About Slate Belt Brewing Company
Slate Belt Brewing Company is a brewpub on Broadway in historic downtown Bangor, Pennsylvania. Its website says it opened in February 2025. Two Lehigh Valley homebrewers teamed up with Slate Belt native Travis Dente, a local chef, to start it.
The website says the brewhouse installation is still in progress. Friends at Weyerbacher and Saucony Creek help bring its signature beers to the tap. The first release was Chronic Freedom Amber IPA, a toast to Bangor's 150th anniversary.
The kitchen cooks scratch-made dishes, and the website says the ingredients are locally sourced. The menu lists whole wings, burgers, pierogi, fish and chips and tacos. A pint sized plates section includes chicken fingers and grilled cheese.
Music is part of the room. The website lists open mic nights and jams, and it calls the place a space where neighbors meet, musicians perform and families feel at home. It is one of the most reviewed beer spots in Bangor on this site.
