If you're looking for something off the touristy beat and path this is your place. Good service, great selection of beer. This place gets an A in the small, local dive bar.

Dropped by around 7:30 on a Saturday night and was able to snag a couple of stools at the bar. Ordered a few delicious beers, as well as a couple cubano sandwiches and hot wings. The hot wings were pretty spicy (6/10) with quality (10/10). They were meaty and delicious! The fries were delish and the cubanos were decent and very meat-filled! My husband wished that they had a bigger variety of beers on tap, but several were sold out by the time we got here. (But that's our fault because we got here after the ski/snowboard crowd.)The live music was a huge plus. The Boswell Project rocked our requests! This place seems VERY family friendly, which was greatly appreciated by the patrons! We will be returning.

Spent the evening of January 1st here and I only wish I would've arrived sooner. Great atmosphere, good beer, and the owner is a heck of a guy. I will definitely have to come back to try the food and have another crack at those puzzles!

Rick was so friendly and really made the bar welcoming. As soon as we came inside, he greeted us and gave us a rundown of the beers on tap, and his descriptions were spot-on. I loved their beer so much that I couldn’t leave without one of their glasses! Don’t pass this place up. Go in, soak up the rustic atmosphere, try their beers, and say hello to Rick for me. I’ll definitely be back!

Stumbled upon this place on a Tuesday afternoon. The snow makes you crave an ice cold beer. I would love to come and see live music here, as this place definitely has a great vibe for it. The beer was great, we got the honeybuzz ale, wish we tried more. The service was even better, super laid back and welcoming. Definitely will come back and try the food, instead of side eyeing the deliciousness the people around us got.

My 5 friends and I came here as a last ditch effort after being denied at every restaurant in the main town area. It was Presidents' Day weekend, so everything was packed and full! We drove here and were immediately seated and the vibes couldn't have been better. The staff were all super friendly and even gave games and puzzles for us to entertain ourselves. There was live music and the singer that night was unreal and soooo talented!! The food was on the pricier side but everything tasted great. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back the next trip to Big Bear!

Burger tasted like burger patty from Costco, but cost $20. Ordering was done self-service with QR code, which is fine by me, but service fees included automatic tip, ok fine, but why did I get charged a fee for “band and memorabilia”??? There was no band playing. Business motto should be, “You don’t get what you pay for”?

Delicious food, amazing service, great beer, space for the dogs and fun entertainment and games! Thank you for the stickers, loved our quick stop at big bear mountain brewery.
Great food, beer, and service!! Excited to check out the ambiance at tomorrow's open mic night! The puzzles and great host, Rick, made it a great rainy day fix to a poor day on the slopes!

Okay first things first... this place was interesting. Clean and not too loud inside. I expected more of a crowd and noise but it was a calm experience. The way you had to order was pretty unique. You placed the order by QR code and waited for the food or drink(s). The water was delicious. Some great well water. The service was good. The male serving was very accommodating. The price seemed a bit expensive for wings. It was tasteful. The fries were good. They had a couple of homemade sauces to dip the fries in. I only had a chance to try the barbecue sauce. I wanted to try the ranch but it was a bit hard to get a hold of the only server once people started to come in. This place was okay for a small bite. There were 5 adults and a child in our party. I didn't feel as if there was much to choose from to eat. And they didn't have a blonde on tap to drink. They did have a beer that three people at my table ordered and they liked. I believe it was called Legendary. Not too many beers to choose from for a bar type place

A must visit when in Big Bear! Serving great beer and a great atmosphere. Best burger I've ever had, hands down
