Brewery Ommegang

Anytime I'm in NY, I make it a point to stop here. I first visited Ommegang in 2005. Over the years it has grown in size and popularity. They make several great Belgian style beers, offer tours of the brewery, have a gift shop where you can buy swag...and their beer of course. About 4 years ago, they partnered with HBO to brew "Game of Thrones" themed beers. When they added the cafe, that just pushed this place over the top. The cafe serves awesome food....really...its pretty good. Most items on the menu have one of their many beers as an ingredient, just adding to the flavors. They are open year round, with limited hours during the winter...usually 12pm-5pm. During the summer they have concerts in the field behind the brewery...right next to their locally grown hops, and allow overnight camping. Lastly, no I'm not an employee writing a great review, just a retired Army guy who loves good beer and great food.

The food here is phenomenal. I have been to a lot of breweries in NY that have good beer but terrible overpriced food. This is not one of those places. The service is fast and everyone is very nice. The beer is good and the food is absolutely great. I got a chicken sandwich and two beers and it was just about $30. A little pricey but I'm going to reiterate that the food is worth every penny even though it might be a little more costly it's because it's delicious. Oh, and I got the Spicy Cheddar Ale soup, it's the best soup I have ever had, hands down.

Awesome place. Went here on a Cooperstown tour and this is such a nice brewery. Great gift shop, great beer, and a lot of choices. Food is good as well. Ample seating and parking. If you are in the area I recommend stopping by and getting a flight of beers....relax and enjoy

Corporate beer personified...I am continually amazed at how many people rate this place highly...the tours are an afterthought it seems at least the ones I have gone on...I daresay my very first tour in 2002 was the best before Ommegang lost its way... The facility upgrades are nice but it is cramped...the food is very good in the cafe but the service...how can you work in a brewery and not smile...not be excited...how can you work with the public and seem you want to be anywhere but there...I have been at this brewery all days of the week over the years and it is always the same... I can say the same for management as well...a couple of years ago I vowed not to go back but alas...I am an optimist or maybe the living definition of insanity expecting things to change while doing the same over and over...not sure which pertains...in good conscience I cannot recommend Brewery Ommegang when it feels the staff just go through the motions...

A really beautiful brewery with a very inviting atmosphere! Food was great, beer was great, staff was great! Can't think of a single negative thing to say about my time spent there for a Sunday afternoon lunch. I'll be coming back!
