Deep Ellum Tap Room

Pretty damn good tap room. And busy too even on a cold damp day. Nice big TVs. Despite the crackheads loitering in the bathroom and outside, I’d happily give 5 stars if they had barstools AT the bar.

Woo Hoo! Live music, great selection of beer on tap, fun games, what more could you ask for? The bartender gave us loads of samples to ensure we liked what we were buying.

I’d be tempted to give this place a 4 since there’s no food served, but the service is spectacular, and the setting is clean and open. I dig it. Just in case you don’t get it: beer, lots of it. Good beer. Patio seating in the back, and board games, too.

The bartenders were rude. Neither girl would give us the time of day, too busy watching TV to answer questions about their own beers! Not cool, especially to a couple of actual beer drinkers. No bulls**t. Four stars for the product alone, 0 stars for the shitty service.

THIS PLACE IS GREAT!!! The owner was behind the bar spitting beer knowledge and recommended some great local beers! Even the regulars made you feel like it’s a place I had been coming to for years! There is nothing I love more than going to a place where you can feel the love someone has put into their dream. I will definitely be back my next time in Dallas… although I will not ask the proprietor to pour whatever shot he thinks is best next time! lol

Awesome! Loved the entertainment and loved the atmosphere. We were given a tour by an investor, didn’t catch his name, quiet guy but knew a lot about the beer’s processes (obviously).

Deep Ellum Brewery is one of Dallas’ best kept secrets. I discovered their existence maybe a few months ago? They have only been in business for three years and have been highly successful. The tap room/​brewery is homey and does not have a commercialized feel to it.
This review is for the tap room only. It’s a really neat little place that has a stellar outdoor patio area complete with string lights and a corner for live music. It’s homey, and even when they’re busy, you feel at home. The tap room has a ton of board games and cool tables to sit at. Each brew is represented by a cutesy graffiti sign hanging on the bar wall. You can taste each beer to your heart’s content, and the beers are reasonably priced. Ethan and the other bartenders are helpful and will give suggestions based on what types of beer you are usually privy to.
I’m not a huge IPA fan, but I really enjoyed the Easy Peasy IPA. The hops don’t smack you in the face, but eases you into the IPA flavor. Dallas Blonde is always a good choice as well if you aren’t into that strong ass kick. I like Dos Equis, so the Neato Bandito was a great alternative.
The tap room is a fun place to hang out, for sure. It’s great for people watching, and everyone’s friendly. (Fortunately, most of the douchebags hang out in west Plano, anyway.) The weather’s getting nice; I definitely want to bring my dog out here next time!

Easily accessible from downtown Dallas. Definitely worth a visit. They have a great beer lineup and allow flights of 4 at a time. The bartender/​tendress has great writing to somehow write in small neat handwriting on the side of the flight paddle :)
I enjoyed sampling my way around the board, and partnered up with my buddy so we can pretty much try them all.
My favs were: Deep Ellum IPA, Easy Peasy Session IPA, DTown Session Brown, Dream Crusher, and Jack the RIPA. The 4 Swords and Morpheus are both good quality but too strong for my taste. I enjoyed the name and the flavor of the LegenDairy, and am looking for the release of their cask version that is coming soon.
The staff were super friendly and helpful. They have lots of games to keep your group happy. I don’t think they had food, at least I didn’t see any. I’ll see this place on my next visit to the Big D

Loved it here. Been to Founders, Bells, so many places, and this place was great. I loved the outside area, the food truck (pizza) had amazing food, the staff took our empty pizza box when done. We sat at a table playing UNO for an hour or so, drinking their delicious beer (I forget the names, now). We both had two beers. While the line was LONG (perhaps because the nearby arts fest) it moved fast. I wasn’t expecting much but a meh place, and I gotta say this place wowed me. Except for the bathrooms, which had a bit of standing water on the floor. But really, I was in there for just a minute, so who cares.
Great beer, great atmosphere, I should take my dog next time.

This place makes good beer great IPA’s just not great service. I love the place great ambiance great location in Deep Ellum nothing different to add that I didn’t say in my previous review. The only difference is the last two times I went Ive had horrible service almost like they didnt want to be there. This last time they didn’t even try to fill up the pints almost like ¾ of the way. Usually I’m good with too much head but it was just empty space. I’m no rookie when it comes to beer I know most high in alcohol brews don’t get filled to the top but this was 7% IPA and it wasn’t consistent almost like here go away. I left a horrible tip first thing she does is show the other bartender which is fine she earned those two dollars. Not to sound all negative cause the service shouldn’t reflect the beer. The new Jack the RIPA is awesomely good.

This place is pretty freakin’ awesome.
There are tables to accommodate groups large and small, TVs with sports, and cool industrial décor. There are board games to play and an outdoor area with horseshoes and beanbag toss as well. The staff are friendly and they don’t mind if you bring your own snacks. My friends and I were able to set up at a table with a ton of food and have an awesome, relaxing afternoon playing Cards Against Humanity.
The star of this place is the beer, Deep Ellum is easily one of the best breweries in DFW and they’ve got a great selection on tap here any day you go. I get really tired of going to bars that have 5 different light beers and maybe one IPA «for the high-​maintenance hipsters», when I come here I can enjoy a quadrupel or a barleywine.

Really hate to be that person to ruin the perfect streak, but after my horrible customer experience, I just can’t give it 5 stars. Sometimes bad customer service can leave a sour taste, regardless of the product.
I first visited Deep Ellum brewery in the fall when the taproom wasn’t opened, and I had a good experience. With a few chips leftover from my initial visit, my boyfriend and I came back to redeem the chips, but discovered the new taproom instead. We also learned that the new taproom won’t accept your chips. In terms of atmosphere, I like the taproom — it’s spacious and offers a fair amount of seats indoors and outdoors.
There’s even a bigger beer selection, and as beer enthusiasts my boyfriend and I were excited to see a menu full of new beers that we haven’t tried. So when we asked our bartender what kind each beer was, she always answered in a flat and condescending tone as if we were annoying her. For example, we wanted to know what kind of beer is a «coffee ale» and her reply was a monotone «it’s a coffee ale.» Granted the answer seems obvious, and we aren’t dumb so she could have told us what it tasted like or what makes it different from a porter (or stout) or she could have simply smiled and offered us a sample. Anyways, I don’t want to ramble on, but she made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcomed. From my past experiences visiting local breweries, I’ve always been greeted with happy brewers and bartenders who are enthusiastic about their product.
But aside from service, we tried the darkest hour (imperial stout) and dream crusher double IPA. Both are pretty good. Since Deep Ellum beers are offered all over Dallas, I would prefer to enjoy their beers at a place with better customer service. However, I’ll definitely try to come back to give it a second chance in hopes that my experience was a fluke.

If you are a beer fan and in Dallas, this is where you need to be!
We came over on an awesome 75 degree Saturday afternoon and had a blast on the back patio area.
Our girl Celena @ the bar took care of us as she had us drinking Morpheus (like the Matrix) beer which was around 8% alcohol content. You can also bring outside food in which is god when you drinking a bunch of high alcohol content beer.
Great times here as the staff was awesome

What’s not to like? TVs with Mavs/​Stars/​Rangers on, plenty of board games if you need to pass the time, and let’s not forget the delicious and reasonably-​priced beer. Friendly staff, too. Try the Groundskeeper Willie Scotch Ale or the Hatch Chile Stout if they’ve got it. And check out free live trivia on Tuesdays at 7:30.

I heart the Deep Ellum tap room.
I am a big fan of their beer, so going to their tap room is a no brainer.
They always have all the stuff that they sell on a can, plus a few extra things not found on retail or restaurants.
They have a nice little indoor space with maybe 6 – 8 large tables and a pretty huge outdoor space.
Their beers are $ 5 or $ 6 depending on what you order and even though they don’t sell food, they let you bring whatever eatables you want.
Staff always super friendly and the crowd is pretty chill. Since is not an actual bar, the atmosphere is a lot more relaxed.
I absolutely recommend it.

The new taproom is incredible. You can still do the brewery tour deal & get 3 beers & a glass for $ 15 or you can order by glass or flight. It can be really packed if you go near the brewery tour times but gets less crowded as the day gets later. Even had some live music when I was there but the place could use some food too.

Great ambiance, great staff, awesome music, and very affordable for what you get. This tap room addition is sure to make DEBC a household name in Dallas. Mostly young adult crowd, so it’s a great place to meet people. Wish I could give it 6 stars.

Hands down best brewery tap house in Dallas. Super happy for this addition. But Community and Four Corners in the area are certainly worth a visit too. Cheers

Came in for my cousin’s birthday party. Not a huge fan of beer in general but the blonde and the atmosphere here is phenomenal. Will definitely come back.
