8 Best Craft Breweries in Fredericksburg

“Nice place to meet friends.“

“never a bad beer! always helpful and attentive tenders.“

“We had a blast hosting Latin Night here! Spanglish Latin American Band and DJ Elle Jay hopes to be back to make more magic on the dance floor soon! Great spirits and a beautiful space with ample parking!“

“We hosted my daughter Bryanna’s baby shower at Strangeways and couldn’t have been more pleased with how the day came together. From the moment we started planning through supporting “day-of-event” needs - Lauren, Josh and his team were incredibly accommodating — attentive, flexible, and genuinely invested in making the event special. The space itself was a great surprise; warm, well-designed, and perfect for a private gathering without feeling stuffy.

The beer selection is extensive and varied enough to satisfy every palate in the group — from hop-forward IPAs to more approachable options for the casual beer drinker. And then there’s the Twisted Roots Spiked Root Beer Hard Seltzer — dangerously good. The kind of drink that goes down so smoothly you have to remind yourself it’s not actually root beer. Consider yourself warned.

What really sealed it was learning about their regular events — silent disco, trivia nights, karaoke — this is clearly a place that knows how to bring people together beyond just the pour. We’ll absolutely be back. Highly recommend Strangeways for anyone looking for a venue that combines great craft beer with a team that actually cares about the experience.“

“We came to visit some friends and went for dinner, our server Isabella W. was absolutely amazing. She was very attentive and helped my husband and friend decide on a beer of liking. we will definitely come back when we are in town...“

“Shoutout to Desiree! She is the best!“

“The service was outstanding, friendly, attentive, and genuinely focused on making sure we had a great time. Even though I personally don’t eat seafood, there were still plenty of great options for me, and everything I ordered was absolutely amazing. You can really tell they take pride in the quality of the food they serve. The manager even took the time to come by our table, check on us, and make sure everything was perfect. Between the incredible food, excellent service, and the welcoming atmosphere, it made for a truly great dining experience. We left very impressed and will definitely be back again soon. If you’re in Fredericksburg and looking for a place with great food and amazing service, I highly recommend The Port Oysteria & Bar!“

“Great live entertainment !!“
