Dreadnought Brewing

My husband and i were curious about this place so we decided to check it out. The man working behind the bar came over and greeted us and talked with us about the variety of beer available. We tried a sampler of 6 of their brews– very tasty. Also available was a small menu of food items you can order. We tried the pork street tacos which were awesome, especially liked the house made chipotle sauce that came with them. This place is sure to be successful, good beer, good food and friendly staff– what more could you ask for.

Excellent beer, fresh tasty food, and a fun crowd! Monroe really has come a long ways in the last couple years! This is one of my favorite places to fill up a growler.

–I had a Pale Ale, which was very tasty and I really wanted to get a growler to go of brew, but it didn’t happen. I tried the Red Ale, which wasn’t as good. My wife had the Jam IPA, think jamming out to playing the guitar. We concluded the Pale Ale was the best of the beers we tried.
–The customer service was fast and friendly from the guy working the bar.
–I liked the beer and will go back when I am next in Monroe.

So, the atmosphere was pretty cool was the only one in there so services was good nice vibe when I walked in tried most of the beers they had 7 or 8 I don’t remember lol most were good the only one that really stood out that i make sure to try is the Redemption IPA that was very good. The others were good too for the most part but the Redemption IPA was my top pick. If I’m in the area I’ll go back for sure

Dreadnought was our first beer stop during our Tulip and beer drinking weekend.
The beer here is pretty solid. It wasn’t my favorite on later beer stops to come but it was ok. Here I got an IPA which wasn’t a bad start to the weekend.
What I liked more than the beer were the sandwiches! I got the Italian Turkey Panini which made a fantastic little supper! They also have a regular Turkey Panini as well which is what Steve got. It was good too but the Italian version was definitely better.
There was a singer who I believe was local while we dined. He did covers, mostly which I didn’t care for but he did sing a Tom Petty song which was decent. How can one not like Tom Petty?

Stopped in for a beer and a bite today what a great surprise!!! Awesome service, great blonde ale and amazing street tacos!!! We will be back!!!

This place never disappoints! I have now been here a handful of times and the food changes but had never been anything but fresh, creative and most importantly DELICIOUS! They brew their own beer on site and it’s has something to please everyone. I roll with some beer snobs and they absolutely love the taste and selections brewed at Dreadnaught. There is always music playing and the owners are alway working and chatting up customers. Very relaxing and great place in Monroe for beer and food. It’s in the business park but it’s a little oasis of character and taste that makes it worth the trip.

I’ve known the owner Steve for a while, so maybe my review is a little biased… But this is a great place. I’ve been there a few times and it’s always laid back and interesting. They take the time to talk about their craft and beer in general. A great opportunity to learn a little more, sample each of their beers, and just hang out. The bar and seating area is comfortable and also allows an easy view into the back room where the brewing equipment is actively at work. Their IPA is excellent and I really enjoyed the CPA last time I was there. But even if a particular beer isn’t your favorite, it’s always interesting to chat about the differences in how the beer is made with these guys and learn a little more about the process. Highly recommend.

this place has pretty good beer and pretty good food. great looking bar and theyre doing a good job for just starting out. if they change up their beers a little and get their name out there more theyre gonna make it. its a mix of beer, light menu, and guitars is the best way I can describe it. great stop on a sunday afternoon, you wont be disappointed.

So many new breweries. Seriously… who knows where they all are? These guys popped up last year, with this mixed mission of live music, light kitchen, and new brewhouse run by guys with no pro brewing experience. You could certainly be forgiven for having no idea what to expect with all of that going on. Turns out they’re hitting it out of the park.
There are a lot of new offices and warehouse spaces sprouting up on the edges of the Monroe business district, particularly on this side. People are out walking along the little pond in the mornings, and it seems like they swing around later for beers and foods. We showed up right when they opened. Actually, given that they’re on their winter hours, it was right before they opened, but they were happy to welcome customers even while they straightened up the place for the day’s work.
There’s a good-​sized bar and there are plenty of tables in the taproom, which doubles as a live music space in the evenings. You’re clearly in a brewery, with tap handles on the left and shiny stainless tanks straight ahead. But they’re not messing around with the live music, either. To your right are wedge monitors, and behind the bar, behind curtains, are Vox monitors and other cool vintage guitar equipment. Not to mention all the guitars of various vintages displayed on the wall.
If you look closer around the taproom, you see that all the photos are shots of musicians playing live around the Seattle area. I got the distinct impression that somebody who works at the brewery took all the shots, but I didn’t confirm that. The kitchen faces right out onto the taproom, and if you get there first thing, you’re pretty much chatting with everybody, from chef to bartender to brew crew, who are all stoked about what they’re doing and happy to welcome you.
The menu is straightforward, focused on sandwiches. Mostly paninis. There are one or two other things, but this is stuff they can do well out of a small space with minimal waste; it’s a very well-​designed menu for a new business.
The beer list is solid, with one of the better blonds I’ve had in a long time, and a super-​solid APA, very dry, lots of crystal clear hoppy bitterness. When we were in, our bartender was one of the assistant brewers, who also sings, plays guitar, and writes songs. The TVs were playing live concert footage with full sound, and there was a turntable behind the bar, with a decent stash of vinyl stacking up.
They’re getting to the point where they’ve gotten good feedback consistently everywhere they have taken kegs, and are ready to step up and find a path to getting kegs out to more places. Looking forward to trying their beers without having to drive quite so far, but, still, I’ll happily hit up this place again for pints.

Finally a brewery that is actually open regular hours and has GOOD beer in Monroe! The food is also great and they are very family friendly. They regularly have live music as well. We have been driving to Duvall to get a decent pint for the last two years, and we are so stoked that Monroe finally has its own great place!

Great people and welcoming to our family (two toddlers). Great beer on tap and even a cider for my wife! We will be back post skiing!

Really enjoyed their starting beer lineup. Everything solid on their first day open. Looking forward to going back for food!

We really enjoyed coming here. Their beer was good, the waitstaff friendly, and bonus: kids are allowed! They have a gaming area for them, which will be great for when ours are older. The food is good as well; pretty basic sandwiches, etc.
