Editorial Review for Gingerman – by Jennifer Robertson
In Short
Imports and domestic abound; more than 70 taps line the wall behind the bar. A friendly staff and comfortable surroundings offset the fact that the bar is located near trendy Uptown. Serving beer since 1992, the Gingerman also offers live music, wine tastings and cigar events. Picnic tables line the beer garden in the back, leaving ample room for the bands that play on Saturday nights.

I love this beer house. I have been displeased with the way it is being run on weekend nights, however. I was at The Gingerman Saturday night, 8/11, sitting outside at a table with friends at about 1:45 AM, when my waitress informs me last call will be at 2:00 AM. A minute later, a rude and pushy bouncer informs us it is last call NOW and that we have to get up from the table we occupied for 3 hours and move inside where there was no seating available. At 1:50 AM, he informed us that we had about 30 seconds to finish the drinks we had JUST purchased or he would be forced to take them and pour them out. I don't appreciate being forced to chug an $8 beer meant to savor I purchased 10 minutes PRIOR to last call. Management should set last call at 1:45 AM if they are going to have thug bouncers bullying patrons before closing time. The Gingerman offers an excellent selection of beer, however the quality of employees and their actions are a serious disappointment.
Pros: Good Beer
Cons: Crowded, Poor Service

We have been going to Ginger Man since it opened in Dallas in 1992. Besides the great patio seating on the front porch and the beer garden in back, we love the friendly staff and are usually greeted by our names. Only problem I have is the poor ventilation. The second hand smoke is terrible inside the bar, so we only go there on nice patio days! The beer selection is the best in Dallas, and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.
Pros: Great patio, fantastic staff, giant beer selection
Cons: smoky inside the bar, limited food selection, limited parking
