5 /5 Robert Kelly: Piedmont Brewery & Kitchen is the perfect college-town spot — whether you’re a visitor, local, or Mercer student. It’s got that ideal mix of great atmosphere, great food, and plenty of space (even for large parties).
I’m very particular about brisket, but I have to say — this was probably one of the best I’ve had in Georgia. Perfect balance of juiciness, fat ratio, and tenderness. I paired it with their potato salad, which tasted fresh, homemade, and creamy without being too heavy. My group also tried the crunchy turkey sandwich — just the right amount of spice, fresh, and delicious. Every single plate at our table was excellent.
Our bill for four people was about $70 with tip — very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.
The vibe is unique: upstairs feels like a lively pub and kitchen, and downstairs you can check out the brewery itself, plus there’s an arcade that adds a fun touch. Between the atmosphere, service, and food, Piedmont Brewery & Kitchen is an absolute win for Macon.
Highly recommend!
