So, this review is strictly on the food however, since it is a brewery, I want to give some coverage on the beer and some on the ambulance. Went on a Sunday after Reading Phillies game. Walking in the brewery the inside is very dark away from the bar. Sat outside. It's a pretty big area with lots of seating. The bartender, her name is Felicia. She was really good, but she was challenged because she was doing a lot of the work and there were other waitresses who were kind of going through the motions. Had a few beers and honestly, they were pretty average. However, the smash burgers are dynamite. But for me, my wife and my son with the tip was around $80 which seemed like a lot. I don't wanna be too harsh because the food is really good, but the beers need to improve along with the service. Big props to Felicia, though who held it down. read more

White Iverson got us extra Bleu Cheese. He also got us amazing beers. Will be back.

Always a fun place to hit up with the boys. I wouldn't say this is a chill spot, per se. It turns into a madhouse starting around happy hour. It's kind of one of those places where you walk in and it's impossible to tell immediately what you're supposed to do. "Do I seat myself? Is there a host? Do I order at the counter?" Anyone with anxiety who has never been there before may immediately want to turn around and get the hell out of there. Since you do seat yourself here, your best bet is to kind of scan the room and hopefully spot an open table. Once you've secured a piece of valuable real estate, it's smooth sailing from there. A server will inevitably find you (tables are close to each other so a server will eventually walk in your vicinity), and get you started with one of their signature dishes. From my experience, the fan favorites are the wings, flatbread pizzas, and popcorn. Yes, they have what I can only describe as "artisanal" popcorn, coming in such variations as Parmesan Truffle, White Cheddar Bacon, and the timeless Salted Caramel. At Schaylor, wings are oven baked, which certainly is a method. I'm a fried wings guy at heart, since the crispness of the skin is just on another level, but I can appreciate a good baked wing. As for the sauces, wow, just so on point. They really go for a nice blend of hot & sweet, with flavors like Kickin' Bourbon, Mango Habanero, Thai Chili, and Honey Sriracha. For the masochists, you can go for traditional hot wings, and even a tier higher with Molten Lava. There's no sweetness here, just pure white hot capsaicin. The sauce is red like a pepper, but trust me when I say it tastes like literal fire. Popcorn is usually on 75% of tables. These sweet little corn clusters are suitable for any group makeup - a couple on a date, family with kids, coworkers at happy hour - perhaps the better question to ask yourself is, "When is popcorn NOT a good fit?" It's the appetizer that doesn't eat like an appetizer. If you're one of those people who sees Crab Dip and thinks, "Nah, too heavy," popcorn is the perfect alternative. And yes, the pizza. Well, what can I say? They come out as big, slabs of melty goodness. Tons of variety here, anything from three cheese vegetarian to meat lovers with pepperoni, bacon, and ham. A lot of pigs died for this. There is also a crab pizza with red onion, cherry tomatoes, garlic aioli, and Old Bay that, as a frequenter of Maryland and self-proclaimed crab cake enthusiast, I desperately need to try. At night, it becomes more beer oriented. You'll still see people indulging in popcorn until close, but the action shifts from the outer tables near the front of the building to the back room. This is where space opens up, people have more room to float around and schmooze. In the back you'll also find a pool table (and the bathrooms, too). One area I haven't personally experienced is the WAY back, aka outside. There's a nice patio setup out there with cornhole and other fun things to do. I think I saw some pictures of an inflatable bouncy castle. So yeah, always a good time here, especially in the warmer months. Spacious parking lot, but even that will fill up at peak hours. I don't know what you'd do in that situation since there's no street parking. Park in an adjacent lot maybe? Hey, the Excitement Adult Superstore is right next door. Just be warned, a visit there could totally change the direction of the evening. read more

Stopped in yesterday for the first time. Beer is solid (better than average) food was solid (slightly above average) and service was excellent (both food and beers were out quickly and the bartender/waitress checked on us frequently) We'll definitely be returning :) read more

This place has A LOT going for it. They have a gorgeous outdoor space, great staff, are extremely dog and child friendly. It was such a pleasure to be here. BUT the food is pretty disappointing. Kids got wings that were dry and kind yuck. I had a salad that liked bad tastes like something served on an airplane. Don't try the beer because I had to drive. Might try it again, but the poor food dropped this review from a strong 5 to a mid range 3. read more

This was my first time here and the beer was great! They had several options outside, with even more inside. I got the pretzels with beer cheese, and the pretzels (3), were so good, although the beer cheese sorta tasted like a mediocre soup. I look forward to going back and trying something different next time! read more

We had our engagement party at Schaylor Brewing Company. From the start of planning, Falicia was amazing, the communication was easy and everything went so smoothly. The day of our event, the staff was amazing and was able to handle 85 people with no problem! Emma organized everything perfectly and was super friendly with everyone. I would highly recommend using Schaylor Brewing Company for any of your events. A great venue and great staff! read more

Right off the major thoroughfare, so not tough to find. Parking was tighter than I would have expected, but not a problem. Lots of seating inside, with just great vibes going on inside. Everyone seemed to be having a wonderful time when we went on a Saturday afternoon, and the staff was friendly enough. Our waitress was dealing with an obviously difficult table and I think she was getting a bit fried, but she clearly was doing her best in a tough situation, so I call that part of the meal a healthy scratch. The beer was, honestly, way better than I expected. There are tons of breweries everywhere now, and I've learned to temper my expectations going in to most new breweries. Not that they're bad, but just not always what I'd hoped. That wasn't the case here. The flight I had was reasonably priced, the beers were fun and creative, and all were well expedited. The blonde stout (called the Damn Daniel) and the sour (can't remember the name, but I ordered it because it was a collab with a local juice business) stood out as being unlike any beer I've had. Both were incredible and I'd go back here for them alone. The reason for four instead of five stars... the food was fine. Just... fine. It felt like the joy of creation and craft that went into the beers just wasn't quite there on the food. I'd eat here again, and probably will, but I'll be going for the beer and maybe sticking to some shared apps for the table. read more

Schaylor Brewing - Beer flight including (left to right) a sour, a stout, a blonde stout, and a hoppy lager. - Breweries Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

Large parking lot and a fairly large indoor area with a pool table too. Bar area seating and dining seating around. There is also an outdoor seating area and looks like they may have like music since there is a stage set up. They do serve food and there were about 11 beers on tap. Friendly staff as well. We ordered a flight of beer [4] Upstream - this was actually very light and doesn't taste like a cream Ale at all. You get a very small hint in the smell but the beer itself doesn't tasty creamy at all. Lunar Eclipse - Much lighter than a blue moon, not as much citrus, wheat or orange. The orange does come through pretty well though throughout and after. Pineapple Express - for a DIPA, it was not super hoppy and you do get a great pineapple flavor. Surprisingly very good considering I'm not an IPA fan. Sippin with Sid - This was my favorite by far, it was not as sweet as I anticipated and tasted a bit like a cookie dough. I really enjoyed it and it smells sweeter than it tasted. We ordered a shareable Mushroom Flatbread pizza and a Cavatappi Mac N' Beer Cheese with Lump crab, jalapeno and old bay as add on. Both were really good. The Flatbread edges were a tad burnt as rhey were thinner while the inner dough was a little thicker and slightly undercooked but loved the flavor. The mac n cheese was SO GOOD. I decided to be weird and put my Mac N Cheese on my pizza, and I personally loved it. We got small samples of the Goddamit Kyle [Fruity Pebbles Wheat Sour w/ Strawberry, Raspberry, Bluerbby and Lactos [actually pretty sour but do you get the fruity pebbles taste and a Strawberry jam smell], the Kenny Sour [Blueberry, Peach, vanilla, dragonfruit marshmallow sour which was light and you barely get any hints of the flavors described], and the S'moreo Speedwagon which does taste like smores without being super heavy or overly sweet as a Stout. I liked it here and would definitely come back! read more

Food is amazing. Drinks are phenomenal. Service is always good. We come here as often as we can!

This is clearly a family owned business trying to stay in business in trying times. They dont have enough staff so be prepared to wait... the food is served on disposable plates. Drinks are good. The wings are outstanding- would visit again just for them! The flatbread pizza was not good, my husband ordered the cheesesteak and it had no flavor. It looked good enough, i asked for a bite and said... have some of my wings.... Lol....I'm not sure how meat, cheese, peppers and onions comes out bland but it sure did. He also ordered the street corn dip. No flavor. Bland and under seasoned. The crab mix they make is decent. I had the pretzel and i enjoyed it. Maybe hit or miss depending on who's is in the kitchen? I wouldn't recommend this place for service or food. More a place to hang out for apps and have some beers or drinks. read more

I live in the neighborhood and decided to try this place. After waiting for about 20 minutes the waitress finally came over and apologized and took our drink order. The place had a descent crowd, but it was not that crowded. She was busy walking around pretending to be busy. What I mean by pretending to be busy. We were sitting at the bar she saw us then avoided eye contact. Walked in and out the bar area. Talked to her coworkers that looked like they might be doing something and repeated that. We received our drinks and again she was nowhere to be found. Finally, I said, HI (to one of the 3 people behind the bar) we would like to order. After receiving our appetizer, it was about another hour and no chicken club sandwich. I figured the kitchen staff might also be walking around talking to each other. Lol I was told our ticket was punched once we received our fries, and they were working on it now after waiting and hour. Lucky she removed the sandwich from the bill. But I will not return to this location. Great food, great drinks. They even had live music which is nice. read more

waited nearly an hour for food to be prepared nothing fancy, just apps, and they came out burnt and tasted horrible. no apologies for the wait, and they missed one of our apps and charged us. NEVER will I go here again. read more

We have always liked the food here, but unfortunately our most recent visit here was beyond disappointing. We received one appetizer after an hour wait, then almost another hour waiting for food. We took our food to go, almost was tempted to cancel the order and leave without anything. Won't be coming back for a while, very sad. read more

I like how they play sports and other events on the TV, the food is really good. The waiter was really nice, great food. read more

Schaylor had everything I could ask for from a brewery- great beer, great food, prompt and friendly service, and Philly sports on TV. I was here with as part of a post wedding rehearsal dinner party. We had an out door section reserved with a catered food table. The table consisted of hummus, pizza, salad, wings, and a few other things. The food was very tasty and the staff kept it will supplied. We had one server taking drink orders from about 20 of us and she never missed a beat. She explained the beers, and made sure we were never empty handed. The beer was awesome! I had the S'moreo Speedwagon and What's Dead May Never Die (9.8%, wow). I am into heavy stouts and these two both hit the mark. There was a wide variety to try, and I would definitely go back do so. They have a large, spacious outdoor section with couches and a corn hole set. The inside is clean and well spaced. They have 2 single use bathrooms, and a lot of big TVs. read more

Stopped here for a beer after having been somewhere else so we only tried the Margherita flatbread pizza which was really good.

There was a mix- from folks playing pool to families with small kids having dinner. read more

First of all, wow! We stopped by here on a Friday evening and we're able to find a seat and order some delicious food and drinks. Not even 10 minutes after we got there the place was full! We were promptly greeted by a staff member, who was super friendly and knowledgeable about all the beer. We didn't realize they have different taps inside and outside (first timers) but our server gladly went and got our beer from outside. The beer was very good (goddammit Kyle) was a personal favorite. In fact, it was both of our favorites. What else could go well here? The FOOD! I ordered the pretzel hot dog (my two favorite things) and was blown away by a freaking hot dog! We could have stayed here and had even more drinks and will return in the future! Even if you're just passing by on 222, a quick stop off the Lancaster ave exit is all you need! read more

I love coming here! The service is always top notch and they're great at making recommendations. The food is eclectic and I've never had a bad meal. The prices are fair and the portions are perfect. The beer is by far some of the best in the area. It helps to have catchy beer names too. I love coming here in the summer and sitting outback. They have live music though out the year. Overall, great place and I highly recommend. read more

Have been frequenting their establishment for a number of years now. Enjoying the food, drink and pleasant staff at their new Lebanon location. The burgers and hot hoagies are very flavorful and well made. The onion rings and french fries are hot and crispy with a clean flavor. The beer is always a highlight of the visit. Everything is priced reasonably well. The location is easy to access and has ample parking. The elevator makes it very easy for those who can't do stairs. Highly recommend for lunch, dinner and whenever a pint is needed. read more

we came in to get a few drinks and food after work. it took them an hour to make a pizza and wings to go. I had to threaten a refund for them to serve our food. Great beer but don't expect fast turn around. read more

Great beer! I tried a Pilsner, Irish Ale and some other third one. I had a flat bread pizza which was great! I spoke with one of the bartender/brewmaster who was knowledgeable and friendly. I will definitely be coming back! read more

New opening in Lebanon. Beer very average. Service is abysmal. Had to order take out from local sushi restaurant as no one came to take our order. Very poor. Will not be returning. I believe the space is cursed as every establishment has been absolutely horrible. Bring Niko's back. Awesome food and service but that is when Brian Kent was the chef. read more

I'm not from the area but have heard great things about this place from locals so I really wanted to check it out. Shaylors is a fun and laid back atmosphere with delicious beers. I highly recommend the popcorn - when the basket originally came out I thought "there's no way we're finishing all this popcorn" but it was empty after an hour! Although we didn't order food this time, everyone else's looked and smelled delicious. I'm excited to try more of their brews! read more

Avoid at all cost. Sat at the bar. I was about to walk out after waiting a long time for the food. Ordered pizza and wings. Pretty basic. The food is substandard. Serving on paper plates! Beer was ok but nothing to rave about. Service was terrible. Understaff. I am sitting on the toilet writing this review and I am sick to my stomach. I will never go back there again! Spoiled my Friday night dinner date! read more

Beer was good and the bar back was more helpful then the waitress/bartender. Food was better than most"bar" foods and the seating was ample. read more

Some of the best sours on tap I've ever had, even did a 4 pack to go. I did a barbecue pulled pork Mac and cheese, yummy! My husband did a buffalo chicken pizza and got extra hot sauce to dip in on the side and it was hot and great! Great service. We would come back in a heart beat. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch and our experience was okay . We opted for a flight and the Nana Berries was incredible and my boyfriend loved his Gator Don't Play That Sh*t IPA , the other beers were delicious too . Our food came out pretty quickly and served by two young men from the kitchen . I ordered the Firecracker Chicken sandwich, very disappointing. It's described as crispy but was very soggy and it was way too loaded with shredded lettuce and jalapeño popper dip and I kind of expected a hint of jalapeño heat but there was none . My boyfriend ordered the Hawaiian pizza with jalapeños on it , pretty standard fare . Our Loaded Baked Potato fries were alright but definitely needed some salt . Our server/ bartender disappeared into the kitchen to chat with the guys and never bothered to see if we needed anything like napkins , salt/pepper and a knife to cut my big soggy sandwich and the pizza . My boyfriend found some plastic cutlery near the bar where we were sitting and grabbed it for us . Our server peeked out of the kitchen and saw that move and said " oh I forgot napkins" ... ( she forgot customer service too ) I bit into my sandwich and a gush of cream cheese popper dip was all I could taste and then the soggy breading of the chicken was next . My boyfriend got a box for the leftover pizza and fries but I left most of my messy sandwich. We were here before and service was great and the food was outstanding but today....a miss on the food and our server really didn't seem to want to be there . We'll give this place another try but if it's like our visit today then we definitely won't be back . read more

I've been wanting to try Schaylor for a month or so now since it opened so my wife and I stopped in around 12:30 today. Greeted promptly by two behind the bar and welcomed us being our first time there. We did a flight and a few other 5oz pours, we really liked the S'mores and the Pineapple Express. We didn't have any food but we'll be back again and will try some, the pretzel sticks looked good! read more

Went on a Sunday afternoon, arrived cat 1:30 and food was served an hour later. Waitress never came back for a second drink order. Not that busy; half the indoor tables were booked. Food portions were very small. Kids meals were a joke. Used the restroom and the toilet was filled with urine and toilet paper, flusher busted. Thanks informed the make bartender and he never posted a sign on the door. I heard a second patron do the same thing with no response. This place has really gone downhill. read more

Ok I get it. A baby shower. Shut down today private event ?! Like the whole place?! Maybe post on FB AND YELP maybe Yelp is viable and ALOT of people check it Nothing on untapped either Anyway a sh#% load of diapers on the table near the front door nice! What's next ?! The guy who rented the place out was nice enough to meet us out side and apologies to us and invited us in Eh thanks but no thanks read more

This was our first time here with our family. We loved it! We sat in the back porch area which IS KID AND PET FRIENDLY! (Two good points in my book). The panini was good and the wings were good. My server, falicia, remembered my name (and I think that's extra awesome!) I hope to be back!!! Thanks Schaylor! read more

We have been here a half a dozen times. We have always had great service, food , and beer. I love the fact that their beer list is always rotating so we can always try something new when we come. The chicken wings are outrageously good despite being baked. I was shocked at how crispy and tasty they were without being fried. We will be back soon for sure. One of our favorite spots for sure read more

Stopped here on a Saturday night right before the dinner rush. Place is rather large with seating inside and out. Opted for a flight of beer - $8 for four generous pourings. All choices I made were delicious, especially the Lunar Eclipse. Started off with the beer cheese and pretzels. So good! You got three larger pretzels with a huge helping of the cheese sauce. Then got the chicken Parmesan panini sandwich. Stuffed full of chicken, cheese, and sauce. It was really good. Afterwards we were still drinking so we got the Parmesan Truffle popcorn. WOW! So delicious. Only complaint was there seemed to be only one waitress working all the tables up front, so she seemed a little overwhelmed. Overall the food and beer was amazing and we cannot wait to go back! read more
