6 Best Craft Breweries near Buford

“We love elixir! Great atmosphere and drinks! We visited here recently with our 9 month old and shared that we wished they had high chairs with the owner- he purchased high chairs before the conversation was over!! The best! Looking forward to coming back soon!“

“GREAT beer selection and variety (NOT IPA-dominated) that is on regular rotation. Their Cream Ale and Hefeweizen are both excellent. They also have seltzer and an excellent root beer! Family-friendly and VERY dog-friendly (must stay on leash). The owners and staff are top-notch and make everyone feel like family.“

“Crooked Culture has become my go-to spot since they opened in the City Center, and for good reason. Living just 6 miles down the road, I've made this place a regular part of my routine, and every visit feels like coming home. Trisha, Jonathan, Keith, and Patrick greet me by name every time I walk in - it's that kind of place where you're not just another customer, you're part of the family. What sets them apart isn't just their amazing craft beers (though they're knocking it out of the park in that department). It's how they've built relationships with other local breweries, creating incredible collaborations that showcase the best of our local craft beer scene. The location is truly the crown jewel of Cumming City Center. Whether you're relaxing in the indoor space with the garage doors thrown open, taking in the view from the upstairs patio overlooking the center, or enjoying the side patio across from Myth & Legend - there's always a perfect spot to soak in the atmosphere. Watching dogs play while sipping on a craft beer just hits different here. As you drive into the City Center, Crooked Culture immediately catches your eye - it's become one of the most iconic spots in the area. You can't miss it from the street, and that first glimpse always draws people in. It's more than just a brewery; it's become a landmark. Patrick and his family took a huge risk opening this place, and as a small business owner, that's no small feat. They've created something special here - a place that brings people together, serves exceptional beer, and adds real value to our community. Now it's our turn to support what they've built. Thank you, Crooked Culture, for showing up every day and making our community better, one craft beer at a time.“

“some of the best beers I have ever had!“

“We love the atmosphere at Stillfire. We have been planning to bring our dog there since before we adopted her. My kids enjoy the root beer and butter beer - they hope that they’re always on the menu. I like the selection of different types of beers. My only feedback would be that the prices are creeping up and up so much that they’re nearing Taco Mac prices and that place is out of control.“

“Hall and Hound Brewing is a great spot for the whole family. The atmosphere is welcoming, and everyone who works there is amazing and genuinely polite. It’s the kind of place where you feel comfortable the moment you walk in.

The food is excellent, and the fish and chips are some of the best I’ve had anywhere. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Between the great food, friendly staff, and family friendly environment, this place is an easy recommendation.“
