5 Best Craft Breweries in Tyler

“True Vine Brewing Company is a warm, friendly place to enjoy beer, pizza, and community. They have a large open space with a stage for events, and their staff is helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is great, with clean spaces and fantastic music. Their beer selection includes a variety of options, from IPAs to unique blends like Sanctimonium and Giant Slayer. The place is community-oriented, with a dog park, space for kids, live music, and good food. The indoor seating is limited, but overall it's a fantastic local spot to hang out with friends and enjoy some great beer and pizza.“

“First time at this location. Quaint, and quiet as we were the first arrivals on a Saturday before the evening crowd started coming in. Good selection of their own locally-brewed craft beers. Nice place to chill /hang out in the downtown Tyler Square.“

“ETX Brewing Company offers stellar food on a great patio with downtown Tyler views. The Hangover Bowl, Chicken and Waffles, and The Hangry Burger are popular choices for brunch. The brewery has friendly staff, clean restrooms, and fun decor. Visitors praise the delicious chicken sandwich, fries, and mac, along with the tasty beer selection including stout and ranger. A must-visit for food, service, and beer enthusiasts!“

“The Porch at ETX offers a mixed dining experience. While the food has received mixed reviews, with some dishes like the burgers and sandwiches being described as "extremely mid" and overpriced, the queso is a standout. The restaurant also boasts a great selection of drinks, including mead and soda fountain options. The service, however, is the highlight, with the server Taylor praised for her attentiveness and efforts to address any issues. Overall, The Porch at ETX may be better suited for those looking to enjoy drinks in a lively atmosphere rather than a full dining experience.“

“BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse offers delicious food and drinks, with exceptional service from staff such as Riley and Olivia Everett. Known for their menu knowledge and ability to recommend food options, they provide a wonderful dining experience, making BJ's a great choice for a meal out.“
