22 Best Craft Breweries near Imperial Beach

“Nice place, all staff nice guys , Every time we go we have a great time“

“I DO recommend Pizza Port, however their pizza is not consistent. You can definitely tell if they are busy or not, the quality goes down. A few weeks ago the pizza was delicious, beautiful even (I wish I would have taken a picture) lol. Today, not so much , picture included. I will continue to eat here just hoping the pizza becomes more consistent“

“The best portobello tacos and the kombucha 😋“

“Good beer, good food, service was top notch.“

“Must visit. I don't care for most breweries but East Village Brewing changed that. Definitely try the Sandlot.“

“I didn't have a single drink I did not appreciate here. If you visit the Back Abbey and places with good european beers this is the spot. I picked this place off of pure vibes on google and it was exactly what I wanted. Good beer, good vibes, good bartenders like Armando. It's the place I know I will always come back to when in San Diego.“

“I love this spot! I went for the first time a few days ago and was quite impressed. The drinks are delish and the bartenders are super cool. My favorite part is the huge outdoor patio. I will definitely be returning 🥰“

“Amazing friendly place , staff so friendly“

“Excellent service! The bartender at the rooftop bar was extremely friendly and kind and went above and beyond to make sure our group was attended to. The fire pit areas are so beautiful if you’re looking for a chill/lounge vibe with beautiful views in East Village.
We held an event there last year for the holidays, and the service and food were spot on. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a venue to host a large party or a small group of friends. Everyone can order what they want at the bar and they bring the food to you.“

“Boochcraft is my go to! It checks all my boxes in terms of an unbelievably healthy hard cocktail. Organic, Vegan and Gluten Free with Kombucha, fruit and no added sugars???? It does not get better than this! I keep this stocked in my house and I tell all the liquor store owners in the area to please keep this stocked as I will be by each week to pick up a 6 pack or 8 pack!!!“

“Came in Saturday night with my girlfriend. We watched a bit of drama unfold with another female patron, and somehow got pulled into it. The staff stayed friendly and professional the whole time. It ended up being such a wild, weird experience we’ll never forget. but the beer was on point and the two guys there were super chill. We’ll definitely come back here on our travels.“

“🙂👍 Jose is the man!“

“Knotty Brewing Co. had a relaxed, friendly vibe that I really enjoyed. The craft beers were fresh and full of character, and the staff seemed passionate about what they pour. It’s a casual spot where you can sit back, try a few different brews, and just enjoy the laid-back atmosphere.“

“We had our wedding reception upstairs at Mission Brewery and it was the best decision ever. The manager Eric went above and beyond for us and made something so easy. Our bartender, I believe his name was George was so so great and also made our night to remember. Parking is nearby, close to many hotels, lots of space, and great beers. Highly recommend booking all of your events at Mission Brewery.“

“Great beer and good food! They also promote several social mixers. Definitely going back“

“🙂👍 Shaun & Alex are great!“

“Great beer selection, friendly staff, and a really unique atmosphere. One of the coolest features of Brewjeria is the underground venue downstairs, which hosts live music and comedy events. The only suggestion I would make is to promote the basement stage more clearly inside the venue. As a first-time visitor, it would be easy to miss that there is a separate underground space with its own bar and events. A little more signage could help more people discover it. Overall, a great spot on Third Avenue and definitely worth checking out“

“Great customer service I had the mobile app glitch called in and the manager Claudia helped me will definitely order again“

“We used to live around the corner but moved away many years ago. It was great to revisit KSBC and enjoy it just as much as we did last time.

Excellent service (and beer advice) from Taylor and it was also wonderful to chat with Bonnie.

If you get a chance to meet her, be sure to ask about the history of the place, and also “the photo” :-)

Food was terrific, and it was good to see they still cater well for vegetarians.

We often travel through San Diego on our travels, and try to stop here when we can. We haven’t been disappointed yet.

Thanks Taylor & Bonnie for the friendly welcome, great food & beer, plus the added bonus of some interesting conversation.

We look forward to our next visit.“

“Our son and daughter in law were visiting from Panama and chose this place . We each ordered something different and all the dishes served were great! Will definitely eat there again! 👍🏼“

“Great place to do a little work done and there is great food too. There is usually a lot of places to sit. They sell beer for any occasion like if you just want to sit and have a drink work a little or to like something to bring to a party or to have at home. They sell mostly six packs of beer.“

“A really cool spot to be able to have a beer and a sandwich. I enjoyed a Cuban sandwich with a side salad and it was delicious. Having my lunch while overlooking the harbor was also a very nice treat. The waitress was very nice and took care of us quickly.“
