23 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.“

“This place is amazing. Very dog friendly. The burgers at the adjacent food stand are very tasty. I think the best aspects are obviously the beer and also the service. I came here with my two dogs for four days over comic con and every single bartender and person working here was so kind and welcoming towards me and my dogs.“

“Boochcraft has been my favorite beverage since 2021 starting with orange pomegranate. That flavor stayed my fav but there is not a Booch that I don’t like. It is the BEST hard kombucha. The ingredients are clean, the flavor is spot on, the ABV is 7%, and the carbonation is sharp. None of the other hard kombuchas on the market come close. Unfortunately it’s no longer sold in Dallas, TX. And my heart has been broken! There is no comparison. Please come back!“

“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“

“Came here to meet a group of friends to watch the Iran vs Egypt soccer game and Padres vs Dodgers game. The upstairs was closed, but the downstairs was packed with people both inside and outside.

The bartender was great. The beer selection was solid, and I really enjoyed their hazy IPAs.

We also tried their bbq pizza, and it was a standout. The crust was super crispy, and the flavor overall was really good.

Overall, this is a lively spot that’s perfect for watching a game. Tons of TVs throughout, great beer, and excellent pizza. It’s got a fun, social vibe and is an easy place to hang out with friends for a game or a casual night out.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great spot on the water for craft beer and food. Go with your favorite or try a variety in a flight. Great mix of malty, roasty, and hoppy beers, or if you're into the lighter varieties they have those too. Keep in mind there are two sets of taps, one downstairs and one upstairs, and both have patio seating. Beers are all pretty solid!“

“🙂👍 Jose is the man!“

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

“🙂👍 Shaun & Alex are great!“

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

“Best food of my trip! This made my birthday. We had carne asada fries as an appetizer, margaritas, and pork chops. The potatoes were excellent. And they brought me out a very nice wine pairing to my desert for my birthday. The server was good . I would recommend.“

“Brewjeria is one of the best breweries on 3rd avenue! The food is outstanding, definitely better than your average bar food.

The drinks are good, the service is good too, I really enjoyed chatting with the bartender.

The bathrooms are spacious and clean.

I recommend trying the michelada cubana!“

“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! 👍🏼“

“I liked Harland so that’s why I’m giving a 4 star. This place deserves a 3 star based off the service, location/parking, and the ability to get proper seating. This location definitely does a disservice to the Brand… but I know they can profit off these trendy hipsters lol. Anyways, I’d avoid coming here unless you want a tough time finding parking and finding a seat. Bear of the month is always clutch.“

“Causal bar/restaurant located within the Sheraton Harbor Island Resort. They were showing the USA soccer World Cup.

The drinks were good and the service at or above my expectation of the Sheraton brand. Food was on-par for bar food as we had a decent pizza for supper, but a less-than Cuban, Cuban Sandwich for our arrival lunch. The sandwich had plenty of decent tasting ham and roast pork, but was devoid of pickle and mustard flavor. The sandwich did come with very good ‘special fries’ (Parmesan) fries and a very good Cuban Mojo sauce to dunk the sandwich in. I opened the sandwich and saw one pickle slice and just an off color of yellow.

Oh, the drinks were good. This Sheraton Resort is pretty spot on for bars and restaurants.
