13 Best Brewpubs near New York

“Great tap/can/cellar list. Food is solid and staff is great.“

“Recently stopped in to kill some time, and this turned out to be the whole highlight of my NYC trip that day! I previously have had Other Half brews before and since this was conveniently located by where I was headed I added it. I had 3 different beers, the Broccoli, Bacon and the BA Sugar cereal and all were amazing. Staff was super friendly and they had some great tunes in the background. Highly recommend!“

“Small but great and unusual selection of beers. 12 taps of beers you won't find in many places. Plenty of cans if the taps don't excite you. A good wine selection if someone in your party doesn't want beer. It can get very crowded very quickly, as it is a small space. Lots of sports on the many TVs. Nice staff!“

“Had a great lunch here recently, after a visit with friends a while back when they had a mariachi band! I was impressed by the menu, our food was delicious, and the service was friendly and fast. Everything tasted so fresh. I ordered fish and chips, and was happy they had sweet potato fries! Will def be back!“

“Came here on a beautiful spring day and had a great date night. My partner loves beer, and he really liked the brews here. I don't drink beer, but they have great cocktails too! It is huge! Lots of seating, so good for big groups. Everyone was really friendly.“

“So excited to see this place open!“

“The nachos here were so delectable I literally had to put my hair in a bun before digging in! 😂 I stumbled upon this place by accident while looking for tacos and walked into a loud, jumping atmosphere. Despite it being packed, my son and I were seated right away.
​Our server, Eliana, was amazingly friendly and wore a really cool hat! The food took a little while to come out, but the place was crowded, and let me tell you—it was absolutely worth the wait. My nachos were an easy 11/10! My son’s chicken tenders and fries were tasty, though the waffle fries were a bit on the salty side.
​The only cons were that I expected the bathrooms to be a bit cleaner, and they seemed a little understaffed. There were more bussers than servers, which made the overall service a bit slow. Still, the food and vibes mean I’ll definitely be back!“
