Love OSPH! Casey has a great rotating tap selection, along with wine, soda, non-alcoholic options. The place is comfortable and inviting, with various seating options - bar, couches, tables. There's a patio out front to enjoy nice days, and a pool table in the back. OSPH also has the nicest/cleanest ladies room I've ever used in a bar. There's Karaoke some nights, and trivia on Wednesdays. I love Old Sonoma. read more

I play here often on tour and they really got a great thing going! The folks are really chill and enjoy live music! I'm performing here tonight, and come on out if you enjoy punk rock, psychobilly or power-pop! read more

Saturday, November 13th around 5pm Party of 6 people My group wanted to do one last stop before heading home. Someone yelped and picked this place. It wasn't very busy, so we quickly ordered a round of four beers (two of us didn't drink) and grabbed a seat at one of their lounge-y couches and tables. I'm not a big beer drinker, but the bartender heard me say I like belgian whites, so he suggested the North Coast Pranqster: Belgian Blonde, 7.6 ABV. (The menu says $8, but then $7 in pink, so I'm not sure how much this was.) The beer was nice and I enjoyed our time here. Very laid back vibe. Altogether, our bill was $31 for the 4 drinks including tip, so not a bad place to throw back a couple of beers and catch up with some friends. read more

Olde Sonoma Public House - Our Round of four beers: Total was $31 including tip - Pubs Near Me - Sonoma, California

Local watering hole....Yep! Even during this not so fun Pandemic Olde Sonoma Public House has been open for those needing a delicious beer. While some may prefer to call this a dive bar, I honestly can't pin that name on it, I prefer it more of a staple for Boyes Hot Springs! I have been in too many times to count and honestly while sometimes were not as great as others, that is fine as I was just grabbing beers with friends and family. Olde always offers a wide selection of beers, so do not expect to show up and only see local offerings, they offer beer from all over the world with plenty of flight options and great prices! Best part is pairing your pub experience with some local authentic Mexican food next door to be honest, perfect combination! Hope Olde continues their reign as the go to pub for international and local beer experiences. read more

Olde Sonoma, loved it! They don't have a formal bar in aspect to mixed drinks like cocktails etc. However if beer and cider are your thing than definitely worth coming here. I was suggested the Jeremiah Tie which is a delicious mix of a few ciders has a sour apple vibe to it, crispy if that explains it? The bar tender was friendly and the ambiance laid back and fun. I felt like it was a bunch of old friends getting to together. Non pretentious and definitely worth going to. read more

An amazing stop! The service was friendly and there was a huge selection of beer/cider available. It did not disappoint. They have dart, pinball, and pool to keep it lively! This is a great local spot and I highly recommend! read more

Unpretentious, great beer selection, fair prices, fifty cents for a game of pool (!), pinball machine, and *real* dartboards. And cookies! My kinda place. Bartender Jeff was great. read more

Just beer and wine. But oh so many delicious selections! Happy hour $2 off. Friendly atmosphere and free delivery from the Mexican restaurant next door. $14 chicken nachos made a yummy dinner along with our double hazy IPAs. read more

I hate to leave poor reviews!!!. BUT here we are.. to start, being a craft beer junkie I LOVE the draft list with very fair pricing including HH 4-6pm daily!! AND, I'm completely good with dive bar status, as such.. I'm used to 'East Coast' and other servíce standards, but being refused a Flight and Insisting full pour ONLY with terse expletive isn't warranted. We did get our flight and experienced completely epic service from maybe the owner and others accommodating us.. one pool table, coin-fed and popcorn on the house.. Come for beer and dismiss moods from employees that maybe didn't want work the shift. I was hoping for more when epic beer is on tap!! Respectfully, my wife refuses to come back.. 'servíce turned craft beer sour!!' read more

Olde Sonoma Public House - Fun and amazing spot for a stress free environment - Pubs Near Me - Sonoma, California

The husband and I got to experience this place from a Groupon purchase. We came in on a sunny Saturday afternoon around 1 p.m. There wasn't a lot of customers but those who were there seemed like regulars. They had 32 different beers on tap. Our Groupon allowed us to sample six four ounces. They give you a little piece of paper to write down which ones you would like to taste and as you write the guy behind the counter begins to fill each little glass. We really enjoyed this place because of the laid back atmosphere. The bartender didn't bother us or push us to purchase a beer. There is old school rock playing in the background. A little game room behind the wall that housed a pool table, darts and pin ball. read more

Friendly staff, 32 choices for beer, live music and sketch artist in house making the vibe so relaxing and cool.

Literally, my favorite place on earth. This spot is amazing. It feels like you are in your living room, just with more taps and bottles of beer to go! The owners are awesome! The staff is amazing! You are lucky if you get to visit this place! read more

This place has an odd selection of beers, why have I not heard of some of these! Service is clicky, meaning they won't really ask you what you'd like, you have to wait till they have your undivided attention. Multitasking may be an issue for the beertenders here. I find that in taprooms, service can sometimes be spotty when the beertenders don't have more serving experience and personality. But the ambiance is like a cool tavern, an escape from all the tasting rooms and wineries all around the town of Sonoma. Overall, nice venue, decent service and new beers to add to my repertoire. 4/5 read more

Where my Nantucket Handshake virginity was taken... Going to basically a beer ONLY place means I'll just sit there and be sober, but thanks to the lovely bartender I was able to partake with the homies. A Nantucket Handshake - Pino Grig topped with Apple Cider! It was refreshing and delicious! Top that off with ordering and delivery of Mexican food from next door and I was a happy gal! Beer connoisseur I am not, but I can safely say this is an amazing, random spot for those of you, especially snobby, beer drinkers - this place has something like 32 beers on tap, a plethora in bottles, and tons of beer paraphernalia. I don't drink beer, but I'd come back here any day! read more

Olde Sonoma Puclic House had a name like a sammie place. .WRONG! it's a pub. wide open ones with lots of draughts. just my luck. wasn't gonna drink and drive. noticed referigator with brews inside. asked if they had off sale beers. YES! told them stout my fave. Brew: "Iron Springs" Sless' Oatmeal Stout" (8), 22 oz. -winner of gold medal, '08, '14m fairfax, ca, (marin county) "a silky harmony of dark roasted malts & oatmeal" 7.5%, 26 ibu's. just waiting.for tonight to pop the cap and tastes the goods. "a rich opaque stout with toffee and coffee notes" yep, truly is. strong stout, buzzed early. oatmeal m.i.a. on draught: -a brew for special occasions or that spicy Q. good american brew.- price comparable to samuel smiths. hey! who needs the brits? buy local! *profiles different, Sless more stout than oatmeal 4.2 stars -bartender said he had a hand in making this. CONGRATS! sorry i doubted the gold medal, my bad! -Public House has a large space to party in, various microbrews on draft available, saw pics, didn't have time to check it out. read more

Came here a few weeks back. I was excited by the rave reviews, but unfortunately, my experience was less than stellar. I was excited to see their list of craft beers on tap, but out of all of them, none really stood out. We did 2 tasters of 6 different beers, and nothing was really that great. I didn't even end up ordering a pint. They also have about 5 or more beers that are not craft beers. It was a warm day, so we sat on their "patio" which was dirty, filled with ash trays, and a bunch of smokers. The bartender wasn't very knowledgeable about the beers on tap or all that friendly. I guess if you like dive bars this is your place, but I won't be back, and I know the other 7 people in my group felt the same way. read more

What a gem. Grate selection of beer. Sparkling wine selection is quite good. Pool table. Darts. Pinball. So many fun things to do. Definitely a local hang out, so the people watching can be quite fun. The new management has made some great changes. The ladies room alone is amazing. Probably the nicest one in Sonoma. Bartenders are friendly and quite the characters. They have great beer knowledge. One of the few places that still has a happy hour from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm EVERYDAY. Give it a try, you'll want to keep coming back. read more

Loved to find this place. We stumbled upon this place when a person we were considered sharing a living situation with suggested we meet him here. Was pleasantly surprised. The person behind the bar was very helpful and even admitted that none of the current selections fit what type of beer I was looking for. I wanted something super hoppy but not too bitter, though not sweet either. They had just run out of Lagunitas IPA the day or so before, and I wasn't in the mood for a Racer 5. She had me try several to get me interested in something else that they did have. Worked great! Found another beer I was in the mood for, a nice unfiltered wheat. We were there in an early afternoon on a week day and even then it was decently stocked with people. There was still ample bar and table seating though. Once our meeting was done we moved to the bar from a table and grabbed another pint. Great craic! So many fun people to chat with. We noted how they let you bring in food from the place next door, or really from anywhere since they don't have a kitchen and they want you to stay and drink more beer! Cool! We were instant fans of this place! If we're in the area again, we're so stopping at this place for a pint. Love the awesome selection. If anything, I've been to other places with just as awesome of a selection, however these places are all spread out and few and far in between. I am so stoked to find another! Sooooo refreshing to find a place where the locals chill in Sonoma that is unpretentious unprecocious and just a good ol' time with a pint. read more

Olde Sonoma Public House - This is todays selection of brews! Love this place already. Reasonably priced pints. For the town of Sonoma, that rocks. - Pubs Near Me - Sonoma, California

Wish I could give this place 6 stars. Jeremiah is an absolute blast such a nice guy. Casey is freaking amazing. Absolutely love their bar and everything that goes along with it. Pool table darts jukebox and some of the best beers you'll ever have. read more

This place is great. I am in town for work and the first thing I look for is a good craft beer spot. They have an excellent tap selection here as well as some great local bottles. Us east-coasters always have a soft spot for Pliny, the first IPA you had to try! They have a fridge stocked and you can drink on premise or take out. Prices are good 500ml IPA bottle on premise was $7.00. I was happy. The only thing that may be disappointing for some is that there is no food served here, however there is a nice Mexican spot next door that will not only let you pick up and bring their food, but tell them you are next door and they will deliver it to you. The bartender and customers were friendly and provided me some information about Lagunitas Brewery in Petaluma which I will be visiting. Didn't spend too much time here as I am super busy, but since I'm here for a month, I know I will return. Awesome craft beer bar and would compete in any city. Dropping down a star because I drank three beers and they charged me for four then questioned me when I asked about it. Skip this joint and head to Santa Rosa. read more

Good selection of brews and nice local atmosphere. TouchTunes jukebox and various furniture are nice and modern. Not that many seats by the bar. Taproom is definitely a great place to enjoy cold beers avoiding the hot Sonoma climate. Location is convienent. Perhaps go see a movie at the theater nearby? Whatever... If you like taprooms and happen to be in Sonoma, this place is worth a visit. Cheers! read more

My partner & I stopped into this spot after a day of wine tasting because he's not much of a wine drinker. This place wowed us with its list of delicious & diverse craft beers & it's unpretentious dive bar feel. One of my absolute favorite stops back from Napa Valley wine tasting. read more

I found this place through Groupon. Service was quick. This looks to be a place that locals like to hang out at. With the Groupon, I enjoyed a beer sampler of six beers. I really liked the strawberry lager, which tasted like strawberry cream. I would come back again if I'm in the area. read more

If you are looking for a low key watering hole which is light years way (but geographically close) to the "Sonoma Square " scene, Olde Sonoma is your place. The owners clearly have honorary Ph.D's in brewcraft, as the beer selections are second to none. Yes they have the big names, but look for the one-offs and the seasonal offerings- you won't be disappointed! Extra bonus: you can get better than average Mexican food delivered from the Taqueria next door. A fine IPA with a fine taco is a beautiful thing! read more

Great beer! Great bartenders! Great location! Great popcorn! Great wifi! I always love my visits to this local gem! Get there. You will be glad you did! read more

I love and support all the brewpubs here in Sonoma Valley... However, no one, until now has ventured to this side of town... Set right in the South end of Boyes Springs in the Fiesta Plaza Shopping Center is "Olde Sonoma Public House"! Now, if you've been there, you have probably seen me there, because I very much enjoy the atmosphere... Not only are the employees friendly, the clientele is energetic and having a good time... With 32 beers on tap, surely there is something you like being served... If you haven't tried any of the beers (which I doubt) you can have a sampler of 6 or just taste one or two to help you decide... The great thing is, they are always changing the beers around, so every time you go, there is probably something new you haven't tried, or even ever heard of... Coley is so knowledgeable when it comes to beer; he is a mixologist of sorts... Tell 'em what you want and he will concoct something from 2 or more beers - Sounds weird, but awesome! They also have a very wide range of pricing for their beers, anywhere from $2 - $10 for a pint... (Something good will fit your budget) There is so much to do here also.. They have 2 dartboards, a pool table (FREE), jukebox, and FREE wi-fi... What more could you ask for... :) lets get some tourney's going! Light food is served, like hot dogs and popcorn... But they encourage you to bring in your own.. Right next door is a little Mexican Food joint, and across the street Mary's Pizza Shack... A little ways down also is Essan Thai... He also has a folder of menus that you can look thru and order out from the near-by restaurants... Last but not least, Coley and Jo are awesome business owners who are there for the community... They live close by, and really understand what this area of town needs! Congrats to the success! With all that said - If you haven't been here yet... GO! You will not be disappointed... -- Tell em Chenoa sent u! read more

Five stars for this lovable, cozy dive bar. It's beer only but they always have the best beer selection in Sonoma. 30 beers on tap, excellent local stuff, imports, hard-to-finds. Plus a generous selection of bottled and canned beer. Every bartender on the staff is friendly & hilarious. Great people working there, nice regulars. Free popcorn. Good stuff. You can BYO food and the taqueria next door (just meh) will serve you in the bar. Mary's will deliver for free, too. read more

This place is the best bar in on target!!!!!!! Number one taps in the whole entire town. Ask for Coley

With 32 beers on tap (always from my favorite west coast and international breweries), there's almost no reason to make use of the well- chosen wine list. This is a pub so there's no hard liquor served, which means that the local, friendly hangout-and-have-a-chat vibe lingers well into the night. This is a good place to bring your friends or a date after going to see a movie. If you tire of the pool table, there's always some darts or pin ball to occupy your time until the game comes on. Every Thursday there's live music ranging from indie/bluegrass to hard rock: whatever the lical music scene has to offer. This pub has a coffee house atmosphere and great staff. The local ownership should be proud of their well-nourished establishment. And prices are great for any budget, with such a wide selection of brews. read more

Came here with a friend. Nice place...bartender was singing in the karaoke...which kinda sucked when we were waiting for beers...but he sang Billy Joel...and was great. It was nice to see him having some fun and he still managed to take care of us within good time. Locals bar....didn't feel like an outsider. Not where I would want a nice divey kinda bar......in a shopping center. But whatever, it happens to be here. Worth a shot...lots of beers on tap and they know a lot about what they stock. read more

This isn't a bar, it's a taproom and it's very good. Went here on a slow Tuesday afternoon, didn't expect to see it is a strip mall but was pleasantly suprised by the outcome. I came here for a good craft beer selection and this definitely blew away my expectations. Most places with this many taps you might expect the whole line from breweries, 3 or 4 taps from a handful of breweries, so you are still limited to only a few choices but this wasn't the case. Coley has great selection, over 20 different breweries easily are represented on his 32 taps and it's not just the standard stuff, a lot of it is stuff that is only available at the brewery or beers you haven't heard of. Great selections of big IPA's, which is what we came for. Stayed here for about an hour and a half with my girlfriend, Coley was awesome and gave us tasters of about 5 or 6 beers, enjoyed a few pints and some nachos from next door, seriously can't wait to go back. Also this place isn't for the casual drinker of bud and coors, you won't see it in the building (Thank God!). read more

We stumbled into the Olde Sonoma Public House after doing some wine tasting in Glen Ellen. What a great surprise. The beer selection was out of the world. Some real gems on there. And to top it all off, Coley and Jo are two of the nicest and most knowledgeable bar owners I have ever met. I'm definitely stopping by here whenever I'm in Sonoma. read more

Very few bars can boast such a wide selection of good beer. While PBR on tap was kind of odd, I was very pleased with the rest of the menu. David was our bartender & was very helpful in suggesting some beers from the 40+ to choose from. While they do not serve food, there's a taco shop next door & you can bring it in. So, if you're looking for a fun place with GREAT BEER, pool, & comfy couches, definately check out this place. read more

Excellent place. Can't ask for much more after you go to this joint. I will return here often and anytime I'm in the area. read more

Landed here when staying at a nearby air bnb. Such a great selection of beer on tap. Our bartender, Jeremiah was so fun and hooked us up with so many innovative beer combos! I don't usually stray from the IPA family but man, he introduced my taste buds to so many wonderful flavors. If you're in the area do yourself a solid and stop in. read more

Stopped by here on a quiet Tuesday night. Jeremiah couldn't have been a more hospitable bartender and host. He graciously offered us some samples and made excellent recommendations. We ordered a quesadilla next door and they delivered it to us. Giants game was on. Beer was cold. Food was hot. Bartender super nice. Win win win. read more

Locally known as "The Pub" Olde Sonoma Public House is unlike any other, it's better! With thirty two ((cold)) beers on tap, local wines and bottled beers to enjoy on site or to go, Coley and Jo Thinnes have created an incredibly friendly, comfortable and welcoming place for locals and visitors alike to share great beer and make new friends. Olde Sonoma also has on hand four large televisions, multiple dart boards, a pool table, a pin ball machine,table games, free popcorn, and a very entertaining crew! It's not uncommon to see local patrons sharing their musical or culinary talent with everyone. Potluck feasts during sporting events turns this Pub into your living room away from home. As they say "come for the beer stay for the people" , I couldn't agree more. Five stars! read more

This place is great. I was here a couple of nights ago to meet some friends. Their beer variety is amazing and the energy is chill and fun. The Mexican restaurant next door will deliver to you if you're hungry. I've also had Mary's across the street deliver food to the outdoor patio. Dogs are welcome in the patio area which is great for all of you pet parents. The patio is smoke friendly which is a rarity but if smoke bothers you there is still plenty of space inside to sit and not be around it. I'm not a Beer Connoisseur. I don't care what the alcohol content is and I don't think that PBR is beneath me. Even not being very knowledgeable about Beer, I've never once been intimidated. The very first time I came in, I told them that I wanted something "that drinks like a Coors Light" and they didn't treat me like I was a bother, stupid or as if they were offended. They have also made some great suggestions and let me try little sips to see if I like something. I'm proud to say that they have helped me over the months to expand my beer horizons. Cheers! read more

Fun, comfortable place to stop in and grab some drinks, and grab some food from next door. Met up here with some friends for the first time on a saturday night. Not super busy, but definately not empty. Asked the 'beertender' a smooth but flavorful beer, and he suggested the Ally Cat Ale. Gave it a try, and it was exactly what i was looking for. So just based on that, these guys know what they are doing. Which is nice for a change :) Will definately come back here again, try out some good beers, and enjoy some good conversation with friends. Only downside: The couches that they provide are really uncomfortable. You can feel all the springs and the frame. I'd suggest they get a more 'solid' or firm couch, so then their customers dont sink into the couch, and have no support to sit and enjoy a cold beer. read more
