35 Best Craft Breweries near Renton

“Best brewery I’ve been to in Renton. I got to talk with the owner/brewmaster Ross. I was very impressed at how much they’re able to produce within such a compact space.

He gave me a tour just cause I asked if he ever gave them. His concept of creating modern German beers with different regional flavors is amazing! And their recipes are spot on! If you’re looking for a legitimate Bier Gärten this is the closest you’re going to get to being in Germany yourself, so if you don’t feel like flying to Munich, definely stop by here for something truly special!“

“Great local brew spot that everyone there makes you feel welcome once you walk in. The brew is really good and always rotating.“

“Game Day!! With Bickerson’s!!“

“I support establishments that support inclusivity“

“Your food and drinks are amazing! Had a burger with a BUN for the first time in a VERY long time! I'd pretty much given up on gluten free buns. The peach sour and the beer was delish! Felt so good to know I could eat anything on the menu and not worry about any cross contamination!“

“Great niche spot at the end of the waterfront front in Seattle. Amazing patio, comfortable bar seats, laid back and good vibes... and obviously the beer is amazing!
Friendly staff, and the food is on point 💯

Plus, they will put on the sports ball game if you are a sports nerd like me 🤓“

“This was my first time here. I've always wanted to go, but never knew it's exact location. It's the perfect micro-brew pub. Spacious, great high tops. I like the outdoor patio. Georgetown brewing makes some great brews. I was there at a release party for Shelly's Leg IPA which comes out every June. Very tasty.“

“Absolutely the best pizza and wings in town. And the customer service Is the best as well. They go out of their way to make sure everyone is content“

“Métier is such a great community resource. Their coconut porter is as good of a porter as I've had, and even better on nitro at the brewery. Their partnership with Little Brown Girl provides great food to go along with the great beer. I had their shrimp bahn mi sandwich, which was great. They had a comedy night the day I was there, which was an extra bonus.“

“We tried 8 beers here, and each one was different to the others and didn't match other beers from other spots. The atmosphere is friendly, and you can even be immersed in beer brewing in real time.“

“Jellyfish Brewing Co. Makes the most delicious, inventive beer! It’s our favorite watering hole. And we are so happy it’s so close.“

“Five stars for being a great place to watch Arsenal FC win or lose with other Arsenal fans in a business with staff who really care about your Arsenal watching experience. They even added an outside television for the UEFA Champions league which was AWESOME because the other Arsenal pub had nearly 200 people standing in line outside more than 2 hours before the 2026 UEFA CL game had started and so we then headed to Machine House Brewery and saw they were also full inside and that they added the outdoor television!! It was a majorly appreciated addition and it felt like a connected community standing together outside watching our Gunners!

🎶 North London Forever 🎶“

“I went here before seeing MCR at T-Mobile Park. You'd never be able to tell from the outside, but this place is cooler than anything else in the area. The beer is delicious, and the vibes are next level. Do yourself a favor man, hit this place up.“

“Thanks for making the new beer Mirror's Edge in collaboration with our Burien Run Club (Burien Run Walk). It is really good! You are always friendly and this is just a great place for us to meet on Thursday nights. I can't recommend this establishment enough! shout out to Blake and to the brewer Michael. You are amazing!“

“Great MicroBrewery! Staff & Brews are some of the Best out in the Industry!“

“One of our friends described this very Seattle brewery perfectly: You see people playing D&D while the Seahawks are playing. Beers are brewed in house! We love playing games and hanging out here. Friendly staff and fantastic atmosphere. I mean, how can you beat hanging out, drinking and playing board games while watching sci-fi films / Seahawks games? Strangely to some, the most impressive aspect is the restroom setup. Gender neutral rooms with tampons/pads on hand for those who need them. For those who don't typically see this setup, it's kind of a big deal and helps this brewery stand out.“

“This brewery had the BEST root beer on tap I have ever had on. I will definitely be coming back for some delicious root beer. I took some to go!! The brewery itself is beautiful and very friendly and welcoming. I would most definitely recommend this brewery to someone. The coolest part was that they had coffee brewing too!! How awesome. I loved this place. The employees were incredibly kind. 10/10“

“Amazing beer, fantastic atmosphere, and huge appreciation for making the brewery both kid-friendly and pet-friendly. The small imbiss stand is a hidden gem as well — great food and a perfect complement to the experience.

But the real star is the beer… absolutely awesome. Great flavors, great vibe, and definitely a spot worth visiting again.“

“Tasty beers with a cool industrial vibe. A great selection of fruity sours packed with flavor. A black raspberry grisette stole my heart... Also, bonus points for being right under the SeaTac flight path. Super fun to watch jets flight right above the patio.“

“Probably the best alcoholic ginger beer I’ve ever tasted (the imperial). Shocked this was my first time trying it. But now that I know this exists, I’m sure it will be accompanying me to every backyard party this summer. Thanks for making a great product yall!“

“This is definitely one of the unsung heroes of the brew scene in Seattle and the fact that they opened in 2020 is pretty hardcore considering they are still in business and going strong.

Reaching this place was pretty easy and it is located on a funky corner in the downtown part of Georgetown. Our initial objective was to take part in a ramen cooking class that was supposed to take place somewhere at the brewery, or next to it, but it took place inside the common drinking area next to a wall which was total nonsense. To say that the class was a joke is a gross understatement, but this is in no way a slight to the brewery which was hospitable,great beertenders and knock-down kick ass strong brews. First brew I had was their Project Haze which was a juice bomb of triple dry hopped goodness celebrating their ten years (not at that location I believe). I also got a triple IPA and another one not listed and can't remember the name of. Trust me when I say they will deliver the boozy goods. I also grabbed some stickers because the artwork is really special and unique commissioned by a local guy who is talented and animated with the graphics. If you are looking for a place to unwind after sight seeing, detour here and relax; they'll treat you right!“

“Cloudburst reminds me of how breweries used to be 10 plus years ago. They find some space inside the actual brewery operations. Set up a small bar counter and a few tables. Open the garage door and serve beer for a few hours in the late afternoon-evening, maybe four days a week tops. I miss that vibe.“

“A massive thank you to Big Block in Sammamish and dynamo Kyle behind the counter for helping us pull off a fabulous engagement party. Venue was the talk of the town and many family and friends plan on returning to try the beers they didn't get to! Bride and groom each tried 5 and want to come back for trying the rest!
Truly though, thank you. It is such a fabulous space. Kyle was a pleasure to work with and made the day that much more fun for us and our guests.“

“They have lovely outside fires where you can sip draft beer and much on fresh hot soft pretzels and stone ground mustard.“

“I was in for the Bosnia game recently and Denise was our server. She was amazing to say the least. I highly recommend requesting her if you make it in while she’s working. She was hilarious, attentive and hustled her butt off while still making her presence not just known through the chaos, but we felt well taken care of through our whole visit. We will definitely be back and requesting her!“

“Enjoyed our visit. Great outdoor seating. Friendly staff.“

“So fun! The ginger beer and sodas are delicious! We had the best time trying the different flavors, the staff give out samples and are super friendly. We came first for just the ginger beer and then came back later that evening for a cocktail and both were delicious. They allow you to mix and match flavors which made it super fun to curate your own unique beverage!“

“If you are a fan of ginger beer, or just want to try something different to cool off, Rachel's Ginger Beer will not disappoint. Serving non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks. Large variety of flavors. Staff is friendly and helpful. If you are not sure what to order, ask for one or more samples. Went back time and again. Loved the white peach, and of course the original Moscow Mule. Highly recommend you stop in. Open even after Pike's Market closes for the evening.“

“Good beer as usual from FF. First time at this location.

Different than SODO in design and set up.

The bartender was nice and seemed to know a lot of folks. The problem is she was so busy it was difficult for her to keep up with glassware and keeping tables bussed and sanitized. Not saying the place was dirty but she was one person running around like crazy.

Parking is limited. The music was a little too loud but all in all a decent place to get a beer. If only they’d update their online menus/taplist….“

“Great food and beer... amazing service!“

“had the French dip before the Seattle Thunderbirds game. very good, good service.“

“Nice vibe, sucks that the one and only TV was broken on the night of the 1st football game of the season but we watched it on a phone. There was no AC seemingly so it was super hot and when you’re getting tipsy the warmth is that much worse. The cider is a mix of yummy and mid. We tried several cider flights, about 12 flavors and I only really enjoyed maybe 3? Anyways the food was great, my partner and I tried the circus burger, basket fries and the popcorn chicken. WARNING: it’s not really popcorn chicken. I was hella hungry thinking it was actually gonna be popcorn sized and so I ordered the 20 piece, BIG MISTAKE, if you’re one person, order the 8 piece. It’s not popcorn sized or even chicken nugget sized. It’s like even larger than if you ordered boneless wings at wing stop. Not bad, just ordered too much food and I unfortunately get the OPPOSITE of the drunchies! Attached photo for reference. It’s delicious though and so is the sauce.“

“I had a fantastic experience at McMenamins Queen Anne. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck that perfect balance of relaxed, welcoming, and uniquely Northwest—exactly what you hope for in a spot that works just as well for families as it does for a casual night out.

I ordered the Communications Breakdown burger with a Beyond Meat substitution, and it was excellent. The flavors were well-balanced, the burger was cooked perfectly, and it didn’t feel like a “compromise” choice at all—it stood on its own. The fries were crisp, well-seasoned, and exactly what you want alongside a great burger.

The beer selection was just as strong as expected—fresh, flavorful, and a great complement to the meal. McMenamins always delivers on that front, and this location is no exception.

One of the biggest surprises of the night was dessert. The churros were way better than expected—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and absolutely worth saving room for.

Overall, this is a spot that truly delivers across the board: great food, solid drinks, a fun and inviting environment, and something for everyone. Highly recommend whether you’re heading out with friends, family, or just looking for a reliable, enjoyable meal.“

“Lots of good food options- proper entrees as well as affordable snacks. Also a unique set of non alcoholic drinks. Overall a great experience as we spent a few hours (happy hours) working here and were checked in on the staff who were very friendly.“

“We love this restaurant. We live closer to rhe West Seattle location but now, nowhere to park. We love Burien. Perfect food, service, atmosphere. I can truthfully say in 30 years we have never had a bad meal or experience at either restaurant. Quality control. Perfect.“
