My go to place for decades now! Employee-owned brewery in a funky old warehouse with tons of tvs. Always great, fresh, unique crafted brews on tap and fun creative menu. A number of my favorite foods are only on the Happy Hour (3 to 6) menu including Mac & Cheese, Nachos and a perfectly crisped Cheese Crisp like nothing in town. Staff can get overly busy and officious, but are responsive and kind, if not friendly. read more

I was happy to finally visit *the* brewery of Southern Arizona. I know there are certainly competitors, but outside of Tucson, this is the only Tucson beer around. It's even better when you get it straight from the source. What I love: An expanded selection of small-batch beers you won't find anywhere else. There were like 3 IPAs I'd never heard of before. They even had a lager made with pickles! (not my thing, but it has fans). You can also tell right away this spot is great for large groups, and the patio is like 50 feet long--probably amazing in better weather What I like: You can't go wrong with the food, either. I'm a big fan of the southwestern egg rolls (a better rendition of them than a certain chain restaurant). The sandwiches are decent. Nothing really sticks out as a signature item, and nothing is made with a particular beer pairing in mind, but I'll forgive them--it's solid food. When it cools down a bit, I'll certainly return here to try more lesser-known beers and a snack. The location is a little out of the way, but you won't regret going a couple miles outside of downtown for this. read more

We enjoyed lunch and some drinks at Barrio Brewing. It was recommended from someone on our camping app (RV Trip Wizard). It's not far from the campground, and we actually stopped after visiting Saguaro National Park. It's dark inside (as are most "sports" pubs or breweries). You pick a seat and someone will come to you. Our server was great! Food was really good: French dip and pastrami sandwich. Big portions so we took home leftovers! Good selection of beer. I had a refreshing watermelon/vodka drink. Prices are reasonable. They also have an outdoor patio, but way too hot for this time of year. read more

Very spacious and open brewery with a welcoming atmosphere. We sat at the bar, and our beer tender acknowledged us promptly, handed us the menus, and asked if we were ready to order. We needed a little more time to choose the right beer. My partner wanted a pilsner, but unfortunately they didn't have one available at the time, so we went with their famous Barrio Blonde. I've had Barrio Blonde on many occasions at other places, but this one tasted unusually bitter and a bit flat. It seemed like the beer may have gotten warm at some point and was later cooled again, affecting the flavor. We were hungry, so we ordered the patty melt. The burger was good, with a flavorful patty and perfectly toasted bread. The bathrooms were also very clean, which is always appreciated. Overall, service was friendly and attentive, but the beer quality this visit was disappointing. read more

Service great. Good selection of items. Unique ambiance with cool lights. Will be back.

I went to lunch with a couple of customers who had apparently been there several times before and recommended we go for lunch. The place is large with ample seating both indoors and outdoors. The ambiance is somewhat loud as one would expect from a brewery. The service provided by Reyann was great, she was friendly and checked on us throughout our visit. I had a Caesar salad with chicken and left fully satisfied. The lettuce was fresh, the chicken tasty and the croutons were light and crunchy! All in all, a good business lunch. read more

Barrio Brewing - Chicken Caesar salad - Breweries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This place was good! I was hungry and needed a beer and I got just that. Service is friendly. There are two sides of this place. When you walk up, going through the left door will be a more chill and quiet vibe. The main seating area is the door to your right. Both sides have tvs. Ordered the pub fish tacos. Tortillas were delicious. The batter was perfectly fried and there was plenty of toppings on it. The salsa that comes with it is delicious. Only thing I would have done different would maybe substitute the side of beans and cheese with something else. Those tasted canned. I ordered a flight of beer. They were cold. Blonde was solid. The raspberry golden ale tasted a bit like medicine... the red ale was a solid red ale and the nitro was smooth. Glad I came here. read more

Barrio Brewing - Flight of beer. - Breweries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I've heard of Barrio often by coworkers as it's a frequent after-work meetup spot near 1-10 for travelers in either direction. I had a random free afternoon and decided to check it out. Pretty interesting building there right on the train tracks. It's got a cool dive bar feel inside with a large beer and food menu, good variety there. I went with a flight to try a few - Mexican lager, Hefeweizen, razzberry, and a mocha Java stout (maybe messed up the names a bit, but you get the idea). The hefe was my favorite, and my husbands, too. The razzberry one was a close second, but I could have done without the other two, not my cup of tea but wanted to give them a try! I don't see Sonoran hot dogs on menus often and being new to Tucson, I've been super curious about them so that was my meal choice. DIVINE. It's hard to mess up a hot dog. But this was a really good hot dog. Would order again and again. The price was right as well - $7! We thought the entire menu was very reasonably priced, compared to others in the area offering similar varieties. My husband had a cheesesteak that he said was really good, he would also order it again. Overall, we had a solid experience. Good beer and good food. I do want to add that this isn't my first time attempting to visit Barrio - we tried once before but were blocked by the train. We tried to wait it out but didn't know how long it would be and gave up after about 15 minutes. Just kind of a bummer of a location for a place with good food and beer. I did see on their menu that they offer $1 off beer if you get stuck because of the train, that is a nice touch. But, there's no perks like that if you are on the other side. It looses a star for that. read more

Typical brewery vibe here, nothing special, but felt warm and cozy on a January evening. For the most part, it was easy to tune out others while having our food. The waitress gave us a lot of great information about the beers on tap and recommendations for food based on our preferences, which was much appreciated. I tried the Hefeweizen, which was pretty lemony and grassy. The pesto panini bread was light and crunchy, chicken was grilled but moist, and the pesto and cheese were aplenty. The waitress recommended this item for diners wanting protein and cheese, and it definitely delivered. The side of fries were yummy with the housemade tartar sauce ($1 extra though??) Nevertheless, everything was reasonably priced and the food was very good read more

Come food the food. The beer is just okay for this craft beer lover. But the food menu is great and should satisfy all in your crew. I enjoyed the tortilla soup and sandwich and others enjoyed the burgers and Mexican food. They have salads as well as veggie burgers.

Our hotel manager recommended Barrio Brewing. He said it was worth the 20 minute drive. He was right. It's a large place, not fancy by any means, but a nice, casual atmosphere. It was quite crowded but we were able to find a table. We started with spinach and artichoke dip. It was good, just a little different than we're used to. Our mixed drinks were also good. We split a Rueben sandwich which was delicious. The corned beef was extremely lean, which at so many places is not the case. There also was ample sauerkraut, another rare feature. Their own brewed beer selection was wide. I loved their porter and my wife enjoyed her light IPA. The service was very good, our server was friendly and outgoing. We'll be back! read more

Good place to stop after a TCC event. Stopped in after a Sun eve hockey game on the way home and the place was active, but not crowded, so prime parking was plentiful. The dinner crowd had just left or was leaving. We were looking for something light to eat since it was late for dinner and we also didn't want to be out late. We found 2 seats at the bar and were promptly served- nice. We quickly received two ice cold pints. Inside is dark and kinda divey, but it was nice for quiet conversations. Barrio has a nice selection of shareable appetizers, of note are the "Southwestern Egg Rolls". These are crispy, deep fried egg rolls with a chili, beans, cheese type Texican filling cut into small bites and served with a mild salsa dip. Definitely hit the spot. Also a hit were the bone-in chicken wings with the cilantro-tequila dip. There were about 10 wings in the order and came hot from the fryer. Not overly spicy. The combination of the two appetizers were just right to split as a light meal. Combined with the two beers, the total was $41, pre-tip. read more

First time here. Cool spot near the train tracks and industrial area of Tucson. The brewery is in this old large turn of the century warehouse that serves a wide selection of brewskies and some good food. Our hostess and waitress were able to accommodate our puppy so we sat outside and enjoyed the warm Arizona winter holiday weather. Good place to come to see football or practically any sporting event. They have large tvs inside. They serve a wide variety of southwestern and bar food that def hits the spot with a great beer. I ordered the IPA but also tasted the blonde. Both great! I ordered the wings which had a kick ass good on the side dipping sauces. The habanero is fire. Literally! And their BBQ sauce is bomb -- def try them. Also the Tequila Cilantro sauce is well liked by a lot of the locals so worth a try. Good place for brews on a hot day. Def will be back! ;-) read more

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite places in Tucson. I absolutely love the vibe of Barrio Brewing. It's energetic without being loud, and either side of the place is awesome. It's busy without being crowded. Great beer, of course; their Rojo is my favorite, which is surprising since I usually lean toward porters. Their porters are great too, by the way. The food menu has a great selection and I get something different every time we're there. Never a complaint, always as promised, and the food comes to the table quickly without feeling rushed. Folks working around, whether servers or behind the bar, are always friendly. We stopped by during the Presidio event and the folks working that event were very friendly and keeping up with the crowd really well. This is definitely one of my favorite places in Tucson and highly recommended for visitors and the natives. You won't be disappointed at all. read more

I'll be honest--the food is just mid bar food. The beers are really good in my opinion. But what keeps me coming back is that the staff is really, really friendly. It's not the kind of place to go to have a fine meal experience, but I always appreciate the kindness of the waitstaff. There are lots of TVs if you're sports minded. It can get VERY crowded around peak times, but usually there's a seat at the bar or outside if you want to hang out. Recommended. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff and excellent, authentic industrial atmosphere. IPAs were on point. We will be back!

I'm a big fan of Barrio's Sonoran Chicken Tacos and you can't beat the price on Taco Tuesday. Two tacos for $6, and you can add a side of beans or various garnish (guacamole, sour cream, etc.) for $1 or $2. The tacos are good sized, delicious and an excellent price. The service is always great here and I love the atmosphere. read more

Barrio Brewing - Sonoran Chicken Tacos - Breweries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

They were crazy busy with the end of a UA basketball game, so bad luck for a group of 8. Servers were too busy to help and were just trying to keep up. No eye contact when trying to get help. I finally approached a couple (sitting at a huge table by themselves) to see if they were leaving soon, and we lucked out. The server managed to come around and was responsive, helpful, and friendly despite the turmoil around us. We all managed to get our food in a fairly timely manner, and enjoyed it overall. The game had ended and the hubbub died down a bit. The seasonal beer I hoped to try was out, but the others I picked were good enough. For food, I tried the Baja Fish Tacos, which came with charro beans and pico de gallo and slaw on top. They were delicious! I'm hoping to come back at a more reasonable time so we can chill more than we were able. read more

I was instructed to move tables because another party wanted more seats after I was told sit wherever you want. I understand for a larger party or space was a challenge, but we had a party of 6 and the party that I saw was 2 after being moved. I'm open to this if you have a table for me. At least twice I asked the server which table am I going. The answer basically was pound sand, I don't care where you go, but not at this table. The food is good, but not great. Happy Hour pricing is reasonable, but the beer is overpriced for what it is. I speculate they mash too hot or skimp on ingredients for cost savings. The beer is not good, but it's an icon in Tucson. I'm open to comments from people who know how they brew beer. This is not my 1st choice by any means for a place to drink or eat. read more

This is a strange spot... The restaurant/brewery looks like a cross between a southern bar and an old, basic diner. The vibes are definitely odd, but the beer makes up for it. They have a great overall selection of tasty beers at a decent price. The food, however, is hit or miss (mostly miss for me). I ordered the wings, which were decent, and the carne fries, which were an insult. Others ordered the panini and the burger--both were just okay (the burger was a bit basic). Despite the underwhelming food, we had fun and drank our fill with some great beer. Go for the beer, but I'd recommend eating elsewhere. read more

For a non drinker you might think why would I go to a brewery? Because they have great food that's why. One of my party is gluten intolerant and the server, Tyler, was super knowledgeable about their GF menu items and this was over the phone before we even got there. To make matters even better when we ordered he remembered us and went over the precautions they use when gluten is an issue. Inside it's a brewery with its industrial park look: Metal tables and exposed fixtures. I saw a couple kids there they looked to be having fun. It seems ok for all ages. read more

I got the Fire Starter and I'd give it a 4/5. It wasn't spicy but it had great taste. The bacon was especially delicious!
