Craft Hall

Brunch was great, and the space is fantastic. I went specifically because it was kid friendly. Even on a busy Saturday morning, the staff was fab and the kids were easy. I wish there were more things like this in philly.

Craft Hall isn't just family friendly--it's family INTENDED. More than half of the patrons on a Saturday afternoon had children with them, and it's clear why: there are tons of fun activities to occupy kids (pirate ship play area; video games; pop-a-shot basketball game; tether ball; pool table; shuffle board and probably more that I didn't see) while the adults enjoy a beer (brewed on site) and a bite to eat (all locally sourced). The place is enormous and has tons of tables; the staff was very friendly; the food was outstanding; the beer was really good. It leans to the pricey side, however when you consider all the fun things for kids to do that otherwise don't cost any extra (think Dave and Busters), it's completely reasonable. We can't wait to go back and are seriously considering having our baby's first birthday party there.

Amazing space, super excited to go back to experience more.
Compared to the old Yards space, it is MASSIVE! Easily 3x-4x the size. The space has the brewery behind windows, a large bar in front of it, the bakery, a kitchen (arrived after 10pm so kitchen was closed), and a surprise dance floor/stage/playground (playground for earlier in the day!). While I was there, a live cover band was playing and a large amount of people were enjoying and dancing. There's many many tables all around the space, and a bunch of couches at the front. It's laid out to be a fantastic place to hang out for hours.

Only had one beer and it was perfectly fine - not amazing but perfectly fine. I'd have to come and have more to fully evaluate.

Overall, the space is amazing and I'm excited to try all the food and drink further.
