WE checked out this venue as a replacement for the recently closed Device Brewing. Not much changed inside as it looks very similar to the old Device concept. Nice beer selection and they have a HH similar to the old Device menu. Unfortunately, the food did not deliver as much as the beer. It appeared that the items we had were basically commercial Costco type items and just reheated in the back. Hopefully the items will deliver on a higher level when we return. Service was friendly and efficient and seemed to be very attentive.

Met and exceeded my expectations - had read the Yelp reviews and the burger kudos had me salivating. Yum! Fresh meat patty cooked to perfection, juicy tomato slices, crisp shredded iceberg lettuce, a square of cheese, and "Block Sauce" which is a house concoction that seems to be mayo-based. It has the tiniest hint of heat, just a tingle on the palate. Served on the most delicious bun I've had in a long time. Also comes with onion and pickle if desired. I opted for shoestring fries which are my absolute favorite accompaniment for a burger. Other Yelpers have raved about their house tots. 10/10 would order that burger and fries on the regular. Love that the soda is self-serve. Likely will try more menu choices once I get my burger fix. Particularly if that turkey sandwich uses fresh sliced meat from a real turkey. Not a drinker, so no comment on what looks like a dazzling array of beers. I'm still new in town, so didn't understand the words "same games as prior establishment in the same spot." Soon as I entered I could tell it's a multi-function space - perfect for families with active kids. The vibe was total joy. The food was beyond even what the Yelp reviews had set me up for. Plenty of easy parking. Bring the gang. Fair mix of hightop tables and standard height. Accessible. Only photo is of one section of the interior. I DOVE into that burger and fries.

I finally got around to checking out Block, newly opened in place of Device Brewing that closed down a while ago. Inside is pretty much the same, with perhaps a few more games than before? It's always been a great space for meeting up and hanging out indoors or outside, and to attend weekly trivia/game events. I was very curious to see how Block would compare to Device in terms of food quality, and I was pleasantly surprised! The food doesn't look like much, and might even seem unappealing in some respects due to very lightly colored buns for the burgers, but I have to say it's absolutely a step up from Device in terms of flavor and quality. The tots, which are shaped like little Tetris "blocks" are some of the best i've had. I was literally caught off guard with how good they were. The fries are my favorite shoestring variety, and the burgers were cooked well and flavorful. There was a hint of lemon in the sauce that I really enjoyed. The group I was with all enjoyed a big variety of drinks, from various ales and IPAs, to a tasty guava cider, to... wait for it... a Baja Blast seltzer?! It looked just as you are imagining it right now. It was weird, but I like breweries that try silly and interesting flavor combos, and it's good to see Block isn't afraid of that. I should also mention that the staff were all very friendly and attentive, especially so for a place like this that doesn't have dedicated servers tending tables.

Went for an event on a Friday evening around 6:30p. Parking was fine, some variety on tap, and decent bar food menu. Prices were standard, about $8-9 for a pint, food items were California prices. Plenty of seating, nice outdoor patio, chill staff. Food Items: Veggie burger: 4.2/5 - the tots were pretty good. Nice salt kick to balance the brew. Burger was fresh, tasty. They did run out of the 'specials' (buffalo chicken sandwich), but a side of buffalo sauce helped me scratch that itch. Regular burger (block burger?) - Friend enjoyed it. Didn't give a rating. It was good, decent, normal. Overall, if you are in the area, check them out. I am not really a fan of loud children running around and screaming at a bar, but that doesn't impact the rating. They do have some cards/games to use. Place was clean.

Stopped by to check out this place on a Wednesday evening. They have HH Mon-Fri 3p-6p. It wasn't super busy. I ordered the Lake Tahoe Aleworx Double IPA IPA - Imperial / Double * 8.5% ABV. It was good. I would get a pitcher if this next time. Staff were friendly. Plenty of seating inside & outside. It's exactly the same as when Device was around. There's a kids play area. Great place for families with kiddos.

Dropped in to take care of Happy Hour and watch some soccer with the Mrs. Place was packed ,quite busy with array of familys watching soccer, and they were understaffed for the first 40 minutes we were there, but the few staff on duty handled everything in excellent and timely fashion until additional workers came. They do have a QR ordering option so food and drink is brought to you and you can keep count of your running tab before closing it out I had the East Brothers Red IPA, the sliders and the Buffalo Cauliflower Bites and my wife got xhicken tenders. Beer- cold, and very tasty ! Sliders were decent, as were the chicken tenders but the cauliflower was excellent . Happy hour prices were great, and despite the large crowd and short staff, all the crew was most excellent and great spirits in handling the serving The place can get a little noisy with a larger crowd, but plenty of seating both inside and outside and still isolated enough that you can have conversation with your table. Great place for friends and or family gathering

Been waiting to check this place out since Device shutdown. Very limited food menu but good beer selection. Service was slow on a Friday night to be expected but kinda lack luster tbh. We asked for a soft drink and were directed toward the soda machine but no ice. We waited 7-10 min in between beverages to be asked if we want another round and tbh didn't feel welcomed. The owner was there and kinda was just taking care of "certain things" idk seemed like he was helping select groups. Not impressed.

Visiting from Dublin. Getting nails done with Mom for her Birthday. Next door saw this spot and decided to check it out. Bought a glass for $6 and was told they've been here 2months. Nice environment and decent service. Good Luck with the business I'll return

HH pickle bombs. NOT WORTH THE $8!!!!! 6/23/26
Darren C.

I had high hopes when I heard of the opening after Device shutdown. Saw a video saying the food menu would be limited so they could focus on consistency and quality food. I have to say I was not impressed at all. My turkey club was mostly bread and could have used more flavor. Tots were crunchy, so I'll give them that. Most disappointing was paying $8 for their so called HH priced pickle bombs that only had 6 pieces with the pickles being paper thin and almost hard to find with all the cream cheese and batter. I also tried a piece of their lemon pepper wings and was not a fan. Good fry on the chicken, but flavored salt just wasn't for me. I really wanted to be a supporter since it's the local taproom and nice for the area, but after having the food and just average beer...I can't say I really have any reason to visit again. I hope the other locals can keep them afloat. Service workers were great and made sure we were cared for. Very polite and accommodating. Ambiance of the place is just like a good taproom/pub with enough screens to keep all the sports games on and kept clean and tidy. This night, they were doing musical trivia which people seemed to be enjoying. 6/23/26

Turkey Club - Toasted sourdough, oven roasted turkey, pesto aioli, bacon, lettuce, tomato.

So happy that Block Craft Beer & Kitchen opened in our Pocket/Greenhaven neighborhood! We had a Pocket/Greenhaven Women's Pickleball Luncheon (30 people attended) and everyone was impressed with their food and beer! The service and management we're so accommodating, quick, and nice. The restaurant was spacious and clean. Great place to host group events. They even had games like dominoes for you to play! We all liked Block so much that we are having an NBA Finals Game 5 Watch Party there today! Looking forward to more gatherings there.

Third time at Block and it is now a favorite! Attended to watch the Knicks beat the Spurs, to play mahjong and again today for lunch. Tim and the crew graciously opened early to accommodate 45-50 pickleball friends for lunch. Food was amazing as usual. We had the French dip and club sandwich and of course the Tetris tots. And of course had to partake in the delicious selection of beers. Today i tried the hard seltzer too. Yum! Great place and will definitely be back!

Arthur R.

Came here on Pride month with Tyler Long and Nick Gibbs who love this place. Hands down best place to have a bite to eat and a nice cold beer. Whether your hear to celebrate LGBTQ+ or just want a place to call home, Blocks is the place to hang out! Coldest beer in town!

The atmosphere created by the music and decorations was so warm and comfortable to make you feel as though you were celebrating some special occasion. The service of this place was simply great and very friendly. I got the blackened salmon along with the Caesar salad as my meal. The fishy taste in the salad could have been attributed to the anchovies. Nevertheless, the salad was fresh and tasty. My salmon was served on a bed of pinto beans along with the asparagus as the side dish. It was very tasty and delicious. Everything in this restaurant was very clean including the dining hall and the bathroom. The menu of this restaurant is relatively expensive. This might not make me go here very often.

She likes a little spice so she had jalapeños added, which turned out to be a great complement to the drink. For lunch we had the prime rib hash and the shakshuka. My wife really enjoys shakshuka, but finds it relatively hard to find. She said the dish was "awesome". This was my first "hash". Though I enjoyed it, my one critique was too many pieces of fat. I appreciate cooking any steak with the fat as It definitely adds flavor, but no one wants to bite into pieces of just fat. My recommendation...cook it with the fat, but trim the fat before you dice it to add to the hash. Service was exceptional. We were greeted by Phillip, who was very personable, and he brought us water and drinks. Our server was Felicia. She was very friendly, upbeat, cheery, and made us feel very welcome. The bartender brought out the second cocktail and he was very friendly. He makes a superb cocktail. The staff did a wonderful job! We plan to return to try some of their other dishes.

It was probably a bit too excessive, but I thought it was a better deal than the fried chicken entree ($26 pp). We were able to take home leftovers to enjoy it for another meal. The chicken was crispy and moist overall. There was coffee bbq sauce that you could slather onto the meat. The meal also came with sides. I'm a fan of the cheesy Mac and cheese. The jalapeño coleslaw was tangy. The cornbread was moist and sweet and came with honey on the side. I'm glad I checked this off my (bucket) list! It's a good idea to make reservations.

Not sure how else we would have gotten chicken with our dinner reservation on Monday. We asked him to bring us some spoons please and I would serve my friends. He never did , I had to get up and go to the server and ask. Why was it so difficult to put our chicken on the table. We told them that prior. He was rude, loud and made a scene. look on your cameras around 7:20 on September 28. We were sitting on the patio. He was not nice.

I come here a lot for a off menu cheeseburger, and it's solid (4/5) The focaccia was superb. Had that balance of crispness with being fluffy and light. Comes with a balsamic and olive oil dressing but that is superfluous IMO. The oysters were fine. I wish they sourced from around here vs BC. You get some nice oils to add to them on the side. The peppers were such a delightful and tasty snack especially with the Caesar. The seasonal greens were a great accompaniment to the whole chicken. The chicken had this awesome curry flavor to it. I believe it was Malaysian based. It was perfectly moist with a well seasoned and crispy-ish crust. Not pictured, but we also had the pole beans which were seasoned in a tamarind sauce and with Chinese sausage which I think added to the flavor profile of the chicken. Definitely $$$$ with cocktails but it's a great move with the chase sapphire benefit (IYKYK)

The area where the bottle shop was is now a large seating area with comfy plush chairs on one side, booths on the other and tables in the middle. A friend wanted to come here since they had all day happy hour on Tuesdays. Was pleasantly surprised by the Oregon pinot noir on the HH menu at $10. Also enjoyed the charcuterie board that was $12 on happy hour. Grapes could have been fresher and perhaps more than one type of cheese would have been nice, but it was still substantial. Service was on point and attentive. The waitress even demonstrated the "chambong" that they have for $5 on happy hour. If you ever did beer bongs in your college years, you can now do champagne and rose ones while you are adulting. I wasn't in the mood for chugging champagne, I prefer to sip my alcohol these days. They also have $3 oysters on the menu for happy hour. I'll have to try those out the next time I come back.

And the food certainly didn't hurt. The Point Reyes blue cheese on the heirloom tomato & cucumber salad was salty, pungent perfection. The California cheese board with Mt. Tam was so good, the house potato chips were honestly epic, and the scallop crudo had the perfect little kick from the pickled peppers with so many good textures. My server Audrey was absolutely lovely, too -- and surprised me with a carrot cake cookie to end the night, which was such a sweet little gesture. Good food. A Sacramento evening. No agenda. Just a little time with myself. Take yourself on the date. Order the cheese board. Sit at the table alone. Enjoy your own company. Whether you're single or happily partnered, you're pretty good company, after all.
