Always good. I think it's the best food of any of the breweries. Pizza is a highlight. Only reason didn't give it 5 stars for food is because of the ahi nachos. There's something off about them. Go for the pork.
We were expecting mediocre bar food but were very pleasantly surprised that everything was well prepared & tasty. We sat in the tap room because it has air con. Looks like most people go outside to the beer garden. Very pleased with my grilled chicken breast sandwich. It had a lovely potato bun, chicken was moist & it was topped with a thick slice of crispy bacon, generous green leaf lettuce & tomato slice the size of the bun. I've never had as crispy and perfect piece of bacon served with a sandwich, most time the bacon is a thin, limp strip. Paid $3 extra for furikake fries to go with my chicken sandwich but the wasabi mayo made the fries soggy. Pretzel served with a container of mustard sauce & a container of beer cheese. Perfect saltiness & beer cheese so ono. Six pieces of fried chicken wings were good but overpriced at about $3 per. Fried pork belly with garlic soy sauce dip was a bit too chewy but something different to try. The guys enjoyed their beer flights which were well explained by our server. After the flights they liked the Red Zeppelin & Hiker & had a pint of each. They do have wine altho it is not listed on the menu. Chardonnay was $12 a glass. I liked that there was a nice selection of creative nonalcoholic drinks and had two glasses of the refreshing cucumber drink. Wish they had tomato juice for nonalcoholic bloody Mary. The upstairs parking is strange, there is a valet, but you park your own car. Then, you get charged $5 per car for parking with the food bill and you have to tip the valet who didn't park or bring up your car. There's also a sign that says do not walk on the ramp however, that is is only way to get down.
No complaints, would return with a better effort to make it for Happy Hour. Card only for merchandise, not a fan of that.
Last couple times it's been so noisy that it's unbearable.... Even the food has gone a little blah.
Funky dive atmosphere but great pizza and good burgers. It took a while for us to get waited on but service was ok once we got started. Not great, but ok. Would go back for sure. Jesse
The staff here are amazingly friendly! Love it here!! It's so nice being able to sit outside and drink delicious local beer ☺️. Can't wait to come back!
This time we went specifically because Chubbies Burgers was there. I usually have a local beer when we go here but this time I had a Lemon Drop and it was exceptional! Both of us thought everything was perfect! We love Aloha Beer and we love Chubbies.
My friends and I came for the “Double Smash Pop-Up.” Despite the long wait with our take-out order at the end...our food, drinks were good and the staff were friendly.
Our experience was super good. It was our 10m old golden retrievers first experience, and while it was pretty loud, he settled nicely.
Food price and taste was great as usual. Service was okay. We felt like the server was rushing us to get our orders in, and they weren't very friendly either. I'd understand if the venue was busy, but there were about 8 tables filled with 2-4 people per table since it was pouring.

Enjoyed it! Food and service was good. Great place to hang with friends and meet new ones!
I went on a Saturday night around 10-ish. No reservation, had plenty of seating available.
No food that i can recall, our group only drank whiskey cocktails. Overall experience was different from before covid. It used to feel like a speakeasy, now it feels more like a bar kind of vibe.
Cons: You go to the bar and order. Water is self serve. Menus are placed on every table. No server or waiter.
Pros: Cocktails were delicious, atmosphere was dimly lit (for all to relax and chill), corner had a live DJ, music matched the mood (slightly loud, hard to hear your group chat), comfortable seating.
They also close at 12 am.
Would I come back, I guess so. But will most likely look for better options.

This was our second time at Aloha Beer. We were impressed that they remembered us and our dog Pepper. This is a super dog-friendly place, and the outdoor lanai seating is perfect for dogs and people. The always bring a bowl of water for the dog without being asked! Our server, Jericho (I think I remember that right - I'm horrible with names) was friendly, efficient and enthusiastic. The other staff members had a great time interacting with Pepper and us. We ordered the giant pretzel with cheese sauce while we waited for our friends. It was crisp on the outside and really soft on the inside. Not one of those chewy pretzels. The Queen Street Deluxe Pizza was delicious as well. We tried 3 beers. I had Mellow Waves which was nice and light and great for a warm lunchtime. My husband tried two IPA's and enjoyed both of them.
Really love the vibe of this place, as well as the beer! Food, so far on several visits, has been consistently good! Staff are friendly, but they are not great at checking on you when you need it - like just after your food comes to see if you need anything else. But that is a minor issue and won't stop us from returning to this fun, laid-back brewery restaurant.
We had a confirmed reservation. We arrived on time and we were turned away because a large party had bought out the restaurant. I understand mistakes happen. It would have been professional of the restaurant to email or call in advance or even apologize afterwards.
