Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in Salt Lake Magazine. Updated July 2026.
Squatters Pub Brewery Downtown SLC · Downtown
Squatters helped establish Utah's modern brewpub culture and still pairs a broad house beer list with a full downtown kitchen. The taps move through approachable lagers, hop forward ales, darker styles, and seasonal releases. Its brick dining room is useful when a group wants local beer, substantial food, and table service in one stop.
Fisher Brewing Company · Granary District
Fisher revived a historic Utah beer name as a neighborhood brewery in the Granary District. The tap list changes frequently, giving regulars a reason to return for new pale ales, lagers, stouts, and experimental pours. Food trucks outside and communal tables inside preserve the casual, production brewery character of the room.
Bewilder Brewing Co · Central 9th
Bewilder combines a working brewhouse with a kitchen that takes sausages and pub food seriously. House lagers, ales, and rotating specialties are poured within sight of the tanks, while the menu provides pretzels, sandwiches, and meatier pairings. The downtown location feels relaxed enough for one pint but complete enough for dinner.
Kiitos Brewing · Granary District
Kiitos pours its beer in a colorful west side taproom attached to the production brewery. The lineup covers crisp lagers, hop driven releases, dark beers, and playful limited batches, with pinball machines adding to the informal atmosphere. It is a practical stop for sampling across styles without the structure of a full service brewpub.
Level Crossing Brewing Company · Post District
Level Crossing's downtown taproom serves a wide house beer range alongside pizza and compact pub fare. Hazy and West Coast leaning IPAs share the board with lagers, stouts, and seasonal releases. The polished industrial room keeps the brewing equipment visible while offering enough seating for a meal, a flight, or a longer group visit.
