Devil's Canyon Brewing Company

Best root beer Bay Area at least I think so. Enjoy their beer Fridays with food truck and live music. Their Whinsey Market nights are always on enjoyable, though need more variety or turn over vendors. Otherwise it becomes repetitive shopping
Tried their Grainbakers class, highly recommend for bread making.

We recently held a service for my brother at Devil’s Canyon Brewery (Private Event), and I cannot say enough about how incredible the staff and venue were. During such a difficult time, they went above and beyond to make sure the day was as smooth and stress-free as possible for our family. Lena was amazing to work with.

Every detail was handled with care and professionalism. The team was compassionate, organized, and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without us ever having to ask. The space itself was warm, welcoming, and perfectly suited for gathering everyone together to honor my brother.

I’m truly grateful for the kindness and support shown to us. Devil’s Canyon Brewery exceeded all expectations, and I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a thoughtful and accommodating venue.

Amazing place !

Great place to spend a Friday night. Great Beer, live music, food trucks and fun! Support Local.

This place is more than I thought! I always passed by it and thought it was a small space with a taproom but I was mistaken. This venue is huge, the beer was really good and they have food trucks out back (On Friday when I went). All of the staff were really kind as well. Looking forward to going back.

This review is specifically for Devils Canyon Brewery as a private event venue, not their public taproom. As a professional event planner who hosted a client event here this past June, I am compelled to share my experience. This was my client’s second event at DCB and will be the last. The entire process was a disaster from start to finish.

The planning phase was defined by chaos and constant turnover. Despite beginning nine months in advance, we cycled through three different event managers. Each time someone new came on board, we had to start over—re-explaining logistics, re-confirming agreements, and renegotiating items that had already been settled. These resets inevitably led to “compromises” or surprise charges because “the previous person shouldn’t have agreed to that.” We weren’t asking for anything extraordinary, just consistency and professionalism. Instead, we were treated as though expecting reliability was unreasonable. At one point, an event manager shared that Chris, the owner, had recently cancelled another client's event on the spot when faced with negative feedback to dissuade us from confronting Chris with our own issues. That level of hostility is completely unacceptable.

On the event day, the staff was disorganized and unprepared. Despite a meticulously detailed floor plan and multiple meetings, the space was not ready at the agreed-upon time. Instead of executing, the staff peppered us with last-minute questions that should have been resolved months earlier, eating into critical setup time.

Chris, the owner, was on-site. Rather than taking accountability, he openly disparaged his former employees in front of me, my team, and vendors. It was an unprofessional and uncomfortable display that set the tone for the day.

Yes, we salvaged the event, and yes, guests had fun. This was only because of my team’s skill and determination. No client should have to absorb that level of stress, and no planner should have to compensate for such incompetence. To make matters worse, the financial side was equally painful. Throughout planning, we were nickel-and-dimed for things that should have been standard inclusions. Then, after the event, it took six weeks to close out billing because of constant disputes over erroneous charges. Ultimately, we received only a token deduction, nowhere near worth the aggravation.

Devils Canyon Brewery may have a space with potential, but it is fatally undermined by mismanagement, turnover, disorganization, and a blatant disregard for the client experience.

Buyer beware: If you value reliability, professionalism, and transparency, look elsewhere. This venue will cost you far more in time, stress, and frustration than it could ever deliver in value.

Great venue, this brewery hosts fun and unique events.

Always a good time at Devil's Canyon, great music, delicious food options and something for everyone! Kid friendly and great vibes!

For the love of god buy some pitchers. You're constantly out of pitchers, it's freaking annoying.

Fantastic vibe, beers and staff!!
Tons of parking, events and things to do.
Family and pet friendly too!

Great place !

I second Jeeyna's review. Very selfish about the parking lot. Sure they might have paid for the lot, but at least find a way to share, even if it costs something to park there.

Great spot for a casual evening out with kids. Super family friendly, lots of space inside and out, and good variety of food trucks.

Solid beer, lots of space, friendly staff, fun events!

Fun place to meet friends on Fridays. Plenty of food options with food trucks and desserts plus great beer. Staff is always friendly. Great place for polite dogs, lots of seating.
