Top notch experience every time! Great service. Super friendly, cozy atmosphere. Great beer. Great entertainment choices throughout the week!

Nice place to hang out and catch up with friends or your significant other. My husband and I went for a beer and enjoyed the casual, relaxing atmosphere. He wished his was colder but mine was just right. The bartender was very nice and helpful. He even offered two samples when I asked him which beers he recommends based on what I normally drink (Blue Moon and Landshark). There was a food truck on the premises but we didn't try them. Maybe next time. It's in a great location and parking was easy, on premises. Check them out when in Downtown Suffolk!

Another 4.5 star review! Awesome beer selection. We happened to stop in before another event close by. There was live music which is a plus and a food truck. Chill vibe. We'd definitely go back

Haven't been back since it was re-named! Plenty of room to allow kids and dogs to roam free. They allow our furbabies in the brewery! Had a flight and I thoroughly enjoyed them all! I especially liked the beenut butter beer! They have scheduled food trucks available as well. You can street park or turn in where the owl painting is and park in their parking lot as well.

We've been coming to this spot even when it was brick & mortar. It's a good local brewery and nice to go to close to home for a beer. This was actually our first time to visit when they changed the name/ownership to nansemond brewing station. The space is still nice and big and they have a good selection beers on tap. I actually really like 2 beers they had and I'm usually not a beer drinker. I love the fact that they have events and local artists come so there is always something happening. There is also a good selection of restaurants close by that you can order from and they will walk over to deliver it to you. We met Scott who was helping us select the beers and gave us samples. He was super friendly and definitely had that southern hospitality personality. When your in Suffolk, be sure to check out this brewing station for a cold beer, you won't be disappointed. The friendly staff alone is worth coming back for. We will be back for sure. Support local businesses!!

Hubs Beenut Brown Ale

This is such a neat little brewery. They had a lot of good beers in a friendly, comfortable space. I SO enjoyed the Hubs Beenut Butter brown ale. It's possibly the perfect expression of a hyper-local specialty brew. A peanut-butter ale from the peanut capital of the world. It has a wonderful, smooth peanut flavor, without heaviness, and such wonderful drinkablity. A definite winner, and must try on your visit. They don't have food, but they do have some local takeout menus available in the brewery, and you're welcome to bring food in. There is a great soul food restaurant directly across the street that we really enjoyed with the beer. They also have a nice outdoor space that you can enjoy. Suffolk is a little far afield for me, as we live in Ocean View, but decided to give them a try on the way home from a trip to Charlotte, and very glad we did. If you enjoy great local beer and live in western Tidewater, this needs to be a regular stop. We will definitely be back when in the area!

I was grabbing food nearby and noticed this new brewery. I love discovering new breweries so I decided to check it out. As they had just opened for the day, I had the place all to myself, which was nice because I had a great chat with the owner. The owner told me that this brewery used to called "Brick & Mortar" which I had heard of, but didn't get a chance to visit. They hired a new brewer and changed their name to Nansemond Brewing Station. Owner was really friendly: he gave me a rundown about their brewery and the different beers they had on tap for the day. Their list was on the short side at the time of my visit (7 beers) but he did say more will be added soon. I sampled a few and I really did enjoy what I tasted (loved the Firefly IPA)! I would much rather a short list of tasty options then a longer one of so-so options. There are several restaurants within walking distance, including one right next door, so bring food (which I did) to eat with your drink(s). Looking forward to coming back and bringing friends!

Wide selection of craft beers!

Chill brewery in downtown Suffolk! Inside and outside seating! Great for just you and your Boo or a group outing!

Nansemond is one of the few gems in downtown Suffolk. Cozy atmosphere, great staff and most importantly awesome brews. Their beenut beer is a must try especially for peanut fans. They also have live music and food trucks every Friday-Sunday for a complete experience.

SWAMPGRASS!

Awesome staff and great food! Love their veggie wings and orange crushes, really all their food. I…read moreunderstand everything they make is homemade so no manufacturered junk. Atmosphere is nice and pups allowed outside, which I love. Only minor improvements I would add are fans outside because the flies are horrible in summer. Also, the outside area could be improved just a little with more comfortable seating and minor improvements to make it more cozy. Lastly, I despise the pressure of tipping in front of the server on a tablet. I like a paper check and a bill I can see before paying. It should also have a default 30% tip option because service is outstanding but you are pressured to do math right in front of them. Otherwise everything is great! Highly recommend!

Wow. I don't even know where to begin. It is so disheartening as regulars to come in and be…read moredeliberately ignored for 25 minutes, when it wasn't that busy and appropriately staffed. I mean literally NO ONE came up and talked to us for that length of time and our table was right there front and center. My family looked forward to coming there every Tuesday night after our daughter's therapy for about a year. Two weeks ago my daughter was even greeted by her own name ( by the waitress who was obviously not present tonight). Tonight After 25 mins of being completely ignored, another family was seated next to us and a plate of fries was given to that family and the waiter took their order! Unbelievable. I am so sad to have to make a review like this for a place we used to love to regularly attend. Do better.

Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so with that being said let's begin!.. This is a great brewery, more of a local brewery than some of the others I visited recently. This has more of a neighborhood feel, more locals than anything else... This place has food options, I posted a picture of the food options which are very reasonable! I haven't tried anything on this visit so stay tuned for my next visit to tell you about the food experience. I will say the IPA Pelican Hook at a 7.5 alcohol content was quite potent, especially after 2 beers.. Definitely a place I would recommend!. The lady behind the counter was pleasant and welcoming as soon as I walked in, as a matter of fact we walked in at the same time and she held the door for me and welcomed me in after I told her this was my first visit here!. There was also a gentleman that welcomed me in as well, he asked me what type of beer I preferred.. I told him I prefer IPA's and he recommended the one he had available at the time, he also stated there was another IPA he was brewing and it would be available in a short time, oh and while it's on my mind he said there was another beer that would be available at a later date ( I can't remember exactly what the date was but I'll definitely check it out when I get a chance to return. So I'm definitely looking forward to returning and trying out this other IPA!. Stay tuned!!!....

Staff is amazing, try the wings... They are made in a pizza oven and they were unbelievable!…read moreReally cool staff, extremely walking. Loved it.
