Crafter's Brew is one of those places that makes you feel welcome the moment you walk through the door. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the selection is excellent. One of my favorite things about Crafter's Brew is the live music. They consistently bring in talented musicians who create the perfect backdrop for a great evening with friends. Whether you're there to enjoy a drink, catch some live entertainment, or simply unwind after a long day, the experience is always top-notch. The owners and staff have done a fantastic job creating a place where people can gather, connect, and make memories. Great drinks, great music, great people--what more could you ask for? Highly recommend Crafter's Brew to anyone looking for a fun and welcoming local spot! read more

Great beer, great people in a laid back atmosphere. They offer rotating food trucks again and good music on the weekends. They Trivia and Singo during the week. Their beertenders are the best in the state. read more

While exploring options near my new found home in TN Yelp lead me here. And I'm glad it did! First things - the exterior patio is so freaking fun! Lots of tables with shade umbrellas, a pool/fountain, lots of plants, and tons of fun & funky decor! I was absolutely going to sit outside to enjoy this! The inside of the beer house is great too - with the fun theme continued if that's more your thing. It's also important to note the beer house and restaurant are in SEPERATE buildings! Not an issue really - you just have to walk over, order, then they bring it to you. The beer house has a lot of brews on tap - local and imports! I believe there were about 24 to choose from so lots of options! You can even do flights (4 or 6) which I always do when at a new place to see what I might like a full pint of in the future. There was only one beerista to serve a long line of thirsty patrons, but she moved the line fairly quickly. The restaurant next door didn't have the same appeal as the beer joint and I'm not sure I'd find myself doing anything other than ordering food to be brought next door to me from there. Not exactly somewhere I'd like to sit and enjoy my food. (Maybe a clever ploy to get you to drink more beer - LOL) I enjoyed most of my flight for sure. As for food - I got the "famous chicken salad". The bread was nicely grilled and overall it was pretty good. But it wasn't my type of chicken salad - it was very sweet! Next time I'll opt for a pizza since they looked pretty good coming to others or some other type of sandwich. They also have live music occasionally too! So that's cool. I'll be back for sure once I'm settled in my new home! read more

I do a lot of work in oak ridge and crafters brew is always a favorite of mine for dinner. They have a great beer selection and next door has lots of yummy food with a few good vegetarian options. We always try to go on Tuesdays for trivia when we are in town read more

We went as a group on Tuesday evening for trivia night. The ambience was great. A lot of street parking spots available. I got the pineapple cider which is super light and refreshing. My colleague's dark chocolate beer is so special. The pool is definitely the highlight, although the dummy is interesting. The trivia was so fun! It was a little chilly outside after it got dark and the manager guy helped us got a table indoors. Would love to come back during summer time to get some splashes. And next time will for sure get some good food. read more

Wonderful ambiance amd atmosphere, great place to be when the world is falling apart and you just need some good food, friends, music, amd of course, beer. Check them out, you won't be disappointed read more

Great atmosphere & beer selection. Live playing singo with my sisters. Staff is always pleasant!

A fun little place that is dog friendly! I wasn't a huge fan of the ordering set up, as you had to order from this really high counter, that my eyeballs barely reached over. However, loved the ambiance and the uniqueness of this hole in the wall type of bar. read more

My group is from out of town and we couldn't have felt more welcome. We ended up coming in trivia night (Tuesday) and had a great time! We had 3 of the pizza's Tuscan, bbq pork and all meat one and they were all good. The bbq was my favorite. The cauliflower wings were great and so were the funnel cake fries and the lava cake. They had an excellent draft selection and will help you make a choice if you can't pick. To top it off, we had difficulty getting an Uber or Lyft (repeated cancellations) so we were worried we would have to walk back to our hotel. The owner of the bar, Chris, ended up giving us a ride back to the hotel and refused any money for it. Just wonderful hospitality. Please show this place some love. If I come back to Oak Ridge, I will definitely come back here. read more

Finally gave this funky little place a try. The decor is eclectic to say the least. There is seating inside (picnic tables) and out. So, the seating is geared to groups. Would be nice to have a bar to sit and chat with the bartender if you drop in solo. There is a good selection of craft beers on tap and there is a kitchen serving food (appetizers, sandwiches, burgers and pizza). Fun atmosphere and a bonus, at least for me, was the music - hard rock and classic rock - playing while I was there. If you like beer, definitely check this place out. read more

Its starting to slip away. The dartboards are gone, trash lines the fence line. The beer selection is back to local brews and lacks inspiration or imagination. The adjacent cafe/restaurant is best summed up this way: It's Saturday night and they have no cheese sticks and no pretzels? That leaves deep fried food as the remaining options. Yuck. The music on the weekends is loud, my app tells me it's above 120Db. Hearing damage occurs at above 85Db after 20 minutes. read more

Great brew and sandwich's Excellent customer service Place to go for a fun causal evening out read more

What a Rueben! Their sandwiches, panini, and pizza are always so good! The outdoor patio with live music is fun. We don't drink, and we still love going there for the food and occasional music. It's a fun atmosphere, almost like being on a beach vaca. Music is hit or miss, but the food is always yummy - and you can always sit inside the restaurant as well. read more

Always a fun atmosphere and the craft beer is always tasty. The pizza from the neighboring restaurant was delivered promptly and it was delicious. read more

This review is just on the food we ordered. The ambience is great, the outdoor seating area is really cozy, the staff was friendly, and the beer options were impressive, although we did not have any tonight. We were just looking for a fun place to grab a bite before a movie and yelp led us to try this joint out. I ordered a simple BLT and fries, my husband ordered a burger. The food was beyond disappointing. Once I found the bacon on my BLT it was thin and chewy like it had been reheated or something. And there was barely any on the sandwich. My husband's hamburger tasted like a frozen patty or something you would get at a school cafeteria. His burger bun was also stale and hard on one side. The only thing that was okay were the fries and the homemade dipping sauce which had a nice kick. We did see others ordered food which looked better than what we were served, especially the pizza. If we come here again, we may give it a try. Very disappointed tonight, however. First impression was a big bust. read more

Crafter's Brew - The bacon is missing in my BLT...? - American Near Me - Oak Ridge, Tennessee

Crafters is our go-to every week. They have the best wings and pizza in town!! Everything is reasonably priced and the kitchen staff is so friendly. We have tried just about every sandwich on their menu and there is nothing that disappoints. Husbands favorite is the Cuban, while lately I have ordered the wings with the spicy Thai sauce. Even their desserts are satisfying! Can't beat the chocolate lava cake! read more

Great place to relax and chill out and fill up with friends It is delightfully a bit "quirky", but that is a big part of its draw! The outdoor fire pit is a great place to sit "chill" next to the fire on cool evenings. We've also gotten a number of mighty eats there as well. Chris provides ALL MICRO BREW beers MANY OF WHICH become fast favorites. YUM G read more

Great service and selection. The owner is awesome. Will definitely come back if I'm ever in Oak Ridge again.

Getting brews right after work is pretty awesome. And on top of that, the best part of it is that the options they have here all suit my tastes in beers. This place is pretty centrally located and easy to get to along with plentiful spaces to park. I usually come here to for a quick beer after work at times and it's a great place to hang out. I've heard that Crafter's also has an active chess meetup here as well which is pretty cool, but I haven't had the chance to stop by to play. Overall, they have a pretty good selection and there's plenty of seating. The outside seating is plenty, but during the cold months I would guess that inside would be a little more packed and busier. The inside seating is a little limited, but during the 3 other seasons there's plenty of seating. Lastly, if you're hungry they provide food but you can only get it across the street at their restaurant. They serve small bar types of food. If that doesn't fancy your taste buds, then you have the choice of the food truck that's on rotation in the back. Overall, this place is great to drink at and it's just a nice relaxed atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place if you're trying to find some custom craft beer but don't want to drive out to Hardin Valley or Knoxville. read more

Best place in town! The food was excellent with a wide variety of foods and flavors (brew, too!), and the customer service was awesome. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and accommodating. Do yourself a favor and check it out. It was a fun, relaxing night. They have trivia on Tuesdays and many other events, bands, etc. The owner takes pride in his business and in how he and his staff care for the customers. We felt like regulars! All this to say, GO, you wont be disappointed. read more

The food is always good the atmosphere is joyful always good to go the severs are nice and quick. 5/5 definitely recommend.

My fiancé and I just got done with hiking all day with our dog Rocky and we were trying to find a place that was dog friendly and we discovered Crafter's brew we found out you have the choice of ordering from 2 different restaurants across the road and they DELIVER it to you! She ordered pizza from the kitchen and I had street tacos from Barrios 10/10. read more

Fun place, great beer, wonderful selection to choose from. Especially fun when they have live music. I would highly recommend this place!

Great environment, wonderful people, terrific beer!!!! Also, the kitchen is great. Cauliflower pizza and wings are especially AMAZING!

Love the bear selection! Growing up in East TN and living in multiple locales since, I have had lots of different styles of beers. When we make it back to Oak Ridge, we always make it a point to go by and have a few beers. Seems like every time I show up, there is something I haven't ever tried. read more

Fun place with a cool, quirky ambiance. Great beers. The food could be a little better. I wish they had better hours. They don't open until 3 pm. read more

I loved this place BEFORE they opened up the little corner building next door to provide food. Now, this is one of my favorite places to grab a hoppy IPA or a boozy stout. The decorations are the best... love hanging out here in any season. read more

This is a great place to have some good beer and food (we had pizza) and some music to listen too as well. Voodoo Cadillac were playing with a very diverse set, highly recommend visiting this place. read more

One of my favorite spots!! Great selection of local microbrews on tap. Live music on the patio most days. Staff is great! Pet friendly and always a great crowd read more

I love this place and the food they serve next door. The atmosphere is so fun and you feel like family. We go there often for Trivia night and have a blast. Great place! read more

My place. The Cheers of Oak Ridge. Great beer, good company and the best bar food around.

Awesome experience. An amazing oasis. Love the selection of brews, not to mention the slushies.

Fun place with outdoor seating perfect for the summer. Lots of different brew choices.

Nice place! I'm in from out of town for work, and breweries are far and few between around here. Nice selection, friendly service, good prices, fun atmosphere! I'll be back for sure! read more

Friendly staff! They bring it right to your table after you order at the kitchen. We ordered a pizza and a sandwich to share. Both were very tasty. We loved the frozen drinks especially since it was a warm day. Just an overall fun place. read more
