Top Brewpubs in Philadelphia, United States

We have long loved Chestnut Hill Brewing Company, so it was an easy choice to host our wedding rehearsal dinner here–and we couldn’t be happier with that choice! The staff were incredible to work with! Lindsey was very responsive as we were planning, gave helpful guidance as we selected our menu, and worked hard to ensure our guests with dietary restrictions were well fed. The staff the night of was friendly and attentive–we couldn’t have asked for more!

Really cool place! We have done takeout and dine in, and it never disappoints. Their pizzas are really good. Salads are big portions. Servers are friendly.

SUMMER REGINETTI PASTA was phenomenal!!! If you want a delicious light pasta, this is what you need to get. The smashed chicken burger was also good, but nothing came close to that pasta. It has “trapanese pesto + reginetti pasta + cherry heirloom tomatoes + chicken chorizo + parmesan + fresh oregano”

The French fries and Thunder Punch beer were also delicious. I will be back!

It sounds like you had an amazing dining experience at Chestnut Hill Brewing Company! Giving it a 10/10 rating speaks volumes about the quality of the food and overall atmosphere.

The buffalo cauliflower and mushroom ragout pasta (or cauliflower cream rigatoni) sound like delicious choices, especially for those looking for vegan options. It's wonderful to hear that both you and your daughter, who isn't vegan, enjoyed the meal so much. Finding dishes that are satisfying and flavorful for everyone, regardless of dietary preferences, is truly special.

And it's great to know that they offer a cool vibe and a variety of drink options, even though you didn't partake this time around. Thanks for sharing your experience and recommendation—I'm sure others will appreciate it too!

We visited this brewery based upon the vegan options on their menu and we were not disappointed. Our server was very knowledgeable and reassured us that the options were 100% vegan. We went for the Buffalo Cauliflower which had the the right amount of spice and the Rustic Tomato. The latter was good with great crust but the sauce lacked spice. Overall, definitely a place to visit. Oh yea, the beer was great too and none of their drafts contained lactose

Good food, service was ok. Live music is a plus. I loved it!!!

I recently visited Manayunk Berwery Company and unfortunately, we had a disappointing experience. The food was not up to par it was horrible, Additionally, the drinks were watered, down which is quite disappointing considering a good drink can enhance the dining experience. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone, especially for a date. It was the worst place on Main Street, don’t waste your money.

Wow, where do I begin… Let’s start with the positive our waiter was great. Other than that the food was not edible their drinks were unlike anything I’ve tasted before even a simple cocktail that consisted of a liquor and a juice taste way off It was just the worst … we were a party of six and only one was satisfied, but yet he’s a toddler… do not recommend this place at all..

Always good to be at this Brewery. The service as usual is welcoming, and friendly. The variety of options could be a bit more but overall they're good. There is a sushi, and sashimi menu too. Son that's a bonus for those of us who like seafood. This is an easy place to come to whenever you're hungry and just want to eat in a comfortable setting outside of home.

I’ve been here many times, and it’s hands down my top spot for pizza in Chestnut Hill. The crispy brussel sprouts, fire pit salad, and white pie are absolute must-tries. The dog-friendly outdoor area, along with live music on weekend nights, creates a fantastic vibe for a delightful date night.

However, they use separate kitchens, causing occasional delays in receiving appetizers/salads after the pizza. Additionally, utensils are sometimes forgotten when serving these items. Despite these downsides, the fantastic food and overall atmosphere keep me coming back, hoping they’ll improve these minor issues.

We stopped in randomly for some drinks. They had a couple dressed up as the Grinch and Santa. It really added to the atmosphere. My girlfriend and I had some fun taking pictures. The brewery itself was awesome. Good beer and an accommodating staff. We had a bunch of appetizers. The building was spacious. With it's own sushi bar. Very recommended

Nice basement bar. Would have liked to see more brews from their own brewery. They make good stuff

Pizza was just okay. Crust was amazing! But the ranch dressing left something to be desired. The dressing left an aftertaste, that I am assuming came from the mayonnaise used. Would not get this particular pizza again, but would gladly go back to try different toppings.

The food was delicious. We are big foodies and travel a lot and have to day this was one of our favorites so far!

Wow, Chestnut Hill Brewing Company is off the charts. 10/10, easily! Will be back for sure.

Had the buffalo cauliflower and mushroom ragout pasta (it’s actually called cauliflower cream rigatoni on the menu… if you love mushrooms, this is the dish!!) … both vegan. I’m vegan and my daughter is not. We shared both and she couldn’t believe it was vegan and both loved this meal! 100% recommend and cool vibe. We didn’t drink, but if you do, great options too.

My favorite vegan pasta and pizza! Their seasonal Pesto Bucatini is my go-to but the Cauliflower Cream Rigatoni is delicious, as well. I've been vegan for over ten years and their Forager Pizza is the best I've ever had. The staff is friendly and the location is perfect, next to Market at the Fareway. An essential dining destination in Chestnut Hill!

Amazing food and great service!

I took my family from out of town here and they loved it. We got some of the best service we've ever experienced. Also one of us is vegan and the server was really helpful with that. All of the food was delicious and came out quickly. The restaurant was also very clean and although the main area was loud (at the bar) the back where we sat was quiet.

Amazing location I would definitely recommend going here for any occasion.

Reservation for a going away party. Was easy to reserve, and they were excellent with communication. Our group had a couches on the porch reserved around the corner so it was semi private. Trivia night was fun which started at 7pm on Wednesday. Everyone was able to order from the menu online or go in and order from the market.

We visited CHB for the first time a few weekends ago and had a great time! We didn’t realize that the inside seating was pretty much all reserved ahead of time, so we opted to sit in the beer garden with our large party after initially getting a few drinks at the bar. My husband and I got a couple of flights and enjoyed all the beers we tried. We didn’t get a chance to try any of the cocktails, since they can’t bring those outside (which was a little odd). Overall, we had a good experience and look forward to returning!

We had the best time to the dog birthday! Barley and Hopz- the mascots- turned 5 and 4! They were super dog friendly and kind. All the servers were wonderful! They got a special dog treat and a chew toy!

The brews were great and so was the food 😊

Relaxing atmosphere with views of the river. Went here with a group 14 people and were able to sit right down no problem outside. The menu is small enough that it’s not overwhelming, but still has plenty of different options and even a full sushi menu that I almost missed. They had some really good mixed drinks, although I do not recommend the fuzzball. That was the only item I was disappointed by. Otherwise, they had a great aesthetic, surprisingly great playlist, friendly staff, and created a great time for our group. Will definitely visit again.

I hosted my sisters bridal shower here and cant say enough great things! The space was the perfect size for our party of 18. All the staff were extremely attentive and helpful. The plus the food and beer is delicious!! 10/10 recommend hosting an event here or just coming for a beer. Great atmosphere!
