    Six piece wings medium buffalo

    This is one of those places that my wife and I went back to, twice on a two-day visit. We started with the six wings with medium buffalo. My wife's had the blackened shrimp tacos with a side of mac and cheese. And I had the pizza, with pepperoni and mushrooms. I had the affo world wide Stout, both times. It will put hair on your chest. Everything was great hence why we made a repeat visit. Great service. We will definitely be back.

    Beet salad and the Reuben
    Elizabeth M.

    A lively vibe greeted us when we came by for an early Saturday night dinner! We had a super server, Sean, who made spot on recommendations! We started with a few samplings from the taps. Then, we narrowed down our dinner choices and decided to split a salad and a sandwich. When they arrived promptly, we were thrilled to have our beet salad and Reuben split evenly and plated separately! Well done, Sean and kitchen!! Both were delicious!! We also enjoyed watching basketball on the big screen. Overall, Dogfish Head for the win!!

    just shipped my pants wings

    Genuinely the best dining experience we've had in Rehoboth! allll of our food came out amazing and fresh. The pretzel bites were phenomenal and the beer cheese is the best in town. The Shakespeare in Harlem Pizza was quite possibly the best craft pizza i've ever had. the just shipped my pants wings are so flavorful and had a really nice amount of spice (definitely HOT). will be adding this place to our restaurant tradition.

    Calamari
    Alan J.

    Stopped here for some much needed respite from a busy month. Took the advice of my new bar mate friend by ordering the calamari. Great call. Very light and crunchy. Not chewy. The fried jalapeño pieces were an added plus. The dipping honey sauce was too magical to touch. The blackened shrimp tacos were a hit. The side of cole slaw was too dry though. Old fashioned to drink and my night was made proper. Would definitely recommend.

    Crab pizza
    Jenny T.

    I really liked the interior and I thought the food was decent. The crab pizza was super cheesy, but a bit heavy and greasy. The parmesan truffle fries were addictive. Minus two stars because the hosts just were not welcoming. I don't want to say that all breweries allow strollers but many do since there's generally a lot of space and it's pretty family friendly. The host acted like we were trying to dine in our bathing suits; like we were smelly; like we were doing something so repulsive by bringing in the stroller with our 5 month old. In fact we were waiting for our friends to arrive and stood there for a moment because it was raining and we didn't have much to cover the baby... And she asked us to go outside because we couldn't have the stroller inside. Later I think I noticed they did the same thing to another family, so at least they were fair...I think I noticed them looking back at us and saying something. Anyway it was a very weird experience that threw off my mood at the beginning of a nice meal. Interior was really cool-looking and spacious --which also makes me wonder why there is a no stroller policy... It's Delaware law, I guess but it seems so arbitrary... Shouldn't it be specific to buildings? Either way, the front of house staff just seemed so rude about it. We didn't know about the no stroller policy in Delaware... Why be like that to paying customers? Maybe the businesses in Delaware should write to their legislators to try and get this law changed if it bothers staff so much. I'm assuming there are a lot of families like us that come in town wanting to have a beer, despite having an infant or young children who need strollers.

    Birria taco
    Christine J.

    Delicious. We went here on a recent trip. My husband had an exotic pizza with curry on it and I had the birria tacos. We also shared the pretzel bites for the table. It was a lot of food. But all delicious and we loved the ambiance of the place especially the outdoor seating around. Staff was nice and attentive.

    There's so many things to like here. Every time we come, the weight staff has been happy, right, knowledgeable, and pleasant. No exceptions. That's a great record. But the food. Oh my goodness. The dollar wings on Sundays is a very good deal, because the buffalo wings are some of the best in town, and are very similar to the ones at Summer House. The dry wings are the ones that my partner prefers and he loves those. The roast beef, which is actually ribeye on a whack sandwich roll, is also spectacular. There's Caesar salads are also good. Another ones, we haven't been able to go wrong yet with anything we've ordered here. And by the way, their blue cheese dressing is made in house, and it is truly exceptional.

    Pizza to die for
    paul s.

    It's been over 11 years since my last review of this place so I thought I'd review it again. I've tried to go there several times over the last couple of years with my gf, but every time we got there and found out there was a 45-minute or longer wait we would just walk down the street to Chesapeake and Maine instead. I hate waiting that long to eat and as a rule, I usually won't do it. But the other night I was by myself and it was fairly early, around five-ish, and I very easily got a seat at the bar. I was finally able to taste the pizza that I've heard so much about and it totally lived up to the hype. It was fantastic!

    Pretty Cocktail
    Sarah C.

    Good food. Good beer. Loud, busy environment (great for kids. ha). To be upfront about it: there is a waitlist. It is long. It does move faster than they say it will, but it still does take a while. Yes, it looks like tables are open, and the space is large, but I don't know, they have a system I guess. We didn't really wait that long, but we waited. Good beer. Not blow your mind beer, but really very solid beer. Can't say one sticks out to me, but that's the point, they are all fine choices - pick the style you normally like. (although they do recommend pairings for certain dishes). They also have cocktails for those that are feeling un beer. The food was all good. I think the standout of the night was the macaroni and cheese with wings in it. Great spot for kids. good kids menu and kids drinks. Service was fairly quick once we were seated. Although our appetizer was somehow forgotten, but that was actually for the better in the end as we'd ordered too much food and our server comp'ed us a beer in apology.

    Shrimp tacos
    Emily V.

    This is a really great spot to pop in for lunch after a morning on the beach. It's spacious and service was quick. I love all of the cocktail and drink options. We had a plethora of food items, but I'd definitely recommend the corn ribs to start, especially if you're a fan of street corn. My family members had the After the Storm pizza which they liked, but was a bit salty. I had the chili cheese dog duo which I enjoyed but wish it just had a bit more cheese sauce. My brother enjoyed his shrimp tacos as well. For dessert, you cannot go wrong with the banana pudding! Overall, I'd recommend if you're looking for a nice lunch or dinner in the area!

    Lively and open. Waitstaff not super friendly. I had dignity of movement pizza. Hubs had chili cheese dogs both of which were okay. My beer was super cold so that was good!! I expected better on the food and service.

    The Undefeated and The Light of the World pizza
    Jessi C.

    We went after the Rehoboth Marathon and although the restaurant was crowded we were able to score standing room behind the bar. The service was amazing for the lunch rush that was happening - both the food and drinks came out super quick. The Pear-This cocktail was delicious and all of the drinks are reasonably priced. The pizzas were also impressive for bar pies (the undefeated one was amazing!) and affordable, especially for the area. They also have a store front right next door where you can buy cans/growlers/liquor to take home. We would definitely return here!

    I was soooo stoked to visit this place! I was introduced to Dogfish 90 minute in the Florida Keys and never knew there was a restaurant. I was geeked to find out that I was near it while in town for work. The place was booming! Packed upstairs in the rafters, downstairs, and at the bar. Service was very slow and there were a lot of employees saying they were new and had only been working for a week, at that point. The food was decent and took over an hour to make it to the table. For me, the drinks were the best part and the gift shop. I would eat somewhere else next time.

    Do they have vegan options?

    The menu changes from time to time, but vegan options are not a priority in my experience.

    Do they have college football on Saturday afternoon?

    Is cigar smoking permitted at Dogfish Head Brewing?

    No smoking inside. Don't think there is an outside but I wouldn't think it would be allowed anyway. I would ask the manager.

    Are dogs welcome?

    Definitely not inside. There is an outside dining area open during warmer months, but I'm not sure if they allow dogs there.

On a Thursday mid-afternoon we were on our way back to the house from the Indian River Inlet and were in the mood to relax with a beer. Luckily, Bethany Bay Brewing was right on our way home so we took a little detour. The parking lot was pretty empty but to our surprise it was rather crowded. The beertender, Mack, was right there to greet us. She was very nice and helpful, did a great job explaining their tap list, and even gave us recommendations for other local establishments to try out. She also gave us an opportunity to taste any beer before we ordered a pint which is much appreciated! My dad got an IPA while my mom and I got flights (5 pours for $15). I enjoyed all of the beers I tried, especially the Blueberry Blonde and Blood Orange IPA. I would have been happy ordering a full pour of any of the beers I had in my flight (I also had Riptide Double IPA, Dark Seas Chocolate Stout, and Birds Nest Lager). They also provide complementary popcorn to their guests which is a thoughtful gesture. They have seltzers, wines, and ciders available for any non-beer drinkers out there, and I did see a sign signifying discounts for veterans and cyclists! If I lived locally I would definitely be a regular here. Next June I will definitely make it a point to stop in and have another flight of 5 beers I didn't try during this visit. We were very pleased with our short visit and were very happy we made the decision to stop in on our way home.

Shocked to find out a martini flight (totaling two drinks' worth of alcohol) was $38! I got one espresso martini instead and it was really a watered-down "latte martini"--sweeter and less coffee flavor than others I've had. Service was neither particularly good nor particularly bad, but overhearing the [manager? owner?] telling a fellow customer that he was "mad at" the bartender for being late to work that morning left a bad taste in my mouth. You shouldn't share your employees'/coworkers' shortcomings or mistakes with customers, and you shouldn't be "mad" at someone for being late to work (because it's not a personal affront, and because everyone is late sometimes). We felt that, while it had a nice atmosphere, we could find better food and drinks not far away.

They do tours here too, and they have a tree house which I thought was nice. (To go up you need to join a tour) . Wife and I chose only to drink eat and play bingo. It was a great night to walk in and to drink and play bingo! Thank you Dogfish Head it was all so good

    My girlfriend and I booked the hour tour at noon on a Friday. We arrived right at noon, and the…read moretour was already on the move, so definitely arrive early to get the safety overview and glasses (especially because it's easy to get stuck behind some farm vehicles in that area). The tour was above and beyond what we expected! Our tour guide, Susie, was absolutely fantastic. She knew everything and anything about the history of the brewery and the science behind it all. She was so enthusiastic and a genuine joy to spend the hour with! Our tour got to go up in the treehouse and that was very neat! After the tour (and a little bit during) we tasted many beers that are not available to the general public. It's pretty obvious why this brewery is so popular - all of their beers, even the ones you may not gravitate towards (for us, dark beers) are smooth and well balanced. There are plenty of tables inside and outside and some snacky food options. They have corn hole set up as well. We also think we may have spotted Mr. Sam himself while we were there, which was an added bonus! We ended the day in the gift shop where you can buy beer, canned cocktails, spirits and lots of cool merch!
