16 Best Craft Breweries in Traverse City

“Great brews and friendly staff! What could be better except free beer 🙄🤩“

“I tried a flight of beers at Tank Space and found the beers quite nice. The staff was nice enough, and the place was comfortable and casual. The kellerpils beer was my personal favorite of the bunch I tried. With the burger place next door, this is a great place for a beer; the dynamic between these neighboring stores is great. It’s definitely worth a stop.“

“Earthen Ales is a pleasant place to enjoy a beer. I stopped by to try a flight of beers and really enjoyed their darker ales. It feels pretty casual and welcoming, and I like how it’s kind of hidden away back there. I’ll have to look out for their beers in my neck of the woods.“

“Stopped in for a quick beer. The IPA on tap was good but they have a small line up of beers for how big a space it is. Inside nice concrete floor. Forward thinking bathrooms for men to change babies was a great touch. Has an outdoor patio area that looked like it could use a little tlc though...there was a surprising amount of space inside but I think it could be better spaced as the hightop tables seemed congested to me. Simple fixes. Just takes effort.“

“This was my second visit and it was as good as the first. The beers I have had (primrose, four o'clock and marzen) have all been great, all of them worth another glass. Strong contender for the best brewery in TC. It has a neat indoor / outdoor atmosphere. Currently (10/15/2025), there is no food, but you're welcome to bring your own.“

“As experts in breweries we found this to be one of our favorites out of 75 different venues we have visited in the last three years! Can miss place for beer and mex food“

“They have great beer there and a number of pinball machines. The owners are good people who have been in the brewery business for close to 30 years. My favorite 3 beers there are Gin Joy, CEO stout and cake walk. They have some good IPAs which I have been known to drink occasionally“

“Great product with unique flavor. Love finding it locally!“

“Great place. Simple menu but everything we had was very good. We specifically had the chips and quest, chicken taco signature style, pork taco signature and veggie signature. All were good to great with chicken and pork as excellent. Beer selection is vast. There is a board up on the wall near the register we missed until round two.“

“If you want just great beer, no crazy flavors, this is the place. There is no bad beer there, and the food is bonkers. Bonus, tons of live music.“

“Ribs were good and those tots!“

“Awesome people and vibes!! Inclusive and friendly, food is great and there are delicious healthy options as well. Beers are local and on point. We are regulars now - the Bamber beer is great. Pricing is very fair and portions are substantial.“

“I went to Farm Club while on a ski trip with my friends and we just loved this place! It has an amazing atmosphere and wonderful food and drink options.“

“Great little place in Traverse City! They have a good variety of tasty beers and the pizza was delicious!“

“Had great service tonight. Waiter gave my indecisive wife multiple samples. We split the lamb burger and banh mi. The lamb burger is excellent, the bahn mi’s sodium content was off the charts and super gross. They can’t all be zingers! Still love this place, check it out!“

We went to dinner at North Peak.
The pork chop with cherry sauce on top was scrumptious.
My wife had the delicious crusted chicken sandwich.
Our kids were happy as pie with their pizza and burger.
Our server Jack is a seasoned pro who was kind and attentive.

Nice Job North Peak! What a great place.
