Manayunk Brewing Company

The Best Breweries In Philadelphia

"The best thing about Manayunk Brewery Company is their elevated deck where you can look at the Schuylkill River while day drinking on the weekends. They have some in-house beers, but they mostly pour stuff from other breweries, like a fruity sour tripel from Victory Brewing Co. and citrusy pale ale from Yards. Plus, since it doubles as a restaurant, you can bring a group of people who all want to eat different things (like margherita pizzas, crispy fish and chips with housemade slaw, and pasta drenched in vodka sauce)." - candis mclean

"The best way to deal with those days when you might get sun poisoning just by looking at the reflection off the sidewalk is to leave the entire city altogether. But when the shore is too far and the suburbs are too boring, spend the day eating and drinking at Manayunk Brewing Co. It has a huge outdoor patio that’s right next to the river, and it’s so peaceful you might even start to understand why anyone decides to live in Amish country." - sydney mcelwee

"Enjoy craft beer in an idyllic setting Many places in Philadelphia have names derived from Native American words. Manayunk, Philly's trendy riverfront neighborhood in the northwestern part of the city, literally means “where we go to drink”. Which is a good way to segue into this highlight... I’d recommend spending the day in Manayunk, especially in the warm weather months, when the outdoor cafes on Main Street are thriving and people watching is at its peak. But regardless of the season, the Manayunk Brewery is a worthwhile pit stop for great food and craft beer. Housed in an idyllic spot in a former textile mill along the Manayunk Canal, the restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating and some of the best craft beer in Philadelphia. The beer choices change with the seasons and can be purchased in cans or growlers to go. There is a diverse wine and cocktail menu for those who don’t drink beer. The brewery is currently expanding in order to increase its beer production; however, the restaurant will remain open."

Manayunk Brewery & Restaurant Review - Manayunk - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"We’re huge fans of Manayunk Brewery Company, especially their elevated wooden deck where you can look at the Schuylkill River while day drinking on the weekends. They have some in-house beers, but they mostly pour stuff from other breweries, like a fruited sour tripel from Victory Brewing Co. and citrusy pale ale from Yards. Plus, since it doubles as a restaurant, there’s something for everyone in your group like a wood-fired margherita pizza, crispy fish and chips with housemade slaw, and a chicken and shrimp penne pasta that’s drenched in creamy vodka sauce. Enjoy it all on their large outdoor patio where you can watch the sunset over the river in peace." - Candis R. McLean
