This is a really fun spot to drink a few beers and eat a sandwich. They have a big variety of sandwiches and all the beers were great. I went here twice in one weekend. They also have coolers full of beer and we got a good selection of cans to go.

Nice place to grab a pretzel and and a beer! The outside seating is usually full but the tables open quickly, you can also sit inside This is our absolute favorite place to get great beer and sit with family. The staff is super friendly and the facility is clean including the restrooms. Rybrew has a very large selection for you to choose from as well as taps for fresh beer. Baked cookies, cupcakes and pretzels. I do not think that you will be disappointed

Great sandwich and beer selection, and they have outdoor seating as well. I showed up with 20 minutes to spare till close and they were more than happy to make me a sandwich (dont be like me show up earlier). Ordered the San Diego, great flavor!

Really great selection of craft beers (6 on tap and a whole row of coolers with cans). The sandwiches were very good and we really liked the cupcakes, too! A few spots for outdoor seating with more indoors as well. Awesome spot for beer and lunch with a cool vibe and knowledgeable staff!

The sandwiches are made exquisitely. They exceed expectations and make you want to come back and try more! The beer selection is vast and ever evolving. I come here every time I’m in Philly - it’s in a great location for a little walk through Brewerytown as well!

They have very a unique selection of beers, sandwiches, chips and desserts! Definitely worth checking out. I ordered the napa sandwich and banh mi and spilt half and half with mt s/o, both very delicious and filling sandwiches.

I got a delicious Italian sub here, and the staff was kind enough to give me a sampler glass of cider on the house when I asked for just half of the normal 16oz pour. Highly recommend.

Delicious sandwiches, tons of beer options and some incredibly friendly staff. This place is a Brewerytown gem and I go out of my way to grab food here. Must try for anyone looking for good lunch/dinner spot in philly.

Large selection of craft beers, ciders, and seltzer. They make their ice cream and baked goods in house. And their ice cream is the best and super affordable. Nice patio but not enough tables.

Sat with some friends and had soup. And we all enjoyed it. The sandwiches sounded so good on the menu. Decided to order potato salad and their banh mi to go. The sandwich was burnt and the pork was dry, stringy and flavorless. The pickled veggies was just a glob of carrots and cucumbers that had no flavor also. The potato salad was just mayo, potatoes and dill. No eggs or onions or flavor. I gave this place 1 star only because the staff was nice and their extensive variety of beers

Tried to order a pulled pork sandwich, the person on the phone said they dont have a pulled pork sandwich. Ive been going here for 2 years and always order the same thing.Then they said they have multiple pulled pork sandwich and asked which one. I said can you describe them. They started to describe a bahn mi sandwich.I said no, thats a bahn mi sandwich. I then tried to order a hummus sandwich, and with an attitude they said, you mean a Hollywood Sandwich?I ended the call and looked at their menu, theres only 1 pulled pork sandwich, but the person on the phone wouldnt take a second to look at their own menu. 3/8/2021 @ 3p

This was the best BLT I ever had!!. With avocado and really nice grainy toast. Good beers. GF and veg and vegan options too! We sat outside. No inside dining yet. Chairs not so comfortable.

When I trek to Sedgley Woods, this is the usual lunch Mecca. Good beers on tap and in fridge (to bring back to the DG course of course!) with tasty filling sandwiches. One of my favorite Italian sandwichs on earth. Although I did get the SanAntonio this time and enjoyed that. However I would try a different cheese than American but thats me. A smidge pricey yet I keep coming back all the time

I am obsessed with their BLTs. I went through a kick where I only ordered BLTs when I ate out. Hands down Rybrew’s is my favorite. It’s that good. No indoor seating yet, but they do have several tables and chairs out on the side walk.

Great Paninis and friendly staff, highly recommend for lunch on a cold day!

Al
Review №49

Beer selection and food is reasonable, but I give this place such a low rating because of the lack of ventilation and the saturating burnt grease stench that not only immediately assaults your nose the second you open the door, but drenches your clothes, hair, even the beer cans days after you leave the place. Ive been here about 6 times over the past 2+ years and I’ve even seen smoke in the air. I don’t understand how that is legal. I live in the neighborhood, enjoy my fair share of neighborhood beer and food, and would frequent this place much, much more if they didn’t have that problem.I hope they see this because I say something to the person working about it every time I have gone in.

Love this place! They had a great cider on tap (dont remember what is was) and split the Denver and Savannah with my roomie. Both were delish!Update: January of 2021.... I LOVE THIS PLACE! I moved into Brewerytown in September and I go here at least every other week. Its currently my busy season at work and this place is one of my go-to spots when working late!

Great city spot for hand crafted sandwiches and an off-the-charts selection of craft beers. The pulled pork with slaw and a specialty IPA make for a fun and delicious lunch. Outside street seating with views up an down Gerard Ave. offer a unique and real Philly experience. Its easy, different and awesome. Go.

Tasty sandwiches. Great craft beer and beverage selection. Prices are reasonable I guess. But everything is all cart. So, sandwich $8, chips $2, drink $3-$5 or more. Easily drop $20 on a meal. Not exactly the $ that I was expecting.

Great little spot, and the beer selection is excellent for craft lovers.. Try the Tuscan panini, its amazing with bacon, tomato and avocado. The peach tea is excellent to, but leave out the sweeter. Its perfect the way they make it. Cant wait to try other stuff there

Im a fan of the Rybrew sandwich which has crab cakes. I ordered the other sandwiches with roast beef and another with turkey. I was not a fan of the beef but the turkey with cranberry sauce was good too. A large selection of beer is available.

Looking for a quick sandwich to go we stumbled across this place. Had a delicious “Denver” white meat chicken salad on great bread. Also had a “Philadelphia”, Italian cold cut sandwich. Place is clean, people are friendly.

I love this place. The sandwiches are on point and remind me of living in Southern California where you can get fresh avocado on anything you want and have creative options at your fingertips for any dietary need.The traditional hoagie is not the star here. I don’t even think there’s one on the menu, which is awesome. It’s totally west coast style in all ways and they seem to have a great beer selection though I’ve never perused it closely.Everyone who I’ve ever ordered from has been chill and genuine in meeting the needs of anyone who walks through the door. The prices are fair and there’s plenty of seating between the upper and lower level.

Had the fresh mozzarella and pesto sandwich it was really really really quite good.My friends both had salads they were a great size and they really seem to enjoy them.We had the food picked up and between the call and the running to go get it had the food within a half an hour.Took a star off because of pricing, I felt it was a bit expensive. $8 for a vegetarian sandwich, no sides included. I know its brewerytown and all that, but still.

Best sandwiches in the city! Really cool place where you can just sit on your computer and do work or a fun place to get drinks with friends. Rybrew often has love music, it is a relaxed place to get food and drinks

Review №87

As their menu says: sandwiches, salads, beer and treats. This place is a pretty straight forward sandwich place that also sells beer and treats. The menu is pretty limited-paninis, sandwiches, salads and soup. They have beer on tap and a pretty good selection of craft beer in cans/bottles. You can get a six pack to carry out but the price was so high I only did that once. As far as treats, they sell cupcakes and icecream.The menu has vegan, vegetarian AND gluten free options. The space is clean and inviting. I have never had a problem with the staff or service. Rybrew also regularly has live music/open mic night.Overall this place feels very middle of the road. The food is good but not necessarily something I would crave, but thats more my personal taste. I give them four stars simply because I actually really like their selection of beer but its overpriced for carry-out.

Great paninis! Got the buffalo chicken. Really a 4.5 star place with their somewhat limited eating options, but 4 stars is too low.

Rybrew - has excellent sandwiches (San Fran is my favorite) and the salads are huge and a good value (Austin is great). Plus cool scene on a Saturday, people drinking good beer, playing shuffleboard. Not too bad!

Loved! My partner had a build your own sandwich (roast beef special) and he loved it... he usually only likes homemade food so thats a win. I thoroughly enjoyed the San Diego (as did my 1 year old, smh). The service was great and quick. And they even offered my lil one a dessert 🙂

Good:Great beer selection, and for a place you can drink, great prices.The food is very good as well. Havent had a bad item.Everyone who works there is cordial, helpful and cool.Not-So-Good:Its not always comfortable. If youre there on your computer doing things your eyes can literally start burning from the smoke/onions coming from kitchen. Theres no ventilation. And it can get cold if they try to fix that when they open doors.Also, kitchen staff tends to blast music which coincides with the music playing over the stereo. Bad combo.Overall, place is great, but I get the feeling they dont actually want people staying there, occupying tables, doing work.I still come here a lot.

My boyfriend and I tried Rybrew less than two weeks ago and have been back twice since. We had the Italian and the Napa with prosciutto and no tomatoes and were floored by how good they both were. The bread is high quality, the ingredients were perfect, and the brewery was friendly, relaxed, and casual.

Great sandwiches, great tea. I have ate here several times and have been pleased every time. I have never tried their beer but I know people who love the apple beer (hard cider).P.S. If you get a warm sandwich on baguette bread, Ig recommend getting another bread because its very hard to chew!
