McGuire’s Sports Bar & Grill - Fried zucchini appetizer

Had a 5 star experience, it would've been 10 if Mexico had won their World Cup match. Stopped in…read moreat McGuire's on the way back from Tahoe and it was the perfect break. Great atmosphere to watch a sports game, w/ TVs 360 degrees around the venue. Was greeted and seated immediately and the food came very quick after ordering. The staff were also incredibly friendly and on it. Like when I ordered a burger, our waitress noticed the ketchup container was near empty. So she immediately replaced it w/ a full container before the food arrived. It's the little things that make the big things matter :) I really enjoyed the NorCal Burger. A Cheesburger w/ good portions of avocado and bacon added. My friends also enjoyed their classic burger and the spicy BBQ burger. But I was able to steal some of my friend's onion rings and that was the real MVP.

Disappointing service at this sports bar. I stopped in for…read morea late lunch recently and unfortunately encountered several service issues that really impacted the experience. We waited about 5 minutes at the front door before anyone greeted us. The hostess eventually came out from the back and apologized for the delay as she seated us. The manager was visible behind the bar but seemed unaware of the flow in the restaurant. With the dining area half full, there was just one server on the floor. After being seated, we waited another 8 minutes without anyone stopping by to greet us or bring water. Other customers around us were also experiencing long waits for service and food. A small crowd started forming at the entrance with no additional staff coming up to help, while the manager continued helping at the bar. Look, sports bars don't need to be fancy, but basic competence matters. This place had zero urgency, zero accountability, and zero care for customers. The manager's total disconnection from what was happening in the restaurant was especially frustrating. It felt like the team was understaffed and stretched thin, and there wasn't much proactive attention given to guests. I'd suggest trying another spot if you're looking for a reliable experience.

I really enjoy coming here. Staff is friendly portions are sizable, restrooms are clean. I would…read morerecommend the cilantro bowl, the clam chowder, their burgers pretty decent. And they have a cauliflower dish that's pretty crazy. Their brews are pretty outstanding as well. If you're looking for Bud Light or Miller light or Coors light or any of those things you're not gonna find that here. It's a brewery.

We hosted our son and future daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner at Auburn Alehouse, and it was…read moreabsolutely phenomenal. We feel so blessed that this special evening took place there. Lisa Ford, the co-owner, went above and beyond in every possible way. She designed a menu within our budget, created a customized bar menu, and she and her amazing team decorated, cooked, served, and made the patio feel warm, beautiful, and welcoming. They truly handled everything with such care and excellence. We were able to play our own customized Spotify playlist on the back patio for a fun Yacht Rock Friday night feeling, and their IT/AV support, Randy, helped us play a personalized video of the couple on the patio TV throughout the evening. It made the night feel even more personal and special. The food was truly the chef's kiss, the beer by Brian Ford, co-owner and brewmaster, was incredible, and the service was outstanding. Trista and the wait staff were fun, attentive, and made our guests feel so well taken care of. One of the best parts of the evening was seeing our son and daughter-in-love so happy and surrounded by incredible family and friends who enjoyed honoring and celebrating them. Our guests could not stop talking about how wonderful the food, service, atmosphere, and overall experience were. Auburn Alehouse is family-owned, community-forward, and an incredible craft brewpub. It is a wonderful place for private events, date nights, gatherings, celebrations, or simply a great meal with great beer. If you are in Auburn, driving from Reno to the Bay Area, or heading up the mountain, stop here. They are also a fantastic choice for private events and can work with your budget. They even host private events at their Annex across the street. We are so grateful we chose Auburn Alehouse for such an important family celebration. Highly recommend! We will be back - over & over & over! Huge Mahalo Lisa & Brian!!
