Ludlam Island Brewery

I have to say that the new place is so nice and so big - so it is a great place to bring people cause you will always find a spot to sit - however I will always miss the smaller place where you just always felt welcomed. Now is it expensive - 100% and this is why we do not get to go visit as often as we like - just extremely pricey for such small liquor pours in Woodbine. The food has always been on point so they WIN there. The service (We love Kris and Becky (Come Back Becky)) has always been on point also until our last visit. I am a massively huge Sour drinker and last time we came in of course it had kicked - as I was looking for suggestions - I had to ask for a can pour and just kind of sucked that it was not even something that Staff Member even suggested knowing that I said I LOVE their Sours and they had the cans in the cooler behind them and tons of 4-Packs for Sale. Won't fully hold a grudge on this hiccup cause I know Becky and Kris would have made sure that didn't happen. P.S. - Glad they finally brought in some color outside of Brown and Orange for apparel.

Stopped in for some dinner and beer on a Friday night and the place was packed. Granted there was a Philly's game on which may have helped sales a bit. Ordered some brisket and sweet and sour carrots which was tasty. While service was overall great, one less star for service was because there really is no table service. There is a food line and a beer line that you order your drinks a d food separately. Drinks are served quickly and you walk back to your table. For food, they give you a pager that goes off when food is ready. Self serve as far as getting your own napkins, utensils, condiments and all. It's not really a big deal, but it was almost as if you where at a fast food counter ordering and brining back your own food and serving yourself. Of course, you are suckered into tipping on the full meal, yet you are doing most of the work. Overall, a great spot to grab some beer, eat some food, and have a good night. Endedup drinking the Green Gobbler IPA - (New England Style IPA. Smooth and sweet overripe pineapple, peach, and mango give way to an aroma that’s just as tropical as where the hops came from. This IPA solely utilizes the New Zealand hop varietals Nectaron, Wataktu, and Motueka. Celestial aromatics of peaches, citrus, and lime which transcend to a dank and resinous finish. Truly a vacation in a glass)

First time here - everyone was so friendly and helpful and the food was amazing! I got the Keilbasa Sando (delicious!!!) And my friends were really enjoying their beer selection. Great atmosphere! Will definitely come back when I'm in the area.

WOODBINE: Ludlam Island Brewery has a new location and a much bigger space and we were thrilled to be invited by Renee, the Marketing Director, to check out all the things this brewery has to offer.

One change from their former spot is that leashed and friendly dogs are now only allowed outside, but with a good reason: they now serve food! The outdoor patio is spacious with 3 areas: a sunny spot on the patio with corn hole games, a tented deck with more tables, Adirondack chairs, and some shade, and also an outdoor bar.

Have someone go inside to order and choose from a huge beer menu full of variety. We tried all of their featured beers: Oktoberfest, and 3 different pumpkin flavored beers. Did somebody say pumpkin spiced latte beer? You must order the “Becky!” ‘Tis the season after all. Uniquely, they also offer cocktails using liquor from local distilleries. For wine lovers, there is a nice selection of red and white from local vineyards, and they also serve up non-alcoholic options. We love having so much to choose from.

Food is available with an onsite kitchen serving up BBQ and sandwiches.

They have a great merchandise area with t-shirts, beer glasses, and even doggy gifts like a water bowl, bandana, and treats!

The staff could not have been more welcoming; special shoutout to Lorraine for being so sweet and helpful.

Awesome spot to watch a game, listen to some music and have an ice cold beer. Their beers are fantastic and always rotating. I’d suggest to stop in to see what’s on tap

Great place, good food. Service is usually very good. Hiccups in service sometimes. But....well worth the visit.

Pretty nice spot. No table service which was weird. You have to get your own plates, silverware, water, and condiments. You order food and drinks from registers then find your own seat. The band was pretty good, but unless you are ok the far corner, it’s very loud. Food was okay. The brisket cheese steak could have used more cheese as it was on the dryer side. The Mac and cheese, pretzel, and tots were all basic and remade stuff from Sysco or whatever food distributor they use. I figured they would at least add some of their own flavors to it to make it more special, but they don’t. I’d go back, but order something else. All of the staff were very nice which can really make or break a spot.

Service is great, atmosphere is nice including the live music which was good and beers are pretty good but the food needs an upgrade. It’s like cafeteria food. Lacks flavor and presentation was horrible I’d go back but would definitely not go to eat

We were in ocean city for a day trip and wanted somewhere fun to have dinner on the way home and found this place on google- what a GEM!

Big, nice, clean place on the inside with a lot of great beers on tap and GREAT bbq and very nice staff. Really enjoyed my flight and our pork sandwich and brisket cheesesteak. Wonderful outside area with lots of seating including covered seating, an outside bar and corn hole. They had music all day. It is also dog friendly and they even had water bowls out for dogs. Very kid friendly too.

We really enjoyed it here and like it even more than Cape May Brewery! We will definitely be back, highly recommend!
