5 Best Brewpubs near Santa Cruz

“🇧🇷 Food and CraftBeer need I say Moore ! PSST! Live Music 🎼“

“This place is great! The best IPAs I’ve had in like a 25 miles radius! (Ok there is one other brewery within the radius also with great beers if you want to get technical, but anyways…) If you do a tiny tiny amount of sleuthing, you can find the “secret” corner that takes you the more inviting outdoor seating area!!“

“Fun place …..also has a taco truck for food.“

“Over in San Francisco from Perth Australia and popped in for a couple of beers, awesome spot and great beers, staff were super friendly and even grabbed some merch, get yourselves over and support these guys and have a cracking pint or four“

“I just love when I go into a restaurant and find that there are several vegan options to choose from. That is the case at this place and it's a fun problem to figure out which entree most appeals. I ended up getting the Beyond Steak tacos and my friend went with the Soyrizo tacos. Both were good with three generous tacos and some chips and pico de gallo. Our server was friendly and attentive. As another reviewer commented, you can see the large "Laughing Monk" sign if you're coming up Scotts Valley Dr. from Highway 17 but from the front of the restaurant parking lot it's not visible. The entrance is along the right side of the building near The Penny Ice Creamery (which has vegan sorbet if you need dessert). I'll be back!“
