Outdoor seating

The brewery is massive with a nice clean indoor space and outdoor patio. Dogs are allowed outdoors only so please be mindful when bringing them in the heat. There are a few fans outside. This was a quick spontaneous trip so I only had one bear which was the Tsunduko which is their Japanese rice lager. I was craving a z Kieran so this was the perfect cool crisp beer to satisfy that craving. The staff was very friendly. The gentleman at the checkin was informative of the area and recommended some food places as Creature Comforts does not sell food (though they have food trucks occasionally.) 10/10 would recommend.

I have been to Creature Comforts a few times. I love this brewery. First off, it's HUGE. There is so much space to sit inside or even stand if you want too. For this particular visit, it was super packed, but we were still able to find a spot to sit, and there were about 10 of us. They have a HUGE menu of a bunch of different drink options. They have your regular beers, mocktails, cocktails, frozen drinks, and they even have THC beverages! It's nice to see that they have many other options besides just beer. The service is great as well too, and the entire staff is all super friendly and helpful. The establishment is also very clean too. They even have a gift store where you can buy some Creature Comforts merch. I didn't buy anything this time around, but when I came previously, I had purchased a t-shirt. The brewery is located right in DT Athens, so it can be the perfect place to go to before something or even after.

I am not a brewery kind of girl but I must say this place was very nice. My niece and brother loved it and their beers. What I do appreciate is that they had something that I could drink other than their beer or water. They have a little gift store and we picked up a cute little baby outfit. It was Fathers day and my brother got a free beer. The place is spacious and lots of light. We got there at 1:45 pm and by 2:30 the place was full. We were allowed to order food and have it dropped off. We had a great time.

Not only a great selection of beverages but seating as well. Enjoy the outdoor garden area or the larger indoor space with direct views of the brewery operations. Plenty of space for events and the keg tables are cool. Need something. To take home they offer plenty of room for easily 200 people.

What a fabulous place!! Now while there is not food for sale there may be a food truck in proximity or their amazing farmer's market!!! I have never seen such amazing vegetables on shelves in years! But the brewery... gorgeous yet very large. It seemed family friendly but again it was during the farmers market also. They have a great selection and merch for sale. I got the flight. They are up there as far as good local beers that everyone should know.

I've been wanting to try Creature Comforts Brewing for such a long time! Of course part of that is wanting to go to Athens as well for it's rock music background (R.E.M., B-52's). I know those band's heyday are past but the desire to go remains. At last I did get a hold of some Creature Comforts beer(got a small taste of Athens but not enough. Another time.) Awaken, My Love was the beer I had from Creature Comforts. An Imperial Stout with chocolate, cinnamon and coffee flavors. This beer was so good. I rate beers on Untapped and I issued a five star rating which is very, very rare for me to do! That tells you just how much I loved this beer! Unfortunately I didn't get to try anything else (Awaken, My Love did have a 13% ABV) but I'm pretty confident that any of this brewery's beer would be excellent since I was in such awe with the one I had!

Cool brewery that captures the essence of the University nearby. Frat houses, Dawg statues large screen sporting events (football) and really cold delicious craft beer in downtown Athens. I enjoyed the Feel Free, bursting with flavor and just the right chill. I sampled the Imperial Trop Haze. It was a great a IPA but I only had time for one brew this day.

Lots of space inside and out, large variety of beers and customizable flights. I visited on a Saturday nights and they had live bands playing outside. Great for groups or casual past by. My fav was the neon cylinder. It has a sour twist.

Creature Comforts is a great local brewery located in downtown Athens within easy walking distance of nearby restaurants as well as the Iconic 40 Watt Club. Creature Comforts puts out numerous very good year round and seasonal brews. My favorites are their Classic City Lager and their Tropicalia India Pale Ale. A friend who lives in town knows I generally hate IPAs, but recommended it nevertheless. I'm glad he did. Once I tried it, I ordered it at lots of places around town. Food is not served, but food trucks set up shop on the grounds often from what I'm told, and there was a food truck on site when we visited on a Sunday afternoon. The tap room is very nice with lots of seating, and their is a nice, spacious covered patio for those who enjoy sitting outdoors. The staff were welcoming and friendly. It's a good place I will happily return to when I'm in Athens again next year. Cheers!

I like this place. Great atmosphere. They have a farmers market on certain nights. Live music. I like how they run a tab for you as soon as you get there. Makes it easy. I had a soda. Strawberry habanero. I liked the little bite at the end. I'm a fan

Really not a fan of having to do street parking, the chaos of entering the establishment, that they take your card even before you go in, and the lack of menus available to select your beer. Beer is also almost triple the price of the other breweries. The beer is good, but I would opt for somewhere else.

August 23, 2020 After visiting Fainting Goat Vineyard last month--the owner is a partner in this brewery---it only made sense to pay tribute to his ownership interest in Creature Comforts Brewing while we were visiting Athens. Upon entering our host asked for a credit card at the greeting table to minimize contact during COVID times, which was good. Our host led us to a table outside on a hot summer afternoon and we ordered a couple of IPAs: I had the Lupulous,and Nicole the Tropicalia. The outdoor seating area is fantastic with several tables under an amazing wooden canopy. There is also a large beer hall indoors which was not currently being utilized. The beers were great and helped us develop an appetite for dinner. Look forward to coming here again to try some of the other offerings.

Just like the sign says- GOOD COLD BEER. Perfect for groups! If you walk in and go to the back bar, you are able to "make your own" beer and add flavoring to it- really fun!

Does Creature Comforts have food offerings or do they have a food truck(s)?

Hola! Hopefully you guys see this in time. But I will be driving through Athens tomorrow but it is before the brewery opens.…

Five Points Bottle Shop has an excellent selection. Can not guarantee all because some beer is Brewery only releases. Athena is not.

Have you ever made an ale or beer without using hops in it? I have a severe allergy to hops. It could be a non alcohol beer , but taste like beer.

Aubrey, Technically without hops you don't have beer but rather a carbonated malted beverage. Hops… Read more

I took a quick sip of the Tropicalia and hated it, but I hate hoppy beers so there was really no shocker there.

At first I was a tad annoyed at the cost, but hey...picking up a kid from UGA and we were splitting…read moreit - she's worth it. But oh man, we have at least 4 meals off of this plate of nachos, so they can have my $24 anytime. This is one of the best plates of nachos I have ever had, and I eat mexican a lot if you look at my reviews. I think they make their chips as they are thicker than most, but have an amazing actual flavor, and the toppings are ABUNDANT. This was carne asada and it was absolutely delish. The bartender greeted us when we walked in, showed us where to order and to pick a seat inside or on the cute little patio. They brought the food out within 10 minutes and we chowed. Others around us had margarita buckets and pitchers of beer, so plenty of options. Someone was raving about a pickle margarita...next trip that is on my list. Super clean, very friendly, great food, and it is labeled vegetarian and gluten free on the menu for those of us who need that info. I will most definitely be back.

I came to Paloma during a weekend trip to Athens. The outside area with the large screen and…read moremultiple games playing at once is a whole vibe. We ordered a pretty big spread of food including the dip trio, a few tacos, the brisket quesadilla, and some wings. The peach bourbon wings have a great flavor. I actually preferred those to the truffalo. The dip trio was great. The guac was very fresh and creamy. The queso had small chunks of peppers that I liked. I can see the appeal of this place for parents and students alike.
