Mainstay Independent Brewing Company

Really great brewery with amazing open atmosphere. Definitely worth a try.

Great beer and cider selection ! Also a good place to bring the kids -no other place in town has a playroom for children, so it’s really the best of both worlds . Fishtown has needed something like this for a long time . You can also buy the Mainstay cans to go !!!
The friendly staff and large selection of seating makes it the perfect place for large groups of friends and family .

First time there. It was awesome. Food and beer was amazing. Plus the service was awesome. They were very welcoming and fun

Had a wonderful experience at this new brewery! The staff was friendly, informative and attentive. We enjoyed two tasty flights of their in-house brewed beer and had a hard time picking a favorite, because there were a few. We enjoyed two delicious items from their snack section of the menu and they were both scrumptious; the crab dip was on point, as well as the sliders.

We noticed there was a new establishment at the old Yard's space on our way up Delaware Ave and made note to definitely come back. So we stopped in after after Evil Genius on a little mini brew tour to check out this new spot. Things are generally setup as before, but we were here at 4:30pm and it was extremely dim inside. We needed to utilize our cell phone flashlights (we're all the ripe age of 30) just to see the menus. Two humans of our 5 person party went up to the bar to order food and drink. We received our beverages and a number for our food order and sat back down. We tried a few different beers and our drinks were great. Once our food arrived (cheeseboard and crab dip) we immediately asked for more bread, as we were a party of 5 and there were 5 pieces for the cheeseboard and 5 for the crab dip and we knew the portion sizes required more sharing than that. Our server obliged, but after we each finished our two pieces we sat for about 10 minutes before inquiring a second time about additional bread. All the meanwhile still having to use our phones to see the cheeseboard and crab dip. When finally our requested bread arrived, it was only 3 pieces for our 5 person party. We left, completely unsatisfied to head to the new Yard's Brewery where we are currently enjoying great beer, good food, in a well lit environment. Safe yourself the trouble, just go to Yard's.
