      Don't miss this tiny place in a tiny town. Big flavors, big personality, and great beer on tap! And all with local friendly service. The Detroit style pizza (we had the Motown) was so flavorful and the crispy cheese around the edges is the best! We also tried the Yo, Paulie, which is a white pie with soppressata salami, ricotta, mozzarella, Italian sausage, garlic, basil, and a drizzle of hot honey...yeah, amazing! We'll be back when in the area next time.

      I'm a sucker for good design and creative copy

      Pizza is always on point. I love the Mikes Honey on the pepperoni pizza. Best pizza around! Sundays 2 pies and a pitcher of beer $40.

      Motown Pizza: (5/5)

      Delicious pizza.

      Kiss the Cook: (5/5)

      Best beer I've tried in a long time. Would drink this any day.

      New Yorker add Veggies: (5/5)

      I'm not a big pizza person but I would add this to a Sunday night weekly pizza night. So so good.

      Customer service: (5/5)

      When they brought the pizzas out they asked us to check if the crusts were too done for our liking and if they were they would refire them for us. We wouldn't have even questioned if they were too done, they were perfect. They did reheat a little too done but still ate all the leftovers anyways.

      Easily could split one pizza, we had plenty of leftovers.

      Ambiance: (5/5)

      Will 1000% be back soon, with friends.

      OK where do I start. Excellent service I now have new standards for my pizza and my beer. I had the two stouts even had to go home with a growler had two pizzas and both of us were over-the-top. Happy with how delicious they were. What is hot honey I have no idea, but it literally Has to be on everything I have now lol. It was a 45 minute drive. It would've been worth a 3 Hour Dr.

      Moving to the small town area, I knew food options were going to be hard to find. Tucked away in the middle of nowhere in true Midwest fashion is this little gem. The few beers I sampled were really good and I should have got a growler. Service was quick, easy, and just all around great. This place has an urban type feel with a down home touch and a great place to gather with friends, just bring a designated driver and enjoy!

      My daughter & I were wandering through the Marion, Gas City, Fairmount area looking for Garfields on a Sunday afternoon & found Bad Bad Brewing. They were minutes from closing but the staff helped us select 2 tasty beers while our deep dish pizza was made. Such a fun atmosphere where the pizza & the beer take center stage. We Highly recommend it!

      Bad Dad distributes their beer in my area but Iv always wanted to experience the taproom and pizza. So I packed up my family and we took a little hour and a half drive to Fairmount. They did not disappoint. Looking forward to the next little trip down to Bad Dad Brewing!

      My second visit to Bad Dad was even better than my first. Just on the edge of town in what feels like a neighborhood, you'll find two great spots. We were meeting a friend so we decided on the family salad, bread, and pizza.

      It was their beach party night so they had Jimmy Buffett music playing, then live music, a special Hawaiian pizza, and plenty of fruited seltzers on tap. I was skeptical of pineapple on a pizza, but it was amazing. If they keep it on the menu it will be a big seller.

      We sat outside because it was packed inside. It is a popular place so get there early and get your food orders in too. You won't be disappointed with anything.

      They were well staffed so we never had to wait long for anything. There is plenty of parking, but again, it is a popular place.

      I can't wait to go back
