Good beers with a variety of seating options, including a rooftop. Seems to be child friendly as there were many children running around during happy hour.Music playing was generic pop hits

We rented Eavesdrop's heated party tent and held an event here this weekend so this review is from the private party/event aspect!Start to finish the rental process was easy. A few emails back and forth, a form and payment/deposit. The tent, on a Saturday evening in the winter, for 3 hours was $150. ? There is an additional refundable $100 deposit for cleaning, so if you don't trash the place and you clean up after your party - and they give you 30 minutes after the ending of your event to do just that - you'll get the cleaning deposit back.The tent had ample seating and tables for our party. We had approx 25 adults and 16ish kids. There was plenty to of room to mosey around. The kids ran back and forth between the tent and playing outside. It is heated by 2 propane heaters which made it so much better than freezing outside, but most of us still needed jackets/coats.The adults commented on how great the event space was, and couldn't believe it when I told them it was only $150.The bartenders were amazing in every way possible. Super helpful, kind, didn't act like we were a nuisance. (We tried not to be) They even came in to tell us it was last call.They give you 30 minutes before to set up and 30 minutes after to clean up, not included in the 3 hour event timeframe.It was easy to go from the tent to the bar to get drinks.Eavesdrop has so many good beers on tap as well as hot spiced mulled wine, hot chocolate, seltzers, hot apple cider, etc.Easy parking situation , just don't park directly in front of Sheetz.Would recommend for hanging out and totally would recommend renting that party tent!

My favorite brewery in all of NoVa.

LOVE everything about this place. Their beers are always good (when it’s cold I’m obsessed with the mulled wine) the ambience is great and relaxing also very inviting. They do a lot of great events during the week like trivia, pop up shops, and paint nights. It has a low-key feel to it but it can definitely get busy. When it’s cold, they always have the fireplaces and heated igloos. Pet and kid friendly! The fries are actually from Eugenes which is next-door. They of course allow you to bring in food/ snacks or walk over to Eugenes and you can bring it back over which I think is really awesome. Overall, such a fun vibe, great drinks and friendly staff.

Beers are fantastic! Atmosphere was relaxing. A taste of the country in a busy suburb. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Awesome place to be any time of the week. Monday nights for karaoke are great. Nick is very nice and service and recommendations are on point. I thought moving back from Colorado I'd miss my breweries. Eavesdrop has made it abundantly clear that's not the case.

We went it a very kid/dog friendly place. But my little cousin bought a 4 pack of beer no one told her we could not open the beer. I open one can. A waiter came and told me that was not allowed it was a to go pack. Than my little cousin decided to open another and the manager decided to take the last two beers with out letting her know. I understand the policy’s but it was paid for they could of hold them for us till we left
Eavesdrop is a spacious brewery located just off Route 28. I visited with several friends, and we all brought our dogs along. Parking was a bit challenging during a busy time, but there's valet parking available on weekends. The brewery offers ample outdoor seating, including picnic tables, covered areas, fire pits, and an indoor taproom. It's a very welcoming place for families, dog owners, and larger groups. The beer is truly outstanding, with the Digital Dove IPA being a standout that's well worth the journey. You can enjoy the beer on-site in the taproom, or there's a separate shop where you can purchase beer to fill growlers or take home in cans. They also offer food on-site, and if you have a seat by a fire pit, you can even get s'mores kits.

I do love this place! I’m not a huge beer drinker, so I love the fact that they have cider and seltzer options (as well as flights). Service is always great, I ordered fries and they good. I’m only leaving 4 stars because food options are pretty limited and it’s mostly outdoors, I’ve only gone in the summer/early fall so weather is nice, I’m not sure how it’ll be in the winter time.

Even though we have not visited eavesdrop YET in person, as we are in Nebraska - I have to say that I really appreciate Sam at Eavesdrop for all the help in getting some Eavesdrop products shipped to me so that we were also able to enjoy Backstrom Swede-est assist party as well. We are big Capitals fans so it was a pleasure working with Sam to be able to celebrate from here. Looking forward to our trip to watch another Caps game but this time plan to be able to visit Eavesdrop in person as the place looks amazing in the Insta posts. Thanks for everything!!! Quick shipping and top rated. Thx from your new Nebraska fans Eavesdrop!!

Perfect outdoor beer garden. Best hotdog ever.

I am not a beer drinker & this brewery had plenty of options for me that were quite good. It also has a spacy and fun courtyard and roof. It could use more parking but I am not sure how they would accomplish this given the space. The courtyard is shared with a food place. It sounds like food trucks frequent the area but were not there when it was raining so ultimately it was difficult to find anything small or healthy to eat to go along with the drinks.
