Latitude 42 Brewing Co. Review

Good food, great beer, fair prices. Gets busy during dinner but moves along smoothly. Overall I am big fan.

Went here with some coworkers one evening on a busy night and our service was impeccable. Very unique drinks, too! Definitely a must-try. A great place to go to when you have a lot of people in your party!

Always so good! Consistently great service and food

What a great place to meet. We had a private room where we had really good food and a nice place for education. Our waitress Monica and manager Julie were always asking us if everything was ok and going well. Wonderful wait staff, very friendly and attentive. I would suggest Latitude 42 for any event. Thank you Rob from Bard for making it a fun night.

Nice place with great beer. The pizzas and the fried chicken are recommended.

Good beer, good food and good service. Latitude is often busy and for good reasons. It is one of the better eating establishments in Portage. Portions are usually good and the fair is a couple steps above what you might expect at a bar. Smoked brisket is a component in many of the options and there are also healthy options as well.

Best place in Portage! I'm here for business over the next few months from NJ and I'll be here very night, every time!

Got the Umami.... looked and tasted like it was made for my Bday...

We sat at the bar, the bartender was pretty slow, she didn't come by very often and it took about 20 minutes to get her attention as everytime she walked by she looked down. All we wanted were some menus. It was about 4 pm and they were not even crowded yet so not sure if this was a fluke but I've seen her working there before.

The pretzels and beer cheese however are amazing and I highly recommend them to anyone stopping in.

Relaxing
Great beer
Super people
Loved the atmosphere

Service food and football watching situation very very poor. Has gone way downhill.

I absolutely love outdoor seating! Decor, ambiance, wait staff, beer selection, homemade margaritas fantastic!

Nice selection on Menu...anything from fish, American, homemade black bean burger to die for!

This place never disappoints. Food, service, and beverage are always out of this world!

Your server, Nadyia is the best server I have seen in years. She was so on the ball. We had a few questions and she told us the answers before we could even ask. The good is great and so is the beer. With a few questions yo Nadyia she can hook you up with the right beer and the perfect dinner.

Not a very allergen friendly place. A person with allergies can get by certainly but getting by shouldn't be the standard. I ordered a dairy free Caesar salad (since indicated on the menu it can be ordered vegan) and was served wet Romain. Server and manager offered to bring another dressing but both were vinaigrettes which disagree with my palette. I paid full price for it.

As always, the food, service, and beer were good. However I was very disappointed in the side salad that I ordered in place of fries for a $2 upcharge. I had no problem with the charge, but the salad was tiny! I will ask more questions before making a substitution of this nature at this restaurant in the future.

Call ahead if you plan on going late. They often don't stick to their posted hours.

Great food and amazing beer. Seasonal food menu is worth a look.

My first glass was extremely dirty. I was really nice when I asked for a clean glass. They brought me one back just as dirty. At the end of the meal I told the waitress about it and she told me sometimes their dishwasher does not do a good job cleaning. She still charged me for the drink that I only had a sip off of until I notice how dirty it was.

Most people love this place - I think it's alright. I seem to always either have bad service or order something that doesn't come out right. I recommend the shrimp tacos - can never go wrong there!

The customer service is wonderful! The food is excellent and the beer is spot on perfection to the pallet! Thank you so much for all of your hard work. We love having you just down the road from Kingdom Sports and enjoy visiting you often. Your staff work so well together and it appears to be a wonderful work environment for them. That is so great to see.

This place is fantastic. They did change the menu and get rid of the Dearborn ham sandwich. :(

Very impressive! I'll be back! Great beer, great food and the service is even better! Would recommend to every one and anyone!

Nice place with a good ambience. Nice beer selection. I recommend the arugula pizza, chipotle chicken tacos and cajun fries.

Great selection of beers. Always something new on tap. Top notch appetizers.

It is a typical craft brewery but the have gluten free options. Even french fries that they cook in a separate fryer!!! It is a treat to get french fries when you have celiac disease.

Great beers!!!! Great service! Got a flight and let the brewtender pick the 6th beer and I liked his choice the best!!!! Didnt eat food, but it looked good!!!

Great place..our server Calvin was amazing...thank so much you made our experience worth the trip. Food and beer worth the 1.5 hour drive

Very slow service, waitress not very attentive to our table. Disappointed won't go back.

Burger was not well done as asked for but service people were great.

Good beer, great veggie burger. Will be back again

Fantastic food and great local brewery. They support local businesses as well.

A good place to try different types of beer (made in the place)

I had been once for Wine & Canvas with a friend last year and had a good experience so suggested to family that we try Latitude 42 Saturday, 3-30.
Was busy but we're seated right away.
Very much enjoyed the beers that we chose. We do want to beg the brew master to please try brewing some Gluten-free beer for those needing it.
The special was a trout dish served on a potato pattie with asparagus. Good presentation & was really tasty.
Ryan was a great server & a manager visited to ask how meal was.
One tip... Lemon or Cucumber in the water or put it through a filter as it tasted very chemically treated.
We'll be back.

My family and I just had Latitude 42 for the first time since Covid. The food was even more amazing than it was before, the whole staff was friendly as could be and everyone was cleaning, sanitizing, and wiping everything down as needed. We thought it was going to be a 25 minute wait for a table but we only waited 10 minutes! (We arrived around 5pm on a Saturday.) What an absolute delight of a time for my family and myself after all this time. Thank you latitude for a wonderful first time back experience. 5 stars all around.

10oz steak entree was tasty. Service, although not busy, was slooow! The atmosphere is noisy. Waitress was not very attentive.

Wow...another bad experience at Latitude...if Barbie the bartender is serving all the kitchen help alcoholic beverages...who is available to serve the paying customers? Yup...no one! Seems like ya'll are losing money...hope you are...Off to better businesses...and WAY BETTER service! Piss off!

Food was amazing, love the Beer Cheese and pretzels. Staff was helpful and service was great. Saturday night wait was long and there was a misunderstanding around wait times, but Sue and Monica did a great job of making our supper enjoyable. We will definitely be back!

I typically haven't liked many of their beers, as I am not local to this area, but their brewpub is really nice. The beers they have that aren't distributed to us are really good. Food was good.

I took my dad their after we went to the air zoo for a bite and a beer. He's more of the bud light guy and our server was great on getting him something he liked. food was amazing and the servers are great. Will be back.

Love the soft pretzels and beer cheese! And brisket tacos Yum! We live in Florida and whenever we cone to Kalamazoo we always come here!!!

Came in for lunch, food was great. The waitress Brynn was awesome and gave great service! Would go again

Just stopped in for lunch and had excellent thin crust pizza. We ordered one with pepperoni, mushrooms, red peppers, black olives, and onions and it was fabulous. The service was prompt and our soft drinks were kept filled. I accidentally overpaid and later called to clear it up. It was handled courteously and without any difficulties. Welcome to Portage Latitude!!!

The host couldn't seat us right. He tried to get us to share a tabel with another group. Small groups were sitting at Large tabels and large groups were sitting in small sections. Wait staff took over a hour to bring are food. Food was cold when we got it. Very expensive for Mac&cheese , Burger and a steak. 1 glass of wine and 2 soda's was $106.00+tip. I think I will try some place else.

Very good burger, friendly staff. A destination that is worth the stop

We came in on Sunday 4/14/19 for lunch. The hostess seemed rude, took us to our seat, plopped our menus down and didn t say a word. The staff seemed more interested in talking to each other at the bar than in taking care of their customers. Anytime we asked for something it seemed like an inconvenience. We said thank you every time our server brought us something, and he gave no response and quickly ran back to the bar to talk to the hostess and other employees. I ve had service like this here in the past, which is why I am always hesitant to come back, but we thought we d give it a try - with so many choices in the Portage area, I won t be coming back to a place who hires employees such as these.

Food was great,service was great and beer was great,was good lunch with friends
Out door court was cool,will be back soon

Soooo not worth the long wait. Rude hostesses . Ignore people until you figure out you have to go to the counter. VERY LOUD!!! Uncomfortable seating, food was ok, but our waitress was NOT good. Pretty much ignored us. I asked for a beer, it sat at the bar for 10 minutes until someone else brought it. Meal wasn't as I ordered, she never checked back. Had to flag down someone and when I asked for dressing I NEVER got it. We won't be back.

Great food and great value on beer for the cost. Had a burger, and it was cooked perfectly. Server was great. She (Rachel) was patient with our questions and helpful in tailoring our experience. We had an unmentioned food allergy (our fault, not theirs), and she helped us resolve it and went above and beyond her duties. She rocked. Would recommend to anyone. I would gladly return to try some other items on their menu.

Good food, good beer, reduced menu due to covid, but still a good variety.

Went there last night for dinner, got a flight, soup and tacos. The beer was good(as usual), the beer cheese soup was good but the chicken tacos were dry and not very flavorful. Our server was nice but super forgetful and slow. The hop garden was beautiful. It even had a fire pit and games. Overall, good experience but our server needed more training.

Best food ever! All local sourced. Can't get any better.

This is a really cool space for lunch and dinner, food was excellent and beer selection was diverse. Definitely worth checking out!

Very aWeSoMe food. Our waitress, Heather, did a wonderful job serving us - much appreciated - thank you Heather!

The best ham sandwich I've ever had. Great beer too. Excellent atmosphere.

Today was my first time at Latitude 42 and it was the best dining experience I've had anywhere in years! Extraordinary service and amazing food!

The service for our table of 16 was fantastic. The food was very good and the outdoor area is so much fun.

I always enjoy dining here. Wait staff is great. Haven't met a bad one yet. Yummy burgers, tacos, fries... Great menu! And the kids play area really helps with the kiddos.

Great food and beer selection. They make some of the best quality beer in kzoo.

One of the best best meals and customer service I have ever experienced! Brandon was our server and he was excellent! And we didn t catch his name but the gentleman at the front counter that checked on us a couple times and sat us was incredible! He gave me a recommendation on a beer and it was delicious. I had the diablo chicken with sweet potato fries and it was by far one of the best meals I ve ever had! 10/10 will absolutely go back! And will tell friends about this place!

I went for lunch, and ate from their lunch menu. I must say that it was awesome. I tried their lunch version huskie pizza, and beer cheese soup. The pizza tastes wonderful, and the toppings which were pepperoni, ham, and sausage. All were cooked very well. The soup was phenomenal. They use their lil sunshine beer for the soup. You could taste it, but not overpowering. I will definitely be returning with the family for a dinner some night, and a drink too. Lol. Prices were very fair, and not over pricey at all.

Went last night for the first time...not happy! Got the mustang burger..dry bun..burger had no flavor...the tomato was the end cut with the stem..the fries were greasy and tasted terrible. Not good for a $10 burger!

I was passing through on I-94. Definitely worth a five minute drive from the interstate.

Very relaxing atmosphere and super friendly service. My server, Nicole, was excellent.

Great for lunch. $9 deal til 4. Get the shrimp pizza or smoked mac and cheese + a side salad or soup. Add on a scoop of local ice cream for $2! All the food was great.

Nice wide variety of their and on tap for ~$5 to $6. Ask for a few free samples to figure out what you like...

The staff there is absolutely amazing. Our server, whose name I wish I could remember, was a rockstar and the manager was also really nice! Hands down the best staff I've encountered in a long while. Definitely will visit more often!

Just had a couple of great salads out on the patio!

It's a great place to try different beer. They mostly serve wide variety of IPA's such as imperial, American, Indian etc. This place it's always busy and your order may take some time to arrive at your table. Though the waiting is worth it as the food is really tasty.

Really good burgers and the smoked wings are cooked to perfection. My favorite thing about the wings though are the pickled vegitables that comes on top of them. My favorite burger is the Brewhouse. The fried egg mixed with the arugula make the flavors of the burger and the grilled bun just an unforgettable taste memory.

All right, all right, all right. Party at the moon tower!

Yummy food, great service. Play place for kids. Wonderful outdoor eating area. Gluten free options. Favorite restaurant in Portage!!

Great food, great beer, great atmosphere, and great customer service. Couldn't ask for more. This is one of our regular spots to eat on the weekend.

Great food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff! They understand gluten free and took great care of us. The cider is yum!

Some of the best food I ever had,waiters and waitresses where very nice,and very good food
