Beer
Bernadette D.

Maybe because the AC was broken and it was 90 degrees - had a hard time enjoying this brewery. Picked this brewery hoping for a unique experience, but it didn't quite hit the mark. The Indian food didn't pair well with the beers, and the staff seemed disinterested. The food was underwhelming, which might explain why the place was empty. They are relatively new to Sandpoint, maybe in time they will improve.

The Tangerine Pale from Utara Brewing Company.
Alden C.

I was told when in Sandpoint to make sure and slow down and get a bite to eat and a beer at Utara Brewing Company. I bought some samosas from the menu and had the Cannabis Terpene beer, classified as a New England IPA . The samosas were simply out of this world and the beer was excellent. Definitely a different take to the New England IPA as the name may imply. This beer had floral, fruity and hoppy flavor highlights. Steve was at Utara prior to my visit here and requested to have some Utara beer brought home. I bought their Tangerine Pale to bring home. That beer as was equally impressive as well with the aromatics , the tangerine and the Belgiany flavors at work. So I too have to carry on the recommendation to try Utara as well. Not only are you getting creative and unique beers but the Indian dishes the restaurant serves matches their beer perfectly.

Utara has been on my list to check out for quite some time, so I'm glad we finally made it. We started with the curry fries and a few beers and thought we might just keep it at that. After tasting how good the curry was, we kept ordering more dishes. The curry mac was a great combination of flavors and the chicken tikka masala was also a standout dish. All the beers we tried were really good, too. My favorite was the Cannabis Hazy IPA. Love the dog friendly patio!

The start of a mom and daughters trip to Sandpoint and this was our first night's dinner. We went for the Indian food, but I did have a nice huckleberry hard seltzer that went well with my meal. If you know the Mango Tree places in Spokane, then you will be familiar with food like this. Some traditional dishes, but they extend the boundaries with sauces over things like french fries and pasta. It is decent, with a middle of the road spice level, and I don't mean hot spicy. We liked it, but we prefer Indian cuisine that's not softened for the mainstream crowd.

Korma with Chicken

Love a brewery that offers not your typical brew pub food! The Tikka Masala with chicken was great as was the Korma with Chicken. Places our order and had it quickly. Lots of seating inside or out! Love the vibe.

A visit to Utara for some food and brews is always on our must-do list when visiting Sandpoint. Their excellent brews pair so well with the traditional Indian fare they serve. On this visit I tried their Tangerine Pale Ale which had was the perfect balance of citrus to hops. I've never had tangerine flavored beer and this was very well executed. For food we tried a little bit of everything. The samosas and cheesy naan were a hit. They have a bunch of seating indoor and on benches outdoor. Staff and owner are super friendly and welcoming. If you're in Sandpoint and are looking for some quality food and drink give Utara a visit.

Love the Indian Food Flare! Great brews to! Great place to hang out with friends. Summer there is outside seating as well. Stop by Utara you'll be glad you did!

It was a bit loud inside, but honestly, that's totally normal and expected for a lively brewery! What really stood out right away was the ambiance and the decor--they've done a fantastic job making the space look great and welcoming. ​The Service: Absolutely 5 stars. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and constantly checked in on us to make sure we weren't missing a thing. You really can't ask for better hospitality. ​The Food: I ordered the Brisket Mac and Cheese. The mac and cheese itself was good, and the brisket was cooked nicely, but the dish was just a bit out of balance. The sauce and juices from the brisket were incredibly strong and completely overpowered the mac and cheese. If they dialed back the brisket juice a bit, it would be a perfect comfort dish. ​Overall, a great local spot with top-tier service and a really cool vibe. I'll definitely be back to try a few other things on the menu!

First time trying Westwood and I can easily say it lives up to the hype. Service from start to…read morefinish was so friendly! The burger was recommended by the server and was excellent. Next level and complex all around. And icing on the cake(figuratively, I hate cake) their old fashion was also very good. Just simple, authentic flavor - a great treat for a dad with a crazy kid. Can't wait to come back again for more "guys night out". Thanks!

And if you know me, that says EVERYTHING. The crazy part? The ranch was actually really good too... I just didn't need it. The pizza was perfectly balanced, crispy, cheesy, flavorful just chef's kiss. The beers? Crisp. Smooth. So good. The aesthetics? On point. Live music... on a Wednesday night?? Super fire. For a second I felt like I was in Hawaii or something warm vibes, good energy then I stepped outside and remembered it's cold. What really stood out though? The owner actually came out, shook hands, hung out, and still ate there. That's rare. It's always a good sign when the owner is present and genuinely cares about the space and the people in it. Service was amazing. Food was amazing. Atmosphere was amazing. Honestly wish I could give it more than 5 stars. If you're looking for a spot to connect, chill, have good beer, eat amazing pizza, and just vibe go check out Trails End Brewery. Definitely will be back.

Right along…read morethe river, it offers some great views if you walk across the street and the breezes off the water offer a little cooling in the hot summer days! We stopped on our way through town for a bite to eat and some cold brew. We enjoyed both!! The huckleberry wheat and creamsicle were our choices for the day and both were great with nice smooth finishes and plenty of fruitiness so we knew what we were drinking! We had a smash burger and the salmon & tots for dinner. The smash burger is a patty melt only better, the caramelized onions and pepper jack elevate it tremendously! The salmon was delicious, maybe a little over done but still absolutely delicious! Tots were a bit overdone, this tot lovin' girl wasn't even able to finish them! We sat at the bar and service from our bartender was friendly and smiley, just not really present. We had to hunt down silverware and napkins, waited forever for our food and just felt ignored most of the time. There were a lot of servers, all serving their own area and customers, never even looking at other customers or smiling once they left their table. It was a weird vibe, not the fun friendly vibe we're used to in breweries. All in all, a good experience and I'd go back for the salmon if in the area again!

We waited for an hour for our food and found out that they hadn't even put in our order. We had to…read moreleave without our food because we had somewhere else we needed to be.
