunch. It was pet friendly and the food was delicious. The service was outstanding and it was a nice relaxing time. If we are in the area again I’ll definitely be back!

Andy Degnitz

We chose this place as a date night bucket pull. We have a 30 minute radius from Waldo, that we choose from. This was our first pull and it did not disappoint. Inventors Brew Pub is definitely going back into the bucket for another date night adventure.

Inventors was the perfect place to host my grandmother’s 90th birthday party! They were beyond accommodating and helped make the event a total success. Can’t thank their team enough for taking care of our 70+ family and friends, helping us all celebrate an amazing woman, especially on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend! As usual, the beers, food and staff were incredible.

REVIEWS

This brewery is the perfect spot to bring friends and family! The layout is spacious and well-designed, with a separate banquet hall that’s great for live music. Despite the open space, the acoustics are surprisingly good. The beer selection is impressive, offering something for every taste, and the food is just as fantastic. The soft pretzels are a must-try, and the panko-breaded cauliflower has an amazing bite & flavor. We can only imagine how incredible the sunset views must be here in the summer—definitely a place worth coming back to!
We had a wonderful time at Inventors! ! In fact we kept going back each day we stayed in Port Washington, WI visiting my family. Their staff made our visit there the most pleasurable experience and it really felt like family. They have an excellent range of their own beers brewed on site, and their burgers and famous cheese bites with ranch dipping sauce were our favorites! Waitresses Sammy, Kya and Jamie were all fabulous!. Lake views and listening to good background music set the vibe making Inventors a very comfortable place to settle in. Definitely our place of choice. Special mention to our Waitress Sammy. She waited on us the first time we were there and is one of the nicest people we have ever met. We can’t wait to come back next time! ❤️❤️❤️
Had a chance to check out Inventors Brewpub in Port Washington on Lake Michigan downtown, for the first time and it was excellent. They NAILED IT! Had the street corn taco salad, brat poutine, cheese curds, and their own root beer. The brat poutine was very flavorful. It had their own homemade beer cheese. Beer brats, delicious cheese curds, and crispy fries! Street corn taco salad was fresh and flavorful. My only suggestion was to add more corn. The cheese curds are AMAZING! White cheddar curds that have an excellent and salty flavor. We were very happy we ordered these at the last minute. Root beer tastes more like creamed sarsaparilla root beer. We got our food super fast. The appetizer came out in maybe 3 min and the food in 6-8min, which is quite speedy. Service-Excellent, attentive, and speedy. Atmosphere - This place is absolutely LOVELY. It is very inviting with amazing views of the harbor and lake. Inviting a sports bar with lots of TV's and you can see the brewing vats for brewing their beer. (I'm sure there's a fancier word for what they are called). There are large windows and glass garage doors surrounding it that open up in summer. There is outdoor seating as well and just an absolutely incredible space. There is a small room off the main area, and it appears they have an adjacent hall that can be for rent, it appears. This space was absolutely lovely, too. It could accommodate a wedding reception. It has very tall ceilings throughout and lots of natural lighting
Went for appetizers and drinks and our server was absolutely wonderful! The food/drinks were excellent. Would definitely go back!
First time here. Julie our server was great! Very attentive. Checked in with us regularly but not too much. Wisconsin poutine was fantastic!!! Chicken sandwich was very tasty but quite thin so that is what resulted in the 4 rating. Great atmosphere. View of the harbor through garage door windows.
Sammy greeted us with such a happy attitude! Then our server was Jamie and she was energetic,friendly and so wonderful....the whole experience was perfect! Food and atmosphere was lovely! A view of the lake. The warm sunshine on a very cold day! Delightful!
First visit today was for lunch. Waitress was very attentive and super pleasant. Interesting menu and the food was excellent. Loved the Street Taco Salad (very spicy!) with grilled chicken. Four stars because for a lunch the food was a little pricey (and also that means we won't be able to go often). Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5
The new building is gorgeous! Trivia is the best!
From a visit back in September. Saved us when we were looking for dinner at a later hour (8:30pm); very good service, filling food Food: 4/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5
J-Me was and always has been a wonderful server when I have stopped in either by myself, or with others. She is friendly and provides such a positive energy. If you are looking for a place to sit in n the sun and enjoy the waterfront with a great server, you can find a nice experience here at Inventors Brewpub. Food: 4/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 Recommended dishes Giant Pretzel with Cheese, Western Burger Vegetarian options I’m sore, I can’t address, as I do like meat here and there. Dietary restrictions I’m sorry, not sure what to say. As an older person, I have to stay away from fried foods, so they have plenty to eat for us older peeps. Parking space Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options Paid parking lot, Free street parking Parking When you come in the Summer, the marina is very busy. In the Winter, you are good to go in the marina area for free:) Kid-friendliness I’ve seen many families inside and out. Wheelchair accessibility One can park in the marina area. Just be sure to check in with marina.
