Yonkers Brewing Co.

Went during Sunday brunch. Service was horrible, very slow, staff was very unprofessional (arguing with customers). Food was ok, 12 beers on tap, took a small growler home. Atmosphere promising, but under delivered.

The place has great potential. Great beer selection and good service. Unfortunately the live music on Thursday’s is way too loud to hold a decent conversation. We will not come back.

I never thought I’d travel all the way to Yonkers for a brewery, but I’m glad I did! Came here on a Saturday night because I had a groupon for two flights and an appetizer. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the overall experience and vibe of this place. The place looks rather small on the outside, but you actually walk into a large spacious area with tons of seating. We sat in the back and liked their selections of games so immediately started to play one. While we were playing we ordered our beers and appetizers. I liked how they already had pre-​set flights on their menu. Sometimes I’ll see one beer I want to try and it’s hard to decide on other ones for my flight.
Between 3 of us ordering flights, I tried almost all of their beers and thought they were all great. The one that stood out the most was the Sorachi Ace. It had a really unique flavor and went down really smooth. It’s a must try if you go! For food we had the crunchy country chicken, which were really good! The corn flakes were a nice touch. We also had the rockaway sandwich which was tasty as well.
The service was great and our server even gave my friend a mini tour after we missed the tour window. This is a great spot and I’d definitely come back.

Great beers great food, have to support local breweries! We’ve been here a half dozen times and love it!

Very cool environment. Two of the owners/​managers stopped over to see how we were doing. We had the breakfast burrito and the spinach egg wrap. Both were delicious (they’re cut in half so we shared one and one). The chips on the side are home made and tasty. The home fries came out cold, so not sure what they would have tasted like if warm. They saved me the calories so I could order desert. They we’re out of the brownie a la mode (sad face) so we had churros with ice cream. They were good. Missed my chocolate fix. The two beer flights were good. Next time I want to try the Bloody Mary with the shrimp (forgot what they called it). Great place to come for brunch. Good jammin music (probably a little loud for the 70+ crowd). Can’t wait to come back again.

I like the fact that is a local and growing brewery.
I did not care for the food, ordered the fish tacos and the flatbread, neither one of them good at all.

Went here with a groupon that was a good deal for an appetizer and 2 beer flights. Nice atmosphere. I wouldnt come here hungry thr food wasn’t that good but the beer was unique.

We visited here because we had ordered a groupon for a tour, 4 flights, and 2 appetizers. Service was very slow to start… Took a while to get our waiter to give us some real attention and he didn’t know how to handle the groupon. Shortly after, one if the owners came out and she was lovely. She recommended the crunchy country chicken and the Brussels sprouts– both of which were delicious! The cinnabomb waffle (decorated like a bunny!) was good, but I hated the sauce. My friends all enjoyed their food — meat omelette, sausage & egg sandwich, chips & guac.
We were a little disappointed that we couldn’t choose our own flights because they are preselected for you, but we were really pleased with the ones we tried! The Honey Blonde and Smoked Marzen were my favorites.
The brewery tour was small and short, but the fill-​in tour guide was great (the regular tour guide was sick that day). The building is an old trolley barn and the overall atmosphere is great! Retro music and a box of board games make this place a very cool hangout.

Brunch was seriously disappointing. The menu sounds delicious unfortunately doesn’t taste that way. Service awful. Waited 15 minutes for waters and coffees. Food came out one by one. Waiting approx 25 minutes from the first plate until the last one which were for 2 children. Wings no good. 2 of the same sandwiches came out totally different. Corn beef hash… awful. fish tacos decent. Waste of $ and my Sunday brunch. Came home looking to eat.

Stopped here on a day off visiting a friend in the area and we had fun catching up and sharing flights of beer. Their flight prices were okay — but I didn’t love that they forced you to pick one of three flights, rather than let you pick what you wanted. Food was okay, the company was better. Tip o’ the hat to their Crown Brown, Vanilla Stout and Golden Lager Dortmunder Style.

Found a groupon for this place and decided to give it a try. Sat at the bar and was served promptly. Bartender even gave us a tour of the brewery. The selection of beer isnt huge but i didnt mind since im not a big beer drinker. Overall, food and beer was good. Even bought a 6 pack of their yonkers ipa. Will definitely be stopping by again.

Get down here next chance you get and swill some of Brewmaster Sharif’s magical potations. They have an awesome and rotating variety of beer. I usually find myself drawn to the flagship Vienna Lager or the Golden Lager.
Everything I’ve had from the food menu is delicious. My go to, though, are Dawn’s Fish Tacos.

Found this place thru a groupon that included 4 flasks of beer tasting for 2 plus an appetizer for $ 35. We ordered an extra appetizer plus another beer each and I’m already tipsyyyyy. Nice place in Yonkers. Played country music all night. Nice environment and friendly service. My fav beer was the Shower Beer. Would recommend for date night or group of friends!

Place looks great for the beer enthusiast. Friendly staff. Yummy salad. Big and open space. Would visit again.

SHRIMP TACOs! Peaches & Cran Salad! And Churros for the kiddies! OMG! This place is «off the chain» as our son calls it (lol). My husband loves the craft beer and this is literally across the street from our apartment! Wish we moved closer to this place in the summer, we would live here! (lol) This is an unexpected find in Yonkers, NY, but we are so happy it is here and bringing in the right kind of nightlife too. LOVE YONKERS BREWING CO!
And by the way, I have not had a chance to try their breakfast menu, but thats also looks delicious!

Interesting place, the Yonkers Brewery; we came for an advertised Brewery tour, and checked-​in with the bartender for it on arrival, but it never took place. Despite friendly servers, and no less than four people visible in the kitchen for a brunch menu which offered little more than eggs, food service was slow. They were set-​up for beer flights, and both of ours came out promptly, nicely labelled and with the tasting glasses properly filled, even if the flavors didn’t always match the labels and sometimes seemed to be trying more for hippness than classic beer fulfillment. Unfortunately, when the food did arrive (on paper-​type plates that they may brag are «green,» but which are also flimsy and unstable), the better part of an hour after being ordered, the California Love Sandwich, advertised as featuring «two scrambled eggs, guacamole, red onion… «didn’t include enough egg to cover the bread, was missing the second ingredient altogether and had a total of two bits of red onion, while the Corned Beef Hash featured more of a fine purée of corned beef than the advertised slices. My husband’s potatoes were somewhat warm, but by the time they reached me mine were cold. The entrance and facilities are accessible. The server was friendly (and took off for the missing avocado), but we don’t plan to be back to eat and gave up on the tour.

Big fan of my home city and this brewery makes me even more proud to be from here.
Love this place — awesome atmosphere (sitting outside in the summer is absolutely perfect!), super friendly bar & waiting service, and most importantly. really great beers. They let you sample the beer before you order if you’d like but I’d also reco their flight options.
I’d love to give YBC a 5 star rating but their food for me is really sub par. I’ve tried their wings and the brats and while the servings are small, the taste is mediocre at best. Obviously still coming back here because everything else is pretty wonderful… and I’m #basic and waiting for their pumpkin beer to finish brewing.

My buddy Jim turned me onto this place. While chatting at beer club a couple of times, he kept mentioning it and said we should bring the group up to Yonkers. «Up to Yonkers?!» I thought, «is that a place people would want to go?»
Well, after two successful trips there, I can say that yes, people do want to go to Yonkers and with good reason, as long as they are going to Yonkers Brewing.
You will likely run into one of the owners or a relative while you are there and they can tell you about the brewery came to be. The building is an old trolley shed just two minutes from the Metro North stop.
They usually have about a dozen beers on tap and between the time I was there in March until I was there in July, I swear they have improved significantly. I got a flight recently and there wasn’t a beer on it I didn’t enjoy.
Service is also great. Friendly and hard-​working, you will immediately feel welcome here. I ate some shrimp tacos and patatas bravas when I was there recently and both were very good. They use sustainable disposable plates and utensils and I admire their commitment to the environment.
City folks, listen to me. You can go from Grand Central to Yonkers on the train in a half hour. It takes longer to get some places in Brooklyn from midtown! Do yourself a personal favor and go to Yonkers Brewing, have some great brews, some good food and meet the friendly folks there. Tell them Bill from beer club sent you.

Delicious house beers and great appetizers you can’t go wrong with the Glacier Pale Ale and The Crunchy country chicken! The other 2 beers I had were also great (HefeWeizen and their strongest beer the Big red Dubbel) Definitely worth the trip to make if you are visiting Yonkers. Our bartender Sean was great, very nice, very helpful and educated on which beers to try.

What a really nice place! Everyone that worked here was super nice and sociable. The bartender was great. The food and of course the beer was all very good. It makes me really happy to have a place like this so close to home.
We both started with the Witbier. It was very good, nice and clean. I really love a good wheat beer and they totally delivered. I tried the Irish Red next which was also pretty good. My favorite of the night though was the malty Dortmunder. It was so tasty. My fiancée didn’t really go for that one too much, she tried a flight not being a huge beer fan, but wanting to try. She really liked the Belgian Dubbel, which to me had a bit of a wine taste to it.
The food was very tasty. We were recommended the garlic Parmesan wings to start. The wings were a good size and tasted great. The sauce was a bit greasy and very garlicky. Not a bad thing, just watch out a bit.
I got the fish tacos. Wow, they were great. Two nice size tacos with delicious fish, avocado, red cabbage and a tasty sauce. For some reason I’ve been craving something like this for a while and they totally hit the spot. She got the Reuben which of course I tried and the corned beef was absolutely delicious.
The place looks great. Nice long bar and tables. It’s a good size place. Hoping the best for them, as we needed a good spot like this.
