Still my favorite brewery. And probably my favorite spot in CLE to stop in for a beer and the best pizza. The service is always so quick, even during games. The area is wide open, even when it's crowded there is plenty of space to move around. read more

Masthead Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Masthead was another stop on our Cleveland Brewery passport tour. We love the location. It is easy to get to if we are going to a baseball game or a show at Playhouse Square. The seating is more family style. You order at the counter and are given a buzzer to go get your pizza. Given the size of the dining area this seems like an efficient way to service lots of people. We order beer and pizza on this visit. The beer is always refreshing. The pizza this time was mostly crust. The toppings were very sparse. It could have been that they were really busy. The pizzas in the past have been very good. read more

We loved how open and inviting it is! The Christmas decorations were very festive! Loved the ornaments hanging and the garland around the poles, it really took the space to the next level. Our server/ host Luke 20/10 he was the best, catered to our party needs, brought food over, and asked if we were good all night long! The food was also very good! The everything pretzels, the chicken quesadilla, and plant of the pizzas were amazing. We loved that they offered a vegan option! read more

Gonna make my time here brief, but Masthead is 100% where it's at. This place seems to be a top choice for us when our group is in the city for our annual Browns Game outing. Absolutely great vibes, always a packed house and always good eats. Friendly service and a wide menu give everything a downtown joint needs. Masthead really knocks it out the park for me. The neo-style pizza is unique and well crafted, and is a savory, crispy delight to the taste buds. Though I can't quite recall which beverage I tried, our group always has good opinions of the beer. I can't wait for my next visit. read more

The Old Fashioned (from the tap) was better than I expected and the Hazy IPA beer was really good. They had a pizza oven and wow, that pizza was delicious- definitely go for that. We substituted mozzarella for the provolone for the PSM - yum. The vibe is super casual with tons of TV screens for watching the game. Overall, one of our favorite breweries in Cleveland that we visited! Totally recommend! read more

This place was a friend favorite, especially before a Cavs or Guardians game. It's a fun place to be before Cleveland sports. Catch other fans and maybe even game attendees can be found rooting from their picnic table style seating as well. As a first timer, the ordering process was a little tough to decipher off the bat but luckily, I was with a pro. Menus before the bar, and walk up to order drinks. You can order food at once or after you find a seat by heading back up to the bar. You'll get a buzzer and pick up will be closer to the kitchen (identified by the brick oven pizza). Now let's get into it: they have a great selection of beers with awesome menu descriptions and a wide variety. My favorite is that they do a 4-beer house flight giving you a 4 oz taste of a few. Flights are my go-to, so they suckered me with that one. While their bartenders can be a little rough, the beer and limited interaction makes up for it. Now food: Their Neapolitan style pizza is GOOD, red or white. I haven't had a flavor yet that disappoints, and the rotating topping options/flavors makes it great to come back. On the smaller side, 12 inches, you'll want to order a few for a party of 4 or more. Their everything (as in bagel seasoning) pretzel is soft, fresh, and comes with a cheese and two mustard options as a "shareable" the whole gluten eating family will enjoy. When the dessert sounds up your alley, give it a shot, chances are you won't be let down either. The place is casual and a great spot for when the garage doors can be opened and the warm breeze let in. It can get noisy and definitely crowded so get there and claim your stake on one of the elongated picnic tables quick. Fun, sporty vibes alongside your occasional baby shower. Looking forward to my 4th visit for new flavor brews and pies. read more

Love the vibe in the large dining area with a long bar and good music. Bring everyone you know. That's how big this venue is! Lots of beer choices. Try a flight. Good wood-fired pizzas. Good salads. Big Belgium pretzels. Check out the menu. Picnic table style seating. Garage doors open in nice weather, making this an open air neat place. Is walking distance from all the sports areas downtown. Handicapped accessible. Check this out on Superior at 13th. read more

I visited Masthead Brewing Co. and everything from the food to the atmosphere exceeded expectations! We tried the Everything Pretzel, and it was huge--crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and cooked to perfection. It came with three house-made sauces: pimento cheese, Bertman stadium mustard, and an IPA honey mustard. All were good, but the standout for me was the hot mustard (I think it may have been the stadium one)--so flavorful with just the right kick! We also shared the Pistachio Pesto Pizza, and it was fantastic. It had basil pesto, pistachio nuts, cherry tomatoes, marinated chicken, fresh mozzarella, and grated parmesan--the flavors blended beautifully, (I ordered mine without chicken, so vegetarian-friendly!). The crust was perfect and the ingredients felt fresh and thoughtfully paired. I already have a list of other menu items I want to try when I'm back in the area! For drinks, we ordered: * Blood Orange Cosmopolitan - smooth and refreshing, with vodka, blood orange liqueur, lime, and a splash of cranberry. A really nice balance of citrus and tartness. * Old Fashioned (on draft) - made with Buffalo Trace Bourbon, Angostura bitters, and simple syrup. Classic and well executed. The space itself is big, bright, and welcoming--lots of communal-style seating with a casual vibe. You order at the counter, get a buzzer, and pick up your food when it's ready. Despite the laid-back setup, it was very clean and well-maintained. Tons of large TVs playing different games throughout the space, so no matter where you sit, you'll catch the action. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and there's an impressive selection of beer, cocktails, and spirits. Their brewery is onsite but sectioned off from the dining area--it adds to the cool vibe of being in a place that takes its craft seriously. All in all, a great experience from start to finish. I'll absolutely be returning when I'm back in town! read more

Good time @ Masthead Brewing tonight. The Bacon Jam Brunch pizza was pretty freakin' good. It was unfortunate that the Pickle Pizza is no longer on the menu. It was unique and my wife's favorite. Bring it back Squirrel! read more

Masthead is always a treat. We have visited this location frequently and each time we leave feeling satisfied from the good food and good beer. Their pizza is incredible and don't forget to try their giant pretzel. It is literally huge! Service is always really quick and you get beer and food pretty quickly. Masthead can be on the louder side when they are busy, but you can sit outside on their patio or visit during a time that isn't as busy and it is just lovely! read more

Wow. Great beers. Great place that also serves brick oven pizza. But not by the slice you have to buy whole pie. We got a flight of four different beers and wow one of the beers was just amazing. Weller!!. It was an imperial stout. I have never had a beer so good as this one. We also had the masked head IPA and it was delicious. I didn't really like their coffee Porter it was kind of weak and lacking flavor. Great little brewery right down in the downtown area. Parking is on the street. But they do have also outside seating.. My sister ordered a specialty drink it was made with vodka and some kind of fruit juice. She said she liked it but I thought it lacked flavor. A great stop for a Tuesday night in May 2024. read more

This is a great place for pizza and a beer. The staff are super friendly, the pizza is amazing, and the self serve aspect makes it a very relaxed, chill experience.

This place is huge and runs like clock work. Come in, find a table, and look at the menu that is available for you to grab as you enter. When you figure out what you want, you go up to the bar where there are two places to enter in lines to order. Yes, there is no please get to me next chaos when you are not sitting at the bar. When your turn is up, place your order for food and drink. For the food, they give you a pager which will ring when your order is available at the food pickup area next to the pizza oven. For your drinks, including flights of beer, just shuffle over and wait a moment for the super quick bar service to prepare whatever you ordered. You can keep a tab open or close it out right then and there. As for the beer. There are a lot of surprisingly great choices here. On two visits I managed to sample most of the menu running through four or five flights in total. Parking is on the street which isn't too bad around the corner and there is a garage nearby too if you have trouble finding a space. read more

This place was great, super chill atmosphere that was down to earth and unassuming. I loved the pizza, pretzel, and beer we got, especially the hazy beer. The staff, following along with the atmosphere were relaxed and joyful (I'd be too working in a brewery), yet they were efficient and quick to respond. In short, I'll be back. read more

Worked right next door and never been here, glad I came! Ordering is so easy. Grab a menu, pick ur delight and order at the bar. They buzz you in 10-15, no more, u grab ur eats and they bus your table. Process...It works! Pizza was Neapolitan style so fluffy but airy, crusty crust and thin pizza bed! Perfect for me! My Hawaiian comes on red sauce, but I switched to white, no worries! The while "sauce" is more just EVOO and garlic, but I loved it. The pineapple salsa could have been heavier (meaning more) but it was yum! The ham was plentiful and the sweet, salty and spicy ( I added need pepper flakes) were spot on! My one suggestion is to wipe that chalky, BITTER flour off the pizza bottom before serving. If not wiped off, it almost tries to ruin the pizza favors. read more

Great service, good beers at a great price. They hooked it up with a free beer when I got the wrong one which was nice of them and big plus in my book. Mostly was IPAs on their menu but their Belgian ales were good and all beers were around $6. Pretty awesome if you ask me! read more

Come to Cleavland to visit some friends, and they said we had o come here. when you walk in, you take a menu and find a seat. Then, choose your items from a limited menu and order at the bar. I went with the Beet salad and asked them to switch out the goat cheese for mozzarella or provolone cheese. They decided to put shaved Parmigian cheese instead. Wife and friends had pineapple Hawaiian pizza, a Buffalo chicken pizza, a mushroom with truffle oil, and a pepperoni and sausage pie. pizza was ok most, not my style of pizza. Nice busy brewery with lots of choices. unfortunately, I do not drink beer. No Table service, so go to the counter to get your order placed. And very warehouse like inside. read more

Lot a big pretzel. Add on everything season, even better! Place is huge for large groups and I feel that you can always find a spot where despite being a popular place. Personally I would stick with the classic flavored pizza flavors here. The other flavors are fun but either are a little odd because they do their own take or just doesn't beat a simple pepperoni or cheese read more

I visited 3 breweries while visiting town and Masthead was my favorite. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was a good variety of beers, although the focus on IPAs. My favorites were the Apricot Sour, Canadian Lager and the Coffee Stout. While I didn't eat here, I saw others food and it looked very good. The folks next to me had the white pie pizza and they ranted about how good it was. read more

Headed here for the first time and it has great ambiance. The doors were open with indoor and outdoor seating. You order food and then pick it up when your buzzer goes off. Pizza was great. Big pretzel was meh. read more

YES! Excellent choice for dinner. Was in town recently and I took my team of 6 out to dinner at Masthead last Wednesday evening. Huge location and was pretty busy when we arrived about 6p but no wait at all and they cooked our pizzas amazingly fast. Beer was ice cold and pizzas were piping hot. The pizza was great. We ordered 4 different pies (6 total) and shared. They were all great with perfectly cooked crust, the right amount of sauce, tons of cheese, and al the toppings were spot on. Definitely recommended! read more

Well done! If you are an IPA fan, don't walk - RUN! 8 solid IPAs on tap - the 8.3% duality was as good of a beer as I've had any here (citra and sumo) I also had a pizza (meatball) which wasn't the best I've ever had, but certainly better than some reviews I've read. Thin crust Neapolitan was delicious. Highly recommend to craft beer people read more

Super fun space and atmosphere! We stopped in on their 7th anniversary party so lots of people but were able to get a couple beers, a pizza and pretzel, eat and be out in 45. Service was great and enjoyed the vibe. Italian beef pizza was awesome and the dough was so fresh. We sat by where they make the pizza and I can say, I'd trust anything they made. Pretzel was a miss for us dropping a star. Caraway seeds on an everything bagel? NOOOO. However easy to pick off. But the pimento cheese wasn't great and really cold being safe and stored in the fridge. Honey mustard was sharp and brown mustard was the best In my mind. Got the lager and the jalapeño ipa and both were solid. Great space for big groups but first come first serve. No baby changing station that I saw but kid friendly. We will be back! read more

Masthead is the real deal. Huge interior with lots of bench style seating that gives off beer garden vibes. Good selection of beers as well as spirits. Neapolitan style, oven-fired pizza. Need I say more? I sampled the Jalapeno IPA and boy was it intriguing! Interesting heat to it, and a flavor I had never experienced in a beer before. I would've gotten it had I not already been thinking about the acid reflux the pizza was going to give me. That said, I opted for the traditionally simplistic "IPA". This was about as classic as an IPA could be and I enjoyed it. We debated over which pizza to order, including asking multiple servers before ultimately deciding on the 'Basil Pesto' pizza. Neapolitan style is one of my favorites, so I think I started off a little biased but it was pretty good. The only downside was the amount of oil on top (had to wipe it off before eating or it would've dripped all over the place). It also wasn't cut all the way through and the dull butter knife silverware didn't do a whole lot to finish the job so after copious hacking and pulling at the pizza, we finally got it into edible sized slices. That said, the crust had a nice texture and it had good flavor. I added a side of ranch which made it even better. All in all, the atmosphere makes it a great brewery to visit with friends. Add in the homemade, wood fired pizza and Masthead is definitely worth checking out. read more

Masthead has great seating options and more than one "line" to order from. We sat outside and enjoyed the evening with pizza (wood fired), beer, and a cocktail (I suggest the limoncello spritz!). We tried 3 pizzas and the hummus and we had 0 leftovers to take with us. Fun was had by all! read more

I don't understand the hype. This is mediocre pizza. 1st, you go up to one counter to order your food, which then asks for a tip. So I tipped. This was because I assumed when I sat down, they would serve me. Nope. You still have to wait for your thing to buzz, and then go get all your own food and drinks, and condiments. So explain what I am tipping for if I get everything and then bus my own table after? That's no different than fast food. 2nd: Although this is a brick oven fire pizza, they are super stingy on the olive oil on the crust. Which you need with this type of crust, or it becomes gummy and too chewy. And this was! I ordered the "white" pizza with Prosciutto, which had almost zero base to it. it had the bare minimum of prosciutto, and some big slices of chives. No garlic, nothing else in the way of seasoning either. There was some random Parmesan, but it seamed like the cheap stuff, not actual real Parm. The Pizza had zero flavor. I also ordered the Dates stuffed with goat cheese appetizer. I've had variations of this done at other restaurants, and it is always served warm and soft, which enhances the flavors and brings them together. However, these were served rock hard and cold. So clearly pre-made in advance. I've never seen this before, and it completely detracted from the taste and experience. This would be 100% better if warmed up, then the honey drizzled on just before serving. This was a big disappointment. Considering I walked 1/2 hour in cold/windy weather to get here because of good reviews, I was seriously left wondering why. Maybe this is what OH calls good pizza, but don't get catfished. It's just a basic pizza dough surrounded with a lot of instagram illusion. read more

One of the top 3 Breweries in CLE, if not the best. The Pizza is fantastic as are the people working there.

My second or third time visiting this establishment. Both times prior, not much to complain about, and this time is also the same. I went with some friends before going to a NBA game on Thursday night. Crowd was medial as it was a Thursday. I ordered the Beer Special called Slopes to Surf Ale for $5. Delicious flavor, light but also crisp in taste. A nice tropical blend. I had a few of these. I also ordered 2 pizzas. A chicken, bacon ranch and a plain pepperoni. The menu is very small only offering about 10 or so pizzas and a few others shareable items. They have the pizza oven cranked up so the pizza comes back to you about 5-8 minutes later which is great. They are thin flatbread type pizzas for $14. Great price range, great flavor. The size could be a tad bigger as 1 pizza probably just feeds 1 person but if you order a couple you can swap. Atmosphere is great. Wife open, big, country style seating. About 10 plus beers on tap. Very knowledgable staff and friendly bartenders. My overall tab with 2 beers and a pizza was $25 which is a pretty solid price for a meal I considered "dinner". They also have some merch on sale and other items that you could purchase. I did forget to buy my sticker so I might have to do that next time around. 3 for 3 at Masthead for quality and service. I'll be back. read more
