The lure of a food truck that serves warm or chilled authentic Maine Lobster Rolls; along with nice enough weather to have lunch outside
finally brought me to Newtown Brewing Company, which opened in October 2019 in a big
industrial space on Penn's Trail in Newtown, PA.
I was impressed with Cousins Maine Lobster, (you can see from my photos that my "Connecticut Roll" looked as amazing as it tasted), but I was even more impressed with Newtown Brewing Co!
It was our first time there, and the staff were all very friendly and accommodating. If anyone knows Dave (I call him “Famous Dave”) who I believe is the General Manager, make sure he sees this!
He went out of his way to make us feel welcome and comfortable.
This was our first time eating indoors in over a year since the Coronavirus pandemic hit.
(I wonder if we'll ever look back at this challenging time of COVID as a distant memory?)
Everything was clean & spacious and spread out, and Richard and I both felt safe and comfortable in the large and airy taproom.
We ordered a few beers, went out to the food truck and got our lunch, then had another cold beer with our meal. There were four large picnic tables and a decent amount of Adirondack chairs outside, but as I said, it was very spacious and airy indoors, so we opted to dine in.
Newtown Brewing Company is a BYOF (Bring your own Food) establishment, but they do offer some snacks to nibble on, as well as a rotating food truck list.
We only had the lightest Lager on the list, but the beer was ice cold and delicious.
A young couple at the next table were sharing beer flights.
There were two hard seltzers on the menu that I considered, and I noticed that they also serve wine from a nearby winery. Like most craft breweries, entertainment is offered on the weekends, but it's the beer selection and the food truck choices that what will bring ME back.
If you're more into the live music scene, or enjoying some craft beers while competing in a Trivia Night, here's Newtown Brewing Co's upcoming entertainment schedule.
Newtown Brewing Company's address is
103 Penn's Trail right off the Newtown Bypass in Newtown, Bucks County...
and I recommend that you follow them on their Facebook Page so you don't miss any updates!
Cheers to no-masks sometime soon!
Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer.
Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.” ~ Dave Barry, Humorist and writer.
