I attended an event here the other night. Beautiful spot and great space, serving organic beer, with some interesting brews being offered. I do not drink beer and was happy that they had 2 great wines to offer on this night, a Syrah blend and a chenin blanc blend. On certain nights they have a wood fired kitchen with a very eclectic looking menu of toppings!! If you enjoy a brewery evening...add this to your list of stops. read more

Freehouse Brewery is a hidden gem. The setting alone makes it worth a visit. There's plenty of indoor seating along with a pool table and games, plus a great screened-in porch that's perfect when the weather is nice. Outside, the space really shines with a large patio and a huge lawn filled with picnic tables, cornhole, and beautiful marshfront views looking out toward the bridge. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend a few hours hanging out. I tried the Folly Blonde and it was super refreshing and very reasonably priced--exactly what you want from a casual brewery beer. Service is friendly counter service, and there's a permanent food truck on site serving pizza, wings, and salads. read more

A great local and the only certified organic brewery in South Carolina. Tons of seating, delicious pizzas, a wide variety of brews! Great views of the mighty Ashley River, some swag ( wish they had more). My favorite was the Frosty lager at 7.2% abv , delicious, not hoppy, but strong and tasty! read more

SOMEWHAT DOG FRIENDLY - Used to be pet friendly on the patio, but now there is a sign saying no pets. However, pets are still welcome on the property around the patio. We usually enjoy sitting outside with a beer overlooking the Ashley River. It has a very relaxed vibe and a decent amount of land so people are not onto of each other. My only complaint is the gnats were really bad - I mean REALLY bad. They really need to spray or set up fans or something, because we were being swarmed like I have never seen before. We were bit allover so after finishing the one drink we left. Would have liked to stay longer though, but couldn't deal with it anymore. read more

The view went well. Food is served Thursday-Sunday which is something to bear in mind. Really unique place and only place that even compares is holy city. More private place and while I don't want to publicize this cuz I want it all to myself, they do have a pool table. Huge place, the service I can only comment on one guy there who was awesome. Give this place a try if you've never been. read more

An ok place. Parking lot and entrance is a little strange. Service was very friendly. Plenty of seating and views of the marsh. read more

Freehouse Brewery - Breweries Near Me - North Charleston, South Carolina

Okay, I think I have a problem, this is like my 3rd review of FREEHOUSE! What I LOVE is that they are growing and expanding. They've opened another brewery in the upstate that is brewing different beers and you can get them here. Also, they are expanding the Charleston location. Every time I come, I see something new added to the outside area, and now it's obvious that they are expanding the inside as well. Today I had the Imperial Blaze pizza, light on the Calabrian pepper sauce, bc it can LIGHT YOU UP! And it's complimented with a hot honey drizzle! To balance the heat, I got a Cassidy Bridge (new) IPA. THIS WAS A FLAVOR EXPLOSION in my mouth!!! Kudos to the owner of Freehouse. They've got a GOOD THING BREWING!! read more

One of the coolest brewery venues I've been to! Right on the marsh with beautiful views. Lots of outdoor space, picnic tables, and more. No food but BOYF. Lots of beers on tap and flights available. Friendly staff. Lots of parking. A fake railroad crossing on your way there. Overall this place is awesome and I definitely recommend coming here on a nice day to sit outside with views of the marsh. Good beer and good times. read more

Really lovely riverside brewery - stopped by for a quick Sunday afternoon drink for our first visit and we were really pleasantly surprised at how great it was, yet relatively unknown. It's definitely off the beaten path, so be prepared for some bumpy industrial roads. The space is open with tons of seating inside and out. The kids loved the lawn, games and marsh access for fiddler crab hunting. Dig friendly and lots of great Adirondack chairs in the shade. The pizza was delicious and the drinks were good. Our bartender, Tom was really friendly and spent time telling us all about the drinks, giving small samples before we picked a rose hibiscus seltzer and a flight of beer, then a fun peach sour. We'll definitely be back! read more

Mid beer, mid service, had one beer and was charged $40 and it took DAYS for them to adjust the charge on my card. They don't have a phone number btw so be prepared to do some leg work if you have to work anything out with them. You've been warned. read more

This is a hidden gem in North Charleston with a great view and even better beer! It's a little hidden, so if this is your first time coming and you feel like you're going to the wrong place- just keep going, you're in the right place. There's plenty of space for parking and they have tables outside, as well as porch seating and inside. It's open-door with no AC, but they do have plenty of fans. They have some yard games and hold trivia a few nights a month too! The beer is excellent, and the service is also great. They have punch cards to get a free beer for every 10 pints, so make sure to grab one when you order! They have a wide selection of beer from IPAs, blondes, sours, and dark beers. We ordered pizza for the first time and it was a little overpriced and it was fine. It's good in a pinch but wouldn't necessarily come here for the food. read more

I'm originally from the North Charleston area but since leaving ~5 years ago, a lot has changed. Some friends of ours recommended Freehouse to us on a recent visit home and it was awesome. They have a beautiful outdoor space (and a little bit of marsh-side seating which is truly perfect). Their indoor space looked nice and was open to the elements when we visited in September. Bathrooms were clean. I can't drink beer so I was hoping they'd have a seltzer on tap, but unfortunately they had just kicked the keg. That was pretty disappointing (hence the -1 star). I can't remember if they had wine but I don't think they did, so my only options were lemonade or water. These days I really expect a brewery to have at least one GF alcohol option available so I was a little disappointed they didn't have another seltzer ready to go, but not much I could do about it. They had some live music inside when we went which I thought was well-volumed, but we still enjoyed our outdoor seating better. Freehouse is definitely on our list of place to visit again, so hopefully next time they'll have some gluten free options! read more

The beer was average... the low rating is partially because of that but also because of the bugs!! My fiancé and I came with our dog and she wasn't allowed on the deck area so we were stuck with all the gnats. We were completely swarmed and had to leave after chugging our 1 drink. I can't imagine coming in the summer months when the mosquitos are out. It would've been nice if our dog was allowed on the porch with us! Very nice view though! read more

Wow freehouse has now become not only my favorite brewery but my favorite drink location in all of charleston! I don't know how i missed coming here earlier, but I guess I'll just have to make up the lost time with many visits! What takes the cake for freehouse is their magnificent location: it's close to everything yet has a very secluded feel-you wouldn't know you are just a few minutes from downtown! My favorite thing about them is the sitting area down by the marsh. It couldn't be more perfect and feels like quintessential low country. Their beer is also great and they have other drink options as well. They have a regular live music schedule, and the best part about their live music is if you don't want to listen to it, there's plenty of seating outside, on the deck, or down by the marsh so you can escape easily! I love this since sometimes you want to talk with friends and not listen to music. Freehouse takes the cake. Go try them out! read more

Freehouse brewery has some phenomenal organic beers!! My partner and i came a couple days before my birthday as a pre-celebration, and ive never really thought about having an organic beer, but its nice to have a healthier option! the person working the bar- Ms Sammy, was so considerate and knew just what beers to recommend depending on what flavor profiles my partner and i prefer. The wonderful customer service from Sammy and the beautiful view right outside made the drive from Moncks Corner very worth it. 10/10 will visit again thank you!!! read more

Such a fun spot! This was our first time and it was great. The staff are so sweet and very knowledgeable about the selection! We had two flights and one of their wood fired pizzas- we got the Umberto pepperoni and hot honey pizza and it was delicious! The view is so pretty and overall it is a really nice place to hang out whether you're with family or friends! They also have darts and pool which is a plus. We will definitely be back! read more

Parking, live music, great beer, and an incredible view! Not much more you can ask for. My only issue, which seems to be common in all the reviews, is the bugs outside. I know you're outside on the water, there's going to be bugs. Definitely recommend bringing bug spray! read more

Freehouse Brewery - Breweries Near Me - North Charleston, South Carolina

I've always enjoyed their beers, but I didn't realize how close Freehouse was to me. I always see them posting about food trucks and finally decided to head over because I really wanted to try Smash City Burgers (see other reviews... it's amazing). The place is cool and rustic inside but the outside is amazing. They have a big field with picnic tables and seating areas where you can overlook the river. It's a great area for dogs or kids to play or just enjoy the beautiful weather. It's big too so you can really spice apart to relax. This is absolutely not your standard brewery atmosphere and I love it. read more

We love this brewery. Amazing view, great beer, awesome owner. Friendly staff. Do NOT sleep on the wood fired wings. These are what dreams are made of. Pizza is also wood fired and organic! read more

If you feel like you're in the middle of no where, you've made it! The signage is not good, but the gps takes you right to the brewery. Gorgeous view of the marsh. Arrived around 430, right before the crowd. It was definitely around 90 or more degrees outside, but there was a nice breeze that helped. Inside was much hotter, but tons of space inside. I tried all the seasonal sour and fruity beers. Sooo good! I've had their brown ale before and it was delicious! Chef Marcus from Middleton Made cooked pork and fried perch, with red rice and green beans. I feel all Charelstontonians ought to carry bug spray in your car, so get yours out or borrow some of theirs. Yes it's a marsh, there are mosquitoes! Again if you're lucky the breeze will help keep them away. Plenty of parking, servers where friendly, no food at this place, except food trucks. They need to have some corn hole games or horseshoes etc. didn't see anything there. There was music playing, good speakers, all kinds of genres mostly r&b and pop. I can't wait to come back! read more

Took the family on a Friday Night when the 'Dough Boyz' Pizza Food truck was there. When driving in, we got the feeling like we were not in the right place at least 3 times; only to realize the oasis type location they have with a view of the river and bridge. Great for a picnic and sitting outside. All the beer is organic and delicious. The indoor seating space is very industrial, some drywall taken off the walls, some not. However, it seems tastefully done to make you feel like you're in an old cabin. There are board games to play and there were other kids and dogs. The space is good for watching the children play while you enjoy drinks and food. We will surely come back as this is a great location, views, drinks and (luckily) the closest to our house (ever since another one moved to West Ashley...) read more

Very cool spot tucked away in a laneway so take it slow down Dorchester. But it's worth it! Cool set up indoors and out with a great selection of beers and an excellent menu (so no need to worry if there is a food truck or not). Smash burger was terrific. read more

First of all, the staff is great , Maureen who is in charge of pouring the delicious organic brew is amazing and super friendly to all , humans and furry friends too. She is wonderful in helping select your fresh beer. The pizza is the best in Charleston hands down, I have been to all the places in town . There pizza maestro is Jonathan who is making some amazingly tasty pizza . The crust via incredible and his magical combination of ingredients makes the pizza fly thru the air with intense aromas coming out of his wood fire oven. What ever pizza you order it will be first class in all catagories . Mouthwatering and delicious. I can't rave enough about how delicious it is. You can't have a bad experience with Maureen and Jonathan . Great environment and they have a pool table and other game consoles too. I highly rec this place. Also amazing views of Charleston and surrounding areas. This place is amazing in the spring and summer too. Please stop by for great beer and pizza . You won't be disappointed. Tell them Jose sent you! read more

Freehouse has a great big open area with some outdoor games and lovely views. They don't serve food, but they had a food truck on site, the Dizzy Lamb, which was delicious! Someone was playing music outside but you couldn't hear them due to the loud generator from the food truck. The beers were decent. My favorite drink ended up being the Agave Rose Seltzer. This would be a great place to hang out with a group. read more

Was looking for a local-feel brewery with outdoor seating. This place has a great vibe, a nice view and most importantly the beer is good too! Currently sipping on a brown ale, which is smooth and well balanced. I also like the fact that they source organic ingredients. The service is friendly and quick. They do not have food during the week, but offer pizza on the weekend. Overall, a nice spot for beer, tucked away in an industrial park. read more

What I loved most about Freehouse Brewery was the view, sit outside and soak in the tall trees and marshy views. They were also offering boiled peanuts during our visit, which was a hospitable touch. Aside from the view, the actual location is a little off the beaten path, cross the railroad tracks (follow the sign) and drive around the backside of the industrial looking buildings, to the right. The actual brewery is not much to look at either. A small bar area greets you immediately to the left upon entering the warehouse. A handful of bar seating, but plenty of additional tables inside, and lots of outside (covered and uncovered) seats. You won't find any "bar" activities or games here. What I found really odd about this brewery: they charge for a sample, which gives off the feel that they're really trying to cut corners and pinch pennies. "Tasters" (tiny samples) are anywhere from $2-$3 and you'll pay $5-$7 for a glass. I tasted the Double Door IPA and went with a glass of the Green Door Organic IPA. Both were solid, but the Green Door was something I would easily drink again. An awesome, well rounded IPA. Overall, the brewery has work to do to make the space more inviting. But, they have a great scenic view and offer a solid product. I think they're moving in the right direction. read more

Sort of thought I was taking my life in my hands driving here. It's hidden in a mostly-industrial neighborhood and doesn't have great signage. When I pulled up, I noticed a few cars parked on the far side of this building and so I followed suit. Then I had to look around for a sign for the door and, not finding one, decided to check over near the porch - bingo! Inside was equally unassuming. There's a small bar and a bunch of picnic tables inside. They had a few games going with people fresh off of their office jobs, so there was a friendly level of noise going on without bothering our conversations. The beer itself was impressive. I'm a sour fan and they had 3 delightfully tarty beers available, 2 of which I tried (I had tried the 3rd a few days before elsewhere). I'm interested to see how they evolve as they grow. read more

Great beers and great atmosphere. The woman behind the counter was super knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations.

The beer was average tasting and dogs aren't allowed inside. But the outdoor space is really cool and I think they have live music some days. read more

This was stop number 3 for the day and there is not much to it. It's off the beaten path in North Chuck and does have a view of the water. There was a hotdog vendor out front and a very small bar and probably 6 picnic bench tables inside. We had told a couple at stop number 2 that we were heading here so they followed. Fun talking to them as hey just moved here two months ago from Baltimore. Brett was getting flights at each stop and I was just getting a sour beer if they had one. The beer here I got was called the pink squirt. I don't remember it very well so I definitely didn't love it!! This place seems totally chill and would probably be more happening on a night that they have live music. read more

What a cool spot for having some drinks outside! The view from this brewery was truly unique as you could see down the river to the Ravenal Bridge! They also had a few seating areas around a fire for cooler evenings! They had flights available with a large selection of different types of beers to choose from! Lastly, all of their beers are made with organic ingredients!! I highly suggest stopping by for some beers outside! read more

Stopped in for the first time last night to celebrate a friends birthday. It was a little sketchy to find the actual entrance but they have a great setup once you get there. Lots of outdoor seating which is shaded in the afternoon/evening with a view of the water. Inside has a lot of seating with a rustic vibe and a small bar. We were the only ones there on a Tuesday at 6 so it was great for us but Im surprised no one else was there. I heard they have food trucks some days. Beers were good. read more

Love this venue! Be careful of the no-seeums however, as they are located on a bluff overlooking the Ashley River. Plenty of outdoor seating and parking on the property. Fair amount of indoor seating as well, but you should really go out for the view and breeze. Brews are very good and staff are friendly. The location is a little out of the way for me, but it's definitely worth it once you're there. If you live or work up this way, it's perfect, and I encourage you to frequent this location. Laid back lowcountry living at its finest. And some cool beers too. Enjoy! read more
