Frequently Asked Questions
Heading out to see us? Here are some things you may want to consider:
Do you offer live entertainment? - Yes, we do. We tend to have a band or solo musician one night a week. We also offer stand up comedy from time to time, and hold a trivia game every Tuesday.
If you are in a band looking to book with us, before you contact us read the atmosphere question above. If you are a Country, Blue Grass, Pop, or an AC/DC or Nickelback cover band / solo musician, we will not consider you unless we know you (some exceptions will be made at discretion of the owners).
What are your hours? - Please scroll down to the bottom of this page.
Do you sell gift cards? - Yes we do. You can buy an e-gift card here or pick one up next time you stop in.
Are you dog friendly? - We are not inside because we offer food through our restaurant partner. However, we do have an outside patio area where dogs are more than welcome.
Are you kid friendly? - Absolutely. We are family friendly and have a cocktail arcade machine, a pinball machine, and a foosball table that are free to play. On top of that, we have coloring books, crayons, and board games to keep your young ones entertained. With that said, we are not babysitters and this is a drinking establishment. We ask that you keep an eye on your kids and DO NOT leave them unattended. Guests who leave their kids left unattended may be asked to leave and will be held responsible for any damages done by their children.
What is the atmosphere like? - As our logo implies we love rock & roll. Expect a mix of 90's grunge, 90's alternative, blues, punk, classic rock, modern rock, and heavy metal on our stereo at any given time. That is not to say we will not have on any other music. Our taproom is essentially two sections with our bar connecting them. The front is built with reclaimed barn wood from a fallen barn in New Richmond, Ohio. The back is a warehouse with a view of our production area. We have one of the biggest TV screens in the Tri-State area and have multiple other TVs around our taproom. On top of the free entertainment listed above, we also have Golden Tee and Pop-a-shot in our backroom.
Can I bring outside food? - No, unless it is outside of Bender’s Pub Grub operating hours.
Am I allowed to smoke? - No. We use oxygen in our brewing process and do not allow smoking inside our facility. However, we do have an outdoor patio area where you are more than welcome to smoke or vape.
What is your growler fill policy? - It depends on the beer and our inventory. We also have a crowler seamer, allowing us to fill 32oz cans from our taps for you. Crowlers keep better than growlers but are half the size. A crowler equals two pints (16 oz) and a growler equals 4 pints.
Do you offer a private event option? - Yes. For more information please click here.
I collect beer memorabilia and would like a sticker or coaster? Please do not message us on Facebook or email us regarding what you are looking for. Instructions can be found in the “Contact Us” section of our website.
