How do I add a brewery locator to WordPress?

Add your taprooms and retail stockists in Maptera, copy the embed snippet, and paste it into a Custom HTML block or shortcode on a "Visit Us" or "Where to Buy" page. Maptera is a hosted embed — no plugin to install and no Google Maps API key to manage.

Can I show both my taproom and stores that sell my beer?

Yes. Tag locations by type — taproom, brewpub, or retail stockist — and let visitors filter the map. Your own taprooms and the shops, bars, and grocers that carry your beer or wine can live on the same "where to buy" map.

Can visitors filter by features like food, tours, or growler fills?

Yes. Add custom attributes for on-site features such as food/kitchen, brewery or winery tours, growler fills, outdoor seating, and dog-friendly, so visitors can find a location that fits the visit they want.

Is there a free brewery locator for WordPress?

Yes. Maptera's free-forever plan covers up to 10 locations with the map, search, geocoding, and SEO location pages. Breweries and wineries with wider distribution can use Pro ($17.99/month, 100 locations) or Enterprise ($59/month, unlimited).

How to Add a Brewery & Winery Locator to WordPress

Breweries and wineries live on two kinds of foot traffic: visits to the taproom or tasting room, and bottles bought wherever their product is distributed. A store locator handles both — a map of your own locations plus a "where to buy" finder for the bars, bottle shops, and grocers that stock you. Here's how to add one to WordPress with Maptera, with no plugin or API key.

Why Breweries & Wineries on WordPress Need a Locator

Craft beer and wine fans actively hunt for "breweries near me" or "wineries near me" and want to know which local spots carry their favorite labels. If you run taprooms or tasting rooms and distribute through retailers, a locator on your WordPress site connects that demand to a real-world visit.

Taprooms & tasting rooms: Help fans find your nearest location, with hours and features.
Distribution "where to buy": Show bars, bottle shops, and grocers that carry your beer or wine.
Events & releases: Highlight beer gardens, vineyards, and pop-up locations.

Hosted Embed vs. a Native WordPress Plugin

Most WordPress store-locator plugins require a Google Maps API key, billing setup, and ongoing updates. Maptera is a hosted embed instead, so maps, geocoding, and search run inside the widget — no API key, no plugin conflicts, just a snippet you paste once.

Brewery- & Winery-Specific Filtering

With Maptera, add custom attributes so the locator answers what visitors actually ask:

Location type: Taproom, brewpub, tasting room, or retail stockist.
On-site features: Food/kitchen, tours, growler fills, outdoor seating, dog-friendly.
Product availability: Which labels, seasonals, or vintages a stockist carries.
Service options: Crowlers to go, curbside pickup, live music or event nights.

Adding the Locator to WordPress with Maptera

Add locations in the Maptera dashboard (or import a spreadsheet with the CSV geocoder), copy the snippet, and paste it into a Custom HTML block on a "Visit Us" or "Where to Buy" page. See the embed install guide and our broader WordPress store locator guide. For a wider overview, see our breweries & wineries solution.

Maptera auto-generates an indexable SEO location page for each location with LocalBusiness structured data and a sitemap entry, helping you rank for "breweries near me," "winery in [city]," and "where to buy [your brand]." Compare plans on the pricing page.
