WORCESTER, MA —A popular brewery in Worcester has officially reopened after months of renovation and expansion.

Wormtown Brewery's Worcester Tap Room reopened on Saturday after it had been closed for renovations since July 2025. The work nearly doubled the tap room's size from 4,500 square feet to more than 8,600 square feet, creating space for 300 guests.

The new and improved brewery is offering more communal seating and 16 taps in total, along with a full kitchen featuring a new menu of comfort food. There will also be nine high-definition televisions around the business at 72 Shrewsbury St.
