Dock Street Brewing Company is an award-winning, Philadelphia based brewery and brewpub. Independently founded in 1985, Dock Street was Philadelphia’s First Craft Brewing Company, and one of the first Craft Breweries in the country, making us a true pioneer of American-made craft beer.
We are independently owned, family-run, and woman-owned. To this day, countless craft beer drinkers credit Dock Street as the beer that turned them onto small batch, artisanal beer. We’re known as much for our Award-Winning staples like our Dock Street Bohemian Pilsner or Dock Street Man Full of Trouble Porter as we are for our more experimental styles like Dock Street Barracuda, a deliciously tart ale brewed with raspberry and hibiscus. Our name, Dock Street, was chosen in honor of the historical Philadelphia seaport district which was, in the late 1700’s, the largest producer of beer in the then-newly-formed country and home to pirates and statesmen alike who sat elbow to elbow enjoying a pint.
Visit either Dock Street Brewery location for a fun, laid-back hang with friends and family and our amazing bartenders! In addition to phenomenal, award-winning beers, you’ll also find craft cocktails with house-made syrups and Pennsylvania spirits (including our very own Vicio Mezcal) at both locations!
We’re known to throw a mean party, featuring any and everything from comedy, prose reading, cheese-making, glass-blowing, mezcal tasting and live tattooing.
Check back often for updates like new additions to the menu for game days, parties and holidays, as well as party + event listing.
