Best place for a cold beer in all of downtown.Topa Topa has it all. Great brews, great people and great atmosphere.Come for one or come for a few. It’s always a good time here. If you know, you know.

Fun little brewery spot tucked up to the freeway. The beer was outstanding and the customer service was awesome as well. They had a very large selection of beers on tap to try. Small outdoor patio to sit at, opened up a large area inside with pool tables and arcade machines. Had some snack foods available but nothing really substantial to eat. If you want to eat they will let you get a pizza next door and bring it in to have with your beer. I’d say of the four breweries we tried this weekend these guys had the best beer by far.

Great medium sized brewery bar! Food trucks or mobile catering most weekends. Chief Peak and Nitro Pub were tasty.
Steven Mendoza
Great beers, and even better tap room associates. Friendly team around

I was here only briefly, but the employee that helped us was very nice, and he made a great suggestion for drinks. It's a nice spot to relax and sit outside with peers while enjoying a beer. I would like to come back again. He also mentioned that they have certain activities on certain nights, so I think that's worth considering if you are looking for a simple get-together with friends or coworkers. It's a nice little spot to visit if you are looking for things to do within that community.

Great selection of craft beers (IPAs, ales, lagers, stout) and seltzers, outdoor (and indoor) seating, friendly staff and dog bowls, too!Dropped in to meet friends (former ‘desert dwellers’) and sampled a few of the featured beers including ‘Level Line’ pale ale and ‘Kerna Lager.’ Both were great!Indoor space is somewhat tight, but there are tables and bar seating. Two patio areas - front of building and side of the building (which is more expansive). Patio is shaded from the afternoon sun, and of course there are cool ocean-influenced breezes.Bathroom is in the interior of the business; up-to-date and clean.Parking is convenient- right in front of the business.

A local mainstay! Parking may be tight but so is everywhere around that radius of Ventura DTEveryone is super nice-- especially for a beer noob like me. I won't even try to go in depth with the notes and kinds because that it not in my wheelhouse lol. The whole space felt very community and welcoming and could tell that they have a lot of regulars. Right next to surf shop which makes the visit 2-in-1.Love that they offer food popups so I don't have to grubhub food to the place. They also have community events that feature our very own makers and they partner with nonprofits to make our seas better!

Had plans to go to Tony's Pizza and take it to Topa Topa. Upon our arrival at Topa Topa we observed a Black Lives Matter sign in the front window. So if this anti American group offends you as it does us, don't bother to waste your time going there. Also called them and told them that we were offended by the sign and basically they didn't care.

We went on a Saturday night and there was live music. It was a great atmosphere with not as many people as I thought. Friendly clean place with yummy bear! I felt like the prices were more on the expensive side compared to other local breweries.
Why are there no mirrors in the bathrooms at this Topa Topa? That's crazy. Good beer though.0/5 - no mirrors5/5 - good beer(so it works out to a final score of 5 stars)

Excellent IPAs after a long-day’s journey from Tennessee. Really nice ambiance.

Delicious assortment of local beers. Great service all the bartenders are very pleasant and quick. Great place for a large gathering. If you're hungry there's a food truck in the parking lot and they let you bring the food inside to pair with your beers

This Topa Topa, the "OG", is just phenomenal. It's always felt kinda like you're hanging out at a friend's house, but since the expansion it's even better. There's billiards, video games, a lot of outdoor space, and even a stage for music & other acts to come enjoy. Parking is scarce in the lot, but you can park nearby and walk a little ways to get there. It's worth it!

Topa Topa is the people’s brewery. Hard pressed to find better beer and a better brand.
