“Such a cool spot! The dude bartender with long hair was super friendly and poured a delicious helles lager and i got a pretzel dog, which was a beautiful pairing. A guitarist was doing some slide guitar.
The light lager is what brought me here in the first place. The spot was nice and packed. Def coming back!“
“Such a rad spot, fun vibe, engaging staff, and an insane variety of yummy beer. Definitely a must.“
“This is a great place to hang out and have a beer (so many choices!) and they also have food vendors sometimes since they don’t serve food themselves. Just be aware that if the Under Mezzanine area is reserved for an event there’s no access to the arcade games. We had it reserved for an event a couple weeks ago and two kids, about 7 and 10, walked right in and start playing games who mostly ignored us and finally told us “We were told we could be here” after we asked them to leave several times. Thanks to beer, I ended up scolding them to get them to leave and they ran off to tell their parents, to whom I give 0 stars since they came and complained to us even though they’d told their children they could crash our party.“
“Just stopped in here while waiting for a pizza next door and really liked the beers on tap and the staff. Nice to go to bar where the bar staff are super friendly and talkative. Not sure how long this brewery has been around, but hope it does really well.“
“Grabbed a beer a few weeks ago as we waited out the rain and waited for dinner. So glad I stopped by! It was a solid location, nice TVs to watch any games, and free WiFi!
I would definitely come back if I'm in the area.“
“I consider myself a lifetime Cellarmaker fan. My wife and I had our first date back in the first couple months of OG location being open in SOMA and we've been big followers since. The Berkeley location carries on the legacy of a great atmosphere, incredible beers, sublime music with the welcome addition of delicious food and a family friendly vibe. If you're looking for the best breweries in the Bay you'd better put this on your list.

“Chill Friday with great staff and patrons. I love a Pilsner on a warmer day and they had five on tap!! I was hella excited because it’s rare for a brewery to have so many pilsners on tap. Really great options all around. Dana was very warm and welcoming.“
“Over in San Francisco from Perth Australia and popped in for a couple of beers, awesome spot and great beers, staff were super friendly and even grabbed some merch, get yourselves over and support these guys and have a cracking pint or four“
“We stopped in for a beer on our honeymoon and loved the upstairs area to play some fun games and sand shuffle board! The beers were delicious and they had great service. It was a warm day and the airflow wasn’t great upstairs or down so that’s the only negative but we’ll definitely be back for more beers!“
“Update (2024):
Still a great selection of beers and very relaxing atmosphere on a Tuesday evening. They've got some very interesting beers on rotation right now. Would definitely recommend trying out the peanut butter and jelly beer!
2019: Great selection of unique beers, very friendly staff, great place to hang out at after work“

“They have good beer and a good atmosphere.“
“I love this place and their beer! I first had one at Alvarado Street Brew in Monterey, CA. They’ve got great sours and fruit forward IPAs for me and beer that tastes like beer for my BF. I wish they had more seating but that’s not a reason to rate below 5 starts. Maybe they will open a bigger location in Alameda or Oakland ?? DOG FRIENDLY“
“wide open atmosphere, excellent food and great service. Found the beer to be of high quality. Build a flight and you will love it!“
“Fantastic beverages and food. Easy in and out. Great service!“
“Family friendly and comfortable space. Good selection of beers and food. My kids love the sandboxes and games and it is a safe and clean space for them to play. I come regularly! Prices are reasonable and I have never had to wait long in line.“

“~This is such an amazing little Detroit Red Top style pizza joint w/ unique locally sourced fresh ingredients. The staff are attentive, accommodating & pleasant to interact w/. They really make you feel welcome like you are eating a pie @ a friend's place. There isn't a bad item on the menu. I always look forward to coming back!¡!🤤😋~“
“In town for work and was looking for some good beer. What a great find on a day with gorgeous weather! On the roof at Salesforce park, was able to enjoy a flight (5 options) and personal pizza (delicious!) for $45, a steal in San Fran. No heaters so can only be enjoyed in good weather but highly recommend.“
“Super friendly crew and super yummy beers!“
“Faction Brewing is a wonderful, local brewery! On a perfect day, enjoy a beer or cider on their patio overlooking the San Francisco Bay and city skyline. Catch it on a gloomier day and you can still enjoy a crafted beverage in their large indoor spaces. We host our annual donation drive here in the spring and the staff is always so fantastic. Highly recommend Faction Brewing!“
“Hands down the best spot to have a beer and talk with friends, neighbors, or strangers. It's not a large space, but always manages to have enough room to be more than comfortable. The ambiance is warm and inviting with a clean, minimalist look. The beer is stellar, and they always keep variety on tap. Hoi has become an anchor for the neighborhood.“
“Great local spot with friendly staff, good beers (I'm an IPA guy and find all of their offerings very solid, but their non IPA beers are also quite good). Not too loud inside and good table space. Can get outside food from a number of locations easily. Generally a great place to unwind and hang out.“
“I kept wondering if Mrs Craig Vanessa was really an expert trader like they say, that she is not a scammer like the others, then I contacted her and I was shocked and amazed that with just $1,500 I invested, Mrs. Craig Vanessa helped me managed my account and after 7 Days of trading, I made my first withdrawal of $16,700. I'm here to testify the good work of her after she made a good profit for me in my investment. She's reachable via WhatsApp with the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“
“We held an event here and it was a blast. We rented out part of the space. Purchased all drinks there but brought in our own food (however we heard the food there is tasty was well). Working with Sarah on the planning was a breeze. We had 40ish adults ranging up in age through their 80s + and about 7 kids. Everyone enjoyed the space, it's fun and there are activities (darts, pool, hoping on the busses) and space to sit and have quality time to visit. Karlisle was kind, accommodating, welcoming and such a treat to meet- a fantastic bartender. The beers are great, with a wide selection so everyone had something they liked. Wine drinkers were happy with the selection as well.
I highly recommend having an event here or just stopping by for good beer and tasty food.“
“It’s a rich history of brew and culture“
“Geeks Who Drink trivia night every Tuesday is awesome!“
“Great beer, food and service“

“The gals serving you up are kind… but I really like Ashley… very welcoming…. Back patio is a nice ‘escape’ zone and they serve their beer there as well! Nice beer!!“
“The Pilsner is one of the best beers around, it's really good, I miss the bottles, on cans I feel the taste a little different, the others Northern Larger and IPA is ok but not like the pils, the brisket sandwich was ok, bread was not fresh and dry, brisket was good! The staff special in the bar wasn't that friendly, in general is ok, my 5 stars go to the Trumer Pils, really delicious!“
“We went to two locations this weekend visiting from Portland & both were great! I have to rave about the service at the Barrel Room! On our way to the airport we made one last pit stop & the bartenders were AWESOME. Beer was fresh & delish. Building is dope. Lotsa kids really isn’t our thing but it’s so spacious you have plenty of room to vibe. Accidentally knocked my beer off the table & was rewarded for my bad behavior with a fresh brew on the house because accidents happen! So good. ? Will be back.“
