Overall/ maybe worth stopping by again, but it'll be a tough sell to my husband, especially with…read moreother establishments in the area we know we like better, or would try. A kind of expensive stop for meh food and beer. Staff were amazing, so I feel slightly bad for a critical review. ---------------------------- Parking/ This started off the experience rocky for our vehicle. There seemed to be no specific parking dedicated to the brewery. There seemed to be a lot next door for the bank, but there was tons of signage saying it was for the bank, and others would be towed. There seemed to be street parking, but tons of signs saying no parking, loading zones, etc. After three trips around the block settled on the bank since it was Sunday. Had this been any other day, I could have seen us giving up and going elsewhere. Ambiance/ Very brewery-esque with tanks, natural vibes, etc. There was a live jazz trio playing who sounded lovely, but I just wasn't in the mood to try to talk over music, and asked to be moved further away. It seemed like the general feel, many were sat in main bar area, and asked to move back. Staff/ Every single staff member was super friendly, helpful, prompt, and trying to make your experience go well, so super shout out to the staff. Food/ We were stopping through the area around lunch time, so we didn't need anything crazy, but if you weren't getting breakfast or a burger, there wasn't much else. We both ordered a burger (All American and the breakfast/fried egg one). The All-American was good and I upgraded to fries. Breakfast burger was "good enough" I'm told. The chips that come with the burgers are just bagged kettles chips and not homemade. Beers/ We actually came in thinking we weren't going to drink, but were suckers for trying new things. Husband had an IPA and I had a fruited sour. Neither of us liked our beers, and I purposely made sure to drink mine before finishing my food so I didn't have to end with it. Price/ I don't know the area well but beers were $7-$8 for 10 oz pours. For two burgers, one with bagged chips and one with upgraded fries, and 2 not good beers, our bill was $50+. Which isn't terrible, but I could find better places to eat for that price point.

High on the Frog…read more Locally-owned and operated brewery and brewpub that's been in operation for nearly forty (ca. 1986) years. They're located in the heart of Downtown Williamsport and bring their A game when it comes to food and brews. The Good: *Great location right across from the theater (we were there to see a graduation) *Friendly service *Small dog-friendly front patio *Live music *Sunday Brunch *Fried Pierogis were delicious and served up hot and fresh. I wish they were a little more seasoned, as the mashed potato filling needed more salt. But ain't that the way taters always is? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ *Carissa loved her Korean BBQ Salmon Salad, as the fish was cooked perfectly and the house KBBQ sauce was delicious. *Huge draft list of housemade beers, ciders, and even sodas. *My Pittsburger was epic! Talk about a meal in one handful: burger, slaw, and fries all packed neatly between two soft pillowy buns made this a Man vs Food episode in the making. The Meh: *Free but limited street parking. There are several small lots adjacent but I'm not sure what their limitations are. The Ugly: *The place can fill up fast, especially if there's an event/show at the aforementioned theater. Conclusion: Great beer, ambiance, and food. Say less.

John Ryan is a uniquely first class brewery experience in Williamsport, PA. The brewery is located…read morein a beautifully renovated townhouse with a bar on the main floor, a basement tavern space, and very nice second floor dining areas. My companion, friends, and I dropped in for drinks on a late December Saturday afternoon. The beer list was tasty but eclectic: if you are less adventurous you may want to call or otherwise check in advance. I had several selections that I enjoyed but at first blush others could be put off by things like Japanese rice lager. Give them a try--you will be pleasantly surprised even if you are a conventional lager or IPA fan. We sat at the bar and service was exceptional and very friendly.

It had a cool and cozy alleyway that you could seat yourself outside or you could go inside for more of a sports bar vibe. Parking would be on a nearby street, garage or at Kohls. We sat at the bar and our bartender was great! Quick service and she kept the waters coming. Cool brick interior with tv's everywhere for your viewing pleasure. They had a nice draft selection, especially of the local brews, but what we didn't anticipate was how great the food would be. I got the salmon BLT, my wife got the Buffalo wrap and we split the chicken/peach salad. This was slighlty elevated bar food and it was fresh and tasty. I look forward to visiting this place again!

New Trail is a solid spot located in an industrial area of Williamsport, PA. This place is all…read moreabout the beer, with a factory vibe in the tasting area adjacent to the brewery. There's a full selection of New Trail's offerings on tap. They don't offer flights per se, but you can order 4-ounce pours. Food is limited to food trucks on site. The beer is excellent and fresh since you are enjoying it right at the source. New Trail ships around the region and beyond and has grown into a reasonably good sized business. As such, the overall tasting room experience feels a little...corporate...with plenty of merch on offer in addition to the beer. As others have noted, the exterior spaces are functional but basically tables in a gravel area off a parking lot. I get it--there's not much you can do with that location. However, if beer is your priority then the rest is secondary. Definitely recommend.

When walking inside, the smell reminded me of an old basement, but it quickly faded. We had live music playing, which set the perfect vibe. The bartenders were quick and super friendly. Enjoyed a variety of appetizers and my favorite was the bread. The crust had a great salty flavor to it. Unfortunately, my entrée was forgotten about so I didn't get my plate of food until most of the party was done eating. However, this server was very apologetic and I just slipped on my mojito. Loved the street corn and the poblano crema on the potatoes. For dessert I had the ice cream sandwich, which was underwhelming. The cookies were too hard, a bit overcooked for my liking. Overall, I did like the variety of their menu and the overall atmosphere of this joint.
