Manayunk Brewing Company

Philadelphia, PA
  • Up to 170 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $16,000

Mr. Renner made the decision to keep the original industrial scale for weighing wool, which you can still see inside our front foyer. Our first batch of Manayunk Brewing Company beer was tapped on October 17, 1996. Since then, we have brewed more than 600 different varieties of beers, and have been selling these sought-after styles all around Philadelphia and New Jersey. Our brewers continue to explore new takes on classic styles, especially when it comes to sour ales and India Pale Ales. You will no doubt see our delivery truck bringing goods to happy customers throughout the Philadelphia region! Mr. Renner’s daughter took over the building in 2004 and runs the restaurant and brewery along with her business partner Mike Rose. Since then, they have expanded the restaurant by installing a stone pizza oven and sushi bar, as well as a chic banquet space for weddings and meetings. We’ve also begun to offer kayak tours along the adjacent Schuylkill River during the warm months.

We had our wedding here on 9/29/23 and our wedding day was completely stress free and everything was perfect! Deyna and Paris went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process and helped us with anything we needed along the way. The food was delicious and our guests came up to us multiple times throughout the night to let us know. The signature cocktails we selected also tasted great and the service was top notch. It rained on our wedding day so we did not get to use the deck but the space held all of our 110 guests just fine. We did get to do our first look and pictures outside and the scenery is perfect for wedding photos. Highly recommend Manayunk Brewing Company for your wedding! - Michael & Jordan.

Call and schedule an appointment to see the various ways you can use the LBIF and its many spaces as the canvas to your perfect, one-of-a-kind wedding.

We absolutely loved having LBIF as our venue! We were thankful enough to have s beautiful sunny day so we did our ceremony on the beach, cocktail hour outside LBIF, and reception inside the gallery. The gallery is so beautiful already with the artwork and bistro lighting, so there was no need to add decorations. We had 100 people and there was plenty of room for the guest seating plus a large dance floor. The staff was so kind and allowed us to drop stuff off the day before and pick up the next day. What I love most about this venue is the flexibility. We were trying to work with a budget and had the flexibility to choose the catering, alcohol, dj, coordinator, rentals, and decor all at the price we wanted. Great for a budget couple looking for ways to cut costs.
