Guild Hall Brewing Co. Is Bringing Some Beer Hall Awesomeness to Jenkintown
Downtown Jenkintown (say that ten times fast) is set to have a brewery of its very own as of June 19th.
Guild Hall Brewing Co. will open their restaurant and brewery, Guild Hall, in the historic building that previously housed the Jenkintown Antiques Guild (and, for car buffs, the space that was originally a Rolls-Royce garage). Two years in the making, the restaurant is owned by Owen Hutchins of the General Lafayette Inn, and his wife, Jennifer McGuire. Alongside their own craft beers, made by Hutchins, they’ll be serving a locally-sourced (and pretty extensive) menu covering any and all of your beer hall dream snacks.
Before you scroll down to see the menu, put this one in the datebook: on June 16th (that’s today) they’ll be hosting a preview benefit in partnership with the Jenkintown Library. Brews for Books will run 6 – 9 PM tonight, and will feature half price drinks, menu samplings, and music by Jenkintown’s Alex Bartlett & The Tin Quartet.
Tickets to the event are $18 per person in advanced sale (information here). They will also be available at the door for $20 per person, $10 per person under 21, and free for children under 10. Proceeds benefit the Jenkintown Library.
Okay, now check out the Guild Hall menu:
