A variety of craft beers are served at this taproom restaurant, from lager, india pale ale to hazy IPA and even barrel-aged beers. You can totally customize your beer flight, so you get to try even more options. I chose Mind Haze Cosmic Crusher, Hopnosis, ParaPajamas, Parabolita and Baltic Merlin The food was so good too, especially the Ahi Wonton Tacos. The food goes great with the beer and isn't overly salty like some other gastropubs. read more

I had a fantastic experience at Firestone Walker. Seth was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to help me select the perfect barrel-aged stout based on my preferences. His recommendations were spot on, and it was clear that he has a genuine passion for craft beer and customer service. If you're looking for great beer and expert guidance, I highly recommend stopping by and asking for Seth. I'll definitely be back! Cheers to great beer and outstanding service! read more

Finally made it back for Spring break and enjoyed more of it by signing up for the brewery tour. I know the burgers are the way to go and tried 3 different burgers this time, with 3 different fries skinny, lion, garlic parm, lol. Different is good, but I think the classic 805 smash burger is the KISS, keep it simple stupid, fav. Same with fries, skinny or lion are the best. The garlic parm upgrade was tasty but too oily. I love the regular fries with their crack ranch sauce to dip into. Oh, I did get to try a sample of one of the sours. Never had sour ale before, so this was a great chance to try it out! Definitely an acquired taste, as it was not for me. Glad I didn't just order a glass of it! I'll stick to my fav kiss UDBA, lol. For the brewery tour, my bad in misunderstanding in signing up. Per person over 12 does not mean the ticketed participant pays to drink the samples, while under 12 can go for free without samples. It means, no one under 12 can go on tour period (not just stroller babies, anyone under 12 is no go), it's the law so that's that. They kindly offered to still get me beer flight while I relaxed in the room with the under 12 kid:) All the beers I chose were delicious and I had a great time chatting with Ms. April, like a personal bartender! Tour came back in about an hour and wife was tired from it. Glad I stayed behind to just enjoy the tour, since inside the factory was loud when had to enter the door to use the restroom. So if thinking of doing beer flight in the restaurant, just go across the street and do the tour without doing the tour and enjoy the flight here! A must stop in Paso for me. I still need to hit the one in Venice - Marina Del Rey area... Wife recommended to her coworker and they went to that location and loved the burgers and beer. So if can't make it up to Paso for the OG location, the one in LA is much closer for us LA/OC folks. April told me the Sunglider beer they had was developed in the Venice/Marina location, and it's become popular to become a permanent offering or something. So maybe time to go check out the Venice/Marina location to discover what is under R&D! (but I am sure I will still just get the UDBA there, lol) read more

Even tho we live close by, we hadn't been here in over 6 years and decided it was time to visit again. We arrived shortly after noon on a Monday and were seated quickly in a booth in the bar area. The ambiance in there is great! Especially love the beer conveyor belt overhead. Unique & cool so we were glad to see it still the bar focal point. The menu had changed quite a bit since our last visit. We had the smash burger & the chicken sandwich. Both were tasty and we liked the presentation - and both were a noticeable step up from what we used to get here. So great job on upping their food game! The burger was delicious albeit a wee bit greasy & messy - glad I got the sauce on the side. My partner said the chicken sandwich was tasty yet messy, and had a bit of an identity crisis in that it had a lot of flavors that were nice independently but not terribly cohesive. Well executed fries. Nice touch served in a paper bag - not greasy & perfectly salted. Server was super nice - but - 4 stars only for service bc he forgot our requested waters & then brought us the check before we ordered our second round of beers. Note: it wasn't busy so they weren't trying at all to rush us, they just falsely assumed we didn't want more beers. I was only halfway thru mine while my partner's was empty and moved towards the edge of the table (universal sign for "beer me, please!". Server was cute about it but we would have stayed and enjoyed even more beers if he had asked if we wanted another round. So - glad we came back to check out the newer menu. Beers are consistently good here and definitely THE reason to visit. The DBA is especially exquisite. Lots of seating options - patio, bar, dining room. Parking can be a challenge. Firestone Walker is a place that should be visited at least once if you like good beer. It's not always where the locals go, but it caters wonderfully to visitors & travelers. Lots of great merch, too. read more

First of all reading some of these reviews on here is whack. It is a BREWRY that has food. Yes brewery's are cold. Sit outside if you are too cold inside. We came here for first time and service, food and beer were outstanding. We have high standards too. I likes the smash burger so much I ordered two of them. I probably should have stopped at one cause it was plenty but it was just so darn good. We left with a bunch of cans of beer too. Would go back for sure! read more

Firestone Walker - Paso Robles - 805 Smash Burger - Breweries Near Me - Paso Robles, California

3.5 stars. Came Saturday afternoon 5:15pm it was getting towards crowded but not packed. We sat on the patio which was nice on a warm Saturday afternoon with a kiddo. lots of cute dogs to look at. but no one came to check on us, I had to ask the hostess and someone came out. We ordered 2 beers- 805 cerveza & mind haze, waters, kids chicken tenders, kids lemonade, tritip Sando, and 805 fish tacos. We got our food pretty quick which I appreciated but had to wait for the utensils and kids lemonade. My fish tacos were meh, tasted plain with batter being the main flavor. Was hoping they would taste amazing with the 805 cerveza but it was meh. Hubby loved his tritip sando. He loved the bbq sauce and aoli sauce. He ate it all up. My kiddos chicken tenders and fries was huge!! Had to get it packed up to go. Would be great for a hungry growing boy. Overall it was ok, liked the patio, service was meh, and my tacos were meh, we will be back though I just won't get the tacos again. it's great stop driving back from the beach. read more

The vibe, the beer, the service, and the food! We liked it all. We have been here many times over the years and as usual were happy with our meal. I love that they have meat free and dairy free options, and my husband was happy with his meat full option. We sat on the back patio, in the perfect weather and our server was very attentive. My portabella sando was fantastic, and my husband loved his fish tacos. Paired with a Cali squeeze and a 805 Cervesa we had a great time and a great meal! Go there if you prefer beer on tap, far better then in a can. You can even take your littles! Family friendly all the way. read more

Always a ritual to stop by and get 805 Cerveza with 805 smash! The smashburger is a perfect blend of meat, juicy cheese, onions, pickles, house sauce and with the soft bun. Every bite was great and Wasn't overwhelming in any way. Perfect smash burger! Also got the buffalo chicken wings this time which was decent but can be skipped if you're not into it. As far as service Ely was a great server as well and very attentive and always checked up on us. This place is great stop by and try them out! Everyone's friendly, good food and good beer! read more

Firestone Walker - Paso Robles - 805 Smash Burger and Basket Garlic Parmesan Fries - Breweries Near Me - Paso Robles, California

We stopped on the way home from Cambria. We had the dogs so (6) of us plus (3) dogs sat on the patio, under the heaters, very cozy. Server was friendly and attentive. We ordered the pretzel and Parmesan cheese fries as an app along with a couple of beers, a Coke and my Diet Coke. Pretzel came with cheese sauce and mustard, big Bavarian type twist, plenty to share. Fries were great, came with ketchup, plenty to share. We ordered a couple of smash burgers (shared) and I got the fish and chips with steak fries. The burgers were great and my fish and chips were amazing, they even had the malt vinegar. Highly recommend for a quick lunch if you're in the area. read more

We felt like we hit the jackpot when we found out we could visit Firestone Walker while we were in town. We've had several of their special brews so getting a chance to try them in person was a real treat! We were seated immediately by the friendly host staff and we were off to the sampling races in no time! Our attentive server Nicholas was so helpful and provided great service and suggestions! We got a few flights of some brews we've never had a chance to try before and snagged a few bottles and cans to go to enjoy at a later time. We were there around lunch time so we wanted to get a bite to eat too and that was definitely a good choice! We decided to share a braised rib on a bed of polenta with roasted vegetables which was absolutely delicious and oh so tender! It was very refreshing to see families gathering around us and all the laughter and joy filling this large space! All of the staff were noticeably happy so it felt good to see that too! We had no idea Firestone Walker was in Paso Robles but now we know! We couldn't believe how large the production facilities were when we pulled up! Wish we had more time to be able to do a tour but we'll have to plan for that next time we're in town. It was our first time in the area but it won't be our last! We can't wait to come back! I hope everyone else doesn't hesitate to go check them out too! You won't regret it! read more

I ordered the combo taco plate on Tuesday. The meat was cold and flavor soso. Meat flavor comes in part from heated meat.

This is our second Firestone Taproom we have been to. The first one was in Buellton. Very large dining area and a good amount of 805 Merch (my husband already has it all). Solid place for cold beers and pub type food. Service is excellent. Our server was Zach and he was very attentive, refilling waters, etc. The food is good. My husband ordered a burger with fries and I ordered Mac n Cheese (appetizer size). Food came out quickly and the beers were cold and refreshing. Definitely a great place for families and large groups. We saw several large groups and lots of families! read more

Visiting the Paso Robles brewery is an experience in itself. One of the coolest details is the conveyor system running overhead with cans moving through production. Watching beer literally travel above you while you sit in the taproom is a unique touch that makes the place feel alive and fully operational. When we visited, the restaurant was about three quarters full and steady foot traffic kept coming in. It did feel slightly understaffed for the volume, but the bartenders and servers handled it well. Despite the pace, service never felt chaotic or careless. They managed the flow professionally, which says a lot. The beer is exactly what you expect from Firestone Walker: fresh, clean, and consistently excellent. One of the biggest perks of going directly to the brewery is access to draft pours and bottled releases that do not make it out to other metropolitan areas. If you are into sours or stouts, you will be happy. Their core lineup is strong, and the rotating tap selection keeps things interesting. You can stick with the classics or try something new every visit. Across the street, the Emporium is worth stopping into. If you are looking for branded merchandise, this is the place. They lean heavily into the 805 theme, but there is still a wide range of Firestone Walker gear and plenty of bottles, cans, and even kegs available to take home. Overall, it is a great stop whether you are a casual beer drinker or someone who follows craft releases closely. Between the production visuals, rotating taps, and exclusive offerings, it is absolutely worth visiting when you are in Paso Robles. read more

I don't go here often enough! I am not much of a drinker but, they have such great food! It's a quick drive from my house and I always feel that it's worth it. Weekdays are definitely the better time to go. It can get crazy busy on the weekends! The staff is really good at taking care of you, getting your order out pretty quickly and staying on top of your needs. It such a great environment to enjoy yourself or with a group of friends too. Try it out! read more

Visited during a trip to Paso Robles this fall. We had little ones with us and wanted to make the dinner experience easy so we decided to stay away from downtown because parking/crowds are tricky. I really wanted this to be a yummy meal but it fell flat. It is your typical pub/bar food. The burger was not bad and the fries were just fine. We did a beer flight because it's worth it to do that at this location. The service was not amazing. She had a lot of tables. I wish I could say that I'd be back, but I don't think I would make it a stop next time read more

Stopped by for one of my favorite brews and a bite to eat. The restaurant is very nice and spacious; truly a nod to the large brewery by its name. We arrived at a good time; between lunch and dinner service so there was no wait. My wife ordered a beer flight. I went for the blood orange Cali Squeeze which I really enjoy. We paired this with the large shrimp appetizer. For our main course we had the ribs and the blue cheese burger. Everything tasted good. I particularly liked the shoe string fries. I'm glad I stopped by . Will definitely return read more

This brewery is huge and you'll probably see it as you are driving on 101. We came here for beer and dinner and I love that you can order individually with QR code at the table. I got a Pear Saison beer and it is delightful. I don't drink beer much but I love this one and would come back for this. However it's the food item that I didn't quite like. I ordered the fish and chips off of their signature menu. But the fish came soggy and is completely falling apart. I felt so bad sending it back but the service is amazing and they made a new one. The new one also came falling apart. It's somehow fresh and soggy at the same time. The batter is just offfffff the fish like no tomorrow. And it really kills the fish and chips experience you know. The thing is. This is a signature menu item. It's not your afterthought food item. I would imagine a signature item is well thought out but it didn't deliver. The chips tho are delicious! It's nicely fried, could be crispier on the outside but this is good enough. The inside has very tall ceilings and it feels very open. Btw there is a super interesting beer can conveyor belt installation. So cool! read more

Visiting from Denver and stopped in for craft brews and dinner on the way into our B&B. Union Jack is a favorite and hard to find in Denver. Wife ordered their pizza of the day for dinner but was not to her liking. They took it back no questions asked and replaced with an alternate selection. Meanwhile I had asked for another beer that didn't come right away. When they figured it out they immediately brought my beer and comped it on my bill. 5 stars for taking care of the customer. Would go back. read more

Firestone is always delicious and hits the spot - especially after a mini road trip! Some great beers, American cuisine, and good vibes. I've been to the Buellton location and this was my first time visiting the one in Paso. It's basically on a Firestone Walker compound, and very spacious indoors and out! Our service was very friendly and fast, and we enjoyed our beers and burgers. You can't really go wrong with anything, it's a bit like upgraded bar food. Come for the bites, stay for the beers with good company! read more

Finally made it to Firestone Walker to try out some of my fave beers! This is a really cool location with the brewery and taproom in one spot. It is a very industrial looking complex that added to the experience. The taproom is huge with plenty of seating. We ordered the Cali-Western Smash Burger. This was a really good burger with the bacon and BBQ sauce. The potato bun added a nice touch to the burger. We also ordered the meat pizza. It had great taste and substance, but the cust could have been cooked longer. The server was really helpful and quick to get us beers and allowed us to taste a couple prior to committing. They have several beers that I had not seen before and was happy to taste them out. We wished they had the Cali Squeeze on tap so that we could try them out. We got there a little late and missed going to the merch Emporium, also located in the same complex. They do have a small merch section in the taproom, but apparently they have much more in the Emporium. read more

We had just finished our tour of the brewery and we were hungry so we decided to grab a bite at their restaurant. We initially didn't have high expectations since many other brewery restaurants we had visited had mediocre food. But we were truly surprised at the quality and taste of the food. We were seated fairly quickly and upon ordering our food, the food arrived with minimal delay. We had ordered various items to share in addition to our own plates. The Brussels sprouts were definitely sweet, but not too over the top. The carne asada fries and pretzels were hits. I had ordered the Merlin Mustard Glazed Ribs and I was curious (and a bit concerned) if I had made the right choice since badly cooked ribs can end up like cardboard. But the ribs turned out to be delicious. The meat fell off the bone and was juicy. The tangy bbq sauce that came on the side with the ribs really paired well with the ribs. I dusted the entire plate of ribs. Overall Firestone Walker has great beers and also great food. read more

Another great time at Firestone Brewery restaurant. All the food I've gotten here has been great. Today I decided on fish sticks. Love them! Always. We got the huge pretzel, which is so yummy and soft. We got a flight of beers and I tried a fruit seltzer, which was really good. I'm not a beer person so that says a lot. Didn't taste like beer, but taste like fruit and had more alcohol than the 805 had. We sat inside, our the waitress was wonderful. Always a great time. Not many people on this Sunday afternoon. Everything is clean and I love that the booths are elevated so you feel like above everyone else. Haha Great time! read more

This place is great! Food: I really enjoyed the shiitake mushroom smash burger (burger of the month). The Swiss cheese and mushroom went soooo well together! The patty was okay. This burger is great for people who like umami flavors. Amazing The salad was pretty good!! The crisps gave a great crunch and texture. I like the pizza so dang much. It's like slightly spicy..cheesy, delicious all at once! Great balance of flavors. I like how they make their crust, pretty crunchy on the outside but incredibly soft in the inside. Service: LOVE the service. The waiter was very nice and gave us absolutely amazing recommendations! (Shiitake burger and Brie pizza) Ambiance: Pretty decent ambiance. Not much to say. 9/10 read more

PROS: - There's outdoor seating that's DOG FRIENDLY. - The staff here are really nice and professional. - The burgers and sandwiches are FANTASTIC here. - The fries are also excellent and come with a hefty portion when ordering. - OF course, the beer is good as well. - There's a good merch store down the street from the actual restaurant that carries lots of stuff, from shirts, sweaters, mugs, to shot glasses. CONS: - I'm not sure if there is a parking lot, but the only parking we could find was on the street. - If you're seated outside, there is a VERY STRONG SMELL of hops either steaming or cooking that drifts towards you. If you don't like the smell, it can be very distracting and annoying. PRO-TIP: - Get their flight of beers to get a taste of several beers without filling your gut. read more

Came here for dinner on a Sunday. It was busy, but no wait to be seated. We ordered the fish and chips, spring roll salad, and garlic fries. We also tried a non-alcoholic beer which was 12 ounces and had a light and mild flavor. The fish was fresh and tender. You cannot get garlic fries with it for an up charge though. The salad had good flavors. The garlic fries were a little overpriced, but the server ended up giving them to us half off since they came out after the entrees. Otherwise reasonable prices with average size portions. Nice pub ambiance. Server was nice. Free street parking. read more

Though we dined at the TapRoom across the street from the brewery, this review is for the Brewhouse Guided Tour.
