Ellicott Mills Brewing Company

Nestled in the heart of Historic Ellicott City, Ellicott Mills Brewing Co. offers the Finest Food & the Finest Beer in one of the most beautiful historic districts in the state of Maryland.
Brewing is a time honored art form. Our aim is simple: to craft a clean and smooth tasting draught using the most authentic methods and ingredients available from around the globe.
Ellicott Mills Brewing Co. is much more than a brewery though, we are a dining experience. The executive chef/owner combines American Grill and an eclectic cuisine with a European accent.
With the combination of the Finest Food & the Finest Beer, we have established the East Coast's premiere restaurant-brewery.

"Food is good as always but they do not use open table so even though I received an email confirming my reservation for 8 people, the restaurant did not know of the reservation. The manager was not helpful in rectifying the situation."

"Amazing beer with average food--pretty typical for a brewpub. Skip the average restaurant upstairs and have some crab dip and a beer in the awesome basement bar."

"I have only eaten here twice in recent years. Both times the food, energy level, and service has been fine. I have found, though, that the chairs used at their tables upstairs are extremely uncomfortable to sit in for a longer period of time. Both times I was there my husband and I were meeting old friends and wanted to catch up with one another. We were given plenty of time to do so, but I was so uncomfortable from sitting in these chairs that my back hurt terribly. This has NEVER happened at any restaurant we have been to and occurred on both occasions that we hate here. . . . so it has to be the chairs."
