Great place to grab a drink! Very friendly and very welcoming environment. I recommend trying some puzzles

Walked in on a Friday night for a quick bite to eat and some brews after our drive to Big Bear. It was quieter than we anticipated for being a Friday night. We didn't mind at all though, we were personally serenaded by Randy & Terry. They were so friendly and quite welcoming! They asked us for requests and they both sang every single one beautifully! We ordered a pulled pork sandwich, burger, a lime margarita and a blonde ale. The pulled pork was amazing in my book! Very flavorful and the buns were so soft and fluffy! My boyfriend got a burger and he said it was just ok. We LOVED the French fries and thought the chipotle aioli sauce was excellent. Overall a very friendly and vibey place to hang out!! read more

On a very cold night while vacationing in Big Bear we stopped in for dinner. It's ascetically a great spot, warm, life musician but small and not a great menu. Everything on the menu is fried and greasy, probably was all frozen at one point. A canned/bottled soft drink is $6. (Non alcoholic). Must order from a bar Code, 1 Burger with Fries 1 order of 3 chicken strips and fries 1 Lemonade 1 Coke Guy brings your food and never comes back, yet they add a mandatory gratuity added in of 9%! For what? Total about $60!!! Felt a bit ripped off, considering it felt like we ate fast food junk. No real service and if you want water, get it yourself too. Unfortunately will go somewhere else next time. We did have some great meals while in Big Bear, this wasn't one of them. read more

This place was close and within walking distance from our cabin. The ordering process was easy and straight forward online. We were able to order, come in and get our food with ease. The environment is definitely very bar like and cozy. Loud but inviting. There's inside and outdoor seating available and staff is very friendly. Food is definitely bar food but it works for an easy meal. The bbq sandwich was packed with meat and shareable. The burger was good and the kids meals of chicken tenders and grilled cheese were ok. The cheese wasn't as melted as they like on the grilled cheese but it is what it is. Fries were good but salty. Definitely heavy on the seasoning. They gave us a lot of sauce so it was definitely nice to have with the fries. Definitely will be back for the drinks next time. read more

We stopped in when they first opened for lunch and we're excited to check out someplace new. Small place, very cozy and rustic inside. Pretty limited food selection, unless you are ordering a burger, but the drinks are good and they have some very tasty beer selections! Our favorite part was the entertainment by Tom and Tom, great musicians, and a great couple of guys! We very much enjoyed our visit and we'll be back! read more

BIG BEAR MOUNTAIN BREWERY @ BIG BEAR Parking is available for only customers or will be towed! There is a couple spots available on the right side of the place. My friends and I came to Big Bear for the weekend and stumbled upon this spot. Live music, a selection of beers, and american food, we were excited to be here. This is a family owned business! There was live music and you were able to request a song from their list. The vibes were great, they also have an 18% gratuity required for everyone. The food was fantastic, it was a turkey sandwhich and it came out so buttery and crispy, with the BEST fries and two side sauces. My boyfriend is a huge blood orange fan so when he saw that it was a beer flavor he had to get it! We also got puzzles at the end of our meal and it was super fun to guess and play as if we were kids. I'd highly recommend stopping by here, I will be back! The service is incredible! read more

We ditched the snow tubing dream after seeing how long the line was. Instead, we wandered into this cozy little spot -- think of it as your friend's rustic wooden cabin, only with a menu and a bar tab. A small fire was going on in the fireplace, and a live musician gamely took requests while the crowd gleefully sang along. The vibe was laid-back with an eclectic selection of songs that brought a sense of childhood nostalgia. QR codes are on each table, so ordering was easy. THE FOOD. - Wicked BBQ Sandwich. The pulled pork was juicy, tender, and had the right balance of sweet and tangy BBQ sauce. Swiss cheese melted over the meat pile, while the brioche bun, airy with crisped edges, held it all together. Seasoned fries accompanied this meal for a flavorful kick. - Cubano Sandwich. The crunch of pressed bread gives way to layers of rich roasted pork, cured ham, melted swiss cheese, mustard, and pickles. It's bold yet balanced. THE DRINK. - West Coast IPA. Unapologetically hoppy with a dry finish. THE PARKING. We pulled into the back lot, where parking was both free and stress-free. THE VERDICT. Great food, solid beer, and enjoyable live music. If we're ever in town again, we'll be sure to drop by. read more

Loveeeee everything about BB Mountain Brewery! The service, the food, the live music, the kid friendly atmosphere!!! We had so much fun I forgot to take pictures of our food (shocker) but we had the Cesar salad, burger, chicken strips, chicken wings and pulled pork sandwich- all delicious and no crumbs left. We were given puzzles to challenge our brains while we enjoyed the fireplace and live music, everyone had a great time and we will definitely be back again! read more

Still one of my favorite bars. They often have live music during the weekend afternoons; today it was a guitarist - the Stagehands. Cute, cozy atmosphere with fireplace. They have burgers, fries, drinks, even fun drinks for the kids like milk and cookie flight and lemonade flight. Today, had great service from Hunter. Til next time! read more

Amazing spot in Big Bear. I've been coming to Big Bear Mountain Brewery for years and it never disappoints. The food is always quick, the drinks hit every time, and the whole place has this cozy home vibe that makes you want to stay longer than you planned. We came in for just a quick drink and bite, but the live performances had us vibing for way too long in the best way. All our jams, all night. Huge shoutout to Hunter, the bartender. He was seriously the best. Super friendly, rad energy, and made the experience even better. Wish I lived closer because I'd be here all the time. read more

Stopped in on our way out of town to this Big Bear Mountain Brewery. My guy wanted to try this place, which is small, hole in the wall, divey place that sells other brewery's beers. Smelled musty. Didn't try the food. My guy ordered the wheat beer. Me, just an ice tea. Wasn't feeling it. The atmosphere was blah! Service was ok, Stopped and now heading out!! read more

Been coming here for a long time and after today reminded myself to do a review. Service is always great! The owner is very friendly, personable and makes a point to speak with you. We've met him many times but today I went in with my daughter and he was entertaining her, giving her puzzles and making jokes the whole time while we were waiting for our food. We love that you can eat outside and people watch or inside with mountain feel and dim lighting. Inside is nice and they have local musicians play often. Food is good + good quality.

Stopped here before Oktoberfest. The hazy was so good! And we've tried many from other breweries! We also got the Cuban sandwich which was so yummy!! Lots of flavor. Trust me though on this one--make sure to get the fries with the spicy aioli dip...they're so good! Our server was so kind and thoughtful and split our sandwich for us because he had a feeling that's what we would want, and he was right:-) I could tell he really wanted us to feel well cared for and we did! Love this little gem, and will definitely return whenever we're in Big Bear! read more

Rather too squeaky clean. All the chairs are tall and uncomfortable. Great selection of brews and very friendly bartender! read more

This was a cozy brewery near our Air BnB in Big Bear. We stopped by for a drink. There was live music where you could request songs. The bartender was nice and informative. I ordered a cocktail flight: - strawberry margarita - blue raspberry punch - margarita - spiked fruit punch I didn't like the flight. The drinks were strong and I just didn't care for the flavors. The bartender did warn me it would be strong but I thought I would like the flavors. I should have ordered a beer. read more

The food, environment and service were great. So much cool decor! The kids loved it so much and had tons of fun with the puzzles. Very family friendly. The kids kept asking to go back! Chicken tenders, fries and burgers were really tasty! read more

What a pleasant surprise. At first it felt a bit hole in the wall and yet the food was great and the staff was super friendly. Such a welcoming environment. They brought out a bunch of games for us to play and really allowed us to relax and get the "small town" feel, unlike many of the other more touristy, rushed establishments in the village. Really happy we stumbled onto this place. read more

Popped in for the first time just to check out something new and was pleasantly surprised. We were greeted and entertained by the owners son Hunter who has become someone we absolutely adore . We didn't eat anything but enjoyed various beers on tap and learning about the history of the building and how the Snow family came to own it . The decor makes for great conversation and has a small town feel vibe for relaxing . Music was on point for us that day too . Looking forward to watching this place grow and possibly expand. read more

Food was good, the ipa was amazing, and the service was great. My wife and I kept saying how delicious the ipa was. and we all scarfed our burger down like nothing. Also the older gentlemen who I believe is the owner is hands down one of the coolest guys. Kept my son and I entertained with these fun puzzles. And you can just feel its genuine a family loved place. We will be back, and we recommend you to go and try and beat his puzzles and enjoy great food and drinks ! Thanks for the good memories. read more

Came for dinner and a beer and left more than satisfied! The turkey club is amazing and sooo tasteful! The widowmaker burger pared with the red ale was also out of this world. Will be coming back during our next visit to Big Bear! Also conveniently located! read more

This is one of our favorite breweries in Big Bear. The first time we visited during winter in February, we loved it. The beer was great and the chicken tenders are delicious. This summer we tried the Cubano sandwich and it was incredible! My partner and I loved it. The beer was okay. They didn't have the beer we wanted on tap and got a can, but didn't hit like it use to. The service was also not the best. The guy that evening was dismissive and kinda rude, but we still like this place read more

This place was our 2nd stop while in Big Bear checking out our camp site. We had a hazy and a honey blonde. Both were delicious. They are DOG friendly & that's a forever plus to any and all places. The man at the bar was friendly and the vibes were good. read more

Best cuban sandwich I've ever had! Go there and get it. Great atmosphere and staff. Good beer selection and live music. But the sandwich is amazing! read more

I ordered the Cubano and ended up with zero food left on my plate. It was that good. The dipping sauces for the fries were delicious too. The aioli, buffalo, and ranch were absolutely delicious. Definitely recommend the cubano for the meat, the pickles, everything. The service was exceptional and the owner was a pleasure to chat with as we waited. What a wonderfully quaint spot with excellent food. read more

Arrived Friday evening around 8pm and they had people performing inside. They do have a seating area so we ending up sitting outside. We got the strawberry margarita and it wasn't good at all, basically like a knock off version. My friends who got beer loved it. It was an automatic 18% gratuity for each order. read more

We stumbled upon this GEM on our way back to San Diego from a quick getaway weekend in Big Bear. The food is delish (get the French fries, you won't be disappointed!) The service from Rick, one of the owners, was 2nd to none! He kept our kiddos busy with brain teasing puzzles and games! The adults were mesmerized by the puzzles too! The place is filled with awesome decor of vintage instruments, sheriff and police badges, and all sorts of musical pieces and props! We had a fantastic time at Big Bear Mountain Brewery! Highly recommend! read more

Was completely impressed with the beer first of all. Had a flight with a Hazy, a West Coast, a Stout and a Red. The bartender also gave a short sample of the Barley Wine, which was the best I have ever had. The venue was classy and historic. The outside betrayed the atmosphere inside. Was better than expected. The service was very engaging. We were offered the chance to solve a bar puzzle to earn a sticker. Also got some local recommendations for tacos and other nightlife. Not to be missed! read more

A few friends and I came to the brewery for some drinks while celebrating a birthday and we had such a great time! We chatted with the owner at the bar sharing stories he let us try some of the beers on tap to find the ones we liked! He handed us some puzzles to do at the bar and we all took turns trying them. We will absolutely be coming back and taking all our friends here it's such a fun quaint bar with lots of vintage decor on the wall and patches from so many police departments fire department and more. Next time we're here we're bringing patches to add to the walls! read more

We never had a problem with this place until two weeks ago. I went up to the bar to order beer and the bartender told me to scan a URL code for service. I asked "Can't we just order some beer from you and then go sit outside like we usually do?" He pushed back and told me that it would be more efficient if I scanned their URL code, downloaded an app, and then ordered on my phone. Obviously we walked out. This is all designed to make their jobs easier, and I don't work there. Won't be back. read more
