I really enjoy coming here. Staff is friendly portions are sizable, restrooms are clean. I would recommend the cilantro bowl, the clam chowder, their burgers pretty decent. And they have a cauliflower dish that's pretty crazy. Their brews are pretty outstanding as well. If you're looking for Bud Light or Miller light or Coors light or any of those things you're not gonna find that here. It's a brewery. read more

We hosted our son and future daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner at Auburn Alehouse, and it was absolutely phenomenal. We feel so blessed that this special evening took place there. Lisa Ford, the co-owner, went above and beyond in every possible way. She designed a menu within our budget, created a customized bar menu, and she and her amazing team decorated, cooked, served, and made the patio feel warm, beautiful, and welcoming. They truly handled everything with such care and excellence. We were able to play our own customized Spotify playlist on the back patio for a fun Yacht Rock Friday night feeling, and their IT/AV support, Randy, helped us play a personalized video of the couple on the patio TV throughout the evening. It made the night feel even more personal and special. The food was truly the chef's kiss, the beer by Brian Ford, co-owner and brewmaster, was incredible, and the service was outstanding. Trista and the wait staff were fun, attentive, and made our guests feel so well taken care of. One of the best parts of the evening was seeing our son and daughter-in-love so happy and surrounded by incredible family and friends who enjoyed honoring and celebrating them. Our guests could not stop talking about how wonderful the food, service, atmosphere, and overall experience were. Auburn Alehouse is family-owned, community-forward, and an incredible craft brewpub. It is a wonderful place for private events, date nights, gatherings, celebrations, or simply a great meal with great beer. If you are in Auburn, driving from Reno to the Bay Area, or heading up the mountain, stop here. They are also a fantastic choice for private events and can work with your budget. They even host private events at their Annex across the street. We are so grateful we chose Auburn Alehouse for such an important family celebration. Highly recommend! We will be back - over & over & over! Huge Mahalo Lisa & Brian!! read more

Delicious experience from start to finish. I had the Ember Burger and it was excellent--well cooked, flavorful, and satisfying without being overdone. The fries stood out too; crispy, and clearly not an afterthought. Service was friendly and efficient, and the overall food quality was consistently solid across the board. It's the kind of place that gets the basics right and still manages to feel like a step above casual dining. Definitely worth a stop for lunch or dinner if you're in or traveling through Auburn. Reliable, tasty, and easy to recommend. read more

Crispy chicken club, regular fries and a gold country pilsner. I'd stopped ordering chicken clubs due to years of utter failure. Bree, my waiter, was confident that theirs was worth a try. Unbelievably, this was so good, (and much) I struggled to stop myself halfway through! Luckily I was able to sooth myself with the promise that my air-fryer could adequately revive it. (Gluttony is my kryptonite.) Thank you, Bree, for your excellent guidance and hospitality. *And thank you for suggesting that I take a six pack of this Old country pilsner home with me. I'm visiting from out of town and I'm just tickled with how well my day in Auburn has turned out. read more

This is a very cute place with a great location. Parking is a little tricky so if you have someone with a cane or knee issue, I'd drop them right out front. The food was good. There was a varied beer list and the wait staff was very friendly and helpful. They even took our photo for us from several angles. read more

Has to bring a few people with me to have a late lunch. Thanks to Sophie and Vince for the great service! (And all the staff) got seated right away - it was about 4pm on a Friday. There was people here but not crowded. They have inside dining, patio and bar service. The beer was great! Ordered Hop Donkey - it's a strong one so it comes in that smaller glass. The food was amazing!!!! Can't wait to come back again!!! read more

I popped into Auburn Alehouse to check out the hype and watch the NFL games. I walked in and was told the bar was open seating. There were many seats and lots of their beer on draft. There were also high top tables behind me. Anthony was my bartender. He was patient with me as I looked over their beer menu. I went with the Gold Digger IPA. It was very tasty! My friend joined me and got the My Friday Hazey IPA. That one was even tastier. I also indulged in a margarita. I am not a fan of table salt on the rim, though. I like the flaky rocky salt better. We did decide to get a snack. Their brew house pretzels and it comes with bacon crumbles, Old Town Brown beer cheese, and spicy mustard. I thought it was supposed to come with crumbled bacon and scallions on top of the pretzel, but what I received was a pretzel, plain with salt. I guess the bacon crumbles were on top of the beer cheese??? No scallions, though. I was not a fan. These pretzels were not soft and fluffy. Although salted, the pretzel itself didn't taste good. Our bartender, Anthony, said it may have been overcooked. So they took it off our bill. My bartop neighbor and her husband got burgers... and I would definitely be interested in trying those next time! They looked picture perfect! read more

Great service- typical brewhouse menu and experience of booming background chatter from large happy gatherings and a friendly helpful staff who is ready to answer any and every question you may have about the food, the beer, or what fun things there are to do in the area. We stopped to eat here before our journey over the I-80 back to Reno and found the Cilantro Lime Rice Bowl to be the perfect fuel for the drive ahead. No surprises there, sometimes a good cilantro lime rice bowl is just a good cilantro lime rice bowl. Absolutely would come back again. read more

Sat at the bar on this visit and we were treated swiftly by the bar tender. We sampled the following, Basil Hayden Old Fashioned, Pilsner and a charcuterie board. The board contained a grilled bratwurst, smoked cheddar, bacon jam, pickled onions ,crostini toast, stone ground mustard. All well prepared and plenty for both of us to share. Couple of new beers on tap, sampled a taster of the Rev Limit Pilsner & the Mrs tried a sample of the stout. High quality beer, cocktail's food and service. read more

This was a tasty wonderful stop, Alexis B my server had fantastic recommendations for food and beer and was very attentive and the Rubin sandwich was one of the best I've ever had. I wish the plate itself didn't look so scratched up and they had prices on their beer menu but overall that's about it. I enjoy my stop and meal here and would comeback! read more

We came here with a group of 6 in the middle of the day on Friday. We were told our wait would be 30 minutes. After 55 minutes we went inside to ask for an update and were told we would be next. Another 15 minutes later we were finally seated. Our server Alexis was genuinely sweet and amazing. She took great care of us even though she mentioned she was not feeling well and would be leaving soon. Once she left our new server was Courtney. The service completely changed. She was short with us from the start and barely came around. She acted like she would rather be anywhere else. Food wise the cheese bread was burnt and the kids burger was also burnt but everything else we ordered tasted great. When we asked for the check and asked Courtney to split it she said okay then came back with an unsplit check. Before we could even say anything she placed it on the table and walked away quickly. I had to get up and ask the host to pass on the message. From our table we could see the POS system and watched Courtney roll her eyes shake her head at us and at the check. She then dropped the check back on our table without a single word. This was my second time coming here and it will probably be my last. The first time I was here we were sat in the back and forgotten about. The food is good (other than the burnt bread) but the service is consistently disappointing. This place feels over hyped and the employees clearly need support and training read more

We really enjoyed our time here. It was Easter and they had a special menu just for the day. It was cute and a nice touch. Even though it was busy the service was still really good and the food was cooked perfectly. We enjoyed all our dishes and the dessert was amazing. Best of all their desserts are made there. read more

Burgers are on the small side. Beer was good. Gave the bartender jillian my master card debit card. Said was declined 3 times. Called 800 number on card. Bank said merchant issue. Then was taken to another register and was accepted. Rather embarrassing. Would definitely not be going back there again. read more

Driving through Auburn is the best because you get to stop for lunch at the awesome Auburn Alehouse! Today we had the Ahi tacos & the Alehouse Burger. Zero complaints. DEFINITELY WORTH THE TRIP! I got the ahi tacos seared & the waitress let me do the different slaws on each taco. Plus it came with wonton chips. Will eat this again. Every time they have an ahi option it's always delicious! & my lady got the burger cooked medium with fries. She LOVED it! read more

Came here unexpectedly and was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful the interior is--especially sitting by the windows with a great view. Unfortunately, after waiting about 15 minutes without being greeted, my partner and I decided to move to the bar instead. We had a couple of drinks, which were reasonably priced, and the staff at the bar was welcoming and friendly. We didn't try the food, as a nearby guest ordered a fish dish that had a noticeably strong odor, which turned us away. Overall, it's a great spot to enjoy a drink. Parking can be tricky during peak hours, but they do offer both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Fun spot with a terrific beer selection and hardy food menu. Good choices are the Rueben, chicken club and the chopped salad. All full of flavors and modestly priced. Opt for the sweet potato fries with any sandwich and be sure to stay with the brioche bun. Dogs are welcome on the back patio which is actually quite comfortable and quieter than the main dining room. Enjoy! read more

This restaurant was worth the stop, very neat place. The little town itself was so beautiful. We had some beers, which were all delicious, and some appetizers. Service was excellent, but the hostess was not so friendly, it was not busy so I'm not sure what her deal was. Would still come back to try more of their menu items. read more

Went to Auburn Ale house with my daughter after the dmv on a day date. Our waiter was super friendly and we sat out on the covered patio. The fried pickles were great! The Reuben sandwich and it was yummy. My daughter got the spinach salad and she loved it. It's a great little pub and we are more than likely to pop in again if we are in the Auburn area. Wish I took more pictures. read more

We meaning my husband and I and came in for the first time Today with 2 friends we shared the garlic bread loaf it was good but definitely needed more sauce on the bottom but it tasted so good. I also got the espresso tini I do wish there was a vanilla fome on top of it even with the beans but even without it, it was so good. My husband and our friends got different beers. Our service was really good other then when they made my husband just hardly out of the way mind you the bar was very full and so was the restaurant like there was no room at all and the lady said it to him in a rude way. The bathrooms were somewhat clean, it was also nice that they had the football games on. We came in at close to 1:30pm in the afternoon time and our bill was over $100s with everything. We do plan on coming back and trying different things. read more

I've been so eager to try this little gem since it opened up years ago! My husband and I decided to eat here recently while Downtown visiting a jeweler across the street, and I'm so glad we did! First, it's a real cool and comfortable place inside that feels homey and quaint, and I love the ambiance here. The waitress was super amazing as well and gave us time to order from their vast menu (which all of it sounded so good!) and he decided on country fried chicken and mashed potatoes, and I ordered the fish and chips. I love fish and chips and theirs were VERY GOOD! They were perfect, and my husband liked the chicken and mashed potatoes, too! They give you a good serving,moto and the German ale I had was so good! The service was great and so was the food! This is definitely a great asset to old Auburn and I can't wait to come back! I can just imagine how fun it would be to come here with friends for great food and some great beer! Fantastic place, here! read more

My friends and I stopped her after a hike and had a wonderful experience. We sat on the back patio since we had a dog with us. They are dog friendly and even provided our furry friend to some water. They provide a fan for the table b/c as other reviewers have mentioned there seems to be lots of flies back there. Considering it's a brewery, it is no surprise that they have a great selection of beers on tap including a really nice sour. I opted for a mocktail with passionfruit which was quite refreshing. Service was friendly, fast and they were on top of everything. The ambiance is as you would expect for a brewery - laid back yet could be lively if you're there for the lunch or dinner rush. The menu offers something for everyone including an array of fresh salads, bar food style appetizers (which pair perfectly with beer), tacos, pasta, and a very tasty housemade veggie burger that can take the place of a regular burger if you're vegetarian. Portions are generous. One friend ordered fish tacos, the other a cheese loaf and we all shared the fries. Would def come here again when I'm out this way. read more

Omg! This place was unreal! Get their fried pickles they might change your life. Loved my burger too and the Mac and cheese! Hit the spot. Great drinks as well. read more

Stopped for a quick dinner on the way to Truckee. I was worried they would be busy on a Friday night; there was a good amount of people at the bar but we got seated right away. The sour beer was delicious, food portions were generous and solid. We shared the fried chicken club, fish and chips and the chopped salad. If you're not too full, I recommend the bread pudding for dessert! read more

What I enjoyed most here was the ambiance and service--both were great! Our server was fantastic and I regret not getting her name. We came with a large party, and I was impressed that all of our food came out correctly and at the same time. As mentioned our server was attentive and friendly, which made the experience smooth. That said, the food itself felt pretty basic to me--more along the lines of an Applebee's style menu than something memorable. It was fine, just nothing that really stood out. I also noticed several flies inside, which was odd and a little distracting during the meal. Overall, I'd definitely go back for the atmosphere, but the food wouldn't be the main draw for me. Still getting 5 stars as Yelp doesn't give option for 1/2 stars ~ which would have been my choice 4 1/2 read more

This is our go-to stop when driving through Auburn. Menu has tons of great options for meat, vegetarian, and some seafood. Beef is yummy and service is friendly. We sit outside with our dog. They even have an outdoor ac unit on their patio for hot days! read more

We visited Auburn Alehouse and started with the ponzu poke nachos and the pickle chips. The ponzu poke nachos were incredible. Fresh tuna perfect seasoning crunchy wonton chips and everything tasted bright and balanced. Easily a 10 out of 10. The pickle chips were good but nothing I would rush back for. For our main dish we ordered two steak and frites and this is where everything fell apart. The steak itself looked fine at first glance but once we cut into it it had almost no seasoning and no real flavor. The chimichurri on top tasted flat and didn't help much. The real issue though was the fries. They came out completely drenched in oil to the point where the fries were soggy heavy and almost inedible. You can literally see the oil pooling on the plate in the picture. I had to ask for a fresh order and the difference between the replacement fries and the original ones was night and day which tells me our first batch should have never left the kitchen. I ordered the habanero margarita and it was delicious. Perfect balance of spice and citrus. The ambience is fun and lively and although service was slow at first Courtney ended up being amazing and super attentive. Overall I learned my lesson with the steak and frites and will definitely try the burger next time. read more

A group of 10 men descended about noon for one of our weekly lunches, on a Thursday during the Holiday Season. We have been here several times in the past ; however, today was a more crowded day. Because of that we were seated out on the covered patio. There are heaters out there so it was chilly but comfortable. Parking was a problem but everyone eventually found a space either on the street or in one of the public lots. We had 4 Jambalaya, 4 Fish and Chips and a couple burgers. All the food was excellent. The beer selection was good and the service was professional. They were well staffed to handle a large group showing up. Our beverage consumption was watched and at the appropriate time our server asked if we needed more. In all a good experience. read more

Usually love Auburn Alehouse. Bad experience this week. Ordered pastrami (Reuben sandwich). I have never seen pastrami that was dark brown. I asked to return as it looked odd. Was told that's what it looks like. By the time this back and forth with the chef was done my husband had finished his dinner. I was offered something to go. I said no I would still like to eat something warm and fresh. I ordered a burger which was good. I ate about 30 minutes after my husband. No apology by manager or offer to comp the burger. Not looking for free food but it was a very disappointing experience. read more

Went with my mom. Basic American style food. We ordered a well done burger which was burnt to a crisp. It is also such a small burger and this is their main burger on the menu..The frose is a frozen cube with a couple of blueberries and raspberries with champagne poured over it The fried pickles were gross. They weren't like the actual pickle fried. It's like the sliced the pickles really thin then fried but all the skin came off when eating which is fine but then you got small slices of pickle. The servers are so kind. The ambiance is fun cus of the people around you. But yeah, the food isn't great. read more
