Nestled in the heart of downtown Seward, just a stone’s throw from the Alaska SeaLife Center, Seward Brewing Company combines a love for high-quality craft beer with an inventive culinary flair. Open seasonally from May to September, this two-story brewpub offers not just beer but a complete dining experience, all while soaking in views of Resurrection Bay and the charming streets of Seward. We were drawn to their exceptional beer menu, with the standout favorite being White Fang, a delightful hefeweizen. This beer’s sweet, light banana and clove notes are perfectly balanced, making it a refreshing choice whether you’re basking in the summer sun or pairing it with one of their creative dishes. Speaking of pairings, it complemented my Send Noods cold noodle bowl—an addictive blend of chilled noodles, fresh veggies, and tender chicken. Andrew, of course, went for the Hot Chicken, their twist on Nashville hot chicken, which came with just the right level of heat to keep things interesting. Locals rave about the That Pho’king Sando and Bao Down Asian tacos served in fluffy steamed buns, rounding out a menu that’s anything but ordinary. Seward Brewing’s passion for crafting not only beers but also unique dishes is apparent. From the friendly, knowledgeable beertenders to the warm, inviting atmosphere, it’s no wonder this place is a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re here for the brews, the bites, or the bay views, Seward Brewing Company delivers an unforgettable experience in the wild beauty of Alaska.

Ok, the good: The location is excellent. The space is beautiful and welcoming. It's the only brewery for a hundred miles. The service on a quiet Wednesday afternoon was great and our server earned a generous tip. The food was good and reasonably priced. If this was it, I'd say this is a five star spot. But, if you are here to enjoy really good beer, that's where the bad comes in. I had heard from some friends that the venue was nice and the food was decent but that the beer was just unremarkable. Yeah. That's pretty much accurate and I'm pretty sure that advice was given to me about four years ago. We got the six-glass taster set and the price was fair, but none of their beers were anything close to remarkable. All fairly hoppy and with a focus on reds and with one beer that I'm pretty sure was from another brewery but wasn't stated as such. We normally order a flight and then order one or two that we like, but I found myself eyeing the beers from Alaskan and Midnight Sun that they had on tap because I know those were good beers. I hope they can up their quality game. They've been in business six years and I've never seen any of their beers outside of Seward. This tells me that they're really in the restaurant business. So, if you go, enjoy the food and the atmosphere but order beers from the right side of the board and skip their brews.

I fully get AK tourism related businesses only have 2-3 months to cover their annual overhead and therefore must charge more than elsewhere. HOWEVER, Seward Brewery is totally taking the piss with their $24 so called “14 inch” pizza. There was near zero sauce and cheese and was more than half dough/crust. This is not isolated as it was true of all three pies delivered to our table. I reconstructed the crust for the photo and to show to the waiter who was pretty much a no show at our table for when he would inevitably return. When I expressed my unhappiness there was a barely perceptible “sorry” and that was it. No further comment on the matter acting as if our exchange never happened. The waiter could not have cared less. No di minimis adjustment to the bill, no comp of anything to our table like a coke or an offer of even a coffee on the house. No - he just ignored what I said and waited for his tip. I rarely write negative reviews but the pie and the indifferent attitude has really pissed me off. My recommendation is that everyone should AVOID SEWARD BREWERY AND LOOK ELSEWHERE. Consider the Flamingo Lounge which was absolutely great. Or, if you really want pizza in downtown, go to Apollo.

Came back to this pace after 12 years and had extremely high expectations because 12 years ago this restaurant was one of the highlights of my trip to Seward. Unfortunately, the dining experience tonight wasn't nowhere near as good. Let's begin with the positives: Our server was very courteous (thank you, Taylor - I hope I'm spelling her name correctly!) and took a very good care of us. Next, overall atmosphere was great - we got a table on the second floor and the view out of the window on the second floor was spectacular. That said, the biggest disappointment came from the food we ordered. I ordered fish tacos (name of the dish - In Cod We Trust) and, it was very bland and lacked flavor. Not sure if they're supposed to be bland, but I did not enjoy them that much. I tried another dish (cold noodle bowl) and, much like the fish tacos, this dish was tasteless. There were maybe two pieces of zucchini in the whole bowl and 90% of the dish was cold noodles. I'm not sure if I'll be back after tonight's dining experience, but hopefully the review helps to improve the quality of the food. Otherwise, this is a great place to come and hang out with family and friends!

My family just visited a Seward’s brewery called Seward Brewing Company and whenever you have one local brewery in a small town; I get very excited because there’s something about the essence of a local brewery that calls out for a small town. This brewery was the exact representation of that! It was on the Main Street of the town, with a warm inviting atmosphere that draws you to the wooden hostess front desk right next to the metal Fermentation vessels with a smell of malt that is getting you excited to taste what the small brewery had to offer. For me, my favorite breweries, are the breweries that have incredible beer and food! Not only was the beer and food great, but there was also a family atmosphere and my kids had a great time as well(they loved the pizza). The staff was very nice, friendly and the service was excellent! They didn’t have too many beers on tap but most important they hit every category of beer and all of it was on point and very well done. Overall I give the Seward Brewery a 5 out of 5 stars!

Great service even though it was packed shortly after opening. I always go to breweries and was a little disappointed with their selection of IPas. There was only one and it wasn't terrible. Just different. Almost tasted like a mix between a regular beer, a shot, cider and a seltzer. I actually don't know what a seltzer is. I am a man. I also use to have a man bun and am a hipster and still wouldn't drink it. They do have one. Which is sad considering it's a brewery. My only complaint is on me. Not them. The FRIES!!!!!!! I would go back to order a few fries and nothing else. It has brisket ends, gorganzola crumbs, beer cheese, fat fries, and Sriracha sauce. I don't think I've actually tasted Sriracha sauce but these fries were awesome. We also had the tacos and hot chicken sandwich. My girlfriend said the tacos were awesome and also agrees on the fries. Definitely worth a visit. Other places in town have a few selection of beers. Even the local Cafe. So get your IPA on after.
