37 Best Craft Breweries near Medford

“MBC is a great place to hang with different selections of well crafted brews ! Fun, layback atmosphere . The staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!“

“Deep Cuts is a great little spot to eat and catch a show. The food is good, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The live space is small and intimate. There’s even a selection of vinyl records available for sale in the taproom!!!! I highly recommend it.“

“Been drinking Idle Hands beers since they were in the original Everett location (I think it was a slasher movie film set). Quite simply, the best beers you can get unless you leave the continent and head east, and they’d give the European breweries a run for their money too. Top notch!“

“Went to get lunch when we got to Boston. Was close by our hotel and I love craft beer so was excited to try something local. Split the burger for lunch which was excellent. Tried three different beers and enjoyed each one. They didn’t do flights but do offer small pours so it made it easy to try different brews.

Venue was nice as well and easy to get to in the Seaport area.“

“First visit, so we got two of their specialty flights, each containing four small pours of their local beer, chosen especially for summer time. One flight was IPA focused, and had a range of moderate hoppiness, along with one juicy, in-your-face over hopped wonders. The other flight featured a delicious raspberry sour beer, plus an addictive "brewtini" beer cocktail. Service was so friendly and welcoming, and I liked their outdoor beer garden. We brought lunch from a neighborhood restaurant.“

“Widowmaker always has a solid selection, with that comes an amazing seasonal rotation and a few surprises mixed in. I prefer IPAs and Sours and Widowmaker does not disappoint. Dogs are encouraged!“

“Attended a class pop event here today and it was fabulous. Beer Selection was awesome.“

“Mancini Soul Project definitely recommends night shift brewing. the best people, staff and brews!!“

“This place is unique in that it is one of few spots in town where one can order espresso drinks in the evening and sit and hang out. (And this includes espresso martinis!!!) However, lately the espresso machine has been shut off at 7pm, so be sure to place your order well before then.“

“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Castle Island Brewing is one of the busiest and amazing brewery. The beer collection is amazing specially the IPAs. They do have food and they had one of the best spicy wings in town for sure. It was filled with college kids and it took a while to find seating, but mostly you share table with others.“

“A fantastic family friendly brewery that is truly owner operated, and always a delight. Twisted Fate has been my go-to brewery for the past two years, serving up a variety of fantastic beers.“

“Excelente experiencia! Recomendado!“

“Definitely worth checking out if you’re at Marina Bay or in the area. Aside from being a prime location, this is one of the only places in Boston that is dog friendly! You can bring your own food, order from the shops nearby or support vendors at BRB. Their tap list rotates often so there is always something new to try. Additionally, they always have different events going on and varying vendors at the brewery. The vibes here are unmatched, especially for the area ( Q can be a bit sleepy). We need more places like BRB in Quincy.“

“Good beer, good times and good friends“

“It was a great vibe !! I’m not a beer drinker but these were amazing !! Loved the food, bartenders were friendly and food was delicious !!!“

“The place itself is really cool and chill. Cornhole, TV with N64 and 4 controllers with a number of party games set up to play, and good spicy chili for your nacho bar snack. Unfortunately the beers were all on the lighter side. It is a good place to chill and have some light beers but I enjoy more full-bodied beers. So I don't think I will be coming back for the beers.“

“We love Drawdown! It’s a great (inclusive+safe) community bar that’s walking distance from home. I have loved trying all the different beers, sodas, and the crispy seltzer. There are a solid set of core beers and then fun seasonal beers on rotation (some of the fall beers have been So It Goes - a cozy cinnamon beer and White Girl Wasted a pumpkin ale). I personally loved the orange soda when it was on tap (it gave aperol spritz vibes), but the root beer is also delicious. The staff are all super welcoming and friendly, and there’s an awesome calendar of events (chaotic good bingo nights and retro video game nights as examples). Drawdown highlights women’s sports, but is also a place to catch international soccer games or Ru Paul’s Drag race. Would recommend as a place to stop by if you’re passing through, want to catch a specific game, or if you want to find that neighborhood bar where you’ll feel known.“

“We had the Biria chicken tacos, ordered a 2nd round cuz they were so good! I had a strawberry margarita - was delicious. Vibe was great around 1100 after a concert at the House of Blues. Will def be back !“

“Jake and Jeremy did a superlative job taking great care of us as customers with excellent service, organized, efficient, and food quality outstanding. Highly recommend the restaurant and servers Jake and Jeremy. They deserve a raise.“

“Honestly the alcohol/drinks are really good here but there were waaaay too many children running around when I went. At least 6-8 kids, I’m not sure why people are bringing children to a place where people are getting drunk, but it definitely ruined the atmosphere“

“Great open space with a patio area and a rooftop area. The craft brews are great and the charcuterie options were spot on.“

“Perfect cider with no carbonation or added sugar. Love it!“

“Had such a great time this past weekend with my parents visiting in town and taking them to show how much we love the Harpoon experience. Wanted to give a special shout out to Edgar, who really made our experience top notch and memorable. Edgar is a top tier employee and made us feel right at home. Can't wait to go back!“

“This is a great place for beer. Prices aren't cheap but I guess that's just Cambridge MA thing. My favourite beer - Buzz Factory. I haven't tried the food here but I suppose it won't be bad. They have huge space which can be a great place for socialisation and for hanging out with friends.“

“Great beer and outdoor space“

“We were looking for a quick place for a bite on our recent trip to Fenway. We stumbled upon this cool, open air place and our expectations were exceeded. Service was friendly and speedy. We ordered a lot of the shared plates. The lamb lollipops, sliders, guacamole, charcuterie and wings. Drinks were great. A Little bit loud, but it exudes a celebratory vibe. A good find when in the area.“

“Very well made beer, nice diversity in styles (NEIPA, sour, stout and even a couple N/As) Relaxing atmosphere.“

“Maybe my favorite coffee shop of all time (and I really love coffee shops). Their drip coffee is phenomenal and their espresso is delicious as well. Breakfast sandwich comes on English muffin with avocado and is 9/10. By night, it becomes a brewing company with excellent beer and excellent hazy IPAs. Given that I moved in around the corner, I have been going at least three times per week. LOVE IT.“

“Edit: I went on a Saturday night, but there was apparently a festival going on that highly impacted my experience. Updated score for accuracy.

Beer was good. Staff was good. They say the close at 11. Last call is at 10. They kick you out at 1030.“

“Great beer, great pizza, staff was excellent“

“Great Neapolitan style pizza pop up, I ride miles and miles only to have some at one of the breweries they partner with“

“Loved the atmosphere,good food and great beer. Great service!“

“My colleague and I dropped in for a bite during a work trip, and we couldn’t have been happier with the food, beer, and service. The bartender, Liam, made our tough travel day so much better. Next time I’m in town, I’m making it a priority to stop here. Keep up the amazing work!!“

“Good location! Good beer!“

“Lots of fun it was a great time“

“Best onion rings I’ve ever had. Convenient to Charles Theatre. Nice selection of their own brews. Fair pricing too! We will go again for sure!“
