We didn't expect to find ourselves in a taproom while in Napa, but Trade Brewing by the Oxbow, is so inviting, we couldn't help it! Sam was so welcoming, we felt like he'd been waiting all day for us to stop in by the way he greeted us, and made sure our time there was amazing. From the game nights to the food trucks, this tap room hosts a calendar full of fun sounding, community building events. Oh, and they have a menu of award winning beers! I highly recommend Trade Brewing as a perfect way to round out your Napa Valley experience, stop in for a flight of their best and ask for Sam. read more

We stopped by here on a Wednesday night and had the back patio all to ourselves. When we walked back inside to close out our tab, we saw a full-fledged bingo night underway. It looked like a lot of fun. This place definitely feels like a local hangout. There's a decent selection of beer on tap, of course. There's also a bar bites menu. We opted for the coney dogs ($12), which were huge and were smothered in a sweet chili. Very good. We also shared a plate of the dirty chips ($12), which are basically nachos made with kettle chips instead of tortilla chips. Also a good choice. If pub fare isn't your thing, the bartender said they don't object to you bringing your own food. Trade is located across the street from OxBow so there are plenty of food options if you want to go that route. read more

It might not be 5:00 here, but it's 5:00 back at work. I'm still working every day as I drive my Sprinter van hither and yon across the USA. It's quitting time and as such, beer o'clock. The nearest dispensary of frosty adult beverages was Trade Brewing where I found a decently comfortable space, free wifi and a tasty brew. I was here for 90 minutes and in that time, I participated in two Facebook arguments and wrote four Yelp reviews while sipping away at two of Trade's delicious beers. Good stuff! This is a busy neighborhood and I was very fortunate to find a street parking space almost right in front. As the day moved into dinner hours, it got packed. When I left at 5:30, someone swooped in and grabbed my parking space as soon as I moved out. [Review 17569 overall - 365 in California - 1087 of 2022.] read more

Went here on 7/6/2023. Large patio out back. Smaller area inside. Did not have a lot of beers on tap. No dark beers. We tried the farmhouse and sour. Nothing special but good. Bartender was friendly. Cheers! read more

The bartender let us try a few beers without us even having to ask, which was so nice! We got the 220 Volt and Comfortably Plum. We really liked both! They have a good amount of seating indoors and outdoors. Happy hour is Monday-Friday from 3-6 pm. $5 beers during Happy Hour!! Can't beat that! Great beer and good service! read more

Place gives some chill vibes when we came by on a Sunday evening. The staff was friendly and they have about 8-10 different beers on tap. The beer was fine just nothing too special and most were IPA-esque so not much variety. I'd come back to try again but it wouldn't be my top choice when in the area as the beer wasn't that good and we had what I feel is their classic pale ale, the 110v. read more

I walk in today I ask to used the bathroom and I was told where it was the my friend walk behind me and ask if they were still open they were told for just a bit. I heard that and it was just 7pm I thought it was weird. Because it said at the door they close at 9pm My friend went to the bathroom after me and when she came out I told her that we need it to go she ask me why I told her we are not welcome here. She said what happened I told her what the bar tender said she got mad and said what I said let's just go. I apologize because she was mad I fell bad because they said we were intoxicated. But we were not we were very cold today was a nice sunny day I had a summer dress but it did got chilly and we were shaking from the cold and they saw the complexity of our skin. I feel sad I was treated the way. I will not recommend this place at all . Sad sad. read more

Wanted to enjoy a beer on a quick ride break and made a pit stop here. Nice cute spot across from Oxbow. We came pretty early so we were the only guests inside. They had music playing and noticed a few game boards for entertaining which I thought was cool. They normally serve food, but the day we visited their kitchen was out of service although they did invite us to bring outside food if we liked. I had one of their ciders which I thought was okay, my husband and enjoyed his beer. I didn't noticed until after we left they they had an bigger outdoor area which I wished we sat at but more reason to come back next time. read more

Covid-19 Measures: Outdoor Covered Patio w/ Distanced Tables, Distanced Seating Indoors, & touch points disinfected regularly. Customer Service: Consistently welcoming staff & knowledgeable about their Menu. Check out "Skinny" on Sunday's for his enthusiasm on all things Bay Area. Can't Miss Drinks: IPA's 110V & 220V are a must @Trade. Growlers sold & refilled Here. 5 Flights for $15 is a steal :) Trade offers a great balance of brewery & privacy. Tourist are treated as locals & locals feel the convenience of a brewery near downtown without the commotion of Napa's Oxbow Market nearby. Looking to have a Brew while you catch up on a Book? Seeking a study atmosphere beyond Starbucks ? Need a break while traffic hour passes? I recommended trade for these conveniences, in addition to their stellar craft beers. read more

My favorite brew was Pile Driver IPA. After several days of wine tasting, we found a refuge here. Gianni and Audrey made us feel very welcome. This was our 2nd visit and I highly recommend a visit if you are in the Downtown Napa area. read more

Great brewery. I had a pint of Hatchet (their flagship IPA). It was crisp and not hoppy. Fantastic on a hot day. Our server Damien was terrific. He told good stories, was informative and just an overall good guy. Employees like that just make the brewery experience better. Only dig/tip that I will give is on the beer cheese that came with the chips. Stick to their pico which was great and skip the cheese. No question, I will come back. read more

We spent 3 days in Napa and by day 3 I needed to change it up! I wasn't able to go to the Oxbow market as I had my dog with me. I stopped in here and asked if it was okay to bring my dog in, they said "we would prefer it"! The staff was very friendly, and I was able to get a Chicago dog and blonde ale for $15! Nice change of pace after all the wine. read more

Made a quick stop into Trade Brewing on Thursday evening. I am always looking to find reasons to praise smaller breweries, but I struggled here as the prices, beer, and simple location did not offer much to love. Quality: During my visit to Trade Brewing ordered a Flight with What The Funk, Comfortably Plum, 220V, and Eighty Acre. I wasn't particular excited about any of the beers and the price for a Flight was high. I felt the flavors for the more unique selections were difficult to get into, and 220V was simply not a very good IPA. It was not juicy as described and had a rough after-taste. Quantity: Four 5oz pours for a typical Flight size. Value: $15 for a Flight. Ambiance: Trade Brewing is located in the Napa area, very close to Oxbow Public Market. It appears to be a converted house, right off the main street. There is a small partially covered outdoor area out front, then a small indoor space with bar and several tables. Simple and casual, with a few televisions showing playoff basketball. Crowd: Extremely busy on Thursday evening. Service: Friendly and efficient bartenders. Parking: Plenty of nearby street parking. read more

Went there today and I really liked the place. We had a Kolsch and it was very good and I am not a Kolsch guy. Today was soup and we had the flight. Every soup was delicious and reasonably priced. The bartender was polite and so were most of the customers. Place had tons of seating and a good variety of beer. I will definitely go back again and have more then one next time. Hopefully you can get some Pilsners or lagers. Parking was abundant and OXbow market is close by for food . read more

I cant believe how Napa is coming along with regards to beer. This is wine country but a person can't live on wine alone; enter Trade Brewing. Located in the first house on the south side of 1st, if you blink you'll miss it. So don't blink, you won't want to miss visiting Trade, it's a welcome addition to the off-to-a-great-start beer scene in Napa. First off, from the outside you think you're going to be entering an old farmhouse until you get inside. Soaring ceilings, concrete floors and plenty of seating makes for a gorgeous well planned space. Then you have the bartenders, what a great and friendly bunch. Super passionate about that they do and their love of beer and Napa, I can relate. As for the beers, you guessed it, great! They do offer flights but I went for their double IPA, Pile Driver. For a double IPA with an IBU of 115 I was expecting a really long bitter finish. Nope, I was surprised by the short bitter finish that clears your palate and leaves you wanting more. I could drink this IPA all night long, well, it's 8.9% ABV, so I thought better of it. Trade also offers food which include bar snacks, salads and panini. We already had food plans but next time I'm totally ordering the charcuterie board. Nothing like salty pig parts and beer! There are plans to open up some outdoor seating around back next year. I know where I'll be this summer! read more

The best--imo--brewery in Napa, Trade is a nice little spot off the beaten path. It's near oxbow, but is a stand alone walk down tap room with a relaxed vibe that many micro/craft purists enjoy. Take a look at the menu and you'll see they have something for everyone, and if you try something you wouldn't normally look for there's a good chance you'll be impressed. The 80 acre is my favorite. read more

Trade brewing, Wine country welcomes you with open arms! Located right before Oxbow Market, this craft brewery gives Stone Brewery a run for its money (IMO). They do offer flights here, so try at least five before you decide on a pint. Our fave were 2200v IPA and Ten Penny Brown Ale. There are daily specials- Friday's are $5 paninis, another day is a couple bucks off some booze and so on. I heard they just opened in October so it was a little quiet when we came on a Friday night around 5:30, but stick around and the crowd comes in about an hour later. Pumped to see what other good beer they produce and ready for their merch when they drop!! read more

The waitress/ bartender was amazing!

Napa may be known for the wine but I'm glad we stopped by Trade Brewing for the beer. They had a great variety of beers so we decided to go with a flight to try multiple. The eighty acre was my fav! The customer service here is awesome and the staff had great recommendations for us. We stopped by when it wasn't too busy so we were able to relax and really enjoy the atmosphere. It's also close to everything. It's right across from the Oxbow public market and not too far a walk from the riverfront. Definitely stop by if you're a beer lover in Napa! read more

Really enjoyed the visit to Trade Brewing. Unfortunately, did not plan well to visit wineries at Napa for the long weekend, but glad we found a respite at Trade Brewing. It was a very inclusive place, with many dogs and pets being allowed as well. There was live music, a big crowd outside (mainly mask-less), but there was ample seating inside to beat the heat, and with 6' distancing. The local IPA that I tried was flavorful and priced well. Service was great - service with a smile. Would highly recommend. read more

With all the new breweries opening in Napa there is no room for error and this place delivers. The beers are on point and the snacks are not too shabby. You don't come for the food but those sliders are nice to coat the tummy while wetting the whistle with tasty brews. The hatchet was incredible and after a flight of five other beers there was no bad choice for fans of beer. This place is a step forward to moving Napa towards a place that's not just about wine. Make sure you head in and have a beer so that they can succeed and new breweries will open. read more

Hands down favorite brewery in Napa. This place is so great! The staff is always friendly and the beer is ALWAYS great. My favorite is the 220V, but I also really enjoy the 110 when I am looking for something a little lighter. They do daily specials which are great and the location of being so close to everything in downtown is awesome too. Plus they are dog friendly both inside and outside! :) They do serve food as well, so you can absolutely come hungry and you will be well taken care... try the nachos or paninis! Well done Trade, I am always a happy customer!! read more

First thing I'd compliment on is their service. Sam was a great host. There was a good amount of beer choices - I'd say 11 - and it ranged from a double IPA, IPAs, Ales and Sours. Back patio area set up was nice. Front patio area also had seating. There was also a small "bar" menu if you wanted to order food. Recommended: 220V read more
