Fantastic family-friendly spot with great beer and healthy options! We visited Monterey for a family trip and stayed at the Portola Hotel. This brewery was just a short walk away, and it was the perfect find! The staff were incredibly friendly and upbeat, making us feel welcome right away. They were especially great with our kids. We tried a flight of 9 different local craft beers, and every single one was delicious. Plus, the prices were very reasonable for the quality! The food was a pleasant surprise. Usually, brewery food can be quite heavy, but they had plenty of vegetable options. It felt great to have a healthy meal that was still seasoned perfectly to pair with the beers. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back! read more

3/3 - Portola Hotel & Spa Started the evening at Jack's where Juan made an excellent Cadillac margarita -- absolutely delicious. After that, we headed over to Peter B's to watch the game, where Alex the bartender greeted us and made us feel welcome. It didn't make much sense to have live music at a sports bar on game night, but Zack was really great and did a fantastic job. Victoria and Spencer were amazing -- attentive and friendly throughout the night. Andy, the busser, kept everything spotless -- no dirty dishes left on the table. Overall, a fun night with great service all around. read more

Food: Good soul food. Good menu, good options for veg and non veg folks. Service: Rossi was a superb host, always wearing a smile, friendly, giving great suggestions on the menu and she definitely knew how to have conversations with kids, encouraged them every time and they actually finished their plates well. Ambience: Upscale sports bar vibes, great ambience. Good seating arrangements. Cheerful and festive vibes. Restrooms: Very clean and well kept! Parking: Garage near by, no issues. read more

Located just outside of the Portola Hotel and Spa, and offered both indoor and outdoor dining. Loved the relaxed atmosphere and live music. Our waitress was incredibly nice, but maybe a little too comfortable. She was at our table for longer conversations than we had energy for and if we hadn't been traveling all day, we might have felt differently about it. She even stayed to watch us try a dish then lingered for more conversation. She later placed a hand on my daughter's back, which we recognize is a way of communication for some people, but it made my daughter uncomfortable. The restaurant had an extensive list of beers so I ordered a flight of catrina, no maiden, sakura and spice lab 4. Of the 4, I liked Sakura the most and spice lab the least. We ordered their Kobe sliders, clam chowder, California club and shrimp ceviche. The Kobe sliders weren't spectacular, but they tasted good. Juicy and seasoned. The clam chowder looked and tasted like prepackaged soup. I guess I expected better given the area we were in. The California club was the winning dish. The bread was lightly toasted, but still soft and ingredients tasted fresh. The shrimp ceviche was"wow" and not in a good way. Overall, the dish needed seasoning and heat. The sliced radish tasted as though it was pickled in dish water. One bite and whole dish was ruined. We paid $115.87 with tip which was incredibly reasonable, but don't think we would make a return visit. read more

Bomb dot bomb with a side of holy sh** that's delicious! We've been coming here for years and we're so glad to see them back up and running again with even better dishes and recipes! Good job guys! This hungry local approves and highly recommends!! They've got take out options available as well as a dining area, bar, and outdoor seating. Staff is absolutely amazing and super personable. Go here!! And you HAVE to try their Cheese Curds. read more

Came here for their soft opening with family friends of the hotel manager and it was excellent! Everything we ate was delicious, with fun twists on classics that elevated the dish (like a goat cheese fritter with the strawberry salad and bacon/crab/corn clam chowder). The standouts were definitely the lobster Mac and cheese and the berry crumble tart, but you can't go wrong with any choices! The drinks were excellent too with a great selection of beer and cocktails. Marvin was a great and attentive server and Rebecca, the restaurant manager, came and talked to us for a while and was so sweet. Overall, incredible experience and a great opening! P.S. the 9-layer cake is HUGE (but oh so delicious ) read more

Angel, Coleen and Alex are also great at helping us with our orders. The service is aways spot on. The happy hour food is a great deal & the Mexican lager is smooth and refreshing. read more

Limited review as I only went there for drinks shortly before closing. Place looks modern and clean. Good selection of beer. The food menu did look good, but we didn't have anything to eat. This may be a seasonal thing, but we were staying at a hotel nearby for work and could not visit this place until Thursday! It was closed MON-WED. Also, seems like most places in Monterrey close at 10pm, Peter B's not being the exception. read more

Great service, plenty of menu options. Remodeled interior is much more friendly and open. Service personnel are thoughtful, and conscientious. Both service and kitchen preparations have improved from years past. read more

Went to happy hour August 1st. First time back since they remodeled the place. A bit disappointed w/the chicken wings. They weren't that great. If you had the previous "wing man", these are definitely not it, (lol) it's a wet rub. U get 4 wings for $5. The ahi & cheese curds were the best thing I ate on HH. Had a couple mango ciders during HH & those were great. The layout is definitely different from previous. Can't really see the tv if you're sitting against the wall which is disappointing. Bright side is that the place looks more open & spacious.. downside is u might want to sit at the bar to get a better view of a game while grabbing a cold one! read more

We had dinner here last night, mostly because we saw that they were dog friendly and I wanted a beer. They allow dogs inside and of course outside, if you have your furry friend with you, this is the perfect spot. Spencer, our waiter, was so awesome. He was so helpful not only with the menu but also with recommending us a breakfast place for the next morning. The place looks amazing, is clean and sleek. We sat outside on one of the round tables with a fire pit in the center, it was a vibe. I had the classic burger and my fiance had the sweet heat sausage pie. The food and the beer was great, no complaints there. The restrooms were so clean, that was a shock from a brewery. Definitely making a stop here next time we're in town. read more

Good cheese curds, like a spiced up bite-sized mozzarella stick. The Pretzel and Sausage with cheese and mustard was a miss. The cheese sauce was flavorless and oily. The mustard was great and the pretzels were soft, but the sausage was dry and unpleasant to eat. I tried it with both dips and without, but it was beyond help. read more

Just popped in to visit some friends at the bar. Wasn't too loud, though live music was going to start soon, not sure if that was overwhelming or not. We left before they started. Nice vibe. Mixture of high tables and regular tables. They had a good looking happy hour menu. Hope to come back again and try it. read more

Great atmosphere, good service, and okay food. I would come back to sit by the fire and watch the game. Don't expect 5 star service/food. You won't get it here but that okay. read more

Plenty of TV's so you won't have to worry about missing a game. The food was tasty, drinks are even better. They had a self serve popcorn machine near the bar area that was cool! Would definitely visit here again next time. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Decided to try this restaurant and bar and it ended up being a great choice. We came during happy hour at night 9-10PM on a Friday and I expected it to be packed but it was not at all. We were kindly greeted and quickly seated. A big shoutout to our server Justin, he was extremely attentive, kind, and helpful. Forgot the drink names but they were good and strong. We got 2 items off the happy hour menu: cheese curds, and mango habanero wings. Both were fire, especially for the price of 5 dollars each. My gf got the classic cheeseburger which she liked, but I was not too big a fan of it. I got a pepperoni pizza which I was craving and it hit the spot real nice. Pretty solid portions. 4 food items and 2 drinks with tip included came out to about $105. There was a good vibe in there and everyone seemed to be having a good time. Overall, no complaints at all and would definitely come back. read more

Great food, great service and a great experience! Went with my boyfriend and his mom and had Victoria as a server, she was excellent! We had been having a rough afternoon trying to find somewhere that accepted dogs, and decided to try Peter B's. They were so friendly and even had options on the menu for dogs to eat too. We got a few appetizers and were all highly satisfied. I'm still thinking about how good the fried pickles were! Highly recommend! read more

Came here on a whim to take cover from the cold and watch the game. The happy hour deals are plentiful and a great value. I had the Kobe sliders and my husband had the smashburger. Both were excellent. Aside from the food, I can't say enough about the service. Robert and Luke went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. Such friendly service. read more

Saturday night Peter b's was a enjoyable night I had the best bartender I think his name was angel he show me All the cocktails and beers that the place offered and the menu, he was really attentive to make my drink and the food was quick and amazing. read more

Rossi was amazing! Our 1st time to Monterrey and 1st time to Peter B's. She was kind, professional, and extremely helpful. Her recommendations were spot on and would go back not only for the great food, but she made the experience one of the best! It was busy, (Super Bowl Sunday) and we never ran out of drinks etc. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Angel is a great bar tender. We enjoyed our time throughly!!!! Will be back (: thank you!!!!!!

Nice happy hour from 4-6pm and 9-10pm. We tried a beer flight, Gilroy garlic fries, and the bf had the Kobe sliders. Beer flight: 4/5 - we got a nice selection, it was good. Gilroy garlic fries: 2/5. Needs some work and def more garlic. Too oily and lacked a garlic flavor. Kobe sliders: 4.5/5. He would order it again. He loved chipotle aioli sauce with the grilled onions on the sliders. Server: 5/5 - Didn't catch his name. We came in late and he was so helpful with our questions. He said he wasn't old enough to drink when we asked for beer recommendations but he still made some since we asked lol. He was super friendly and kind! Great service! read more

I am visiting the area with my boyfriend and some friends for my birthday. We wanted to find a place to go for a group of 7 and noticed that Peter B's had a barrel room that was available by reservation. We reached out to them multiple times to try to reserve this space and it was very tedious & got redirected about 3 times to different people to make the reservation. It was 8 days out that we tried to make this reservation, so we weren't trying to do this last minute. Someone finally responded to us through email and confirmed the reservation 5 days before the reserved date. We asked what we would need to provide once we arrived the day of the reservation and no one responded at all even though it had already been confirmed. Unfortunately we had 2 people from our party cancel last minute (1 day before the reserved date), so we called the restaurant to ask if this space would still be available for us and the lady on the phone had no idea about our reservation so she asked the manager. When she got back on the phone she said that no one had confirmed a reservation for that room and that it is only reserved for larger parties, so we would not be able to dine there. This place does not take reservations for their regular dining area either, so we are just SOL and have to find another place last minute because I refuse to dine at a place that can't get it together. They clearly don't want our business with how difficult this whole situation has been, so we will go elsewhere. read more

Seated right away at the bar. Bar tender was nice, even changed our Tv to the Trailblazer game. Good banter with the bartender to help me understand what I should eat and the portion size. The club sandwich was delicious and the onion rings were top shelf. This is a classy sports bar. Lots of TV with sports on every one of the screens. Background music was good, not too loud, was able to have a conversation without yelling. Would visit again. read more

While I was seated quickly, unfortunately, the service was quite slow. While the staff was friendly, the overall experience was underwhelming. The poke was just average, nothing special. Overall, it was a disappointing visit. read more

At least it had character before the remodel with wood throughout and multi levels. Now it looks like a food court or college cafeteria with wide open seating and bland colors. Toasted bread on club sandwich was cold and had to be sent back. And if you're looking for the nostalgic popcorn machine, it wasn't there this Monday night. The server was nice, attentive, apologetic for the cold bread and offered to get something else or tell the chef, but he was the only good thing about the visit. read more

Came here for Sunday football, and it was the perfect spot. The bar was packed, but we snagged a booth with views of multiple TVs, and they quickly put on the Packers game for us. Started with a pineapple mimosa, then a flight of their strongest beers--*dangerously* tasty. The steak was small but decent, and the garlic fries? Greasy, garlicky perfection. Service was great, and overall, it's an awesome spot for drinks, food, and footbal read more

Popped in here once everyone arrived in town for my birthday trip, thinking a brewpub would have something for everybody. Bonus, we discovered we were there during happy hour, so the meal wouldn't even break the bank! We ended up getting a feast of happy hour items and... they ranged from okay to bad. Nothing really stood out as delicious and the wings were soggy and had more breading than chicken. We took our leftovers to our airbnb but ended up tossing everything. The beer was good though! And service was friendly enough and attentive. I'd suggest coming here for a beer and a chill atmosphere, but maybe skip the happy hour snacks. read more

Drinks were great, food was mediocre. The burger & fries was the only good thing we ate - everything else was just OK with very small protein portions. Kids meals are very, very small (for like a 4 year old) . Service was good and the bar itself has TVs everywhere with sound piped in. So not good for conversation, but great if you want to watch a game. read more

Came to have a drink at the bar and while we didn't order food we will come back. Very nice atmosphere or bartender Colleen was very nice and helpful. Made us feel welcomed! They have live music on Thursday. Definitely will be back! read more

Went in to watch the World Series. It was my first time back since the remodel. The place felt cozy and the upgrades were apparent. But it really comes down to the service and quality of the food. Jasmine was so hospitable in welcoming me and seeing that I was constantly content. The hazy was tasty and the appetizers were on point. I'll be back soon. read more

I came here for the happy hour drinks and snacks on two occasions, two days in a row. It was pleasing to have the same server both times too! Eddy was our server. He was funny and super nice! I came on a Friday night with my boyfriend for the late happy hour, and then again the next day in the evening on Saturday with a bigger group. I highly recommend happy hour- it's from 4PM-6PM, and 9PM-10PM everyday. The happy hour drinks were $7, which is pretty cheap for the area. The happy hour food was pretty good, and we liked how the calamari was nice and crispy. The next day for our second time, we tried a variety of the happy hour foods, and they did not disappoint. I enjoyed the sweet potato tater tots- it came with some sort of curry aioli. Super delicious and unique! There is patio seating, and a large table with a fire pit outside. They're pretty dog friendly too. Inside they have a popcorn machine where you can help yourself to snack on. Pretty clean bathrooms. read more

Came for happy hour (4-6pm) on a Wednesday night. Sat outside at a firepit table. They had live music from 6-9pm; Johan Sotelo was amazing. Shout out to our server, Eddy, who was awesome. They're a family friendly restaurant; we had our toddler with us, and there were other families there as well. They have hotel parking validated, but we found street parking nearby. From the happy hour we ordered - beer, cider, pepperoni pizza, calamari, and wings. It was a lot of food, and it was all delicious. Highly recommend to check this place out when you're in Monterey. read more

detroit style pepperoni pizza and calamari ciabatta sandwich were solid. very dog friendly as they allow you to bring your furry friends inside, which is truly amazing considering most restaurants enforce a service animals-only policy these days. they even offer your pup a bowl of water and some love. plenty of TVs and not a bad seat in the house to watch the game. underwent a classy remodel recently. while i miss some of the rustic charm from their longtime OG look and feel, they did a nice job opening up the space with that clean, modern aesthetic. read more

Brewpub located near our hotel, we made reservations for our party of 9 and were seated in a giant booth and was amazing. Buddy and I ordered some beer flights, the beers were solid the Donna Draper was pure thunder & I enjoyed the berry high dive. We ordered fried pickles, cheese curds and garlic fries to start, probably some of the best fried pickles I've ever had super crunchy really really good. I ordered the Calzone and the wife ordered the short rib ravioli we both finished our food despite being stuffed. Also one of our party ordered the super spicy burger and he said it wasn't remotely spicy. Good spot all the way around especially if you are staying right next door to it. read more
