“Love my local brewery! They have the best bartenders! Sometimes they host special events and even have a special VIP program that gives you access to exclusive brews. If I wasn't gluten-free, I would have signed up a long time ago! Lol Also, they have plenty of parking available so that's always a plus!Although they don't serve food, they do have a food truck parked in front of the brewery and they allow you to bring your food into the bar. Sometimes they have different food trucks so check their instagram for the most current lineup. Overall, it's a great place to try local beers with friends in the Richmond Area.“
“I haven't been here for many years. It's always been a Belgian beer bar. I'm not sure when Sante Adairius took it over but they've pretty much kept it the same as it was, in a good way. As I tend to drink IPA's, I was happy that they also had some on the menu. I tried the Left and Leaning, a non hazy that I really enjoyed. My friend had a very properly poured St. Bernardus (see photo). The service was great. Also on hand is a lovely, friendly Irish Setter. It was very fun when he visited our table. There's a nice $5 parking lot next door with an attendant. This alone would bring me back :)“
“Original Pattern Brewing Company serves up some of the finest craft beer I've ever had. I first tried their IPAs at Paulista's Brazilian taproom(highly recommend), where they have a rotating selection on draft that can compete with brews from anywhere. The tropical, citrusy hop flavors of their West Coast-style IPAs are perfectly balanced and go down smooth. Beyond the beer, they have a pizza pop-up out front that's worth checking out. With quality brews and good food, Original Pattern is a can't-miss stop for any craft beer lover. I highly recommend checking them out - you won't be disappointed!“
“My favorite brewery in Oakland and it’s not even close. Large and diverse selection of beers such as IPA’s, malty ( schwarzbier, dopplebock, brown ale, etc), and light beers. the inside can be kind of tight but they have plenty of outdoor seating and the upstairs which has more seating and an entertainment area for kids. The customer service and the owners are always good people and there is food trucks always outside when I’m there which are quality as well.The only thing I can recommend is to watch your cars in the area. It’s still Oakland but I have yet to see a break in of my car or others but I would take valuables out. Other then that come visit this brewery, enjoy the amazing beers and good people.“

“Found out about this brewery while at the SF Beer Week Gala event last Friday, so my wife and I did just that today.Outstanding brewery from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. The beer selection is vast and delicious (actually had an IPA that I enjoyed, more of a Pilsner guy). The Detroit style pizza was amazing, my wife and I split the half Pepperoni Pizza (which comes in a full too, but for a snack the two slices were perfect size).Merchandise wise is great, good selection of shirts, a hoodie and a tacker.The atmosphere is laid back, music was at a nice volume and overall was just a nice place to go have a beer and chat with your significant other or friends.Shoutout to Andrea who was so nice to both my wife and I who had never been to the brewery before.Amazing brewery if you're in Berkeley, highly recommend.“
“WELCOME TO WEST OAKLAND BRIX! This new brewery on the west side opened up less than a month ago and has all the essentials for a spring/summer fun day in the sun. - Plenty of Outdoor seated on a patio - Really spacious indoor seating - Plenty of hours in direct and indirect sunlight - Great variety of beers on tap I tried the Siklon Stout which was very good. Served at a great temp and not too foamy. The servers are experienced, some coming over from the very popular Almanac brewing company so they are used to handling big groups and educating on what they have on tap. Prices were very reasonable. Come show the new business some love, I for sure will be venturing back this summer many times.“
“Love this brewery bar! Everyone is so welcoming. My personal favorite was the lemon grass beer. So flavorful! I got some to go as well.There was a Korean food vendor from SF outside the venue so we got some snacks to go with the bar. Will be back !“
“I just discovered this great brewery. They have a nice array of IPA's and don't miss the Coffee and Cigarette's Stout. Yum. I only tried the meatballs, but they were very tasty with just the right amount of spice. The SF Chronicle food critics highly rate their pizza. They have a special pizza of the day plus a couple of standards. Big open space inside and out for big gatherings and also comfortable for me and my husband. We would have preferred different music, but other people seemed to like it. Don't miss this neighborhood gem.“
“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.“
“Man, I really like very curated "touristy" experiences like this. It was cool to find one so close to home.The tasting is fun, and very educational - we watched a video at the beginning, and the woman who ran the tasting taught us a lot about what made each pour taste different. A lot more information than a typical wine tasting, and very tasty. Great date idea, but would also be fun with a group of friends or even alone.“
“The atmosphere at 2 Pitchers is always great, there are plenty of seating options. 2 Pitchers specializes in brewing RADLERS which are like fruitier beers that are lighter on the ABV than other popular craft beers. They have a good selection of their own brewed beers ($6 per pint) and then they also have a great variety of local beers from other craft brewers in the area which go for $8-10 per pint. They also have some wines but no liquor license. You can get a burger or fries from Lovely's (which always has a line!) and eat it here. There are indoor and outdoor seating options, and it is very dog and kid friendly.“
“It’s a brewery and eatery with a nice selection of beers (brewed onsite). The staff was friendly and efficient…perhaps a bit detached. Their online ordering system makes building custom flights very easy. Indoor and outdoor seating. It was a warm day, and it was quite warm inside. A few industrial fans would have been nice. We had lunch there. They had a variety of food options (and were able to satisfy the vegetarians in the group). Overall, the food was ok…the beer was better.“
“Love this place! Stopped by for the first time last weekend and was pleasantly surprised by the awesome selection of beers on tap. Had an amazing rice lager that was out of this world, and some other really great pilsners. The music was also perfect Friday night vibes. Service was awesome and we will be back! Fun little neighborhood spot. Used to be another brewery that closed down, so happy Tenma came in and revived!“
“Excellent clean , friendly, and laid back establishment . Professional , knowledgeable , with first class customer service !No feeling of awkwardness , almost like a local bar . But without the heavy air and darkness . They’re Fortunes told is first class of ipas . Fresh , clean , refreshing dipa , with minimal aftertaste on pallet . A heavy 10% abv , with light tones of mosaic hops . Definitely a crowd pleaser . Settled on an empty stomach like a bud light , hit like a Lagunitas Waldo’s triple ale ! Economical , neighbor and out of town friendly establishment . Highly recommend . Thank you for making my 2 hour wait for Apple phone repair on a Saturday painless and enjoyable lol! Dillion is a knowledgeable ,intelligent , easy going , good listner , and honest tender of the establishment , A must have of representing the companies quality products . Genuine , non artificial , good old east bay man . Kudos to him ! AAAAA++++++!“
“We went to the taproom recently and had a great time! We knew the beer would be good but were happy to find that the food and atmosphere were as well. The music (not-live) was so good that I asked what they were streaming thinking that I could check it out later. Turns out it was a playlist created by one of the employees! We will be coming back! Bonus points for plenty of street parking available.“
“The Circe is one of the best pizzas I've had anywhere in the world.The only complaint I have about Jupiter is that it can get rather crowded sometimes and I prefer less noisy locations, but it's worth it for the quality of the food here.“
“Came to Temescal and met up with a couple of folks on my work project. We ordered some drinks and a platter of snacks. I loved the conserva and the vermouth spritz was fantastic! Would totally come here again if I'm in the neighborhood.“
“Came to watch Oakland Roots play. Good crowd. Beer is great! Had a porter and a chili dog, hit the spot. The venue is in a pretty chill spot towards the end of Jack London square. Its also kid friendly. There is a foosball and a pool table. Id come back again for sure!“
“Somehow this spot feels like a backcountry ranger station or mountain top ski hut. What I’m saying is it’s cozy, simple, understated and completely unique for the area brewery/bar scene. These guys make great beer and wine locally, and empanadas are on point. Look for the ski lift chair out front and escape.“
“Beer is always best fresh, and I thoroughly enjoyed my weekday lunch visit.It's basically just a kiosk take out window in front of the Ferry Building. Lots of seating, both in the shade and in the sun. They have maybe 8 taps plus a decent selection of cans. I wasn't sure what I wanted, so the bartender was nice enough to walk me through a few different beers with samples and descriptions. I settled on the ANIMAL IPA with my empanada.“
“One of the best breweries in the bay. I was holding off on giving a review as I stopped going here for a while because of the lack of customer service. I came back a year later and I’m glad to say it’s improved.Beers are anything from IPA’s to traditional German and at times English. For reference I hate IPA’s so I am reviewing the great non IPA beers. They usually will serve some beer that can only be sold on draft exclusively at the brewery where most of the beers can be purchased at liquor stores in cans. But as every beer drinker knows it’s better in draft.The inside is great and spacey with lots of large tables. Plenty of games and kid friendly both in and outside. The outside is especially great as there is a long narrow area with a fire pit, tables, and no cars can drive down it besides the food truck. I usually have my kid playing with a ball or scooter down this area and feel completely safe about it.Overall amazing beer, great ambiance, and very family friendly. Btw I am very picky in beer so this a god review for me and I have been to most of the breweries in the bay.“
