Craft Breweries near Kennebunk

“We love! dog friendly Batson River Brewing! They also have an outposts in Portland and Wells but this spot was perfect after a beach day in Kennebunk! Staff was great! Family friendly and doggo friendly with food and craft cocktails for everyone. We will be back!“

“Good service and good food. I've been here a few times and it's certainly a little different every time. We went on Monday so they had trivia starting at 6. Because of this it was a little rowdy, but a nice time overall.Parking: There are parking spaces right in front of the resteraunt, but it is also in a shopping center so you can always park near the grocery store and walk over if you really needed to.“

“well we kept walking around looking for the door, a ha, it is upstairs.....lovely view and outside seating area, inside fine, lots of windows and views, service pleasant, food very good, a Reuben and a salad, the place was getting really busy by the time we were leaving....good food!!!“

“Been coming a few times a year for about, what, 5 years now. This is always the first and most boozy stop for us in Maine. If you like bourbon, high ABV beers, actual flavor, and some dank vibes, this place is for you. The flights help to taper the high ABV so I can try things without loosing it too quickly. Best beer in Maine, and I’ve been to 16 breweries in Vacationland.“

“I am not gluten free and choose to have Lucky Pigeon over nonGF beer. A wide selection of types, gluten free, and doesn't compromise on taste - unheard of. I search out Lucky Pigeon at liquor stores to avoid the bloated "after drinking" feeling. If you like IPAs try the Rock Dove, it's one of my all time favorite IPAs. Brewery itself is a revitalized textile mill. Very cool atmosphere with cozy vibes and friendly staff.“

“Okay, let’s cut to the chase: the beer here is so good, it almost feels like they’re showing off. But, as much as I love a good ipa praise session, let’s skip the beer accolades—everyone knows it’s like a high-five in a glass.Tonight, my kitchen culinary skills were not going to please anyone, which nudged my brain towards a genius thought: why not swing by Banded for some takeout? The idea hit me out of nowhere, probably inspired by their Instagram feed that’s basically foodie bait.I zoomed over and ordered their famous “Banded Burger” with double patties—because if you’re going to burger, burger hard—and added bacon, because, well, it’s bacon. The Better Half went for the fried chicken sandwich, just to mix things up. I snagged an IPA to tide me over during the wait and settled in. Service was fast, and just as I was about to solve the mystery of the bottom of my beer glass, the food arrived.Hoisting the bag felt like lifting a small child—weighty with promise. Back at home, we unveiled a burger so perfect, it could’ve had its own photoshoot. Seriously, it was all burgers strive to be: tall, stacked, and perfectly cooked. Best burger in Biddo, hands down. Don’t walk, run. The chicken sandwich was no slouch either—if you like a bit of spice, the Szechuan sauce is your new best friend. Seriously, stop what you’re doing and go there. This place nails the trifecta: fabulous food, fantastic beer, and zero reasons to eat anywhere else!“

“Beer was solid, highly recommend the Mexican Lager. The fries are excellent. I got the BH Burger it was delicious. My wife got a bacon cheeseburger, and it was overcooked, more like beef Jerry. The chairs are for from comfortable, you are not able to sit back in them without sliding down. All in all I do recommend to give this place a try.“

“My husband has been wanting to check this place out forever and it was so worth the wait and drive from NH. We loved the outdoor seating, the beer was really great, and their smash burgers were really unbelievable. Our server was very sweet. We would return!“

“It is our go-to local restaurant. A varied menu with some particular outstanding items...best fish & chips, poutine. When our vegetarian friends and family visit we always visit. Great assortment of their own beers. The large outdoor deck overlooking the Saco River is wonderful. Staff and management are the best!“

“This place is pretty hidden in the dark - the driveway is pretty long but they have great parking. Rumor has it they have a disk golf course. Dog friendly and child friendly. Beer selection is pretty wide. They do have a $3 cover charge. They seem to have love music pretty often - the band the fossils were playing when I was there. Very warm even in the winter, which was pleasantly surprising.“

“Blaze Brewing has a very lowkey ambiance. Somebody referred to this place as a "microbrewery" and I would have to agree. They have a multiple beer categories but limited options within those. Outdoor seating was not open when we went (early spring/way too cold), but the inside was nice enough. There are long tables along the windows and a couple other tables here and there. Service was fine, just the normal walk up, order, and pay. I did not like the pizza (rip my $20), the crust in the middle was just way too thin and it became mush with the toppings. However, Blaze has other good enough options to return.“

“I recently visited Batson River restaurant for the first time, and it was an absolute delight. Arriving a few minutes after opening on a Saturday, we were promptly seated amidst the festive and incredibly fun Christmas decor, setting the perfect mood for the season. The decorations alone made the visit worthwhile.The food matched the festive atmosphere. I had the mussels and smoked haddock chowder, both had a rich and flavorful taste. The "Zero Proof" mocktail and non-alcoholic beer selection were a pleasant surprise, providing excellent alternatives.Our waitress, Nicole, was not only attentive but also exceptionally kind, adding to the overall positive experience. I'm looking forward to my next visit!“
