Whenever we are in Bishop we stop here for a cold beverage and a burger. The service is excellent and a great menu. Our vegetarian daughter approves and loves the Brussels sprouts (and the fact it's spelled correctly). We like sitting on the patio (weather permitting) so our dog can come along, too.

We stopped in here after our 5-day backpacking trip on the JMT to grab a burger and brew. The blue cheese burger was excellent and I especially enjoyed the garlic fries with chunks of freshly roasted garlic. The sour was also enjoyed. The prices are what you'd expect from a tourist town. I think my meal was around $27 with tax. The service was average, neither friendly nor rude, just busy. They didn't provide any recommendations but answered my questions. You have to grab your own water and bus your table. No complaints here but if you are looking for more service, this may not be your jam. I'd definitely go back for another meal as it hit the spot! Although there wasn't music, I enjoyed the ambience and liveliness of this place. I appreciated the art on the walls as well.

Another great burger in bishop! Was shocked at how huge it was. Could've shared one! The fries we also good....don't think the garlic ones were worth paying extra for though. Very tasty overall and absolutely massive. Took a long time to get our food though...I think around 40 minutes for our 2 burgers.

Those are homemade torts and chips. The pork in. This taco is insane and abundant!

Great place to stop on 395. Amazing brews and superb salad and sandwiches. Today was Taco Tuesday so we enjoyed a bowl and tacos. The tacos were amazing. Homemade corn tortillas with abundant amount of exceptional pork.. Que bueno! Always clean, cool in the summer and wonderful service.

The food was good. Not too busy for a late Saturday afternoon which was nice. Service was quick. Music is a strange array for brewer/restaurant. But after a while it's just background noise to all the conversations. This probably won't be a place we come again just really not our kinda place.

Brussel sprouts

Disappointed with the wait. It took over 35min to get our food without any indication or warning. Many others seemed to be annoyed with the wait too for their food. The garlic fries are good and the rambler burger was good according to my friends. The Reuben was kinda mid. Dry and chewy/rough pastrami. The brussel sprouts were decent but the tahini was a bit too wet and not thickened enough.

I've been to this brewery 3 times, in 2021, 2022 and 2026. On every visit I have ordered a different IPA. On my June 17 visit I was heading to Mammoth Lakes. I proudly brought in my Mountain Rambler glass growler. A friendly young woman was behind the counter helped me and I asked if I could have my growler filled with their Hell Diver Hazy IPA. I had never had this IPA and did not get a sample. That night at my campsite at Tom's Place that's when I enjoyed my beer and it was delicious. On one of my future visits I will have to try their food because there was a lot of people eating their burgers, pizza and salads and it looked and smelled great.

Chicken Sandwich

An incredibly open concept dining area gives incredible mountain vibes. The friendly staff were welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. Although I wasn't there to drink I did elect for their raspberry lemon "shrub" (non-alcoholic) and it was the best thing I enjoyed there! The chicken sandwich was exactly as advertised and satiated my appetite. My SO got a baked potato with bacon and broccoli (bacoccoli?) and I lowkey wished that's what I ordered... shhh don't tell her. Ultimately this place is a great pit stop on the way to Mammoth, I'll definitely be back!

Red blend and shieldback ipa

My coworkers and I were in Bishop for a work trip and stopped by Mountain Rambler Brewery for a late dinner (kitchen open until 9pm). Our visit happened to coincide with Locals' Night on a Wednesday and we enjoyed the live music and lively atmosphere. Mountain Rambler has a lot of food options, and between the three of us in our group, we got to try a great mix of a burger with garlic fries, a pastrami sandwich with regular fries, a sweet potato empanada with chimichurri, and a hummus and pita plate. Everything was tasty and the portions were definitely filling. I agree with some other reviews that mentioned the pastrami was cut a little thick; while tasty, it was sometimes tough to bite through. My coworkers also got some brews to try, which they enjoyed. The service was friendly and prompt and it was a nice spot to hang out and enjoy some good food. The Happy Hour menu also looked like there were some great deals!

I had a long way to travel on Hwy 395. Driving for several hours in a day is tiring, and you look forward to the rest stops for refreshments. My travel companion and I stopped to try a wee dram of the Scottish Ale and a basket of fries. I enjoyed the Scottish Ale a lot! Very robust and bursting withalt flavor. The fries were fresh and piping hot and so good, as well. I would've liked to have spent a couple of hours there , but we had to press on with our journey.

A favorite when visiting Bishop, CA. Located toward the south of the main town & on the east side of SR395. Beers are tasty. Business is family friendly. We split the Rambler burger & it was awesome! Home-made ice cream made daily. Friendly staff. Worth a stop if you're in Bishop. Our awesome servers were Laila & her co-worker

Hamburger
Kate P.

I live in Bishop and have been here quite a few times. The food is always good and I like to sample the beers. It can be crowded and noisy, especially on music nights. Not my style. Today, 11:30 am on a Sunday, the restaurant is hopping, but not crowded. Definitely pleasantly quiet. I am watching two men playing chess and several families enjoying their lunch. We got the soup of the day (chicken tortilla) + grilled cheese and a hamburger with fries. Just a tiny tasted of the stout. The soup was delicious. Nothing fancy. I like that. I could have gone without the grilled cheese. The soup was enough. The hamburger was as expected. The stout was a dessert drink. Very sweet and chocolate. The staff said many people order my size as dessert. We got the homemade ice cream. Very good. A nice finish. You can split it. Overall a pleasant lunch.

There's many options available as well. They also have seasonal beers which is cool. I really enjoyed the burger. The meat had good flavor. Wish they offered fries. I will keep returning. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the brews. Service was good. They let me try a few beers to make sure I liked it. They also answered my questions on flavor and I found the right brew for me.

We strolled into Rusty's (we really have an eye for great bars) and were welcomed by a group of elderly men and a woman all grabbing drinks after a day of fishing (so cool). Despite our SoCal looking vibes, the bartender and folks inside were very nice. Cold drinks were served, conversations were shared, and shots were consumed. What more could you ask for? This bar was so awesome that we came back every night with our friends. By the time our trip was over we felt like long time locals as we were greeted by the bartenders and the familiar faces of the nights before. Good times were had, great memories were made. We'll be coming back (;

September 7, 2026 - Mammoth Lakes, CA…read more Great dog-friendly outdoor seating, friendly staff, and a menu with some surprisingly good finds. The outdoor patio is located next to a busy street, so there is a fair amount of activity and noise, but that really did not bother me. We stopped in for an early lunch, and I started with a glass of J. Lohr Pinot Noir. What a pleasant surprise--a really good glass of Pinot for just $9. We also ordered the Damn Good Burger, which lived up to its name. But the Bang 'n Shrimp ($17) completely stole the show. Crispy shrimp tossed in spicy Sriracha mayo, lime, cilantro, green onion, and sesame seeds. Spicy, tangy, crispy, and ridiculously addictive. I'm not saying I was still thinking about those shrimp hours later, but...I was. Add in the dog-friendly patio and friendly service; this is definitely a place we'd stop at again.

Can't ask for much more than that. The goat cheese flatbread was our favorite. It was really filling and had so much flavor. We also had the burrata, which was also good but not our favorite. We kind of hoped the bread would be sliced thinner and toasted like at other places we've tried but it was still okay. Can get busy in the afternoon so recommending coming before dinner rush.

The food is decent, it's never going to absolutely wow you but it will be sufficient and well priced.

The ordering system is great and straightforward, you order and pay on your phone and then food appears straight to your table! Genius, convenient and perfect for groups as there's no splitting the bill awkwardly at the end. And the dog friendliness is so clutch, our pups always enjoy the sunshine and rest. Really great spot I would recommend in a sea of terrible touristy Mammoth dining establishments.
