New Holland Brewing - Holland Brewpub

Huge place we visited because it was the only place open on Sunday night. Glad we tried it, the food was great! Our server was nice, even though she started off a bit snarky, she got better as the evening went on. My son got a pepperoni pizza, my littles got the kids macaroni and cheese (which is artisanal, and my daughter wouldn’t eat it), kids cheeseburger (son loved it) and the kids chicken tenders (son loved them). The fries are tasty. I got the pepperoni pinwheels as a meal, they were good. My husband got the French dip sandwich, with the Cajun coleslaw, he said all was good and coleslaw was spicy. Not a bad meal and reasonably priced.

Decent place. We got right in, no wait. Spacious. Moderate noise level, decent menu options, and drinks were good. The food was delicious. Then we hit the shop. There are so many goodies to purchase. It's definitely worth a stop after a long day of shopping. Staff was friendly.

The food here is fire! We have mozzarella sticks- the breading is well seasoned & crispy. The Chipotle ranch goes really well with it. The mushroom pizza was super delicious & the apple blue cheese salad had good portions. 10/10 recommend

Great spot for lunch. Our server, Sarah, was super friendly and helpful. We went on a Monday during lunch and it wasn’t busy at all so everything was super quick. The pickle pizza is GREAT!! Great selection of beer. They also offer craft sodas instead of Coke or Pepsi which is a nice bonus!

I was not expecting much when we came to this place, just your basic good beer and pub food, but boy did I get into so much more. Their food was fresh and had excellent flavor we had the pasta, the mushroom pizza, a carnivore pizza and a Chicken sandwich and they were all excellent, not dry, flavor full and the taste profiles all balanced each other in excellent ways. With the souvenir shop again, I didn't think it was going to be great, but do not be fooled by the variety. They do and excellent job of caring, and it translates to the quality of the product. The whisky, rum and cocktails all had great flavor profiles. You could drink the whisky with no ice and it was still a pleasant experience. I would absolutely recommend.

Our first time here was fantastic! We’ve tried their beers before but never been to their taproom. Food’s great, drinks were awesome, ambiance is cool, great selection of merch and to go items, etc. It gets kinda packed around afternoon going to dinner. Shout out to Owen for a great customer service! We’d love to come back here again.

Superb beer and awesome food at a great location. I loved their local beer more than other beers in the menu. The pizza was really well made and the mozzarella sticks were to die for. Service was a bit slow but given how busy the place was, it is totally understandable.

Tried the dragon’s milk IPA (4.5/5), dragon’s milk stout (4/5), dragon’s milk triple mash stout (5:5), ichabod pumpkin ale (2/5), emerald ipa (2/5). There’s a reason the stouts are what they’re known for along with the pepperoni pinwheels. Erin was a great waitress and the back patio was so pleasant.

Nasario at the Holland location was the BEST. So kind & so good at his job. Best service, best drinks, best food- I love this place

nasario is the goat. best server ever. best experience of a lifetime. passion blasters are also good.

Great to return, the beers are reliably good. Did a flight with a couple different dragon's milk beers and a couple seasonal beers. The S'mores dragons milk was probably my favorite whereas the Ichabod was probably the worst (just way too much pumpkin which is the opposite of most pumpkin beers). Food is great too. Elevated bar food classics in many respects. The food is great though - a diverse menu with a number of options, reasonable prices I felt. Service was great as well. Very friendly and helpful, especially as we made a variety of requests related to our daughter, high chair, etc.

Ok. Been coming here since my daughter was a freshman at Hope in 2011. The once constant is the service is horrible. Doesn't matter. Sit at the bar or table, the are trained in ignoring you. It is a difficult skill, but they have perfected it here. 14 years of poor service has to be a record. Does management train this? They must. I mean, you sit down and you can count on 10 + minutes of wait time before they even acknowledge you. And this is at the bar. Came back again today for the first time in a few years and was shocked that nothing changed. I came in this afternoon and the cool dude in the bandana ignored me for at least 10 minutes. The best thing was there were only 2 people at the bar, a waitress who was cute and off from her shift and me. I actually sat closer to her since muscle memory kicked in and I saw where his attention was and the Tigers were on down there and I wanted to watch that. Yet I'd waited another 10 minutes for him to acknowledge me. He eventually served me and (the only reason I give this place 2 stars is the beer is great) my beer was outstanding. Took another 10 minutes after I finished to get a check. Yes 1 and done since I had other things to do. I decided Cash would be best since it would be forever to get him to do a cc. This was all with an empty bar. But wait! It only gets better. Like an idiot, I left Our Brewery and came here since I really love the Dragon Milk. So stupid! Sat down at a semi empty bar. I was ignored, since that is policy here for at least 10+ minutes. Don't worry, I loved watching whatever stupid chef program was on...no seriously love that crap...NOT. Finally, after the bartender (female now) completely ignored me, I just said "Hey, I want a Dragon's Milk. She stopped and asked what size. I told here and was temporarily happy. 10 oz. Goes down quickly and 15 minutes later I wanted something else. Once again the incredible waiting game. Back and forth she walked to other customers and ignored me (and I am a big tipper for big service). Finally I had to just shout out my order. She informed me it was last call in 30 minutes, so I said, "just 1." Got my beer. Now it is 30 minutes later and all I want to do is pay. Please dear Lord, remind me of this the next time I am in Holland! Only buy their beer in the store. The frustration is not worth it. I am a really nice person and not a dick, but this just sets me off. Our from now on. I warned you. YMMV.

First time back to New Holland in a while! I love the beer and was excited to be able to have it on tap at the brewery. I ordered a maple cinnamon dragon's milk. It was so good! We also ordered a chicken pizza to share and it was delicious! 100 percent recommend you stop by while in Holland!

We had amazing time today at this brewery. I got the Turkey BLT and my spouse got the hot chicken pizza. It was delicious!! I really loved the dragons milks gold beer. Love this place!!

I absolutely love New Holland brewery. It is one of the true gems of the city of Holland.

I don't think you can go wrong with a stop at New Holland Brewing. The drink selection is way more expansive than it used to be. The menu has a little something for everyone. The wait staff was very personable and friendly. One of our food orders came with something we wanted removed and they were very accommodating to fix that for us. It wasn't expected nor did we complain, but he noticed and fixed it.

Our 3rd New Holland Brewing stop on our road trip! And, this is the flagship location, which we really appreciated the vibes!

Went to the New Holland brewery. We couldn't get a table for dinner so we went to the bar and got a couple of beers in a to go cup that you can walk around a 3 block area with open container. We got a peachy haze and a crimson keep beer. The haze was very fruity with a very hopped after finish. It was very good. The crimson keep is a red ale aged in a bourbon barrel cast . This is a strong ale we'll hopped with a spicy finish but fell short on the fullness of body. The bartender was so busy I didn't catch his name. But he was hustling. After shopping and dinner at another restaurant we came back for a dragon's milk beer which is a stout beer aged in a bourbon cast . This beer hits all the marks. Rich full bodied great finish. This is my all time favorite beer on tap. There is also a to go shop that we bought a selection to bring home all in all a great night.

We were looking for something open late to grab a bite to eat. It was almost 9, everything was closed, and we were starving. We stumbled across New Holland Brewing. When we got there, we found out the kitchen was closing in just a few minutes. The waitress said we could still order food so we were relieved. We sat out on the patio and it was beautiful out. The food was great and drinks were good too! My husband said he wished they had a larger selection of in house brews.

We were a large group of 12 and hangry, ordered a bunch of burgers and some of the veggie folks got the black bean burger and were a bit charred or overly well done. Their pizzas were on point, the veggie and chicken pesto were both good. The appetizers were bar-friendly hummus and veggies, and parmesan fries. Salad's were pretty good.Overall, a decent experience.

We visited this spot during our trip to Holland. It was packed, but we were able to get on the waitlist and were told to return in about an hour. When we came back, they hadn't saved a spot for us and admitted they'd forgotten to call, though they managed to seat us shortly afterward. It felt a bit unorganized. Once seated, we ordered a few appetizers and some beer on tap. The food was phenomenal and more than made up for the wait. The atmosphere here is very casual, with a great selection of food and drinks, including cocktails. We tried the queso, cheese curds, and nachos, all of which were fantastic. This seems to be one of the most popular spots in the area--worth the visit!

The service was great! And of course the beer was amazing. I got the Dragon's Milk Reserve (YUM). We all split the chicky chicky parm parm pizza, and there wasn't a slice left! The sauce was extra yummy and flavorful. The restaurant was clean and I loved the minimal Dutch decorations. I'd love to visit here again whenever I come back to Michigan!

The atmosphere was great, your average bar & eatery with a more rustic approach. I ordered the double cheeseburger with a side of Great Lakes Chip Co. Kettle Chips that were made in Traverse City! The burger was good, very juicy and a good two slabs of meat, the cheese was also perfectly melted on top! The service was very fast I got my drink within 3 minutes of sitting down and then my food about 20 minutes after that, I was also in a party of 6 and they got their food at the same time! The only complaint was that the waitress was a bit rude but it isn't an easy job, so I can't really blame her too much.

actually obsessed with the winter painkiller slushie and haven't stopped thinking about it since i came here a month ago!!! I even tried to recreate it at home!!! (ofc not as good) new holland is a sweet spot to come watch a game or hang with friends for a meal !! i think it has a great vibe and a great place to cozy up in the winter for sure. you have to make reservations for seating but the bar is first come first serve and you can order food as well!

Went this weekend to celebrate our friends birthday! We had a reservation so we got sat at a high top in the bar right away! The service was very slow and had inaccurate information on specials. I got the lake life seltzer (cherry limeade) and it was delicious!!!! For dinner, I ordered a large BBQ Chicken Pizza with pineapple added. It came out very fast but was missing jalapeños (that is comes with..) It was a nice dinner to celebrate our birthday girl!

Excellent food, excellent service and excellent BEER & COCKTAILS!! What more can you ask for? Definitely recommend a stop here if you are ever Holland, Michigan.

Stopped in with 2 brothers, one of which lives in GR, and was surprised by the size and height of the ceilings! Very impressive! There was a good crowd, but we sat right away. Looking at the beer menu, couldn't decide, so I ordered a flight of 4 different beers and the Nitro Irish Stout was my favorite. There was a nice selection of food and we started out with the spinach/artichoke dip and had a bbq pork sandwich that was very good. Good beer, good food made for the perfect afternoon!

Tried a few beers with a 10 oz pour. All were excellent. Had dry rub chicken sandwich for dinner. Best I've had. Great service in the beer garden in back. Great place! Highly recommend.

I visited New Holland Brewpub last Sunday night and I have a big fan of their Dragon's Milk as I am a huge stout guy. The brewpub has a great location in downtown Holland. The vibe is contemporary and it's is a very nice brewery with lots of seating inside with TVs at the bar. They also have an outdoor beer garden, but it wasn't open as it's in the middle of winter. I arrived around 6:30pm and they had trivia going on. They had a ton of food options with a big menu. Also, I didn't realize that they made their own liquor as well so they had quite a cocktail menu. I ordered a 5oz of Dragon's Milk and Dragon's Milk Crimson Keep each. Both beers were awesome and they were $3.50/each. I ordered the Pepperoni Pinwheels, which were awesome, and I had to do a pizza review so I ordered a medium margherita pizza. The pinwheels were unique and the dough was extremely fresh. There was a lot of pepperoni and melted mozzarella sprinkled with parmesan. The sauces were very good as well! However, the pizza was a different story. The mozzarella cheese was solid and probably the best part as it had decent flavor. The pizza was overly dry as it probably sat under the lamp too long. You can even see that the basil was somewhat black/burnt. The crust was pretty flavorless due to it being overcooked slightly. I did not like the cherry tomatoes as they are always mushy when cooked on a pizza. Overall, the pizza was not good and it was a bad night for the pizza-makers. Crust: 3 Cheese: 5 Sauce: 3 Toppings: 3 Overall: 3.5 Prices were extremely good to me as the cost of living in Holland is much lower than Chicago. $15/medium pizza, $14/app, and $7/pints. The bartenders were friendly and the food came out fast. Overall, I am a fan of New Holland Brewery as they had solid food, great beer, and a great vibe. The pizza could have been way better, but that's ok and I am sure their other dishes are better as the Pepperoni Pinwheels were great!

We had a reservation on Mother's Day at 1 and the sat us right when we walked in at 12:55. The staff was fantastic, they were patient despite the crowd and were attentive. The space was clean and comfortable and the patio was lovey. The pickle pizza was amazing. I was shocked too, but try it. The tomato bisque was nice and light, very tomato/herb soups feeling. The loaded baked potato soup was also amazing - thinner broth with chunks of potatoes. The kids chicken fingers were excellent and turkey club sandwich was also good. Though next time we would just get two pizzas! Looking forward to coming back here next time we are in town.

We stopped here after visiting Windmill Island for the Tulip Festival. It's a short drive over and we luckily found street parking available. It's great weather so Holland is packed with families enjoying the tulips and all that downtown has to offer. This restaurant has a laid back vibe and the staff are all very accommodating. We had reservations for 12:15 but arrived at 11:20 because we got into town so early to see the tulips. The host came through the line waiting to go in asking if anyone had reservations. I said we did but that we were way early. He still pulled us out of line and got us seated. I appreciated that - we were pretty hungry! Our server, Kayla, was excellent - she was really personable and very helpful with our decision-making. I appreciated her insights because we loved our meals. We had the Dragon's Share Cherry Selzter and the Dragons Milk Old Fashioned for drinks. The seltzer was excellent - you can really taste the cherry flavor but it wasn't sweet. Very easy going down. The Old Fashioned is made with their signature syrup, which has notes of chocolate and coffee. It was not bitter at all - very smooth. We ordered the hot pretzels that came with an onion cheese and hot mustard. I don't care for spicy mustard but the cheese was good. We both had the Apple Walnut Salad and it is served with the dressing on the side. I liked that - we all have different ideas of the "right" amount of dressing so this way, we controlled our own amount. This salad was outstanding...the lettuce was mostly made up of butter lettuce, which is so rare to come by in Michigan restaurants (it's everywhere in California, I've noticed). There were apples, dried cherries, blue cheese along with the walnuts...such a great taste! If you enjoy craft brews you absolutely must stop by and try their Dragons Milk brand products...S'mores and Stroop Waffle are two of my husband's favorites. They also have a store so you can pick up some to go!

Pizza no tasted at all. Salad grill chickens so dry and terrible. Chili soups and all appetizers not tasted at all. Sorry

This is the place to cozy up in this winter! Excellent service, excellent cocktails, comfortable atmosphere, delicious appetizer. We ordered the Etole with tortilla chips. We will be returning very soon to try other offerings.

We sat in the patio and it was comfortable. The staff were nice. The beer selection was good! I enjoyed their lighter beers. The food was mediocre, but a nice compliment to the beer.

Good food and enjoyed the beer. As I recall it was a fruit mix, but was refreshing on a hot day. Enjoyed the pretzels as a mid-day snack.

Great sandwiches, wonderful beer selection, reasonable prices. BUT: NOISE. Like Adam J says, very different depending on where you are. Inside (only choice in winter) it's deafening. Forget about talking to table mates in the big room if there are more than 2 (who can sit side by side). The noise level on the small side (booths) is better. Outside is more more pleasant but also more uncomfortable if out back in beer garden. Best compromise in good weather is when they open up the window fronts and you can get one of the few spots in that space.

One of my all-time favorite restaurants downtown Holland. I order their takeout quite frequently, and it's always delicious, hot, and the text updates make it so easy to know when my food is done and to head over. I visited recently with a friend and they accommodated us (we didn't want to sit at a high top) and seated us in a separate section. The food was delicious and came out quickly allowing us to enjoy our lunch and time socializing without overrunning my break. I highly recommend the pizza pinwheels. They're absolutely my favorite, and I usually go for regular ranch, though I've heard from many who enjoy spicy food that their chipolte ranch is great as well. The restaurant is usually on the louder side, even when they're not busy, but it doesn't really feel "too loud," but rather casual and inviting. During the summer, I recommend sitting outside if their patio is open. It's lovely

Very very nice place. We got food and drinks there, all of it was good. The service was very nice as well. I'll go back if I'm ever in Holland again.

We had a fabulous time visiting one of Pabst Brewing Company's partners New Holland Brewing Company. The food was delicious but the beer and mixed drinks were even better! We ate on the patio and it was perfect weather. They have a TV outside and we even visited their gift shop. Shout out to the amazing waitress Tiffany that brought out our food & drinks quickly and made us laugh. Definitely would recommend New Holland Brewery & come here again!

OMG this place was so good we went twice in one weekend. On the way too and on our way back from Mackinac. What we ordered: -soft pretzels with beer cheese: absolutely amazing!!! I am not usually a huge fan of soft pretzels but this one blew my mind, especially paired with the beer cheese. -chicken sandwich: we both got this one because of how tasty it was. Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned (dragon), and perfectly dressed. Again, I am not a big chicken sandwich girl but this one had just the right crunch yet also melted in your mouth. No gross textures that typically scare me away. -Rueben: I got this first and loved it. I always like Ruebens but am typically skeptical because I am picky with my corned beef. This Rueben was cooked great and had thin slices, which is my preference. I asked for extra thousand island sauce in the side for dipping. -pulled pork sandwich: partner got this one and he loved it as well. -fries: great!! You'd be surprised that people can make bad fries, but it is possible. Here, they make really good fries. -beer: partner said it was just okay. I cannot remember what he got. Service was wonderful. I did ask someone for the extra sauce who seemed to forget but when I finally saw our waitress she got it for me. When they get busy the service comes around less often, but that's to be expected. I liked that there were always so many people there, there was outdoor seating in the front and a beautiful beer garden in the back. The inside walls had giant windows that opened up to the outside which was also lovely. So, even if you end up inside, you can still get a taste of the outdoors.

Good pizza, good beer, great setting. Sat in the beer garden on one of the hottest days. You are under cover but no fans to move the air but since it was after 7 pm it wasn't too bad. Would come back if in town

Good music, heated patio, warm food and good beer, what more could you ask for?! Located in the adorable downtown shopping area, the New Holland Brewery is just what we hoped for on a Saturday in October. The heated, covered Beergarden was a delightful experience on a cool fall evening. We started with beer, followed by some appetizers. The Ichabod is one if Community Tap beers where they make a donation ti a local Jon-profit when we one is ordered. It was a light, Pumpkin Ale, very drinkable and went well with the Pretzels and Beer cheese. Next we ordered the Elote Corn dip which was good but wished it had a little more cilantro, lime or even crab to give it a little something more. Katie was great, took good care of us and we will definitely visit again!

We were in town and decided to give this a try, we've had dragons milk in a bottle before so figured we would try this place out. This is THE LARGEST brewery/ or restaurant I have ever been inside. It was clean, not busy, but the weather was beautiful outside so we sat on the patio. The locals were very kind and chatty. The elote dip was bomb- rich with that cream cheese- who could resist- we couldn't we ate the entire thing although it was a large portion. In the flight I got a cherry limeade, kombucha, smores dragon milk 11%-it's hot, and a floralish beer. I didn't love any of them really, but I think I finished the cherry lime and kombucha first. The smores dragon milk burned my throat- I can't handle that high of abv. If I came back it would be for the dip.

This is a Holland Staple! My friends and Family love coming here. Great drinks, great food.

A little disappointed that we waited two hours to get a table to only be told they were out of multiple drinks that we wanted. We did end up trying a few other drinks that were great though. The dragons milk old fashioned is probably the best old fashioned I've ever had. The dragons milk coffee and chocolate was also very good. This place is very packed on a Friday and Saturday, just a fair warning!

Fun brewery with solid food options. The beer list is long and there is something for every beer drinker. I visited just before Halloween and they had some fall themed seasonal cocktails also. For apps the wings and pepperoni pinwheels are so good. Chicken Caesar was too fishy for me. My group liked their dishes and it was a good time.

I love mostly all of new Hollands beers and wanted to enjoy them with food at their brewery and restaurant. They were out of their limited edition 25th anniversary but I was able to have a few other dragon's milk beers including a triple mash 5 ounce pour. The beers were fantastic as expected. My entree was a medium spiced chicken sandwich that was average along with the warm fries and distracted service by the young waiter. Large split dining areas with a covered patio. Numerous bathrooms. Somewhat loud. Clean. I would definitely return for the beer and might try something else on the menu.

Food and drinks are good and decently priced, server was very rude and felt burdened just by taking our order. Would not come again.

Very quick and friendly service. The place was huge! Went at a busy time (tulip time at lunch) and was seated right away. The food was magnificent. I am not a huge beer drinker but I love brewery food. We got the pizza rolls and elote corn dip for appetizers. I LOVED both of these. I love a restaurant that has these type of pizza rolls. We also got a chicken salad sandwich and it was great!

***ATTENTION OWNER Walked in with a group of 12 and the "manager" would not serve us because 2 people in the group were holding coffees from Starbucks. We probably would have spent $600 here but the manager was confident he nor the owner did not need our business. The place was empty so I'm pretty darn sure the owner does not approve of this type of management. Someone needs to get ahold of the owner and let them know what is going on in their establishment. This clearly explains why the restaurant across the street is so busy with mediocre food and Holland Brewing Co is dead with better food.... I have been in the restaurant industry for 35 years and when a group of 12 walk in you pull out the red carpet, you don't deny service for a couple of 12oz coffees... all of this occurred while other patrons looked on with disgust.

Good brews and good sandwiches. Would recommend, if you are in the area. I had the Nashville hot fried chicken sandwich this time, and it was rather delicious. I would have liked it to be spicier, but this is a good temperature for the Midwest. I had the triple mash and the continental brunchtime this time and my girlfriend had the found money (me and passion blaster. Most of what is on tap is available in stores, but they also have the pub exclusives you should try.

Had a lovely dinner here on our first night in Holland! Our reservation was for 8:30, and we got there a bit early and they sat us no problem, which was impressive for a Friday. Our pizzas were the highlight of our whole trip! The crust was perfectly cooked and our pizzas were so fresh. I had the pizza of the month, Jalepeno Popper and it was DIVINE. There's a cute little shop attached with glassware, stickers, and beer to take home. Everyone working was friendly. Cool place!

Time to update this review, six years later! New Holland is always a must for me when I'm visiting Holland - I'm not a big beer drinker but I LOVE their pickle pizza, minus the bacon; it has melted cheese curds on it and is super delicious. They do take reservations and I was able to make a reservation for six of us (four adults, two babies) a few weeks in advance. Waitservice is always fast and friendly here too, and don't forget to check out the Sidecar next door for more beer and also other things.

My husband and I visited New Holland Brewing after walking around downtown Holland and really enjoyed our experience! We were there on a Saturday afternoon and were able to snag two chairs at the bar, so there was no wait for us! My husband ordered a beer (I can't recall which one), but the real star of the show was the Not So Loco Mocktail! The drink was absolutely delicious, and if you wanted to make it a cocktail, I think rum would go well in it! The vibe of the bar was nice - it was fairly loud, which is to be expected, but also very nice! We will have to come back again next time we are in town!

Just the best. Lots of great memories have been made here. Been going here for 20+ years.

My go-to restaurant when I'm in Holland! They truly never disappoint!! Their pepperoni pinwheels are a MUST!!! I also am a huge fan of their pesto grilled cheese and tomato soup. Everything is always so yummy, the staff is consistently friendly and attentive, and the vibes are always so fun! 10/10 always!

We had lunch here during tulip time and enjoyed it. The food is premade, so you can't make any modifications, but we enjoyed it nonetheless. The service was okay. It was difficult to get our waitress to come back for refills.
