About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
We’re a diverse team of makers — baristas, bartenders, chefs, mixologists, roasters, distillers, and brewers — who came together to create a neighborhood place we all need.
It’s a place that brings people together morning, noon, and night. A place with crazy delicious food and destination drinks. A place to grab a crave-worthy bite on the fly or to hang a while with a book and coffee. A place to brunch with your besties or happy hour with your work crew. A place to roll solo with your laptop or roll deep with your family and friends.
It’s a place for you. It’s a place for us. It’s a pub for the people.
LIVE MUSIC:
EVERY FRIDAY & SATURDAY 8-11PM

    Great food and service! A little pricey, but they did provide a birthday treat for my mom. I’d definitely go again.

    A buddy and I went to eat at Makers Union on a Saturday night. We arrived around 9:00pm. The food was good, and the server was attentive. There was also live music - a guy playing guitar and singing. So far, everything is perfect, right? Not really. The music was way too loud. This essentially ruined it for us. We were there for good food and conversation. When you are leaning in and reading lips all night, it becomes tiresome. If you want to hang at the bar and shout to your friends during the music, then this is your place. If you want to eat dinner and chat with friends, I'd go elsewhere on a Saturday night.

    Our waiter JP was excellent and half of the dishes were very good. Perhaps it was because of Valentine's Day, but the restaurant was very crowded and no area at the bar where we could get drinks while waiting for our table.

    We dined in for Valentine’s Day and took advantage of the 3 course pre fix menu. The flavors were excellent, but the portions for both the appetizers and desserts were barely more than a mouthful. I’ve eaten here before and enjoyed everything about the experience. Maybe shrinkflation?

    Our waitress was wonderful and made this Birthday celebration just perfect! The waitress answered all my questions on dairy in the food w/o having to run back to the kitchen. She was incredibly attentive. The food and mock-tail was outstanding! I had to replace one of the elements in my order due to dairy and would have missed the mushrooms as a result. Asked if they could add in a few and the kitchen made sure I had mushrooms in the new side I replaced it with. I didn't feel like I missed out on anything. The music was pretty cranked up when we first sat down and mellowed a bit when the singer came on. We loved our meals and the service! Plan to return to Makers Union in the future!
