16 Best Craft Breweries near Rock Island

“Ive been coming here on and off for years, the bartenders are always friendly and professional and good at their jobs, they always have great beers on tap, and an overall good atmosphere, also I have never once witnessed an incident of indecent drunk behavior here! 🙏“

“HA. I can't believe I haven't already reviewed Wake Brewing, my favorite brewery in the Quad Cities. They make solid beers across the styles and I've received great, and unpretentious (but knowledgeable when asked) service from over a dozen bartenders over the years. I especially love their hazies and stouts, but love their lagers when that's what I'm in the mood for. Their new new Sunday special that includes a Bloody and a sizable sidecar for a paltry $5 is the best quality Sunday drink deal I know in the Midwest. Pair the Bloody with their Masa of Puppets corn lager for an amazing combo recommended by the last bartender I visited with. Pet friendly on their patio, no everyday food option but you can BYOF. Don't change a thing Wake!“

“During our visit to the area we visited both locations, great craft beer, excellent bartenders! We enjoyed visiting with Teddy at Moline location. I see why the food was so excellent! Your passion for beer and food is exceptional! Thank you!“

“This place opens up at 2pm but must have opened on the day I visited since there were already about 20 people in the brewery when I showed up at 2pm for the FIFA World Cup semi final match. This brewery has more beers on tap than the two brewerys near it (Stompbox and Front Street). This brewery also has food but I didnt order any to comment on it. The strawberry gose was the best beer I tried. Wonderful service by the bartender and I would definitely revisit based on the service and sports viewing provided.“

“We love the environment of Five Cities and how welcoming the staff is. Wish the 50% app were still a thing from Central Standard.“

“Beautiful place with AMAZING food, Chef Juan is the best. You can't go wrong with anything he prepares!“

“We recently had a "private party" at Adventurous to celebrate a retirement. We have been coming to Adventurous since the taproom was opened. The vibe is amazing and the staff is fantastic. Jami was so great to work with in getting the party scheduled and figuring out how we wanted to set things up to the beer. The communication was excellent and we felt so comfortable that the day would be just we wanted it to be. The day was perfect (we drove over 2 hours as well as did all of those invited to join us) and cannot say enough about Jami and team at Adventurous.“

“I LOVE that you don't have Miller lite-bud light-coors lite on tap! only your own beer!“

“I visited on July 19, 2026 driving through from Wichita, KS. The atmosphere was fun and relaxing. The server was polite and friendly and the beer and food were amazing. I had the BBQ Pulled Pork with slaw sandwich. Very tender and great flavor. I will definitely stop in again.“

“I'm an early bird, so I can't speak on the late night crowd. One of the bartenders, Bill, is a great guy to conversate with. That's why I go to bars, to talk to people. He doesn't disappoint.

The place is clean and tidy. The entrance is easy to miss. I'm not stingy, find it yourself, it's a great nook!!“

“Our bartender Nikki was great! And the food was awesome. High recommend Cajun pasta & cosmic cow stout beer.“
