Florida's Oldest Craft Brewery! Was in town for 2015 Thanksgiving with my Fiancee's family and decided to do a little site seeing in this part of town that she had her college reunion in. She had mentioned i might like the bar scene here and I always up to checking out new places. Atmosphere: It's quite the laid back but also during special nights they have live music. If you're not into the live music and just want to chill and catch some sports on TV. Their little nook has a few tables, another bar with different beer taps, TV's, and a full menu you can order from. Beers: There was nice list of choices of beer. I thought there would be more because I saw on the website they listed some i didn't see in the main area. But i was informed that in "The Nook" there would be a few more to try out. 2015 Holiday Pharmhouse Ale: best holiday beer i've tried yet. great refreshing finish. Universal Fortuity: IPA. it was okay. compared to stone ipa, it was kinda watery Jackie Bones: pumpkin, good flavor. ok finish. Colossal Shred: very nice Belgium tripel at 9%. almost like the holiday pharmhouse but on the bitter sweeter side. Food: pretzels: a nice basket that could feed 3-4 people for $5. pretzels were nicely baked. soft buttery salty exterior. the dough was ok. went well with the side of mustard and a beer. Cheese curds: basket full of little baked soft buttery cheese curds. very addicting. great savory cheesy flavor that went great with beer. lots of other appetizers and entrees to choose from. check the website. Service: When we first came in we ordered at the main entrance. I wanted to try out a flight but one of the bartenders said it was only between a certain time and that had passed. i was okay with that. i just stuck to snifters. went into the nook. the guy with the dreads and glasses was very attentive. good service. we did come back and ended our night to meet a couple more friends at this brewery. i ordered my last drink and noticed one of my friends was able to get a flight of samples and this was around 11pm. was kinda disappointed i didn't get a flight to try out many beers. Overall: Great ambiance. Good beers. Delicious Food. Good service. Definitely a place to hangout and relax. Would have been 5 stars but being mislead about beer flight samples is quite unfair for first time customers. read more

I stopped in Dunedin Brewery on my last night in Clearwater Beach. It was about a 10 minute drive from my Hotel over to the brewery. I ended up tasting everything on the beer menu that night - so my flights equaled: Apricot Peach Ale (6.2% ABV) Pale Ale (6.0% ABV) American Classic IPA (7.0% ABV) Capsaicin VIII Morita Chili Pale Ale (6.0% ABV) Dram Alter Blonde Ale (6.2% ABV) Spatz Barleywine (9.0% ABV) Overall, I thought this lineup of brews was very average, but one stood out and was a rock star in my opinion - the Capsaicin VIII Morita Chili Pale Ale! It had good complexity and depth of flavor. The Chili was subtle and would hit you slowly in the back of your throat and a slow, comfortable burn would ensue! Loved this Ale ! The atmosphere was hip and inviting - and there was a band performing that night - I wish I knew there name! They were incredible! The music was entrancing! read more

Came here for a quick bite and beer while bar hopping in Dunedin. The service was amazing with staff constantly helping us explain the different food and drink options! We got the apricot ale which was super refreshing for a warmer Florida afternoon. We also settled on the poutine to snack on because you can't go wrong with fries, cheese curds and pulled pork! We ended up getting the sauce on the side because we weren't really sure how a spicier, almost wing-like sauce would go on poutine. That was definitely the right call. The sauce is good but probably would have been too much with every bite. read more

One of my favorite places to have some craft beers in downtown Dunedin. It is centrally located and directly across the street from the free parking garage. There are tons of picnic tables outside in the front terrace and on the side of the building. The inside has a giant open area where they have live bands come and play (this is a must to see). The main bar is also in the large open area then there is a smaller side room that is much more personal if you want to get away from the crowd. If you are in the area during Oktoberfest then you have to visit the Dunedin Brewery. Beer 5/5 Atmosphere 5/5 read more

Great service and a variety of original and unique beers. We didn't order food but everything I saw come out of that kitchen looked amazing. The staff were attentive and they were not plaguing around with Covid regulations which I respect. Will def be back! read more

We were passing through the area and scoped out the local breweries. Luckily for us, Dunedin Brewery has a tour with the brewmaster on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 5pm and IT WAS SATURDAY!!! It takes less than an hour and you get some great information about how they brew their beers. The brewmaster, Norman, has had a lot of experience and he is really knowledgeable. You get to taste a few of the beers while he talks about how they're made. It's a small set up, so it's a smaller tour than you'd get at a big brewery, but still fun. It's $5 and you get a pint glass to keep. After the tour, you can have some grub. We had some buffalo chicken tenders and fried cheese curds. They were tasty. We tried a few of the beers and were happy that they had just finished brewing an IPA, since that's our favorite. I also tried the Apricot Peach Ale and it was also pretty good... for a fruit beer! We weren't there late, but it's my understanding they have live music on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and the place was pretty busy with locals. Also had lots of Scots in kilts the day we were there and I suspect this may be their hangout. In other words, its a fun place to hang out and if you're in the area, you may want to give it a try! read more

I brought some friends from out of town here and they never serve you. I'm so embarrassed to recommend this place. Then all the bar inside seats are taken and 20 min go by and still no people. They were so rude to us and only served the locals. read more

Came here for a couple of beers to check it out. Didn't eat as we had just come from dinner, though the wings looked and smelled really good! I had the Berliner Weisse beer and my husband had the Red Ale... My beer was OK - I've had better and i've had worse, he really liked the Red Ale. Its kind of a hike for us and there are definitely more local breweries I'd like to try. Its not great but its not awful. If I was in the area, I would drop in, but wouldn't make the trip just to go there. It seems as if they have bands nightly... Tuesday nights is the drum circle - yea, maybe I'd make a special trip for that - it sounds like fun! read more

The staff seemed to be in bad moods. They seemed annoyed when we wanted to order. No eye contact, no greeting, just 'wadda ya want' demeanor. Won't go back. read more

The curry ketchup is a must! The fish tacos are divine. The vegan bratwurst is delicious, and the mustard with the pretzel bites is spicy and flavorful! read more

Wow! Beer is good, food is good, and the service was amazing!!!!!! Jay was an awesome and attentive waiter! He was able to recommend some great selections and the whole table enjoyed! He was excellent and made this experience event better!!! read more

The level of unprofessionalism by the management at the place is pathetic. Hunter and Joe need a little training in customer service. Something that should be a quick fix from a mistake by their staff should not take weeks, phones calls and emails to resolve. I was double charged and have done everything they have asked to be reimbursed kindly and politely. We just called there again and the response was that they are too busy with lunch to do anything about it and to call back. Joe-per your words, I know you are not a restaurant and are a brewery but you serve food and drink and when one eats and drinks there they should be charged for their order and their order only. Further the fact that you are busy is not my problem, I'm busy too, also managing a food and beverage establishment and annoyed that I need to keep reaching out to this place to get back my money for something that I did not order, receive or enjoy. Don't waste your time at this place, it will cost you in the end. read more

Expensive beer , l stay with the specials , it's a nice place inside and outside. Daytime they have Happy Hour and I've taken my cribbage and chessboards and met some very nice acquaintances. They sometimes have good bands at night and there's so much to do in that same area. Dunedin rocks , I'm 73 but I still love rock and roll . read more

6/22/18 - we were driving through the Dunedin area and found Breweries with food on Yelp ! Stopped at Dunedin Brewery...Florida's Oldest Microbrewery. We opened the place up.... but by time we ordered lunch, they had quite a crowd. Families came in as well. The decor is fun stuff...... our eyes were constantly shifting around to find interesting things. Staff was very friendly. We sampled a couple of beers to find the one that fit our tastebuds. There were several that we liked. We ordered the Grilled Chicken wrap for lunch. Delicious !! I didn't care for the pineapple coleslaw but my husband loved it. I forgot to take pictures but this place comes Highly recommended..... in our eyes. read more

Four 5oz beers for $10 isn't a bad deal. We ordered cheese curds, a burger, and a mixed salad with beer infused blue cheese were scrumptious. Service was good, but a bit slow. read more

The Dunedin Brewery typically has great food, the atmosphere although typically crowded and loud is fun with mostly good bands and great brews. I have visited twice recently and received not so great food or service but I want to be clear that 2 out of 20 is pretty good and I'm only saying something in case you happen to go on a not so good day then just know that you have to give it another try. So let's start with what is amazing - the wings, the nachos, pulled pork sliders and the fish burrito with fries. The cheese curds are good, tots are good, and if you're in the mood for a cold brew I highly recommend the Apricot Peach Ale which they brew. The wings are somehow crispy like fried chicken yet also smokey and tender like they were slow smoked for hours. The nachos are giant and so tasty - get them with pulled pork (they have great pulled pork). The pulled pork sliders are amazingly tasty, sweet and tangy. You can get the fish tacos as small tacos but I prefer to eat it as a burrito and upgrade the chips it comes with to their amazing fries. The cheese curds and tots are also really good. If you're looking for a chill, low key meal I would come during the day. If you want so great food while enjoying some good brews and funky toons then visit at night but beware it's real busy and kinda loud - not great for conversing with friends. read more

With the claim to be Florida's oldest craft brewery you have to figure that they've been doing something right to stick around for a while. But that's not the reason I stopped in. I wanted some beer and lunch. They had a decent selection of brews on tap and a pretty reasonable menu for a brewery. I opted for a pale ale and my wife chose the IPA (a little too high in ABV for me since I was driving). Both beers were good, not great. I would certainly drink them again but that's not really a ringing endorsement from me since I'll drink a lot of types of beer. They felt a little flat and didn't tickle my taste buds like I hoped. Perhaps I chose unwisely. Sure seems like they had an adequate supply of options. For lunch we opted for fish tacos but noticed they were served on hard shells. We asked if they could substitute soft shells but were told they don't offer them. Bummer. But our bartender said they could do them in wraps. That worked! They were quite good!! The space is quite nice, the list of nightly "events" seemed like a great idea, and the food was good. I'll go back and try a different beer. Maybe a couple if I can get someone else to drive. read more

Great beer, great burger and super pleasant service. Loved the redhead ale. Live bands on the weekend

Horrible experience with the staff. After 15 minutes we had to request a server. I had to go back to the bar later to find the server and pay the bill. While the server was turned around running the card, a bartender swiped my tip and threw it in a bucket. I asked her why she did that. She told me "It doesn't matter. We pool our tips." Matter or not, the server didn't even know if I tipped her at that point and how much. I shared it with the server and she shrugged like I was the one making the big deal. Then when I put zero on the tip line (because I already had the $20 tip for our $60 bill was swiped from me on the bar & it was thrown in a bucket) - she gave me a dirty look. I was astonished. I know serving is hard and I try to tip well considering. I won't come here again or do that again. read more

My friends and I were at the brewery in Dunedin we had a great time together. We sat outside in the fresh air and sun under an umbrella. Great atmosphere. The tacos were the best! We also had chicken wings that were very good Apricot beer was my favorite for the day I was there read more

Best chicken wings and great selection of beers on tap. All in a chill friendly atmosphere.

We swung by here for a quick lunch one day when heading back to the Clearwater area. Overall, ok experience. Parking is tight! We had one of the last spots; I think there are maybe 5 or 6? Construction across the way limited the options. The inside was pretty neat; looked like a garage and had a very industrial feel. The smell of the brewery wafted throughout and that was nice. It was a bit smaller than I had expected. I know it's an older brewery and thought maybe it would be a slightly bigger operation. Beer was good, food was OK and they served wine which my wife opts for. Friendly staff. read more

This is a really great place if you go in knowing you're going to receive TERRIBLE service but great food. We chose this place because we were walking through Dunedin and wanted a local place to eat/drink. Right when you walk in, you'll notice the ordering bar for drink and food are right in the same spot. The kitchen is also directly behind that. So start with the cluster that is that area. So what, you say? Get over it, right? So I did. We asked questions and we're waited on by a young man named Max. We couldn't have been rushed any more (understandably, since the entrance and food ordering and beer ordering and food pickup are all in the same place; therefore, waiting there creates a crowd). Now maybe the info above makes more sense. Now, we get our beers and decide that we'd like to order some food. Lucky us! Two seats open right at the bar! We sit down and can't help but notice the extra, EXTRA sticky, dirty bar top. So I ask Max to wipe it down. He pulls a rag out of his back pocket and wipes it hurriedly. Unfortunately, his wipe down cleaned nothing. I would have asked him again, except he left so fast that I didn't have a chance. So we waited some more (about 4-5 minutes) before he acknowledged us again. I asked him to wipe the counter down again, and I got "the look" and another wipe. Noticing my face, he turned around, grabbed some cleaner, sprayed it on the rag and wiped again. Even after all that, you'd think the counter was clean. Nope! Easily, 4 sticky drink stains remained (but who's counting?!)?! I know maybe this doesn't seem like a big thing, but for me, it is. I don't want to rest my arms on a wet table that's just been wiped down (yuck) or lay my sleeves in someone else's sticky drink residue. Just gross. Then I asked for a beer menu (after hearing another customer offered one) and another guy pointed to the menu in front of me and said, "There it is". He was pointing to the menu written above me in chalk, while I'm looking at the stack of beer menus in front of me. He looked at me confused, as if I'd ask to see a menu of dinosaurs. Interestingly enough, a customer standing at the busy ordering spot said, "she wants to see a menu with descriptions and explanations". Apparently, he could understand, but the guy who worked there couldn't. I still never got to see the menu. The good part - and why this review gets two stars - is because the tacos and the poutine were delicious. The pork was flavorful and seasoned to perfection. The tacos were hearty. I wish their focus would be on providing some excellent customer service, paired with some eye contact to welcome the folks that come in. I myself made eye contact and said hi two times to the bearded fellow (nice beard!), but couldn't get any response in return. The customers that approached the counter were hurried and even a little frenzied, since that's the service they received. They've got a great tag line - "Florida's Oldest Microbrewery". Too bad "oldest" doesn't correlate to "best". I'll keep my fingers crossed, though. They have a great opportunity to turn things around. read more

3.5 stars. Beer was good but husband wanted a flight and many he wanted were unavailable. He had wings and a salad, ordering small sizes of both. He received a large salad but was charged for the small one. I had the apricot peach beer and, as advertised, it was a crisp, refreshing fruity beer. Love that most beer is offered in 4 sizes ranging from 5 to the standard 16 ounces. I had the zucchini burrito, definitely a different combo. Not bad but the zucchini overpowered the other ingredients (if the chunks were not so large, it might have been better). We each had a second 5 ounce beer which was the perfect amount to finish our dinners. Very reasonably priced meal. Caution: very small parking lot (6 spaces) and no very close street parking. We did see a number of people arrive by golf cart. read more

So been going there for years. Its a great place BUT since covid the menu has changed. The once great delicious burgers now have half the size meat. The bun is 3 times larger than beef patty. Wgen you order blue cheese its now salad dressing for burger...yuck. so dissapointing and same prices. Nachos have veru little pork on them. Like 2 bites. Beer and entertainment are always good. Dissapointed the great food is history. read more

It's a hipster hangout. Music is definitely geared to twenty and thirty somethings. Just a heads up because it's too loud inside for conversation. Decent pub food. Not exactly a date destination if you're not already into a relationship and you both enjoy this kind of atmosphere. It's for beer enthusiasts. read more

Rude people working there, called in an order and the idiot was too lazy to give me different types of wings they offer. WTF? He hung up on me and I had to call back and say 'I think you hung up on me". He said 'how can I help you?" I said "I asked you what type of wings you have and you hung up on me". He said "you can find them on the website". Who are these people? My buddy hates going In there. They have great wings but he is sick of the rudeness coming from the straggly beards and man bun hair, my friend said this has been going on for about a year now. Owners need to make a few changes. The best wings in Pinellas county can only carry you so far! read more

Best best in the heart of downtown Dunedin , live music , great beer, good people and the most amazing wings! Really really good food!

Service is almost always bad (except for the one guy who always has the top hat on). Beer is mid, food is at least good. Wish they would start caring about their customers a tad more. Been coming back to 're-try' Dunedin brewery (I'm a local) for way too long read more

I truly love this Dunedin neighborhood. It has several new craft breweries, good restaurants, a bike trail entrance and a terrific Farmer's market on the weekends. This craft brewery, in particular, is pretty cool, and it serves food, which is unusual for a craft brewery tasting room. The bartenders, and this isn't too unusual, are very knowledgeable. Friendly, too. I tried a flight so I could sample different varieties. Everything was pretty good. Plus, I ordered some chips and dip. Good combination of beer and snacks, and a pleasant atmosphere. I visit from Fort Lauderdale to see my elderly father, and I always make it a point to visit this up-and-coming neighborhood. In part, it's because of places like this. I look forward to returning, and bringing others with me so that they can see this place as well, and enjoy it like I do. read more

Came here for lunch and a drink. To order you have to go inside. Once you order, they give you number to place on the table. Seats are communal. Food items are al la carte. Unless you get their daily special. Day I went, it was BBQ brisket sandwich with a side. The sandwich was delicious!!! My only complaint, it was too smokey for my taste. The sauce was amazing. The brisket was extremely tender. The brioche bun was a great touch. I topped of the sandwich with their "New Milk". Best way to describe it, a lite Guinness. Same dark color. But it seems a little thinner and not so heavy. Perfect for me. read more

Great beer and delicious food! I like their Hefeweizen but there are a lot of other good options and variety of beers to choose from. Also their food is very good. I had the bbq brisket and Mac and cheese burrito and that was really delicious and such a large portion that it was hard to finish. We also had their chicken wings were also amazing. They had Thai peanut sauce for the wings as a special and if you like sweet+spicy those are for you! Definitely recommend stopping here for a bite and one of their beers. read more

I would give it a 5/5 beers were yummy but wouldn't split my sauce and let me order half of one and half for the other kinda weird but ok.

Want to have a great Wednesday eve? This place is it. Food was impressive for a bar... my pulled pork sandwich was great! On brioche!! Wish I got the cole slaw instead of fries... because it was good!! I never say that! Service was great by Sarah... and a good selection of beer... even though I couldn't find one I liked. Get to know citra hops guys..... and maybe filter the water. The band was fantastic!!! I love this place for a night out with friends . read more
