    picnic tables and a fire pit

    CAPE MAY: Historic Cold Spring Village is an outdoor living history museum which is open seasonally and is pet friendly, but happened to be closed when we visited in late September. The village reopens on June 15, 2024. Luckily on the property, and opened year-round, is Cold Spring Brewery, one of the most unique breweries we have ever been to! Located inside a restored beautiful barn is a tasting room full of so much character, great beer, and a friendly atmosphere. It is NJ's only non-profit brewery that helps support the village to preserve history. The awesome beertender, Bill, made some great tasting suggestions and we had a fun time drinking the Hildreth German Wheat, Cold Spring Red, Cape May Farmhouse, and Pumpkin Festival Ale. There are 15 varieties on tap including non-alcoholic options. Most importantly, leashed dogs are allowed inside and there is also a great outdoor space with firepits and peaceful views. Check their schedule for live music.

    Stopped in on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in March with my girlfriend while on a whirlwind tour of breweries in the Cape May area. It has the distinction of being the first (and only?) non-profit microbrewery in NJ. It's located in the Historic Cold Spring Village, a living history museum, and all proceeds from the brewery benefit the museum. As a major history lover, this for me is reason enough to visit. The brewery is in a beautifully restored 19th century barn. It is, hands down, one of the most beautiful taprooms I have ever been in, and I've been to just about every brewery in South Jersey. The man pouring beers was exceptionally friendly and helpful. My girlfriend and I sat with our beers on couches in front of a gas fireplace and a giant tv showing pictures of dogs (the place is dog friendly and allows dogs inside). It was extremely pleasant. Everything about this place is five stars, but I think the beer itself brings it down to four stars. We each had a flight, so we tried eight different beers between the two of us. Nothing really stood out to us. It was all decent but nothing extraordinary. In terms of beer alone it is nowhere near the top breweries in the state. Another random nitpicky thing is that all beers - pints and flights alike - are served in plastic cups. It's a shame to be in a beautiful rustic barn and to have to drink out of plastic cups like I'm at a frat party.

    Great outdoor seating and the indoor looks nice as well. Tuesday afternoon in June so not too crowded but a good experience

    Amazing atmosphere! So beautiful , less Of the insane typical brewery crowd , more of a country boho vibe. We had an excellent bartender! And we will be back soon, love our time here will be back to see Steve! Thank you :)

    I loved that this brewery was attached to the historic cold spring village. The building is an old restored building and it's beautiful. You can get a flight, draft, and cans to go. There was an electric fire pit outside as well. The craft beer was pretty good and the service was pretty quick.

    Plastic cup... because, you know, Covid in July of 2022.

    It's raining...or maybe it's sunny...and you're looking to do a brewery tour in Cape May County...feel confident skipping Cold Springs Brewery. I've been here three times now, and somehow the beer keeps getting worse. I'm not sure if it's the water quality or overall lack of attention to detail that keeps their beer low quality, but whatever it is, the beer is terrible. I gave them a pass during Covid, but the failures keep adding up. In addition to the taste of the beer, they continue to insist on serving everything in plastic cups. I'm sure that's more convenient for the bored, lazy, and overall disinterested staff, but every other brewery has returned to glassware, so telling customers that plastic is "...for the pandemic..." Is a lie. I want this place to succeed. Find someone willing to work hard from another local brewery and give them a chance. In the meantime, I'm going to CoHo, Cape May Brewery, or Slack Tide.

    Beautiful venue, but I didn't think that the beer was that great. Bartender was great too. Worth a stop
