25 Best Craft Breweries near Bridgeport

“Good food and beer friendly people“

“We hosted the rehearsal dinner for our wedding here in September 2024. We had about 50 people and were able to rent out the entire indoor space. The owner and staff were very welcoming and accommodating with our menu and bar options. Planning with them was a breeze. We were very happy with the food. We actually had a difficult time hitting the minimum at the end of the night! We highly recommend hosting your private party at Chestnut Hill Brewing!“

“Excellent beer and food with impeccable service. I ordered a flight including blonde, session ale, West coast IPA, and brown ale. The blonde is light and crispy with a very light sweetness at the end. The session ale has the traditional bitter and hint of malt. This one finishes with what I describe as a dry tobacco finish. The west coast IPA takes me back to the great IPAs of the 2000s. This was such a treat. And the brown ale is perfectly malty. You have to love a good brown.

For food, we had the wontons with a dill sauce, Buffalo cauliflower, and a chicken sandwich. All tasty, well-prepared and quality ingredients. Excellent stop.“

“Well Crafted Ambler Brewery and Beer Garden is a gem! Justine welcomed me the second I sat down. Her passion for craft beer is evident in her knowledgeable recommendations. With her warm demeanor and attention to detail, she creates a welcoming atmosphere where every visit feels like a delight. If you are in town, this place is a must try. 5 stars! Excellent staff/ Great beers!!!!“

“We just held our season kick-off party for our local little league and it was a fantastic experience! The brewery has top-notch service, the friendliest and kindest bartenders and an open and airy venue. Planning the event at Brothers Kershner was seamless. We had over 120 guests attend and it was a huge success! 10/10 would highly recommend.“

“Had dinner this past weekend at Round Guys Brewing. Staff was great and attentive . Food was really good. Husband had Carolina pork sandwich and I had the Brie and Chicken sandwich. We also had the hummus plate. Everything was fresh and prepared well. Husband enjoyed the beer. There were many different groups of people gatheredvin the patio couples families etc. They have their service and menu down. Enjoyed this place and plan to return.“

“Visiting the Fort Washington area and found this place via Google maps.
Stopped in only for drinks and I was amazed with the atmosphere.
My favorite beer is the moonless midnight followed by the terrestrial dragon.
We also tried a few cocktails and the Lebowski was very tasty.
When I looked at the food menu I wished that I was hungry as the selections looked good.
I think my next visit to this area will be only to come here again.
Great service and great beer!!“

“Went to this restaurant for the first time. The decor was so comfortable like sitting in a cozy living room. Lighting was perfect! We had the plank salmon with mashed potatoes and broccoli. I never tasted broccoli so delicious, don't know how it was cooked but it was also outstanding. It was DELICIOUS!! Our waiter Ryan was great! We will be back!“

“Great food, great beer, fantastic atmosphere, and dog friendly! Every staff member we've met has been friendly and pleasant. We mostly sit outside with one of our dogs and the outdoor area is quiet, surprisingly private and fun. The indoor space is very big, well designed and clean!“

“Tremendous place and people!!!“

“Hosted our staff holiday party here last year, but went to the restaurant part for the first time the other day to eat while watching the game. We sat at the outdoor bar, which wasn't really crowded so we found a seat easily. It's pretty spacious out there with traditional tables, the bar and some high tops as seating options. Bartender automatically came over to greet us and see what we would want for drinks.

They had a fall drink menu, so I tried the mule that was on that list, which I liked! Still had the fizz and taste of a mule but the hint of cinnamon and other fall-based ingredients did make it feel a bit more seasonal. The food was good too. I was originally going to try the Nashville chicken sandwich but, based on recommendations from the bartender, I went with the Buffalo Chicken flatbread instead. It was served hot, fresh and a good size portion. The taste was there and good distribution of chicken throughout the entire flatbread. I took a bit of his entree (the burger) which was cooked well, tasty and also a good size portion.

Cool, chill spot with some good bar food options. Will be back again.“

“It is a really cool old building that is a conversation piece. It is exceptionally clean. The food and beer are outstanding. The Moscow Mule with homemade ginger was amazing! The entire staff was well-trained, pleasant and responsive. Our server, Stephanie, was the best part of our visit. Thank you so much! We look forward to coming back and getting the “b” bread pudding which was “A+” in my book! 💙💙💙“

“Excellent service. Great food. Beer was delicious.“

“Had my husband’s 40th surprise birthday here. Turned out amazing! The planning and the set up was great , and I liked the communication with the follow up throughout. Then the day of the event, staff just went above and beyond. So glad that we celebrated here. All of my guests were impressed, not only with how the event was handled, but how delicious the food was.“
