Description

Nestled in downtown Berkeley, this cozy restaurant and taproom boasts an inviting atmosphere, great food, and an impressive selection of beers on tap, including local favorites. While the beer offerings are diverse and appealing, some options may fall short in flavor and mouthfeel. The menu leans toward lighter snacks rather than hearty meals, but highlights like delicious cinnamon rolls keep patrons satisfied. With attentive service and fun events, including comedy shows on select Thursdays, it’s a perfect spot for casual hangouts or beer enthusiasts looking to enjoy a laid-back experience. Definitely worth a visit!.

This restaurant may be small, but it has a welcoming atmosphere and the food and drinks are excellent! Additionally, they host a comedy show every first and third Thursday from 8 PM to 10 PM, which is always a lot of fun.

I visited for a San Francisco Beer Week event, and I was really pleased with my experience. They were a bit short-staffed, but the bartender handled it well, so I wasn't bothered by that. The cinnamon rolls were delicious, and the beer selection was excellent. There were plenty of options, including brews from Half Moon Bay Brewing and other guest breweries. It's definitely worth a visit!
