5 Best Craft Breweries near New Buffalo

“1st time in went with 3 couples and we all agreed the food sucks, way to expensive. The menu was wack. 2 Italian subs, 2 cokes 45$. Never again.“

“We had an outstanding experience at Ghost Isle Brewery! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and the service was fantastic.

A huge shoutout to Janelle, who took great care of us all evening. She was friendly, attentive, and had excellent recommendations that made our visit even better.

Everything we ordered was delicious. The pulled pork was packed with flavor, the smash burgers were cooked perfectly, the salmon dip was one of the best we’ve had, and the pretzels were the perfect appetizer. To top it off, the pear cider was refreshing, and the beer flight was a great way to sample several of their brews.

If you’re in New Buffalo, Ghost Isle Brewery is definitely worth a stop. Great food, great drinks, and even better service. We’ll absolutely be back!“

“Great spot for a quick brew.“

“Mangata Beer Co. in Union Pier is a really nice spot and a great addition to the area. The space is honestly beautiful without trying too hard, lots of warm wood, leather seating, and those seafoam tile details that give it a coastal feel but still keep it feeling modern and comfortable. Most definitely aesthetically pleasing.

It’s the kind of place that works whether you’re just popping in for a drink or settling in for a while. Everything feels intentional, but still relaxed and easy.

The beer itself was excellent, well made, balanced, and easy to enjoy. There was a nice variety, and everything we tried was solid.

Service stood out too. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made the experience feel welcoming without being overbearing.

Overall, it’s an easy place to recommend and definitely one we’ll be adding this to our rotation for future visits to the area.“

“This is a great family owned spot. Great beer, great company. I am glad I didn't skip this place. Thanks again. #GBO“
