14 Best Beer Bars in Lancaster

“Delicious food! Tried the TLT (Tempeh Lettuce Tomato) and Eden's Apple (mocktail). Fun atmosphere with a Gothic decor. If I'm ever back in the area it will be a go-to location for sure!“

“Always a fun time at our local Villa Nova Sportsbar & Grill. We were out walking with our little pup & were welcomed to stop in at the outside patio. Well, it ended up to be such a relaxed wonderful time. Toby, the pup, met new friends. We enjoyed amazing cocktails & dinner. Toby was served a grilled hotdog that just made his day. Maddie, our waitress, just made us feel so at home… great food, drinks & just a fun enjoyable relaxing time!! Thank you!!“

“Bert and The Elephant has great service, but the vibe is what really makes it special. It truly feels like you’re in Belgium! The food and drinks are amazing, and to top it off, I also found out that Bert’s and my family are from the same neighboring town on an island. Then to make it better me and him were born in the same town in a whole different country across the world, such a small world. Bert is a great guy, but his explanation about the beers, the technique behind the foam and how to enjoy it was mind blowing!! Jess was soooo good as well! Can’t wait to come back!“

“I order a Fried Chicken Sandwich and fries to go. Food was ready when I got there 25 minutes later. Sandwich had lots of flavor which I like. For quality it was on same level as Chic Fillet just not as moist but more flavor and less breading. I almost thought it wasn't fried at first. French fires are the very thin type and did not hold up very well for take out. But the first ones I grabbed out of the bag before driving home were good and crispy. I ordered a side of Spicy Cajun Aioli. The sauce was a large portion and great for the fries and occasionally dipped the chicken sandwich.“

“They made me a delectable dirty chai ☕️ uber fast! Great vibe. Sometimes they even have live painting! 🖼️ 🎨 👩‍🎨 Will definitely come back if they do more of that. 🎨🖌️☕️Thanks!

Update : their Ginger Rooibos is delightful! 😋 ☕️“

“if you're looking for the best pub food in the city proper, look no further than Dan's Pub. the food is on point and there's no place I'd rather go for a fantastic sandwich. The menu is perfect.The cheese steaks, fish and chips and dogs are the bomb. Victoria is a hidden treasure in the kitchen. don't change a thing. love it“

“Loved this brewery. Spent a weekend brewery hopping and this was my favorite selection by far. Great conversation with attentive bartenders. I wish i didnt live 2 hours away, they seemed to have great events I would love to attend. Already planning my return visit!“

“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.“

“One of the more surprising details about Lancaster is that you can get very high-quality cocktails here. The best place to do so is Bar 1888. Perched in the center of City Market South, you can grab food from one of the dozen-or-so diverse food stands and then settle in for an often rotating, inventive cocktail list...often including esoteric flavors and ingredients (salted tomatillo syrup for the win). One of my favorite stops in downtown Lancaster.“

“So my husband and I love trying new places! We are not from Lancaster but from the Reading area. We sat at the bar on Saturday and met Boots.. Yes. Our bartenders name was Boots. He was nothing short of amazing!!!!! He was fun, funny, knowledgable and perfect!! Our food (Korean kabobs and pretzel) were sooo delicious!!! Drinks fantastic!!! If you have a chance to chill with Boots I highly suggest you do it!!! Thank you Boots for a fantastic afternoon. Just wish we got to see Kat and give her that message (lol)“

“What a delightful experience. First time at the Plough and enjoyed every minute. Aaron, our server, was professional, friendly and knew the menu very well. I would highly recommend!“

“Excellent food!! Haven’t had a meal this good in a long time!!“

“We like trying new places. We enjoyed our cheese steak pizza - especially the crust. I enjoy a thinner crust that is a little "crispy" but not burnt. This pizza nailed it for my wife and I. Our waitress was very nice and the rest of the staff kept busy keeping the place clean and friendly.
There is lots of natural light, and it wasn't really noisy like other restaurants. It is a bit far for us to visit real often. However, we will stop in again when we are in that part of town.
I would recommend that you give this place a try.“
