42 Best Craft Breweries near Carlsbad

“great customer service and and good Knowledge of all the beers“

“Outstanding in every way!“

“always a great time, Wednesday trivia nights are brilliant“

“I thought it was enjoyable. Not only the beer, but the brewery itself was unique. They did have a food vendor in the front, but I did not eat. They have mostly indoor, and a couple picnic tables outside which. It’s hard to compare this location with the other burgeon locations because they are all so different. Wish they would offer a Happy Hour or a featured/discounted beer like how Harland and Pizzaport does.“

“What a great end to the day! Meatball app to start. Could have used a straw to get the rest of the sauce it was so good. Kid got cheese pizza, girl got beautiful burger and I got delicious fish tacos. So many more items to try I hope I can go back. This beer menu is huge. My go to is strawberry blonde when I can find it. But kudos to a brewery that does sours too. I need a second maybe third trip to this brewery.“

“Had a great dinner, our server Greg was amazing! Will definitely be back“

“Karl Strauss Brewing Company is a great place to enjoy craft beer and a delicious meal. The beer selection has something for every taste, the food is fresh and flavorful, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Friendly service and a fun vibe make it an easy spot to recommend in San Diego.“

“Great pizza! Amazing servers!“

“What a great experience.. great beer and an awesome place.. for sure will be backs and will bring friends with me.. cheers 🍻“

“This place was awesome! We drove from Kansas City to check this place out and we were not disappointed. Absolutely fantastic beer and staff!“

“The top sections on the menu are 100% plant based, and the second half has meat options. It sounds like they used to be fully vegan, so it’s disappointing they added meat to the menu. I enjoyed the Munchwrap and the smash burger was pretty good. Next time I hope to try the flatbread—they currently have one plant based flatbread on the menu.“

“Chill spot. Very awesome and respectful bartender. I had a fly in my beer and she was able to replace it which I was beyond grateful about. I think this location is suited towards certain individuals but they do definitely have quality product. Any golf bros in the area, this is your spot.“

“Best beer and food in Escondido! A great place to meet with friends!“

“So fun! I loved this medieval-themed bar - John was my favorite bar maiden! There were lots of games to choose from, and they had a yummy selection of meads and ciders. I definitely recommend checking out AZ Trivia on Thursdays too! 🍻🏰“

“The beer! The best around by far“

“Outstanding bar and grill!!“

“Good beer , great pizza, good vibe been coming here for years“

“WE LOVE THIS PLACE!!! We visited Artifex either the first or second week it opened, and we've been back nearly every weekend. Just a great atmosphere. Everyone is super cool, from the staff right down to the patrons. My last birthday was celebrated at Artifex and they were super accommodating. There are three eateries within walking distance. One is a pizza place literally next door. The pizza is great, and they will deliver while you chat it up and enjoy a pint. I really can't say enough good things about this brewery - but I'll try if anyone asks. Artifex Oceanside is great!!“

“I love mead. I’ve tried nearly everything I can get my hands on, including shipping things from half a world away. I first tried Golden Coast Mead today at the Poway farmers market and they are truly making something special. The booth was worked by a wonderful woman named Jessica who gave me a $5 tasting flight and let me in on a delicious little secret regarding sweet and sour. I purchased bottles of Wildflower Sweet, Wildflower Sour, and Triple Chili. Highly recommend. Stop by if you want to find out about the secret for yourself!“

“I am Mexican , I usually go to TJ for tacos , but here these tacos are the best in this side of the border , the adobada has their piece of pineapple 😱“

“Had a great time here, I recommend 👍🏻“

“I have been sporadically visiting this place since it opened. In fact, I would drive by every so often while it was under construction to see if it was open. I really enjoy their beer and staff. When they opened another spot in downtown Vista, I visited there often. When friends come into town, I make it a pint to take them there.“

“Great beer. The Loma Alta is a great Mexican Lager. They have great service very friendly. I highly recommend you check this place out. We need to support this local establishment.“

“Great place to chill w/ ur dog, friends and family.“

“Absolutely incredible location in Leucadia with a chill atmosphere and welcoming tap room.First-time caller, so I went with a flight, obvs., of both West Coast as well as Double IPA's.Good but not great (hence the four stars), but gawddamn, Leucadia FTW, as this spot definitely wins for Location, Location, Location.Paz.“

“Beautiful location right in the heart of Downtown Vista. They have amazing beers and the almost nightly dancing is so much fun. Comedy nights are always a blast too. I always meet the nicest people here. 10/10“

“Went for some beer and food with my husband. The beer was from Barrel and Stave and was great tasting. Had a burger from Baby’s and those were both good too! Definitely coming back“

Had an amazing experience at Backstreet Brewer thanks to Kevin! He was absolutely awesome — friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about his craft. He made some of the best drinks I’ve ever had, perfectly tailored to our preferences. The atmosphere was great, but Kevin really made it special with his top-notch service and positive energy. Highly recommend this place and definitely ask for Kevin if you want a fantastic bar experience. Will be coming back for sure!“
