      Even though Granite City Food & Brewery now has over 30 locations throughout the Midwest and beyond, this St. Cloud location was the first (and thus, we believe, the best, naturally). Seasonal brews are featured throughout the year, but there are six signature beers that can be enjoyed year round. Plus, you don’t have to worry about getting the munchies mid-sipping. Granite City Food & Brewery has an extensive offering of American fare, including flatbreads, burgers, salads, sandwiches and more.
