A few things I have to say about this place, I've given this place quite a few tries, if you're into sweet beers or drinks like I am this is definitely your spot, I've came for Christmas last year, and it was gorgeous the way the set it up, but my issue is that anytime I come here there's always small children in the way or taking up space in the photo ops so we never get cute pictures, for their Barbie set up there was small children in the ball pit the entire time till closing which was super annoying. Especially because there was other people who wanted pictures also and the children seemed to be related to the owners so you would think they would have them not taking up so much space so others can get a turn too. When I came during Christmas the woman who owns the shop never looks happy to be here or serve us which is fine we all have bad days. But every single time I go? Very weird . She preaches woman empowerment and seems so happy online but just know this is all just for online presence. She's not like that in person. And this is from many of the times I have gone, she doesn't smile and makes it seem like it's a bother to talk our order each time? If you don't like customer service (as I don't either that's why I don't work in it) I'm not sure why she decided to be the face of the company. But, she might just be having a bad time every time we coincidentally be coming in. Last thing, their hours are SOOOOO UNPREDICTABLE. For Christmas they closed one hour early which they did not state anywhere even on their instagram, and this is not the first time this has happened when they open later than their posted hours or close early than their posted hours, at least let us know when we walk in or post it on instagram. I drive about an hour away to come visit my mom in Salina's and I like taking her to downtown Salina's for drinks & food sometimes and the times I have come this has ALWAYS been an issue. Cute place no doubt, but service is not great, and youll never really know their true hours of business.

The concept is great but it's too busy and not comfortable. The beers are pricey some are good. I like the interesting flavors and the names. Owner is very friendly if she knows you, otherwise, not welcoming.

I came here for the brunch with Jack Skellington. It was such a great time! From the attention to detail to the love and care in the customer service. I did not have a beer but the people that were there and did, had great things to say about them. I loved the environment, the people that work here make it so it is a comfortable, welcoming and warm place. Thank you very much to the Brew-N-Krew Ale House family!

Brew n Krew brews the best craft beer. Their stouts are my favorite. Owner, Marlene Garcia, has created a magical craft brew house.

We absolutely love Brew-N-Krew! The owners are absolutely fantastic, the space is so beautiful and welcoming and their theme pop-ups are absolutely out of this world!

Such a fun place. The owners do such a great job at making the atmosphere above and beyond love it.

The displays in this place are amazing. And the fact that the owners encourage the community to simply come enjoy the photo ops and not feel pressure to spend money (even though their beers are well worth it and creative and palate pleasers). They are quickly becoming a main stay on the block with their amazing pop up displays and delicious beers and willingness to contribute to the community!Kid-friendliness: The displays are open for parents to bring their kids to take quick pictures. It isn't kid friendly for staying ans having beers due to ABC.

Came in as a friend had recommended the place so we decided for a night out with family. Their door guy was quick to ask for ID's and tell us a bit about the bar. Once in we approached the bar only to be ignored by both the short guy behind the bar and the lady tender. We were ready to leave but my brother in law insisted we try it as people seemed to be enjoying something other than the killer Barbie decor. Honestly out of the four drinks ordered only one of them was good and it was a beer cocktail. I don't know that I'd recommend it based on the one drink or the cool decorations. If you're into trendy Instagram photo opps this is your place otherwise skip it and head over to Alvarado Brewing!

Can I give HUGE props on the vibe here!! Perfect summer BARBIE THEME ( I heard they change themes ). The music is also great! They have alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages and the hosts always have great recommendations. The tables are always being wiped down and cleaned. Definitely stop by and grab a drink with fun people and enjoy fun times!

I love brew n krew! We are always greeted with a smile and a hello. The beer is refreshing and delicous. They play cool disco tunes and the vibes are great here. I wanted to state that a lot of the negative reviews on here seemed to be left by a certain demographic. DO NOT LET THOSE REVIEWS deter you from checking this spot out for yourself. If you are Black or POC this is a great place to chill and be comfortable at. As a mexican-american woman, there are not to many places in downtown salinas that feel like a safe space if I wanted to get a drink on my own. I feel safe and at ease at brew n krew. cheers!

WAY overpriced. $30 for two beers. ridiculous. maybe i wouldn't complain if the beer was good and if they had an efficient ordering system setup, but you have to line up at the front counter to order. oh yeah, did i mention, the beer wasn't good. if you want a cute photo for your social media though, this is the spot for you. i was excited to try this place out, major let down.
