A first visit to JRB. The menu was succinct on one page but we were impressed with the offerings. The choice of beer, listed light to dark, was commendable and well offered.
We recommend the casarecce pasta and chicken cacciatore but the choices and cuts of meat looked marvelous too.
Make a reservation if you’d like or sit at the bar and enjoy your evening. On Street parking was easy.

Impromptu Date Night…

Finally got the chance to check out a buddy’s restaurant in Williamsport — they’ve been open for a bit now, and I’d been meaning to stop in. Upon entry, we were greeted with great hospitality, generosity, and some easy conversation that set the tone for the night.

The food? Absolutely flawless. Every dish made you want to slow down, savor each bite, or just nibble and appreciate the craftsmanship behind it.

Each bite carried a sense of freshness and perfectly balanced flavor — everything was clockwork and looked incredible on the plateware, even better in person.

The chew on the Dan Dan noodles, the silkiness of the gnocchi, and that crème brûlée… all standouts. Actually, the smooth custard texture of the onsen egg had me locked in too. Scratch that — the whole experience was exactly what I’ve been looking for when it comes to local dining.

Anyways, right to it, we had…

The Geisha & Pineapple Skies Drinks

Asian Pear Salad
Mini Shrimp & Grits
Roasted Brussels w/ Onsen Egg
Parisian Gnocchi
Gyudan w/ Yakiniku Marinated Butcher Filet
Spicy Dan Dan Noodle w/ Pork Tantanmen

Furthermore it was good seeing you John, we will talk again, keep on keeping on! Much appreciated, we loved it!

Wonderful experience from the moment we walked in. Great ambiance, service, and delicious food. This is not your typical brewery menu — every dish we tried felt carefully considered, beautifully balanced, and executed with a chef’s touch.

We started with the Asian pear salad, which was fresh, vibrant, and perfectly seasonal — a light, crisp beginning that set the tone for the meal. The shrimp and grits followed, and it was pure comfort: creamy, rich, and deeply flavorful, with shrimp cooked just right.

One of the unexpected highlights was the roasted Brussels sprouts with onsen egg. The Brussels were caramelized and nutty, but the real star was that egg — silky, perfectly slow-cooked, and complex in flavor, it elevated the entire dish into something memorable. I am still thinking about the egg as we speak.

The Parisian gnocchi was another standout — pillowy soft and served over a squash puree that made it both delicate and satisfying. The gyudan with yakiniku-marinated butcher’s filet showcased the kitchen’s range: tender, perfectly cooked beef with bold, savory depth, balanced by subtle sweetness.

We finished with the spicy Dan Dan noodles with pork tantanme, which brought just the right level of heat and umami richness — hearty, comforting, and absolutely packed with flavor. The noodle was the star of this dish. With the perfect chew to it it was definitely a hit at the table.

To say we were blown away by the food would be an understatement. Honestly, this is one of those spots where the food could hold its own even without the beer. Every dish felt thoughtful and well-executed. If you’re looking for a brewery with a legit food menu, this one’s worth the trip. ✨

John Ryan Brewery is a standout dining experience. Their curated, compact menu speaks to a refined and thoughtful approach — each dish is unique and ever-changing, which keeps every visit fresh and exciting. The atmosphere is the perfect balance: elegant and inviting without pretension. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality dining with character. The portions are appropriate for an al la carte style menu. Truly a treat. Thank you!

My husband and I just had the pleasure of enjoying an amazing Omakase dinner. This is where they prepare a menu for you and you don’t have to make any decisions! When you call to make the reservation, they ask if you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, and they prepare the menu off of those answers.
The food is always absolutely incredible, the service is amazing and the atmosphere couldn’t be more beautiful! We definitely can’t wait to have this experience again!

Let me preface this with I wanted to LOVE this place so badly. I’ve been eyeing it up since it opened, while living in Japan. My husband and I decided to make reservations for our 5-year anniversary when arriving from overseas this past week. Reservations were made online and I made a note that it was our anniversary, hoping maybe they would’ve acknowledged it when we were there. Arriving, they asked if we had a reservation. We said we did, but they couldn’t find it. The hostess asked if we had a confirmation text, and I showed her we did. Still didn’t have us in. Regardless, we were sat anyways but were sat in a basement, at the very last table. I think if it were just a fun date night, whatever, but it was our anniversary and I would’ve loved upstairs in a nicer environment. Coming from Japan, I was missing Asian food, and opted for the “spicy Dan Dan noodles”. Big mistake. They were nothing like the Dan Dan in Asia and I was SO fully disappointed in it. It was severely lacking protein, creaminess and spice. I really wish I chose something else. My husband got the burger and it was a bit dry. The fries were great. Arancini delicious too. We loved our server! All in all, I’m disappointed in the service (not knowing our reservation when confirmed via text and email, not acknowledging our special request), and I don’t know if we’d give this place another chance. ;(

Wow what an incredible place to visit and enjoy a meal! I travel a lot of work and this is my go to place when I visit Williamsport. As of writing this review this was my third time visiting John Ryan Brewery for dinner and I must say the consistency of service quality, food and drink is on point. I recommend their Dan Dan Noodles and the Petite Filet. The beer is really good and love their cocktails. I recommend the fruited French Saison and the “I want you” cocktail. The service quality is impeccable and I always felt welcomed and engaged as a guest from the staff.

Where do I start. You walk in, atmosphere and ambiance is perfectly balanced with the modern contemporary simplistic design. The preserved architecture catches your eye and is just a constant pleasure to observe. Our server was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. Then the drinks and food arrive. Everything was delicious. Perfectly cooked and reasonably priced mind you. Flavors linger in your mouth long after each bite. I honestly have nothing bad to say. This place has achieved a harmony. And I will be returning, often.

I desperately wanted to give five stars, but after consideration, it is not warranted. The first thing is the waitress, who was very nice, completely forgot that I had ordered two appetizers. When she came back with the wine, she asked if we wanted an appetizer.
I immediately reminded her that I’d already ordered them and began to tell her the two dishes when she cut me off, saying she was sure she put it in but hadn’t written it down.
When the Brussels came out without the Octopus, I assumed maybe it was going to come out. It never did. So now she missed what I ordered not once, but twice. I really wanted to try the Octopus too.
As others have stated the portions tend to be small and the Brussels were no exception.
I know that this is actually an appropriate portion but for two of us it went quickly. It was very good.
If we’d had the second one I might not have thought of the small portions.
The entrees came and they were pretty and good but the portions disappointed again. There were five smaller scallops, and a duck leg. Not a leg and a thigh or a breast, but just a leg.
They were both well executed and delicious.
They had run out of the tiramisu, which is silly because it was only 7:30. Make more for Saturday nights.
Overall, the place was beautiful but it’s overrated. There are other options nearby that are a better value for the money.
