    In the San Diego area and need a quick bite for yourself -- or planning a big, chill gathering? Best Pizza & Brew has you covered. Solo eaters will love their $8 hat or shirt deal, which includes a free slice of pizza. Yes, just $8 for a souvenir and your choice of pizza slice -- not only pepperoni or cheese, but several options. Coming with a group? They've got a spacious patio with heaters and a great interior for hanging out. As a meat lover, my top picks are the freshly baked large Meat Lover pizza, the cheesy meatballs, and the super crispy truffle fries. IG: socalhkfoodies

    Wow, pizza and salad was phenomenal. Today we decided to go half barbecue chicken half meat lovers with the House salad and subbed blue cheese for goat cheese and it was absolutely phenomenal! Best pizza and brew always has the best crust. Best toppings, fresh salad, and the most laid-back chill vibe. The workers are always so nice and the food is always cooked perfectly. Beers are amazing also with a wide selection on tap. Love that they offer merch to go with hats and shirts, and the place is always spotless when I come in, so clean! Love that they sell by slice also. I was just blown away at how perfect our order was last night. thank you so much! This is why it's our favorite pizza spot!! The name stays true it is the BEST!!!!

    This seems to be our go-to spot for pizza by the slice. They offer a great selection of beer and a few good vegetarian pizza choices. This time we split a 2 slice pizza deal and each ordered a beer. I love their pesto and sundried tomato pizza with pine nuts on top. We brought my mom and her husband here. They loved the pepperoni pizza. We enjoyed hanging out with the open window atmosphere along PCH. Service is fine. You pick up the beer at the counter yourself so listen to your number.

    Calamari was good....the beer was good....a Japanese beer

    The pizza here is great! I had the meatball Parmesan and burrata sausage and hot honey. I'm not sure which I loved more! They were both great. Service here is always really good. I had an order of calamari and a Japanese beer. Plenty of seats inside. Parking lot was full but I found parking on the street no problem.

    Pasta/marinara with meatballs!

    Time for another review update! This place keeps moving up higher and higher on my list for top local pizza spots! The name is super fitting; Best Pizza and Brew! I am now using them to cater meetings at work and the staff love the pizza and salads! They no longer have the Mac and cheese I used to love but I'm hooked on the garlic knots! Best Pizza and Brew always has amazing happy hours specials including $2 slices and great beer specials! They continually support the community with events sharing proceeds of sales from that day with the beneficiary! So glad to see business is thriving and hope to see them still here years from now!

    The name of this place nails how the food here tastes. It was our last night in town and honestly I didn't feel like cooking so we decided to give the pizza here a try and I'm so glad we did. Not only does this place cater to your four legged friends but they have some of the best pizza in the planet. The sauce alone takes on a zesty flavor of it's own. It's a little spicy but at the same time not overly spicy toppings ratio was perfect and nicely cooked in a wood oven. The best way to describe the house salad was very similar to a Waldorf salad. Leafy greens. Julianne slices of apple, blue cheese, raisins and hopefully not peacans because I'm highly allergic but we did pick out the nuts since we weren't sure what nut we were dealing with. Our server was really nice and we sat outside since we had our two dogs with us. They do have a menu for dog meals for your dog to eat and tons of iced cold beers on draft to drink. This place is definitely with more than just a 5 star review it deserves a perfect 10 and I honestly don't ever find myself saying that about any of the businesses that I review but I can about this place. Honestly if I still lived in Southern California this would be my go to pizza place it would definitely be worth the 2 hour drive from L.A. so everyone you have to get down to Oceanside to try this place is promise you won't be sorry. It's also good for groups and catering I would just call ahead.

    If you're looking for solid pizza, cold drinks, and a chill spot to hang in Oceanside, Best Pizza & Brew is the place. The pizza is fresh, crust is crispy, and the center is chewy. I enjoy their Pesto and The Works pizza. The Buffalo Chicken wasn't for me, as I've never been a fan of buffalo sauce. They've got a legit tap list with a good mix of craft beers, and their happy hour deals are pretty good, $4 pints and $2.50 slices. Margaritas are $6 (I believe) during happy hour. The vibe is laid back and beachy, with indoor/outdoor seating, plenty of TVs, and friendly staff. Great for grabbing a quick slice, meeting friends, or just kicking back with a drink on the patio. It's a go to local spot.

    Food was tasty. We ordered the meat lovers pizza. Note, the crust is thin. If you want a thick, dough pizza, go somewhere else. A large pizza for 4 people with 3 drinks was $80. Kind of pricey, but you are paying for the location. Ambiance is family friendly with big beautiful open windows across from the beach. Service was friendly and efficient. They had a great special, 1 slice of pizza with a shirt for $8!

    Chocolate Chip Cookie
    Alicia J.

    Yes their pizza and beer is stellar, but this review is a special shout out to their desserts. The chocolate chip cookie and brownie are so good. Sometimes we will have dinner at another spot in South O but then go to Best Pizza for the cookies! They sometimes sell out FYI. Take one to go, or sit outside on the patio (they have heaters and its comfortable out there!) with one and add some ice cream. The service/staff at this location are consistently good which makes this an easy go to when you're in Oceanside.

    Spreading word per request. Excited for calamari on my next visit. Tallow for the win

    Great spot for affordable eats. Pizza is good (not gourmet). Salads are good, love the house salad (tend to overdress so ask for dressing on side if that's not your vibe). Calamari has almost always been cooked perfectly here, looking forward to trying it again now that they are using beef tallow to fry! Friendly staff

    We were spending the day with my daughter and boyfriend down in Oceanside and they took us to the Best Pizza and Brew in Oceanside. We all ordered a slice of pizza and a beer. Their pizza reminds me of New York Style pizza. Thin crispy crust and high quality cheese. Lots of beer choices too. Definitely a nice neighborhood pizzeria and brew house. I just wish they were in South Orange County.

    Great pizza with amazing friendly staff. Indoor and outdoor seating which is great super spacious. Loved the crispy thin crust on the pizza. We really enjoyed the pizza had a great time.

    We tend to "dine in" at this location. At least once a month or so. It usually gets pretty busy. It's an open floor concept here. They've a side patio and picnic tables/benches that are away from the building for alternative seating areas. So you've got lots of options. We like the sausage with hot honey pizza. To drink I'll get something like the sexy pineapple. They've got good pours here. On occasion we get the order to go but it's always nice to sit and have it right after it's been freshly made. I appreciate their house salad from time to time. We've been to the Esco and Vista location as well. Pizza & Service is the BEST :-) We especially enjoy coming here more~so when we hang with some friends of ours or even when we get introduced to new friends. A wonderful locals hot spot. Come one or come all. Get a slice of pizza pie!

    the house salad! a favorite

    On two occasions I came here and had two different kinds of experiences. Both were Dam good times…read more. The first time was after roller skating nearby and I was one HUNGRY beaver! So my friend Nanci and I turned to Yelp for help. She had been to this location before and I frequent the Vista tavern and grill (mainly when Jimmy Paton is playing) with my family. Knowing that this one wasn't a restaurant we looked up on their calendar and excitedly saw that the Oishi sushi fusion pop up would be here. I've had them elsewhere several times and am a fan of them! AND we also saw that they have live music on Friday nights too! Oh yeah! This day the music was by Kimmi Bitter duo with Willis Farnsworth. I love the 60/70's vibe that they've got going on! Definitely a fun FriYay night out with our favorite of things ie Grub, drink AND what felt like a VIP live music show! I loved the open floor plan especially because after that fun workout prior I was able to cool down with the fresh air. Cuz I was one sweaty Betty, Ha! We noticed that they have BINGO on Thursdays and so the pre-planning of my 50th birthday spinning wheels in my head began! How perfect that my actual birthday fell on the same day as a bingo night. Spinning Meats Mediterranean pop up would be there. Rain or Shine. You see it's usually very hard to plan an actual birthday event for my birthday because it's so close to the hustle bustle of the Holidays. It also likes to be a rainy day. We lucked out here! I called and spoke to Ashley (forgive if I got the name wrong but that's what this old brain remembers). about making reservations and she informed me that it really is a free-for-all/first come basis as far as the table seating goes. But she did reserve one high communal table for me, RSVP for a half an hour prior to the first BINGO game. That worked out perfectly as my event was more casual and my friends would be trickling in and out during the evening. Several of my guests that attended my event are fellow YELPers too and we are always recommending our favorite places with one another. The entire venue felt like it was my own as we befriended strangers and shared other tables, luv and laughs all around & even shared my cake with them too. I was having surgery just days after this event so I only had one seltzer drink and it was good. I love that it didn't have fake dye coloring in it. My friends loved the place, their brews, and I loved their presence! Thank you BBB~O'side crew. You were amazing! Tho a bit bummed that no one out of my group won a bingo game but one guy won twice!?! How!?! Scratches head. We had a great time and truly am looking forward to my/our next experience here!

    We had a great experience at this Oceanside location and enjoyed the Thursday night bingo and food…read morefrom Spinning Meats. The staff was gracious in reserving a big table so we can our friends join us in celebrating my wife's birthday. Service has been stellar so far during our visits here. We're are sure to come back for bingo nights and will try some of the other events as well.

    Hanger 76 is a surprisingly great find here in Oceanside. I always pass by while driving up and…read moredown the 76, and I never expected a spot like this to be tucked away here. I definitely love the warehouse vibe, clean open space, awesome craft beer selection, and the wine options they have. The patio area is a great place to hang out and has a very family-friendly feel. They also serve food on site, including hot pizza prepared in an outdoor pizza oven. I came here today to support my friend who was playing in a live reggae band, and the whole setting made it even better. Service was spot on and professional. The bathrooms were clean, and believe it or not, parking was a little hard, but it was okay I was able to find a spot around the corner. The place is tucked away in an industrial area right across from the airport, which actually gives it a really cool vibe. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    Bring back the food trucks!!!…read more Beer is phenomenal and they rotate regularly. Wine options are great for every type of wine connoisseur. And they even have a decent selection of NA beers now. Brewery staff are super cool and nice. Winery gal is, well she's nice enough on her best days. They just redid the back patio and it's spacious with plenty of seating, both in and out. My only gripe is that dang pizza place. Idk what the heck is going on but the quality is just downright bad. And I mean all of it. Walked up to the counter last time around and the guy didn't even look up at me. The garlic knots have come out raw on multiple occasions, pizza is burnt black, not a little bit O' tasty char, like crisped to carbon black. And the salad is ok. But it's a $20 basic salad. On that point, food price is just way too high for the portion size. You're not even allowed to bring your own food in anymore. Bring back the food trucks!!! Pizza place gotta go guys. Eat before you go. But it is a fantastic brewery and the wine is on point.
