15 Best Brewpubs near Lakewood

“This place is sooo fun 🤩. You can pour your own beer and do something fun like different flights. This is how it works - you go up to the front desk and get a Tapsters card. Then you keep the card in the slot and put your beer. The faster you pour, the less the foam! Theres free popcorn and you can get food from Voodoo sushi next door! At the end you can drop it off in the slot boxes up front with the tip signs. The operation game is definitely missing some bones - please replace them, a lot of people like that game. The only thing we didn’t like is that you have to tip given the fact that you’re basically picking up and putting your dishes away, and doing basically everything yourself. You have to check out on the tablet upfront with the Person right there handing you the tablet. It’s a little awkward if you did not tip. Please get rid of tipping, I’m sure the people working there are salaried! Other than that, the place is fabulous! I would’ve given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the weird tipping!!“

“Wow. This place was recommended to us as my husband and I were looking for the perfect cheeseburger for our wedding anniversary. The staff in the kitchen … you guys are so amazing, warm and gracious. We will be back. The Tinman! That was one extraordinary burger. And the fries, chicken tenders are out of this world with all those sauces. Can’t thank you enough. Also, the interior vibe and feel of the place is wonderful. A MUST if you’re in Cleveland or visiting. ❤️“

“We recently hosted my daughter’s graduation dinner at Whistle Taproom and had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. We had around 35 guests over a 3-hour event, and everything exceeded our expectations.

The food was amazing, beautifully presented, and consistently fresh throughout the evening. The staff provided outstanding service and made sure our guests were comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. What truly stood out was the communication — both leading up to the event and during the dinner itself. The team was responsive, organized, professional, and incredibly easy to work with.

Their event packages were also very affordable, especially considering the quality of the food, venue, and service provided. Planning a graduation celebration can be stressful, but they made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. We received so many compliments from our guests and would absolutely host another event there in the future. Highly recommend for graduation parties, family celebrations, or private events!“

“We absolutely loved this venue. It was such a charming and unique place to have our wedding. Shannon, Kat, and the entire Great Lakes Brewery staff exceeded our expectations and helped make our special day complete. It was our first there at the venue for an event and we were completely blown away as were all of our guests. I would highly recommend to anyone considering a venue in the Cleveland area. - David & Andrea“

“We came in on a Thursday night as a large family, as we were all in town for a family event… there were about 20 of us. Their seating rules weren’t very clear as we talked to a few different people and seemed to get a slightly different story each time. It wasn’t a very big deal though, we hung out in the bar area for about an hour and then got a couple of tables hear each other where we all sat.

The menu is really nice, loaded with so many appetizing things! I wanted to start with a side salad and ordered that, but unfortunately it never came. I did get their spicy French dip, which was a special and it was decent. The onion rings were amazing, so were their baked beans. Service was decent for a group our size.

Overall, it was a decent visit.“

“Zak our server was incredible! Very personable and incredibly fast and efficient. Thanks for making our friends bday party great!“

“Never disappoints!! Love this place. Great food, great everything! I love how their menu changes every few months. Although they are a well known brewery the cocktail list is always amazing also always changing. I go out of my way to come to Market Garden I'm here right now writing this review I never knew they had brunch!!!!“

“I'm from Detroit. My wife and I went to Cleveland 2 yrs ago and stopped at nano for lunch and loved it so much we had to go back. it took us two summers but they truly were my decision to go back. burgers to die for.“

“The food here is actual portions that you would find at a regular restaurant or eatery outside of an airport. There is obviously a slight price increase but for $17 their breakfast was a full sized nice breakfast. I've similarly had their other sandwiches and lunch meals. Beers good, people are nice. It's generally the only place I'll eat at CLE airport because it's not a ripoff.“

“Picked up some Lakeshore Lager from Meijer, good stuff ! Will definitely get more .“

“My new favorite restraunt. Whoever manages this place knows how to manage a restraunt. Our server was awesome, he did an excellent job. Checked on us the whole time. Its hard to get good service now a days. The food is amazing. We had the bison burger, shrimp and grits and fish and chips. Best Burger ive ever had, and I don't say that lightly, it was so good. Will definitely be returning.“

“The pizzas are very tasty!“

“Jess is an amazing waitress! Always makes sure my family is taken care of! Everyone working there is great and friendly!“

“Our favorite dinner spot ..the salmon sandwich, chicken sandwich and chicken salad melt are our first choices. All their soups.. and Irish Stout is excellent too.“
