“ I had the chicken fried chicken and my wife had the chicken tenders. We got the fried pickles for an appetizer. Such large portions and great atmosphere. We will definitely be back! ”
“ Stopped here for a late lunch on our travel through the area. Got the pulled pork fries, chicken bacon ranch quesadilla and chicken fried chicken. All were good! The quesadilla had so much flavor you didn't have to dip it in the ranch cup provided, but why wouldn't you . The fries had a good portion of toppings. The chicken fried chicken was huge! (See pic) And comes with 2 sides. Come hungry for this one, you might still have leftovers. It is a hand breaded chicken, coating was crunchy but not too thick or hard. ”
“ Fun atmosphere, Winnie was our server and took good care of us and the food was great! We got kids meal burgers and fries and a smash burger on the Monday special. Kids burgers were good and smash burger was great! They were open late which was great as we were driving all day and needed a late night dinner. ”
“ We travelled to Conway on a Saturday night for a change of pace and enjoyed the atmosphere of Brick and Forge. We were promptly greeted by by two young ladies and placed on the wait list, the wait was supposed to be about twenty minutes but we got in much quicker, btw they do have benches outside for you to wait. They have a texting system set up for your phone , how convenient is that ! We were seated in the sports bar area and it was alive with ambiance and the smell of good food! Our waiter was very efficient and had several tables but did an excellent job. I had the ribeye with loaded mashed potatoes and garlic broccoli and my dinner companion had a small pizza. Altogether with my 3 martinis the tab was only $100 bucks. Not bad for an evening out ”
“ We ordered the fried pickles, chips and salsa and queso, the salted caramel sweet potato fries, and a build your own pizza. I have to say everything was what you'd hope a restaurant would offer. The chips were light and crispy, the fried pickles were also super crispy and juicy, but those sweet potato waffle fries were to die for!!! I ordered a side of hot honey to dip them in and let me tell you, best decision ever!!!! Our server Jacob was attentive and participated in my partners shananigans. I also had the blueberry brew and the strawberry brew, both were light and not too sweet. Recommend to stop in! ”
