I love Two Silos! Excellent beer. Superb bar food! Fun music! Nice ambience! A very pleasant staff!

I really thought I would like this place, but there are some definite improvements to be made. From the beginning, we found that there was a confusing layout to the grounds. It wasn't entirely clear which lot we should park in or where we needed to go to get to the food/music. I think I saw one sign, but it would be helpful to have directions on the ground or periodic arrows on the walkways. When we entered the main restaurant area with live music, we found it was packed with parties. (And if I thought it was packed when I got there, it was overflowing by the time I left.) Because our friends were bringing their daughter and they limit the places children can go, our options for seating were in front of the stage with the music blasting, in back room with black curtains and brewing equipment, or outside in the chilly weather. We opted to sit in the back room, which also completely filled up just two minutes after we were seated. The majority of the food and beverages were really overpriced. Edamame is $7 for just the soybeans and kosher salt!!! It was $8 for a pretty standard "spiked cider." I was also surprised that there was no lid on my cider. It was quite hot and with all the people and little kids running everywhere, I was afraid I was going to burn someone on the way to the back room. The ahi salad tasted good, but it looked like the person who cut the ahi had no idea how to do so. The pieces were very uneven and ragged. The red onions were also pretty strong with the balance of the salad--and I like red onions. Probably the best part of the visit was that all the employees were very nice and helpful. They seem to have a great staff here, but it still doesn't make up for the layout and food. I would return if someone invited me, but I wouldn't choose to return on my own. read more

My husband and I went to 2 Silos today for lunch and it was a nice setting outdoors. The staff were great and let us sample a few beers. We did a hefeweizen and cream ale. We also ordered a chicken bacon ranch pizza, pretzel and a southwest salad with chicken. The pizza was the real winner, but the rest of the dishes were pretty good. The chicken in the salad was super plain and lacking in flavor. My rating is more about the experience than each element of the food. I wouldn't rush back for the food. read more

This place is super fun. Even in the winter there are lots of heat lamps and igloos to enjoy the outdoors. The food is nothing special but worth it for the live music and atmosphere. read more

This place is A-OK. It's a pretty central location for all of our friends in Fairfax to Woodbridge to meet up. I've had company Happy Hour's here, friends birthday parties and dates at 2 Silos. I wanted to hold off on my review cause each time I came the service and experience is different. Sometimes, like the time it was freezing and someone lite a fire for us; it was exceptionally good! They would make sure everything was warm and even offered to watch dog that was tied up while we refilled our beers. Other times, I normally get yelled at to get my dog out of the patio section that has coverage in the middle or rain storms, or the music is so LOUD that I instantly get migraines. Overall this place is A-OK. It has great venue space, and a LOT going on. From ice cream bus, kids play area, to food trucks, BBQ pits, opening a full service restaurant and Wine space, as well as a private venue room. Plus they are still developing. They also have corn hole, boccie ball, etc. The food is OVER PRICED. There is no way to swing that. Wings were like $14 bucks and pizza we split was #15-$16. It was $30 just for the food and another $20 after tip for two beers. This was a $50 lunch date... I wish they had healthier options too. Like just ranch, carrots and celery for $3 would be great! Or popcorn/ chips and salsa for like $5 would be great! Normally we end up spending well over $100 for two people to split some food and grab drinks with friends on birthday parties or co-worker night out. I honestly dislike how LOUD they keep the stage. You can't even conversant with your friends. I end up feeling drained on Friday/Saturday nights here just from the LOUD music. If music is good, they can play it acoustically from the stage. Why do you feel the need to Blast the music to hide the lack of talent? If your looking for a great venue that is Dog Friendly in most places, and you don't care about price; this is a great place to go. They have a lot going on, you will have to visit a few times to find it all. read more

If you're looking for a great venue (especially when it's nice outside) look no further. Lots of bars to get good beers and cocktails from as well as plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. They have a stage where there is usually live music being played, fire pits further out, and lots of food options. They have their own food such as pizza, wings, etc. but there are also usually food trucks there serving Mexican dishes, ice cream, coffee, bbq, etc. I look forward to going back again soon. Good food and beer and great times. read more

Food at the food trucks is remarkably unimpressive. We ordered from several - the ambiance, menu, and truck design trick you into thinking you'll get quality. You don't. I'm so glad I didn't order from the bbq truck, quite confident I would have been majorly disappointed since I own a smoker. Read other people's reviews and decided against it. The ambiance was cool though if you like an ultra crowded beer garden. read more

Meh, is the comment from my group today and in general. Areas for improvement, they need fresh brewed iced tea, fresh is always better than in bottles. The strawberry salad sounded like a great idea but wasn't tasty, it almost seemed prepackaged and wasn't tossed. The chicken wings had too many feathers or fur still on the wings, and my preference, is they should be deep fried before cooking in the oven, but that's just my preference. The mushroom pizza needed more salt. read more

The food is decent. Beers are pretty good. The live music was extremely loud making it hard to hear over people. Also super crowded so it's hard to find indoor seating or seating with heaters. read more

Must try! I'd heard about this place for a while & it exceeded my expectations. Right when we pulled up, I was surprised by how well the set up was. There's an outdoor stage for live music and plenty of outdoor seating with picnic benches, wooden lawn chairs & a food truck area with 3 trucks. There's indoor seating too that's well taken care of. My friends and I got the Buffalo chicken dip for an appetizer and 3 pizzas. You order at the kiosk and then get a text when the food is ready. 2 silos is a great place to hang or go for a celebratory event. read more

Great place for beers and pizza, . One of the few places open during lunch hour as well. Sometimes we like to come here for lunch if I have the day off from work! read more

The Positives:. -The outdoor atmosphere is excellent, especially on a pleasant day. A beautiful facility and grounds. - Live music is much appreciated. Thank you. -The bartenders and staff seem to be pretty cordial and professional. -The pizza is pretty darn good, thin crusted and crispy. -The happy hour is good and nicely priced with some options of food at a decent price. - I know its a DC suburb, but the customers, clientele seem to be quite friendly, happy, polite and cordial for this region. Kind of a southern USA vibe which is refreshing compared to my area of snobby Loudoun County. I love the vibe of the peeps. I hope it stays that way. The Negative: -12 ounce beers are a disgrace for microbrewery standards which are 16 ounces (a pint). I think the management is trying to rip us off doing this and it's very tacky and petty. This is very stingy and not a good look. Please pour all 16 ounce servings unless it's a high alcohol beer like an imperial ipa. 12 ounce beers are not industry standard. Don't be cheap!! - The restaurant needs a bigger kitchen and more self serve kiosks to meet high demand periods. There are only two kiosks. I waited over 18 minutes for a fricken pretzel. It was cold by the time I received it. The beer cheese has no flavor. Do not serve this unflavored item. It doesn't taste like real cheese. read more

2 Silos Brewing - Brewpubs Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

This place caught my eye as I was driving in between the weekend errands/chores list, and since I was ready for a short break I stopped in for a beer. Several dinning options, live music, and family friendly. Fire pits and plenty of seating. Several bar areas for beer, wine, and cocktails. Although I didn't try the cocktails or even look at the menus for them or the wine list, I think this would be a great option if anyone in your party doesn't enjoy beer. I'll certainly be back to this brewery. read more

I stopped by 2 Silos, and let me just say that the beer is a big brew jackpot! I had a flight of some of their finest beers, and each sample was a winner. I was particularly pleased with 2 Silos cream ale, which was nothing short of candy in a glass..yum! They also served up some amazing pizza, a pie that was loaded with cheesy goodness. Equally impressive, 2 Silos venue has something for everyone. The grounds include a stunning stage, fire pits, beer garden, and a barbecue shack. It is easy to see how this place could really rock in the summer. So why only four stars? The only shortcoming I could find in 2 Silos was the simple fact that they don't offer bar seating. I'm a bar purist, and I prefer to get to know the bartender and learn what is new, something a little tough to do seated at a long table. And if you're visiting the brewery solo, the bar is just a more comfortable option. Still, I'd still visit 2 Silos again, if only for that delicious cream ale. read more

Beer with me for this review! VA is the state for lovers and should be called the state for drinkers due to the # of wineries, distilleries, and breweries per capita. This is one of the local ones which gives a good name to the beer scene. There's a nice variety of beers here; something for everyone which is how it should be. The Irish red ale and country Porter are my favorites: red ale is easy to drink with a nice hops amount while the porter has the right thickness. Lots of seating and you can go to the fire pits out on the lawns when it's cold. Nothing like warming yourself with a cold beer next to open flame. They also serve food but just beers for us. Live music also comes on which will draw a nice crowd. The band we saw did all Tom Petty covers: can't get anymore American than that (may god rest his soul). It's kind of in the middle of some lease buildings so seems a bit odd for a brewery and stage. I doubt the professionals who work in those buildings will complain though! read more

2 Silos Brewing - What's on tap! - Brewpubs Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

This is a great weekend spot! They have food, beer, wine and cocktails! They have both indoor and outdoor seating. They also have activities for both kids and adults (I.e. cornhole). Most weekends they also have someone performing on stage as well for live music! read more

Service is wonderful, helped us decide which beer would best fit our taste. They offer the ability to try the beer prior to purchasing. We were all happy with our choices. They offer light and dark beer, but no ciders. The house made seltzer's were also tasty and refreshing. We ordered crab dip, spinach dip, buffalo chicken tots and southwestern trio dip. The appetizers were all okay, definitely delicious in the moment but nothing to write home about. The best was the crab dip. Wonderful ambience. There was live music, shaded seats, quick service. Beyond the brewery, there are seats where you can relax, grab a beer from the food truck and listen to the live music through speakers. read more

This is a hard one for me to write. So basically 2 Silos is a really cool spot because it's located on a "campus" which contains a bunch of breweries, areas outside to relax, and even a little stage. In Covid times, you can reserve an outdoor igloo to safely enjoy some beer with friends/family. The igloos are really cool looking, are heated, and they provide you with blankets as well. They offer a big menu of different good beers to choose from and they even have a well stocked bar so you can get other drinks as well. My friend enjoyed the vodka sodas immensely. If you're hungry, you can also choose from one of the many small plate options. We got the chips& dips plus pretzels and beer cheese. Both were delicious! Nevertheless, the customer service is really bad. They're reeeeeeally slow and we experienced some rudeness as well. Overall we had a good experience but the customer service definitely needs some help and greatly impacted my review. Id overlook it and come again but hey- it's an easy fix, though! read more

Although it can be a little bit confusing getting there at first but there's plenty of parking spaces available.

My friends decided to take me to my first ever beer brewery. I must say, for my first time ever this was such an awesome experience. I tried sips of beer before in the past but never liked or was ever a fan of how beer tasted in general. After trying many selections and getting a little buzz off of them lol, i found three that i really enjoyed. The atmosphere was really nice as well as kid friendly. We sat outside under the heat warmers, ate our pizza and nachos. We talked, laughed, and even just enjoyed one another's company. I'll be back again for sure. I can say that this place really opened up my eyes as someone who can now find an enjoyable moment with beer. read more

We've visited 2 Silos Brewing twice now. One time we sat outside, the second time it was was way to cold to sit outside! Both times we all had ale samplers. I have to say that most of their ales are well crafted and well executed! I think my absolute favorite Ale thus far has been their "Mason Pale Ale." It comes off and drinks like a well balanced, hoppy IPA! There is a place inside to order food. Outside, there is a large fireplace with a fire going in cold weather, plus an outside place to get Barbecue and such. There is also a large music performance area, and small outdoor geodesic domes you can rent in cold weather - completed with a heater and 8 chairs. There is also fire pits with chairs. Not sure if these need to be rented or not. Service was good when we ordered our tasting flights. The small glasses are served up in muffin tins to hold the glasses. #2SilosBrewing read more

2 Silos Brewing - Great cold beer! - Brewpubs Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

Great place for groups! I came here Saturday afternoon on a warm spring day and it was easy to tell why it was so packed! From the easy kiosk ordering to the wood-oven pizza, tasty sangria, delicious beer, and empanada food truck, 2 Silos is definitely a crowd-pleaser and a great spot to spend a few hours. While my fiancee were hunting for a seat as it's all self-serve, we were able to find an open table within a couple of minutes. The kiosks were easy to use with pagers. Within 10 minutes, my order came out pipping hot and ready to be devoured! I really enjoyed the Margarita pizza and not a crumb was left. The pizza was perfectly cooked from the wood-oven with a sweet red sauce and fresh basil. I appreciated how the pizza wasn't doused with cheese, it had just the right amount. I do wish the pizza was a bit less oily on top, although it wasn't greasy on the bottom. I highly recommend getting the Margarita. As much I praise the pizza, the kale and quinoa salad was underwhelming and disappointing. There was a lot of slaw, where's the kale? The ingredients were haphazardly thrown together resulting in lackluster flavor. $13 for a sad sad salad. While I don't expect 5 star salads at breweries, this was probably one of the worst yet one of the most expensive salads that I've ordered. My fiancee wasn't a big fan of the Asian style wings. Where's the sauce? He devoured the Nachos. The drinks here are solid. I thoroughly enjoyed the fruity red sangria with brandy. It's sweet but not overly sugary. The white sangria is quite tasty too with Malibu rum and juice. Highly recommend both! My fiancee enjoyed the Imperial Stout. If I wasn't so stuffed from the pizza, I would have gone over to the La Gringa food truck. The fried mac and cheese balls, cheese empanadas, and fried oreos looked mouthwatering good! Maybe next time! I recommend coming here with a group of people who enjoy beer or sangria and some pizza! read more

Food was good, beer was outstanding! Ambiance was nice! I would recommend this place to others.

The Thomasson dairy barn is now a brewery in Prince William County, built in 1929, it now has new life. Does it get any better than this for a Manassas based craft brewery? Maybe...I think they have some 'kinks' to work out before they are 5 star worthy. Lines are way too long especially at the Pit. They sell beers in cheap/flimsy plastic cups and it's not even a pint yet they charge $7 bucks like a pint. This will only last for so long. I had the Belgium...meh...then the Stout...better...then the Fest...couldn't finish it. They do have multiple craft beers sourced from local, farm grown suppliers. They are better than average but not what I would expect with they tout a 'brewmaster' on site. Multiple food options PLUS live entertainment! You can get pulled pork & brisket from the Pit. There's wood fired pizza and wings from the Pour House. You can play bocci ball or bean bag toss. You can gather round a toasty warm fire pit and listen to some great live tunes with the speakers right beside. It seems they have free live music daily except Mondays. Mostly local bands but the word is they intend to draw some regional level performers eventually. It's in a great easy access location at Route 234 bypass & Route 28. You must enter off Route 234 or just wave as you drive by on Route 28. The big barn and the Black Sheep won't open till maybe April. I do like that is very family friendly, I'm not too crazy about all the dogs cruzing around. Get there early or be prepared to walk a ways and wait in some long lines read more

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Went on a Friday night around 8pm with my friends and they had a live band! I really enjoyed myself!

Will 100% be visiting again when I am back in this area! read more

We went to 2 Silos for Father's Day for the very first time. It was really a 3-Star experience, but I have to account for the busy weekend effect. By 6 pm (they closed at 9 pm) they were out of the ribs, and most other meat except the chicken. Petersen's I've Cream was actually closed that day. And, while the entertainment was fine, it was really not that great for a Holiday weekend. The food tends to be expensive for what you get. The beer is good. The facility itself is beautiful. It's someone's dream of a beer park made into reality. It's family- and dog-friendly. Lots of kids and dogs on-leash. Plenty of picnic bench/BierGarten type seating. Water stations, misting/cooling stations. Lovely landscaping. Great location! Food was just okay, especially for the price. Hint to management...use larger chunks of boneless skinless chicken thigh meat on your bacon wrapped skewer, and let the bacon get crispy. It was way too flubbery with the small white meat chunks you use. The white meat cooks much faster than the bacon does. We loved the place overall. It's a dream park. Wine is also served. I didn't get to try it because I was DD for the night. Next time. And, there will be a next time! read more

I loved this place! The Buffalo Chicken Pizza was delicious and it had the perfect amount of everything on it. The crust was also the best pizza crust EVER!! The wait was also very quick for the food and drinks. Drinks can be ordered in the big building, or in the outside bar (last photo). They have a lot beer as well as liquor but the inside does not. In addition, this place had live music (which I love) & it very much reminded me of the breweries in Utah! Highly recommend you coming out and trying this place! read more

Was so excited to visit this place and was happy to see it finally opened ...... until I actually went.... The venue itself is amazing and I can see a lot of potential for this place especially when they utilize the full grounds and have concerts there. The firepits and seating area is probably one of the best places on the grounds, the outdoor seating next to the main building isnt bad and has a nice fireplace. Indoor seating reminds me of a Biergarten style seating with a loft area that with couches that reminds me of CHIVE HQ's couches .... oh btw seating here is 1st come 1st serve and you just roam around until you find some empty seats. Food and drinks are a bit on the pricey end and expect to shell out over $70 just for some food and 1 beer. yup we ordered a pizza, wings, pretzel, beer, and a diet coke... tab came out to $70+.... Pizza was good but for a 10" pizza costing over $14 ???? nawww not that good. Wings were ok... but for what you paid for... you would expect more wings. ... the flavor was good ... I ordered the asian style wings. The pretzel... I shouldve passed on that, i was a decent size pretzel but nothing stood out about it, the beer cheese sauce was ok, but came out a bit cold which isnt good, the mill ground mustard was cold and didnt get picked up easily by the pretzel. so overall these place can use some improvements and it would be a pretty good place. read more

Such a cute brewery! It was my first time here with some friends. We were able to reserve an igloo the day of (Sunday) which was super cute. Limit per igloo is $100 which can be easily met. We tried a bunch of their pretzels which were delicious! My husband loved the cinnamon sugar pretzel and I loved the classic. the cheese was cold by the time we got the pretzel so it was a little thick and didnt taste the best but otherwise the pretzel itself was delicious! Deff want to discover more if I were to come back! They seem to have a lot going on! read more

Been here a couple times (with and without my dog), and always have had a fun experience at this brewery. As stated, dog-friendly brewery, both inside and outside seating, plenty of covering/shade, multiple food options (restaurant inside, and food stands and trucks outside (BBQ, wings, pizza, ice cream)), live music, fire pits, oversized lawn chairs, and games (I.e. cornhole). Live music was TERRIBLE when I went (not even the "selection" or genre of songs that was disappointing, but the person's actual voice, sounded like I was singing karaoke); but live music is still live music. They appear to have both fireplaces for the cold weather, and multiples fans for the warmer weather. Food is "ok", typical bar food, and beer selection is ok. It's worth going here for the ambiance, just don't expect too much out of the food or beer. read more

My brother and I went to Two Silo's last week when the weather was beautiful and enjoyed the venue immensely! The food from two silos particularly the pizzas were delicious and the wait staff very courteous and attentive. I really like the idea, that you had a staff member who was dedicated to making sure that the puppies had water! I was kind of surprised by the condition of the patio umbrellas, and that most of them were broken and had missing pieces. It's time to fix those puppies before you have an accident and a lawsuit. Otherwise, I would return there again, as it was a wonderful experience for my brother and I! read more

I would give this place 5 stars, if it weren't for all the toddlers and strollers I had to trip over every time I'm there.

That aside, the beer selection is stellar and the food is delicious. If the kiddies were left at home, 2 Silos would have my 5 stars, for sure. read more

This place sucks. Has nothing to do with COVID. Okay, so the actual venue is cool, but the piss poor management is why this place sucks. I have tried to go here several times for happy hour and each time I am hit over the head with 'Do you have a reservation?' and 'You need to go inside and talk to the hostess to claim a table.' We arrive, sit at an open table outside, and nobody comes up to greet us or say anything. A group of waiters and waitresses start to gawk at us and then they finally come up to our table. They said we can't sit here and have to leave! Seriously? If the table is reserved, put a sign on it or rope it off so people know! Have someone at the front to tell people before they sit down! We go inside to 'reserve/clame a table, and There's nothing available until 8:45!!! WTF. There are plenty of open tables outside. Why the hell is it so hard to get a freaking beer? So we leave and go to another brewery. Never again will I waste my time here. Complete joke. Who goes to a brewery and is told they can't be served??? Turning away business??? You're too good for my business? Or I'm not good enough for your business? There are countless other breweries in the area with way better service and beer! You shouldn't need a reservation for happy hour! Such horsesh-t. Or to be turned away. Support the other local breweries. Here's a list for you. Heritage, Tin Canon, Old Bust Head, Ornery, Bad Wolf, Sinistral, The Farm, and more and more... Note to management: Learn how to manage. read more
