We visited Westlake Brewing Company in December and overall had a good experience, with one hiccup. The beer was solid and the space is a great place to hang out. We spent our time at the bar, and the bartender was friendly and attentive, which made it an easy place to settle in for a while. There was an issue with being charged twice, and we did not receive a call back initially. They did reach out through Yelp to help resolve it and provided the details needed to correct the charge. We would definitely go back to this brewery as we rally liked the beer the had on tap. read more

We loved Westlake Brewing Company! Such a fun place to hang out and great bartenders.

Cool brewery! Much needed after some BBQ. Big space inside and outside too. It wasn't at all busy when we came. They also sell food. We got a cheese pizza for our son, and 2 hazies for ourselves. Good hangout spot. They have books and games too. read more

We decided to check this place out because it was walking distance from our hotel, and they were dog friendly so we were able to bring our pup with us. We do appreciate that they allow dogs inside as well because it was a little too hot for him to hang outside. They were even kind enough to bring some water for him. My husband and I shared a beer flight, and a couple of items off their food menu. Beer Flight - Hoppy Lager: Crisp and refreshing lager made with noble hops. - Super Dry: Japanese Style ale with a light body and dry crisp finish. (My husband's personal favorite). - Instant Guavafication: A blonde ale, loaded up with all the guava. (Our least favorite, lacked in the guava department). - West Cide Cider: House made from a blend of Michigan apple and pear juice. (My personal favorite). Shareable Plates - Giant Pretzel: Soft and made perfectly, most brewery/pubs have pretty dry and hard pretzels, so we actually enjoyed this. The Beer Cheese on the other hand, we haven't found a place to make it right. The one here was too thick, and a little difficult to get the cheese to stay on the pretzel. - Sausage Pesto Flatbread: The star of the our evening. - Buffalo Baked Chicken Wings: Tender and just okay. Nothing to brag about. Honestly, it's a cool place to hang out and enjoy a few drinks and light snacks. read more

Drove in to Las Collinas TX to meet up with some friends for New Years's and on the way out we stopped at Westlake Brewing Co in the Deep Ellum district. So glad we did, we had their Rainy Day Hazy, it was so good. Nothing like day drinking in Dallas at high noon. The young lady behind the bar was great. We told her we were looking for some merch (tin tackers) and by the time we finished a couple of beers and some great pretzel bites. We waited a bit for the pretzels, they came out nice and warm with some beer cheese...yum! Back to the merch, the bar tender provided us with a list of local breweries with possible merch finds. A lot of road construction going on around here, stop in and give them a try. Business has to be suffering with all the work going on, find parking and have a beer and some snacks. read more

Westlake Brewing reminded me of a brewery you'd find in Portland, OR because of the garage door type openings, where you could sit and people watch. They offer food and the pretzel bites with beer cheese was off the chain. I had questions about the beers and the nice gentleman working let me try a couple so I could make a good decision. Fun stop in a fun part of Dallas. read more

Despite some pretty rough construction around the area, we were relieved to find a parking lot just across the road. While it's not the most convenient setup, there are other parking options available. We stopped in to check out this new brewery, and I'm so glad we did! The space is roomy, with board games to enjoy and a fun lineup of events, like yoga and trivia! The staff was incredibly friendly, and best of all, it's dog-friendly, so bring your pups! Buffalo Chicken Flatbread $11.09 Buffalo sauce, chicken, mozzarella cheese, & ranch drizzle. We loved the light, crispy flatbread and appreciated that the buffalo sauce wasn't overly vinegary. The only downside, it it wasn't sliced as much as we would have liked, which made it a bit tricky to eat and tear apart. Choice of Brew Super Dry $12.75 - A Japanese-style ale with a light body and a dry, crisp finish. (6.0% ABV · 10.0 IBU) This was one of the lightest yet crispiest beers I've had in a while, and I truly appreciated it, especially as the day started to warm up. The beer prices are slightly higher, but it balances out since the food is affordable. Plus, they encourage a BYO food policy, which adds a fun picnic-style vibe. Overall, a great spot worth checking out! read more

Had a really good visit here on a Saturday afternoon. The beers were great but the best part was talking to the staff. We had a non beer drinker with us and they provided really personal suggestions and have samples to make sure they had a good experience. We also helped taste test a new drink they were working on. A typical brewery experience with snacks and you can bring your own food but the team makes the difference. read more

WBC offers a unique blend of spacious ambiance and craft beer experience that's worth exploring. Upon entering, you're immediately struck by the open layout, adorned with clean light wood accents that create an inviting and trendy atmosphere. The ample seating, including a patio, makes for an ideal spot for larger groups. The highlight is undoubtedly the on-site brewery, visible through a glass wall behind the bar, adding an authentic touch to the experience. I love it when the weather is mild and cooler, as they raise the garage doors that open the seating area to the street. This provides a great place to sit and watch the people and traffic go by. I have visited Westlake many times over the last year or so and the service and staff have been nothing but friendly and knowledgeable about the beer menu, and quick to serve. The beer selection at Westlake is impressive, with an array of styles to choose from but it's not overwhelmingly large, which would make selecting difficult. When it comes to food, I think Westlake Brewing Company positions itself primarily as a drinking establishment. The menu consists of light entrees and appetizers, which complement the beer selection but may not satisfy those looking for a full dining experience. This focus on beer over food aligns with the brewery's core identity, making it clear that the brews are the main attraction here. The food selection is pretty straightforward, they have most of the bar favorites, chicken wings (baked), pretzels, chips & salsa, and a few others. Plus a tasty selection of flatbreads. Overall, Westlake Brewing Company presents an intriguing option for craft beer enthusiasts and those looking for a spacious, trendy spot to socialize. Its strengths lie in its atmosphere, making it suitable for groups and social gatherings. During lunch and early afternoon, it's a great place to grab a quick bite and get a little work done, it is surprisingly quiet during this time, so it might be an ideal choice for those seeking a more relaxed brewery experience. Westlake Brewing Company offers a solid craft beer experience in an inviting setting, making it worth a visit for those exploring the local brewery scene. read more

Love coming to this place and always make a point to visit each time I work in Dallas. This place is very welcoming with large open space with plenty of seating. Easy to locate in the heart of Deep Ellum and easy enough to walk from downtown Dallas on a nice weather day. Check their calendars as they normally have Monday and Wednesday run club meet ups which is a great way to meet some new people of all skill running levels (walkers on up to runners) and you get to explore some nice nearby neighborhoods with large porch houses in a safe area for jogging. Also Wednesday night is normally trivia night which is a great way to share your knowledge and enjoy some beverages. They have a small food menu with pretzels, pizzas, nachos and such and they welcome you bringing in in your own food from nearby establishments. The staff is always super friendly and chill. The beer is good for Dallas with a nice variety of styles. If they made more good hazies like Celestial or Turning Point, then they might earn the 5th star for me read more

Service was quick and staff was friendly. I arrived shortly after it opened for the day so there was plenty of places to sit at the bar and in the dining area. Beers were good. I had their Shave Ice and Rainout Hazy. Buffalo chicken flatbread as also good however being from Rochester, anyone will tell you that Buffalo sauce only pairs with Blue Cheese and not ranch. The owner and I had a good laugh about it. I would definitely return to try more of their beers read more

Went to Dallas for a visit and a friend took me here.....First, I love beer.....Who doesn't, right? This is a very open space, with plenty of craft beer options to choose from. Seating was ample, they even had a patio. I love the clean light wood accents......Very inviting and trendy... My friend, who is a DJ, thought this would be an excellent place to have a party, espcially with all the open space and the patio. Spacious enough to accomidate seated, standing or dancing patrons, while offering the patio for smokers or those who want a little air. The server was friendly and knowledgabe about all beers on the menu........Did I mention, the beer is brewed onsight? Sitting at the bar, you can view the brewery which is located behind the bar, seperated by a glass wall. The beer was excellent.....I believe I had the delkus.....Twice.... I wouldn't recommend coming here to eat with a big appetite but they do offer food, although it's more like light entrees and appetizers. The beer is by far the centerpiece. My friend and I were suprised how empty it was on a late friday evening, citing that a plce like this in chicago would be packed. Definitely looking forward to returning..... read more

Visiting from Houston and Mike and Mason were literally the best. Suggested really good beers. Great conversation and company!!

If you are looking for a relaxing afternoon with great atmosphere and even better staff this is the place to be! All of the beer that is served is made in house and you can see the silos from the counter. The staff makes wonderful recommendations not only for a beer of your choice but also of the surrounding deep ellum area. The pretzels are huge and made to order hot and fresh, I personally favored the flat breads - The Parker is to die for. Final touch to the gem in the city is there patio and motto on the wall "This house was built for you". Check out the only brewery in deep ellum you will not be disappointed . read more

Ariel is the most customer friendly woman we have met in a long time! She not only offered tasters since it was our first visit but also great food suggestions! WOW we loved all the beers and pretzel bites with mustard and beer cheese dip. Leg day & Dark Shade of Ellum. We also took home the Super Dry which is a great beer. Again thank-you so much Ariel for all your help! Sincerely, Cindy & Jack Sparkes read more

We stopped in for some beers after enjoying some good Texas BBQ. The place was pretty big inside with a ton of seating. Mostly long benches. A few of the beers sounded good so I went with a flight. I would saw they were all okay. Nothing really jumped out at me with some amazing flavors. I would say the vanilla wheat was my favorite but it didn't taste like vanilla at all, which was odd. The service was okay. The guy seemed to be just there. Like he wasn't thrilled at all to be working. With there being other brewery options around the area, I would probably go to a different one than return to to Westlake. read more

This place is dead. I came here on a Groupon and I actually stopped in 2 times but only stayed one of the times. Both times were dead which was actually why I didn't stay the first time I stopped in. The night that I actually went was a Friday. Service was ok. Beers were ok. It was cool that they had lots of board games but I would say that's it. We tried to order food but they stopped serving at 8pm since they close at 9pm.... I wouldn't come back. read more

Love the vibe here. The beers are all great but my favorite is the super dry. Love the rotation. Small bites are tasty if not super fancy but if you want something fancy just bring with you! The servers know about the beers and most nights you'll get to meet Art the owner! read more

This place had a fun vibe to it but was pretty deserted when I walked in at noon this Friday. Parking was a little rough and I had to drive around a bit before I found a free spot on Commerce Street three blocks down. Friendly service. I really enjoyed the Sugave blonde ale- it had really a good balance between maltiness, slight sweetness, and just a bit of hops. I tasted a sip of Instant Guavafication, but it was a little bit too tart for me. They offer 4oz pours for flights, so I might try a flight of some different beers next time. read more

It was ok. We can't really figure out why people love this place so much. Nothing super special. The beer was ok, no music, not busy. Maybe we came on an off day? read more

Westlake is still shiny amongst the Deep Ellum dirt. Friendly & helpful staff. Good seating and nice view of their brewing facility. We also ordered a soft pretzel. Wow it was so good!

Stopped in last night for the first time. I had the Rainout Hazy IPA. I loved it! I even ordered a 4 pack to go. I ordered the higenormous pretzel but after several minutes I was informed they did not have the dough ready. The bartender was friendly, welcoming and encouraged us to sample any beers we wanted to try. I would definitely go back. After looking at the menu, I would try everything on it! read more

Parking sucks! But parking anywhere in Deep Ellum sucks. Super nice staff, especially the sweet, skinny lill thing w long, dark brown hair, Mia. Beer was really good! Hazy was a true hazy beer. Staff was working their a** off on a Saturday evening while they kept maintaining professionalism. Beers are $6 for a 12-16oz pour. Tap room is awesome. Not sure how they do it but it's packed in here and its not too loud. Highly recommended. read more

Cool new taproom in Deep Ellum. Good atmosphere and nice staff. Plenty of beer on tap with styles from IPA over Scottish ale to Barleywine. None of them blew me away, but none were bad, pretty straight down the middle. If you're in the area and need a cold one it's a cool place to hang out. read more

Loved the experience! The kind and friendly owner loaded us up with samples as this inexperienced beer drinker found a favorite in the House Cider.

Been waiting for this place to open for a while now and I can day it was worth the wait. Now days with so many breweries in the DFW meteoplex, many have below average/mediocre beers just for the heck of it, BUT NOT HERE. Had a flight of Rainout, Super Saison, This Many and the Hefe... and all were Amazing. Specially the Super Saison, it was very well balanced and had the right amount of sweet to it. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of beer (which I enjoyed a lot). There was plenty of seating space. This place just opened, but I'm sure it will eventually become a beer staple in Deep Ellum. read more
