Motorworks Brewing, Bradenton's first craft brewery, is situated in a beautiful old Hudson dealership built in the 20's and home to Florida's largest Beer Garden. We have 30 craft beers on tap alongside an extensive wine collection and full liquor bar.
We provide an alternative to your typical wedding venue and your wedding should be anything but typical. We offer:
- A modern industrial atmosphere (original brick and wood dating back to the building's Prohibition-era construction)
- A beautiful outdoor setting under the shade of a massive 250-year-old oak tree
- Extensive entertainment options (live music, cornhole, bocce ball, giant Jenga and more)
- Beverage & catering options to fulfill your every need
- Ability to host large groups (Space? Oh, we've got space.)
- Exposed metal beams, duct work, and wood-planked ceiling for a distinct vibe
- Unmatched brewery views
- Did we mention the beer? We've won over 25 awards for our delicious craft brews
Motorwork's Brewery not only has some of the best local beers in Florida and the Greater Tampa Bay area their staff, service and especially their event coordinate Kali deserve 10 stars!!! My husband and I currently reside in Tampa, FL and recently got married on 2/9/2019 in the Bradenton Area. All of our guests were from out of state (NJ, NY, OH,AZ, KS, New England) and we really wanted to give them a great weekend away to celebrate our marriage. To find a location for 80+ folks on a Friday, in February (prime season in FL) and with a cool laid back atmosphere seemed like an impossible task on top of planning our wedding. The second we connected with Kali at Motorworks Brewery her positive, professional, caring approach put us immediately at ease. She helped us customize our event EXACTLY how we pictured it. The Brewery has several food trucks they partner with and we really wanted to offer our guest Cuban food since my family was Cuban and guess what- Kali helped us make that a reality!! She went above and beyond helping us find the right caterer, placing orders and truly customizing our event. We had multiple emails, visits, etc leading up to it and also all while she had her own wedding! Day of, when we arrived the staff at Motorworks, the location, the service blew us away-it was more perfect than I could have imagined! All of our guests were so impressed and allowed everyone to unwind in the warm FL weather, enjoy a local beer and kick off our wedding weekend. I can not recommend Motorworks Brewery enough to anyone that wants to host an event or even grab a casual beer if you are in town! The live music was perfect, our ring bearer even enjoyed in on the fun.
Thank you Kali and team for making this such a memorable evening for us!
Karina and Kyle

Pond Rehersal Dinner 10/05/18
When we were searching for a rehearsal dinner venue we wanted a location that was relaxing and laid back for our bridal party. When we found Motorworks Brewery on Wedding Wire we knew we would a perfect match! We went with a backyard BBQ theme and had our dinner catered through Sonny's BBQ. We chose this option as there was yard games to play, a live band and full bar for our Guests to enjoy. The food was delicious and our Guests were complimenting it the entire evening. We had a few Guests that hit traffic coming to the venue, the Sonny's staff went above and beyond making plates for our Guests and keeping it warm until they arrived! I highly recommend Motorworks for anyone looking for a laid back and fun rehearsal dinner location!
