The private room had a wedding gathering, it's a good sized room to have an event, tons of seating. I got the Beyond Burger which was delicious.

It had been a while since we had last come here, so it was fun to be back and enjoy some of our favorite beers. It was a beautiful day, and they had live music. They also had a couple of large-screen TVs set up showing the World Cup game. Our server was very helpful, answering our questions about beer and bringing us a couple of samples before deciding what to order. I asked for my favorite light beer, DayTime, and we decided to share an order of chicken wings, fries, and their P-Town Chop Salad. The beer was as good as I remembered, and the food was well-made and delicious, especially the wings (with Buffalo sauce). They allow dogs, as long as they are well-behaved and on a leash, so our little guy had fun saying hello to a couple of dogs that were sitting nearby in between his breaks from begging for treats from the table. We spent a couple of hours there before heading home.

I also ordered a few pints of their seasonal Big Chicken, which is an absolute must whenever it's available. Smooth, flavorful, and dangerously easy to keep ordering. The atmosphere was great--relaxed, welcoming, and exactly what you want from a brewery. As an added bonus, there was a Mexican food truck on-site during our visit, which paired perfectly with the beers and made the experience even better. One of the best parts is the location: it's literally across the street from Lagunitas, making it incredibly easy to turn your visit into a full brewery-hopping day. If you're in the area and enjoy craft beer, this spot deserves a stop on your itinerary. Great beer, great food options, great vibe, and a fantastic selection. I'll definitely be back.

They weren't at all busy so there was no reason for this, I can see why they weren't busy. The prices are way too high for what it is. I have no problem paying for good food and service but the $100 price tag for 2 chicken sandwiches, 1 chicken wings, 1 ice cream, and 1 16oz IPA that was all nasty horrible with bad service is just not right.

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.

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.

Turns out other friends have it on their wishlist as well, so I'm glad for making the stop. The brewery is a quick drive off the highway, in an commercial park area with lots of big shade trees and green lawns. The brewery is beautifully landscaped with big trees, flowers, potted plants, and an outdoor drinking area with umbrella tables which also have warmers for those cooler evenings. On the day of our visit, it was extra hot in the afternoon so we went inside. It has a clean and comfy vibe, with high ceilings, cozy lighting, a clear tap list, and nice tables of different sizes around the bar. At the back is a merchandise area and restrooms. I love their owl theme, great designs and fun items. The beers were also excellent, I tried a few IPAs mostly sticking with favorite hops and one collab that sounded great. The bartender on our visit wasn't friendly or welcoming at all, and was that way with just about everyone else there. Oh well. I still highly recommend checking this place out for the quality of the beer and a great venue to enjoy it in.

Walk inside and you feel like you're at a cool party! Every bartender/ mixologist knows their stuff making well crafted cocktails. All the ingredients going in the drinks are quality.

Additionally their spirits are offered to purchase there. I picked up a wonderful vodka, a gin as well as a delicious shrub syrup to add to cocktails.

Though due to ownership changes we were told we no longer could have our event as planned and needed to find a new venue less than a month out from our large event. Without hesitation Kat said absolutely we will do whatever we can to accommodate you all. Rewind several months back and Kat reached out to me to see how we could collaborate. She wanted to ensure her space was welcoming, inclusive and a space that everyone, especially those in the LGBTQIA2S+ community knew they could come to and feel and be safe and have fun. With pre-planning for our event Kat was down to earth, easy going, personable and did all she could to try and say "yes" to all of our needs. She went out of her way to ensure that all of the kids at our event were safe and that there was space for everyone. If it was not for Kat and her team our event would not have been able to happen, which would have been very challenging for our organization, as our event is what helps financially sustain us throughout the year. Thank you, Kat, team and Griffos for opening your arms and hearts to us and for doing all that you can to ensure that the LGBTQIA2S+ community knows that they are safe and welcome at Griffos.

It's located out in a commercial park area, which was surprisingly beautiful and serene. They have a large parking lot, and share restrooms with the offices inside. Outside is a big beer garden area, perfect seating for any weather or mood. The interior is high ceilings with a metal/cement industrial vibe but still comfortable with wood tables and lots of happy customers. They only do full or half pours, no flights here, but they have lots of beers to choose from. They also have a great selection of 4-packs for takeout. A water stand is next to the bar. I had a great visit here; we arrived in an afternoon and it was still busy. Both beers I ordered were delicious, and I wanted to try more (next time I will at the new Petaluma location). Prices were also reasonable for the quality. Huge shout out to social manager CT for immediately coming out to say hello, and for the drink tokens for next time!

A nice breeze, pretty views, and some of the friendliest service you could ask for. We started with the Shishito Peppers and the Peach Salad, and they were both absolutely wonderful. I had the Korean Short Ribs, and my hubby ordered the Squash Burger. Bless their hearts..... they sure know how to cook! Every bite was delicious. I also treated myself to a Dunkel beer, which is mighty hard to find, and I just loved it! We'll most definitely be making our way back to Taps on the River. If you find yourself over in Petaluma, I'd sure recommend stopping by. It's one of those places that just makes you want to sit a spell, enjoy the view, and savor a good meal.
