The food used to be good when they first opened. Been downhill since. I don't know how you can make a dry smash burger but they did it perfectly. BBQ pork sandwich is just all sauce. I can tell there was no flavor in the mush itself. We got sauce on the side for the wings to share with the kid and those are definitely not seasoned. Again the sauce was the only flavoring. The tots were good and the salad was good. But I didn't come for tots and salad. read more

Had the chicken wings was a nice consistency of molasses and wing sauce mixture was delicious great selection of craft, beers and sangria you won't be disappointed Emily the bar tender did a quality job was very attentive an gave great service read more

The atmosphere is the greatest thing about this place! Right next to the water, everything around it to include pizza, ice cream, beach bars, you name it. They have a decent selection of beers and the one I found most delicious was the sweet potato one that went by "I yam what I yam" I believe. The standard "Beach Bier" isn't a bad starter. The food is where I get disappointed. My wife and I have eaten here twice and tried a few different dishes and really haven't been impressed. It's bland and honestly tasted microwaved. If you come maybe just do a flight of their different beers and stop there. There are some indoor games available like corn hole, pinball, classic systems at booths (PS1), as well as a basketball game in the back. read more

I love this place, even if it is in a strip mall. The beers here are consistently original and excellent. We each got a flight, which turns out to be six (!) beers, too many to name, but I love that the Rotating Taps are always new and creative. Some fun oddballs tonight included the Gorilla Marketing - an absurd mix of banana, marshmallow, and peanut butter in an imperial milk stout, that really gives you all those flavors, finishing with marshmallow. And the Mangolada - a coconut mango pineapple wheat beer. The I Am What I Yam is their consistent star beer on the board and absolutely fantastic. Kind of a pumpkin pie beer in a way. The other reviews are right the Matt's Craft Beer Cheese Dip is a winner. Comes with toasted pretzel bun slices. The Falafel Sandwich is such a confusing dish. The falafel is massive and delicious. The hummus too. But what happened to the bread? It was weirdly stale? On the other hand the pretzel buns in the cheese dip were toasty and delicious. So, worth ordering the falafel but ask them to use the pretzel bun. read more

We've been served by Chris at the bar MANY times. She is the BEST! She's attentive, outgoing and friendly. We read the review from April 5th and thought - that's not the Chris we know. read more

This place needs a lot of help from training to recipes. First they don't allow substitutions, so if you ask them to make it exactly the same as the menu except to keep the raw onion off the dish they can't do it due to their ordering system. The bread they serve with the crab dip is so hard you can't bite through it. Don't ever order the remoulade, it's bland mayonnaise with coloring. The tater tots were the only thing worth eating and they came out cold. We left and went to another restaurant after wasting money here. read more

The food was terrible. I ordered a Smashburger and it came out cold. The nachos had absolutely no flavor and the rice and beans had taco seasoning on them for favoring and it was cold and tasted terrible. The shrimp tasted like they were over boiled and then seared quickly on the grill. No one addressed that we didn't eat anything. Just gave us our check. read more

Oh my gosh their beers are heavenly! You really can't go wrong with what you order, but some of my favorites were their yam imperial stout, marshmallow stout and a chocolate stout. By far some of my favorite beers I've ever had, we actually ended up here twice in one day because we loved it so much. Atmosphere - very cool decor and just good vibes all around. Service - very friendly staff Definitely check these guys out! read more

A great place to sit and chill a down home meal. We are cider lovers and they had some unique flavors we had to try and it didn't disappoint. The service was great and attentive. It is located on the second level there is an elevator but if there is a thunderstorm then it will be inoperable. I only mention this cause we had out lil fur babies with us in a pet stroller that we had to carry up the stairs. The food was great in huge portions and well worth the money. It's located in John's Pass so you can always walk around d before or after to check out the shops. We would come back here again if we pass through the area. read more

Great for vegetarians. They had different choices. Not just a veggie burger, and I really appreciated that! Great service. Loved the decor. Good beer. Will return! read more

Cool place! The beer was delicious, and you got 5 oz flights. We had 2 different appetizers and both were great. The service was attentive, but not intrusive. Definitely a great spot to relax and enjoy. read more

Terrible pork nachos, jerk salad was terrible I would not recommend this tourist trap at John's Pass. The shrimp boil or crab boil is best options. read more

One of my favorite places to visit; I'm a local. The only issues I've dealt with are a couple of super stressed bartenders and some food that I wasn't into due to flavoring; the burgers I've had, have a strange seasoning blend that other local restaurants have along with a similar ending in the looks and everything about the burgers being more hand formed fresh elsewhere. Just my thought. But the hummus is absolutely delicious with plenty on the plate to share or as a meal for one. LOVE their hummus!!! read more

Great Mead! Excellent atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend the Mercia burger. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Big, fun looking place. Very slow service. We chose to sit inside for lunch. All other places had an hour long wait and we were able to walk right in. I ordered the sangria and truffled Parmesan tater tots to start. The sangria was sweet and very tasty, so we're the tots!! We ordered our lunch the same time that I ordered the sangria. Grouper Tacos, Totchos and a salad. It took right under 40 minutes to receive our food. We were 1 of only 3 tables inside. Our server was the only one walking at a slow pace but it was almost painful watching her walk so slow and not pay any attention to the fact that we were waiting for so long. We were in the restaurant for 2 hours total, from the time we sat down until the time we finally got our ticket. The tacos were okay. Not a lot of grouper at all, more filling of veggies. The Rum Runner salad was pretty good! Totchos we're loaded with chorizo, cheese and sour cream- my 10 yr old liked them a lot. read more

I'm updating my review 2+ years later because we live in the area now and Mad Beach Brewery is still one of our favorite places. I have liked almost every beer I've had here. The basic lagers, ales and IPAs are on point. In the fall they have a great Oktoberfest option. My husband is partial to the Oscuro Brown Ale. I love their fruity IPA specials - they've mastered the balance between citrusy and hoppy. I don't know that I've ever had a meal I dislike, either. My go-to is the grouper gumbo. My husband is loyal to the boneless wings (I can vouch for them- the sauce is delicious). But I've enjoyed the po boy, burgers, fish sandwich, wedge salad, sliders, totchos, pirate shrimp and smuggler's pie over our many visits-- and that's not even including the specials which are always delicious. They seem to be doing a good job with social distancing in current circumstances. We've only gotten takeout (from anywhere) since the pandemic started, and they also do a good job with packaging orders, accuracy and ready times. John's Pass is touristy and parking can be a fun adventure, but the brewery is worth a visit if you're a tourist or a local. read more

Chris was awesome! Made our experience great! We love the beers and the service. Thanks for a good time!

Food was ok, nothing special. Our server was MIA for the majority of the time. Drinks were good though, great cider and sangria.

Terrible!!! The only reason I can see them getting a four star is due to the huge bar, pool tables and video games!! Only reason why we got stuck here was the place we planned to go was closed today!! If your coming here for the food I would suggest eating home! My grouper tacos were ice cold, plus they chopped up the grouper in tiny pieces all mixed up with mostly cold slaw. My Moms fish and tots were also cold and the fish had such a fishy taste and looked like some crap they took right out of freezer already breaded!! Just awful! read more

Very understaffed so maybe that was the issue. The burgers were terrible and definitely frozen and not fresh!! Very poor overall!!

Atmosphere was awesome! Food was just ok. They have video games at each table and in a communal area. My kids liked it although they had 2 options for kids menu which were hamburger and grilled cheese. read more

Great food and service! The menu had so many yummy options between food and drinks! I ordered the Tots Poutine! Incredible! They are tots served with a pork and beef gravy, Wisconsin white cheddar cheese curds, and fried sage. read more

For Father's Day, we made the 35 minute trip to Madeira Beach. First nit; Parking. This brewpub is in the touristy John's pass village. I paid $10 to park in a city lot across the street. The interior is decked out in small lights across the ceiling. A full-size bus is the front of the kitchen. Now for the food. Daughter's meal consisted of undercooked rice, beans and some really bad pico. She didn't like it. Wife had shrimp appetizer and reports, it was fine. Son had jerk chicken sandwich and he appeared to like it. I had Grouper tacos. Meh... I've had better. Our server was great. Friendly, efficient, courteous... no problems there. Bottom line; I believe the best deals and food is usually away from the tourist areas. I'll stick with that next time. read more

Chris is the best ever!!! She's awesome!! Beers here are excellent!!! Food is great too!! The atmosphere here is good! Chris is the best bartender!! read more

The beer choices were great; the Grouper Tacos were amazing - overall it was a great experience and perfect location for dinner and shopping. read more

Been to hundreds of differnt breweries tried the strawberry cider and one other. Have to say that is by far the absolute worst cider I've had, nasty aftertaste and just plain terrible. Plenty of good breweries around, i suggest going to keel and Curley all the way out in plant city! It's worth the drive! This place sucks read more

Nestled in John's Pass Village in Madeira Beach is a fun brewery that also serves up some unique and delicious food! Always a ton of beer and cider choices on tap and come on... They have a bus inside that they use as their pickup station for the food, how fun is that with all the cool artwork to look at and games to play? They had these delicious ranch deviled eggs on their menu as an app when we were there previously and I was sooooo disappointed when I recently went again that they weren't an option. I was craving them! And when you are done grabbing some food and having a beer, you can go support all the local businesses at John's Pass too! read more

Went here due to Yelps 4 Star 500+ reviews. This was a total disappointment. Food is NOT good. Save your money. FOOD: I would NOT recommend this place. For the brewery, our food did NOT taste fresh at all except the cheese curds (which was presented in a basket but portion was not worth the price, literally looked like someone ate 1/2 the basket of curds. Fish & Tots - It had the texture of McDonalds Fish Fillet (boxed bartered old fish) and that's being nice! Cob Salad - I kid you not, the lettuce was a prepackaged ready made salad but it was old where there was NO life in the leaves, to make it worse, there was more dried over cooked chicken then lettuce. I literally took 4 bites & could NOT stomach the old wilted leaves. Jerk Chicken wBlack Beans & Rice: Chicken tasted old, the rice and beans was edible. PARKING: Easy to park SERVICE: Server was ok read more

This was my family's first time here. Great atmosphere the menu looked good. And then " bam" bad luck started. We patiently waited 20mins for a waiter. Then finally a little after an hr we got our apps. Then after another 30 we finally got our food. I was gonna leave a bad review. But Tyson the manager came over and explained due to a storm that happened in the am a computer problem stopped our food order from going to the cooks. And that they have been having problems all day. He was nice, courteous owned the problem and even compt our meal!!!!!. Now for the food. It was great! My grouper was fresh. And the food that my family ordered looked great. My son got the burger of the month which was basically a pizza on an Italian role with a burger inside!!! We will definitely be back. read more

The atmosphere is really nice and cool. Corn hole, PlayStation in every booth, even a children's area. The orange flavored beer was tasty. The waitress and staff were all very nice but the food was pricy and wasn't nothing too special. The loaded tachos (tater tots) were ok but the pulled pork sandwich wasn't very good. I'm sure there are other things on the menu that would be better. read more

We started visiting Mad Beach Craft Brewing a little over a month ago and have been back every week since! we bring friends and they bring friends! hands down best beer choices in Pinellas County! The food is spectacular, we always get the Pulled Pork Nachos, and Totchos - always excellent! we have tried several other things...including the Jelly Donut Burger...and yes it is amazing! Will continue to back, and bring friends! something for everyone and super kid friendly!!!! read more

Great food, great service and a fun place to eat. Pizzas are only surpassed by the rest of the menu.

Well was hoping for more. Beer was ok large variety tried a couple settled on one, only had one and I'm a big beer drinker.as for the food ordered the "totchos" based on bar tender and other people recommendations. I posted 2 pics one what I got the other the pic from the menu, you judge and tell me? What I Tasted was cheese sauce w some beer blended (big deal) scallions we're not spread over entire plate they were lumpted in one area and the other topping were lumped as well, definitely not the pic sloppy management allowing that to go out the window. Was not busy they can't use that excuse lol. As for the chili topping Tasted like mixed beef and chorizo nothing special. I would pass on eating here and grab a beer and move on Management commented and sounds like excuses...working long hours ect ect. You know it's spring break and you should be over staffed to accommodate the larger amount of patrons...also he's LIEING the restaurant was not that busy it still boils down to poor management, that meal should have never left the kitchen NO excuses...owners should plan better I stand on poor management or is it cheap management? read more

Took a trip from Miami to the Tampa area just to brewery hop, Mad Beach was our first stop...and although we've been here before this visit was beyond our expectations! You know that song.... "God is great, beer is good" and Steve is awesome. Wait, is that how it goes? Well, anyways the beer wasn't just good; it was great! Steve the bartender was the shit and the food was good too. Juice bomb IPA (I think) was sooo good and I also enjoyed the key lime gose! Thanks again Steve, From two Woodbridge peeps! ;) read more

We do a family reunion in this area once a year, and my husband and I go here AT LEAST once a trip. The food has absolutely never disappointed us- it's not fancy, but it's solid and they have some creative combinations. This year we had the burger of the month, which was a burger on mozzarella sticks on garlic bread. Drinks were, as usual, yummy. The atmosphere is great for both families and a more party oriented crowd. We absolutely WILL be back. read more

4.5 stars. Been here multiple times and the food has always been amazing. Just real tasty, price is great - the only issue is the parking. Jalapeno mac and cheese and jelly doughnut burger - Ridiculous menu items with a lot of flavors Also, fun for kids as it has games, cornhole, and superintendos in the back.
