The Casual Pint At The Grove - Hoover

This place is fantastic. They have a great variety of beers on tap, canned beers, bottled beers, and wines. The food is really delicious. They also have board game nights, which are a lot of fun. The staff is fantastic. I discovered this place in April and have been eagerly looking forward to coming back.

I attended the restaurant on board game night. They were hosting a local board game event team and a local D&D creator, which I found to be commendable. Supporting local businesses alongside another local business definitely earns them 5 stars in my book! The bar also offers themed trivia nights, a wide selection of locally brewed beers on tap, and the food was satisfying. In summary, I left the restaurant feeling very pleased with my overall experience.

I don't usually drink much, so I often feel out of place at bars. However, I felt right at home at the Casual Pint. The atmosphere has a cozy coffee shop vibe with comfortable seating and an outdoor patio. They offer a wide selection of drinks for those who do enjoy alcohol. For non-drinkers like me, they have a few soda options, although I wish they had more diet soda choices (my only complaint). The owner and staff are very friendly. I especially enjoy their Tuesday board game nights. I never thought I would feel so comfortable at a bar, but I found my spot at the Casual Pint!

I cannot stop raving about just how great a time we had here last night! I didn't get all the names of the crew working but Jeremy, the kitchen staff, the spunky ladies behind the bar all top notch people! We got there around 10pm ish and though the kitchen was soon closing they rushed our orders out hot, fresh, and tasty! They just truly seemed happy to be there and also welcome us in, which meant so much as we'd just left a place that was...lukewarm, at best. We will definitely be back to try more beers and just hang out for trivia and everything else they want to put on! Edit: came back today (6/17) and found their bbq pork sandwich. Most divine bbq in Bham true hidden gem!

Good beer selection, trivia was fun and seemed well run (third party) and they have a speaker for outside trivia players which is essential. The food was not good, the wings were really gummy and I got the wrong order (bone in instead of boneless) but they were slammed for trivia so I get it. The dip trio was fine but the chips tasted like they were bought at the dollar store. Idk other than the beer selection, very very average. Staff was nice though!
