You love brunch.

We know this. So we decided to make it even better. The kitchen’s throwing together some of your brunch food faves with a beer twist. Just check out that menu above. Even a chicken & waffles sized for the kiddos. And since we think there’s no bad time for brunch, we decided to serve it all day on Sundays and then again on Mondays from noon to 4PM for you hungover industry peeps. Or just brunch animals who can’t get enough of it.

Burgundian Coffee & Waffles holds his Belgian-style waffle alongside his Belgian-style Tripel craft beer collaboration with Revival in Cranston.

With a Pop-Up from Burgundian Coffee & Waffles

One day we were brunchin’ hard on some waffles and washing ’em down with some of our tasty beverages and thought, damn this would make a tasty brew. So we called our homie at Burgundian Coffee & Waffles and went and dumped a bunch of their Liège-style waffles and Belgian pearl sugar into a batch of Tripel and boom, this magical beer was born. Being a Belgian-style Tripel we just had to call it Wafel too. Smooth and complex, it’s best enjoyed by those who love food and beer, both in quality and quantity and shared among friends. 

This golden deliciousness weighs in at 12% ABV and 42 IBUs. 4-packs will be available for the first time ever from our brewery on Thursday, January 24th at 5 PM. Burgundian will be taking over our kitchen that night serving up both sweet and savory waffle dishes to fill your bellies. Here’s a sample of their menu.

New Hours, New Menu, New Possibilities

We’ve officially expanded into the entire location at 505 Atwood Ave in Cranston. You no longer need to go downstairs to the Tasting Room since all the fun is now located on the first floor. But don’t worry, we’re keeping the Revival vibe and remaining true to our roots in the new space. So expect to see some big changes in the coming weeks.

All of the same can sales, taps, games, skeeball, and merchandise that were once available in the downstairs Tasting Room are now in the upstairs bar and dining room. We’re also able to add a few more rotating tap lines for new beers, flights, and eats. Check out our new food menu below.
