Food is great. Beer is great. Service (Tess) was great. Shishito pepper nearly killed my daughter but cookies (and Tess) saved the day! She is just so kind and really made the whole experience!

We ordered a number of different items, and they were all delicious. The wings were the best I’ve had in years. We will be coming back again ASAP.

Surfridge is a great brewery! The food and staff are amazing. My family came here after the Essex Pirate Train ride. The flights were great and the owner came by several times to check on how we were doing. Highly recommend and they open at noon on Saturday and Sunday!

I was not expecting the level of service or food that I received. This place was a little bit more bougie than the places I like to eat at. I've had many experiences where the better the place looked, the worse the food tasted. Surprisingly, even with such a beautiful atmosphere, my group was served delicious food.It was a simplistic fare but it was done really well. They make a lot of their sauces In-House. For example, my son had a Caesar salad and he was raving about the dressing they created. I had meatballs with toasted bread and it was definitely the most delicious thing I've had in a while. I've been to many places where they do not season their food, but this restaurant seasoned everything to perfection. Our group was so happy with our food that we were sharing with each other so everyone could experience how good our dish tasted!I never had a mocktail before, but their mango fizz was the real deal. Other people in my group had their alcoholic beverages and they were very happy with them as well.The cherry on top was the service we received. Our waitress was very nice and she stopped by at appropriate times to check in.I live an hour and a half away from this place, we were visiting the Essex Steam Train when we decided to eat here. We didn't have the best day due to traffic, missing our train and the hot weather but this restaurant made our day. I will be coming back because I was thoroughly impressed. That's hard for people to do so please excuse my long review! I'm sorry about the lack of pictures but I was enjoying my food too much to take a picture 😂

So happy we stopped here during our weekday getaway to Essex, CT. Food, beer and entertainment were great! We had the Charcuterie board, Caesar salad, pepperoni pizza and mushroom pizza. Kids enjoyed the wings and pizza from kids menu. I was happy to see they had a beer flight so I could sample my favorites.

SUCH a great place. Awesome location. Very cool and engaging owners and staff who VERY much care about the service, quality of food, and the beers they craft. Burger and beer special currently going on every Weds is VERY much worth it. Thanks, Steve, for taking the extra time to tell us what you have in the tanks and what we can look forward to this summer. Surfbridge has it all when it comes to beer, food, and unique entertainment. Just five stars all around! 🌟

The beer was very good, the bartender was friendly and provided great service and explained all the different beers they had and made some great recommendations. The wings were very good, as was their special of day- sausage platter and pretzels. We highly recommend it and will return!

Our one bartender seemed to want no part of being there. Zero personality and clearly didnt know how to pour a beer properly.

We were waiting for the Essex steam Train and ducked in for a pizza and beer. Thought about skipping the train and just staying- it was that good!

I went for the beer & will return for the snacks. Don't get me wrong, the beer was good. The food was unique & outstanding. They could use some acoustic dampeners, but otherwise we had a great time & will be back.

My husband and I were visiting Connecticut and showed up at this brewery before they opened. We were sitting at their outside patio and the owner, Steve, came out and greeted us and let us in to have a beer! Steve chatted with us at the bar and told us his story while opening up for the day, such an incredible guy!!! Beer was great and the inside atmosphere is decorated so cool with plenty of space and seating. Highly recommend!!!
