Victory Brewing Company Downingtown

Loved my visit to Victory. The food was delicious and the menu offered a ton of great options. I had the buffalo boneless wings and they were great. The rotating selection of beers is also great and keeps you wanting to come back. They also have a small gift shop where you can get swag and beer.

I've traveled across the country and tried 100+ breweries. Victory is hands down easily tied for #1 in my book. Its just that good. Food is great, everything on the menu is good. The cheese curds are to die for. Every beer is unique and amazing in its own way, I havent disliked a single beer. Highly recommend!

Live nearby and beer is pretty good although I wish they had more under the “innovations” category in order to get me to come in more. Food is pretty good but I feel like I have to mention that the new hot honey wings are so bad. All the other sauces I had before from the old menu were good but the hot honey had barely any sauce and was basically just bland fried chicken. My wife really enjoyed her new grilled cheese sandwich. Service is ALWAYS amazing.

Loved everything about my experience! I never post reviews, but felt like I had to leave a great review after grabbing food and drinks here. The staff was especially great to interact with— Chelby was hilarious and made sure everything about our visit was excellent. Will definitely come back next time I’m in the area!

We a classic cheese burger with fries and the Big Ruben sandwich with chips, all of it was delicious! Also tried their root beer which is made in house, hubby had the IPA Brotherly Shove. Both were good. Stephanie A was our server. She was very friendly and attentive. Sorry , no pictures of our food because we were hungry! We will be coming back again.

I've driven past the back of the restaurant numerous times, and I always thought it was a factor. Because the restaurant is tucked away. I've never been to Victory Brewing Company before (Since I am not much of a beer drinker), and I was told they have some pretty good food. We decided to give it a try, and I was not disappointed. *Restaurant: 5/5 *Service: 4/5 *Food: 4/5 *Parking: Free Parking Lot -Restaurant- I was surprised at how open the restaurant was when I first walked in. There's a nice area on the left for people to buy beers to go, as well as any merchandise for anyone interested. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside. There's also a bar area, and a private area. Everything's clean and organized. In addition, I was also told they offer brewery tours for anyone interested. -Service- Hostesses are friendly. Our 1st waiter was only there long enough to provide us with drinks, as well as some light beer samples for me to try due to a shift change, I assume. (I love this, especially for someone who doesn't drink beer and wants to try different varieties.) Our replacement waitress is friendly and accommodating. -Food- What we ordered: -Fried Mozzarella Cheese Curds (Very good, I normally do not like Mozzarella sticks because of the texture. But these bite size Cheese Curds are perfect, light, airy and flavorful) -Classic Fried Pickles (Not a huge fan of this one. Way too salty) -DirtWolf BBQ Pizza (Good) -Boneless Korean BBQ Wings (Very good) -Classic buffalo Breaded Wings (Very good) -Fish and Chips (Very good, one of the best Fish and Chips I've had.) It is nicely breaded and doesn't fall apart like some of the other Fish and Chips I've had. The only thing I did not like about it was the Chips (Fries). I was not aware it came with Cajun fries. But their regular fries are just perfect, crispy on the outside and soft inside. In conclusion: I would definitely go again. If not for beer, at least for the good food.

Victory Brewing in Downingtown is a true local gem. I've been coming here since I was a kid, and it never disappoints. The beer selection is fantastic, offering a great mix of options for any craft beer enthusiast. Their wings are my absolute favorite—crispy, flavorful, and always spot on. The service is always friendly, and I’ve never had to wait for a table. It’s a solid spot to grab a bite and drink, and I’d consider it a landmark in the area. Highly recommend!

Visited Victory Downingtown recently and have 0 complaints. Dining room was clean and energetic, and service was excellent. My server Michael went above and beyond with accommodations for drinks and food and ensured everything that touched our table was top notch. I believe just from watching the service around us that all their servers are great but Michael was the best!

We hadn't been back for a while and decided to come in Saturday for a late lunch. The place was filled with quite a few families. We asked for a table near the windows(they were all open). Of course we got the table closest to the beer display and 1/2 a window. We started with the pretzel which was good but expected more from the cheese sauce and mustard which were a bit flat. A couple of us shared the large hot honey pizza which was a decent pie. However, no way was this a 16" pie. I took some home and clearly the radius of the pie was 7" or a 14" pie. Do some Middle school math and this one inch difference means the pie is only 25% smaller than you expect. Server was clearly wishing she was anywhere else. Not an experience that would make me return.

Good selection of beers. The Golden Monkey at 9.5% is well worth the money and even non-beer drinkers like myself enjoyed it. Service was a little slow but they were super busy. It was a little loud, BUT it's a bar so that's expected. We didn't check the rooftop out because it was too hot but we may check it out in the fall. I know a lot of places are making the gender neutral bathrooms, but I didn't really like these bathrooms and the way the sinks were set up. I didn't really appreciate fixing my face and then a guy coming out of a stall still zipping up his fly and then making eye contact with me as he was washing his hands because of the round sink layout. That may just be me, but something I noted.

I've been a fan of Victory IPA for quite a while. Planning a trip to Downingtown this past weekend, I found through Yelp that the Victory Brewery was right in town. My wife and stepson joined me in grabbing a beer and appetizers. This brewery is large with plenty of seating. We sat at the bar which was very nice. I had the Brotherly Love Hazy IPA which was perfect on this hot July afternoon. We shared apps of Loaded Fries and the Bavarian Pretzel. It was a lot of fun enjoying the food in this fun atmosphere. Our servers were also great about giving us sample of the different beers. If you like visiting new breweries, I definitely recommend stopping here if you're in the area.

So impressed with the food for a brewery! Came here after some shopping in the area with a friend and we both really enjoyed our entrées! We shared the soft pretzel as a starter and forgot to take a picture because we were so hungry and it looked so good we dug right in! Our server was very nice and we loved that you could get the beers in a mini size to try the different varieties! If you need to pick up a six pack or growler you can do so while you are there having dinner! They have a wide variety of options between tasty bar food and some healthier salads and bowls! Will definitely be back!

Arron, our server is amazing! He gets a 5! He was very responsive to dietary issues and followed through. Uncharacteristicly, our food was not served together. A 10 minute separation from the kitchen. Hey, things happen, but that's a 4. At Victory small issues are washed away with great beer. A true gem to the brewing universe.

Victory is a classic. Their beer is everywhere in PA, so it's always a treat to visit the source. Their beer list is never lacking - something for everyone with a mix of IPAs (HopDevil), Belgian styles (Gold Monkey), Stouts (Storm King), and everything in between, including sodas and Southern Tier liquors. They have a vast bar, nightly drink/ food specials, the occasional trivia night, and lots of TVs, if sports are your thing. The footprint of this space is massive and open, meaning sometimes the acoustics are bad, and it can get a bit loud. That said, whether you're with friends, family (kiddos included!), solo or on date, Victory is worth a stop. Their parking lot is huge, too. They have a good selection of fun merch and to-go. The thing is, I've never been WOWed by their food. Wings, pizzas, sandwiches - their food menu is not huge (which I appreciate) and they have a good bit of variety (which I also appreciate), but it's just not...memorable? I've eaten here a few times, and I can't really tell you what we ate. We come more for the beer and the vibes, and in that realm, we never leave disappointed.

Came to Victory on a quiet Saturday afternoon! Food was great and restaurant was clean but our server Maxwell was odd. He would stare off while we were talking and ordering. He would also reached over our heads to grab food and check almost hitting me in the head! He never came to ask if the food was good or if we needed more drinks! The table was also very sticky.

Beer is great, food is amazing, and Aaron rules as a server. Plus it's a great place to bring the kids. It's my 3yr old's favorite restaurant.

We had a party of 30+ and Erica C handled our entire party seamlessly! We were in town for a lacrosse tournament , and most of our team and parents needed a place to eat. It was all amazing! She handled it all perfectly! And food and drinks were amazing!

Great food, great service, even better beer! Erica was a fantastic server and super knowledgeable on the beer selection. Must visit if in downingtown.

The air conditioning has not been working for years now since the new owners took over. During the summer, all the bartenders are visibly sweating and look very uncomfortable. The chairs and the barstools are very hard and uncomfortable. The portion sizes are shrinking.

Cheesesteak recommended by the server was the worst I've ever had- drowned in the most awful tasting cheese wiz. Inedible. Boneless wings were chicken tenders with some premade garlic Parmesan sauce. Barely edible. We thought the fries came with it but were charged separately for a side of fries. Don't go!

Food aight but small portions. This place requires two orders to fill a growing boy up. Overall good service and good place to go with friends but is hella loud.

A large, spacious, fun brewery serving up a delicious selection of hand crafted foods and beers! This spot is great for a big group where everyone likes different things. Their beer selection is pretty good, some beers better than others but we appreciated their option of flights (5 beers to taste!) so we could try them all. We were truly wowed with our food and the friendliness of everyone we encountered and will gladly make the trip again!

Gross! Ordered takeout. There was a fly on my second bite of nachos. We threw everything away. What a waste. I was refunded for the nachos but not the entire meal, which we discarded because we were so grossed out. Emailed Kyle to get a full refund but never heard back.

I recently visited this Victory Restaurant in Downingtown for the first time and the atmosphere was very pleasant and nice on a Saturday! Aside from the fact that my server Lauren was very gorgeous and beautiful beyond all measure she was also very efficient with bringing the salad I ordered out very quickly and smoothly and I felt at ease and relaxed around her! She was very smart and an excellent conversationalist and knew how to give a customer the red carpet treatment! I would highly recommend asking for her if u are looking for great service and an interesting and fantastic time at the Downingtown Victory restaurant! Greg N. from Hatboro, Pa.

Aaron B was a great waiter. The music was wonderful and the peach pier had notes of echinacea.

Lucy was amazing. We had a large party and she was able to manage our every need and was very patient with us. Great service.

Great beer and food! I Excellent service. All the bartenders and wait staff are outstanding! Especially Abbie behind the bar!! She's awesome. They all make it a fun place to experience real craft brewing in Downingtown!

The food was awesome. The service was spectacular - thanks Kara. Great experience!! Will be coming back again and probably ordering the same thing!!

Service was amazing as was the food!!! We came for a soccer tournament and there was many groups that came in at the same time. Service and food came out quickly and correctly. Well done!!! Keep it up, we will be back next year!

Went for wing night. Shelby A was a terrible server. Had to ask several times for Mayo. Had to ask more than once for my wife's soda refil. Wings came out without any napkins at all on our table. I asked Shelby politely for napkins while my wings got cold. She proceeded to walk around to other tables to take orders etc. I waited for 15 minutes for napkins at which point I went to the bar and asked the bartender for napkins. Shelby watched me go to the bar and get napkins and finally showed up 2 minutes later with the napkins I had requested almost 20 minutes earlier. Most of the servers at victory will bring napkins out as soon as a wing order is made because everyone knows how messy it can get. Ruined my experience. Shelby knew i was not happy despite the fact that I did not complain directly to her. I regret not saying anything to Shelby or victory management about the terrible service. Normally on victory receipts they have a qr code that you can scan at the top to pay online. I am normally a 20% tipper unless something is egregiously wrong in this case I probably would have reduced my tip to 5-10% but Shelby ripped the qr code off of the top of the receipt so that she could stand there with the card reader and monitor my tip activity. (See pic). My wife persuaded me not to talk to the manager on my way out, again which I regret not complaining in person.

The food is very good as well. The service is very fast and the food is very good. The ambiance is very loud because of all of the people that go to victory brewing company in downingotown pa

I'm a local and stop by maybe once a month to meet friends for a beer. Wish the food was better. Ambiance: Clean, open, warehouse feel. Service: Friendly Drinks: Pass on the mixed drinks, it's a brewery. If you like Victory beers - this place is for you! If not, there are many other brewery options in the area. Food: Below average bar food, frozen, tasted freezer burn. Restrooms: Clean. Parking: On site, plenty of spaces. Value: Meh, overpriced below average bar food. Eat before and come here for Victory beers, if you like them. They are open daily.

Wednesday is our wing Wednesday where we meet as a family with friends. Victory wings are the best in this area and the beer menu has a nice variety to choose from. Our waiter Aaron not only provided attentive service, his sense of humor fit right in. Highly recommend Victory for a casual night out.

Erica was an awesome server. She was very attentive and hospitable. Great dinner out!

Victory Brewing's Golden Monkey is my brother-in-law's all time favorite beer. We're from California so it's hard to find Golden Monkey around here. However when I was living in San Diego, oddly enough several local liquor stores carried Golden Monkey and at one point I bought out a couple of stores' inventory to give to my BIL. We were in Philly for my cousin's wedding and coincidentally we were staying nearby in Exton. Of course our first stop had to be Victory Brewing. I'm actually not a huge beer fan but since I've heard good things about Victory Brewing my mom and I thought we'd share a flight. From the several that I tasted, I like Brotherly Love the best. The food was pretty good too. It was St. Patrick's Day and also a Friday of Lent so none of us could have meat except my parents since they're seniors lol. I got the fish burger and my sister got the fish & chips, my parents got the Philly cheesesteak and we ordered fried pickles for the table. We even got the St. Patrick's brownie for dessert. From all the food, I liked the fried pickles the best! Highly recommend. Over server was really nice. We enjoyed our visit and even left with a few souvenirs from their gift shop.

We love Victory. Kara always takes care of us and is super attentive, never an empty beer! Everyone should check it out, trivia night is a great night to go!

Food and Beer were amazing! Aaron our server was amazing!! So helpful with beer and food suggestions. We will be back and I will make sure we sit in Aaron's section!

5 star experience but 4 stars for the food. Celebrated a birthday and got rewards on the app. Menu options are smaller than I remember Nachos: 3/5 really love this style of chip, but wish there were more toppings. Chicken was very thick and unappetizing to look at. Unconventional nacho choice. Pretzel: pretzel was good, liked the cheese sauce, but thought it would be bigger and the mustard had a weird soapy aftertaste that I wasn't expecting. Cheesesteak was good and I would get that again. House Salad has red wine vinaigrette (not pictured) and fries are good, good portion. Burrito: Burrito was huge! BBQ flavored was interesting. Not sure if I would get again though. Great service though and cool to have live music- just three guys guitar bass and drums but they were good .

This may have been a better experience if we were beer drinkers, so I can only talk about the food and service. We went here with a group of 8 after a soccer tournament and only had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated. The server brought us water right away, but didn't return to take our orders for a while. We had to flag her down to tell her we were ready and STARVING. Our friends ordered coffees and they were not hot. Luke warm to the point they could drink the whole cup immediately. Our server kept forgetting things that we had asked for with our food when we ordered and didn't get it the first time. We were able to split the checks among 3 of us, as the orders were taken by seat location, but even then items were not accurate on everyone's checks. I would probably not eat here again as none of us were really raving about any of the food we got.

We love victory, and have been routine patrons, but these last two experiences were less than appetizing. I don't think either one of our waitresses wanted to work that day, and the only way I can describe them is rude. I doubt we will return.

Me and a few friends were in yesterday had a few drinks and appetizers we enjoyed ourselves

Great date night spot in Downingtown! We love the music on Friday! The menu and beers are also great! Service is always great too!

Aaron was an incredible server. A+ service and all around cool dude. the Food was fantastic as was the alcohol. Highly recommend.

Servers and staff that delivered food were amazing!! The Manager was EXTREMELY rude to my girlfriend that was just not satisfied with something that she ordered. I watched the Manager go over to the servers and belittled them. Gave them all a cold shoulder. It was crazy watching this all go down. The server AND the person that brought our food actually came over to apologize for that manager being such a jerk. The rest of the time we were there, that same Manager sat at the Bar and was drinking!! So unacceptable for a manager to act like this. My girlfriend loves going there when we can get a babysitter for a date night, which is rare!!! Thanks for ruining our date, Ms. General Manager. I don't think we will go back and rest assure we will let our friends know about this.

I don't get to visit Victory very often. I have been a fan since Hop Devil first came out. I love coming here, funny bartender Mike seems to be here on the few occasions I get to visit annually. Mike and the other bartenders took great care of me for a quick late lunch on my way home. I sat at the end of the bar and talked to a few regulars. Wow it was great to find Hop Ranch on tap! One of my favorites. I also took a few crowlers home as I didn't have any growlers with me. Friday is $10 growler fills; that's a great deal. I had a great meat lovers pizza with plenty of sausage, bacon, and pepperoni. I also came in to get some bourbon from Southern Tier. I bought the bond, rye, and small cask. I also like their S'mores but the didn't have any today. This is a great open venue, plenty of indoor and out door seating. The walk from the parking lot came be a little long when they are busy. Love the merch shop with plenty of awesome shirts, beer, liquor, etc. right inside the door by the host/ess stand.

A big, spacious brew pub with plenty of food and brew offerings. The food is better than expected and we've enjoyed burgers, wings, hot sandwiches, calamari and more. The atmosphere is louder, energetic and exciting. There's plenty of space, so you can do your own thing and not feel like you're trying to talk over the other guests around you. If you're a fan of Victory, and you look bar & grill food, this is a great stop while in Downingtown.

Food was surprisingly good! We ordered cheese curds that were perfectly fried and seasoned. Everyone enjoyed their burgers and I took a risk with the Caprese burger special (only $6 during happy hour!) and was really happy with it. Meat was flavorful and perfectly cooked. Wings were also great. Some in our party didn't enjoy the Fish Tacos though. I would have given this 5 stars but our waitress was kinda rude and off-putting. The space is large and open which is great if you don't like being crowded in a bar setting.

The duo of Anna and Kelly is always a welcome site when I stop in for lunch. Both are very friendly and kind with great knowledge of the beers on tap. Also, the new chicken tenders are delicious! Very happy they are now on the menu.

Brewery review haiku ... Great beer and food stop Their food has come a long way Love me some dirtwolf

I've never had a bad experience at Victory out of the 10 or so times that I've been. The service is good, the waiters are friendly, the atmosphere is nice, the prices are really great during happy hour. It's probably the best happy hour you can find in the area, between drinks and apps. The food is always hot and fresh too. I think it's underrated because how renowned the beer is. The beer is top notch, of course. My personal favorite, berry monkey, is to die for. The monkey beers are pretty much all over the entire east coast at this point. My buddies were drinking some down in FL, as well as VA. Great to hear the big time success that has come out of this place. Be sure to hit this D-town classic. I always look forward to getting back. Their merch is pretty sweet too!

Came for a group event and had a great time. If you like beer and pizza, Victory elevates it to a new level. If you don't- there's still plenty to enjoy! The food was all very fresh and presented cleanly. The standout was the mini philly cheesesteaks. Everyone raved about them and they disappeared quickly. But the pizzas were awesome and the toppings much better quality than expected which was a lovely surprise. The desserts were fine- bread pudding with a lot of warm spicy layers of flavor. I would pass on the cinnamon pretzel bites- they were just hard nuggets and the cinnamon overwhelmed the flavor. The vanilla sauce however was insanely on point and I'd drown regular pretzel bites in that for days. The beer hall is open high cielings (cause brewery) and can get loud, the air had trouble keeping up with the crowd and heat, and for groups in the future I recommend they get a mic system in place. I was also impressed with the service- the assigned waiters never stopped moving in 2 hours and remembered everyones orders constantly. They had drink menus everywhere so no one had to search and I saw a huge variety of requests- and everyone said theirs was great. I was impressed with a beer focused restaurant having such a fun and varied cocktail offering. If I had a friend who loved beer in the area, this would immediately be on my list to go for a fun night out.

If you come here only beer worth getting is the Lauren's amber lager Everything else is pretty good..

I've been a loyal customer to Victory for about 25 years. Would have been longer but it took me a few years to find this place. Love the beer and wings, but they took away the Veggie burger option on Thursday Burger option. They had an upcharge for it which was fine, but now they don't even offer it. My wife's a vegetarian who now prefers other establishments over Victory. Help! please put a Veggie Burger option back on the menu so I can enjoy my beer and wings!

Good food and great beer. Server was pleasant. We go to Downingtown or Parkersburg at least once a month and Victory never disappoints!

BF and I wound up at Victory for dinner on a recent Saturday around 530-6ish after we tried to go to another nearby establishment and found they had a 90+ min wait. Victory was able to seat us immediately in appropriately distanced outdoor seating. They have a number of picnic tables under a tent, and then several smaller tables that are not covered (though weren't particularly sunny that day). They have music piped in, but the waitstaff are clearly serving as DJs and had a tendency to keep changing the song 30 seconds in, which isn't a big deal but was a little weird. All staff were masked and service was friendly and prompt. The beers were solid. My favorite was the Twisted Monkey, but also tried the Tart Monkey. We like Golden Monkey and Sour Monkey as well, but were not in the mood for such at high ABV. They have a lot of options to purchase beer to take home available as well. Based on Yelp, we ordered the Fried Pickles to start and were not disappointed. They achieve a perfect, crispy breading overtop pickle chips served with a fennel aioli. The basket is huge! Luckily, we ordered it prior to ordering our entrees, because we actually wound up splitting the Turkey and Avocado sandwich instead of each ordering our meal --- and we were stuffed! The sandwich was kind of like a BLT with added turkey and avocado and was pretty tasty. The house-made chips were a good choice as well.

Excellent bar staff, great beers, and a wonderful atmosphere. So many beers to choose from, with no bad choices
