Lancaster’s once-heralded brewing tradition has made a strong comeback, paving the way for businesses to range in scope from small taprooms to large venues that offer everything from beer-friendly snacks to wide-ranging menus. Our wineries are top notch, as well. Newer to the scene are meaderies, cideries and distillers.

Be sure to check with each restaurant for current hours.
