    26 years. Same table, great beer and always a wonderful dedicated staff. Cheers CBC.

    Some things are forever, like the Monday Evening Adobada Tacos Special Happy on the Stella-Friendly patio. Neighbors pass by on their way to Boney's or walk home from the vet. Simple food, classic suds, catching the familiar easy hometown vibe. Happy.

    Coronado Brewing Company is a MUST on your list of places to visit if you find yourself on Coronado Island. The location is walking distance from the Naval Air Station and if you decide to drive there is a lot of free parking in the streets behind it. I always try to make a stop in while I visit and their beer never disappoints! The bar staff is extremely friendly and they make a lot of great suggestions. I normally just come for their beer but the food looks great too! They sell merchandise and enjoying a pint at their bar never disappoints!

    Whenever we vacation in San Diego, we always hit Coronado and the brewing company. We usually don't have any trouble parking and you can dine al fresco, but outdoor seating is limited! We managed to get there for happy hour, so the beers were good and cheap.

    We had a great experience come here to have drinks for my 30th birthday and the service was amazing here and the artichoke dip was delicious. We'll return again next time

    Pesto Chicken Pizza was delicious!

    Stopped by late Saturday afternoon with a party of six. There was about a 25-30 minute wait, which wasn't bad for the weekend. Once inside, the space is large and open with plenty of seating. Our server, David, was friendly, attentive, and did a great job keeping everything running smoothly. The food was very good and came out quickly after we ordered. The location is a big highlight--just steps from Coronado Beach and super close to the ferry, making it an easy and convenient spot to grab food and drinks. Overall, a great experience with good food, solid service, and an unbeatable location

    I already came here twice. First time, I got the fish and chips. Second time, I had their pub burger. The fish was just okay. It was dry and not fresh and tastes like something they probably get from their distributor. The fries had a seasoning mix I liked, but the texture was mediocre. On the other hand, I thought the burger was really good, so that's what I should've ordered the first time instead of listening to their 20% off recommendation. The bun was thick and hearty, with a very slightly crisp to it. The meat had great flavor, and the veggies were nice as well. Overall, somewhat better than the burger I had at Nicky Rottens. The vibes here were also better, and this is taking into account that I tend to like quiet places. Nicky Rottens is clearly losing business to this joint, so I should prefer the ambience there. But in addition to simply being quieter, something about the open seating and lighting makes it feel disconcerting rather than relaxing. Look at me reviewing a different restaurant in the review of one restaurant. Lol

    Wahoo fish tacos and beer flight !!

    This is one of my go-to spots when ever I'm in San Diego! The dos is always on point and the beer is always delicious! Don't be afraid to venture out and try new things here. You can't go wrong with anything here.

    Ribs and garlic fries

    I left not a single crumb. Food was soooo good, and I enjoyed my non-alcoholic beverage as well. I wish I could eat this again. Definitely a place to go to when visiting Coronado

    Cheese pizza
    Kim W.

    So many beer choices and they were all very good. Our favorite was the orange wit. Sat at the bar and had quite a few beers and shared a cheese pizza. The pizza was really good too. Service was slow but she had a lot to do and very little help so she did her best.

    Nachos Borrachos
    Cat R.

    Located in a nice area and the structure itself is beautiful. Good amount of seating inside and the staff is very friendly. I ordered a crisp cider, which was great, and the nachos borrachos, which was okay. The spinach artichoke dip my mom ordered was really good, though! The street tacos were also okay, not a fan of the flour tortillas and the fish tacos were super fishy tasting. I know they're fish tacos, but normally they don't taste super fishy. Also not as crisp as we would've liked them. What was pretty good was the meat lovers pizza. Suuuuper cheesy and awesome cheese pull.

    Orange street wit
    Melitta S.

    Stopped in for a quick drink and cool off before heading on ferry. Get the orange street wit. Delicious esp if you like citrus summer brews. I'm unrefined I like blue moon, summer shandy, mango cart, lost coast etc. so this is my wheelhouse

    Hector S.

    This review is just regarding the bar and the drinks. I did not try any of the food. The bar can be a lively atmosphere with strangers talking to one another and the service is excellent. Their beers, ciders, and seltzers can be mixed and matched which was interesting. So there is something for everyone. I liked the fruity cedar and the orange seltzer.

    Islander Ahi Poke
    Barry H.

    Been to this place a number of times but haven't written up a review until now. We were celebrating the retirement of the LT and promotion of a coworker. Our group of at least 15 people were seated immediately and the service was friendly and patient (especially with the large group we had). Festivities started and we placed our orders. I had the Islander Ahi Poke (ahi Tuna, poke marinade, with cucumber and avocado over seaweed slaw with Wasabi aioli, micro greens and wonton crisps). Washed down with a Cool Beans Coffee Stout. A very tasty lunch

    We walked from Asa Bakery and it was completely downhill which was nice. Easy to find, not sure how…read moreparking would have gone. It's a good size and you can see the brewing equipment in the open. A lot of windows so it's bright. The staff were super friendly and let you try stuff. Beer I tried: Flight of the Peach: Loaded with peaches. Juicy Cog Bomb: Hoppy with bubblegum . Bitter after taste San Vito: Tastes like a pilsner with a bite Carry On: Slightly smokey. Tastes like like a pilsner. Tastes more like a lager as it warmed up Gnarly Trails: Really bitter Working Brunch: Tastes like watered down coffee. A guy has his dog outside and he was grilling me down which made me laugh the entire time I was there.

    I was flying solo to a Padres game, so I popped into East Village Brewing Company for a pre-game…read morebeer. First off, the space is awesome. A really nice bar sits at the back of the room with tables scattered throughout. A very well-thought-out interior. Clean, bright with natural light and airy. Outside is a beautiful patio with lounge chairs and picnic tables. Some shaded with umbrellas, others (like I prefer) in the sun. The SD Central Library is just across the street. They do not have a kitchen, but they do have a food truck or pop-up almost every day. Check the events calendar on their website. The location is perfect for Padres pre-gaming as the Petco Park entrance is a two-minute walk away. Literally 350 feet away. Sadly, I'd be hard pressed to convince my wife Becky to visit East Village Brewing as they do not offer any hard seltzers (ciders, yes, but they're not even remotely the same). Otherwise, I could see us stopping in before a good number of our 21 Padres games we attend.
