This was one of the most amazing gems of a brewery I have ever stepped foot in. Please please try the smoked lager if you are a fan of mezcal you will LOVE this beer. The food is spectacular, there are books to read and outdoor spaces to enjoy. The staff is willing to stop and chat about beer,I didnt want to leave!!!! Please check it out for yourself and thank me later. Have the perky turkey sandwich.

Lovely microbrewery just far enough off the main road to feel like a little retreat. A nice selection of beer types, which included a saison, granting it instant bonus points.
Very nice folks too. They took the time to explain their cave-aged beers, which is a feature unique to their location. Branding and march is on point too.
Most seating is outdoors with plenty of shaded spots and an outdoor stage.
I'm already planning my next trip to Roughhouse. It stands apart from the microbrewery pack and well worth the drive.

What a lovely place to find tonight! The high ratings drew us to try, and, wow, we were delighted! Kind staff, great food options and beer, play area plus soccer, well maintained landscaping to walk around, pavilions with cement flooring to enjoy the beautiful nature surrounding this hidden gem! We bright a few games and it was a great evening with a breeze! If I can give feedback on food: one more kid's option and one more side option for the sandwiches to offer variety for a large family/group who may want to taste different flavors. Thanks for the chat at the end of evening!

Very cool place! I love breweries that do half pours so you can try more on a single visit, but have more than what you get in a flight. The beers are amazing and the ambience is perfect. Hope to be back.

Great place for everyone!

We tried it for the first time yesterday evening. What a gem we have here! Yep, we're going to become regulars.
If you're anywhere near San Marcos, do yourself a favor and make the trip to **Roughhouse Brewery** - a true Texas treasure tucked away in the beautiful Hill Country. Locally owned and run by the passionate and welcoming duo, Davy and Alex, this brewery is more than just a place to grab a drink- it's a full-on experience.
Davy pours his heart and soul into the creation of his beer. You can tell with every refreshing sip. The sandwiches are thoughtfully made, flavor-packed that pair perfectly with their brews. It’s the kind of food that feels just rustic enough to match the vibe, but still gourmet enough to impress a serious foodie.
Speaking of vibes - Roughhouse nails it. The setting is stunning, with a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere that makes you want to kick back and stay awhile - it's pure Texas charm. You’ll feel like you're hanging out at a friend’s ranch (a friend who happens to be a genius at beer and sandwiches).
Roughhouse stands out not just for their top-tier beer and delicious food, but for the heart and authenticity that Davy and Alex bring to every part of the experience.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 would recommend. This place is a *must-visit* for anyone who loves good beer, good food, and even better people.

Stopped in while passing through and weren't disappointed. Some truly inspiring brews beyond the usual ales and lagers and all delicious. Enough so to get some to go. Wished I could have had more time to enjoy all of them.

Such a wonderful and welcoming brewery. Delicious sandwiches as well. And an amazing huge outdoor area with a play area for the kids. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Ventured out here for Barks With Beers and man was this trip worth it. Great establishment with delicious beer. Very spacious and lots of fun things to see. The staff was excellent and very knowledgeable. Will definitely be adding this to our brewery rotation and excited to bring friends and family here. Roughhouse raised the bar for what I thought breweries should be!
