The Neighborhood Brew - Hoover, AL Restaurant Photography / by nikonic1976@yahoo.com

Let’s say that you want to meet up with some friends for some casual conversation. One friend wants a micro brew beer, the other is a wine connoisseur, and you just want a latte. In the past you could have gone to a brewery to sample a fine ale, but the wine and coffee options are rather poor, some wine bars have a few good beers but may not have coffee at all and certainly not an espresso. Starbucks for beer and wine? Afraid not. The solution to all of your gathering challenges has been created in Hoover! The Neighborhood Brew is a new cafe that offers a wide selection of local and foreign microbrew beers, on tap and in bottles. Their wine selection is impressive, and they offer fantastic coffees and espressos. Of course there are sandwiches, pastries, and various other cafe foods as well. Owners Craig and Michele, who moved here from Wisconsin, have done an amazing job of creating a warm, comfortable ambiance to match the variety of beverages and food they offer.

I was very excited to create a Google Maps Business View virtual tour for them. As a new business it can be tough getting the word out, and even tougher to make an impact on Google. The virtual tour I created will help them rise in the search results and help them stand out from the Starbucks and regular brew pubs. I love to see new ideas from local businesses and I enjoy spreading the word to help them out! So go by and see them, have your preferred choice of beverage, and tell Craig and Michele that I said hi. You can learn more about them on their Google + Local page and website.
