Great food! Happy hour is one of the Best! Friendly staff, nice venue! Great Hairlarious Comedy Producer Comedian Johnny Herrera!

Nice environment! Great drinks and love the appetizers. They have live music and on occasion karaoke

Made reservation through yelp. Got to location. Parking was puzzle to find. I'm not a regular in Old Town and figuring out parking between valet , no valet, designated parking non designated parking. I'll do my research prior for next time. Got some steps in to get to the entrance. Live band was playing when we arrived 5:40 on a Friday. That was nice cause it wasn't too loud and it wasn't too soft. "Just right". We were seated right away and I enjoyed the environment. Old West meets, new school feel. I'm bad with names but our server was amazing, super friendly and patient. Me and my date (spouse) were chatting more than looking at the menu We appreciated our servers patience while deciding what to order. Once we made our order the drinks, the appetizer and food came out with great timing. The food was fresh with great portions. Chimchurri is excellent. Can't wait for another date night and heading over to Crush and brew. read more

My friends and I went on a Saturday evening. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We originally got a table inside by the live band but the music was too loud for us so we moved to an outside table. Our server was very nice and attentive. My friend and I shared the Steak Frites and asked for medium rare but the steak was cooked medium/medium well. The truffle fries were delicious. There is a cowboy themed speakeasy inside the restaurant that is first come, first serve. read more

Exploring the area, I decided to try this spot to try a burger and fries. Service was awesome as I was seated quickly and given a menu. There was another group in there catching up,so it was a nice and chill vibe inside. The food was pretty good. The burger was juicy, and the fries were cooked just right as well. Definitely a solid spot to go to if you're in the mood for a burger and fries. I'd definitely go again. read more

Friendly staff & fun bar environment. Based on the drinks menu, the location is far more "Brew" than "Crush". Their wine selection is minimal. read more

The service & staff was great. They do bingo night every Tuesdays. We had such a fun time on bingo night. The lady calling out the numbers was hilarious. But the food was just ok. My son didn't like his Mac n cheese & said it was bland. My fish n chips was so small & overcooked. I only got 1 fish & my whole dinner consisted of mostly just fries. The fries was good tho. My husband's crushed burger was overcooked, meat patty was small, and the buns weren't toasted. We would love to come back here for the bingo night. Maybe try other things on the menu. read more

I stopped in last night to grab a cocktail. I had wanted to do the trivia night but I came too late and missed it. I'll have to come back another day. I love that they have Christmas decorations this year. There wasn't too many people inside, but I did come later in the evening close to closing time. I don't recall the name of my drink, but it was delicious. I didn't catch the bartender's name, but he was great and Aspen is always very nice as well. read more

We had a bday reservation for crush & brew and here's my suggestions vs negativity. Check what entertainment will be going on we were limited to talking through dinner because it was so loud. Make sure that you have that understanding with your waiter/waitress that your food is running on time because we were a party of 5 and it took like 30 minutes minimum to receive our food...now I know what you're saying it's a weekend night pack your patience but however we watched a table of 9 who came after us receive the food and pay the tab and go by the time we received our meal. The food and drinks were amazing and the mgr was very apologetic but at that point there wasn't a whole lot he could do for us for we were already going to be paying and calling it a night, we just wanted to make him aware of the situation! So you'll definitely enjoy crush and brew but just be aware of tips and suggestions! read more

We went to Crush & Brew for dinner during a Bachelorette weekend, and overall had a good time! Our server did a great job keeping up with our group of 12, which isn't easy. The restaurant was pretty full and seemed like a local spot, which gave it a fun, lively vibe. It happened to be karaoke night--maybe it's every night? Either way, it was entertaining, even though most people seemed to be picking really depressing songs. Not Crush & Brew's fault, just an observation. Food-wise, we mostly enjoyed everything, though there were a few misses within our group. I personally loved the fried zucchini--freshly made, crispy, and a generous portion. The bacon fries were also solid and came in a good size. My caprese salad was the last dish to come out, and while it was fine, it definitely needed some salt and pepper. The owner sent over some shots for our table, which we really appreciated! Overall, we had a fun time and would definitely go back. read more

I was traveling home and decided to take a walk to stretch my legs in Downtown Temecula. For it being a Sunday it was so busy and crowded with folks, seeming to do the same. After my walk I decided to grab a bite to eat before making my way home, so i stopped at Crush & Brew. The featured foods were along the lines of California Cuisine - fresh and quick. The menu had a brunch side, which had me curious about the fried rice with pork belly. Instead I opted for something a bit lighter: caprese salad and wings. The staff was very accommodating and offered me their favorite way of ordering wings - which worked out nicely. The wings came well seasoned and prepared as I requested: extra crispy. The salad was fresh, clean, and the basalmic drizzle was great. The restaurant was pretty quiet with some folks opting to sit out doors, so it made for nice ambiance and a quiet lunch. read more

We made a Mother's Day reservation expecting a nice family meal and had one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had. The restaurant was nearly empty -- maybe 3 tables occupied -- yet it took over an hour for the first plate to arrive, and it was cold. Then another cold plate. Then another. By the time the remaining meals came out, also cold, everyone was frustrated and honestly just over it. Instead of trying to fix the situation, staff asked if we wanted boxes while we were still sitting there clearly unhappy and barely served. The final straw was my father-in-law saying, "I'll just eat my burger, I'm starving." The manager brought it out already boxed and bagged. He had specifically requested no lettuce. When he mentioned it, she confidently replied, "Sir, that burger doesn't even come with lettuce." We opened the bun. Full lettuce. The expression on her face said it all. No accountability, poor service, cold food, and a completely disappointing Mother's Day experience. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

Would not go back the service sucks Food wasn't too bad could be a lot hotter, but definitely need more people to help as the service they provided is horrible read more

our waitress, Aspen was personable, friendly. an enjoyable experience. The food was good. Apple walnut salad with shrimp was delicious. The meat in the sandwich had too much fat. read more

You're getting 2 stars because of the delightful young lady who helped us. Rod Run weekend, it was shockingly dead inside. We got a couple drinks and sat outside to people watch. We both ordered a snack, Abominable Fries (a bistro take on animal fries.... Everybody loves a good fry. Add cheese and grilled onions, chop some steak, let it sit for 20 minutes and get cold and soggy, completely forget the bacon we paid extra for and you got it! Abomination fries!!! You can get fries right? When it's slow? No need to come back... read more

Someone said we could get our fairly large party into Crush and Brew-3 tables of eight... We arrived at 5:20 tonight and were immediately seated. We had all three tables served by one waiter -he was also the bartender. The young man ran his rear off and tried to make 24 people happy. But he was overwhelmed by doing two jobs at one time for everyone. Some people got drinks and appetizers immediately; We had to wait for beers, and my wife was the only person at our table who had to wait for her entree after everyone had finished their meals (her fish and chips went to the wrong table). We were rewarded with mostly hot meals, some decent, others bland. While we decided to leave, others in our group at another table were just being served, however there were was three on the table that were served an hour before the last four. Friday night packed? Nope mostly empty except our group. Reason? Most dysfunctional restaurant I've ever been in my life. Never go there until management changed, hires more staff and get their cr@p together!! read more

Super cute Halloween decorations! Came to old town for a drink. I found parking right away on side street and was headed to 1909. I passed this place and honestly, it was so cute that I just had to try it out. I was seated right away. I ordered an espresso martini (which was good and strong) and the brew burger. The burger was ok but I wouldn't order it again. I would definitely come back to try other items on the food menu. read more

I really wanted to like this place when I walked in. However, we could not just walk in, because the party of 5 ahead of us was blocking the door because there was no one at the greeter's station. They politely moved to the side to allow us to enter. There were no employees available, we could only see one very harried bartender, with no other employees in sight. After several minutes a person, who I believe worked there, shuffled the party of 5 off to a table. We were left standing at the entrance for at least 10 minutes until my wife asked the overworked bartender if we could seat ourselves. He agreed and we did. Once seated no one approached... ever. Finally, my wife went to the overworked bartender and ordered two drinks and an order of fries. He was quite the professional and refused to let her carry them. He delivered them with an apology, but no explanation. After 45 minutes of waiting the overworked bartender transitioned to a waiter and took our order. He also delivered the fries... after 45 minutes... We finally placed our dinner order of two steak frites. My wife's meal was mostly fat and mine was only 1/2 fat. Anyways, after almost two hours we asked for the check, the overworked bartender turned waiter took excellent care of us and was gracious and kind. The total bill with wine was over $120. The dinner was forgettable but the dude who waited on us was a treasure. Not sure I would return because management shows a clear predisposition to limiting labor over customer experience. But, I may, just to see if we get that awesome bartender turned waiter guy again. read more

The food was okay but I was expecting better for the price. The service was again just okay. The service was good but nothing a little attention to the customers wouldn't help. The serving sizes was good but again for the price I would expect more. The ambiance was the Star of the visit. Sitting outside and watching the people was a great. Cool breeze was awesome. Overall a good experience and I would give it another try. Maybe because it was a weekday lunch was the reason for the okay experience. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with the manager, Aaron, was disappointing. I came in with a concern and expected a professional conversation, but instead I was met with a rude and dismissive attitude. Rather than listening and trying to understand the situation, Aaron seemed more interested in being argumentative than providing customer service. I understand that misunderstandings can happen, but there's no reason for a manager to speak to customers in a disrespectful manner. A manager should set the standard for professionalism, and unfortunately that was not my experience. I hope the business addresses this issue, because respectful communication goes a long way in maintaining customer trust and loyalty. read more

Good food, great service, it was nice to have lunch on the outdoor patio on a beautiful Sunday afternoon! But what was weird was that Yelp said there was over an hour wait. So we got on the waitlist, then we went about 15 minutes early and the restaurant was empty at 1:00pm! read more

Food was cold after waiting 15 minutes at least for kimchi rice. Came out cold we asked for an replacement , unfortunately the server said "Do you know how busy we are". That's not our problem. Asked for a new one, took longer than the original and asked for our drink tab were made to feel bad about asking for not wanting the replace food. Still tipped on drinks we had but had higher hopes. Went somewhere else with way better service. read more

Terrible service and the band was soooooo loud. None of us could talk to each other. Just turn the speakers down a little for those eating dinner, please. Or pass out earplugs with the apps. Good gawd. read more

I absolutely love this place. It is a very nice and enjoyable environment. Great service. The truffle fries are my absolute favorite and they have good mixed drinks in a good variety of beer. I would definitely recommend this place. I come here a lot to hang out on the patio and just enjoy my day and old town. It's a very authentic place, not sold out like the rest of the other places in old town. read more

The food is so-so. The amount charged to my credit card did not resemble the check I had been given. We were celebrating a birthday..the complementary birthday dessert was on my check then subtracted---but I was taxed for the dessert and I had selected %20 for the tip and amount of the dessert also was included in the %20 for the tip. The final receipt printed for me indicated this is standard practice. Check your receipt at Crush and Bre read more

Service was ok. Our waitress seemed to ignore us after we got our first drinks so we ended up just having the single round. The ambiance was pretty nice. Dimly lit wine bar look. Our drinks were really good. The bartender really knows what they are doing behind that bar. I would've loved to sit at the bar and just ask the bartender to make their specialties. We also had Vinegar and salt fries. They had to be one of the best fries is not the best fries I've ever had. Definitely recommend the fries. They have a few different options. I highly recommend the giant Pretzel also. It was pretty much a perfect pretzel. They obviously care about quality at this establishment. I would like to try more things here but I tried to wave down the waitress for about 30min. She would even look my way with my hand raised. She would even check in the table next to us face my direction with my hand raised and she would just walk by even if we made eye contact. We weren't rude or loud or anything. We were very courteous so we couldn't figure out why she was like that way with us. We felt we could've walked out without paying our bill but we are too honest to do that. We timed it as it was definitely over 20min close to 30min with my hand raised and the waitress just walked around our table so instead of ordering more we decided to pay for what we already consumed and leave. read more

From Chicago, first time in Temecula today. Stopped at C & B for lunch. Some thots: --the kitchen was slow but the service was outstanding, excellent communication! --ordered the fish and chips. The fries are average steak fries, but the fish was high quality. Really lightly breaded and delicious. --some people in our group ordered chicken fingers and didn't like them, not great chicken. --however, two in our group ordered the chicken wings and really liked them. Overall, good ambiance, service, and food. Highly recommended! read more

The location is great, drinks are alright and food is decent. What I don't understand is the servers? Like why aren't the servers hustling and attending to what ever tables are occupied? What's the point of having servers in a restaurant if you have to walk over to the bar to order drinks and food? It just doesn't make sense. Seems there needs to be some education on what good quality customer service is. Side Joy; live the live band. read more
