Cinderlands Beer Co. is a Craft Brewery & Scratch Kitchen focused on bright, beautiful beers, and unique beer inspired food, prepared in an open kitchen. As a counterpoint to Long Story Short, our neighborhood bar and sandwich shop, The Warehouse is all about big ideas. Beers that we produce here are as assertive as they are balanced. Food that we prepare here is hearty and seasonal. The atmosphere is vibrant and energetic. The Warehouse features a 15bbl production brewery, lagering tanks, and canning line, overseen by head brewer, Paul Schneider, and a 3000 square foot kitchen, run by Executive Chef Joe Kiefer, with a 400 lb smoker, dedicated prep area, and banquet area. With seasonally available seating for up to 300 guests, the Warehouse manages to invite lots of folks in without ever seeming crowded. Bring your friends down to enjoy some games on our first floor, complete with a built-in Bocce court, dome hockey, shuffleboard and more. Can’t wait to see you.
“Located in an older building a few blocks past the end of the strip district that I remember as The Spaghetti Warehouse back in the day. The beer is very good with a nice selection from lagers to stouts and pretty much everything in between. Parking can be a bit of a challenge in the area.”
“There’s something quietly special about an afternoon at Cinderlands Warehouse—the kind of place where time softens and moments feel fuller. From the moment you sit down, the space wraps you in a warm, industrial charm—high ceilings, soft lighting, and an easy hum of conversation that never feels overwhelming. It’s lively without being loud, stylish without trying too hard. The kind of atmosphere that invites you to stay a little longer than you planned. What stands out most isn’t just the food or drinks—though both are thoughtfully done—it’s how the space holds connection. A quiet glance toward a sleeping baby in a stroller, a shared drink between friends, a table scattered with plates mid-conversation. It feels real. Unrushed. Human. The natural light pouring through the windows adds a softness to everything—the food, the faces, the feeling. Whether you’re there for a casual bite, a drink, or simply to be present with the people you care about, it delivers something more meaningful than just a meal. Cinderlands Warehouse isn’t just a place you go—it’s a place you experience. And somehow, it turns even the simplest moments into something worth remembering.”
“Yesterday was first time at this Amazing place! Sam, Hugo, Kate, and everyone else on staff was phenomenal. I felt like I was a part of a really great family! Dunkel Lager was awesome and the cheese curds, Buffalo Chicken Dip, and Crunch Wrap were beyond perfect and obviously Fresh made every time! Kudos to a marvelous team and environment! LOVE!”
“My absolute favorite place to visit for a beer when I’m in the Strip District. Their buffalo chicken dip is also one of the best I’ve had. I’ve also attended plenty of events here that they put on and it’s always enjoyable. Always a great atmosphere! I highly recommend checking out Cinderlands!”
“My husband and I have spent so many nights at Cinderlands and always want to come back because of the great food and better beer. We even got married here and it was genuinely the best decision we made. The event coordinator, Kate, is absolutely fantastic to work with. She is incredibly kind, responsive, and experienced. All of the staff that worked that night as well were absolutely wonderful. There was never a line at the bar for drinks and were extremely accommodating to us and our guests the entire night. Multiple times they came up to us asking what we wanted to drink which was so appreciated when we didn’t have time to go to the bar when talking to guests. Beyond that, the space is BEAUTIFUL. With the string lights, exposed brick, and outdoor patio, it was the perfect setting for end of summer wedding. Everything is included as well so you don’t have to worry about renting chairs, tables, place settings, bringing in catering or booze… etc for the big day. Also very affordable!! Can’t say enough great things about Cinderlands. It will always hold a special place in our hearts.”
