Fun spot in Oceanside with a great vibe and lots of weekday specials. I had the miso chicken wings .. tasty but light on sauce. They do charge for extra, which I get, but I wished for a little more to start. Their homemade ranch made up for it though! The happy hour pretzel ($10) was perfect for sharing, and my friend's grilled fish tacos were fresh and light. The coconut shrimp looked amazing, so I'll try that next time. Can't wait to come back for the $20 lobster roll weekends ..and once I'm not pregnant, to sample that awesome beer list! read more

This place is awesome! Ryan was absolutely phenomenal and helped us find the NA beer options. Ryan said usually they only have 4 but recently they've been carrying 6 options. We tried 4 today and absolutely loved them. If you're looking to go out with friends but don't drink alcohol, this place has got you covered with great NA options! The ambiance is so nice. It's very comfortable inside and currently they have cute Halloween window paintings! Ryan also did a great job suggesting the best options for us too! Beyond the great options here we also received such great service. Thank you so much, Ryan! If we lived in Oceanside this would definitely be our go to spot. Hopefully we can visit again soon! read more

Get yourself to Beertown! At 5 pm on a Tuesday, the place was nearly empty. Our friendly bartender helped us through the choices. We took advantage of both Taco Tuesday and Happy Hour to enjoy some local brews and six tacos, for literally $32. Starting with a Beertown Mexican Lager ($2 off) and a Local Roots Watermelon Splash Kombucha (also $2 off), we waited a bit to order food. I like that he let me taste both kombucha flavors before deciding. The watermelon is not too sour but not too sweet, very refreshing with a little kick. So the Taco Tuesday deal is $2.50 tacos, choosing from Shrimp, Steak, Mahi, Veggie or Chicken. These are full sized tacos, dressed up fancy with radish and microgreens. The sauces are good, and they have toppings like pickled onions and corn. Some varieties are served on flour tortillas, some on corn. The corn tortillas are not homemade but they held up well during taco consumption, so they had been properly cooked for sturdiness. I had three Blackened Mahi tacos on corn tortillas by request. Husband had one shrimp, one steak and one mahi. He didn't want the third taco but I wanted to taste the steak. It came home and was still dandy the next day. Our bartender was jovial, and the bar began to fill up closer to six when we were leaving. We tipped generously because, after all, it isn't his fault everything was discounted!! Sadly, we fully intended to come back another day to try the fantastic deal on smash burgers before five pm, $5. The lady next to me ordered the OG smash with bacon jam and it looked fantastic. But our vacation got away from us and it will have to wait for our next OSide visit. Until next time, Beertown! read more

Don't let the generic name throw you off. This spot is legit with the assortment of beer on tap and friendly service! They also serve up burgers, sandwiches and the like. Love the outdoor space! Was staying in the area and I could see this spot out of the window from the Vrbo that I rented. I got a hamburger and a local IPA. Great casual spot to have a beer. Lots of seating for a larger group as well! read more

They always have a huge selection of beers on draft. Taco Tuesday and Wing Wednesday. I tried two new tacos they have and they were both very good, shrimp and steak. Service is always great. read more

The new place in town for wings! Man do I love the vibe here, great beers and great food! The sweet Thai wings are my favorite, and their pretzel is the hidden gem. Served with pub, cheese and mustard., try it read more

They changed their Chef and it shows. Not only did they get rid of most of the items on their menu that were really good, it seems like the quality of food has been cut in half. The shrimp tacos were soggy, lacked flavor, and the limes they provided were laughable. They were 1/4" inch thick slices of dry nothingness. The cabbage tasted old. We also had a Beertown smash burger, which honestly wasn't too bad, but the so called crispy onions were severely lacking in ammount and flavor (see photo). They were soggy and tasted old. The last thing that was disappointing was the beer I got was barely cold. The Margarita was honestly the only thing we enjoyed. The staff was fairly nice although no one welcomed us, and the bartender was busy talking for about 5 minutes. We waited for another bartender to come let us know to seat ourselves. read more

BEERTOWN - Beertown Smash Burger - Gastropubs Near Me - Oceanside, California

Beertown is one of the best kept gems in Oceanside & can be found right as we enter the downtown area. One of my favorite places to dine out is Beertown. Beertown is located on N Coast Hwy in Oceanside California & it's an underrated family-friendly spot. There's a lot to love here at Beertown. They have a private parking lot & there's also street parking surrounding it. Because it is located BEFORE the downtown area, you won't have to deal with too much traffic; which is often known as a nuisance. Their establishment is very spacious, allowing for seating inside or on an outside patio. With their wraparound windows, customers get a full view of all happenings outside (people-watching is a famous Oceanside pastime). They also have bar seating for those of us who want to minimize our time between drinks Because they have minimal televisions, I would not consider this a "sports bar". Beertown is more of a family-friendly watering-hole that has some excellent pricing deals. I especially love their smashburgers, which are available Every Day. It has a pickled pepperochini relish & bacon jam that is simply decadent! You get a hint of sweet, heat & savory in every bite. On Tuesdays it's all about their tacos for $2.50! Their blackened mahi fish taco sells out fast. Their pork belly is another favorite and they even have a vegetarian option with artichoke & mushroom; and all of them are flavorful. Wednesdays are all about their $.75 chicken wings and they have a great selection available. I recommend mango-habanero, hot honey (get extra sauce) and 7 Siblings Buffalo. I love how Beertown supports other local businesses such as ARTIFEX, Shoots, Northern Pine & 7 Siblings. I really love this place and can't recommend it enough and hope that everyone gets to experience all that they have to offer in Oceanside. read more

Excellent place to grab some beers and food. I don't get to try the food but it looked good. I was limited on time so I tried a few beers and took some to go. My server was great and offered to let me try any beer before I got a full pour. The flight is a good option to try several of the taps. I will definitely return when I visit the area again. read more

We stopped in last minute after a day at the beach and were so happy we did! The casual atmosphere paired with quick and friendly service, delicious beers, and yummy food were everything we were looking forward to finding here. And bonus, juices and games to entertain the kiddos! We ordered: multiple beers - all so good, my favorite was definitely the West Coast IPA, Neon Lagoon - so YUM! The coconut shrimp: super crunchy and perfect dunked in the coconut sauce. Giant Pretzel - it's a classic go-to with my kiddo and us adults always enjoy it too. And you can't go wrong with a stone ground mustard and beer cheese. Thai Chili Wings - all the yesss! Crispy, but still moist on the inside. The sauce flavor wasn't really spicy, but had such great flavor! Steak Frites - one of my favorites to order, as long as it's done correct, and this absolutely was! The parm fries with the truffle aioli made it everything I wanted it to be. We'll definitely be back again! read more

Beertown recently sponsored the Surfer Girl Pro in Oceanside and seeing the advertisements reminded that I have only been a few times back when it opened and should probably head back in and give it another try! So glad I did! Happened to go on wing Wednesday. They had some delicious smoked wings that paired awesome with my IPA! They have tons of beers on tap and almost any kind you can think of! The bartender/manager Mary is super cool. She knows which beers to recommend and how to pair them with the food. She is super friendly and personable! The one thing I always rate when deciding if I'll come back somewhere is the bathroom and their bathroom was 5/5! lol The spot is good vibes and good people. They play great music and all the customers are pretty cool! They are located on Coast Highway a little bit before you get into downtown, so it's not so crazy but still a downtown feel! read more

The place is also really cute, open space and a nice patio area. I would highly recommend checking this place out! read more

We were so excited to check this place out due to the high reviews. They have a great selection of beers. Unfortunately, we never received our food order. We arrived and seated ourselves on the patio per the "seat yourself" sign. A server let us know he would be with us shortly. He came back with water and took our food order. After 40 minutes of waiting for our food, he let us know that the kitchen was backed up and they ran out of fish - which was in both of the menu items that we chose. We both chose something different from the menu. We waited for another 30 minutes with no update on our food. We found our server and asked him for an update. He mentioned it would be a few more minutes even though we had already waited over an hour for our food to come out. By this point, we were already hungry and decided to pay for our drink order and go somewhere else to eat. He apologized for the wait and mentioned that they were understaffed. This place was definitely understaffed, so I don't blame the employee. He was one person who was serving and bussing the tables. There were several tables around us that never got bussed. We left disappointed and will not be returning. read more

Portion sizes have gotten way smaller, not worth the price. Ambience nice except for the dead trees on the patio. read more

Excellent selection of beers and food. Service was good and very friendly. Great experience.

Visited while staying near by! The wings were delicious The waitress was kind and accommodating. Cool fun atmosphere!

Today was a one man show but service was great for cover both the bar and patio pre-rush hour. Patio is warm and inviting as is the bar and bar room. If you're here during Happy Hour... I must say you can't go wrong with Signature Smash Burger and or their Coconut Shrimp. Even the Macaroni Balls were satisfying. Match the good eats w other a Hazy and everything was good. read more

BEERTOWN - Cubano + fish n chips (IG: @dawntc) - Gastropubs Near Me - Oceanside, California

Been here twice in the past couple months after knowing about it for years. The food absolutely impressed each time. The smash burger deal is unbeatable. I'm an inNOut fan and this is better for $5. The chef is crushing quality food and great prices. It's always a bit quiet here and I just want an awesome local business to stay. Come give it a try. My wife likened the coconut shrimp on par with Chart House. Definitely homemade. Everything we've had we would recommend and have again. read more

Chill new spot on Coast highway, a close walk from the downtown area. They have a sizable patio area with garage door openings that make half of the indoor seating nice and airy. I usually don't like sitting right in front of live performers, but Matt McCoy was performing that afternoon and made sure the volume wasn't slapping us. He played a series of covers very well, definitely worth checking out! Service was great, despite being a bit disjointed. We couldn't find our server when we needed him, but others were always around to help us. Nothing bad on our sever though, he was super friendly. Beer was pretty decent. They have rotating taps from craft breweries that you wouldn't normally come across. Food was not good. Our pretzel nuggets were stale and tasted like someone microwaved them from frozen. Fried green beans also tasted like they were fried from frozen. We decided on lunch elsewhere based on the poor quality of the apps. read more

Looking for dinner while on a business trip, was looking to see what looked good on local menus via Yelp. Beertown had two Things that caught me eye. A Cubano sandwich, growing up in Florida they had big shoes to fill. Second was a bourbon bread pudding. The sandwich was amazing the portion could feed 3 people. It was flavor rich and authentic. It was a great price! I washed it down with a local beer one of maybe 50 on tap. The only bad part was even only eating half the sandwich I had no room for bread pudding read more

Fantastic place if you're a beer lover! If the charcuterie board is in the menu-GET IT! Delicious variety for a fantastic price!

Went to beer town four months back and had an outstanding burger, and the beer was good. Went back last week placed my order asked for my burger to be well done. The lady behind the counter told me their Smashburger said come well done. When I got my burger, it was raw in the middle not well done did not taste like it did before the first time no consistency in their cooking. read more

service was amazing, people at the bar really knew their beer, the prices are extremely fair, food is good, but honestly the service was enough to make me want to come back! highly recommend! read more

4 stars for gal overseeing the bar area. Knowledge of beers & wine. Plus samples of both. Menu changed not recent online menu. Smash burger tasty, sloppily presented burger 1/4 off bun, shredded lettuce on tray, very dry thin strip of onion. Cuban sandwich both of us left most of it. Don't know what was on it meat tasteless overall very sweet, parts of the roll burnt. On cool/cold days bring jacket cold inside. If menu changes will try again. read more

We were warmly greeted and told we could sit anywhere on our way into this little gem. Water was served quickly and our order was taken very quickly. They have indoor and outdoor seating options, so it's nice to have choices. The beer list is great as it has some interesting options. They had cider too. Their food was quite tasty as well. We got a breakfast panini and their special; chicken gumbo. Both were good and very tasty. It did take a little time to get our food out to us, but it was delicious. For a cool place to grab a beer and some food, give them a try. read more

Beer was good. Had the house beer and delish. Food was also very good. My son is hard to please with how he likes his wings and he gave them a 10/10! Can't wait to go back. Nice ambiance as well. Very chill spot with friendly servers. Thanks Beertown! read more

Welllllll- I came here but didn't have any beer. We came for some late night dinner. Pretzel bites, black bean burger, and fish and chips. Fries for both were good- shoestring but served cold! :( Fish was a little soggy Pretzel bites were good but the effort on the meals is so....low effort? You can tell they scooped the mustard out of a large jar. Cheese served in a plastic cup. A little more love would go a long way here. read more

Blaine was absolutely wonderful!!!! So helpful and friendly and he made this a highlight of our visit to Oceanside. Beer was super good (and that's coming from someone who isn't a huge beer fan) but the service was some of the best I've ever had at a brewery! Thanks and we will be visiting again before we leave your lovely town! read more
