38 Best Craft Breweries near Richmond

“great place I will go again next time I'm in Richmond“

“Great experience here. I ordered the poached peach granola bowl - the portion was huge, delicious, and very reasonably priced. Iced latte tasted burnt though. But most importantly, they are pet-friendly. My friend, her puppy, and I sat on the patio on a rainy October day. Their patio is covered and heated, which is great even in lousy weather.“

“Really fun place to hang out and chill that the surrounding neighborhood meets up. The food is decent, but the rotating beer selection makes things interesting. Servers seem they enjoy working here and crack jokes with you. Highly recommend“

“Perfect spot for thirsty travellers. We didn’t try any food but they had some reasonably priced bar snacks. Service was excellent and friendly. The brew is made from honey which makes it gluten friendly. We really enjoyed the tasting flight and the atmosphere.“

“A "must visit" for anyone interested in craft beer brewing, Terminal City sits in the niche between serving the home brew market and being a specialist microbrewery. A wonderful selection of ingredients is complemented by a wide range of beers and wines. The staff are very helpful and friendly, giving advice on how they could tailor production to specific requirements.“

“Recommend the Oak Stout, Truly spirited“

“Awesome! Great view, will be perfect for summer.“

“My friend and I stopped off here for some refreshments during our bike ride around Ladner. It's a bit off the beaten path but not too far, as it's a working farm. Great place to sit, relax and enjoy the delicious craft brew. Lots of seating, covered and uncovered. I got the flight for $12, which includes choice of 4 beers.

Good friendly service. Will have to stop off some other time to try their food.“

“We were here within an hour of landing (from Australia.) Staff were friendly and courteous. I enjoyed a 'Greg' West Coast IPA, of course. A little disappointed with the T-shirts; I am looking for tasteful examples that mention the brewery name.“

“Intimate and fun! Great atmosphere with really good beer!“

“always a great place to sit and have a beer with friends. Doggie friendly too.“

“This is a great brewery taproom. Rustic vibe with wide paneling and bar, welcoming helpful staff, great beers and other drinks. You can choose your own beers for a tasting flight, which isn't possible at other taprooms in the neighbourhood. And the food is excellent! The pies are amazingly tasty and very well worth the wait...I had one and had to order another!! And enjoyed another beer in the meantime. Worth a visit and a revisit!“

“Great atmosphere and staff. And delicious beer 🍺“

“Great beer and such friendly staff!!“

“Very tasty experimental beer. Went there as a venue to visit on the Yeast Van Passport I purchased. Tried grapefruit radler (really taste the fruit), the red hot ale (very spicy but well blended), Turkish delight ale, and vanilla whiskey stout.
Nice vibe, but standing room only as you're really in the middle of a brewery.“

“Huge thanks to Red Truck Beer for hosting an unforgettable Beer & Burger Night fundraiser! The atmosphere was amazing, the staff went above and beyond, and the support for our cause was incredible. We raised $3,000 for SickKids Foundation thanks to their generosity and the amazing community that showed up. Can’t recommend this place enough for great food, great beer, and even better people.“

“**Edit: To the owner, thank you for addressing my comment. I really like Container Brewing. **

I love this place. They have been excellent hosting events for fundraisers, parties and more. But the other night put the sourest of tastes in our mouths.

There were multiple tables still sitting in the bar, and one server was insistent that our group, having just come from the sauna experience (also incredible), "skidaddle". She was drunk herself, and one of the rudest people I have ever met in the industry.“

“We enjoy dropping by Bridge Brewing to pick up a six pack of beer. They have great snacks and good service. We also enjoy their restaurant on Lonsdale know as the Bridge Deck. Really looking forward to their new tasting place opening soon. Brian“

“Great vibes and good beer here. They also have a patio as well. It’s a great location in the Mount Pleasant area.

The place also has a separate retail store next to it, so you can buy their beers to go. I can definitely recommend their no.7 saison. It was very satisfying.

The food is alright, not the best. It’s still good but it could use a little improvement. The nachos ingredients could have been distributed more evenly instead of piled up just on the top. The tacos seemed a bit dry. Perhaps some condiments with it would help? 🤷🏻‍♂️

But regardless the food didn’t discourage me. I was here for the beer and the beer is indeed good 👍“

“Been to the concert series 3 years in a row and will continue to go“

“Food for one $50ish including tip.

Postive: Fantastic food. Fantastic beers that pairs well. Nice, clean, spacious decor. Outdoor seating available. Try everything..

Neg: sometime its gets so busy that they forget to make what you ordered (twice in one night). Waited 2 hours for one time.

But it was nice of them to give you free drinks for their mistake.

Food for thought: really good hispanic food, and gets busy quickly.“

“Hazy IPA was great. Pale ale was pretty good too. Sadly, no dark beers available. A couple of sour beers. Several lagers and an interesting beer that was mainly foam. They had a special for Monday with 25% off food, so we got pizza and a calzone. Both the cherry pizza and the calzone were very tasty. Five stars because the pizza was so good. Nice outside area was great and our server was wonderful. They allow dogs there, but there are strict rules.“

“A cool place to stop on the classic brewery tour in Vancouver is this fantastic spot with a great selection of beers (with a European flair), house-made wine, and cider. They also host cool events throughout the year—like the unforgettable Dead Fellows Halloween event and Krampusmarkt. It’s worth checking out! Currently, they have an amazing chef Doug Lee who makes the most delicious food. We go several times a week. Run, don’t walk there!“

“Love this new brew! Nice and smooth like a summer evening. Will be definitely enjoying more of these as we roll into spring and summer!“

“One of my favorite breweries to pick up from the liqour store in Alberta so I went out of my way to check them out on vacation. Beer is even better on tap. The sweet heat pizza was absolutely awesome. Service was quick and friendly. Would love to come back one day.“

“Fabulous IPA along with other selections!“

“Such an awesome experience here. They have ample parking and plenty of patio seating. Their interior is so chic, with an actual freaking food truck inside the restaurant where you can see the folks working hard to make your food.

I initially thought the place was only going to have beers which I’m not a fan of, but their cocktails are so damn good.

Great food, (spicy chicken is to die for) great servers and such a nice, warm place to hang with friends or take people.

Prices are a yee bit high, so keep that in mind.“

“The atmosphere and service at this brewery create such a cozy and relaxing vibe, making it a perfect spot to unwind. They offer beer flights at a really affordable price, which is great if you want to try a variety of their beers. You can get a flight of 4 different beers for just $10, which is a fantastic deal considering the quality and selection. It really adds to the overall experience, making it both enjoyable and budget-friendly.“

“Love R&B for the atmosphere and awesome beer, have been coming to this place for ages. This is just a warning - THE CITY IS RUTHLESS ON PARKING TICKETS HERE! There is only 1hr parking on the entire block, so don't stay for more than a pizza and a pint! Seems unfortunate for the business.“

“First time here, before heading to a show at the Wise Hall. Ordered the muffuletta Sando and chips and queso. Excellent portions, we didn’t run out of queso before the chips were finished, which is always a pet peeve of mine. The muffuletta was huge as described in the menu, and was amazing. We’ll be back!“

“Wonderful spot for a beer. Great atmosphere and music, sourdough pizzas are killer. Sometimes you go looking for a gentrified hipster spot to get away from all the riff raff and heroin induced crime that riddles Vancouver, and this spot does it. I didn’t see a single homeless person while I drank my beer, it was awesome.“

“Amazing patio, great selection of beers. Love this place.“

“friendly… good cocktails and beers“

“Thank you helping me look for my keys“

“Came here for dinner in May recently after spending the afternoon exploring the city.
Thought it was just a normal pub and did not expect this place to be so large with multiple storeys.
The atmosphere was nice.

Food was nice and service was good.
There is a large selection of beers but the stout was not available.“

“Went to Vancouver Brewing Company on Saturday early evening prior to the Whitecaps game. We were sat in the dining area which was very nice, the noise level increased gradually over the time we were there but was not too intrusive. As it was towards the end of the happy hour we chose from the happy hour menu. We shared the nachos and had beer and wine to go with. The nachos were quite tasty and the serving was sufficient for both of us to share. We would return to Yaletown Brewing Company again to enjoy more of the main menu.“

“Fabulous IPA along with other selections!“

“Super cute little spot off Southwest Marine Drive that is charming, welcoming and has some nice brews and bites. Dog friendly which is super awesome (they have a dog wall!).
Sorry the photo has half eaten and half drank beer, I had to dive in before remembering to take a picture haha“
