About Us

Some bars have character. Five Dimes Brewery has personality to spare. Rated 4.4 stars by over 230 guests, this downtown Westwood spot has earned its reputation the old-fashioned way: pour by pour, pint by pint. The taproom feels like the kind of place you stumble onto and end up staying three hours longer than planned, with a vibe that reviewers consistently describe as reminiscent of the great craft breweries you'd find far outside New Jersey.

Every beer on tap is brewed in-house, which means what you're drinking was crafted right here, not shipped from a warehouse. The space pulls double duty as a lively gathering spot, with live music nights and multiple TVs giving sports fans and music lovers equal reason to show up. Guests rave about the friendly staff who make first-timers feel like regulars and regulars feel like family.

Five Dimes is part of a growing New Jersey craft beer story, with locations in Westwood, Red Bank, and a Point Pleasant taproom arriving Spring 2026. Whatever brought you through the door, the beer will bring you back.

What We Offer

The taproom at 247 Westwood Ave. is the heart of the operation. Pull up a stool, scan the rotating tap list, and let the bartender walk you through what's fresh. There's no pressure, just good beer and good conversation. Food isn't served in-house, but the brewery works seamlessly with nearby restaurants, so you can order in and settle in for the night.

Planning something worth celebrating? Five Dimes handles private and group event hosting, making it a genuinely fun alternative to the standard banquet hall. Think birthday parties, corporate happy hours, or any occasion that deserves a craft beer backdrop instead of a cash bar with mediocre wine.

Can't make it out? The online shop lets you take a piece of Five Dimes home. Browse available merchandise and packaged beer options at fivedimesbrewery.com and keep the taproom energy going on your own terms.

"If you’re anywhere near Westwood, this spot needs to be on your radar. Solid atmosphere, friendly staff that make you feel right at home, and the beer? Brewed in-house and absolutely top-tier. You can tell they know what they’re doing. Live music on Fridays and Saturdays adds the perfect vibe, great place to unwind with the crew. Highly recommend. Jen is a talented bartender with a great personality and a welcoming vibe. Look for her if you hit this place."

"Second time here. Definitely a fun place with live music and great beer. We came here for a Sunday Funday and that’s what we got. No food served bc it’s a brewery so we ordered from the pizza place next door. The bartender was super nice. The band That’s what She Sang gave the perfect vibe for our Sunday Funday. We will be back maybe next time with the guys."

"Decorative brewery reminiscent of breweries outside of NJ, located in downtown Westwood. I am surprised they are able to show multiple TVs but the town must be more lenient than other NJ towns. Outside seats, long bar, back section for parties and upstairs too. Really cool place. As for beers, yeah decent but still working thru kinks compared to other long standing NJ breweries. That being said, definitely nice place to hangout"

"Definitely what the downtown Westwood area needed! This brewery is well crafted, just like their beers. The vibe is really neat and the atmosphere inside is fantastic. I loved the names of the beers as it portrayed a very local feel. They do allow kids, which is great for people with kids to get out, but a tad annoying for people that don't. The building is made of brick so sound bounces and it makes it very loud inside. Almost to the point where is wasn't easy to talk to someone at your own table, thus having kids running around was not an issue on a busy Friday night. It was too cold to check out the rooftop upstairs but I'm sure that would have made for a more intimate date night feel. Overall, super impressed with the location, beer quality, selection and freshness, as well as the amazing staff to serve you. Parking is a tad tricky on the weekends, but if you don't mind walking a few blocks it's fine."
