I'm not a beer / brewery connoisseur by any means, but I enjoyed my time at Topa Topa in Cam! The Mark Food Hall gives family-friendly vibes and is incredibly spacious with both indoor and outdoor seating. I went with about 20 other colleagues for a happy hour and there was sufficient space for all of us inside. I opted for a Taster ($4) of the KQ Express, a rice lager with notes of lime, lychee, and jasmine. I had never had a rice lager before but the bartender was quite friendly and asked if I wanted to sample it first. I thought it tasted pretty good -- smooth, clean, crisp, and slightly tart. A pretty refreshing drink overall. I uploaded a snippet of Topa Topa's calendar of events (from their website), which has a lot of super helpful information! For instance, I didn't realize that KQ Express was limited release, so I'm glad I got to try it when I did. They also host trivia on Thursday nights and they'll have live music / DJs playing every now and then. Glad there's a place like this in Camarillo!

Came back to bump this spot up a star. The merchandise area has improved and there was much more of a selection this time around! I love their clothing and I bought one of their shirts a few years back and it continues to be one of my favorites. Super comfortable and durable. The beer selection here definitely rocks and there is always something new to try. I love that some of their beers are more fruit forward but they have the classics for those that don't love that. I just find for myself there are more beers I'm willing to try as they have fun ingredients and always taste really refreshing. The staff when I came yesterday continue to be as nice as ever. They made us feel welcome and were kind to let me try a small of a beer I was looking at before I purchased it. Everyone here is really nice and they keep me coming back as I feel like a valued customer here. Glad we have this spot at the Mark because what goes better with pizza, ice cream and salads then a nice cold beer lol

Great service and beer selections every time I've been here so far. I usually get Chief peak India pale ale that's 7.0% but wanted to try something different. The bartender recommended Blue heaven 6.5% which is also India pale ale but it was just as good and refreshing.

Lots of variety of beer to choose from plenty of seating, pleasant bartender. We didn't get a chance to eat here but we'll be back. Great location, close to everything

It's about the beer. The beer here is very good, offering many styles and several on nitro. Some of the beers I liked, some I did not. That said, variety is the spice of life and as they have a variety of beers, this place is spicy. The bar staff is friendly, and more importantly patient as patrons ask for suggestions or descriptions on said varieties. This is a great place to come on a sunny day. There's outdoor seating and an indoor space. And the shared dining hall area with a pizzeria (I need to find the name) and Rori's Ice Cream only adds to the experience.

Visited the taproom in Camarillo. Nice indoor outdoor seating with a nice selection of beers, I especially loved the outdoor hiking themed names. I do wish I had asked for a taster of the beer before getting a full pint, I didn't really enjoy the one I ordered. There is always next time. Dog friendly and nice atmosphere. I will give this another try soon. Cheers

Great service. Great beer. Great atmosphere. Came in to have a beer while the family got ice cream at Rori's. Our server was too kind as she allowed me to taste 4 bears before getting a pint of Blue Heaven. Unlike my beloved Dodgers, the IPA did not disappoint. When my daughter needed a glass of water, they were very kind. With good music playing, and the NFL games playing, it was a nice little spot to hang out on a Sunday with nothing to do. 100% recommend this place, and I'd love to come back for trivia night!

My husband and I are definitely craft beer enthusiasts and enjoyed Topa Topa when we lived in Santa Barbara so we were so happy to have found this location! What a great spot to put this brewery next to an artisan pizza restaurant and artisan ice cream, hello date night? There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating that's well decorated and sometimes even a live band. One note I have would be for Topa Topa to host some events (bingo, comedy night, trivia, book clubs, even yoga!, etc.) as I've seen at their other locations and this would be a perfect place for young professionals in Camarillo to meet up! While we were there we tried a flight with the KQ express, moo bae, Gadabout and Rose it ain't so. Loved the KQ express, light and refreshing really well done rice lager and the moo bae was delightful, not many can do ube right and they definitely did. The other two we would pass on for our next visit and try some others on tap. Overall super fun and great vibe, see you there!

PATAGONIA PROVISIONS PERENNIAL TEST BEER KERNZA LAGER

My FAVORITE brewing company in Ventura County. If you can't find me here, you can find me at another Topa Topa establishment...most likely the Ventura one which is gorgeous. This spot used to be my checkpoint to finish any biological survey reports before I headed home. Now it's my go-to spot whenever I need a beer during my two hour lunches on Thursdays. I can't really offer beer recommendations since beer is an acquired taste to every individual. Not everyone likes heavy dark beers or light beers that some think tastes like pee. With that said, I will share my favorites and perhaps it can be part of your beer flight when you try this place out. My top Topa Topa beer is hands down the Spectro Hazy IPA. I love the fruity hints to the IPA. I have definitely had batches (from cans) that lack that fruity notes so this beer is best from the tap. The Sespe Pilsner is my next go-to (when it is in season). The Light Hike Kolsch and the Dos Topas lager are tied for 3rd place in my extremely subjective review of their beers. And lastly the KQ Express rice lager. That one has been on and off depending on my mood. I tried the Patagonia Provisions Perennial test beer "Kernza Lager" this time around. Patagonia was looking to collab for a new beer that goes with their environmentally friendly beer cans. This lager was not shabby but not my cup of beer. Help out Topa Topa and try the test beer out to give them some feedback. Hope to catch you there and say hi if you see me! Cheers!

Their parking is interesting but they have multiple entrances so you can get in from the shop or the main door, etc. They only have one sour beer, which I did not like so I did not end up getting beer. However, their food was good. We had multiple salads. The pesto chicken was good, we also had the barbecue chicken, bacon salad, but without the bacon. It came with a bacon and I asked Alex and they ended up making a new one without the bacon, which was really good. I have to say this is my favorite one. We also have the Carne Asada pizza, veggie pizza, tri-tip pizza, soft pretzel. Food was good, good atmosphere, good service despite being really busy. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return.

My friend had an open tab and realized once we got to the parking lot that he had forgotten to close it. He immediately went back inside. It was only around 11:05 PM, about five minutes after closing, and there were still other customers inside the establishment. When he asked to close out his tab, he was told he would be charged an additional fee because the tab had been left open and they closed at 11:00 PM. I understand having a policy for tabs that are actually abandoned, especially if someone leaves for the night and staff have to close everything out after everyone is gone. But that was not the situation here. He had not left the premises, came back in immediately, and there were still customers inside. Charging someone an extra fee under those circumstances felt unnecessary and unfair, especially over a matter of five minutes. My whole group has been repeat customers and have always left satisfied, so it was disappointing to be treated this way over something that could have been handled very easily. Unfortunately, this experience definitely changed our impression of a place we previously enjoyed coming to. Especially considering we come here to celebrate birthdays many times a year!

We ordered an iced tea ($4.00), TO Honey I'm Blonde ($7.75), Stone Buenaveza ($8.25), Limoncello Mascarpone Cake ($7.50), and the "special cheesecake" ($9.50). With $2.68 in tax, the total was $39.68 before tip. Despite the word "tavern" in the name, this place is family friendly. During our visit, there were two large group gatherings (with kids) happening at the same time. The interior is spacious but can get noisy due to the hard surfaces. However, when the weather cooperates, there are outdoor patios available in both the front and back. Although the color palette of the interior décor is dark, the space feels clean and comfortable. There's a variety of seating options--booths, tables, high-tops, and communal tables. I'm sure the pastries on the menu came from a third-party vendor, but they were really good. (Edit to follow.) * The business owner informs me that the pastries are actually made in house! They are very good--so save room for dessert. * Our server Julie was a great hostess.

At $1.25 per ring, I can only assume each one was individually handcrafted by a Michelin-starred chef, blessed by management, and carefully selected for its exceptional character. For five bucks, I wasn't expecting an onion plantation, but I did think I'd get enough rings to qualify as an actual side dish rather than a tasting menu. If you're looking to experience the thrill of financial regret, one onion ring at a time, this is your place. You've been warned. Bring your wallet. And maybe a backup snack.
