    vegan cheesesteak and fries with chipotle dry rub
    Rob B.

    Finally got to visit 8-Bit. Been hearing about this place since I moved to this area about 6 years ago. There's a bunch of room for gathering and eating, inside or outside. The food surprisingly doesn't take long to get and I was concerned because we were hungry and there was no way to order online ahead of time. I know that a few years ago when most restaurants were hopping on the plant-based wave, they had more of those options that have disappeared- I recall seeing vegan pork rinds or something on their menu before and some other options. Gratefully, they still had the vegan philly cheesesteak, so that's what I got. The homies I went with told me the portions were pretty big, but I wasn't convinced. Lemme tell you, the portions are legit. The fries are interesting due to the dry rubs they offer-the flavors are like nothing that I'm used to, so I appreciate the originality. Seriously, the chipotle isn't quite cajun (I was hoping for something like 5 Guys cajun fries) but still good. Look at this vegan cheesesteak. It was very good, the cheese tasted great, it was hot and fresh, not dry. My buddies wanted to stay for awhile so I ended up ordering one to eat there and one to take home. Only thing I was it could've used a bit more salt, but that was a minor issue. I wasn't sure what to expect with this place. I thought there would be way more games and arcades than there was, but for the size of the building and everything offered, I'd say there was still a good amount. We had a good time and I wouldn't mind coming back again with fam.

    Great place to hang out and have a beer. They have an impressive beer selection, their sours and lagers were so good. There is a big arcade room in back, that is super family friendly. They staff was great and very helpful, offering recommendations since it was our first time visiting. I haven't tried their food, but I will be back to give it a try.

    A favorite brewery of ours. My fiancé and I had our first date here years ago, and we always come back on our date anniversary. Since we've been here so often, we've seen the changes throughout the years. Every time we come, he always tries to get the Hef 4 Dead and I always get the God of Pour. I'm a hazy IPA girl and u strongly believe their pours are always up to par and crisp. It's never a miss. Every time we come, we always make a habit of getting their fries. I don't recall ever getting the sweet and spicy flavor before today, but it was delicious. I believe their fries improve on a yearly basis. We went on weekend (today) and it was very busy. The tables and the bar side were filled up. I'd prefer to come on a weekday if time allows. Service is quick and easy. Food comes out quickly, even on bus days! See you again soon!

    On a rainy day here in Temecula, we needed something to do. After some heated discussions, we landed on 8 bit brewing because I wanted beer and the boys wanted an arcade. When I say "best of both worlds" I can't emphasize it enough. The arcade was awesome! We had so much fun playing skeeball and air hockey and the beer was crisp and helped me cope with the fact that I was, in fact, in public. I ordered the Greek plate and my *only* criticism is that it needed pickled onions. Other than that it was *chef's kiss* delicious. All in all, we had a blast. Will definitely be back to kick some more butt in air hockey.

    We've been coming here for years. It's been a tradition for us to stop by 8 Bit Brewery every-time we drive to LA from Las Vegas! This time around was solely to refill my husband beer fridge in our gaming room so it was a fun weekend brewery-hopping! We can both agree that 8 Bit is hands down our favorite brewery! From the amazing service that the beertenders provides each time, to their cool shirt designs.. we will always come back! So far we've collected in Merch: Joint Forces Tee The 8th Wonder Tee The Eye Of Souron Tee The Arcade Tee Circle 8 Mug Tee Local Katana Tee Jurassic Tart Tee Olive Patch Hat Super fun collecting the shirts with my husband and we love all their beer selections! We're on the hunt for the Jaws shirt now. We always come here to stock up beers for his fridge, and for a quick bite!

    Stopped in with a friend to check this place out while they were hosting a cornhole tournament. Since it was during off-hours, it wasn't too crowded, which gave us plenty of space to explore. They have an incredible selection of old-school arcade games and a ton of pinball machines! While I didn't try the food this time, the beers were excellen. Tthe IPA was fresh and the lager was crisp and clean. The staff was super helpful, offering samples and great recommendations based on what was on tap. If you love arcade games and quality beer, this place is a total gem. I'll definitely be back to log some more game time!

    This is a neat spot! Definitely hang out vibes. Reminds me of a fancier more upscale version of dave and busters but I love it. This is a brewery but they have wine. You get your money's worth on the wine. It is a Tad expensive but it is Temecula. I didn't have a chance to eat here this time around but I'd definitely come back and try the food. They have alot of good classic games. Just overall so much fun. Staff overall was polite. Place was clean. Have very nice outdoor seating and seating inside as well and at the bar. Parking isn't to bad.

    Beer list
    Eric H.

    First time staying overnight in Temecula so needed a place for dinner. This was super convenient to "hotel row" between Rancho California and Winchester, along the 15. The beer list is long enough to suit nearly anyone - I got a flight of tasters and liked the dark Czech Pilsner enough for seconds. They don't have a full bar or ciders, so the only beer alternative is a short wine list (Cabernet, rose, Pinot Gris - all local). Food was very good - we always share a big pretzel when we find one, and theirs was good. Loved the hit pastrami (fries were outstanding) and my wife really liked her chicken salad. Service was great, across two servers (Ian and Jackie). Would definitely return here!

    They host special event in October you dont want to miss
    Cyndi C.

    We have been coming here since the beginning of time and didn't realized I havent posted a review. I am really enjoying their current food menu, and like they are promoting a different special every week. Can't ever go wrong with their beer selection and different drink options (just no cocktails) but do offer seltzer on tap and wine bottles. Service is really good, haven't had any issues with anyone. (Shout out to Brennan and Shane) Ambiance super chill Can't go wrong with the Arcade, my kids love it. All electronic on a card so you won't be losing coins/cash. Next time you are in town, totally recommend this place

    Sour beer!
    Heather H.

    Our office wanted to have a fun holiday party and this place hit the spot! Good food, fun and drinks we stayed for several hours. We ordered a bunch of food and drinks then we played for hours. It was really a great time. Staff was friendly and it wasnt too busy. We came in on a Thursday afternoon and stayed until closing (9pm) the only thing we weren't a fan of was the Greek plate, it just didn't have the right things in it. Overall great experience and we will be coming back again.

    No Fly Zone- DDH West Coast IPA
    Cortlyn R.

    I stopped here to have lunch with a friend and we were both pleasantly surprised. It's such a cool Brewery with arcade games, great food, and tasty beer!! I tried the West Coast DDH IPA called The No Fly Zone. It was a super tasty beer. For food I got the New York steak sandwich and it was so good!!! The steak was seasoned perfectly and the aioli was so tasty. I also really loved their fries. They are so perfectly seasoned. My friend got the Blacked Mahi Sandwich and it was also very tasty! The place was pretty packed as it was a Saturday afternoon. But our food came quickly and the line to order went by fast too. I love the open seating! I think they do have a patio that you can wait to be sat at and get waited on, but we opted for the self seating area and you just go up to the bar and place your drink and food orders. I'd definitely come back to 8 Bit if I'm ever in the area again!! Yummy food and great vibes.

    Kelsi G.

    I don't drink much, but I wanted to stop by and try this spot. The ambiance is very fun - they have a barcade area as well as open seating in a quieter, spacious area. Service from the bartenders was a bit unsatisfactory - pretty short and didn't offer much help. They offer a good range of nerd-centric beers and some pretty decent appetizers. I would suggest the grilled cheese! I would probably return for a drink on a weekday with less people :)

The beers were decent, I'm more of a stout guy but got one of their blonds and it was ok, but they don't have a huge selection but you can see they stick to lighter beers. The food was actually pretty good, sometimes breweries don't have great food but the pretzel was actually pretty good with the dips. The fries/ ships were interesting they were soft and slightly crispy. Some friends got the nachos and they were decent too. We all enjoyed our time here while they did a little Ren Fair and I'm sure we will come back.
