Don’t leave many reviews but this place deserves it. Some of the best pizza I have had anywhere. The wood fire brick oven is fantastic. Their beer and other food is also great. Greek salad and mushrooms rock. Highly recommend this spot.

Amazing pizza, great hospitality and service. On a weekend vacation we ate here twice. Beers did not disappoint either. If you're passing through, or making a trip to Murphy, be sure to stop in and grab a pizza.

Love this place!! I almost ordered extra cheese on my pizza, but I'm glad I didn't. It would have been too much!

We had an early dinner here for the first time since living here in Murphy for over four years. And wow - I can’t believe it took us so long to try this amazing place out! We started with an appetizer of Fried Avocados, which was one of the specials of the day. Those were EPIC! Then we shared a burger with onion rings and an order of their Shrimp and Chips (hand-cut fries). And when I say that everything was cooked to perfection and beyond delicious, that’s an understatement! We had such a delightful experience - between the food, our sweet, kind, attentive and accommodating waiter Nick - simply wonderful. The atmosphere was really fun too - super laid back and also decorated really great. Plenty of seating, from regular tables to a bar and high top tables as well. Just an all around fabulous place to eat. Oh and the prices were very reasonable as well! Love, love, love Valley River Brewery! We’ll be regulars from here on out! Highly recommend!

We stopped here a few years ago and have been making special trips back once in a while. the pizza is fantastic, like homemade with a perfect crust. they always have some interesting desserts that change from visit to visit. my husband likes to try the different beers on tap. staff is very friendly and if not busy they are happy to talk a bit. In downtown Murphy so the location is good.

We wound up at Valley River Brewery, if not by accident, then not entirely on purpose. During our "beat the heat" get away in the North Georgia mountains we headed up to Hayesville, NC to check out the two craft breweries there but I neglected to check on their hours. One wasn't open at all that day and the other didn't open until 4 PM. As there isn't that much to do right in Hayesville and it was lunchtime, we headed west along US Highway 64 to Murphy where I had already checked that Valley River Brewery was open and, better yet, they also served food. Murphy is actually quite a bit bigger than Hayesville and has a beautiful, quaint, old southern town look and feel to the downtown area and Valley River sits right at one end of it. Per usual, we sat at the bar and had a delightful running conversation with the bartender regarding both the beers and the food. While they specialize in wood fired pizza, we were not in a pizza mood and we both wound up ordering a cup of (different) soup and sharing the soft pretzel and beer cheese. I will observe the beer cheese was as tasty as I've had most anywhere, and we order this a lot. I also particularly liked their Amber Light Red Ale, and the Hiawassee Golden Pale Ale was also a worthy beer, especially on a warm summer day. If you're in Murphy looking to grab a bit and a craft beer, don't neglect this place.

Had an awesome first half of an afternoon here. Best fish and chips we’ve had in years. The Sunshine IPA was amazing. Had lots of it. :) Incredibly friendly service. Restaurant was fantastically clean. We will definitely return every time we are in the area.

I'm not a beer drinker, but I was told the selection was very good. As far as the food, wow. Very good! The fried mushrooms were probably the best I've ever had. The small salad was the perfect size to make it feel like I ate something healthy. And it was very good. Field greens, not iceberg or romaine like most places would have. The pizza was a solid "good." Lots of toppings and, trust me, you don't need to ask for extra cheese. Cooked perfectly in that wood fired oven, too. We got a special of the day, which was a 14 inch with five free toppings. And absolutely don't leave without checking out the dessert area. Everything was homemade. We took ours to go because we were so full. But I really wanted the fried cheesecake and didn't think that would transfer well "to go " The music was excellent and our server was fun. Overall, I give the place 5 stars! We would definitely come back when we're back in the area.
