12 Best Craft Breweries near Ann Arbor

“Fantastic spot with lots to do and perhaps the best part- a beautiful black box theater to enjoy improv comedy, stand-up and more!
My dream came true when I went to Ann Arbor for my annual visit with the fam and there was actual great improv comedy happening at a fabulous brewery! My whole family came for the musical improv jam (and those that tired of it were able to go grab drinks at the bar and hang and chat in the spacious lounge/bar area).
They have classes, jams (for anyone wanting to try or watch improv games), stand-up comedy, and improv comedy like “Who’s Line is it Anyway” - so fun!
I was able to go back and catch a show on a Friday night ($15 pre-sale— cmon that’s a great price to try something new!) and watched hilarity ensue!
Looking forward to coming back the next time I’m in town.
If you’re in Ann Arbor - DEFINITELY recommend! Support local comedy!!“

“If you haven’t been here and you enjoy good beer. You need to come here. They make the best beers in all of the lower peninsula. I’m a craft beer guy and I have made it a point to visit every small brewery that I can while out and about in our great state. Mothfire Brewing is by far one of the best breweries I’ve ever been to. The staff is amazing and the beer is excellent. Stop in, you won’t regret it.“

“Great beers, food and staff!!!“

“All of our food was soo good. Good people working. Very friendly.“

“We loved this restaurant. We were able to sit outside on a beautiful autumn October afternoon. Chairs were a bit uncomfortable. \n\nOur server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. She made suggestions on entrees as well as drinks. I went with one of her recommendations. \n\nThe food was excellent! Cooked just right, all 3 of us were happy with our meals. Prices a bit high, but not a surprise in AA. \n\nParking on the street. We only had to walk about 2 blocks. Restaurant is in a mix of businesses, bars, bookstores, so a nice area to shop, people watch, and just walk.“

“Went for a lunch with a friend and I brought my dog so we could go on a hike. Our waiter was super nice and brought out some ice water for her. The food was delicious and they have an inexpensive treat menu for pups as well. Definitely recommend!“

“It’s the definition of “hidden gem.” I have been before, but tonight we went to a concert there and it was the best thing I have done in a long time. They don’t have food, so I ordered carry out from somewhere else and picked it up on the way, but we ate there and Stony Lake’s beer is top shelf. The band went on at 8 and, again, it was spectacular. FWIW, we saw Hey Mavis.If you enjoy quality beer and quality music, there is no where better in southeast Michigan than Stony Lake Brewery. We’re lucky to have this in Saline.“

“fAntastic spot! great everything. comedy night rules!“

“Great service. Can’t say enough about the great staff.“

“Great food Beautiful stained glass Great service Beautiful indoor and outdoor setting Beer selection is amazing ! I highly recommend Salt Brewery 🍺🍻🍺“

“Stopped in on a Friday night. It was busy but there was plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors.

You either order from the bar, or they had QR codes to order from your table. After submitting a order from the table, one of the staff brought our beers within a couple of minutes.

They don't do flights, but do offer taster size beers if you want to create your own version of a flight. Rainbow IPA and Space Witch were very good.

Kitchen took about an hour to get us our food, so if it's busy and you're in a hurry, don't expect your food to arrive quickly. The burger I had was good however.

Will definitely return when I'm in the area again!“
