I ordered the pepperoni pizza with white sauce. Delicious! I loved the crust too. Wasn't floppy and had a nice crunch! I'd definitely order this again. Maybe next time I'll add sausage read more

Snowshoe Brewing Company - Pepperoni pizza with white sauce - Breweries Near Me - Arnold, California

Went to snowshoe years ago and it was only mediocre. Fast forward to this week and two ownership changes later. We decked to give it another chance. Well the good is that the food was fresh and hot and the service is super friendly. We went early and had the whole place to ourselves for a little while. We got the black and bleu hamburger and jalapeño sausage pizza. The burger was good but had this odd cranberry type sauce. It was great with the generous burger but the bun was like a bolillo roll. The pizza was with no traditional red sauce which we must have missed. The pizza was hot and tasty but not as expected. The beer was a bit flat and they had several crossed out on the menu. Seemed like an old tap. Overall I would say it hasn't changed much all these years. I would say it's as expected after all these years later. read more

Hard to call yourself a brewery when 7 out of the 10 beers on tap are unavailable. That alone should've been our cue to turn around and walk right back out. To make matters worse, the bartender completely disappeared into the back for about 12 minutes. No acknowledgment, no explanation, no "I'll be right with you." When they finally reappeared, they came out wobbling, with an awful demeanor and an overall vibe that was uncomfortable and wildly unprofessional. Absolutely nothing about the interaction resembled hospitality -- or even basic customer service. Between the barren tap list and the strange, unpleasant service, we decided to leave without buying drinks. We won't be back, and we certainly wouldn't recommend anyone go out of their way to visit this desolate establishment. Huge disappointment all around. read more

Great customer service, good food. My hubby spilled a beer on my pasta, and they made me a whole new plate at no charge. I greatly appreciated that! Wings, chili and pizza were good, especially for how remote they are. In the middle of summer, they had hot cocoa which made my kid very happy after getting doused in the cold river. I'd give the food 3 stars but the service 4+! read more

Snowshoe Brewing Company - Hot cocoa! - Breweries Near Me - Arnold, California

Nestled in picturesque Arnold California you will find this amazing hangout spot. Craft beers and tasty food can be found here. Myself I have been making the trip to Arnold for over 15 years just to get their Apricot wheat ale into my belly. The place has a stove for ambiance, dance floor, and a huge bar. They serve their craft beers on tap or you can buy some to go. The staff is super friendly and I always meet amazing humans when I stop by. Only closed on MONDAYS, so great for a weekend trip to the redwoods. read more

Snowshoe Brewing Company - Lunch menu - Breweries Near Me - Arnold, California

How do you call yourself a brewery when you dont have any of your beers on tap. This place has gone down hill and every time I come back it gets worse. They used to sell the beer in a 4 pack of cans and you used to be able to buy it at the local grocery store. Not sure how this place stays in business. read more

Visited this place on a very hot evening with our dog. We just wanted a couple beers, so I can't comment on the food menu. The brewery is dog-friendly, so we were able to sit outside with her in the backyard area. Lots of grass, picnic tables, and a big jug of water with some dog bowls. The waitstaff was very friendly and peppy. We had an IPA, which we thought was underwhelming, and the brown ale. The brown ale was tasty. We'd visit here again if we're in the area! read more

Walked in today to have lunch. There were a ton of people and their dogs waiting in the lobby. We decided it might be easier and faster to sit at the bar. The bartender seemed very stressed, she told us that she was very backed up with tables and that it was going to be a while before she could help us. Someone next to us was trying to order and asked if they had hot cider. The bartenders response was that yes they did but it wasn't anything special, it was out of a packet. She then told the same person that she'd get to him when she could, that she was way behind and needed to put some people's food orders in. We weren't the only ones waiting. The bartender had on one wet, soppy very unsanitary glove and one bare hand. She used both to make drinks, touch various items and did not wash. Very unprofessional, unsanitary and rude. read more

Great for our family. We always eat here when we visit Arnold. Every time food has been great. Service is friendly and people need to understand this isn't drive through. I love the decor. The menu has something for everyone. Burgers, pizza, sandwiches- and a dedicated kids menu with the greatest hits. read more

Apparently a new owner took over. Service was slow, we ordered the flight beer, and a bunch of appetizers. It was ok overall. Nothing spectacular, but it was food when I've been starving all day! read more

Stopped in for some brews since we were staying right across the street and it was super easy to walk over. We had the bison chili and we also ordered the snowshoe burger. Our bartender knew we wanted to split so she had the kitchen split the burger and fries on two plates and split the chili in two bowls. That was nice! We loved both dishes but honestly I've never had better chili, ever. I'm not really a chili person because it can vary so much so it's never consistent but on her recommendation, we ordered it. Very meaty and very tasty, not gamey, but just flat good. The burger was pretty standard but they didn't skimp on the meat. Was nice and juicy and really a very good burger. I just bumped them up from 4 to 5 stars because my mouth is watering again just writing this :) read more

I've only had two terrible dining experiences in Arnold. And they were BOTH here! The first time I had lunch with a friend. The service was poor, the food took way too long for an almost completely empty restaurant, and what finally arrived was mediocre at best. But what the heck. Maybe it was a bad day. I figured I should give them another shot and went for dinner with my family. The waitress ignored us for almost 15 minutes then finally took our order. Over an HOUR later we had received NOTHING and hadn't been checked up on once. It was almost humorous (if I didn't have two hungry kids). Finally had to walk to the waitress and tell her to forget it. Her only response was "it should only be a few more minutes." I explained that she took our order over an hour prior and we hadn't been checked on. So no review of what we might have eaten, but this was by far the worst service in town. I was able to drive to Big Trees Market, shop, go home and cook tacos for the family in under an hour. This place is the WORST! read more

Awesome food, service, and beer here. Love it during the snow season too. Such a cool spot!

You rock Maddie! We walked into Snowshoe Brewery after a hike on the Arnold Rim Trail (definitely recommend checking this adventure) feeling we had earned a well deserved beer. We waited just a moment and were seated outside ( we had our pups with us). Great Service: I have to say how impressed we were with our waitress, Maddie (sorry if the spelling is wrong)because even though it was just her and the owner holding down the fort she was nailing it. Very pleasant personality. Great Beer: Hubby ordered the Alpine but I was having a hard time deciding what to get and asked if they have flights. She said sure and because they only six brews on tap at the moment that's what she could bring. She also asked are the two of you sharing and hubby said no I'll still get the Alpine (22oz). Alright so I should have realized when she made the sharing comment .... I should have taken a moment to what that meant. So the samples are 4oz each. That's a substantial sampling. Great food: We shared a Blizzard speciality pizza. White sauce, sun-dried tomatoes ....yum! Definitely look forward to a future visit. read more

I got the steak sandwich with blue cheese and my buddy got a black and blue cheeseburger and it was like the best blue cheese, meat, I've had in a long time. I've seen other reviews where people are complaining that they're in a rush and that the service is slow and that is somewhat true but it's because they take their time to make your food right so if your kids are hungry and you need to eat in a hurry I suggest McDonald's, otherwise This is a place to chill and spend an hour. read more

Would have given it a zero, but have to at least give it a one. Went in on June 26 around 3 in the afternoon. No employee to be found. Yelled hello a few time, walked around the place, yelled hello a few more time, went by the kitchen entrance and yelled hello again, and finally knocked very loudly on the wall and nothing. I could hear people talking in the back. Maybe hard to hear me over the loud music in the back. Whatever. Explains why the parking lot was empty. Found another nice little pub in town that was nice, friendly, and understands great service. read more

We stopped by today and had a couple of beers. The young lady that was working was alone and having to deal with serving; the restaurant, the patio and the bar, also. She did an amazing job taking care of everyone by herself!! Excellent job for having a 14 month baby at home. Great job!! read more

Still rooting for this place to reach its potential, but alas, there is still a lot that needs to improve. One improvement is my last review is that the employees are at least trying. Also, the back "patio" space looks more inviting now. -Beer is mediocre at best. We are in a craft beer renaissance and there's tons of talented brewers. Snowshoe needs some consulting with one of them to revamp their process. The beers are generally just too cloyingly sweet. -Servers and kitchen staff are trying, but look skinny and unkempt. I know it's a mountain town, but there's a line between casual and a lobby, and snowshoe is over it. -The old carpet is disgusting - When we visited they were not understaffed, but the system of responsibilities was very inefficient and made things slower than necessary and more stressful on the staff. -Details such as the barely functioning cheap cornhole boards don't show that management wants to attract people. - The dining area on the right of the entrance, where the video games used to be, looks odd and out of place. Not to mention, unnecessary. When was the last time snowshoe needed that many tables? The old way with some video games there for kids was so fun for families. - Food is okay, but presentation is very low- brow for this type of place. It wouldn't take massive changes to make this place a magnet and an institution read more

Really good food. The chili by far is the best I have ever had. It's a very chill place with good beer/ drinks and a cool vibe and friendly staff. The steak sandwich was so tasty as well, the pizza we ended up having the next day and yep all was eaten. Only sad part was the kids mac n cheese. Honestly though if I lived there I would probably be a regular. read more

Absolutely lovely experiences every time in this establishment. Bartenders and waitresses are fun storytellers and leave me entertained. Waters and beers get filled up asap. Solid apps and pizza. Employee on aux plays bangers. Apricot beer shmacks and is the reason I habitually ride their comfortable and cushioned bar stool at this restaurant. One of their employees makes exquisite handmade artwork that showcases their specials. They play the important sports games. My truck battery actually died in the parking lot and their employees jump started my vehicle to make sure I got home safe. I have waited out snowstorms at this bar. Open floor plan with lots of natural lighting and view of meadow with outdoor seating. read more

Pasta and pizza were delicious! We were the only table there and our food took a little over 30 minutes. This was our third time here in the last two 1/2 years and the service is incredibly slow. Most people stopping by are on their way home and have a long drive with hungry kids. I wish it felt like they acknowledged that a little more. My husband ordered a growler at the end of our meal and we left him at the table for another 20 minutes (still the only customer) waiting for him in the car. Good food, horrible service. read more

8 minutes to be seated, half an hour plus to get the food, which was a bowl of bison chili for me, and a simple hamburger and fries. While we waited, the place filled up, and the waitress passed our table repeatedly without a peep of 'can I get you anything?', and she was telling people coming in they'd be waiting an hour to hour-and-a-half. For lunch. I finally went up to the bartender to close out our tabs with just my beer, and that's when we finally got some action on our lunches. My chili was good, hot and spicy, but I wouldn't say worth $16 per bowl. My friend's burger and fries, though, were cold. This place was listed as #2 of 14 Arnold-area restaurants. I wonder what the others are like. I wouldn't bring my appetite to the Snowshoe. read more

It's hard not to like this local brewery with super friendly staff! The beers are average, nothing super special, but for a such tiny alpine town I was just happy they had a brewery! We tried a flight, which was adorable and includes 4 house made beers plus 2 guest ciders. The best beers were probably the IPA and the Apricot Wheat, ciders were not good. The indoor ambiance is underwhelming, but there's a large outdoor area if you come in the warmer months. read more

It took over an hour to get our food! It's dead in here so not sure what took so long. Some of our burgers were on the cool side. and not completely done. We were by the kitchen and saw the cook put food in his mouth from a pizza he was making plus he was using a knife that was dirty from the previous pizza he made! not appealing when our food still hadn't gotten to us. We won't be back sorry! The waitress was very nice though with the pink hair! She was helpful and sweet! read more

Rooting for these guys, but disappointing experience. Cold inside, no heat. Blasting pop music. Seated for 20 minutes before we could order, but only three groups in the place. Overheard from the table to our right: "we've been here 20 minutes, are they going to take our order?" Table to our left just got up and left without ordering. They forgot to bring nachos, and when they arrive 2 minutes later they were basically just nacho cheese on chips with jalapenos. For $15 we were surprised. Had to get up twice, once to ask them to check on the missing nachos and again for the check. Under new ownership, and I hope they succeed. Dog friendly, which was nice. Owner was nice. Our experience was disappointing this time. read more

Had high hopes but was sorely disappointed. Snowshoe looks like it's about to go out of business. It's obviously under staffed. The bartender was doing everything from host, to server, food runner and making drinks. Inside was outdated, dusty and run down. The outside patio area looked dangerous with down market lights and over grown weeds. This place feels like it's on its last leg and is just waiting for the electricity to get turned off. read more

They are so slow. We waited 45 minutes for our food. When we asked what was taking so long the rude lady who claimed to be the owner was so rude and was laughing at me and threatened to call the cops on me. Do not eat here. read more

Called about 20 times to place a take n bake pick up. They don't answer. Lost my biz. Just another badly run restaurant in Arnold.

Came to checkout the Snowshoe now that there's new owners; the staff is very friendly and conscientious, and the food was delicious. I had the pizza; crispy crust, plenty of toppings and leftovers to take home. My husband had the chili loaded with cheese, onions and sour cream. The $35,00 bill was well worth the dinner. read more

To the owner: please sell this business to someone that can build what the community around here deserves . read more

A guy came to seat us right after we enter the restaurant. Waited for someone to come to our table, but nobody came. Not a peep. There were 3 tables with 4-5 people each, so semi busy but not too bad. Waited for 10 minutes to be served but no waiter/waitress came to serve our table. So we got up and left. I've been living here for the past 10 years and coming to Snowshoe so many times, but this never happened until the recent management change. Reduced menu, service non existing. Won't bother coming here again. read more

Two of us waited 20 minutes to put our order in. It took another 15 minutes to get our beer. The Thompson IPA was flat so we asked for another beer. We received the double IPA which was a bit better but not up to par. Our food arrived after 40 minutes with only one order that was correct. The server was the front door greeter and the bar tender, needless to say they were under staffed and need to concentrate on beer quality. I have been coming here for many years and rave to my friends about it. Well, that all changed tonight, I will never recommend Snowshoe Brewery to anyone and I will never return. read more
