Perfect for casual beers with friends and sunny afternoons. Huge selection of beers and some non-alcoholic options (kombucha, though not on tap). Love the indoor / outdoor atmosphere - you can sit at the bar to watch a game, sit at a table and play a board game, or sit on the balcony and watch the sunset.

I'm not sure if this place serves food so I don't have an opinion on that option. I've only been there three times and the bar staff are not unfriendly but not overly friendly at the same time if you get my meaning. I know that it's hard to find good help these days and they should hire someone with a bit more personality to run the show.

Nice layover at Gizmo’s in Durham. We had a 90 minute wait at a dental clinic so we headed over to the brewery for a few cold ones. Matt the bartender was excellent and suggested some brews to try. I had the hop on top IPA from Linwood brewing which was awesome and my wife had the Once upon a lime in Mexico which is a good rendition of Corona draft with lime. No food availability-except for munchies but we ordered chicken from the restaurant below the brewery. Definitely worth a stop!!

I’ve been to Gizmo several times before - it’s your standard brewery as any other. It’s got a nice layout inside. The location is also nice. The bartender was quick to take our order and provide us suggestions- they seemed knowledgeable about their beers. I had one of their stouts that was seasonal and it was nice.

Didn't eat there but the beer choices are great! The place looks brand new ... everything super clean. They have a bunch of video games that you can play. Very good open concept wide open space. The patio is perfect. Great view!
