“Good beer, buffalo chicken Stromboli was amazing. Service was excellent!“

“A lot more bar seats now. Will be great in football season.“

“What an awesome find! Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. It’s very hidden, and deceiving from the outside. But do yourself a favor and go in. Almost everything is made in house, the food is phenomenal and the beer is icy cold, plus it’s a great brew. There have a huge range of gluten free/gluten removed beer for those who are allergic or sensitive.
The price of the entire menu is incredibly reasonable and the service is top notch! What a great find, I can’t recommend highly enough.“

“Some of the best tasting brew in the region! Give it a try! 🤠“

“I visited this shop recently and fell in love. The owner, Diane, makes a wide variety of tasty, healthy and refreshing kombucha. She took great care to explain things to me and my daughter during our visit and recommended flavors we might like based on our tastes. In addition to kombucha, her shop features locally made art from various artisans. I went in the shop not being a fan of kombucha, but left with a 4-pack of booch and a whole new appreciation for it. Highly recommend!“

“Great bier and atmosphere!“

“Great little spot. Good food and beer. We will definitely be back“

“We sat inside, but I think one of the coolest parts about this place is their patio. It has a ton of room out there and is filled with all types of plant life. There is a great selection of board games and cards to pass the time while drinking some brews. The brewery had a nice selection of their own beer and other locally sourced beer. Bartender was super nice and personable.“

“Come here regularly. Good food, good drink selection and nice atmosphere. Staff are very nice.“

“Lauren is a great bartender, very personable, very nice to talk to. Cocktails and beer are delicious!“

“What a great place to do some wine tasting and some brewery tasting. We came in owned by Mount Hope Wine and Brewery Company next to Renaissance Faire. We walked in and was greeted by an employee who was very informative about the brewery and Winery. There was so much to see and much to buy. We even had a wine tasting for $5 with 4 selections including 1 free bonus and we got free wine glasses with the tasting. I also ordered a Nightmare Before Christmas glass. We very breifly went upstairs to see the brew and I did like the selection of tee shirts we might have to stop by in the future to get t-shirts and try a little brew.“

“Had a great experience at South County last night. We had a party of six, and our waitress did a fantastic job keeping up with everything we needed. She was patient with us while we sampled several different beers and was friendly and attentive the entire evening.

We started with the Brussels sprouts and egg rolls, and both were excellent. Dinner came out at just the right time after the appetizers, and everything was cooked perfectly.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable evening with family. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I just made another visit to the Burly Bar and it was amazing as always. Absolutely love their offerings, especially the pepper whiskey. Food was fabulous. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to go back.“

“We hosted our Spirit Doll Workshop at Our Town Brewery in Lancaster, and the experience was nothing short of amazing! The service was truly remarkable — Abby, Rob, and Emily went above and beyond to make sure everything flowed smoothly. Abby in particular was so wonderful; I loved staying after and getting to know her better. It felt like we weren’t just customers but part of the community. The atmosphere, the team, and the energy made it a night to remember. We can’t wait to come back soon — thank you, Our Town Brewery, for the warm welcome and incredible hospitality!“

“We live in Los Angeles. We were visiting family in Philly and came to Lancaster for the day on a Monday when most of the restaurants were closed. Someone steered us to The Coffin, and we had an excellent time. The food was delicious, and we were particularly delighted with the bao buns. They were just as good as the pork belly buns that were our favorite dish at an LA Asian restaurant that closed during the pandemic. Service at The Coffin was prompt and cordial, and the decor was a kick. Highly recommend.“

“Incredible staff behind the bar and the food was amazing!!“
