5 Best Brewpubs near San Rafael

“Great beer and great food and service.“

“Freewheelin is a great place to grab a beer, chill out, and relax. The beers are tasty and flavorful. I had the Kelpie Gold Lager and it was one of the best lagers I've had in the Bay Area. I also tried some sips from my partner's IPA and it was excellent. They're open for the World Cup games so please check them out while you still have time!

They don't have good, but there's a Pupuseria next door and they sell snacks, hummus, and Pita chips. Not bad considering the liquid calories you're sure to enjoy.“

“My favorite! Outdoor seating.“

“Came for a burger at the recommendation of the Marin Burger Club. The burger is somewhat forgettable, not having much in the way of flavor. Writing this review less than two weeks after having it, little sticks out. Most notable is the bun, which had an oddly firm crust that I found off-putting. The fries were enjoyable, service good, and restaurant itself well laid out. But as for the burger...it's a slightly nicer version of Gott's burger. Good, not great.“

“The taproom here is awesome! I like to stop by after a mountain bike ride for some delicious cold beer. They open early Friday through Sunday which is perfect for me. Im usually greeted by Michael who is very nice, and knowledgeable about the company and all the different beers. Nice people here, great location, lots of fun. I highly recommend checking out this taproom. Thank you Hen house for coming to Novato. Rich“
