8 Best Craft Breweries near Lewiston

“Excellent location right on the Niagara River, and If you've never been to the Griffon then you should definitely check it out! All the food is good, but their specialty is the chicken fingers..gotta get those when you come here! Plenty of outdoor seating too!“

“Went Friday evening based on a reco from a friend who loves it here. The food is mainly BBQ, ribs, pulled pork, brisket, etc…. The food was very good and reasonably priced, we paid about $130US for 3 ppl and we left with a ton of extra food! Portions were huge. Brisket was awesome, ribs were amazing, chicken wings were large but ok, I am not a huge fan of smoked wings. Chicken and pulled pork was also very good. Loved the cornbread, coleslaw and beans.Service was good at first then our server sat at a table and talked to a coworker for 20 mins while our beer was empty, eventually came over after we were almost done eating and we ordered another round. They also added a 20% tip on our bill for 3 ppl, we tip well so this wasn’t a concern just never seen that on a small table before, seemed odd.All in all the food was great and prices were also so we will be back!“

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We were visiting from out of town with our dogs. Not many breweries allow dogs, but they do. Anyways, we arrived just as they were about to close due to a power outage. They still gave us a warm welcome, cooked us some incredible beef on weck (best I've ever had!), and happily served us beer. By far the most welcoming brewery I've ever been to. I can't recommend enough!“

“Absolutely love Counterpart Brewery. The food is great, Joe is an excellent creative chef and the beer is amazing. Do yourself a favor and pop in to this chill location. The craft beer is cold, tasty and fresh. Menu items are so delicious and trendy. You will love it. Cheers!“

“I was out with 3 other ocals. We stopped in after a couple hours of wine tasting in NOTL with a great tour company called #NiagaraCustomtours Our server was Avi. (hopefully spelled right) He may have been the most personable server I have ever encountered! What a pleasure to meet him and spend some time with him. He is so witty and such an asset to your establishment. Honestly whoever hired him knows what they are doing! We will be back. Not just for a beer. Really, just to see Avi again :) Also the wings were fab! Thanks ?“

“I recommend everything about the Grist. From the moment you walk in to the beautiful decor and the entire atmosphere. The friendly helpful staff who will answer any questions regarding the drinks and menu. The menu covers all types of foods and they are totally willing to alter for people's allergies etc. They change the menu choices sporadically and everything is delicious . It is truly an enjoyable dining experience. Our Christmas Party was in the loft upstairs and the attention to detail and the food was amazing. The Loft itself is a perfect place for smaller functions - cozy and intimate. The owners are the nicest people I have ever met.“

“This was our first time. Im not a beer drinker and they had a great selection of other options. Food was delicious and service awesome! Definitely a favourite local find!UPDATE: 2024... this has become our go to local spot for yummy food and great service. The various theme nights weekly are great. A huge patio in summer is really awesome.“

“Came in for date night, what an amazing vibe here tonight. Had the Chili Garlic Shrimp Pizza from Patina Pizza. Absolutely delicious. Great beer selection. I personally feel they have come a long way with the beers and now are up my alley. Great music from the DJ. The service from Anna was Absolutely top notch and should be recognized, the chefs in the kitchen are amazing and put together a great menu. We will be back!“
