Used to love this place and would go there a lot five years ago. I stoped going because of the same issue, the attitude, gave them another chance, but this will be the last.

It used to be an old neighborhood bar called Tabasco Beach in the 2000s/2010s and changed its name to The Beach then shut down a few years later. When I went in there's not a crowd and no hostess and had a sign on the blackboard telling patrons to seat themselves. Minutes later a tattooed and friendly waitress wearing a Selena shirt arrived to my table and took my order for a lemonade and the tiramisu french toast with a side of bacon. Everything was good. The french toast had thick slices like Texas toast . I'll return another time for supper.

Their beer is good but I honestly come more for the food and super friendly staff. I am one of those parents with a toddler but I keep him close or take him outside to get energy out. It is possible to have a toddler at a brewery who is not losing their mind and out of control. If he does start to have a meltdown we know it's time to go. It's my neighborhood brewery and has all the friendly feels. Check it out when you are looking for good food and a beer.

We enjoyed a sweet Italian bbq pizza and it was incredible, we had no trouble finishing the pizza in one sitting. Once you're past the outdoor aesthetic you're in for a real treat!

Beer: I can't remember what I had. Probably Come and Take It but I can't be sure. It's all good! Service has always been great. Tables are limited inside a small brewery. Pretty simple. Yes I'll be back! Beer & Pizza on Thursday

Came here for lunch - loved the atmosphere, fantastic playlist and service!…read more Could not enjoy their beers as it was a work lunch! Got the salad and pizza combo but so apparently did everyone else and with one person making the pizzas it was at least 35 minutes until we received ours and a good 20 minutes after we finished our salad - thankfully we had some time to spare! Salad was good - pizza good but for being prepared on the spot was okay - dough was a let down and it does not collapsed with Wild Barely or Pinthouse - good but not great!

On top of that, our waitress Hannah was awesome. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed the whole time. Overall, great food, great service, and I really appreciate the quality of the ingredients they use. I'll definitely be coming back!

Love the location! Heart of Southtown, near the Riverwalk and trails…read more After we rode a 20 mile bike ride, we were ready to grub down at Blue Star Brewing. A perfect day to eat outside , the six of us sat at an outdoor table. Our server was friendly and the menu had something for each one of us. We ordered fried mushrooms for the table and it came out pretty fast. The mushroom texture was kinda rubbery and others said the beer cheese dipping sauce had no flavor. We then put our drinks and lunch orders in. I really enjoyed the peach fruit geyser-beer. Thereafter, service went downhill. We noticed all customers that came and ordered after us were getting their food before we did. We were starving ! We had to flag down our server to find out was going on. After a long wait, our plates slowly started coming out. The turkey avocado BLT was pretty good- thick cut seasoned turkey, delicious thick cut bacon, I don't remember tasting much of the avocado, and I enjoyed the sourdough bread and fresh salad. Hubby had the chicken and waffles- he said it was ok- they were chicken tenders as opposed to fried chicken and the waffle was very dry. Food was just ok and service was very slow. Not sure we'll be back...

There is a huge parking lot and a sizable outdoor space, where there was a market going on with thrift clothes. On the inside was a cozy taproom with cool air and tons of natural light against the black walls. Alamo has a list of mainstays plus a small list of additional rotating beers. I went with their Vienna Amber Lager and followed it up with their Golden Lager. Both were solid beers. My dad enjoyed a KOTH Lager on tap before switching to the Vienna Lager as well, after my recommendation. It's a great spot, the bartenders are friendly and helpful, and it's close to where we usually get our haircuts, so we might start showing up here more often. RIYL: Quality beers in the 210.

Though it does get buggy. Private lot with one way movement. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here the day before thanksgiving and surprisingly it was pretty full. Saw people drinking beers, eating pizza, overall a happy place type of vibe. They do share a space with 2-1 Dough pizza so you can order a pizza with your beer. We weren't that hungry so we only go the beer. I wanted to try a bunch of their flavors but surpringly they only had 3 beers that they make in house AND one was tapped out. The rest of the beers are from other local or national breweries. I got the beer flight to try a little bit of each. They were out of their Amber ale, but they had their stout and their hazy ipa. I subbed the other two for local san antonio beers. The hazy and stout was great and I'm definitely curious to try their amber when I'm back. THE FINAL BAMBOO: A beer flight set me back around $18. I wish they had more of their own beers here but overall a decent brew spot.

Their bartenders are always so helpful and nice and ensure you have a good time. Solid margaritas on happy hour and of course the excellent beer from Künstler, a true gem in SA. This tap haus is super relaxed and comfortable. You can stop in drink inside, out on their porch or even take it to go around the park. You can also get six packs or other canned beers to enjoy. Sometimes they have food available but sometimes not. You may have to check ahead of time on their IG if they're serving food that day or not. Hopefully they can get that figured out because their food is actually really delicious. If not you can always go to their main brewpub location which isn't too far from this one.

The place is a true tribute to the Special Forces community, with the De Oppresso Liber flag hanging overhead, a POW/MIA flag, a wall of Longtab cans with names straight out of SF history, and a powerful portrait of Medal of Honor recipient MSG Roy Benavidez. As a retired fire service officer, I could feel the respect for service in every corner of the room. I started with the Quiet Professional IPA, and it lived up to its name. It poured a clean amber with a nice head and was smooth and easy to drink without being overly bitter. I paired it with the brat on a pretzel bun, topped with sauerkraut and mustard, with a side of sea salt and pepper chips. The brat was juicy, the pretzel bun held up perfectly, and the kraut and mustard were the right balance. The chips were crisp and well seasoned. Simple, hearty, and exactly what you want with a good IPA. I closed out the night with the Hearts and Minds Peach Ale, and it was a standout. Peach on the nose and definitely in the taste, with a bright, smooth finish. You can actually feel the peach fuzz at the end! A perfect last beer of the night. Friendly staff, great beer, solid food, and a place with real heart. I'll be back next time I'm in San Antonio.
