Full service restaurant and brewery in a renovated trolley depot, with pre-Civil War history.
Opened in 1989 as the first legal brewery in Kansas in over 100 years. Located in a renovated inter-urban trolly station in historic downtown Lawrence, the Brewery was an early participant in the rejuvenation of the north end of the downtown business district. Led by the renovation and refurbishment of neighboring businesses.
We are proud of the history of brewing in Kansas, and have done our very best to re-establish the tradition of fine hand crafted beers, produced close to home. The 14 Barrel brewhouse is made up of some of the best equipment available to the small brewer, but The Brewery still thinks that the best ingredient is the care and respect that they have for each and every beer that is made. Of course the commitment to quality doesn't stop with the brewhouse, but is equally important to the dedicated and creative kitchen staff that brings you an excellent and varied menu as well as delicious daily specials.
