The Hubs and I were very impressed with this recent addition to the York craft beer scene. We were amazed by the number of Collusion beers available as well as the quality of those beers. We both like hoppy IPAs and so we really enjoyed the Animorphus IPA. The beer tenders were friendly and knowledgeable. There are plenty seats at the bar and at several tables located in the tap room. The place was hopping and so parking was a bit hairy, but that's city life I suppose. No food was available, but you can bring food in from other establishments. We will be back soon! read more

Visited here from out of town. Beer and food were great! I highly recommend this brewery for a quick drink and food read more

Good beer, food and service. Extensive variety of beer and menu too. Atmosphere was cool also.

The brewer here at Collusion is doing fantastic work. We lived the emphasis on the Gose and sour styles. The hoppy unfiltered ales we tried were tasty as well. We shared a quesadilla that was freshly made, it was good. Ill return when I'm in the area. read more

Really really want to go 5 here but the bottom of our panini was unforgivably black. But - food is incredibly good. Try the vegetarian flatbread - roasted veggies humus and cheese on a house made flat bread. Very shareable as it is filling. Panini - we had the Italian. Not sure where they get their cold cuts but delicious. We also had the Brussels sprout salad. In a word yum. Has the arugula bite and creamy Parmesan. Beers are high in ABV but they offer small glasses. My fave - Hyperion. read more

Collusion Tap Works - Bar view - Breweries Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Hit this spot with a friend while passing through York and loved it. Bartender was helpful and friendly. They must have 15-20 different brews on tap which is one of the largest selections of beers that I've seen a brewery. And the beers were very creative and unique. They also do food onsite and both items that we tried were excellent. Totally my kinda joint. Keep up the good work! read more

Amazing beer selection that's always changing with staple beers on tap consistently. They are always adding new and creative beer that will never leave your beer palate disappointed. So beer wise this place gets a emphatic 5 Stars! If you're going for the food, make sure you're not starving and you allot plenty of time for it to be prepped. The food is amazing but it takes FOREVER to be prepared, hence the 3 Stars. Example: Go in as a couple for your 1 hour lunch break on Friday. You're the first ones to order. It takes 30-40 minutes before it's ready leaving you as little as 10-15 minutes to eat to give you enough time to get back to work. I can't even imagine how long the wait for food is when it's busy. I've heard other less than stellar experiences about the wait from coworkers. If Collusion could step up their food prep time to match their amazing beer selection this place would be the perfect spot! read more

Food was yummy, beer was good and server seemed to know her beer very well. Place was very spacious and a fun place to hang out. They have games and darts you can borrow to play, and lots of beautiful art in the surrounding neighborhood to take a walk on a nice day. read more

This place was packed when a York Revolution game got rained out, found a few people with Revs jerseys seeking refuge and drinks and I quickly learned why. The selection of brews is so good I had trouble picking out the ones for my flights. I got a chicken pesto sandwich, it was pretty good but wasn't filling enough for dinner, had to get the crab dip and pretzel which was great but they didn't give us much dip. I didn't have a drink in my flights that I did not like, I especially like the fruity ones. You seat yourself, order at the bar and they give you a buzzer that goes off when the food is ready (the bartender does make the drinks after you pay of course). This place was so popular that even in the rain people were sitting outside under the awning that ended up getting my lap wet but I didn't care, I was having a good time. I wouldn't come here to eat if I wasn't a drinker, but an app to share, one of their sandwiches and some nice York brews really hits the spot. read more

I have not visited York Pennsylvania in like 15 years. During my trip home to see family for the holidays, we took the little ones to York to see the lights. We all wanted a beer and some good food. We found Collusion by chance, and we were never happier we did. Incredible service, delicious beer, and really good food. Give them a try!! read more

First time here, will be back. Beer list was exceptional, very well priced and best of all-- GOOD BEER. Food was good as well. Only deducting one star because they were out of half the menu. Supposedly a long wait but I was pleasantly surprised to get our order very quickly. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Update- always a hit, there's at least one or two beers on the menu to hit all tastes. read more

If you know and love beer, Collusion is the place to go. Yeah...we have local breweries in York, but I am so bored with amateur hour. Apparently a lot of people enjoy a tall glass status quo. Myself, I enjoy the real deal. If your favorite brewery isn't pushing boundaries, and or taking it to the next level what is the point? 24 rotating taps of flavor city WARNING: If you cannot handle a variety of awesome brews do not go here. If you are afraid to taste fresh, delicious beer......avoid at all costs. If you think coors light is the best beer ever, your head might explode. read more

Friendly, prompt and attentive service. Nice atmosphere. A fun place to go. I am a fan of hoppy IPAs and most of these were a bit mild to my taste, but that is a personal preference. read more

24 taps of creative beer (and usually a cider), with brand new beers every week. Special limited bottle releases too! Well worth the trip for anyone out of town who is looking for new breweries to visit. I'm grateful that such an awesome brewery graces my home town! The staff are friendly, attentive, and speedy. Even the patrons are generally more friendly than at other local bars. The kitchen is now up and running and on it's way to making this place a great spot to spend your evening. I immediately became a regular when they opened and still visit periodically since then, and it just keeps getting better! read more

Collusion Tap Works - Tacos! - Breweries Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

We were in the area visiting relatives and decided to visit a brewery to kill time before dinner. Not being familiar with the area, we had a hard time finding it due to the many one way streets downtown. But when our GPS finally got us there, we were happy to see there was plenty of parking. The inside was packed but we managed to snag some seats at the bar when a couple got up. The four of us ordered various sample size (5 oz) beers that were $2 to $3 each. The beer menu had something for everyone, from various IPA's and Double IPA's to sours and porters. We had a wide range of beers that day, and everyone was satisfied. My personal favorite was Homunculus (Double IPA 8%) which we wound up getting our growler filled with to take home. The only downfall was that we ordered two crab boat appetizers and one came out in normal fashion, while the other didn't arrive until well after we finished the first one. We later found out they had run out of pretzels and had to go get some more from the store. Not a big deal, but it would have been nice to know earlier and we could have ordered something else instead due to the long wait. All in all, when we're back in the area again, we'll certainly pay Collusion Tap Works another visit! read more

Collusion Tap Works - The menu - Breweries Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Such a GRATE place. Best place in York. best wings in York wooooh. Make sure you bring your honey here. They will l o v e it !!!

Collusion is the best tap room in town! With all original craft brews and some delicious meals, I never leave here unsatisfied with my choices! read more

I am a regular and have been around during a time when the kitchen was not what it is today. This is not a compliment. I remember when the food was outstanding!!!! I have tried everything on the menu, I will go as far as to say their nachos were perhaps the best I ever had or pretty damn close to it. For starters, unlike today, it was not just chips. The tots were the best, and severed in a basket that command attention. The wings, while small, were perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of seasoning. The options were limited but they got it right. So what changed? Was it the staff, high turn over, was it the tariffs that prevented the perfect combination of spices? I guess I will never know. All I know is that if you have no idea what a plate of disappointment taste like, order the wings or nachos. Please bring back the original menu. Total disappointment!!! read more

We love Collusion! Such a gem in York City! Their beer is amazing, and there is always something fun and new to try! The bartenders are friendly and welcoming, and they never let your glass run out! If you love craft beer, Collusion is the place in town to go. read more

Great place to hang out and relax with friends. Love the beer variety! Blink is amazing.

I love the beer here, huge variety of styles, and some really creative experimental stuff too. The vibe is great as well, everyone is friendly. Food isn't always available, but the few times I've eaten there it's been really good. I recommend trying some of the weirder stuff and the Animorphus IPA. Parking in the lot can be tough on busy nights, which is to be expected as it's in the city, but there is a lot of surrounding street parking. read more

Been here twice now. Love the number of beers on tap and have liked every one I have tried. Great food choices including healthy options. Great atmosphere. Outside seating area available but is just picnic tables along the wall of the building roped off from the parking area. Good beer! Good food! read more

Entering Collusion Tap Works reminded us of being at craft brewery in Denver, CO. Very nice atmosphere, nice size bar, nice table seating area. The place was packed on a Friday night so the noise level was pretty high. Went back Saturday afternoon and it was much more relaxed. The selection of beers is extensive, very extensive. Wine is available and cider is in the works. The only thing lacking is food. There was a wood fired pizza vendor, Artisan Pizza, there that served outstanding brick oven pizza. In addition to growlers 32oz. cans are available. They fill the can with your favorite beer and then cap the can right there. Same shelf life as a normal can of beer. Private parking available. Prices are what you would expect at a craft brew. read more

My Wife and I love this place. Food is surprisingly good for a brewery(taco Mondays are our favorite). The staff is nice and always accommodating, even when it is packed out. The beer is some of the best out there, and I lived in Colorado during the beginning of their beer renaissance, and this place has most of them beat. If you want different, or beer that tastes like beer, they've got you easily covered. If you are coming through York on business or just passing through your should absolutely give this place a shot. read more

Incredible beer. I can't believe how great their beers are, considering that they have 24(!) On tap. Great beer, great service, no witnessed racism. read more

Really cool brewery and great selection of beers. The several I had were very good. Cool building and decor inside. Good to see York getting more places like this. Would have been a 5 if they had food to serve but don't let this stop you from visiting. read more

Collusion is one of my favorite breweries in Central Pennsylvania. They are constantly experimenting with different hops, fruits and sour beers. The atmosphere is great with the antique lighting and brick. The bar tending staff is always very nice and knowledgeable! read more

Good selection of beer but only 3 available to fill my growler. It was nice and quiet, unlike many other breweries and the food was good, although a very small selection. If you want to enjoy some good local fresh beer and don't mind walking to the bar every time you want a refill, give them a shot. read more

Easily the best brewery in York, which might not sound like much, but in an up-and-coming market, Collusion gets it. Order a traditional beer with great taste or keep up with the ever-advancing NEIPAs.. either way, the beer is absolutely worth your time. Add good food, great service, and outdoor games (corn hole, etc.) to the mix, and you've discovered the perfect weekend. read more

Great beers. The list and beers are always changing. I haven't had many beers I did not like here. The bartenders and servers are always helpful and friendly. I recently joined their club. Its definitely a place to check out. read more

Pretty bummed about this place. We were super excited to try this place after looking around for places to celebrate my finances birthday. We sat at a high top waiting to grab an actually table, because we had a two year old that could obviously not sit in a high chair at a very high top table, and not one single waiter or bartender greeted us or ever once asked us if we needed anything. So naturally we went up to the bar to grab a drink and wait. An hour rolls around and still we were waiting for a table when we just decided to leave and grab Thai food next door. As someone who has spent a huge chunk of her life serving and bartending, I feel like it was an incredibly unpleasant experience that not one person greeted us in any way or even asked if we wanted to order some food/hand us a menu. Super disappointed because the beer I had was so good, but I doubt we will be back! read more

If you don't like beer stay away. If you love great IPAs and stouts and porters make the stop. Well worth the drive (except for the amazing parents letting the toddlers scamper throughout the tasting room. You know who you are) read more

I've read about this place on the internet (here on Yelp, as well as other websites) so we wanted to give it a try. Went for lunch this past Sunday, and found it to be fairly empty (probably 3-5 other couples in the place besides us). They had a nice selection of beers, particularly if you enjoy pushing boundaries of beer flavors (pumpkin ale, blackberry, cappucino, chocolate, etc....). They also had a couple of more traditional IPA's, a Kolsch, and a barley wine, along with a hard cider & a blended cider/barley wine. For me, I'm generally more traditional in my beers, so I stuck with beer flavored beers, and what I had, I enjoyed. But I know that a lot of people out there enjoy non-traditional flavors in their beers (any of a number of fruits, chocolate, etc...), so you'll have those, as well. For the food, we just had a couple of panini sandwiches, which were very good. Overall, had a cool decor to it, and we enjoyed our brief visit to Collusion. We'll definitely go back. read more

Amazing selection of in house brewed beers. Love their sours particularly the Citra River sour farmhouse ale. Had the nachos and the chicken sandwich which were both very good. read more

The beer here is second to none. The Master Brewer worked at my favorite brewery, Southern Tier and his brews are fabulous!

Collision is a nice bar but we ordered drinks and food and it took more than 15 minutes for the beer and 45 minutes for the food. The service is consistently slow and they seem to be under staffed. A new business in a growing community needs to be well prepared for their day to day operations and Collusion is not. read more

My wife and I went for the first time this past Saturday - late afternoon. Good crowd and was able to get the last spot in the new parking lot directly outside. Beer was excellent ! A very wide selection of styles and what I appreciated was that everything is made by the owner.. not a place that sells known brands. We sat at the bar and were able to have a great conversation with the owner. He had worked pubs on the East Coast and decided to open his own place. Went to German and studied and came back to York and opened up Collusion. Open about a year and continuing to fine tune beer and food. Admitted beer has always been great and food is better than first days now that he has new chef.(Short Ribs great !) Had 20 something beers on tap -- has produced over 200 since opening so looking to see what the customers like the most. We will be returning on a regular basis - with friends. read more
