We stopped by on a Sunday for lunch. They had a brunch menu as well as their regular menu. We opted for lunch since it was after 12. All the wait staff was super friendly and helpful. Some of the best we have encountered in a while. I had the Apple and goat cheese salad (added grilled chicken) and hubby had the Italian stallion sandwich. We both had a beer that was on tap. Beers were reasonably priced and they were delicious. Food was also good. We will be back to try the pizza. So glad we found this local brewery. Give them a try - you will be glad you did. read more

Bright Penny Brewing - Pizza Near Me - Mebane, North Carolina

This review is long overdue. I stopped at Bright Penny Brewing one evening while shopping in the area. The service and the food is great. I enjoyed the pepperoni pizza. The cherry cobbler sour ale was delicious. I was pleased with my experience on this visit and I look forward to returning again. read more

Absolutely wonderful brewery. I enjoyed my deviled eggs and pizza. They have a nice variety of food and atmosphere vibes you can partake of. The little ones really had fun outside in the beer garden. Pets are welcome also. Very chill place and people were friendly. read more

Stopped by on our way through town. Told by friends to check it out. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Was busy but the service was pretty fast. You will order inside and server will bring your items to you. Had a pilsner and an IPA. I don't drink much beer so the pilsner (I think #9) was nice and light. We also had the preztle with the beer & cheese sauce. Preztle and sauce were good, but the sauce was a little thin. We will go back. read more

Absolutely incredible pizza. Neat venue as well with a beautiful airy porch with heaters as needed. The beer with orange was fantastic also, it's called Skyline. It's loud on the inside, but it's nothing different than what you would find in a city. There are two locations, there's one in the outlets and there's one about five minutes down the road. I went to the one about five minutes down the road. read more

The ambience is an all out assault on your senses. Industrial mixed with eclectic modern farmhouse . Architectural coherence bordering on an intelligent designer behind it all., or perhaps a tight budget and whatever they got a good deal on when building the place it serves to make a statement. All are welcome here. The level of care that is exhibited in ingredient selection shows an empathy towards a partnership with the community. The blending of styles demonstrates a reckless disregard for the tried and true. The blending result is righteous harmony exalted through experiences and memories. read more

Bright Penny Brewing is what I love in a brew pub: First of all, ya gotta have great beer or the rest doesn't matter. I tried the Mebane Skyline which is one of the better wheat beers I've experienced. Bright and crisp with blood orange in the finish. Atmosphere counts a lot and the rustic, industrial vibe in Bright Penny creates a relaxed atmosphere. Ample TV's provide good views of sporting events and dog shows (just kidding I think). Outside seating is abundant for warmer weather along with corn hole games. Finally, the food has to be decent and the food at Bright Penny is far beyond decent, it's damn good! Definitely try their pizza. Heck, this place is worth coming to if only for the pizza. The added bonus is incredibly friendly staff. You feel like a long time regular on the first visit. read more

Really! Everything was spot on. I came with a group of 8. We ate inside, but we could have eaten at outside. (There's also a cool garden patio area with Adirondack chairs that we lounged in with after dinner drinks.) We started by ordering at the counter. I sampled several beers and liked them all. They were super smooth and had great taste profiles (I'm not a big drinker, so I don't know if that's the right verbiage, but they were great.) We had the "Madge" deviled eggs, which were so good, then went on to salad, Apple Goat, so fresh and perfect, then the pizza. I tried the Lasagna Pizza and the Sloppy Joe Pizza. As a pizza connoisseur, the crust had the proper balance of soft and crispy, the sauce was good as was the cheese. Obviously, I can't say enough good things about this place (although with the length of this review it seems I've given it my best effort!) read more

The food is tasty. We got the deviled egg flight and picked three and all were fun and delicious. The place is nice inside and out with a beer garden setup as well. That being said the beer... is ON POINT! I'm an IPA person and I would Rand the two they had as excellent. You can order via phone with an QR code which makes it very easy and convenient. read more

We stopped in for a quick lunch while traveling through. The bar had all the college football games on, and it seems to be a popular place. The menu has about a dozen versions of deviled eggs, which was unique! We also had a pizza. It's a New York style pizza. Very fresh. No waitresses, you have to order using their app or go to the bar. read more

It's all fabulous! Big pretzels, the best pizza in town, a whole assortment of deviled eggs! And house brewed root beer! read more

There are actually 2 locations in Mebane, one by the outlets and this one. This place is fantastic. They have seating inside, but the main attraction is outside at the beer garden. It was packed today so no pictures because it's always creepy to take photos or strangers to post online. My husband, the introverts' favorite part is you can grab a table outside, scan the QR code, order from your phone and they bring it to your table. In all honesty, you could go here with never entering the place. We had the Oktoberfest and the Buffalo chicken dip with pitas. Service was great and we greatly enjoyed the beer and food! Definitely a cool place, check it out if you are in the area. The parking lot is small but there is a lot right across the street when you can park and walk over. Definitely kid and dog friendly as well. read more

Super cute place ! Really nice server ! I had a cider which I normally don't go for. But it was good! I can't even remember the name because the server suggested it. I would definitely come back for the brewery part & patio, if in the area. Ehhhhh, sadly I was disappointed about the food. The eggs lead us here and they weren't good. I had high expectations. We ordered the flight with buffalo chicken, jam & lobster dip. The yolk & the topping has no flavor. The veggie pizza & buffalo chicken pizza had a good crust but nothing to brag about! I love a good patio so it's a nice spot to sit outside & have a beer on a nice day! read more

We love this place! The food is always good and has a very good beer selection. The self order app is easy to use and the service is excellent and quick. Trivia night is fun!

Bright Penny Brewing - Pizza Near Me - Mebane, North Carolina

First visit to this establishment. Seat yourself and you may scan a qr code and do all the ordering online or someone will come over and greet you. Atmosphere is quaint, with indoor and outdoor options. Indoors can be a little loud when full but not so bad you cannot carry on a conversation. The craft beer has a nice selection and is very tasty. Started with Sal's pretzel, which was an excellent choice. Arrived hot, soft but not chewy, butter and grated parmesan, with a tomato based dipping sauce. Meal was pizza, Family Friendly. I enjoy wood fired "bar" style pizza so this was excellent. The sausage is locally sourced and some of the best I have tasted. Perfect size for two. Manager stopped by to clear the plates and asked how things were, and when found out our first visit, stayed and explained about the restaurant, going ons throughout the week. Couple days later received an email thanking us for the visit. Prices are reasonable, as I did not walk away hungry. I will definitely be returning. read more

Today I had the best ale I have had since my visit to Germany. I recommend the line light ale. I also had a fantastic cranberry chicken salad on toast. Service was great. It was nice to have options other than burgers at the outlet. read more

I love this place! I can't believe it took me so long to get out here. It's hopping, fun, great beer, and the pizza is outstanding. It gets super busy, both lots were filled when I came on a Saturday evening. Inside there's bar seating and a good amount of tables, out back there's also seating and a side deck. I tried a variety of beers and enjoyed them all. My friend and I also had the Cheesesteak pizza and the 4-1-2. They were super unique and tasty! It's a great size though, especially for the price, and the toppings are plentiful. Our bartender, Jordan, was wonderful! He checked on us constantly and like I said, they were packed. Definitely a must check out in Mebane! read more

What a cute place in Burlington! The beer was cold and tasty and they have pizzas and deviled egg flights. The deviled eggs were amazing with about 10 different flavors to choose from. The eggs were amazing. We tried Madge's and Josephine's and they were so yummy! The pizzas aren't your typical boring pizzas, they have some unique stuff on the menu. Lots of seating inside and out as well as a beer garden area outside. Service was great! Kids are welcome and they have table games to keep them occupied. Super clean restrooms. Super cute place to check out if you're in the area. read more

Bright Penny Brewing - Milk stout and blood orange wheat - Pizza Near Me - Mebane, North Carolina

Great food, atmosphere, service, and drinks. Definitely a place we will return to when in the area.

We decided to venture out to Mebane based on some great reviews from Yelp and some other investigations. Bright Penny Brewing was our main destination for coming to Mebane and we weren't disappointed with the stop. The brewery has over 20 beers on tap and after tasting a few both my wife and I decided on the Chocolate Covered Pistachio, according to the website (Imperial Stout brewed with over 50 pounds of real pistachio and 25 pounds of Dutch cocoa powder.) and according to my tastebuds WOW, frickin' awesome...! We also ordered a flight of deviled eggs, something that Bright Penny is known for and you get three choices with six half total. All were excellent, but our favorite we thought was Doreen's which was topped with dill weed, dill relish, and paprika, but Harriet's came in a close second. I think no matter what you choose you will be happy. Now, for the main we ordered the Sweet & Salty pizza (sort of like me and my wife...I will not say who is which), this is the description from the website again (Garlic oil base, topped with shaved prosciutto, sliced black mission figs, and goat cheese, finished with fresh arugula and balsamic glaze). I do this so you will know what was on the pizza. Okay, Bright Penny, there is WAY TOO MUCH GOAT CHEESE, you need to either dial it back or increase the fig or my suggestion would be to add a caramelized onion to the pizza to balance out the cheese. My wife thought a cream base would be better. A couple who sat next to us ordered the same pizza and on our way out I asked them what they thought of the pizza and they said the same thing. So, please take note, it was good but could be over-the-top good. My wife and I both agreed we would come back because this place is a gem. read more

Hubby wanted to get out and explore so we chose Mebane last Saturday. We picked this lovely establishment and enjoyed a beer called "chocolate covered pistachio". A smooth imperial Stout. Very luscious. We then picked our flight of eggs and split them. We enjoyed all of them but I have to say...I could eat a whole plate of just the "Doreens"..that relish dill weed and paprika combo was unforgettable and addicting. Now the pizza. Hmmm...our pick fell a little short. We ordered the "Sweet & Salty " and I basically feel we had a goat cheese flatbread. Soooo much goat cheese. It was a bit much. Not much of a base to it...that's why it felt like a flat bread. I'd say add a creamy fatty base to it...less goat cheese..and you got yourself a winner. We still love this place and will definitely come back and try other food and of course, my Doreens eggs. read more

What a nice Saturday afternoon. We were traveling through Mebane when the hunger hit so we stopped in to this brewery with food. The menu was pretty extensive so we needed time to go through it before ordering at the counter. We ordered a couple beers, I had the #2 which I think was Skyline and an order of Karen's deviled eggs (topped with seafood dip). I was surprised to find deviled eggs on the menu and they offer several different toppings for them so I look forward to trying some others in the future because they were very good. We sat outside in a shady spot and then ordered the buffalo chicken dip which came with pita chips and the Korean bbq pizza (flavor of the month). It was a thin crust and had very good flavor but I thought it could have had more toppings because several spots were just dough. Overall we really enjoyed our lunch and beer and looked forward to coming again. read more

They have a full bar with great drinks including alcohol slushies. The food has always been great. We've had their pizza, deviled eggs, and Buffalo chicken dip. All delicious! The servers are always kind. If you eat outside in the garden, you can scan a code & your food/drinks are brought to you. If you go inside, you order at the counter. It's always a fun atmosphere at the Bright Penny. read more

One word.....Awesome!!! As soon as I walked in, I knew this was my kind of place, I mean...who else has 8 different types of deviled eggs, 20 beers on tap, a long list of custom pizzas and great customer service. Bar seating was comfortable, there are plenty of TVs, indoor/ outdoor seating and live music on weekends. I love this set up, so many breweries do not offer food options which I think is a total miss on the business plan. Make a point to stop in and enjoy. read more

Yall...these people are doing the lord's work over here. This has got to be one of the best kept secrets in this area of North Kakalacky! First off their main sales guy who was tending bar, was just super friendly and very helpful in guiding me through the tap beer menu. Then their chef came out to talk to me, which was great. I got a couple of beers, the Pub Ale and the Spooky Spice. Both on POINT! Then, yall omg...they have a full menu list of different deviled eggs! Shut yo mouth, they were so good. I got the egg flight, 3 different kinds of deviled eggs. Sweet dear baby Jesus they were soooooo good. And theeeennnn, I got their Apple & Goat Cheese salad with a house made Raspberry Vinaigrette. Lordt have mercy it was delish. Btw, the bathrooms, super clean and the tap room is super spiffy! I live 20 minutes away, I'll definitely be back. Bright Penny crew, yall keep doing yo thang, it's amazing! read more

The service is great! Their deviled eggs are fantastic and the Island Time seltzer is off the charts yummy!!

We were in town 2 weeks, ended up going here three times. We went within two hours of "Tessa's" 2 star. Unknown when she actually went. Her rating, and the opposite experience I had two other times, caused me to go back. For the sake of research!!! (Well, and the Margarita Pizza). Tried three other deviled egg options from other visits. Fun to select. All were very good! Fresh! Had another pizza, and yes, I Did take home more peanut-butter cheese cakes! Service again beyond reproach, again we sat out in tents. (Has big fans!!) My ratings stand! By the time we left, Place was packed! Overflow parking only, most outside tables, and BeerGarden areas were full. read more

We stopped in for the beers because we know we love them, but truth be told we know we would be having dinner there as well because it never disappoints. There are probably eight different varieties of deviled eggs to start with and I love that they have a sampler allowing you to choose three flavors. The harvest salad was fresh and gave us the veggies we needed for the day and then onto that incredible lasagna pizza! It really does taste just like lasagna! Only two critiques, knives included with the silverware would make all the difference. We also asked for a side of sauce for the crust but never saw the server again. It happens. Shockingly I do enjoy their system of ordering at the table from your phone. I like my courses to come spaced apart enough to not feel rushed and this system gives me the control to do that. read more

This is a very cute brewery located in Mebane, NC. They have a small parking lot along with an outdoor beer garden. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. They have a wide variety of beer and seltzers. I ordered the County Line which was light and refreshing. I also ordered a flight of deviled eggs. I got the Josephine, Madge, and Doreen. Josephine was by far my favorite but all three were good. I had already eaten brunch or I would have gotten a pizza. I saw several on neighboring tables which looked amazing. I will definitely return and try other foods with our deviled egg flight. Staff was very kind and offered guidance when selecting food and beverages. read more

As usual, my wife did research ahead of our short weekend trip. After spending the afternoon at a nearby antiques festival, we were headed to our hotel for the night and decided to stop by Bright Penny Brewing. It is located on 7th Street just off US Highway 70 which goes through downtown Mebane. It was a little after 4:30pm as we pulled up and it appeared to be busy. Parking in their lot is a little limited but there is a lot of street parking on both sides of 7th street and another parking lot across the street. The exterior appeared to be former industrial building and we later learned it was once home to the Rice Flour Mill and Purina Feed Mill before opening as Bright Penny in May 2019. When we entered the front door, it was moderately busy but we managed to find two seats at the bar where we sat down to check out their menu. It did not look like they have table service because there was almost a constant line of people placing orders at the register. I decided to try a flight of their four IPA's on their beer menu. They brew about 20 of their own beers including cider and a root beer. My wife decided to try their grandma's deviled eggs (which they are well known for). She was able to also order a flight of eggs so she could try three different options. She also ordered a chicken Caesar salad while I chose the family friendly pizza with extra sauce. My wife's eggs and salad arrived rather quickly. She said she would have preferred that they asked and she would have chosen to have it come out at the same time as the pizza but it was a-ok. She really enjoyed the deviled eggs. My pizza arrived and looked yummy as well and I enjoyed it especially the sauce which had a bit of spice. I typically do not order beer flights but enjoyed trying the different options of IPA's which are my beer of choice. We enjoyed looking around and we soon checked out their swag and I ended up with one of their can coolers and a sticker for my collection. While we were enjoying our meals we noticed a few guys showing up with their equipment to play live music, lucky us! We were soon listening to the Rusty Dusty String Band. Overall this was a fabulous stop and we will absolutely stop in again when in the area. We took a few minutes to check out the exterior and it was impressive as well. There is a deck area, outdoor tent, and beer garden area. Check it out when in Mebane!! read more

Great pizza, quick service, enjoyed the deviled eggs, we go there every time we are close, usually once a month!

Stopped in for a late lunch. I am so glad we did! It's so nice to find a brewery with a food menu. We ordered 2 kinds of the deviled eggs. Wow! Josephine's were my favorite! Who knew that pepper jelly and eggs would be a match made in heaven!?! The Magdelena eggs were also amazing! I highly recommend both. I ordered the barbecue chicken pizza. (The 4-1-2) it was perfect. (I did say hold the jalapeño). There were at least 20 of Bright Penny beers to choose from. They even had their own lemon / lime soda and root beer. The bar tenders were great. They gave suggestions when asked and did not lead us wrong. Many tables to choose from and even had outdoor seating. Overall a great experience! Go visit this little gem! read more
