Contribute Feedback What Stephanni T likes about Barley Forge Brewing Company:
I can't believe this place is closing after five awesome years. We come to this place a lot, and the staff, beer, and food have always been great. I think it's a shame their landlord is pushing them out. They bring a lot of foot traffic to the area, so I am not sure what I'm missing here. Farewell barley forge, I'll miss you guys a lot!!! Ps) the owner Maryanne will be missed too! View all feedback.
What Matt F doesn't like about Barley Forge Brewing Company:
Barley Forge is now closed, and while they were the first big brewery in Costa Mesa, the hardcore craft beer scene in Orange County is mostly relieved to see them gone. While their intentions may have been good before opening the brewery, they had a long run of serving consistently low quality or infected beers and treating their staff poorly. They do get an extra star for serving decent food and having free popcorn. View all feedback.
Check your credit card statements. You calculated me $82 for a $34 order. My reception clearly says $34.63. If I hadn't checked my credit, I would never have caught it. Update: I called her and was forwarded to a woman who told me she would investigate and return to me. Since then, I have called her several times over 3 days without answer and she has not returned any of my voicemails. I think this random overload was intentional because they are not willing to solve the problem. My credit card company must deny the charges in my name. Strange.
Good food and beer, although most of the beers were not stylistic in my wheelhouse (although the Coconut Rye Stout is in the middle of my strike zone? Don't miss! The space is not as large as one could imagine; it was pretty busy during the chargers game on Sunday afternoon, but not so busy our party of three could find a place. I would definitely come back for burgers, perpetrators and beer.
This place was fun! The beer selection was good, I made a flight and all the beers I chose were delicious. We had about 20 people party here and it was easy to take us and many board games to keep us entertained!
Good beers. The food was good. Tuna sandwich had a nice presentation, but was average. Fries were a little limp. Bare burgers really good.
Great beer, good food. The owner will most likely be there and she has a very nicely run place. You wont go wrong coming here.
