It all started with three coolers and a couch . . .

Many of you have been coming to Bottleworks for years and remember our humble beginnings. We would like to thank you for your patronage by welcoming you to be our first guest at our new location. It is called Brouwer's Café, a Flemish Grand Café located at the center of the Universe, ( 35th & Phinney in Fremont) a unique restaurant with over forty taps, two hundred bottled beers, wine (yes, I said it) as well as a definitive list of spirits from the house aperitif to the after dinner scotch or grappa. Brouwer’s Café will offer it all, from mid-morning coffee and jazz to late night live music, pomme frites and beer. Brouwer’s menu will offer the regions finest seasonal selections from mussels in hop court bullion to mouth watering kaas croquettes.

Due to open by year’s end (Dec.?), Bottleworks will keep you up to speed on the development and e.t.a.
