CraftRoots in Milford is exactly what I love about living in the metrowest community. Not only are they pumping out tasty craft beer, they're also giving it all back to the community. CraftRoots is a 501(c)3 non-profit and each month they select a new local charity to support. How amazing is that?! AND the best part?! It really is GREAT craft beer and even greater people. The flight is the perfect way to mix and match to find your go to pint for the evening. The staff are funny, engaging, and super kind, and the owners are some of the most down to earth, kind hearted folks I've met. PS - the live music was AMAZING and they have board games you can play too! If you get hungry there's always a local food truck standing by! My recommendations? Ms. American Pie (with sugar rim!) and the Ode to The Cranberries! read more

Fun place, small brewery with decent offerings on tap. Typically I go on a weekend night (Fri or Sat) they generally have live music. There brews range from a lite lager, to NE style IPA's to a stout, something for all tastes. For food it varries, they do have snacks but the real food comes from food trucks so check the website to see who's serving it up on the day you're going, the taco truck seems to be a crowd favorite but it can vary. The setting is industrial garage, I like the look of the stainless steel vats that ferment the brews. The people who operate the place are very friendly and welcoming, the crowd can range from early 20 somethings to 60 somethings, dancing is encouraged. If you're a beer afficianado stop in for pint and make a new friend. read more

This is a great space with lots of seating and reasonably priced selection of beer. Best of all is the owners had the genius idea of installing a decibel meter facing the band with instructions not to exceed a certain volume. This insures if you go it's guaranteed you can actually talk to tbe person next to you read more

A very deceiving hole in the wall brewery in Milford. Located in an industrial park this very open space inside is warm and inviting. They typically have either a band or trivia on most nights. Bartenders were patient as we looked over the choices. The Autumn Ale was a bold and tasty pumpkin beer and then the Never Marry A Murphy was a great red ale. They have rotating food trucks and the ones we saw were top notch trucks. A nice hidden gem in milford read more

CraftRoots Brewing has some delicious beers layered with flavor. I had the Aloha Blond Ale. A very fruit forward Ale. It is very good. My wife had the Hazy, Hop & Humid IPA also fruity and delicious. Both beers were very good. The service is great, very hoppy people there lol! The interior is fitting for a brewery. They have a small outdoor seating area and did have a food truck that smelled delicious. read more

New owners have made some improvements and expanded the seating! Went on a Saturday night with live music and it was busier than I've ever seen but the staff was able to keep up and they had a great variety of styles. Also like that they had cans to go now read more

CraftRoots Brewing - Outside - Breweries Near Me - Milford, Massachusetts

Great local spot with outdoor seating, rotating food on the weekends, live band, and of course, great beer. We liked the FORCE OF NATURE NEIPA and HOLD ON A LITTLE LAGER. Good clean bathrooms - unisex, single room bathrooms. I think that they are dog-friendly as well! read more

I swung by here the other day to try out their beers and it was a cool experience. As a DIPA lover I was disappointed they didn't have any. I had a flight of two of their IPA's and two of their Porter's. The beers were pretty good, but not the kind I drink. The bartender was attentive and the flight was only $10. The vibe is ok. Small bar and tables inside. As someone who enjoys strong IPA's, I tend to stick to breweries that brew these kinds of beer. read more

I liked the beer. It was dog friendly, and there were many adorable pups and kids. The wait staff ere lovely. My only objection is that they started to pack up the restaurant while the raffle for the special event was being called and waaaay before closing time. I would have left, but i bought a raffle ticket! It was not the most welcoming way to end the afternoon. That said, I will be coming back but probably a little earlier in the day. read more

Been there a bunch of times before the original owners sold it. From what I've tasted it has improved. The original brewer is still there. Which is cool. They need to bring their recipes to another level. It's like the little engine that could. So close but so far. Hopefully they will perfect their brews. read more

What an amazing indoor/outdoor location they have! Extremely spacious and could fit quite a number of people. We came on a Saturday so they had live music which was such a great way to spend the afternoon, especially after COVID lock-down! Beer is excellent and they have a great variety of beers, which is good because I like lighter beers and my husband is more of IPA. Plastic cups only outside, glass/flights indoors. I personally would suggest getting the smaller size if you're outside just so it doesn't get hot, but that's my own opinion. Food trucks come here so check out the rotating menu for something tasty! Staff was all very friendly and knowledgable. Thanks! read more

We enjoyed our time there. The space is eclectic and comfortable- very spacious. Beers are tasty- although lacking much dimension. We did 2 flights which allowed us to try each of the 8 beers that were available. 2 stand outs with more complex tastes were Blood Orange IPA and the Autumn Ale. read more

THIS PLACE WAS "HOPPING" Giving this place 5 stars now because they have totally upped their game since last time I was here. Went here on a Friday night and they had both music AND food in addition to their fine selection of beer and corn hole. Order food delivered if you're ultra-hungry though, as it was light Jamaican patties on this particular night. I recommend checking their website for events and food as it's always changing. read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed as we have been in a few times already. There aren't many breweries around the area so we were happy to stumble upon this one when we were out and about. It's a really well coming atmosphere. We tried every beer they had and all were well made. It's female owner which is amazing as you don't see that often in the beer world. It's worth the drive and a great place to grab a few brews on a lazy day. Cheers ! See y'all soon. read more

This place is great! Wonderful atmosphere, amazing beers! The staff here knew their beers and had great recommendations. The owners were here and enjoying the atmosphere. We're very welcoming and introduced themselves to everyone. First time here on a Friday night... great live music, food truck and delicious beer. Highly recommend there craft brews, the Aloha is Hawaii in your mouth! A must try for beers and fun! read more

CraftRoots Brewing - Menu with a cool piece of art - Breweries Near Me - Milford, Massachusetts

Stopped by here on a Friday night and it was packed! Live music and a food truck. Kind of your typical industrial building converted to a brewery. Really nice staff. Beer was OK. I had one Hazy IPA they referred to as one of the "fan favorites" it was a solid hazy but not spectacular. This brewery definitely attracts a certain age demographic. read more

The space is very nicely finished with some attention to detail that you don't see in other breweries. We enjoyed our flight but nothing really jumped out at us. I liked the red rye particularly because it was NOT the hoppy IPA that you find so often these days. We would definitely stop by again if we are in the area (though we'll grab a pizza first.) Also, this brewery is owned an operated by a woman, which is a rarity in the beer world and worth supporting. She does a great job in creating an inviting space and making good beer to drink in it! read more

Cool place, tasty beer and awesome staff. The place is kind of located in an industrial part of town and is not the easiest to find. But you'll be happy you did. The drinking room is really cool, especially when it's nice out and the large garage doors are open. The tanks are exposed and offer a great backdrop for the corn hole boards. The place is well designed, with great attention to detail. There is about 15 seats at the bar, and table seating for at least 25 more. In addition to corn hole, there is some board games as well. This spot is byof, so you can stroll in there with a whole pizza and eat it with their delicious beers. The IPA was my favorite beer. It has a great hoppy finish. I will definitely be back here. They say it closes at 10 pm on Fridays but if there's people at the bar, they'll stay open longer. read more

I will amend this post under 1 condition: To the owners, please get rid if the rude, miserable bartender with black hair and the tattoo on the shoulder. Perhaps the most miserable person I've met. Very rude with absolutely no provocation. Great beer, great atmosphere, great owners, the attitude of the service was astounding and if me and the group of 10 i was with every see her in this establishment again, we will leave. read more

Went Friday March 19. Place was busy early and the beer was delicious! They had a wing place serving up some great wings and they had a tofu dish for the vegetarian with us. Robin (one of the owners) stopped by to chat. You can just tell she is passionate about the brewery business as well as making sure everybody feels welcome and has a good time. Apparently they open the garage doors on weekends in the nice weather with bands etc. Can't wait to experience that! Great beer and people. What else can you ask for! read more

Fun, lively place with great entertainment. Staff is fun and friendly. Owners are so available to chat and show you around. Great local gem. Oh, the beers great too! read more

Great beer at a sort of hidden industrial park location. Nice owners, nice customers. Bring your own food too. Please please please upgrade the music system..... Dorm room speakers do not cut it in that size space Sound is weak and are really bad. read more

Great atmosphere, good beer! Weird they don't allow tasting. They make you pay for a flight. I've never been to a brewery that doesn't let you taste. Otherwise great place. read more

My wife & I have been to at least 60 breweries and some multiple times in Massachusetts. Stopped here after a visit to Southwick Zoo. We enjoyed our conversation with the co-owner, Maureen. The staff were pleasant as well. Delicious, fresh beer! Plenty of seating, relaxed fun atmosphere! On our list to return!! read more

Would give more if I could!!! Awesome experience! All girls are down to earth and common sense logical during this time of government contr Thank you Robin!!! Love your beer and establishment !!!!!!! I will send everyone I can and will certainly return at some point!! Keep up the great work and see you soon!!!!!!! Love ye! read more

A great local brewery with live music and varied food trucks on the weekend. A rarity in breweries as it is owned by 2 woman, who are always around chatting with the customers and manning the bar. They have indoor cornhole, games to choose from, and sometimes host art events. I wish there was more parking, but otherwise, a great place to spend an afternoon or evening. read more

Wonderfully nice staff. I hosted an essential oil event here and received overwhelming support and accommodations from the staff from the moment I booked to the end of the event. Highly recommend them for your next event. Their rotating beer selection always pleases everyone in the party. They have games and bands for your entertainment. Great local place. read more

Do you like craft brews, fun, and a good time!? This is a LOCAL GEM! The staff, the atmosphere, the drink! It's more than anyone could ask for in one place. Owners Maurine and Robin are beyond words for hospitality and hard work. The two partner up to in the creation of something spectacular! The inclusive environment, the community involvement, and music life are just a few of the many qualities Craftroots Brewery possesses. If you are in the Milford, MA area, stop on by and enjoy some of the best locally brewed craft beers you can find! So bring some food, an activity for your table, or grab one of the many games they have to entertain you and your friends! read more

I have been here twice and each time the beer was ice cold and the bands were pretty good. Older crowd when I was there (40 -60). I like that the music is loud but you can still carry on a conversation. Very relaxed vibe- saw a few people playing cards etc. Friendly laid back atmosphere. Would give 5 stars if there was bar food- wings, nachos etc.. Will be back often! read more

Considering there are a ton of amazing breweries in MA, especially in the western part which offer delicious beer, inviting atmosphere, and live entertainment, I wouldn't waste my time at CraftRoots! Service sucks and the owner sucks more. She very unprofessional and confrontational for someone who has bar stools in an empty' parking lot. The beer is mediocre at best. The only saving grace was the band. read more

Place is so awesome if there were 6 stars, I'd try giving 7. Friendly owner and staff. Beer is really good. Sommer Blanc was a hit as was the stout. The setup is very simple. We drank and played cards for 4 hours, brought our own food. No frills is the way to cater a craft brewing experience to write home about it. This place hits it. Nothing fancy but clean, simple, maintained, and friendly. Plus the brew was top notch. Great job crew! read more

This was a total shocker for me. We had a gang of friends (all 56-65) that planned a fun night out and someone suggested this brewery. I'm not a craft beer guy so start there. Well, joke's on me! This a great spot that is nothing like you might expect. I drank their stout which was just delicious. I like stout generally if I'm not drinking just regular old bottled beer because it is infused with nitrogen making it a lot less bloaty feeling and it goes down smoothly. They had a fun band playing tunes we brought food (yes, it is a BYOF place) as all the sell is their beer. Get there early because they close at 10PM and they are not a "bar" in the classic sense; they are a craft brewer that is setup nicely with utilitarian furniture and great beer! I will definitely go back here again. read more

Oddly I heard about this through my wine club, and decided to give it a try. The beer was really good - they had 9 options to try with everything from blonde to stout. They are not allowed to sell food, though they do have pretzels and some light snacks, but you can bring food with you to enjoy with the beer. They give the option of a four beer sampler (I recommend starting with this), and they have 8 and 16oz pours of everything. There are seats right at the bar, and there are high tops,tables, and a function room. The bar itself is pretty cool as it is made from 2 very large pieces of wood. The people were very nice and they give the option of paying or running a tab. It is very close to I-495 and MA 109, but not on the main drag. You would never find it by mistake, but definitely worth the trip! read more

my fiance surprised me with a visit to this brewery last night, and i'm so glad he did. the vibe is very casual and relaxed, but grown up. the garage doors were open, letting in a bit of a breeze. the space is quite large, but they've paid a lot of attention to detail; it feels very "finished" in a good way. there's a beautiful wooden art piece over the bar, and there are tree accents everywhere ("roots" brewing, get it?) that are really just lovely. for the beers, they have a good variety of styles. i think their red rye ale was my favorite. nice and deep, with a bit of a chocolate finish. the double ipa was also good, and the blonde was phenomenal- better than any other i've had. like most other breweries, they have a few non-beer things available for purchase: some sodas, chips, and local made pretzels. they also have a good variety of take out menus from some of the local joints, a few that even deliver. staff were friendly and helpful, and our fellow patrons all seemed to be enjoying themselves. with this spot being just ten minutes from our house, we will absolutely be back. kudos to them, as they seem to be having some success. the place was fairly full at around 9 on a friday night. read more

The beer is fantastic and the owners are so nice....delivery available during Stay at Home order available.

Beer is pretty good however with this COVID-19 going around either bring your own cup/glass or avoid altogether. Was there the other night and the way they hand wash their glasses is horrible.. I would stick to a place that use sanitizing dishwashers then chill glasses after. read more

I love this place to hang out with my friends. Aloha Blonde and Route 16 IPA are my favorites.

I've been coming to Craft Roots frequently over the last year with nothing but great experiences. Typically great beer and great servers. I invited a group of friends to join us on Saturday and we had the worst experience. We were there for two hours and only approached once by the server who is also the owner. I tried to order at the bar and was told by the owner I was not allowed to order at the bar. After not being serviced, I asked for our check, which was never given to us as she was busy talking with other patrons. I had to ask another server who was very busy but was able to help us out. Great beer, but I'll unfortunately not go back due to the owners lack of customer service. read more

Found this hidden Gem durning my weekend trip in NE. Have visited many different brewery's all over the states and found this one to be a really cool place to hang , drink some brew and listen to tunes! The service was excellent, bartenders need only to hear your name once and they got it! Many beers to choose from so I recommend the Flight! I'm a big Porter drinker so I recommend the only porter the have on the menu! The live music was pretty awesome as well. Outside they had a Food truck selling pizza but I didn't get a chance to try. In all , I would definitely hit this place again and recommend it for anyone looking to have a good time! read more
