Staas Brewing Company — Restaurant in Delaware

We've been going here for years and it just keeps getting better. Cozy pub-style atmosphere with a thoughtfully curated craft beer selection. Some are seasonal and some are staples, but even my Budweiser-only father-in-law makes an exception for Staas.

If you don't like what you're drinking they'll help you find something to your taste so you can go back to chatting or people watching. The newer large patio, just outside the building, is a great open space to enjoy the weather and give your kids room to play. Parents are also mindful of other patrons and know when it's bedtime, leaving space for folks out for some child-free fun.

My favorite brewery by far. We have been patrons since the first year they opened. Even been there for some of the anniversary pictures. Anytime there is a cask beer you must try it. If you are looking for an awesome environment to have a beer this is the place. Donald and Liz are fabulous people and everyone is friendly. Not sure where the people with bad reviews are coming from. Yes, the place is smaller, but the beers are fantastic, and plenty of choices. Not all super hopped and undrinkable. Bring your own food and enjoy the atmosphere. The small batch beers are ridiculously good. Enjoy beer with people who care about what...
