12 Best Craft Breweries near Ephrata

“DIY ordering & seating. Had a dozen brew options, good food & a self-service water station. Recommend the braided pretzel for app (soft & chewy) and the Italian Grinder (luv its toasted Amoroso roll). Pizzas were also popular at many tables. Clientele included family diners till abt 7 pm.“

“Went here for the first time after having their beer numerous times… Awesome place. Relaxing, inviting, and it’s nice being able to bring a little one in the back area. Also, as the husband of a very pregnant wife it’s nice that they have Athletic Brewing n/a beer so she can have some of that. Also, probably some of the best hoagies I’ve ever had.“

“This place is a hidden gem. It is small inside but the food and drinks were wonderful. They are safe for those with celiac - my husband was able to have fried chicken bites, wings, and tater tots. They have a separate fryer and were super aware of protocols for celiac safety. Parking can be a little tricky but it was a fun place to go on a Saturday for lunch.Dietary restrictions: Safe for those with celiac disease. They have a separate fryer so no cross contamination on fried items. The menu is marked with GF options and staff was aware and helpful.“

“I discovered this place through Wild Wings and Things recently as they were advertising an All you can eat Wings and Pizza special on Thursdays. So, I asked my friend who I meet up with to try the place. Little did I know, the place has 2 restaurants in it along with a bar. I decided to do the AYCE special while my friend got a Poke Bowl from Tsunami the sushi place there. The place was the same as Wild Wings as it's one of the restaurants in there. Servers were pretty nice and the guy at the bar was cool enough to throw the Flyers game onto a TV we were facing. The place is really nice, has a lot of seating and the friendly staff made it worth it. I am going to try to get here again to do the AYCE special. The only complaint I really had was the wings were really small though they were crispy, I'm not sure who the supplier is, but maybe improve the wings a little. Other than that, I recommend this place.“

“Great place, excellent service, and super friendly staff. Beer is exceptional. Food is awesome! Best burgers around. Overall great experience and we plan to continue to come!They have lots of fun activities, including trivia, and other things. Keep up the good work!-The people in the back with the loud kids“

“A truly fun night out! This is a small bar with around a dozen flavors of mead, along with some locally brewed beer options. You can get a flight of mead to try a few different ones, and then get a lane to throw axes. The instructor went over the basics in maybe 2 minutes and gave us tips when we weren't sticking the axes immediately, so very quickly we were nailing the target and having a great time. It's a very different kind of time to have, and it's a lot of fun- totally worth your time.I will mention as a small caveat - this is a bar, but their food and drink menu is very limited. For food they had a handful of snacks and for drinks it really was just the mead and beers. My advice would be to eat before going. Also, if you have that one friend that doesn't like trying new things - leave them home.“

“Best kept secret brewery in Lancaster county. I think what I like the most about this brewery is that the owner/brewer makes everything to the best of his ability. The selection is unreal! You also can't beat the down to earth staff. You instantly feel like family.“

“Excellent Food with vegetarian and vegan choices. Nicely designed drink menu from an array of draft beer (not all IPAs) to specialty mixed and non-alcoholic drinks. The decor fits the 'Coffin Bar' theme; dark, gothic, and edgy.Vegetarian options: There is a heavy use of mushroom and mushroom broth to impart texture and flavor. Flavors are deep and rich and well worth spending the time to savor.“

“Such a unique and cute shop! We were at the fire and ice festival and stopped by here and glad we did. We got a kombucha flight - four different flavors for $5, and they were generous portions.Although the flavors were more subtle / not too strong in flavor, it was very good and I would definitely recommend checking this cute shop out.“

“Collusion brewery is located right in the heart of Lititz. Plenty of table tops, bar stools, and TV's to watch your team. Go up to the bar for drink and food orders, they use a buzzer system for food pickup at the bar. If your in town shopping or just need a timeout during your day, this is a great spot for it.“

“Little Mutants’ MUTATOR is diving into the root of club culture – people coming together and uniquely expressing their version of being free from the dance of everyday life.It’s a space to feel safe, to release, and to embrace community…diverse music and carefully crafted beverages all in an intentionally curated environment.Their resident DJ, Sky Society, transcends the crowd with his artistry… no one can sit, he’s a hypnotist – everyone can’t help but join the dance floor.MUTATOR is the elevation that Lancaster’s going-out scene needed; what a gem!“

“If you are a whiskey drinker, Thistle Finch is a must. First, the building has that olden day charm, so you know the atmosphere is going to be right! Take the tour and you will learn some very interesting things. The food is great, the bar tender was awesome and the drinks, you will want more!“
