“Clean and spacious, sometimes the floor plan calls for a narrow defile but the high ceilings and windows really open it up. Great selection, looked to be about thirty taps with a few bottles more, the standard V lineup plus seasonals that rotate through all locations plus three-five unique to this Kennett Square location. The food is a little different, had some nice German fusion today, there's usually something with mushrooms owing to location, and several pan sauces and reductions using house beer. A kitchen like this is a big bonus. Had a great bartender today, knowledgeable and professional, and there seems to be a good community vibe from the locals (who obviously love the place and return frequently). Easy to find with plenty of parking in back but the lot might require a circle of the block (or violation of a DNE). Had a good one on nitro today, will be back next time I make the Mushroom Festival or visit Longwood Gardens. [2018.08.23: 86]“

“We came here on 15.4.2017. Small Victory brewpub we found by coincidence while we were driving to Philly. Everything was perfect as expected from a Victory location. Around 30 beers on tap, some of them are brewed on the premises. When we came they had 4 beers brewed specially for the Craft Brewer’s Conference which took place last week in D.C. Food and service was excellent. Highlight was the Hop Devil from the hand pump. Amazing beer!“

“Birfday road trip part 2! Pub type ambience, which i like. Good service, nice selection. Stuffs you dont see in MD. like Capt. Larrys, Daisy Cutter and others. I stuck with the 2SP stuffs which were decent. Friendly locals are always a nice touch. We had some garlic parmesan frys to munch on also, decent. Fairly clean pissery too. I like the smaller servings you get a the 2SP pubs also. Prices were okay as once again the wifey paid! Definitely worth a stop! Thanks honey!“

“Birthday road trip! Thanks honey! Did lunch, place was pretty quiet. Long bar, lotsa tables and chairs also. Sat at the bar. Server was friendly, fairly knowledgeable and attentive. Nice tap selection, 30 or so? We did a flight, mostly Gose style. Lunch was just munchy stuffs, pretzel and some type of skewered chicken with a neat kimchi dish. Beers were yummy as was the food. Good service and fair prices. Not sure what it all cost cuz my funny little honey paid for it! Beers and swag stuff to go at the entrance. Music at a decent volume, TV was quiet. Clean pissery as with all Victory pubs. Worth a stop for sure.“

“Large and bright, not really an open feel but cherry enough as a lot of sunlight enters the bar and seating areas. A literal fuckton of taps, and as one would expect, the beers are of excellent quality. Lots of core offering, but also some new stuff and some unusual stuff. 5 ounce pours are $2-3. I had a hot dog covered in crab and slaw which was affordable and tasty. Bartender was friendly but not very attentive. Some retail to go to the side. I probably prefer the original location, but this is a nice place.“

“A brewpub that knows how to cook is a wonderful thing! A very long bar with like 22 taps of their wonderful beers. The food is great and the place is staffed with lots of friendly, knowledgeable kids. Their fries are wonderful, but try the watermelon Gazpacho soup, and their pan seared Brussels sprouts. very, very nice. We will be back.“

“Big long open bar as soon as you walk in, 20+ taps? All Victory, no guest taps..... Couple brew pub only which makes it worth a trip. We sat at a table towards the back. Food was good and the prices are even better. Looks like they have a growler station and to go beer towards the opposite end. Service was average, but they are still new and working out the kinks. We came on a Sat night which was the Derby and Paq/Mayweather fight. Busy but the place was crazy loud. Not sure if that was why but looks like the rating before me agrees with that statement. Parking is fairly easy in the back. Overall cool place I will be back“

“new spot in Kennett Square, occupies the bottom level of a new brick building that on the outside has an old feel look to it...inside things are wide open with a long bar as the focal point, hi tops and tables flank both sides of the space..like how they serve samplers and they do have 22 plus taps with a wide variety..food was very good..everything sampled was well done..liked the pretzel, beer cheese, chicken sandwich, fries. There pickles are very tasty as well. Biggest knock on the place is that iit is very loud, music is too loud, no real noise muffles of any kind and when it is packed one probably can’t hear a conversation at all. Overall food and beer were enjoyable and it is nice to be able to fill a growler, pick up some specialty offerings as well..“

“Newest two stones location. Stopped by on a Sunday night...6ish. Located in a shopping center. Small outside patio area. Bar area as soon as you walk in. Tables/dining area in the back... looks like they have more space than the Newark location (table wise) Draft list was good... some nice additions that are not available in DE. Food is good, service is good, beer is pricey. Nice place“

“Cool atmosphere, good crowd, and a cool staff. Lots of nice people here. Food is pretty damn good pub food with some creative and tasty specials but not many options if you hope to cut any calories. Lotta salt, cholesterol, and fat...and tons of flavor. Very nice draft list and a respectable bottle/can list as well. Prices are very high though unless you hit a happy hour.“

“latest 2SP location in a shopping plaza off busy rt 1 in kennett. Same formula basically as the other locations with a few differences. Biggest positive here is the ability to get beers not available in DE, such as Founders, Bells, Russian River, Avery to name a few. Selection is much better, food menu is essentially the same. Bar setup seems a little smaller and the back dining room area seems a bit dark and dungeon like. For the most part this is the same equation but with better beer offerings and stays open later. Definitely worth a stop if in the area and looking for a solid craft beer bar with consistently tasty pub grub. Recently had Maharaja, Breakfast Stout and Two Hearted on draft to name a few of the highlights...Reserve bottle pricing and can/bottle selection is solid also..“

“Big place! Nice selection and a real helpful staff, pleasant also. Easy to get to and plenty of parking. Several beer that are unavailable to me in merlund, 30 minutes away.They had no problem taking my name and ordering a case of Alesmith for me either. After a little checking it seems the pricing may be a tad high but not too far out of line. Selection makes up for it. Nice vintage selection also. I,ll be stoppin back. I also agree with Mr. Watson. Get rid of that damn case law and my 150 bucks would get me a much better selection! Update 9/22/17 Case laws be damned! Singles, 6ers and other pack sizes available now! Great selection and now the convenience of singles. Bumps this score up a few!“

“Excellent selection, carry all of the quality brands that can’t be found in neighboring states. Well worth the drive, only downside is having to get everything by the case.“

“Stoped in on a slow tuesday afternoon... Was looking for some two hearted but they just sold out... They do have a nice selection. Some west coast stuff that I cant get in my area. Ex. Alesmith, Bells, Lost Abbey, Russian River... All the regular east coast (local) line up.... Easy to get to, decent parking area. Service is friendly and seem to know their stuff.“

“this is one of the best beer distributers in my area! oustanding knowlegeable and friendly staff. the selection is incredible...if its available in PA they either have it or will order it for you. sixtel selection is huge and lots of micros and imports. prices are very fair...no price gouging here. As soon as PA lets distrubters sell singles and sixpacks this place will likely have a phenomenal bottle selection.“
