    “Planned a “Girls Trip” to San Francisco and arriving late in the evening. I knew we’d be hungry and wasn’t sure what would be open and didn’t want fast food. So I pre ordered their “To Go Box” Raquel was absolutely helpful and professional when corresponding to my inquiries. Had it delivered directly to the hotel and it was waiting at the front desk (refrigerated in the back) when we arrived. The hotel staff said this was the best and most beautiful charcuterie box she has ever seen! Oh how we enjoyed it once we were up in our room! Highly recommend and would definitely order from them again when in town!”

    “An Amazing Experience at Headlands Brewery! We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Headlands Brewery hosting a fundraising event for **Combo on the Creek**, a talented student jazz combo from Northgate High School, to help raise money for their upcoming April trip to Disneyland. The venue was perfect for the event, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience from start to finish. Will Smith, the event manager, was incredibly responsive, helpful, and accommodating throughout the entire process. All of the staff were fantastic and made sure everything went smoothly. The team was so easy to work with, and we truly appreciated their support of these talented young musicians and our fundraising efforts. The kids had an amazing time performing, and parents, friends, and community members thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The food and drinks were excellent, and the atmosphere made it the perfect place to enjoy great music while supporting a wonderful cause. We are so grateful to Headlands Brewery for helping make this event such a success. Thank you to Will and the entire team for your generosity, hospitality, and for creating such a positive experience for our students and families. Headlands Brewery are true supporters of the community! We’ll definitely be back and would love to do it again. Highly recommend Headlands Brewery for great food, drinks, live music, and an outstanding team!”

Classy, knowledgeable, and professional, with a great attitude. You can tell he cares about what he does and wants you to enjoy the experience. He made it worth every penny. Highly recommend sitting at the bar and letting Carlos guide you through the menu.”

    “Came in after having dinner at rooftop in Walnut Creek. Been here before but made a good choice to come back for a nightcap. I can’t even tell you what I ordered as it was late, dark, loud and the dranks were dranking lol. Our bartender was Shirley (if I remember correctly. Forgive me if I’m wrong) but she was super sweet and informative about the drinks. I’ve been here twice before for the food and most likely return to give it another try with a more thorough review.”

    “Came here for brunch because the reviews are outstanding for the Margaritas. I'm not even going to front... the Margs hit. We both had the frozen strawberry house Margaritas and we loved every bit of it. We bought 2 lol. The guacamole was delicious as well. Not too acidic. I ordered the quest birria entree and my friend ordered the tacos. We throughly enjoyed our food. Very well seasoned and served hot. I love that they give coleslaw and avocado on the side. Everything was tasty. The waitress was great with her reccomendationa. She never gave me her name, but thank you. Lastly, I am unable to give them a 5 star because we waited about an hr for our food to come. Yes, it gave us plenty of time to talk... but that was ridiculous. What made it worse is that our original waitress did not tell us anything. She came to see if we needed another drink, but she didn't bother to tell us our food was coming late and the reason. I didn't appreciate that at all. It wasn't until Nikita came in for her shift that she informed us that our food was late because the machine that printed ordershad an issue. This was at 1:29 pm.. we ordered around 12:40 pm or so. I explained to her that I was going to submit a review because I'm both a Google reviewer and a Yelp Elite and this was horrible to hear due to the lack of communication from both the manager and our waitress. Sadly.. the deserved 5 starts up until that point. Andrew (Manager) finally brought our food out with an apology at some point. I will most likely go back because the food and drinks are worth it.”

    “I come here a lot even though it's an hour's drive each way. It's my favorite place for watching live music in the whole bay area. Great 90s and 80s cover bands, decent sound system (some sound guys could do better preventing the upper bass drone), great 80s decor and vibes, good drinks, very fair prices, and the bands don't start or end too late. The DJ music after the band is good stuff. And the crowd is always energetic, appreciative, and a lot of fun. For example, the band that played Joy Division and New Order, played deep cuts that real fans love, and the crowd was ecstatic!”
