Make My Entendre a Double! - Brew Urban Cafe Himmarshee

I love a a good play on words...and a good beer. Thats why I like Brew Urban cafe...plus you cna't beat the location... it's right on Las Olas and the train tracks, in the center of downtown!

The Food:
The only food here is the kind you'd find at starbucks... prepackaged pastries, and the like. Dont come here hungry, because that's how you'll leave, too! I dont drink coffee, but Brew does serve it, and it smells amazing. They only use Direct Trade sources, so you can drink guilt-free.

They won my patronage with their smaller but well-chosen beer list. It includes my personal favorite, Duvel, along with heavyweights like St. Bernardus and sometimes even a short selection of frambois.

The Staff:
Laid back and happy to help.

The Info:
Thursday nights has Twilight Notes at brew putting on Shuffle, a live DJ event that draws plenty of people. In addition to the Himmarshee location, there is one in Victoria Park, but who cares? Happy hour on beer ends at 8 most nights. There's a frequent drinkers card for coffee only, which I entirely disagree with; it should include beer as well.

Recommended For:
Peoplewatchers, laid-back discussions, contemplations, after-hours business meetings, beer sampling, pre-club meeting point, etc.

Directions [MAP]:
From 95, take Broward to Andrews and go south to Las Olas. Make a right and park in the garage of your choice, since very limited street parking is available. Walk to the West side of the railroad tracks and follow them south towards the river until Brew is on your right.
