Yelper Greg P., who reviewed Oakshire Beer Hall on September 14, wrote, "Been here twice and loved the beers and the people. I'm pretty picky on both counts. The food in the shared space is a great match to the beers."

Beerboy M. noted, "They have some pretty boring standard beers, but also have some pretty good featured/seasonal/on-offs. Their imperial stouts can be really good, their IPAs hit or miss, sours can be decent but not great and their public house pale ale is pretty interesting."
