This was my first time at Crooked Goat Brewing in Petaluma and I was so impressed! The space is…read moresuper welcoming with tons of seating options, and I loved that they have a 21+ area while still allowing kids in other parts of the brewery--really smart setup. Plus, they allow dogs, which is always a win! When you walk in, you order at the bar and grab your drinks right away. They don't have their own kitchen, but they partner with nearby spots for food. I had some delicious chicken strips, and my wife enjoyed a burger on a gluten-free bun with sweet potato fries. You get a number, and they bring the food out to your table. Everything was tasty--exactly the kind of comfort food you want while enjoying a brewery day. I also had a flight, and I LOVE that their flights are 3oz pours. It's perfect for trying a bunch of beers and figuring out what you like. There were lots of choices, and my IPA flight was a fun tasting experience--I enjoyed every one of them. All in all, Crooked Goat Brewing made a great first impression. I'd definitely come back!

We had the most amazing experience doing the Lagunitas Brewery Tour…read more Cassidy was a phenomenal tour guide who provided an incredible interactive experience which included tasting, learning about the intriguing history of Lagunitas, and tour of the brewery happenings. It was a total blast! Afterwards we enjoy lunch. The menu has various options and portions are a big bang for your buck. The outdoor seating area even on a rainy day is welcoming and comfortable. Highly recommend the tour and afterwards enjoying a meal at this wonderful establishment.

After ordering a beer, I asked where to get food and was told there was a food truck out front. The only option was pizza, and it felt overpriced for what we got. To make matters worse, the heaters above the tables weren't turned on and it was cold. Maybe this place is better on weekends or during events, but the night we went it just felt empty and disappointing.

Thank You HenHouse for having this event last weekend.

HenHouse is a regional popular brewery, and the Petaluma location is right across the street from…read moreLagunitas so it's an easy visit. This ended up being one of my top brewery visits on my entire trip, because of the staff, other customers, and excellent quality beer. This is their barrel house; they had outdoor seating, lots of tables, bar seating, and a separate private event space. The merchandise area is a little alcove near the door. I sat at the bar and had a flight, there were so many favorite styles on tap that I tried to have a nice selection of different ones. Due to how the evening progressed I ended up trying almost every beer on tap that night. On my visit it was trivia night, so I jumped on a team and made some friends. We ended up winning first place, they insisted I take the gift card prize and even bought me a case of IPA on the way out! I also had a quesadilla, maybe the best ever, from the pop up tent outside that evening. Prices were excellent of everything for the quality! If you're a beer fan in Petaluma, this is arguably the best brewery in town!

Food is great too, we love the chicken wings, poke, and sandwiches. We recently tried their brunch menu (on mother's day) and it was delicious!

Even when they are very busy service is still 10/10. Definitely stop by!

The environment is nice, so it was a good day to sit outside. We get seated by the host, who was very sweet. Our server was extremely rude, unkind and obviously in a rush to get us out of our table. Mind you- we didn't choose our table. Afterwards, we were ordering our drinks... and he wasn't paying attention at all and kept insisting my friend wanted a beer she clearly wasn't ordering. THEN, a different server came to bring our drinks. He was very sweet, and by accident he spilled a drink all over one of my friends. No big deal, he had 4 drinks on his tray, so we understood and told him it was fine. Our server then comes, and we asked if we could order our appetizers, and he rolled his eyes and asked rudely if we wanted to get our meals also. If it wasn't for his behavior, we would've liked to have tried the dinner options, but we decided to get our bill and leave. We didn't even notice if we got charged the spilled drink. We just wanted to pay & leave. The wings were pretty good, sad that an interaction like that can change an entire mood and setting in your night.

This was such a major disappointment! I came here on a Sunday evening with my boyfriend before…read moregoing to a concert at Mystic Theatre. I had been to the block before about a few years earlier and remember it being lively and fun filled with a handful of food options and a packed bar. This time, the establishment was almost completely empty with only two food options: the barbecue or the pizza. Both menus were extremely limited in terms of available options. I went with the barbecue platter and my boyfriend went with two slices of pepperoni pizza. While the pizza was decent, but nothing to write home about, I would never order that barbecue platter again. First of all, the mac & cheese that it came with was more like overcooked buttered noodles without seasoning. The pulled pork and the coleslaw tasted old as if it had been sitting out at room temp. I also thought it was weird that they gave me potato chips as another side, but to eat their own. The only thing I actually enjoyed were the side of pickles and who knows if those were even made or from a jar. It was cold outside, so we decided to sit under the enclosed portion of the building and flies swarmed us - they were everywhere and we were continuously swatting our hands around to try to get any relief. It was miserable experience and as soon as we were done eating, we just wanted to leave. I can see why people were not here after the disappointment my boyfriend and I felt.

Ads for Two…read moreRock Brewing led me here, their hours weren't correct online so I had to come back later the same day. This is a shared outdoor event space with restaurants, bars, and stage for live music. There was a good amount of people there, probably gets busier during events. I asked the bar about the brewery and was told there was currently only one selection from them on tap which was disappointing. It wasn't the most comfortable place to enjoy a beer either. Even if there had been more to experience, I probably wouldn't have bothered going back. One other note, the restrooms are singles and with so many people there was a long wait to use one. I'd imagine that'd be worse when busy.
