This is an awesome brewery with amazing food. The staff are amazing and helpful. The food was awesome the Buffalo wings are amazing and huge no small wings here will definitely be back for more. I believe they change some food around on the menu every month so your never going to get the same old food each time you come. But everything we ordered was amazing. Don’t take my word come and try them out you will not be disappointed. You will also leave full. Will definitely be back to try more food and beers. I wish I could tell you about the desserts unfortunately I was too full but they looked

While visiting Rehoboth Beach for an overnight during a cold winter weekend, Thompson Island Brewing Company provided an excellent outdoor patio heated tent during the pandemic. Here's our experience:
1) Drinks: We went during happy hour and ordered their sour, which is one of my favorite sours of all time. It is more sweet with notes of cherries and Swedish fish. Doing Dry January, my wife ordered a non-alcoholic beer from Athletic Brewing Company and really enjoyed it (maybe more than regular beer).
2) Food: They have a full menu. Being happy hour, we ordered the lettuce wraps and spam sushi

The service is outstanding, the food excellent and I loved every single beer in my flight and that NEVER happens! We are locals who visit in the off season and have been waiting to visit until it was a bit slower and man, I wish we had been in sooner, I feel like we have been missing out! We will be back soon for more great beer and good eats!

Such a great restaurant! The food was delicious and the drinks were great. We sat outdoor in the back of the restaurant and it was perfect. Plenty of outdoor space and a great vibe.
We came to try the beer and ordered appetizers/small bites and were pleasantly surprised by the serving sizes. The pork cracklings were a big hit and the frozen watermelon raspberry sour - let’s just say I ordered two.

TLDR: Great restaurant in Rehoboth. I’d classify it as a must-visit if you’re in the area. The food is good and so is the drinks. I loved the modern atmosphere. And the trip to this restaurant was overall worth it.
Pork Lo mean (9/10): No complaints with this dish. I loved the sauce which was sweet and spicy. The noodles were crispy and I found the meal to be quite authentic to something you’d find in Chinatown. The pork belly was delicious, but I wish that there was more included.
Didn’t taste, but these are my friends’ ratings:
Roasted pork sandwich (8/10): This sandwich depends

The location with its outdoor space is so beautiful. They have some games set up and lots of spots to eat. You can bring your pet and it will get water and some cuddles from the waiter. All in all a great setting.
The food is ok, I had a burger which alone would only earn 3 stars. Not bad at all, but at the same time nothing out of the ordinary. However, my wife had a cold tuna steak with salad and that must have been a 6 out of 5. So it really depends on your taste and your order to judge the food.
It is definitely a spot I recommend - it is also not that crazy crowded like the spots downtown
