12 Best Brewpubs near San Marcos

Blue Fire Brewing Brewery •
2892 S Santa Fe Ave STE 107, San Marcos

“I work somewhat local, and I always wanted to try this place. They seem like a “tucked away” brewery. I think too many people neglected this underdog of a brewery. They have a clean establishment and it’s pretty simple too!

The bartender Ryan was incredibly knowledge and personable. He did a great job informing me on your product and making me feel valued as a customer.

The interior was a bit bear and underwhelming, but it was simple and clean. It was really empty on a Saturday afternoonish time, and there was only one patron. I felt bad for the food vendor, but it didn’t seem that inviting either. Atleast the UPS guy gave him business.

Location is a bit random imo (probably the biggest killer of foot traffic for them) but I think they have a great facility and parking lot.

I think I might have heard of this organization thru a guest tap somewhere… or else I wouldn’t have cared to come out of my way and check y’all out.

I had the fest bier. It was a good beer. I think they have good variety but I wasn’t able to try a couple and get a good feeling of the overall beers. Great spot but a lil tough for me to come back since it’s not as convenient.

Gl and cheers“

“Friday, July 24th. The happy hour drinks weren't that good. They were watered down and the drinks weren't made right. The bartender possibly doesn't have enough experience. Their house wine wasn't tasty as well. But, the food wasn't too bad. I probably would choose a different spot around main street in Vista like Mikko sushi, best pizza or belching beaver on my next hangout.“

“Delicious food and drink! I’m from out of town but visit San Diego regularly. I always look forward to eating at Karl Strauss Brewing Co. One of my favorite meals is the black bean burger. It’s so delicious - tastes as good as a regular burger to me. So much flavor. The service is great and employees are friendly. I’m usually by myself so I eat at the bar and they sometimes offer samples of beers that compliment my meal. Looking forward to my next visit! 😋“

Bear Roots Brewing Downtown Brewery • $
135 E Broadway, Vista - 5.92 miles

“I have been sporadically visiting this place since it opened. In fact, I would drive by every so often while it was under construction to see if it was open. I really enjoy their beer and staff. When they opened another spot in downtown Vista, I visited there often. When friends come into town, I make it a pint to take them there.“
