The woman behind the counter was extremely rude. Like really rude. I bought a 750ml bottle of Crown Royal vanilla and it had a price of $50 + Normally its 25 to 30 bucks. If you're able to go across the river, you can get whatever you need at the liquor store in Easton. Its maybe a mile away. The employees there are friendly and the prices are better as well. read more

A really TERRIBLE place. PLEASE AVOID. Have gone here over the past 10 years as an Easton resident for a bottle of wine when other places are closed. In truth, was always a kind of creepy, dark, wonder- what- this- is -kind -of -establishment - with only a single employee and a very high turnover. This past weekend, after calling repeatedly - (4 times) to ask if they were still open (its the kind of place you imagine will be shut down at any time) and no one answering, I made the mistake of taking a chance and walking over there. At the counter, with no one there, I dialed the phone # again - curious. The only employee, finally came over and I asked if they were still open. She clicked her nails on the counter and gave me "a look". I explained, that I had called repeatedly and no one answered - wondering if store was open. She only glared at me and then, refused to serve me, calling me rude. I have never had anyone call me rude, ever. I am a working class person, always respectful of others, regardless of race, gender, etc. When I asked if she could please, accept my apology and allow me to purchase this bottle of wine, as it was for a friend's birthday at my apartment (friends were actually waiting for me} she became even more absurd and nasty. Cleary not a stable person - my main point here. Please avoid. Worst shopping experience I have ever had! read more

These guys just opened up in April of 2011 and thank goodness. They are primarily an excellent beer store, with a pretty wide and varied selection, but as the name implies, they also sell wine and liquor. The fun part is that they are also a tap room with some beers on tap that are pretty rare and hard to come by. You can belly-up to the bar, or sit at one of the dozen or so cafe tables. You'll also find a couple of sleepy St. Bernards lying next to your table, or under the baby grand in the center of the room. There's occasionally some live music, and they schedule beer brewing classes every so often. I live just across the bridge in PA, where the laws and taxes relating to beer are utterly ridiculous, so I am always happy to wander over the bridge for some beersanity. Even on blustery nights. read more

100% the best bar I've ever been to. Staff is super helpful and friendly, selection is amazing, and the prices are unbelievably low. Wish I lived in the area so I could come here more often. UPDATE: I've now made the trip out to this location a second time when visiting the East Coast, after moving to Seattle. It remains an impressive beer bar, even in comparison to the much larger set of craft beer establishments in Seattle. read more

Free Bridge Wine & Spirits - a variety of beer taps - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Phillipsburg, New Jersey

(3.25) ~ pretty good overall selection of craft beers. NOTE: Their Online List of Beers does NOT mean they currently have them, it just means they can order them if they don't, so I would call them first before trekking over, especially if you're far away;)lol read more

Price gouging due to COVID. 750ml Tito's $28 750ml Absolute $25. That covers everything you need to know.

Very good selection of craft and microbrews on tap and you can get a paddle of 4 beers to try out in case you can't decide on one beer. The other day however I had a very bad experience with a friend as we mentioned to the owner that it was his birthday and without asking she basically poured him out a "birthday beer" which was a huge glass with the equivalent of ~12 beers which was pretty much forced upon him. Just because the owner is a bit of a 19 year old girl as far as partying is concerned doesn't mean everyone is. read more

A liquor store with a solid craft beer selection AND a bar? It can't be true, not in NJ!? The bar has a good rotation of about 15 beers on tap. When I was last there about 3 months ago, they were adding another section onto the bar, which will be a nice addition. Strange clients coming in and out of the front door, which doesn't help, but the beer somewhat makes up for it. Keep bringing in the good selection of beers! read more

Craft beer on draft, cold craft beers in the fridge, and even more craft beer on the shelves, don't mind if I do. An amazing selection on draft (over 20 selections) and even more in the fridges + wine, ciders and liquors. Friendly staff and a pool table, what more could you ask for ? read more

A delightfully strange combination of craft beer bar, liquor store and dog food supply store, Free Bridge consistently has one of the best craft beer selections in the Lehigh Valley. To-go prices are great, along with $5 growler night (!) on Thursdays. Chill atmosphere is supplemented with the occaional mountain dog or three relaxing on the couches or under the pool table. One of my favorite craft beer destinations in the area. I just read some of the comments on here about the birthday challenge, and I just want to make some things clear: The birthday challenge is for regulars, and it's about 7 pints in a large Chimay glass, which is free if the person finishes it. It's 100% voluntary (I've never done it), usually needs to be asked for, and you're not allowed to do it unless you have a DD or taxi. I've seen a bunch of them done, never once under any pressure from bartenders or owner (makes sense, since it involves them giving away a TON of high-priced beer for free). The owner is a lovely woman who doesn't drink hard alcohol, so I have no idea who the 19-year-old party girl described was, but I've never seen anyone like that working there. I'm a regular, and I've literally never seen anything like what that person described. My advice: Don't drink 7 pints of beer anywhere if you don't want to get drunk. But if you're one of those people who want to drink a ton of beer on your birthday, the ones you'll get at FreeBridge will at least be excellent craft brews. Side note: If you're at all into craft spirits or meads, you won't find a better selection in the region. They have a full line of a more artisanal beverages than anyone could want. read more

Decent variety of craft beers by the bottle and on tap. Love that you can get a growler filled from their selection of beers on tap. Just found a Troegs Scratch Beer series there on tap that I had only previously seen at the Troegs Brewery. Check them out on Thursday nights when they have growler specials. read more

Great Vibe Here..., and also non pretentious clientele.. can''t speak too well to the selection of wine and liquor, living in NYS, I am not accustomed to shopping for wine and liquor and beer in the same store, but the beer selection is strong. There is a bar there too...Once the service I received was kinda weird, but that a story that I won't reveal here read more

So I've been frequenting this place for the last 4 or so years. I've met many people I am now good friends with because of this place. I say the rest with a heavy heart. It has fallen mightly because as much as the employees care they are constantly hampered by an absent owner. Any criticism is responded by outright anger and resentment as if you should be grateful for even being allowed to drink at "her" bar. A fact that is constantly reminded when said advice is offered, even when asked for. The local beers that brought me as well as others are sparse, the new craft is now Coors Light and Yuengling! The things that slowly defined the place are leaving. It's a shame as is the fact that speaking anything about this outside the bar will get you banned. Yes the owner will show up as a drunk, petulant child and ban you from ever coming again. For an older woman she should have learned humility by now one would think. Bar patron beware, choose wisely upon entering or my advice just go elsewhere. read more

I remember the white gloves and whistles vaguely, but I clearly recall my uncle (rip) telling how he would stand on the manhole cover in the middle of the road and direct traffic prior to the stoplight being installed at the 3 way intersection where Northampton and S and N Main streets meet on the jersey side of the bridge. I don't remember if this building facing that manhole cover was a restaurant or a hotel at the time, but it's history is both storied and checkered, including a strip club and being burnt down to the ground. But this under-decorated, laid-back, and earthy-feeling watering hole would have been the perfect spot to finish off an 8 hour shift of directing traffic. There were 31 beers on tap last night. Plenty of seasonal holiday selections, as well as some intriguing choices that were fun to taste test. Barkeep was very helpful while reviewing the list of choices detailed on an iPad. There is something for everyone. I ended up with a delightful holiday Rude Elf and my brothers selected a double IPA and a 5oz pour of a bitter beer. All three were great! A coin operated pool table sits in the middle of the room next to the coolers, so we played a quick game. Actually, it was really quick. Brother #2 ran the table his first time up. I think he's been practicing. What surprised me was how small the bar area actually is, and how large the packaged goods/retail space is. I guess it really is a store first, a bar second, and a feed store third. (dry dog food is stacked up for sale in the back!). I didn't notice if they had any other beverages available (wine, etc) as we were focused on the brews, but that would probably mix up the clientele a bit. Plus, with all the wine and liquors available, taste testing wine would seem to make sense. Maybe we'll go back and have a paddle tonight and check out the interior of the boxcar that's currently roped off...lots of memories in there! read more

Nice selection and variety of beers. Very eager to help customers! This place will become a reoccurring place

Great craft brew selection. Very good deals on growler refills. Met the owner behind the counter, very pleasant.

Always thought of this place as a hidden gem but now I'm not too sure and i can happily say that I will never be attending free bridge and spirits ever again. I have been coming here for well over a year and always loved the atmosphere up until I witnessed a disgusting act by the owner. A bartender who just recently lost a close friend of hers was telling a customer about how devasted she was about the incident and how motorcycles are so dangerous as her boss approached her and told her that she needed to keep her baggage at home and tried accusing her of using her friends death as a sympathy card to collect more tips. I have never witnessed something so disgusting and insensitive. I watched the bartender cry and walk out. What a fall from grace. Will not be recommending any time in the future. read more

I am sitting at the bar inside FreeBridge at least once a week for the past three years. The Wardell Pub is an unpretentious and welcoming Craft Beer bar located inside the FreeBridge Wine & Spirits store. The retail store has a wide selection of craft beers (as well as the Macros) and also wine and liquor as the name suggests. The bar has a great craft selection with 31 rotating taps available at a reasonable price ($4.50 at time of my review.) The bartenders and owner are very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. There is usually a fun atmosphere here whether it be lively conversations, game shows/comedy on the TV, or play at the pool table and Galaga/Ms. Pac Man arcade game. Only snacks (chips, cookies, jerky) are sold so bring your favorite food or have delivered. There is also outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. Thursday is $5 growler fill night after purchase of two draughts. Good people, great beer and they are always open, well until 2:00 AM at least (NO liquor sales after 10PM.) Loads of easy, free parking behind the building and just a short walk from downtown Easton across the Northampton St. Free Bridge. read more

Awesome spot. Right upon walking through the door you're greeted with great staff and sometimes friendly puppies. Atmosphere is very laid back with a HUGE selection of craft beers from local breweries. Staff doesn't hesitate to help and the owner takes great pride in her store keeping it clean and very tastefully decorated. There's a reason why it made the list of greatest bars in NJ and it shows in every detail. read more

awesome prices and selection of beer ! the liquor was a little low stocked the last time I was there but they had two giant adorable dogs here that made up for that. read more

Small place but great service on hard to find beers. They are always helpful and friendly. They are not the normal brand beers you find in a bar. Looing to try something new this is the place. Also have some wine and hard stuff on the side if you need something. read more

Great place to get a pint, case or six pack. Great craft beer selection on tap, they're always changing it up. It's right over the free bridge from Easton. Buy a beer and sit out along the river, or have a seat at the bar. Interesting how it's a liquor/beer/wine store with a bar and food. read more
