Noting the venue’s location at the AvidXchange Music Factory near uptown, the travel and entertainment website calls VBGB an “essential stop” for those headed to a concert.
“But even if it was located next to a ferret-breeding center (good lord, no!), this sprawling beer garden would be a must-visit,” the write-up continues. “Beers flow from 30+ local-centric taps into 12-, 18-, and 34-ounce glasses, the latter of which could seriously hinder or help your abilities to play giant Jenga, Connect Four, and chess.
