Bricks Bar & Grill

With a rotating selection of 60 hand-picked beers on tap, Bricks Bar & Grill is an acclaimed craft beer bar in the heart of downtown Cedar Rapids. In addition to an elite beer experience, Bricks offers a full menu featuring quality meats smoked over woodchips.

Our bartenders are required to maintain a working knowledge of craft beers and can help you select a brew perfectly suited to your tastebuds. As you enjoy your beverage and the aromas emanating from our smoker and scratch kitchen, you'll find yourself absorbed in the ambience. With walls of aged brick, the building was constructed over a century ago, and has been lovingly filled with antiques and other curiosities to create a unique, nostalgic atmosphere.

On weekends, guests can enjoy the intimacy of our upstairs bar, which features 12 beer lines of its own. At any time, you may be greeted by our working owner, who makes regular appearances as a bartender and can often be spotted cleaning beer lines or informing guests about the beer and food selection. His presence serves to maintain a close and dedicated staff, so that you are always sure to see a familiar face when you stop in.

For out-of-towners and other visitors, Bricks is your destination for a unique beer selection that includes local and hard-to-find brews not available everywhere. We round out the beer experience with delectable foods, a friendly, knowledgeable staff and a cozy atmosphere, so that everyone who stops in will have a time to remember.
