City council meeting
Kristen H.

Nice spot I always pass by but never go in cuz it's a strip mall. Typical American bar food. I had fish and chips and it tasted nice and crispy. The ambience is nice and not a typical bar. Not loud. Self service with a QR code wasn't as personable but oh well. I would go back. Easy parking in private lot. Reasonable prices. Good stuff.

I wanted to stop by Device because of Ginger Elizabeth Chocolate. They're a local chocolate shop and I tried their DIPA chocolate made with one of Device Brewing's IPAs. I walked in after finding a spot in their huge lot and asked what the beer used in the chocolate was. No one really knew, but I did try their flagship IPA, HOP REVOLT. I was hungry so I ended up getting their Philly Cheesesteak. The sandwich honestly could have been better. It felt more like a loose meat sandwich than a Philly-there wasn't much cheese on it and you that's half of what makes a cheesesteak a cheesesteak. The roll was claimed to be authentic which it could be, but I'm sure a coast to coast trip meant it wasn't going to be the freshest. I had their Oktoberfest as a last drink which was ok. The beers were ok but the food leaves something to be desired.

Friendly staff. Love their flights! Best way to try them all. Lots of seating and very family friendly. I'll definitely be back to enjoy another flight.

Saw that this place was serving brunch so I went to try it. Got their waffles and bacon and eggs benedict. The waffles was not good. Usually for waffles, you would think of a crispy outside with a soft inside but nope. The waffles was just all around soggy and tasted just like a pancake. The fruits on the waffles tasted sour and like it was placed out for a while. The egg benedict needed some major seasoning. It tasted so bland . I felt like the least they could do was season it properly with salt and pepper. One of the eggs that I received was fully cooked. I don't recommend this place for brunch. Even though the food was not good, they still provide good service. Please do a revamp on your brunch menu.

Fried chicken sandwich. The tots are so good!!!
Tracy W.

This is a very cool spot! Super spacious with tons of both indoor and outdoor tables available. You can also rent out a space in the brewery. We actually didn't try the beer but the food was very good! The pretzel sticks were decent but not our favorite. The best thing was the fish and chips for sure! Super light, flaky, and fresh. The tots were also very good. The chicken sandwich was flavorful. We'll be back to try potentials next time! It is pretty pricey so be prepared to for our some dough, but I thought it was worth it.

Cobb Salad with grilled chicken and bleu cheese
Karen T.

An awesome local brewery with a dog friendly patio. Lots of tables around so there's always enough room to make space if you have a reactive dog. The crowd varies by day and time. My boyfriend and I come frequently for the food. The portions are always very generous! I almost always get the Cobb salad. Though it comes out differently each time, it's consistently yummy and very filling. The salads are huge if you care to share. They recently started serving brunch, which is awesome for a local option in the Pocket area!

We came here for a surprise birthday celebration. I have never been here and this place is really big, which can accommodate a large group. They also have a mini arcade area for everyone to enjoy. We opted to sit inside, but there are ample room outside too if you choose. The person who assisted us informed us that we could access the menu through the QR code on the table. I like the concept of being able to pay for your own food if you are there with a large group. I ended up ordering the western bacon cheeseburger with a side salad. My friend got the bangers and mash. Once we ordered and confirmed the order, the food came out at a reasonable time. My burger was pretty good and I also tried the bangers and mash and it tasted fantastic. It also came with a side of Brussels sprouts, which were cooked perfectly. We were informed that they recently started brunch on the weekends from 10:00-1:30pm, so we will definitely be back here again to try.

I am a fan of Device's brews but I absolutely love the Pocket location! It's big and spacious and even when it's hopping, it doesn't feel overly crowded. I love the old timey 90's mall vibe in that atrium area. I also really enjoy the food there! You can always get food outside of the place and bring to have on their patio. I have found that their pretzel bites are super tasty - But I really enjoyed a few of their specials. A few brew recommendations: Their Crispy Rice Boi lager is good for something light, and I loved Curious Haze if you like NE hazies.

I've been to this Device location a few times now, mostly on Trivia Nights (Wednesdays at 6:30pm) and it's my favorite Device Location! I love that they have plenty of outdoor seating, it makes it easy to bring our dog with us and has been great during the pandemic as we practice social distancing and prefer outdoor dining. This location has an awesome beer AND food menu and all of the dishes I've tried have been delicious. I love their pesto tater tots, and really any restaurant that has tater tots on the menu is a winner to me! The staff is also super friendly and on some of these colder winter nights they've been really accommodating making sure to do Trivia for indoor and outdoor diners on their Wednesday nights and making sure the heaters are working (ours ran out of propane last time and they made sure to fix it right away to keep us warm). To sum it up you'll find welcoming staff, cold beer and delicious food here!

Tropical Storm Trooper - Hazy IPA
Susanna P.

I've tried a Device Brewing beer 4 pack cans from Costco which is their What the Haze? It is their delicious, citrusy, crisp, and juicy HAZY IPA. *Mouth waters* If they are local then I'd have to come by and try more right? Decided to come into this location on a Friday since it's on my way home from work. Plentiful parking in the shopping center near Raley's and CVS. I even saw a nail shop and Anime store next door which is awesome. Walked in and there were signs that said to find a seat and you can use the QR code to order your food or go to the bar and order. Noticed an arcade area toward the back of the restaurant and enough to keep kids occupied. I found that their method of finding a seat and using the QR code was more efficient in ordering and getting your food without having to flag someone down. Only issue was if I needed something off the menu I couldn't wave someone down unless they came out and served someone else. The service is a mix of self serve/customer service. I found my seating outdoor because inside was super packed. I scanned the code, ordered my drinks and food from my phone, and had a tab opened with my card #. The drinks came out quick along with the food being fresh and hot (beside the salad of course). I found the time I went (5:30 pm) was during happy hour so my sister and I ordered from the HH menu. We ordered: Chicken strips with garlic fries, half of a Cesar salad which was still a lot, pretzel sticks w/cheese, beers and mimosas. Another time I went with a friend and ordered onion rings and chili and my friend ordered the fried Brussel sprouts. Overall food experience is decent but drinks were always delicious. I had a great time during both visits. The vibe was just perfect and relaxing. The employees who brought our food were oh so helpful, accommodating, and friendly.

First time!

Although I'm not a huge fan of beer, I sometimes indulge just to enjoy the good company of my beer drinking buddies. Due to the pandemic, safely catching up with friends can be a challenge; however, I was ecstatic when a buddy of mine agreed to meet up with me at Device to catch up and consume a couple brews. Upon arrival, I noticed a generous outdoor seating area...I couldn't believe that this used to be a Tuesday Morning. Walking into the establishment, I noticed that there were two lines at the wrap around bar area. After a short wait in line, I was warmly greeted by a gentleman by the name of Ryan. I placed an order for the Beauregard Blueberry & Lavender cider (absolutely delicious). After receiving my beverage I sat at a physically distanced table that faced a television that was playing an early 2000's Laker's game (RIP Kobe). When my friend arrived, I ordered the 8.6% (go hard or go home!) #Citra&Chill IPA (strongly recommended by Ryan) and an order of wings + garlic parmesan fries (also recommended by Ryan). I'm usually not a fan of food served at bars and breweries. However, I was thoroughly satisfied with the quality of the beer and food at Device. When my wife and I lived in Greenhaven, we often complained about there not being enough places to lounge and have a drink or two (I believe the only place at the time was called The Trap). However, things have changed and Device Brewing is definitely a well-needed and appreciated establishment in the Greenhaven area...I will be back soon!

Philly cheese steak
Philip B.

What happened? Device's Philly cheese used to be my favorite in Sacramento. I got it all the time. I used to brag about it. Now it's a $16 cat food sandwich. I couldn't even touch it, I just left it on the table. Service is great. Beer's great. We love going there, but the food has been bad the last few times. They were never consistent but a strong mediocre. With their prices, I'd think that their quality would better. But no. Cat food sandwich

Do you play the sound for the NBA playoffs 😬?

I don't watch at all unless my hubby has it on. Sports on TV is not my jam.

Is this place opened or closed?

It is open and available both for pickup at the restaurant or delivery through Doordash

Chill little hang out area fit for groups. It's outdoors but has a roof cover. I don't know how it…read moreis when it rains but it seems like light rain would be ok here too. I came on a Thursday afternoon wanting to try the starburst beer. Usually I would order whatever has the highest in alcohol percent but I had seen post about the starburst, it looks so colorful so very inviting I had to try. Didn't get a buzz much but it's probably because after I finished my beer I took a walk to a donut spot I wanted to try that was a few blocks away. A lot of small groups, solo guests like myself and couples plus kids were here. They do sell food but I wasn't really up for trying anything that day. It was hot the day I came and they had mist blowing everywhere so instead of feeling like hot heat it was like a warm moist feeling at the tables. There were higher table seating but I opt for the shared lower tables. I had tried to come by here during a Sunday evening but parking was really hard to find that we didn't choose to look for any parking since there wasn't any close by. I found a space to park just across the street from them. There was a homeless person I had seen that was trying to talk to me but I was walking around where other people were walking so I took it like he was talking to them and just ignored him. I've noticed most homeless people talk to themselves so probably that was the case but hopefully next time I come, he won't be there. There are bathrooms in the back and I saw an entrance from there too. I came in where the line is to order. I glanced at the other beer options but nothing spoke to me like the starburst one. The lady that poured my drink says the foam on top is usually high and pointy but it was kinda flat because of the heat so I'll be trying it again when it gets a bit cooler.

Atmosphere + beer 4/5 Food 3.2.5…read more It's been years since my last visit and it's a good as I remember. You enter without truly knowing where to go or what to do, so be observant as there may be an actual line to order drinks and food, just don't cut someone off. Ordering was easy. Same window for beer and food. If you order food you're given a number that people deliver food. Came here for happy hour. I got myself a pretzel with add-on cheese, a pulled pork (seasonal) Belgie with fries, and I sampled other food that my friends ordered. Firstly, the 1L beer is worth it. Not happy hour prices., but well worth the volume. It definitely transported me back to my visit to Munich and the beer halls. Oh, I do miss the drunken singing of the Germans lol Secondly, the food was just okay. Pretzels were thankfully cheaper since it was happy hour but i paid $1 for the add-on cheese. The mustard combo sauce was great. I wish the pretzel was a bit bigger. I appreciated the warmth and the salt ratio; not overpowering. The Belgie (waffle sandwich) was also on happy hour. The texture of the waffle was great. Crisp exterior, soft interior. I ordered the seasonal pulled pork which was great in texture and decently portioned. It is a thick boy, so biting into it was a bit of a challenge. Ended up deconstructing the sandwich and used utensils. Sauce maybe would've been better on the side. Fries always win. No complaints though I wish I ordered the garlic fries... the smell was good. One thing I didn't get to try was their famous, Starbust drink which is a mix of beer, cider and some frosty, maybe. The color was intriguing and everyone seemed to order it around me. The misters were on, which was a blessing and a curse. Definitely helped cool me down, but also became a nuisance as the table and all my belongings got wet. Excited for their new location in Old Sac. Maybe a revised review in the future. Stay tuned.

We recently visited this establishment as a party of six, hoping for a great dining experience, and…read morewhile certain aspects of our visit were highly commendable, the food ultimately left us feeling shortchanged. Right from the moment we walked in, the positive attributes of the venue were clear. The entire restaurant was noticeably clean, tidy, and well-maintained, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere for our group. Furthermore, the front-of-house staff provided genuinely good service throughout the evening. Our server was attentive, polite, and handled our larger table with ease, ensuring our drinks stayed full and our orders were taken promptly. Unfortunately, the high standards maintained by the service staff did not translate to what came out of the kitchen. For my entree, I ordered their advertised California Fish and Chips, anticipating a classic, satisfying seafood dish. What was actually served felt more like "chips and fish." The plate was overwhelmingly dominated by a massive mound of soggy, limp fries, while the actual fish was remarkably scarce. I would realistically estimate that the dish consisted of only about 10% fish and 90% subpar fries. For a specialty entree, the severe lack of protein and the poor, mushy texture of the fries made the meal incredibly disappointing to eat. The frustration of the meal was compounded when the final bill arrived and we noticed a 20% automatic tip added to the total due to our group size of six. While we entirely understand and respect that automatic gratuity is a standard industry practice to protect hardworking servers, and our server truly did a great job, it is incredibly frustrating as a customer to be forced to pay a premium tip when the kitchen delivers such a poorly executed and disproportionate meal. A high service charge should reflect a high-quality experience from both the staff and the kitchen, but unfortunately, the lackluster food deeply overshadowed the excellent service.
