Food was good. I ordered the brisket mac and cheese and it was very filling. My family ordered mostly burgers/chicken sandwiches and they said that the buns were too small for the meat. It kept falling apart. Our substitutions we asked for weren't acknowledged, we had ordered no lettuce or tomatoes and they still came with it on the food. All in all, they liked the tator tots and food, just needed the buns to be bigger. read more

Good food and good service. Friendly staff and centrally located. Good place to come and hang out after shopping at Tyler mall. read more

Thompson Brewing - Hot pretzel and cold bear on a hot California day. - American Near Me - Riverside, California

Was planning a 50th for a friend and came upon this place. Had lots of space food and drinks. Upon emailing Thompson they were helpful with the reservation and promo with email responses. They were even nice enough to allow us to store our birthday cake in their freezer. They had plenty of seating. A variety of drinks and good selection of food. Everyone at the party was pleased with everything. There can be long lines around 6:00 but otherwise not bad. We would defiantly go again. Only wish they were open later. read more

Outstanding!! First time here. The staff was very friendly, brews were cold and great, food was awesome. I had the weekly special, onion ring bbq burger, and wife had a pulled pork sandwich. Great environment as we found our new hang out and go to spot. read more

Thompson Brewing Co. is a fantastic hidden gem. It is set up to be a tasting room/area with a few tables and chairs for people to sit and enjoy some great craft beers! There is awesome dark beers as well as very unique lighter beers to please everyone's palette. If you're looking for a place to go with a few friends to just have a drink and get away from the typical bar scene, then this is the place for you. There isn't overbearing loud music (so you can have a conversation) and the atmosphere is very welcoming of everyone. If you haven't tried it yet, you need to look into it. read more

Cool place to hang out and relax.! All the people there are super friendly and greet you with a welcoming smile. Highly recommend it. Clean and the food is fresh and yummy read more

Went here for the first time today 10/10/20 and loved it. Got a DIPA 7% and husband got the saison. Very true to styles and delicious. We are homebrewers and love to see exposed breweries and see what they have for equipment. Got the veggie burger and wow very good. It has a fresh pretzel bun. Yum!! read more

First time here and really enjoyed it. Already anxious to go back. About a dozen house brews to choose from. Pricing was reasonable. Board games, cards, darts, comic books, cool place to relax and enjoy some good beers. My favorite thing here was the food! Burger was great! Giant soft pretzel was great. Loaded tater tots were great! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a beer and a burger. read more

The Groupon deal and the beers itself were great. The owner and his son are very nice. This is a great spot! I highly recommend it.

The best bbq I've ever had in riverside. The location is deceiving but it's such a fun place and the food is unreal.

This is our second time to Thompson's and it just confirmed how much we enjoy it here. They have a great beer selection on tap (try either their cherry Bavarian or chocolate peppermint stout - if available, you can totally thank me later). Their food is absolutely delicious. We tried their pub burger and cheesy loaded tots (pictured). It has a ton of flavor and pair great with their beer. Super kid friendly. We love to support small businesses and especially family run and operated ones. Thompson's is an awesome. Stop reading this and go. Like now. read more

Love this place. It was my first time here, and they have so much seating. Great beers and great food. We shared a country fried steak during their Saturday brunch, and we also got a biscuit on the side. Biscuits here are homemade and they're both crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The country fried steak also came with delicious gravy and crispy tots. Loved the environment and the food, really glad I stumbled my way into here! read more

Love this place. Great beer, great food, great vibes. Super friendly staff. Definitely my Sunday afternoon spot

Tucked into a light industrial park, surrounded by welding shops & the like, Thompson Brewing Company turns out small-batch, extraordinarily drinkable beers of almost every variety. The owners are great people, who usually have their kids & dogs hangin' out with them. Take a snack with you, or munch on the pretzels they usually have out. Caution - its not air-conditioned, so if its hot, dress lightly. read more

Absolutely love the family-owned Thompson Brewing! My girlfriend and I are more than happy to travel from SOCAL for some delicious Thompson smoked meats, Mac and cheese, and beers. If you have the opportunity to catch them for a weekend brunch though, I promise you won't be disappointed - everything here is amazing. If you follow them on Instagram, you can get an idea of what beers are on tap and what foods/specials are available. We've been guilty to come on a random Wednesday for a hatch Chile Mac and cheese brisket. Again, it's all worth it! read more

We love this place! Staff is friendly, food is great and it has a nice, chill vibe. There is two levels of seating as well as outdoor seating. There are things for the littles to do as well as the adults (dominoes, large connect 4, checkers, games, etc.). We love to come here for date night. We like the beer as well, you're able to sample it too. Def recommend! read more

Fantastic beer, good food & great atmosphere!! We'll definitely be coming back again!!

Lots of good beers on tap they also have decent Porter had a good dark beer! Okay Friendly place and very busy on Fridays

Amazing beers and food, great selection. I love that it was not IPA heavy, there were selections of IPA but it wasn't dominating the menu. The food was off the hook, the ranch and thousand Island are made from scratch. Excellent service and a great atmosphere as well. The line was continually out the door for the hour plus we were here. Cheers to you guys! read more

Great family run business! Called in day of and got a reservation through Martha. She set us up with two tables for a bday next to kids area. The food is amazing and the beer keeps flowing with different varieties to choose from. If you love good food and beer you definitely need to check out Thompson's brewery. read more

Awesome burgers! Staff is very friendly! This is a family owned business! I went here for dinner and a few drinks the night before I got married. read more

Saint Patrick's night with a full patio they closed at 8 pm after opening at 5 pm. We had just started enjoying our night when we got the last call at 7:45. I understand closing your kitchen. But when you've got a full patio,warehouse, and interior ready to drink and spend money, then send them all home at 8 makes no sense to me. Food was good but Super expensive. $14 for a chicken sandwich and fries. When asked why they close at 8 o'clock the answer was because we can. Not the best customer service. I guess I'm giving two stars because I didn't want to go home so early. And if I would've made a better choice to go to a different bar that stayed open till at least 10 o'clock, I could've celebrated in true Irish fashion. read more

Foods great! Service was great! Highly recommend!! Sours on point! Many beers to choose from and great outdoor patio to enjoy your drinks!

Place is awesome! Staff and beer were excellent!! Food was surprisingly good, the tots were the "bees knees, the cats pajamas". Plenty of room to sit, and lots of games. 10/10 would come again. Recommend to anyone who's looking for good food and better beer. read more

Thompson Brewing - Mango wheat beer, potatoes skin, bomb chicken - American Near Me - Riverside, California

Went there with a friend, bought a flight to try different offerings. The beer was great and that's about it. Ordered brisket sandwich and was really disappointed, food was cold and lacked flavor. There was no seating inside so had to sit outside in the 90+ degree heat. Apparently that's where the families sit so the kids can play in the parking lot with some huge truck tires in the back parking lot. It was loud from the shouting kids and parents really didn't watch them. One kid has a melt down and his mom had to take him away from the other kids, he was hitting his own face in anger‍. Not a good experience at all for my friend and I. We eventually left to have drinks at The Sire and air conditioning. Much better environment. read more

As an Black American I felt comfortable and well enough accepted. It is both my and my daughter's second time and we really like it and will be back again. We had the Cranberry Belgian Tripel, which was an excellent choice if I may add!!! read more

Thompson Brewing - Thompson Brewery - American Near Me - Riverside, California

We loved this place. Stopped along the way on a road trip. Great food, nice people. Fun games for the family to play.

I just visited this brewery last night but was so impressed by the service and quality of food that I felt compelled to write a review today. As soon as you walk in you're greeted by who I believe are the owners (a family). They make you feel so welcomed - it's like dining with friends. We ordered three flights and while I can't remember the names of everything, all the beer was delicious. We also ordered the Mac n cheese waffle, fried cheese, tater tots, fried pickles and all the food was absolutely delicious. Prices are great you and will definitely get your money's worth. We enjoyed a girls' night out of not only food and drinks, but darts/games/Jenga/air hockey. It's like Dave&Buster's without the price tag + the friendliness and coziness of a local ma & pa. I highly recommend. read more

I am not a beer drinker but my fiancé is. He's been telling me how good the food is and always wanting to come here for lunch. I finally gave in and the food was amazing!! I had the Ruben sandwich and fried pickles! Honestly my mouth is watering even thinking about it because it was sooooo good! I also had a ice cold Dr.Pepper lol. Even if you don't drink beer they have plenty of other beverage options and a very yummy menu! I will definitely be back! read more

I can not say enough AMAZING THINGS about this place! Been coming here on and off for a while. It's honestly one of Riverside's hidden gems! Great craft beer, amazing owners and support staff, fun games, family friendly environment! Everyone is always so kind and helpful. I decided last minute to celebrate my birthday here and invited friends family and co workers. I had a pretty large group and this place was already packed and had another even going on (a wedding I think?) yet everyone here at Thompson was so accommodating and mindful of my party! Honestly made my birthday! Can't thank you all enough for making my evening so special! They brew one of my favorite beers in the inland empire! Cranberry Belgian Tripel!!! read more
