10 Best Craft Breweries near Bay Shore

“I love Take two this is my favorite Bar ever“

“The beer was really good!“

“I had my daughter’s Jack & Jill Baby Shower there on Saturday 7/25/26 at the Bay Shore location.
105 people attended , and I have to say Mike Grilli did a phenomenal job taking care of anything we needed during the party and while we were setting the room up. He and his crew were eager to help!
He asked us often is everything OK and if we needed anything let him know. Also his staff/crew were awesome! We got a lot of compliments on the quality and taste of the food! The food was delicious!! And, they kept it coming! The variety of beers, wines, vodka seltzers, hard ciders, vodka for simple mixed drinks and a surprisingly good bourbon (and rye whiskey) really seemed to please everyone. I would definitely have another party there and recommend to friends & family!
Thank you Mike for a great party!!“

“This is one of my favorite breweries in the area, maybe even on all of Long Island, and we spend a lot of time at breweries!
I love the little outdoor area. There are umbrellaed picnic tables, adirondack chairs, and simple cocktail tables with chairs.
The beer is really good. There is always a variety from IPAs to belgiums and fruities. I believe 8 choices. Now I also see cocktails on their menu. Though as much as I am a vodka martini fan, if I can have a good beer, I always opt for the beer. But, I just overheard the guy from Sand City Brewery commenting to Melissa the bar tender, that she makes the best cocktails. So you can't not have a good night here!
My fav this summer is the Summer Seance. Its a hazy double IPA that is not too sweet, not too hoppy, and not heavy. I have never been disappointed by any of their beers.
Lindenhurst train station is walking distance. And we order food from down the road and eat at the picnic tables. Very nice evening!“

“Awesome place. Happen to be visiting the area and found this brewery. Will definitely visit this brewery again when in the area. Owner and Chet (the dog) were great. Beer was good. Atmosphere was cool. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. Especially liked the Amber and Black IPA“

“Awesome place great knowledgeable staff, great mead. Please do not go there I do not want to wait on line. It is excellent.“

“I came here one summer afternoon not long after it rained. There was some sort of group activity inside so I grabbed a flight and sat by the picnic tables, enjoying the afternoon. There was some good food at the food truck as well. Overall I enjoyed the beer and vibes.“

“Delicious coffee and sweet treats!“

“Excellence service - great atmosphere-“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Great South Bay Brewery, Scott Palmer, and the staff! I recently hosted a surprise retirement party for my husband, and as someone who is definitely not a surprise party person, I was incredibly nervous. From the moment I started planning, Scott made the entire process easy and stress-free. He answered every question, reassured me, and made me feel completely comfortable.

The atmosphere was exactly what I was hoping for—cool, relaxed, and welcoming. It honestly felt like we were hanging out at someone's house with friends rather than at a venue. The chill vibes made everyone feel at home, and my husband was completely surprised!

On top of that, the food was excellent, and our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed it. The combination of amazing service, delicious food, and a laid-back atmosphere made for the perfect celebration.

If you're looking for a place to host a special event, I highly recommend Great South Bay Brewery. They helped create a day our family will never forget, and I am so grateful for their kindness and professionalism. Five stars all the way!“
