Granite Coast Brewing Company

When traveling I like visiting breweries. I spent ten days in Peabody/Salem. I completed a brewery crawl in Salem where I sampled some good beers. However, none of the places I visited during my trip impressed me more than Granite Coast. Jeff and the staff were friendly and engaging. I spent several visits during my stay imbibing and conversing with Jeff. He is a highly regimented brewer, making top notch beers with no dogs to be had. I very much appreciate that they are true to style. There were no artistic interpretations or alternate takes. I think there is something for everyone. I even took some home to enjoy on my deck!

Best tasting and best quality beer of the North Shore, hands down. There is a great variety and they are frequently rotating new delicious options. The space is spotless and comfortable, they have a lot of great events, and the patio is lovely. All around it’s a fantastic brewery!!

Small local brewery featuring a variety of perfectly crafted styles; any beer drinker can find something they enjoy here. The Rubus (raspberry wheat) is my personal favorite.

I highly recommend Granite Coast Brewing Company for a private event! We hosted a Nightmare Before Christmas themed Bridal Shower and had the brewery to ourselves from 12pm-3pm. Amy was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process answering all of my inquires within 24 hours of emailing. The team was organized and attentive the day of the party making sure that everything was set-up and going above and beyond to help us with food and decorations. This is an affordable, easy, and attractive option for showers, birthday parties, or any other event you may be celebrating with a group of people. Plus the beer is awesome! Would definitely book an event here again.

We went to granite coast brewery as our first stop on a brewery tour and never went to the other breweries. The beer was superb and Jeff was amazing in talking about the beers. The staff was courteous, polite and helpful. We went back to visit twice and every beer was excellent. Jeff thanks for the hospitality and sharing. Fred

Hidden gem in Peabody! This place has tons of event, super dog-friendly (dogs allowed inside and outside? Amazing), and great beer/seltzer flights. The people that work there are also really good guys that genuinely care about their customers. You hungry? They have great snacks and encourage bringing food in.

Granite Coast Brewing was a great venue for the welcome party for our wedding at Olio down the street. The beer was delicious and the service was incredible. Amy was extremely communicative and very quickly answered any questions we had. This is a perfect spot for a private event or casual beer!

Held our baby shower here, a great spot for a small private event. We had about 60 folks and it is the perfect venue for a crowd that size (and could accommodate more). The owner and staff were fantastic and sociable throughout the evening. The beers were great and to a person all of our guests had a great time! Visit for an event or stop in for a great tasting brew, you won’t be disappointed!

Fantastic beer in the heart of Peabody, Ma. Autumn beer tasting and then some! Check them out!

Beer and wifi as I'm finishing up my day on Cape Ann and heading back towards Boston. I stopped at Granite Coast for a wind down. A warm and friendly vibe, the bartenders were happy to chat about what they're doing here with their brewing. Oh, and they made these tables themselves. Cool! I did manage to power up my laptop for a bit and that was nice. I enjoyed a very crisp Kolsch followed by a Vienna Lager. It's nice that they offer smaller pours - 5 ounce, 8 ounce and 16 ounce - if you're looking for more than just a taster. Delicious! [Review 18603 overall - 1185 in Massachusetts - 2125 of 2022.]

The bartender was so accommodating and the beers were very good + reasonably priced. It is also easy to find street parking

This craft brewery is truly an exceptional and memorable experience. Each beer is unique and crafted with creativity. Jeff, the owner, was a pleasure to interact with. Highly recommended!

Had an exceptional experience here. Every beer was incredibly unique and high-quality. We got to speak with the owner, and he showed a huge passion for what he was doing. It's rare that you find a brewery with so much care put in to it. This is a high recommend for any beer fan.

One of our favorite breweries. Brewery is super clean. Trivia nights are always killer. Would recommend attending at least one. So many awesome brews on tap. Love how they're constantly creating new options.

What is there to know? First, the beer is great, delicious and freshly made on the premise. There is a good range from lighter beers to more robust IPAs, to English Ales, porters, and other seasonal favorites. I'd go just for the beer! Second, the tap room, this place is spotless, cozy, dog-friendly inside or out, and always good on space which is even more important in a pandemic. Third, the founders and staff are really friendly and are there because they care about the craft. Downtown Peabody is slowly creating a food scene. If you are in the area it is definitely worth going in for a pint or a flight. And don't forget to ask for the chocolate menu, it's sourced from a small local business-- and it will help tie you over to dinner. Pröst!

10/10 for me. This spot is a hidden gem among all the bigger breweries on the North Shore. Every time I come here, the beers are stellar and the staff are warm and welcoming. I'm not big on IPAs, so the fact that Granite Coast offers a good variety of beers is a huge plus. I also LOVE that Granite Coast has a chill, relaxed vibe. This is a great spot to actually have a real conversation with people--no shouting over music or loud ambience here! Definitely check out their events calendar on their website to see when they have food trucks on the site.

Everyone was so friendly. And the beers were unique and delicious! I hope they can get a food license but they do have snacks

Great beer / service / nice patio area. Only reason it's not 4 stars someone / anyone please start cleaning off outside tables - pizza / food / especially during Covid. I would have stayed longer if it was cleaner on patio.

Finally got to check out this new brewery over the weekend and it was amazing! Beer was delicious and ice cold and they had a food truck out front with amazing food! Highly recommend!

Very clean, spacious interior. It wasn't very crowded so it was pleasantly quiet and calm. The beers were all decent and the service was friendly. Peabody needs more places like this on Main Street!

My wife and I (along with our dog) stopped in on Sunday, and had a great time sampling their offerings. It was such a relaxed and chill atmosphere - and our dog was welcomed as well with homemade treats and a water bowl. They had also clearly had a lot of fun things planned on the schedule. We loved the beer, and there was also a surprise food pop-up, which was a welcome addition as well. Highly recommend!

THIS BREWERY is the best one in the greater Boston area. Their beers are delicious, they are easy to get to right off 128 & route One in Central Peabody. There's tons of good food right near by. They let you eat it in their place. You can bring your dog! The owners are two chill, really nice gentlemen. The beers, most importantly are delicious! Go! Go! Go!

The BEST! Not only do they have amazing beer, they go above and beyond to help their community. I love their rotating selection and how I get to try something new every time. Can't recommend enough.

Love their unique selection of beers with a look to the past and nod to the future. So glad we have a brew artist in our area. I was there two days ago and 8 beers on tap and not all one style or flavor but all unique and interesting brews. Went from rice flair of a Kentucky common to an IPA with flash frozen hops that had a crazy rich nose and taste. Definitely coming back to see what they come up next! I definitely felt that they took Covid seriously and felt safe while I was there so thumbs up to caution and atmosphere.

Great beers! Mostly ales and lighter beers verses IPAs. They also have a chocolate menu and a nice patio :)

Wonderful brewery! Great variety. You can bring your own food. Friendly staff. Dog friendly too!

Absolutely love Granite Coast! If you enjoy phenomenal microbrews in a great setting, do yourself a favor and head over and see Jeff and Rob! The best part, bring your dog in the good weather! Pups welcome in the patio.....

Great selections for a new brewery; flavorful and diverse. The acoustics in the room could be better. It's loud (even with about 20 people in it). Looking forward to how it grows.

With the Covid19 pandemic Granite Coast has out done themselves! There online growler fill ordering system is so simple and the pick up is even simpler! I arrived and the signage at the door was very helpful and I had no quests on what to do after reading, they take the CDC Guidelines very seriously which was amazing to see! When you walk in and if anyone is In front of you or behind you they have marked off spots to stand in that makes it so your 6 feet apart. There is a spot for your old growlers if Your doing an exchange. Walk up to the counter get your growler, I also got a logo glass which I love and it was very decently priced which was even better! Love the glass nice to drink out of. I got the Belgian triple it's amazing and nice alcohol content! Once your done they have another door for an exit! It's one way in and one way out. The system works perfect, no unnecessary interaction with any other patrons. Will be going often!!!

Checked out this place last night - there's nothing like enjoying beer fresh from a brewery! Tasted 6 beers in total and they were all very good. I particularly liked their IPA, which was more balanced and floral than what you often find at craft breweries who sometimes try to push the limits of how much hops etc they can put in a beer, resulting in something that barely resembles the style it's supposed to be (and maybe more of a meal that a drink). I also thought their grapefruit shandy was interesting - not too sweet but a refreshing summer drink that packs an amazing citrus punch that could probably cure scurvy. Note: I stopped in after eating at The NexMex Thing one door down - I regret not taking out my burrito (the real deal kind, similar to Anna's Tacqueria) and bringing it right over to the brewery, who encourages bringing in food from outside. GC also allows dogs, so I may stop in with my dog Seamus sometime.

Went to granite coast today and got four growler fills - cream ale, Czech pale lager, low abv bitter, and Kentucky common - all excellent and all great examples of their style - friendly and quick service even though it was busy - big fan of their beer - highly recommended! owner is super friendly, courteous and knowledgeable about his beer - keep up the great work and thank you for making great beer !!!

The beer was tasty. The space is extremely loud and it was chaotic the Saturday night I was there. Kids were running around screaming and they were the staff's kids. Servers need to be more attentive and engaged in chatting about their beers.

I ordered the Oatmeal Stout which was excellent. My wife also enjoyed what she drank. They allow dogs inside, so we brought ours along which was nice. Rob (one of the owners) was very friendly and provided water for our dog as well. Although this is a newer brewery they seem to be on the right path for success. I recommend this place if you're in the area and we definitely plan on revisiting it.

I give this place 5 stars the brews are excellent and tastefully done. The staff is very knowledgeable about their brews and others and they treat you like family the moment you walk in.

First experience at the brewery for yappy hour today with my dog and I have to say the service was amazing! Everybody was welcoming and friendly. The beer selection was great and I highly recommend if you are looking for a relaxing and friendly atmosphere to bring your dog and kids and just kick back. Will definitely be returning!

Was in town and heard about this new brewery in Peabody. So fun! Great beers - we got a flight so we could try several and they were all very good - smooth. They were hosting a BBQ company that night (they bring in different vendors or you can bring your own), and the BBQ was great too. Service is friendly. The place is casual and fun. Perfect for families - you don't have to worry if your kids want to move around or make a little noise - they welcome young and old and even well behaved doggies! Seating is on picnic tables which is nice so you can spread out. They also have a patio. Kudos to owners Rob and Jeff for establishing such a fun place!

My husband and I came with our dog- the service was excellent and the beer top quality! We definitely plan on returning sometime.

Nice little spot. They were out of their IPA when I went which was a disappointing start. The porter was pretty good, but the ESB was a little bland for my taste.
