Brick Store Pub
Decatur District, Decatur
Bar in Decatur, United States
Why go
Brick Store Pub is the easy Decatur Square pick when the plan needs flexibility more than ceremony. Choose it for a casual group meet-up or a low-pressure drink before deciding on dinner; pick The S.O.S. Tiki Bar for a more defined cocktail night or Chai Pani Decatur when food is the main event.
About Brick Store Pub
Brick Store Pub in Decatur is best described from the verified basics: it is a casual venue with evening hours on Monday and 11:30 AM openings Tuesday through Sunday. Use it as a low-ceremony Decatur option when the plan is flexible, rather than building expectations around unverified details like a specific menu, seating setup, price point, or drink program.
The useful planning facts are direct. Brick Store Pub opens at 4:30 PM on Monday and runs until 11:30 PM most nights, with later hours on Friday and Saturday. Because the dress code is casual, it fits easygoing plans where the group wants a simple Decatur stop without needing a dressier setup.
Use it as an easy Decatur anchor, not the whole itinerary
The main reason to consider Brick Store Pub is flexibility. If you are comparing nearby options, The S.O.S. Tiki Bar, 9292 Korean BBQ, Chai Pani Decatur may fit different plans depending on what kind of night you want. Brick Store Pub is the simpler pick when the verified draw is a casual Decatur venue with broad hours.
For repeat visits, treat it as a practical Decatur stop rather than a venue defined by unverified specifics. It is open until 11:30 PM Sunday through Thursday, except Monday when it opens later, until 12:30 AM on Friday and Saturday. That schedule makes it useful for plans that may start earlier in the day Tuesday through Sunday or continue later on weekends.
Better for casual groups than polished date-night planning
For a date, Brick Store Pub makes the most sense when the tone is intentionally relaxed. The verified dress code is casual, so it is not a venue to frame around formality. If the night depends on a specific atmosphere, menu, or service format, confirm those details directly before making it the centerpiece.
Groups can also use it as a direct meeting point because the hours are broad and the dress code is easy. There is no verified price, seating count, menu format, or reservation detail here, so the safest way to judge it is by schedule and casualness rather than by a specific spend target or dining format. If you are comparing other nearby possibilities, Smiley's Burger Club, 9292 Korean BBQ, Chai Pani Decatur are other Decatur names to consider.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Brick Store Pub reads like a neighborhood institution: unpretentious, well worn and deliberately curated. The interior’s worn wood and long tenure — the bar has anchored Court Square since 1997 — give the room a lived-in, slightly rustic character that resists trend-driven minimalism. Instead of feeling staged, its back bar and tap program announce a point of view: serious about Belgian ales, barrel-aged stouts and rare imports. The result is a charming, quietly authoritative pub that feels both of the neighborhood and essential to anyone who cares about curated beer rather than passing trends.
Best For
This is a go-to for casual hangs and low-key after-work drinks, especially for people who take beer seriously. The focus on deep Belgian selections and rotating rare taps makes it well suited to solo visits at the bar, conversations with friends who appreciate specialty pours, and small groups hunting for something uncommon. It doesn’t present as a loud, sports-driven scene or a minimalist bottle shop; instead it feels like a neighborhood anchor where experts and curious drinkers alike settle in for thoughtful pours and easy conversation.
Ordering Tips
Lean into the bar’s curatorial strengths: ask for Belgian ales, Trappist and abbey selections that the program highlights, and look for limited imports and barrel-aged stouts when they appear. The tap list rotates, so check with bartenders about rare American craft releases or special bottles they’re holding. Treat the back bar as an editorial statement — if you want to sample the place’s character, start with one of the Belgian anchors or a notable barrel-aged stout and let the staff point you toward current highlights.

Bar context
How Brick Store Pub compares in Decatur
Brick Store Pub is the flexible Decatur choice: easier to fit into a loose evening than 9292 Korean BBQ or Chai Pani Decatur, both of which make more sense when dinner is the center of the plan. If value means not overcommitting the night, Brick Store Pub has the edge. If value means a fuller meal, cross-shop those two first.
The S.O.S. Tiki Bar is the better pick for a more intentional cocktail mood, while Brick Store Pub is better for a casual meet-up that can stretch or end quickly. Smiley's Burger Club is the stronger choice when the group wants a burger-led stop rather than a general pub plan.
Gene's belongs in the comparison only for readers willing to leave the immediate Decatur set. For most Decatur nights, Brick Store Pub wins on convenience; The S.O.S. Tiki Bar wins on atmosphere; Chai Pani Decatur and 9292 Korean BBQ win when the meal matters more than the drink stop.
