This place is great. Simple delicious menu, which was reasonably priced. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about all questions my husband and I asked. Ahh and the lighting was perfect... Not too dark and not a bunch of bright lights. Definitely will be back!

It's a restaurant built around gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. You literally can not dislike it. And if you're lactose intolerant there are other options... Like getting really sick because you decided to eat one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches I have had the pleasure of eating. I'd recommend the number one, number 6, or number 7. But you really can't go wrong. Tröegs nimble giant pairs well with most sandwiches.
Edit: their cheesecake is fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Please read this before eating at The Lockview.

After eating at The Lockview, I was approached by a homeless man. I have had something like this happen many times before, and I am not naive. This man had tears in his eyes and said "I am homeless, I am cold, and I am hungry." I offered to buy him a meal if he'd sit down and eat it. He eagerly accepted. 

I walked him into The Lockview and sat him at the end of the bar. I walked up to the first waitress and asked what the cheapest meal was. She said a #1 is $6, I handed her $8 and told her to keep the rest and to please take care of him.

The owner or manager walked up to me and asked if the guy at the end of the bar was with me. I said yes, I just bought him a meal. He said "that better be to-go, he isn't eating here." I asked why, especially because I paid for a meal for him. He said "I have kicked him out of here before, I know what you're doing, but you're feeding a stray cat. If I let that guy eat here, people won't think this place is cool anymore."

So he compared a human being to a stray animal, refused to let a paying customer eat in his restaurant, and values being cool or trendy moreso than helping out his fellow man (a paying customer)...

I won't ever spend a penny there again

Great service.  Yummy food.  Awesome beer.  Kid friendly apparently.

11/11/17 Update - 2nd visit.  Totally different experience.  20 minute wait which was not too bad for a Saturday.  But the 45 minutes it took to cook 3 grilled cheese and a hamburger was unacceptable.  If the grilled cheese had been phenomenal, I could understand it.  It was mediocre at best.  Service was worse and I had to ask for the server.  The excuse the server gavefor the late food, was they have a small kitchen.  No apology.

I usually give good reviews.  It takes a lot to get me upset as my sister worked in food service for over 20 years.  I try to give them the benefit of the doubt.  This time it was just bad.  We won't be back.

Great selection of beer, awesome grilled cheese, and excellent service. I brought a largish group on a Monday, and it was relatively quiet, which we all appreciated. Everyone loved it. I'm told the cocktail menu is good too.
