Amazing food, incredible beer and amazing people work here. We come here all the time and every single time I feel like it gets better and better! Super cool atmosphere! This is definitely our go to place! :) read more

Great variety of beers that are constantly changing. Great food, clean, and friendly staff. read more

Service is bad but food makes up for it. Delicious chicken sandwich. I suggest you go and drink beer don't just go for food because no matter what you are waiting an hour for some dumb reason. I'd go again. read more

Finally, a brewery that isn't all IPAs. Owners have a combination of wine and beer backgrounds that you can taste in some of the beers. Cool place Definitely worth a detour on your way to South Lake. read more

In this age of social distancing, SG has done an excellent job of still creating an intimate experience in a welcoming venue. The staff is friendly and more than willing to help guide you to the right choice. They gladly poor tastes to help you decide. A great place to just hang! read more

I really enjoyed Solid Ground Brewery! The food and the beer was wonderful and the location perfect! It was a bit inconveninet to have to get back in line to get another beer or more food. That part I didn't like. And the staff could have been a little more responsive and friendly. But we will definately go back due to the proximity to our new home. Loved the curried hard boiled eggs btw .... what a great idea and a great appetizer! read more

Great selection of beers inside a beautiful new brewery. Their food menu isn't large, but everything I've ordered has been tasty. I've been there several times and the servers have always been great. read more

First-time visit. came for lunch and adult beverages, although we did have a 7-year-old along with 5 adults. A wide range of beers and wines, all on tap, something different to please each of us. It's an awkward situation for ordering, you stand in line to order drinks and food at the bar, you wait to get your drinks to take to your desired seating (patio or indoors) then you get a number to sit on the table for when the food comes out the server can locate you. We were told the food would take 20-25 minutes but it was 45+minutes... I suspect they may have skipped over our order as others that arrived after we did got their food about 15 minutes before we finally did and that was after we got up to inquire why... plus they offered a round "on the house" once the food arrived. The children's food choices were zero... as our little one doesn't eat meat, so the charcuterie plate was selected, the cheese and bread rounds swiftly removed to another plate for him. As the brewery appears to be "kid friendly" I hope in the future more children's foods would be offered. The other regular menu items we ordered were the sliders, polenta tots and spinach salad, appeared to be sufficient in size and were pronounced 'good''. The special offerings were baba ganoush served with chips, pita I presume (pronounced by the eater as 'killer' I believe) and pulled pork sandwich. The sandwiches were served with a large portion of thin cut skin on fries, which were excellent. The sandwich was alright but not excellent sorry to say. Overall the visit was a success, we would return but perhaps not as hungry this time to allow for a long wait. I would say come for the beverages first, food services are lacking a bit so don't have high expectations there. The atmosphere is nice, a combination of bar seating, tables and chairs as well as bench /tables seating the length of one wall. The patio is dog friendly: picnic tables with umbrellas, but probably pretty hot on a summer day. read more

Solid Ground Brewing - Hefewiezen beer, waiting on pulled pork 'samich' - Breweries Near Me - Diamond Springs, California

Very impressed. Updating review to tell everyone get on down here. This place is legit. As a veteran brewery frequenter, I can assure you that the beers are very well crafted here. Food is great and appropriate for the for these beers. Even though I am at Solid Ground quite a bit, they reliably have new stuff to try with their "small batches" and yet the usual favorites are reliably available. While they make several good IPAs, hazys, and heavy stouts, I really appreciate that they also have several traditional brews which are true to style. Try the Helles, Pilsner, Kolsch, etc. all excellent! read more

This brewery is amazing! I love how they constantly bring in seasonal brews and changes to the menu. The tacos are bomb! Try the double IPA you won't regret it. read more

Ordered the street tacos, the meat is cooked to perfection but lacks some flavor (salt and possibly some other spices). The green salsa served with it is outstanding but the red didn't provide much flavor either. Service was super fast and beer was excellent! You guys are doing a great job. read more

Love solid ground. Great local beer. Lately the food has been just ok. Last three meals there have been way too salty to enjoy. Food is normally great, just maybe tone it down on the salt shaker. read more

Great environment and delicious food! I highly recommend the dirty fries and do a flight of beer so you can pick your favorite. We had the sliders as well with a salad filled with grilled peaches and Brie... yumm yumm yumm!!! read more

Solid Ground has become our favorite place to eat and drink! We love our hometown Brewery! The food just keeps getting better and better. The burger is our favorite food selection. It's fresh and juicy. The chicken sandwich is a close second. The beers are so tasty! Our current favorites are the Black Desert and the Heff. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Sierra and Rose rock!! read more

This is our spot! I almost hate to brag about it because I know more people will visit. The beer selection offers excellent variety, and I've yet to have a beer that I didn't appreciate. The small kitchen continues to produce consistently delicious foods. Rose and Sierra and Dylan provide excellent service. I'm grateful this hometown brewery is on my way home. read more

We drive 45 minutes to come here often. Great food and great beer/cider/wine and service. Thank you Solid aground!

Got a great recommendation to come here and the absolute worst experience ever, ordered sliders and a beer, was told right after they were out of sliders so just asked for my money back for the food and i'd just have the beer, they filled multiple people's crowlers in line after me then realized i wasn't served, realized i got shorted by $7 as i was waiting for my beer i drank it and immediately left out of frustration, because of how terrible the service was and didn't wanna bother getting my money back that i was shorted on, definitely will not be getting my service ever again! Get it together guys... ‍ read more

I was visiting my son in Georgetown and we decided to check out this new brewery. My son is a seasoned home brewer and is always looking for new delicious and interesting brews. This place did not disappoint! He couldn't stop raving about the stout, and the double IPA was amazing! They also make their own wine!! I had the Malbec and it was delicious! The food was delicious, as well! We ordered Solid Ground sliders and the bacon sliders; both were amazing! They put an unique twist on their food items with different aiolis, spreads, and spices! Not your everyday "bar food"! I loved the atmosphere, and it's family friendly! They have tables in the brewing room, too, which is such a cool concept! We went in the brewing area to check it out and one of the brewers stopped to chat with us! He was super friendly and passionate about his brews! I loved this place and will definitely be back! read more

We came to the area on vacation and were pleasantly surprised to find this gem. I personally love sours and they had some fun ones along with a variety of other great beers. The interior is spotless and the food is delicious! If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely return. read more

I go in for the first time to fill a couple of growlers for the weekend. Sampled a few things then pick two to go. The guy sold my Growlers and THEN range me up... $51.00 FOR TWO GROWLERS. Why didn't you tell me the price, I had told him I hadn't been in before and was obviously looking up at the board which does not have prices on it. Ring people up beforehand and don't guilt embarrass them into purchasing your product and you will keep your customers. I will not be back no matter how the beer ends up tasting. read more

The beer here is the best around. I love beer, I travel all over to try new beers, brew my own, and they have the magic touch. Everything they make captures the style of each beer fully but then somehow goes to the next level. They've become the new top of the measuring stick for me. I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of awards start being won by this place. I just hope when it happens the place doesn't change or get overrun with tourists. The food is good too, they had some really rough goes at the menu to start but they are settling into it I think. I do wish they just had a burger though, they have sliders which are amazing, but it's not a basic juicy burger. Their food is kind of artisan pub food, a little fancy but really good. I always want bigger portions though, but that just leaves more room for beer :) And I love how they do their growlers too! They have varying sizes and the cheapest price on a growler I've seen too. It's almost irresponsible to not get a growler or two. read more

Best brewery in El Dorado County hands down. Staff is super nice, beer is amazing!! And food is served with great presentation, don't let the small portion cool you, u'll be stuffed. Ordered the flight so I could taste a few. LOVED the Devil's Tower, it's a petit syrah stout read more

I work just across the street, so I can say that the owners of this establishment are good people. This is a huge deal to me, because I like knowing my money is going to good families. This is the coolest brewery in the area. The interior is sparse, but I love it because this is a place for people to gather, and the people define the atmosphere. There is also a huge viewing area where you can see the brewing equipment up close - very cool! Is the beer good? Yes! So is the wine (yes, they also make their own wine) and the non-alcoholic options for the kiddos. Their food service can be a little slow, but it's worth waiting for. The thing to remember is that this is a brewery, not a restaurant. All-in-all, I highly recommend this place. A quick glance at my bank account can confirm this! ;) Seriously, you can't go wrong, and I hope you love it as much as my wife and I both do! read more

It's Saturday and my first time here. Busy place but the bartenders are on their game. I love the cleanliness and clean lines of this place! I like IPAs so I ordered KABRU. Yummm! Nice choice if I may say so myself! The music is perfectly my taste (classic rock) and at the perfect volume. Just loud enough to hear it AND your neighbor! The buzz of conversation is on high ...thanks to the lack of any television sets! Which, turns out, I like A LOT! Small food menu but from what I see coming out of the kitchen, they have it dialed in. I personally like a place that perfects a few items rather than having a bunch of crap. Yeah, I think l will be back. All thanks to my Honey for randomly stopping by Solid Ground one day after work and telling me..."We gotta go!" read more

Solid Ground Brewing - First time here! Won't be the last. Thanks to the good beer and good music. - Breweries Near Me - Diamond Springs, California

Really impressed with Solid Ground Brewing's food, friendly service and numerous beer choices! Chicken sandwich, burger and fries -- all EXCELLENT! Also nice to have the option to order inside and then go sit outside on the patio, next to a heater (worked almost too well) and have food brought out to us! read more

Beer is great! Hot wings....nah that's a pass. Super flakey batter with a burnt taste, just messy, greasy and little to no meat. Sliders are good but again greasy, and the fries, WAY too much salt. In fact I'd advise the cook to not add any. Let your customers add salt. I really do like this place, again really good beer, great service, great vibe, but the food is just too greasy and salty. Stick to salad or charcuterie plate. read more

Stopped by on our way to Placerville. The ambiance when we first entered was very nice and clean. The inside smelled like fresh wood which I liked. They also had a dog friendly patio outside, but not much of a view. This is a good place to come for some drinks, but not much if you're hungry for some juicy steak burger or pulled pork sandwich. You will be served up with some regularly looking and tasting burgers and sandwich that are better off made at home. read more

Great selection of beers. A cool kinda vibe inside with plenty of seating. Not a huge selection of food but what they offered was delicious. We got the dirty fries and the sliders and had plenty of food for the three of us. The staff was friendly. And beers were top rate read more

Solid Ground is a great new addition to our area! They have a wonderful selection of beers on tap, including many delightful IPAs! My favorites are the tropical IPA (Trango) and a pineappley one they call Cosmick. The food is amazing-we had an asparagus pancetta Mac & cheese, and their fries. Food came out quickly and was soooo tasty! The environment is really open and chill, and the staff is super fun and friendly. They also sell 4 packs of cans to take home which is awesome! It seems like they rotate what is available for cans, though, so call ahead if you have your mind set on something specific and they can tell you what's available :) read more

I think the beer is good but as Janel experienced below, the service is lacking.. with a snoot of arrogance and a handful of ambivalence. It's super family friendly - to a fault. It would have been nice to sit with a friend share a beer and be able to have a discussion without squelching and running children everywhere. If you're into a pub experience that mimic's the environment of a Chucky Cheese or a trailer park block party, you're in for a treat. read more

You would be better off getting a can of beer and some Doritos from the gas station up the street. Bring out the Zero Stars... Horrible service here, the beer is still very drinkable, just buy it at the gas station up the road...........or find a PLEASANT venue and skip their product altogether. I will be. read more

This brewery is amazing. The place has a modern look with a fun atmosphere. I have been all over the world and tasted beer in Germany, Hungary, and Ireland. This place is better and much closer. The employees are very attentive and friendly. I am so happy I found this place. And on top of it all the food is awesome:) read more

This place was amazing! We visited on a Saturday afternoon. Great selections of beer and wine! I'm not a big beer drinker so I opted for the sparkling rose which was one of the best I have ever had! Ordered 3 different items from the menu: Thai chili wings, fries, and the Mac and cheese. All were wonderful and we stuffed ourselves because we didn't want to leave any behind! Great atmosphere, building decor was nice especially for a brewery, and the service was too notch! We will definitely be going back and want to check out a night when they have live music. read more

Beer selection is good. I had the Ghost Pepper Pilsner and my hubs got the Darvaza double IPA. Both were very good. We ordered the sliders and spinach salad. Not that much food, more like an appetizer size portion. Prices are high. Salad, sliders and 2 beers $45. Yikes. Environment is chill. Not that much outdoor seating. read more

Excellent beer - start with a flight and sample the delights. We very much enjoyed everything we sampled. The sliders are AMAZING. Probably the best burger I've ever had. It's a small menu, but everything we tried was extremely well executed. It's a casual place with great ambiance, friendly staff and yummy food. Stop by, have some great beer and delicious food. read more

Great place. Many tasty brews.. live music, right off Pleasant Valley Rd. In Diamond Springs. You can sit and eat or drink inside the brewing chambers. Try it out while you "hop" from place to place. read more
