A beautiful mediocrity. I did my research. I saw the beautiful outside, I know the brand name. Was excited about the outdoor area and arcade games. Actuality: - It was raining. That put a kaput on the outside area! - The closest door the the parking lot led us into a private party (a birthday for a one year old) AWKWARD - I love the painted outside of the building- looking for some funk on the inside. Disappointed. Mainly posters of their beers framed. - They did not have their AI beer on tap or in cans for sale - No arcade games! My 11 year old was super disappointed - No food/no food trucks (BOO!) - 2 guys up front one on the mic and one with a guitar playing hit songs from the 90's (me likey!) With everything posted above, it lead to a very quick stop at this location. There wasn't much us our our family.

I love everything about Night Shift in Everett. Amazing vibes, great beers and sometimes live music! What can go wrong?! I'm a sour beer girly and the bartender told me this was one of his favorites on the menu. I loved his helpfulness and he was 100% right. DELICIOUS! My friend had a N/A drink, I love that they had some options for that. We sat outside that evening and it was a great time. People around us were fun and chatting. Babies and dogs were in the attendance and that's always fun. The only drawback is a small parking lot and minimal street parking. Might have to walk a little but that's the charm of the place.

Salsa Night
Jenny T.

Didn't come here for a beer/drinks/food, but for salsa night haha! There was a live Latinx band which was amazing, people were dancing and it was fun- only thing I will say, if you come here during winter, this place is heated LOL so coming here in a sweater for salsa dancing was not ideal. They have some delicious smelling food here too- I LOVE arepas and these looked the real deal. I came here after dinner for dancing lol but otherwise I could've eaten a tonnnnn LOL based on how good it smelt (AREPAS= fave food in the world lol if you haven't tried already, you MUST). The place is really cute too hehe :)

Cider and beer

We stopped by on a Saturday night, brought some takeout food, and had a nice chill night. We tried four different beers which were all great! Service was friendly and fast. They had a live band which was fun. The indoor space is very cute and there were plenty of spaces to sit. It looked like there was a small parking lot but plenty of spaces on the street, even though it was pretty busy inside. Overall it was great beer and a fun eclectic vibe! We will definitely be back!

Whirlpool,  a very refreshing pale ale New England style!

Night Shift Brewing... definitely like the sound of this brewery and themes with the owl. Time and opportunity only allowed for us to try one beer here but I am grateful to have done the one. For this brewery we had the Whirlpool pale ale New England style. This light, fruity and citrusy beer was a fun one to have. Balanced with hops in a very appropriate way this beer proved to be very refreshing the day Steve sat down to enjoy it on a very toasty, warm day. Definitely a nice beer to cool off to.

Flights are always available

Nightshift always delivers a good time. They recently turfed their outdoor patio so it's great for dogs. They usually have a food truck on rotation for an easy meal. And they have events almost every night of the week. Most importantly, they have a wide range of beers so there's something for everyone (even wine!)

Flights and friends
Nancy H.

Super cool place. I was surprised that they never got busy while we were there. I overheard a few people say that they were upset that there wasn't a food truck that night, so that may be the reason why it wasn't busy. Their atmosphere is super open and brewery-like. They make it very clear that they are inclusive and welcome all. I loved that. They have a wide variety of beer and all of them were good. I did a flight and got to try quite a few. Their Nite Lite was my fave. I also really love their Hoot seltzers.

Hanging out with my friend, anxiously awaiting my first meal in Boston.
Benjamin C.

A friend took me here for a late dinner after I arrived in Boston for the first time. Beer and food were both good - I got the roast beef ciabatta sandwich, fries, and the cherry cobbler. The cobbler was my favorite item I ordered. The atmosphere was also good. A large, lively venue that can accommodate a lot of people. If I lived in Boston, this would be a good place to come hang out with friends.

Flight - Nite Lite, Whirlpool, You Da Mom, Fluffier (ig: tmfoodies)
Tiffany D.

My first brewery experience! This place has such a chill atmosphere - plenty of seating indoor and outdoor, which is also dog friendly! I had someone help me pick out a flight based on my preferences which was super helpful because I'm pretty new to IPA's. We ended up going Nite Lite, Whirlpool, You Da Mom, and Fluffier. Whirlpool is one of their flagship drinks for a very good reason (it was the tastiest for me!). There are food trucks here every day, which is super nice to have something to munch on when you are here (Bonetown Burgers was there when I was here). There are also tons of board games to play but overall, really great drinks and a really chill atmosphere!

Patio seating
Katherine W.

I had an awesome time at Night Shift. I reserved patio seating for a party of 5 at 12:15 p.m. and was allowed in a bit earlier. It was incredibly hot out so thankfully there were umbrellas at a lot of the tables. Night Shift is currently doing a QR menu that you can scan. Afterwards you text them your order and they do a contactless drop off. They were very good about bringing pitchers of water (and giving water to the dogs that were hanging around too). I ordered the Traffic Cone and Tea Party; both were on tap. A lot of their other beers are in cans only. I also got some pre-packaged Kalahari Jerky. This was a great experience that was both safe and sanitary!

Tuna nachos
Teresa C.

After attempting to find a gluten free menu for one of the members in our group we decided to eat here where there were only a couple items gluten free. We got in very quickly. The manager, Benjamin was fantastic, singing to us as we enjoyed his awesome playlist! Our waiter was just as great, attentive and honest about the food and drinks! The food came out in record time and was fantastic as were the drinks! Steak tips were cooked perfectly, the gluten free salmon plate was amazing and the tuna nachos were something different and tasted fantastic! All in all, a great experience!!

Ask the Community - Night Shift Brewing

Can you bring outside food and snacks into the brewery if they are not from the food trucks there?

Yes! We allow you to bring your own food or order takeout to be delivered to the brewery.

If I've got a group of 8 friends meeting for a mini reunion, will we be able to sit together at 4 pm on Saturday for beers and yakking? Do I need some sort of a reservation?

It's first come first served if I'm not mistaking.

Is there parking?

Yes there's a private lot and free street parking

Are dogs allowed inside or just outside?

Just outside

Do you fill growlers that aren't branded by you?

Over time, we phased out growler sales at Night Shift. As we've grown, our capacity to can and bottle our beer has greatly increased. Growlers are convenient, but through scientific testing, our quality assurance team confirmed that cans and bottles… 

Do they give sampler trays? How much does it cost approx?

The flights are $10! Pretty good too!

Now that MA joined the rest of the nation allowing outside growlers to be filled will Nightshift fill my insulated Klean Kanteen growler? I really am looking forward to less waste from a unique growler from each brewery.

Hi Ryan, Thanks for reaching out. We actually don't fill or sell growlers at the Night Shift…

Great lively spot with excellent variety!…read more Trillium is such a fun spot to meet up with people. The atmosphere is definitely loud, but it has a great, lively energy that makes for a fun night out. One of the best parts about this brewery is that they distill their own spirits, so you have plenty of great options even if you aren't in the mood for beer. They don't offer traditional flights, but you can ask for two half-pours (about 5 oz each) to try a couple of different things. Here is what we tried: Out of This World: This mixed drink tasted like an upscale mai tai. It was beautifully cloudy and made with real passion fruit puree. Delicious! Coffee Pot & Kettle Stout: Absolute creamy goodness. This was my personal favorite, though I usually lean toward stouts anyway. Fort Point IPA (with Citra): My husband is the big IPA lover, and I usually attempt a taste with a lot of apprehension since I don't care for super hoppy beers. However, this one was surprisingly good! It felt more like a fruity, juicy hazy IPA. The listed pine notes were very subtle and gave it a really nice, balanced finish.

Great beer selection, solid food options and an excellent staff…read more Interior space was quite crowded with minimal to no space at the tables and bar...even on a Monday early evening. I would expect the outdoor space would come in handy once the weather warms up. Conveniently located right off of Seaport Blvd. surrounded by some other good food and dessert options. Lots of parks in the area, including Fan Pier Park, which offers some spectaculay views of the Boston Skyline...particularly after dark. Metered Street Parking was actually manageable, especially in the later post 6-pm midweek hours in the Fort Hill Square Area. Meters are in effect through 8pm with a 2-hour maximum, so if you arrive after 6pm and feed the meter until 8pm, you are all set for the night! The South Station (Red) T Station is also nearby. Both options are a short walk to Fan Pier Park. There are also lots of garages available in the immediate area as well.

Downeast Cider House is located in East Boston, an area of Boston that I have never been before…read more But I had discovered Downeast Cider at The Big E (the state fair in Springfield, MA). Downeast Cider makes a special hard cider flavor every year for the state fair and this year's is the Big E Cream Puff. Last year they made the cider donut, which was very popular and so they brought it back again this year, but as a seasonal fall flavor. One employee told me that she didn't even know the flavor for the state fair until a few weeks before hand because it just takes a good deal of effort to create the right flavored cider for the state fair. I really loved the Big E Cream Puff cider so much that the next day after the state fair, we ended up visiting Downeast Cider's tap room (which is dog friendly and you are also allowed to bring your own food. Please note that Downeast Cider does not serve food and well you shouldn't drink on an empty stomach). My husband and I came on a Saturday afternoon, around 1:15 pm (we took the train so I am not sure about how the parking situation is like but I did see some street parking within a reasonable walking distance). We were greeted at the entrance and given a token. The tap room does not do full pours and only do flights (sad because I really wanted a full glass of that Big E Cream Puff). After looking over the list of drinks available, we ended up getting: For my Flight: Cream Puff, Cider Donut, Pumpkin Blend, Blackberry Pie. The cream puff is what brought us here and it really did taste like a liquid form of a cream puff. You could taste the cream and the pâte à choux (or the choux pastry that houses the cream/ whipped cream filling). I loved both the Cider Donut and Pumpkin Blend but wasn't a fan of the Blackberry Pie, but my husband did. For my Husband's: Honey Crisp, Apple Pie, Imperial Mango, Straw Rhubarb- My husband liked all of the flavors but his favorite was the Imperial Mango. I really liked the apple pie, very nice and sweet, honestly tasted just like a liquid form of an apple pie. I wasn't really a fan of the other flavors. ------------------------------ (Total= For 2 Flights, $29.96) After we finished our flights, we were invited to do a small tasting of a new cider that this cidery is working on. So we were led upstairs to try an IPA Imperial Mango. It had more alcohol than the Imperial Mango. We filled out a brief questionnaire to provide our feedback based on smell, taste, color, etc. I didn't really like it and my husband thought it was okay but preferred the Imperia Mango that he had earlier from his flight. The employee that was giving us the tasting told us that they generally do these tastings (for feedback on new flavors they are creating) on weekends in case you are wondering if you can try a new potential flavor on your next visit. Also the employee helping us told us that it can be pretty challenging to create flavors that taste just as good as the food item they are trying to use. She told me that with the Cream Puff, it took a lot of time to really get the flavors to taste the way it did, as I had told her that was my favorite flavor and I loved how smooth it was. Overall, I enjoyed our visit and so glad we came out to visit Downeast Cider's tap room and would come again if I was visiting Boston.

very chill outdoor space. no food. great service. I like the blueberry one! more!…read more I enjoyed the brewery and the space. your guy was friendly.

Anyway we were excited having never been before! The space is not only huge, but also there's a whole another floor upstairs with the event room called the "Squirrel Den" - where they had the comedy show!! Downstairs they have plenty of seating plus the bar and even live music. You can also see the barrels of the whole brewery which adds to the ambience with the metallic shine. The comedy show was fun - a series of standup comics - fun night! The stage wall is essentially a mural of a bunch of beer cans art so it really compliments the space. There is a bar at the back too and restrooms within the room itself so very convenient. Downstairs there's also a shuffle board where we spent some time playing afterwards. Restrooms downstairs too plus a water filling station which I was very pleasantly surprised to see. The hubs ordered the blood orange cloud candy beer - he thought it was nice a metallic IPA, buzzy. Our friend had several drinks - not sure all the names but one of them was the Oktoberfest. Service was good, one of the comedians actually checked us into the room. And he even graciously took our photo for plus. He was hilarious! Overall a good time and we'll be back for sure!
