"Even if you don’t know the difference between a pilsner and a porter, you’ll still be happy to hang out at Mudhen. Wildwood’s first craft brewery, which opened in 2018, occupies a cavernous former Harley Davidson showroom. The dining room spills out into a spacious, shaded outdoor patio. Between the space, the welcoming atmosphere, and the menu—which has a ton of better-than-it-has-to-be bar food—it’s a place for beer geeks, families (there’s a solid kids’ menu), and even your dog (if you sit on the patio). There’s a parking lot on-site, so it’s also for people who hate street parking. Order a flight of beers (try the Wee Heavy Wilson, even if you’re not a Scotch ale person—it’s super smooth and won gold at the World Beer Cup), and don’t skip the housemade potato chips." - Regan Stephens
