Reviews summary

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!.

Was Corey Strock at Pacific Standard a mag?

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! View all feedback.

What Landen Flatley dislikes about Pacific Standard:

I had a flight. They brought out a beer I didn't order. When o said something, the waitress apologized, said she would bring out what I wanted, and never returned. The beer I did have was not good. The stout and porter were not as thick as they should be. Tastes like they did not use enough grains (which is how they save money), but this really effects the style and mouthfeel. Ambience is cool. The coffee porter need... View all feedback.

They have an extensive range of beers and a fantastic selection of happy hour specials. The beer shown in the picture was priced under $5.00!

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 attended a San Francisco Beer Week event here and I wasn't disappointed. The atmosphere was a bit low-key, but the bartender was attentive, ensuring I had a smooth experience. The cinnamon rolls were delicious, and the beer selection was exceptional. There were plenty of options, including Half Moon Bay Brewing and some guest brews. This place is definitely worth a visit!

Great selection of beers on tap. Their happy hour is sweet and the daily specials are great. 5 bucks off growler refills on Mondays, 20% off their Half Moon Bay bottled beers on Tuesdays, and other deals during the rest of the week that I cant remeber. But they are also great deals. I know one day has 2 dollars off 1 specific beer for the night, but i dont remeber if its Wednesday or Thursday. If youre in downtown Berkeley, its worth a visit.

A great tap room. About two dozen beers on tap, with a good balance of styles and lots of local breweries represented. Nice selection of snacks to go with the beer, but nothing you can easily make a big meal out of. Prices are on the higher end but the place is nice, the bar is well-staffed with great bartenders, and service is outstanding.
