12 Best Craft Breweries near Framingham

“Good dinner live music we had fun.“

“My husband and I stopped by yesterday to check out the place and had a great conversation with the owners, Mike and Andrew, about their business model and their plans for the future. Very excited to see what comes next. We each had two pints, I had the Czech black lager and my husband had the IPA and the West Coast Pale Ale. All delicious! Mike also gave us samples of some of their other tap offerings which I liked (saki & yuzu, and hard tea). We will definitely be back!“

“I was in Framingham from NJ for a family party and was directed by the Aloft hotel staff to dine at BJs Restaurant and Brew House just a few steps from the hotel. After unpacking, my dtrs and we make our way there. The friendly front staff greeted us and seated us where we can see the game. Now the music was flowing and vibing and I found myself dancing in my seat. In about 1 minute our waitress Gwen came to take our orders. She was professional, friendly and very helpful with suggestions. I chose the Brisket bacon burger and sweet potato fries with a Shirley Temple. Oh my god!!!! What a masterpiece of a meal. I had to speak to a manager to praise them and Jackie was walking by. I was so excited when I stoped her she thought something was wrong. I explained the experience I was having and thanked her and asked her not to take this off the menu ever. Then after a few more wonderful bites, manager Tim comes by to check on us. I invited him to sit so I can also explain to him the joy my mouth and I was experiencing and thanked him also. He told me there was a restaurant near me in Tom’s River, NJ and that elevated my joy. Thank you Gwen, Jackie, Tim and staff for the best restaurant experience I’ve had in a long time away from home. You have a wonderful establishment, staff, food and welcoming dining experience. I will be back every time I make a trip into Framingham AND will go to Toms River, Nj when I get back home to New Jersey. People run to PJs, you will not be disappointed. Look for Gwen, Jackie and Tim and let them know I sent you.“

“Farthest Star Sake is a novel and entirely gluten-free addition to New England's robust brewery scene. Sake isn't just for sushi! Come check out the fun and fresh varieties currently on rotation.“

“7th Wave is a great local brewery that has a good range of brews on hand. However, they also have some of the best pizza in the entire area. Great Neapolitan-style pizza, seriously. Been a fan for years and the beers have only improved.“

“Tucked inside a beautifully repurposed old firehouse, Clover Road Brewing is the kind of spot that makes you want to become a regular after just one visit. The atmosphere is equal parts laid-back and cool, with the historic charm of the building adding to the overall experience. Let’s talk beer—because their sour was one of the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly balanced, flavorful, and refreshing without being overly tart. It’s clear they take pride in their craft. Beyond the beer, the rotating food truck lineup throughout the week is fantastic, but today’s pizza truck stole the show. I tried the pastrami pizza and now it’s all I can think about. Crispy crust, melty cheese, and perfectly seasoned pastrami—it was absolute top tier. If you’re looking for a chill place with excellent beer, great food options, and a unique setting, Clover Road Brewing should be your next stop. This place hits all the right notes.“

“Fantastic beer!!! Nice people, and of course I like the comedians.“

“Whipped Feta Dip was incredible. Nashville Chicken Sandwich with hot honey was great. My wife had a Fancy salad with grilled chicken that looked too healthy for me, but she raved about it. Service was great, everybody we interacted with was smart, friendly and upbeat. I'm eager to return.“

“Delicious coffee with enough food options to fill your belly. Beers are also delicious and perfect for an afternoon drink - especially when the weather allows you to sit outside on the patio.

Lost shoe deserves extra kudos for always having fantastic seasonal decorations“

“The staff at CraftRoots is TOP. NOTCH. This place is run by a great group of people and the live music is phenomenal!“

“We saw Carbon Leaf at Lookout Farm and the staff there were amazing and fast. The food was awesome!“

“The beer is great, However, with the current set up of just 2 people taking orders (both food and beer) and an extremely busy place, I was in line for 15 minutes to close out my tab and get my last beer. It would be nice to have a separate line for food orders and extra help with the beer orders.“
