It's a pizza kitchen, brewery and music venue all tucked inside its premises. The Iron Bridge Icehouse next door, which Neighbor's calls its "sister brewery", makes the entire place stand out as a destination. Neighbor's serves up an extensive menu of pizza and pretzel bites that pair well with a cold beer. At Iron Bridge you can get a tour of how their beer is made onsite...
