The building alone is worth the visit to this restaurant/ brewery. As you sit on the deck and look around thinking about the history of the location you appreciate the men and women who have given for our freedoms. There is a park close by to walk. Their food is yummy! I recommend you try their pulled pork sandwich! I tried their blueberry beer and it was refreshing and one I would order again. I would definitely recommend this location! read more

Outstanding location for a great brewery! I loved learning the history behind this place. Beautiful decor and very interesting to read all the stories and see historical photos, images of historical figures, etc. The pulled pork sandwich is the staple for good reason but I also enjoyed the Reuben. Staff is very friendly and informative. Highly Recommended! read more

We were in Plattsburgh last weekend and stopped in for a couple beers. Chad was our host/bartender and friend while we were there. The beers were delicious, the property beautiful and the company was excellent! Go to this brewery and enjoy! read more

This restaurant and brewery was fairly busy for a Saturday with a mix of families dining in, and friends and couples at the bar. We came only for a flight to try their beers. They were well staffed though and everyone we interacted with was friendly. The flight holds four however you could order more, they charge per tasting. We both ordered 5 because it was hard for us to narrow down which beers to try. I ordered and enjoyed all of these: Blueberry Lager, Copper Nails, Donnie's Demise, David's Porter, and [something about a] Jacket. They also serve food but we didn't order any since we had dinner plans for somewhere else. They also are an inn and have rooms available upstairs. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back! read more

Stopped in to kill some time before dinner. They offer flight pours which is always great when trying a new brewery. Each beer I had was great. The descriptions of the flavor and style profiles match what you get. read more

Valcour Brewing Company - Flight - Breweries Near Me - Plattsburgh, New York

Valcour was selected because they're in one of the RV programs that shares their parking lot for overnight parking. So now I can have a beer or two and not have to be concerned about driving. Fabulous! As for the location, the historical marker on the outside of this amazing building reads, "Old Stone Barracks. This building was built in 1838. The oldest structure on the base, stands as a witness to many events significant in American military history. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places, February 18, 1971." On a Saturday night, they were not very busy. I was immediately seated inside (air conditioning!) and a helpful waitress took my order. I spent the rest of the evening sipping beer, people watching, writing Yelp reviews. I also managed to consume some (extremely hot!) fried pickle spears. Overnight parking was quiet enough and very level. This was a very pleasant stop and I will definitely return when I am back in Plattsburgh!

Totally delicious food and beer. Got here in time for happy hour and we received a free beer token, we didn't even know!!! The IPA's were hard to choose from and thought I'd love the DIPA but the Magnetic North was our favorite. Seriously, though...I could have drank any of them...think there were four. The poutine was pretty good. Nice to stave off our growing hunger and it came out quickly. Got the Wilbur and they forgot my jalepenos. The burger had two onion rings and poutine and pulled pork. I could hardly fit it in my mouth! Took half home. Was very good. The fries were fresh cut and tasty. I asked for mayo on the side and received it no problem. The bar staff served us outside and she was very attentive even with servicing the bar area. Gave us tastes of the four IPA's willingly. The mushroom Swiss burger was delicious and done perfectly. Another of our party got it with the gluten free bun and no cheese and it was equally delicious. The croc n cheese was the second best Mac the diner has ever had. The so Gouda with chicken came out piping hot, and it stayed very hot the whole time. Kids pizza was definitely enjoyed by our ten yr old diner. This is definitely a place for a repeat visit if and when we're near Lake Placid. Come here, you won't be sorry. read more

The food was good and the service was wonderful this time around. I recommend the blueberry cider!!

Service is friendly, beers are pretty good. (That strawberry shortcake sour does indeed taste like strawberry shortcake! Even a bit creamy, do it just have some lactose.) Only complaint was with the cheese on the poutine - why melt it?! I want the curds! Show me the curds! Spread them on hot fries and top with hot gravy and they'll get the right amount of melty on their own. read more

Terrible service. Waited 15 minutes for our server to come back to take our order and that was after we asked another server to tell him. He walked by our table several times during that 15 minutes. Paid for our drinks and left. Won't be returning. Bad first impression. read more

After a strange altercation with the owner, I do not believe I will be going back to this establishment. During a wedding celebration at the brewery I wittenessed something unsettling. A dazed, almost manic owner not understanding how uncomfortable the situation was actually.(This is why you don't drink on the job) The owner was asking to hold my friend and his wife's baby. Take into consideration that we have no clue who this nutcase is and she is just hanging upstairs coming over the the bride and groom in the middle of the event to try and hold a new born baby. Not once, not twice, but over 3 times did she try and hold this baby. I can say with certainty I've never felt so uncomfortable during a wedding. Long and short - hide your kids and hide you baby, the witch of valcour brewing will snatch them right up. read more

Was visiting from San Diego and we attended an event there. Nice place and great choices of beer. Love the conversion of a historic military barracks to a very cool place to enjoy a brew and music. read more

We were seated on the porch by the host. We sat there for 25 minutes without service. As we got up to leave, a waitress finally came out. I told her it had been 25 minutes and she claimed she was never told we were her table. I reminded her that she had looked right at me before walking away and she rudely said it wasn't her fault. We will take our business to a local restaurant that has its act together and treats customers with respect and not an attitude. read more

9/21/25 at 5 pm. We sat at bar while 4 employees talked to a customer, after 5 minutes we left.

For the price, the food was horrible!!! Curry seasoning on the nacho chips and the most flavorless burger I've had in a long time while soaking the bun in grease. The food is so basic you are better off eating home. Service was fine, atmosphere was fine. I won't waste my money again!! 70$ !!! For 2 read more

Onion soup is amazing. Add a BLT and wash it down with a glass of their Copper Nails and you cannot go wrong!

Came here last night for a couple beers and some apps. There was a mediocre cover band playing loudly outside, so we ended up inside with a super sticky booth table. Not the best start to the experience! Our waitress was having some kind of awful day because she barely greeted us, barked a question asking about drinks, and practically slammed our two drinks on the table. The Copper Nails, their signature beer, was pretty good but nothing extra special. The six buffalo wings we ordered came out in a pool--a literal pool--of hot sauce. So gross. Blue cheese dressing was served in packaged tub. The wings were flabby and unflavorful (shocking considering the ocean of sauce they must have been tossed in). All yours for $11 in Plattsburgh, NY! We do have to say that the building, an old barracks, was pretty cool. And I guess they're doing the good work of keeping up a community gathering spot, so there's also that. 2.5 stars, rounding down. read more

Service was prompt and the waitress was very accommodating of my low carb diet. Food was delicious and arrived promptly, and prices were reasonable. While I didn't have anything to drink, the craft beer selection is good for the area, and a nearby couple raves about the flight they'd selected. read more

Absolutely delicious. I had the shrimp tacos with the poutine side dish and it was all excellent. The Valcour burger was also delicious.

Stopped in for some apps & beers as we passed through Plattsburg to MTL. Highly recommend! Flatbreads were great and the Mimosa Sour beer was SO good! Really friendly and fast service, sat outside comfortably to emjoy the weather. read more

Bad service really slow and when we complained about the food being cold they said they could've fixed it but only came over to the table twice max. service took forever 1 hour for 2 burgers and nachos. Overall bad service would not recommend if you're looking for high quality or just overall ok food this place is not it. read more

The building is cool and well kept. The wait staff was nice. We have kids and the atmosphere was kid friendly. The beer I had was good (it was their flagship IPA). Two issues: 1) the food is frozen. We ordered fish tacos and it was like the frozen fish in a taco with coleslaw. It didn't taste bad but it was definitely frozen. $15 for two tacos is a high price for frozen haddock and grocery store coleslaw. 2) Although the waitress was very nice, she had very long hair that was not managed by a hat, ponytail, etc. I was extremely concerned and saw her hair come very close to our food and drinks. That alone will make me never come back since that is like cleanliness 101. read more

Beer is amazing. Food is great. The building is super cool. Very nice place to visit.

This place was really "off" for me. You name your place a "brewing" company but they didnt have most of the beers on the list. We ordered the cooper nails after the very sweet waitress gave us a taste, but they only had enough for 1 pint not 2. What!?!??? So I got the shandy which,is just a shandy. Nice looking place. Didnt try the food, not sure if that's what sells this place read more

Interesting little spot. Looks like a huge historic inn or something... The beer was great. I ordered the big Ben, a DIPA. Wife got a flight and enjoyed all of the different options she picked. The only food we got was the charcuterie board. Plenty of food for the price, 4 types of cheese, 3 types of salami, crackers and pickled veggies (star of the show in my opinion). We enjoyed the lawn as well which offered Adirondack chairs and shade... A big win for parents with young kids. read more

Went for lunch, we were the only ones, they greeted us as soon as we got there. Took awhile to come back busy talking to each other. When the order was finally done, they sure like to talk instead of bringing the food. Food was ok had the fish sandwich which was dried out and the roll was past it's prime. Mac and cheese had good flavor, french fries were good. Long wait for the check, long wait to pickup the check. So lunch turned out to be 1 hour 20 minutes good that I didn't have to be some where else. Some walking involved, handicapped parking is at the end of the building and the dining area is almost to the other end of the building. read more

While the drinks are great and staff are very pleasant, if you have a gluten allergy (celiac here), beware. While many items are labeled gluten free, there is a high cross contamination risk. For example, there is one fryer for everything, but the fries and poutine are listed as gluten free on the menu. When I asked, they did check and were honest about what goes in there. I had a salad and side of grilled chicken. Based on the transparency about the fryer, I trust that the staff did their best to reduce cross contamination, but I had a reaction regardless. I just don't think the kitchen staff training is fully understanding of what gluten free means - see fryer above as an example. It's a nice vibe and fun environment, I'll likely come back for drinks in the future, but won't be eating here again unfortunately. read more

Perfect hot, cozy meal and dark beers on a windy, rainy day. Outstanding porter paired beautifully with gooey mushroom mac and cheese. The coffee is HOT and complements the toffee cake with bourbon cream perfectly. All this was served up quickly by super friendly folks. Would happily return for a night at the pub and a sleep at the inn. read more

This place is a hidden gem! After all the years I had traveled to Plattsburgh I had never come across this place! I am so happy we went driving around looking for The Old Post Cemetery. Saw the building and wanted to explore, and to our surprise there was a restaurant! We had to try for ourselves. The building is just gorgeous, made the meal even more wonderful. We had the nachos, which we were craving and it hit the spot, the burger and fries were good but the meat could have been a liltte less done, and the fish tacos and mac and cheese were delicious! It was a nice change from the chains around the area. It's a must try when in this part of town. For the history and the food! Will go back again! read more

Valcour is a bed, restaurant and brewery housed in the old stone barracks that dates back to the 1800s. It was rescued and refurbished and is now a fantastic venue. We rented a quaint little room for two nights and found it to be perfect. The decorations and small convenience items are expected of a larger facility like a Hilton etc. very clean, quiet and comfortable. Dinner the first night (you get a discount on food if you are an overnight guest) was absolutely fantastic. I had a burger. I forget the name but it was amazing. Served with sweet potatoes fries and a couple of dipping sauces for the fries. My wife had the Gouda tomato sandwich with the sweet potato fries. She was very happy with it and I had it for a mid morning snack the next day. I thought there was chicken in it because there was so much cheese!! Great as a leftover too. Lunch on day two was great. We had a chicken and cranberry salad. The salad was crisp and fresh and chicken seasoned with a delicious yet light blend of spices and stuff-delicious. The highlight of both meals was the yet unnamed drink which our bartender Kastle served. It was a root beer mixed with a cream bourbon. It will definitely sneak up on you!!!! All the food is locally sourced and fresh. I wish I lived closer. I would be here a LOT more often. read more

Good food and beer! Came with a larger party and they were very accommodating! Great spot in a cool historical building

The beer was deliciously cold, the food was tasty and the room was wonderful. They have done a beautiful job restoring the Old Stone Barracks that were built in 1838. It definitely is an old building brought to modern day but still keeping the charm and integrity of the past in tack. What a great experience read more

Deeply disappointed. We planned to have a burger tonight. Checked the website to make sure they were open on a Tuesday night. Website said they were open until 9:00 with the kitchen closing 30 minutes before. Arrived at 8:00. We were told the kitchen closed at 8:00. Mentioned that was not what the Website said. The employee just walked away without an apology. However, I received an apology on the Facebook message I sent as well as a call from the owner. They recently switched Website providers and the hours were not updated in error. So I am changing my review to OK because I feel they heard me. We will try again on another day, because I am willing to give them another chance based on the responsiveness I've received. read more

Loved it!!! Came as a backup plan when our first dinner plan fell through. We are so glad the first one didn't work out. The building and outdoor seating was awesome. My husband has trouble finding draft beer he likes and LOVED their own Copper Nails amber! The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. I highly recommend this for dinner or drinks. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be back. read more

This place is off the hook. The beer is delicious and the maple-bacon whiskey they carry is absolutely amazing. The prices are so incredibly reasonable considering the amount of food you get and the quality of the food. We had/shared the pistachio-blue cheese-cranberry HALF salad and some boneless buffalo wings and we were stuffed. The food came out super fast and the service was incredible. Our waitress was Molly and we LOVED her!!! We can't wait to come back here! read more

I liked it there because it has a ghost and I like the waitresses. She made the best chocolate milk. The food was good. I had the Mac & cheese and potato fries. (Dictated by a 6 year old, typed by Mom) read more

This place was very cool! Loved the old barracks on the outside. The local beers were delicious and we tried so many new ones. the blueberry was so good. We got some appetizers, like the poutine which was different and very tasty! This was a quick stop while on a weekend getaway but worth it! I can definitely see how fun it would be during summertime. read more

Fantastic brewery and restaurant. Full disclosure - only been once - but terrific experience. Ate on the expansive outside porch of this converted barracks. Possibly the best pulled-pork sandwich I have ever had - not an exaggeration: cooked and assembled perfectly, and delivered with piping hot (also perfectly-cooked) onion rings. A flight of fresh beers revealed a rich, nuanced porter and an array of great IPAs. Great atmosphere, nice people, tasty/freshly prepared food and quality brews...two thumbs way up. We'll be back when next in the area. You gotta try this place. read more
