This place is in a great location. Steps from the beach and local boutiques. Parking is hit or miss so be prepared. There is a small lot in the back and street parking within the neighborhoods. It was relatively busy when we arrived. They have a bar area and plenty of tables for seating. We were seated promptly. They were out of a majority of the beers we were interested in trying but we made it work. We ordered the coconut calamari, it was average. Not very crispy or flavorful. We ordered a handful of entrees, the fish n chips was decent size but overloaded with fries and very little fish. The Cajun shrimp tacos were very flavorful would highly recommend. My order unfortunately had hair inside. The waiter quickly got the issue resolved and a fresh plate brought out in minutes. The Serrano bacon burger came highly recommended from friends. They were very happy with it, as well as the spicy chicken sandwich. All in all it was a decent experience. read more

I used Coronado brewing for a special occasion event and they were AMAZING. Deanna was my main point of contact and was on top of everything. CJ handled the operations the day of and everything went super smoothly. On top of that, great beer, great food, great spot! Take the ferry from downtown and you can walk there! Thanks a bunch! read more

Decent beers and great fish tacos, nice ambience. Family friendly. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. Very good wait staff. I think we were there on 30 March. read more

So we do our annual Holiday Ride to see the tree at the Hotel Del and finish off with lunch at Coronado Brewing Company. Yesterday there were pushing 20 of us so the sat is in a corner area of 4 table near a fire. Unfortunately the windows were open which made it slightly chilly so we closed the blinds to keep the cold air out. The food was good although there was an error, but our waiter Edgar fixed it easily by brings ng us the cole slaw which was omitted. The food was good. I usually get the brew house salad and this time split a meat eaters flatbread with my husband. Seemed like it was a bit sloppily made with more meat on one side, but as always it tasted good and the beer was good as it always is. Enjoyed a Palm Sway IPA. read more

Came here for the first time over the weekend after our soccer tournament. The wait wasn't long and the food was delicious. The location wasn't too loud, so we were all able to talk without having to yell - which was appreciative. The kids even liked the pizzas and devoured them! Will be back. Maybe next time, without the kids! haha read more

Stopped by the CBC while on a business trip in San Diego for lunch! Everything was awesome, from the host, to the waitress to food! The waitress was very courteous and customer service friendly. The food came out to the table roughly 10 mins after ordering and it was delicious. I ordered the Woohoo fish tacos and it was AMAZING! Highly recommend!!! read more

Well the only thing I've tried so far is their cider and it is complete crap, someone needs to go to England and experience what real cider taste like. Yours just taste like beer with flavoring.. I'll try some other stuff but I'm not a beer drinker, so I was looking forward to some good cider. read more

The beer and food was good. We ordered a pizza, their Mac and cheese, their harvest salad, and a pretzel. The salad and pizza was delicious. However my son did not really like or finish the Mac and cheese. They have a great beer selection and the waitstaff were very friendly. Overall, we had a good experience and will definitely go back. read more

I've been a fan of Coronado Brewery for years it's always been one of my go tos. You can never really go wrong with the variety of food and beers they have to offer. They're gonna have something you're craving on the menu. I called in a lunch order was hoping to get my fav Baja Cesar Salad with shrimp coming to find out they no longer serve it *sad face* my heart literally broke it was one of my favorite dishes they had. So I had to decide on something else to try so I went with the California flatbread that was more like a pizza just no sauce lol. I wasn't mad about it, super fresh ingredients perfect crunch in every bite. I'll have to find a new favorite dish but I'm okay with that. I will always be a customer! :) read more

The food was your average bar food but the beer was great. The place has a great atmosphere!

As an out of towner, this was one of the most highly suggested places to visit on Coronado. And it definitely lived up to the hype. The vibe was a beachy brewery, which fit perfectly for its location. The beer options were numerous including two NA beers by Figueroa Mountain Brewing. As a previous drinker who loves the atmosphere of breweries, I was thrilled to see those NA options. I selected the Blonde Ale which was absolutely delicious! We only ordered an appetizer due to having a dinner reservation later in the day. The spinach artichoke dip was to die for. Honestly the best spinach artichoke dip I've ever had. It was so good that we forgot to take a picture of it. Highly recommend stopping here for a beer and a bite to eat. read more

Popped in here not realizing this is literally a 5 minute walk from the ferry landing. I caught a few innings of the Pads playoff game here and a few beers at the bar. The one thing I thought was weird was they built a part of the bar for standing room next to the edge of the last seat (where I sat). Seven or eight people showed up and stood at that part and started crowding me in a bit. This also overflowed toward the entrance where this area is located. Got a bit too much for me and I left shortly after. Overall the beer was fine and the service was good. If I sat somewhere else I'd probably felt a little different. I wouldn't be against trying this spot again . read more

Very good food very good service and the beers always good, they were busy but they fit you in quickly and we had a great meal.

Coronado Brewing is a trendy spot with plenty of outdoor seating on beautiful Coronado Island in San Diego. No outdoor heaters here so bring a jacket if you're staying late to front the chill :) . We had a mediterranean pizza and it was delicious! Olives, artichoke and feta cheese with a slight vinegar-y taste was fresh and unexpected. The front outdoor seating area faced a humble, well maintained garden of succulents, under delicate white lights, made for a pleasant outdoor dining experience. read more

We walked from one end of the island to the other for this one and it was worth every step! We had a short wait, but you could track it (thanks Yelp waitlist!) and were seated just before the quoted time. We started - as usual - with the soft pretzel appetizer. Didn't love the queso, but it wasn't spicy. I don't often order pasta in a restaurant, but I saw more than a few jambalaya pastas as I passed through the restaurant and had to try it. So glad I did, the sauce could have been a little thicker, but other than that it was perfect. Love the Orange Ave Wit, checked the locator on the website to and was happy to see I could find it at home! read more

Never answer their phone and the beer has gotten average. The food is really good and the staff is cool. Never post beers like most places do. Have a great collab w Burgeon but who knows if they are pouring it read more

Fish Tacos! We loved this place - kicking off our 20th Wedding Anniversary Weekend. The grilled wahoo tacos on flour and the fried fish tacos on corn were big hits. The wine & craft IPAs were excellent. The service was slow, but provided superb recommendations. A must stop on the island. read more

Review for 09/2020. We came here on a weekend and were seated pretty quickly. You leave your name/number at the front and they txt you when your table is ready. Regarding COVID safety, We walked by the kitchen to the back and the people in the kitchen making the food had their nose out of the mask, put me on edge from the start. Most staff had their mask on properly and even though they were crowded, tables were spread out. For food we ordered the ahi tuna sandwich which was decent. The tuna itself was seared perfectly but the taste was masked by the other flavors like pickles, sauce etc. Skip on the chip and dip and onion rings. Onion rings were not crunchy as they were soaked in oil. and oDips were underwhelming. Salsa and guacamole had little flavor. The beers we had were good though! Our waitress was so nice but the hostess at the front were not so nice. They were not welcoming at all as soon as we came through. Not recommend, especially with so many other eating options next door! read more

Decided to come here for lunch at the Coronado location since we love the Mission Beach location so much. This was definitely a different atmosphere. They did have more food options though which we liked. We got the spinach dip for an appetizer which came with tortilla chips. Chips were a little stale but the dip was good and had a nice creamy texture. This was $11 and was not a very big portion. For our main dishes we had the Mermaid Burger and the Serrano Bacon Burger. Both burgers came with bacon which was greasy and floppy. Not thick and crispy which is preferred but this is just a preference. About half way through my boyfriends burger he bit into what was parchment paper. After further inspection, this was throughout the rest of his burger which he had to take apart and find the rest of the paper. The manager was nice enough to take this burger off the bill. I did decide to "upgrade" my fries to the garlic fries which I would warn is a complete waste of an extra $2 since the cheese and garlic fall right off the fries and you barely even get to taste it. I would skip this. Overall, wasn't the worst experience we had but did not leave me wanting to come back. read more

Coronado Brewing is a busy place, but it is a chill spot to hang out and have some good brews and food. There are so many different beers on the menu. The guava islander is a fruity IPA that I enjoy. Otherwise, the peach cruiser and shaka berry are other fruity options on the seasonal menu that I enjoy as well. The brewpub is a huge space with plenty of tables and a bar area. The menu has a good spread of food: salads, pizzas, burgers, tacos, and even steak. I came for happy hour once and had the islander ahi poke, which is poke with wonton chips. The poke was fresh, and it was a tasty appetizer. I came another time for dinner with some friends and had a pizza. The pizza was tasty and super filling. Overall, the food is solid, and the service is solid as well. Coronado Brewing draws a lot of locals and tourists. It can get pretty packed, and there can be a bit of a wait. Street parking can be a pain as well since the area is busy. Also, street parking is not free until after a certain time. The wait and parking situation can be a little frustrating, but a cold beer is a good reward once you are seated. read more

Wonderful food variety options, great quality. The atmosphere is so inviting, especially with the adjustable windows and fireplace. Great at serving large parties. I do miss their fresh pizza dough though, when they could make you a custom calzone. Also way too many fries served with fish & chips! Super minor things though. Always clean and nice. read more

Place was PACKED at 3pm on a Thursday. Found a spot at the bar which is adjacent to the grill, so it was kinda hot. They have a couple of dozen booths and patio seating too, but they were all occupied. It must have been happy hour, because pints were $4 at 3ish in the afternoon. First pint was their Orange Avenue Wit. Very similar to a Blue Moon but not executed as well. Very citrusy but not enough coriander. Pint number two was the Mermaid's Red Ale. It has a sweet citrusy, malty taste to it. It was just a tad on the dry side and I wasn't expecting the citrusy taste in a red ale, but I really dug it. This was a good brew. As I said, the place was literally packed, and thus very noisy. They have a full menu, but I elected to consume all of my nutrients from a pint glass that afternoon. read more

Seeking a spot for a bite and a brew is no easy task in San Diego. With the abundance of breweries popping up constantly, it's hard to choose just one place to start, or stop! With a few hours to kill before checking into our Airbnb, we chose to head over to Coronado Island to explore. Coronado Brewing seemed like an obvious choice and proved to be A-OK. I'll say it - parking is a nightmare. Course this part of the island consists of one-way streets, extreme traffic and Limited Street and/or lot parking. Although there is sign indicating parking in the rear, there are only a few spots back there that fill up fast. And I mean REAL fast. We circled the bock a half dozen times before getting lucky with a spot on the street with metered parking. Walking up to the restaurant/brewery, it's hard to miss the lush greenery and flowers that surround the entrance. Being a lover of palm trees, I swooned at the views and immediately insisted we sit on the small patio out front. The hostess greeted us, stating there was about a 20 minute wait - which was no problem at all, considering it was lunch time on a Friday. We bummed around the area, before receiving a text stating our table was ready - much sooner than our quoted wait time! I was a bit overwhelmed in viewing the brew list, as there are endless beers on tap to choose from. Thankfully we settled on a flight of 5 before ordering a bite to eat. We chose the Guava Islander, Mermaid Red, Weekend Vibes, Peach Cruiser and Never better, all of which were different and arrived quickly. I enjoyed each pour, as they were fresh, crisp and totally hit the spot. My favorite Peach Cruiser provided a full body and delicious peach flavor! For food, I chose an order of the calamari - as I wasn't too hungry but wanted to indulge in local seafood, while my husband opted for the brewery pretzel. Although my appetizer was heavily breaded, I ate about half of it before getting a box to take with me. The pretzel was MASSIVE and featured 3 dipping sauces - a beer cheese, spicy mustard and regular mustard. It hit the spot but wasn't out of this world.  Service was on point, which made our experience enjoyable. While the beers were delicious and our experience proved to be okay, I wouldn't go out of my way to come to this location next time. Traffic and parking make it hard to maneuver, and the food was just A-ok. read more

We went for a very late-lunch happy hour, and experienced excellent service, food and beer. Walking distance to the ferry landing.

Awesome place, it's our family's go to when in San Diego. We never go anywhere else when we drive into town... cheers

My husband and I were very excited to try this brewery as it is his favorite beer company. Unfortunately we were met with nothing but a bad experience. As we walked in we asked to sit at the open seating bar area but the hostess herself told us that if we did not like that it was crowded we can go to a different bar around the corner "who serves pretty much the same thing". Regardless of the welcome we opted to stay and try it out we ordered two beers but it took the bartender over 20 minutes to even acknowledge us, no hate towards her as we do understand it was quite busy & she was very nice but she was the only bartender serving all the drinks alone, and to top it off she was pregnant I can't imagine how tired she must be with NO HELP at all. We closed our tab and left. They really need to improve their customer service. read more

The Coronado Brewery is a casual and approachable brew-restaurant that's within walking distance of the Coronado Ferry Landing. Notes: - They have a large space inside and a covered patio area. - While they always make you wait for a table, even if there are empty tables, it's not an unreasonable wait. They'll text you when your table is ready. - The food was pretty good, I wouldn't say amazing, but after a few beers does it matter? What was awesome - Blue cheeseburger. Very bold, juicy and flavorful. All of their burgers are great tasting. Pizza. What sucked - Kids mac and cheese. $7 for a third of a box of the cheap blue box brand.. What a ripoff. Tip - Park in their private lot in the back alley.. read more

Friendly, quick service. So many delicious food options. Great beer options all made by the Brewery.

Okay - I'm a loyal customer and get a long with people. Today, several Marines wanted to have a beer and fellowship. Nothing big, sitting out back at a table. Thought everything was okay, in settle our checks. One Marine purchase a six pack for the road, I left to the restroom. Once I returned I notice one Marine had taken a beer from the six pack (not his) and opened it, as I was walking up, I was approach by the Grace and said that's not allowed. Marine was like okay and we left. I came back like two hours later with a different group and was having a beer and waitress came back and was like "I'm sorry - I didn't know you were cut off!" I'm like for what? No one ever approach me to say - sorry you are cut off for ???? My issue - where is posted that can beer can't be consumer on premise that was bought there. More importantly I didn't open the beer!!!! Once, informed of the matter Marine departed. So how/why was I cut off???? Hell I didn't know... CRAZY but why didn't Grace in her lack of Management, discuss the issue. If you want to participate in Management decision, please act like a manager. Cut me off from drinking when I only had one beer several hours early but is okay to make money off my meal, not tonight! Thanks but no thanks. TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED!!!! read more

Great spot on Coronado! We stopped here for a drink on the 4th of July after another restaurant and we enjoyed Coronado Brewing much more than the other place. The staff was extremely nice and attentive. The inside has a cool vibe and wasn't too loud, we could actually have a conversation here unlike the other restaurant. I had the cider and it was fantastic, not overly sweet. We also ordered the pretzel, which came with a fantastic jalapeño cheese dip. Highly recommend for anyone on Coronado! read more

My wife and I were in San Diego for vacation with my sister and Brother-in-law and we took a walking tour of the island from the historical center. For lunch, we went to Coronado Brewing and I ordered an IPA, delish, super hoppy and very San Diego. I got the grilled fish tacos. Super juicy and lots of accouterments on the taco like guac and cheese and lots of salsas. The side salad wasn't cheapo lettuce and it was a solid side. I ordered a second IPA and we had lots of laughs on another perfect day in San Diego. The service was great and atmosphere was top notch. Awesome brewpub to try in the best city in America. read more
