Service was great. Very nice ambiance. We look forward to going back soon. When we have time.

Enjoyed a wonderful 4th of July evening at Trailside Brewing. Big open area with inside or outside seating. We set inside, large fans and big open doors made for a beautiful breeze that blew through. Keeping you cool and comfortable Music 5-8pm from a guitar player. Large selection of beers on tap all cold and delicious, on the beer side service was friendly and quick. We ordered food from their kitchen, my husband had a mixed leafy green salad-(lots of arugula) he added a piece of Salmon on top. Salad was first served with zero dressing (yuk) my husband took it back had salad dressing added he said it was good. I had the wings (teriyaki), they were hot, crispy and delicious. I will definitely.order them again. On the bar side - Trailside bartender was "unfriendly" several in our party ordered sodas and mixed drinks, the woman bartender was indifferent with an attitude, like it was a bother to take a drink order. I returned for a refill of soda and was told nastily "$3 we don't do refills" WOW! Really??? No need to be nasty I didn't know and last time I was there the bartender happily refilled my soda-(which was mostly ice) Obviously this lady dislikes her job! No matter how fun or nice a place is or how good the food, if service is lacking or server gives a negative attitude people won't return. I would give 5 stars to Trailside Brewing if service would have been friendly and smiled. read more

4.5 First timers ... the ambiance by a trailhead is great. The service is very friendly and the food good. We had the double burger special with a free beer. Lots of space for seating. A very nice visit indeed. read more

The food was pretty good for a brewery. I had the double smash burger. Good amount of seasoning for flavour. The service is why this is only 3 stars the queues to get food were terrible. This was during state tournaments for baseball. The ambiance was loud and kids were running around which was dangerous. Someone had to come on the speaker saying no kids running. read more

Best black bean veggie burger my boyfriend and I ever had, really tasty. I also really loved the sweet potato fries. Along with a summerfest pilsner beer, superb! We enjoyed the atmosphere with live music and fire pits if you sit outdoors on a nice day. It is a very small menu, but maybe if it becomes popular, they will enlarge? read more

We love this place. Finally made here for lunch, and 2 of our 3 meals were ruined because they only fry in Tallow even though the sweet potato fries say vegan and vegetarian. I always plan ahead and this didn't work out. Trailside. Please do better. read more

We love Trailside! And yes... it's probably a little bad when the bartenders know your name, but that just means it's that good . Perfect for families, whether you're finishing a run or ride on the trail or catching up with friends. Always a great time! read more

Stopped by for a cold beer after hiking in the area and loved the place. The beers were great and there's lots of space to hang out. The day we were there they had multiple food trucks and live music playing outside. This is a must stop brewery in WNC. read more

What a great option along the recently finished Ecusta Trail! Trailside Brewing hits the mark for a local brewery. Solid drink options, plenty of space to socialize, and a killer food truck with amazing food! We've never had any issues with service and have always left with smiles on our faces. There are also small shops connected to the brewery that I highly recommend you stop by (if they're open) while you're there. read more

We recently started going to Trailside! It is pretty close to home and easy to get to with plenty of parking. There is so much seating indoors and outdoors, somewhere for everyone. There are rotating food trucks. Bathrooms are always clean. Staff is always friendly. Oh and the coffee and bar area is super cute and cozy with lots of options. read more

What a great spot!! I enjoyed the Blaze sour that's currently on tap after. 4.5 mile walk down the Ecusta trail. This is where it's at Hendersonville. Simple. Clean. Family and dog friendly. Beer tenders were super friendly and made great suggestions. I'll be back sooner rather than later. Cheers !! read more

My experience is based off the food. The menu online didn't match what was actually at the brewery and the options were very minimal. Also the kids chicken tenders are made with some sort of flavor that tastes like pickles, my kids didn't love it. Brewery is beautiful and the sour was nice! Big open space and chill vibe! read more

Great selections of beer, kind staff and wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces. We visit often and will continue to do so!

Open, spacious, lots of beer options and friendly service. What more could you ask for. Plus they have a coffee location attached. I was only visiting the area, but if I lived here I would be back often. read more

Trailside Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Hendersonville, North Carolina

My folks and I went during the opening of the Ecusta Trail, so it was crazy busy! However the line was pretty efficient and when I was told the taps were out on the 2 beers we wanted, the girl taking my order was knowledgeable about the beers to offer me something I enjoyed! They did have a lot of IPAS which I am not a fan of so, her direction was great:) Ample parking, pet friendly for those who must take their dogs everywhere. Cocktail prices are stoopid high for anyone that doesn't want beer. I will definitely go back to this joint though! Very clean restrooms, and a great outdoor space. read more

Was visiting from out of state. Very much enjoyed the Brewery. Great atmosphere, food, live music and beer! Will be sure to make it back in future. read more

Today, ordered the smash burger. Call it a salt burger. Also ordered the steak salad - the steak was inedible. Truly quite disappointing, particularly when the Ecusta Cafe serves tasty food. read more

Hot sweaty nightmare you can't wait to escape. No games, activities, or TV's. Kids running wild treating tables like a jungle gym. Prices are high, especially at the cocktail bar. Young kids working that have no clue what they are doing. The owner was arrogant and rude when we asked about the credit card fee. Super old building that is filthy with dirty bathrooms, so no ambiance to speak of. read more

Went there for just a beer and enjoyed that as well as the atmosphere. Loved the outside area in back with corn hole.

Our first visit, we meet up with friends to play cards. The place was so spacious, had really good beer and the food truck was great. Staff were so friendly. Will return and certainly recommend. read more

This little brewery has some of the best ambiance in town! Their live music is always good and the beer is top notch! We have been here multiple times and it never fails to make us feel at home. They are expanding and adding a coffee shop and a cafe and market which will make it even more attractive as a destination brewery. Can't wait to see it once it's all finished. I highly recommend this brewery! read more

This new brewery is a ideal spot to sit and have a brew. Typical brewer counter service but staff is well-informed and helpful! Will definitely be here again! read more

Nice clean place. New brewery. Looking forward to going back. They had a food truck on site with excellent pulled pork and chicken sliders. Good selection of beer. read more

This place is so cool! Wide variety of beers with nonalcoholic options as well! Plenty of seating with a neat outdoor area, too!

Very busy grand opening. A few home brews and a few guest taps. Several IPAs and sours. Great for summer consumption. We drink mainly porters and stouts. Will revisit as their menu changes. Great outdoor space and loads of free parking. Located right on the soon-to-be bike/hike trail. read more

Trailside has great beer. The venue (indoors and outdoors) is spacious and clean. They have food trucks. There is ample free parking. Service is friendly and efficient. Entertainment varies nightly . They have an Irish music session on Monday nights from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm that is quite entertaining with musicians singing and playing guitars, mandolins, banjos, fiddles, flutes, whistles, bodhrans, and pipes. Check it out! read more
