Front Street Brewery Review

Regarded as one of the top breweries in Wilmington, Front Street Brewery boasts not only a variety of delicious home-brewed beers, but also an exceptional food menu. With dishes that appeal to all tastes and flavors, it is replete with a warm, friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices.

Beer and Drinks

The brewery is acclaimed for its diversity in beer selections, with special mention of their Scottish Ale and the Riptide Raspberry Wheat. For only $7, you can get a flight and sample five of their home-brewed creations. For non-beer drinkers, the bartender is noted for being very amenable to switching out a dull WNBA game to your preferred baseball game.

Worthwhile Additions

While tasting their beers, consider going a step further and purchase a signature pint glass as a memoir of your experience. Moreover, make sure to take advantage of their free brewery tour where you’ll meet the friendly brewers and enjoy beer samples.

Food Menu

The dishes at Front Street Brewery have been described as ‘amazing’ and ‘the best’. Special mentions include the pulled chicken nachos, the shrimp & grits dish, the Southport burger with shrimp, and the grilled chicken which, according to a patron, is the best she has ever tasted. Their BBQ chicken and ribs also come highly recommended, the latter which is said to ‘melt off the bone’.

Notable Highlights

Look forward to a variety of unexpected food combinations such as the jalapeno hummus and the fried pickles, with some stating they are the best they’ve eaten. Also recognized are their vegetarian offerings, where the dishes are described as containing hearty vegetables.

Ambiance and Service

The restaurant is known for its friendly staff and fast service. Despite being potentially loud over the weekend, Front Street Brewery is constantly applauded for the relaxing and fun atmosphere it creates, earning its spot as a favorite lunch and dinner spot in Wilmington.
