15 Best Craft Breweries near Wheeling

District Brew Yards Brewery •
700 N Milwaukee Ave, Wheeling

“Amazing brewery, definitely a must try. It's self-service so you can do small pours and taste as many as you'd like. Nearly every beer was phenomenal, I was especially happy with their unique brand of a Hefenweize called Chicago-Hefe. They have a huge selection. Plenty of outdoor seating and indoor seating. As a bonus the food there was also very good, the wings were cooked to perfection. Plenty of board games too for passing the time with friends and family. I'll definitely be back!“

“This is my new barbecue go-to in Niles. I live close to here, and it is so easy to just come over and have a drink. They host some events, including live music and a book fair. It is a great place to have a party, and just plain have fun. I personally recommend the brisket. The fries here are something to crave. It is in kind of an industrial area. But the brewery has an industrial vibe. I totally recommend this place for anyone looking for a bar/bbq kind of place.“

Biker Dude Smash Burgers was there, went to a 90 wait within 15 mins of starting up…. Would’ve waited 9 hours and been worth it!!! Must visit if in the Chicago area 🍻“

Buffalo Creek Brewing Brewery • $$
360 Historical Ln, Long Grove - 4.39 miles

“Buffalo Creek Brewing is a lovely venue. I went there during the pandemic with my bicycle club and enjoyed the food trucks and great brews. It was so much fun to sit outside with the heaters and catch up with old friends. They also have a private room you can rent, which is perfect for a wedding, party, or reception. The ambiance is wonderful—you feel like you're surrounded by nature, yet you're still close to home.“
