One of the worst meals I've ever had. I question what the crabcake was even made of, didn't have taste, texture or smell of real or fake crab. Balsamic on hubby's sub was overly salted. Threw away both meals. First and last time there. Columbia location.

I had the amber ale tonight with dinner from the Mexican restaurant next door. Very tasty

Kettle Works is a cute spot for local brews. The offer flights and special cocktails. I recommend the Lavender Lemonade. The also have mocktails for the non drinkers . My favorite this is that you can bring in food of other restaurants.

Good beer and some good restaurants next door.

This is one of my favorite bars in the city. They are a tap room only, but they allow you to bring your own food in to eat while you are drinking. Their beers are delicious and they also have PA spirits if you do not like beer. The staff are so nice and they often have live music on the weekends in the summer. The patio outside is perfect especially, if you have a dog. It's an amazing location and the vibe is awesome!

The beer is excellent and the bartenders are too notch. Love Travis! Friday nights they have live music that's always a treat!

Haven't been the the original CKW, so I don't know how this compares, but the drinks are on point, and the location is pretty great as well. Lots of seating inside (though a little limited at the bar), and outside there's a nice expansive patio with tables, umbrellas, and additional seats. I haven't tried any food here, as there's a decent Mexican restaurant and Zoetropolis, which has excellent food, all connected by this patio. Some nights and weekends, you can enjoy live music outside, AND the patio is dog friendly! The parking situation is pretty good too -- if you can't find a spot on the street, there are two parking garages and two paid parking lots near Lancaster Central Market, all within easy walking distance.

Great space, and the brews were on point. Good selection ... but again, the space is what makes it a really cool spot. Definitely stop if you're in town 7.5/10

The bar tender was great! The place is great for lounging around and watching sports! They have food and an outside spot to relax

Great location and selection of beer! You can also order Mexican from next door.
We sat inside, but I think one of the coolest parts about this place is their patio. It has a ton of room out there and is filled with all types of plant life. There is a great selection of board games and cards to pass the time while drinking some brews. The brewery had a nice selection of their own beer and other locally sourced beer. Bartender was super nice and personable.

I just had the triple IPA up and onward. It is very good and it 10.1% alcohol. This is my first time here. I stopped by for a beer. I will return.

I have always supported kettle works and loved the atmosphere, however, I recently had a very bad experience there. Obviously, we’re still in a pandemic so I would expect that the mask rules be followed and enforced at bars and restaurants. I understand that people don’t have to wear them at tables, but should have them on when walking around, etc. I went up to the counter to order more drinks and an older man did not have his mask on while ordering. I asked him to put his mask on(as the counter is a communal area) and he replied, “I can’t drink my beer with a mask on.” I asked the bartender to enforce the rule and he said, “oh, he’s a regular, he doesn’t have COVID.” I was clearly upset and was brushed off. I guess your regulars are more important than every other paying customer. I will not be returning.

I absolutely loved this place. Great indoor and outdoor seating options. It's nestled between a Mexican food restaurant and Zoetropolis- also a super close walk to other breweries! The server was great. We watched the Penn State game and enjoyed our flights. We will definitely be back to try more of the great list of beer available!
