Outstanding sweet potato fries with sauce. Tried a few of the beers loved at the sizes are 3 oz for most its just above a tasting for a few bucks. This place is right on the road but its not noisy and there is sun and shade on very thick Wood high tables with stools. May not be great for small children the strollers could navigate, dogs are welcome too.
Tons of great beer choices and good food to go with it. Just because you are a brewery doesnt mean you have to serve mediocre food, these guys prove it.They have done a good job of social Distancing everything for the time being which makes for an much more comfortable experience.Get the brussel sprouts or tatter tots.
I wish this place was closer to my house! The beers are factually award winning, and the food is great too. The last time I was there, Carrie helped me out. She is super knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure my beer flight was good to go. Kind of a beer hall vibe where strangers meet, and plenty of places to tuck away for something more intimate. Cheers CCB🍻
This is an excellent spot to grab a drink. Its tucked away, but the food is good. The staff was great.
Soooo.. where should I start 🤔🤔First off let me begin by saying Thank you guys for having us on Valentines Night !!The Beer 🍺 was the best in SLO .. hands down without a doubt 👌🏽 Delicious Chicken Wings 👍🏽Employees had perfect customer service skills..Very clean atmosphere 👍🏽👍🏽My Goal before leaving town for Valentines date was to attend Central Coast Brewing & you people nailed it!!My squad really enjoyed the whole experience and companionship of the locals 🍻🍻 s/o to KellyDefinitely coming back and advising all my craft drinking buddies to attend this location.Cheers George 🍻🍻p.s show us some love with a couple good taps out here at the Rockyard Tavern in Exeter Ca.
Central Coast Brewing (CCB) is so good! Their food and flare is phenomenal! They have 14 of their own craft beers on tap and 9 additional guest beers in case they dont offer anything you like. Id highly recommend the parm fries, pulled pork sliders and chicken sandwich! If you dont particularly enjoy beer, wine is also available. Inside and outdoor seating for both chilly and warm weather days.Modern updated interior and music playing at most times. They also have TVs playing some type of sports game on most occasions. Plenty of seating and parking available.
One of my favorite spots in town. Awesome fresh beers and the staff know their stuff. The food is good (not excellent, but better than is expected), and its a really good price especially. I love to come here, get a sample platter of some different beers, and get writing done on the outdoor patio.
Hi all. This place is amazing. Big selection of beers. Roomy inside and out. Best part of outside seating is its in the shade. Atmosphere is great soft background music. Service is ok a little slow but don’t let that persuade you. Only if you are in hurry. And if you are in a hurry then this isn’t the place. Chill sit back enjoy the beers.
Amazing beers, great food, love it all!
Waited more than half an hour for a to-go order and ended up with a mediocre burger with moldy onions on it. First burger I had here was great, the four or so I’ve had since haven’t been even close to measuring up. The service is either unbearably slow, they throw a chunk of leather on instead of a patty, or they use some weird cheese like Kraft singles. The beer isn’t anything to write home about either. Use your would be wait time to drive out to Sylvesters if you want a burger.
Great beer and food. Beers are all solid. PB stout on nitro is a must. The salsa is ridiculous!
Held mask on over my face. 2 employees told me I had to put mask ON. I left, they argued with friends that were still there. It got heated. Wont be back. Well patronize non socialist establishments.
First time at this location after having tried the beer at the Monterey St location a few months back. Food was great and beer is fantastic. Food was the Chili Verde pizza special, Chicken Sandwich, and Sriracha Burger. Beers were Tripel Dare, Export Lager, and Terrifico. Service was pleasant and knowledgeable. All around a great lunch spot.
Great food, great beers, but 45+ mins for a burger and fries. Wouldnt recommend for a lunch break.
Great staff, best place in slo to have a bite and get a drink.
Good food, great beer and service
Its a great looking facility, but Im giving 3 stars cause no one in our party really liked the beer :(
Awesome people, food and beer!
Love the lagers and my husband just loves every single beer on tab! You guys are great! Plus the food.... 100% is great!
Awesome beer, tasty food and a great atmosphere
They have such a large patio with plenty of shade. I chose to sit in the back patio and sipped on some kettle sour. This spot is a must if you are looking for a good beer.
Good food, good service, good atmosphere and great beer. I always have a good time at CCB.
While driving through, we chose this place for lunch specifically for the food menu. We waited half an hour for the kitchen to open (11:30, not 11) only to find that theres a separate, limited menu on Sundays that the website doesnt mention. When we got there at 11, the normal menu was still out, and no one stopped us from taking them.The beers were average. The best part of our meals were the fries. The impossible burger was overcooked, and the wings were okay, but unexpectedly expensive (6 for $10). We probably wont be returning next time were driving through.
Friendly service, great beer and food! First time here but wont be the last!
The back patio has amazing atmosphere and the beer was delish!!
Where to start?? The beer was cold and EXCELLENT!! But the miso glazed salmon salad surpassed all expectations! Yum..salmon done perfectly. Hubby had the best crispy fried chicken sandwich..far better than either Chick-fil-A and Popeyes! Righteous fries..all in all, a picture perfect experience
Food was decent. Beers were amazing. And the game lounge is cool when its slow. But I think they need to start a time sheet for the pool table. I went with my brother wanting to play but ended up leaving after 2 guys had the table for over an hour.
This is my favorite local brewery, and has been for a long time. Their tap list is always changing, with 15-20 CCB or guest beers at a time, and they do a great job with variety too. Ive always had good service, and its never been too crowded. They have pretty classic American pub food, but thats not necessarily a bad thing.
Love the new location. Friendly staff, great food, and of course excellent beers. The selection is really good. Not of just the CCB beers but so. E other local favorites as well. Also there is plenty of space for eating and a fun little game room. Families are welcome.
Its a fun pub to visit with friends any time of the week. Food is tasty and really hits the spot. Theyve got a lot of different games too, although its normally really packed so youll have to wait in line.
Enjoyed friendly service, variety of beer options, and flavorful menu to choose from with friends.Sliders and tater tots were great, and got a couple IPAs, red lagers, and a sour. 22 taps to choose from with Central Coast Brew options in addition to guest taps.Arcade area, outdoor seating, and large tables in indoor seating make this a great spot for friends and family with kids.Great spot to check out and grab a beer!
This place is super fun. Its a nice open environment that constantly had live music. On top of that, they have darts, pool, shuffleboard, and arcade games. And the beer and food is fantastic and reasonably priced.
The new place is awesome! They have a whole rec area with a pool table, dart boards, and stand up arcade machines. Beer is great as usual and they have guest taps here. The food was also fantastic. The only thing we were iffy on was the fries, they were a little heavy on the parmesan, but everything else was perfect and the service was great.
Great beer, yummy food, quick service. Classic Video games, board games, good seating options. We had fun, enjoyed happy hour after fun on the dunes in Pismo.
Huge taproom, 25 beers on tap as well as a handful of colab. brews which were awesome. Def get some food while you are here also. Service was awesome, beers were awesome and the games in the back are a good addition to have fun and enjoy some cold ones. Will def be back
No flights. No smaller sized glasses on guest taps (Seems silly. If you have on your own taps, why not on someone elses?). Music loud which makes for difficult conversation. Food good. Friendly workers. Beer on tap always GREAT.
Amazing food! Great beer! And friendly people!
Dramatic new location for a long-time local brewhouse. Shiny, fun, and a great place to meet up with friends (which we did). Love that small pours are available for all taps ... my wife likes beer, but doesnt need big pours.
This is an award winning brewery!!! But! They have decided to delve into food service and it is lacking. Great beer....slow (and cold) food service. Hoping they get a grip on it because we will be back ☺️
Good beer. Game room. Outside seating. Good was average bar food. Great place to hang out with friends.
Wow, just... I cant even. Leik omg.Seriously though best beer in the area. Great service and food. The ambiance is killer!
Great world class local brewery. They have the best beer and service. Beautiful brewery. Everything on their list is worth drinking.
Had a beer and some food. Good selection of beer. We had pizza, very good. Fries, good and garlicky. Sliders, not impressed. One thing slice of meat, and too much bread.
Lunch and beer were good, however the vegetarian tacos were extremely hot. Be sure and ask for the sauce to be on the side only.
Central coast brewering is a hustle n bustle.happening spot great happy hour great variety of beers many to choose from, and the openess... I highly recommend pet friendly kid friendly i trues the raspberry sunrise amazing
Some of the best bears in the area!
Great band, great time!
Delicious lager - Golden Glow - and yummy bar food, like tacos and pretzels and tots ! Oh my !
Fantastic selection of beers/IPAs which are most definitely worth a try. Great pizza options as well so double up with a pizza and beers option for a great experience!
Central Coast Brewing’s Higuera Street Restaurant and Tap House has really hit the nail on the head with great food, awesome beer and an atmosphere that promotes a fun time! If you like everything that makes the Central Coast great, you’ll feel right at home here!
I had a Radler, it was just like the ones in Germany!
Love the original spartan location. Tried out the new restaurant, south of downtown, and loved the vibe and small sample of food we had.
Delicious food! Had a flight of 6 beers and loved each one.
Weve been to the original location off of Monterey many time and thought we would try out this location.Crazy enough, we have driven by this location several times and didnt even see it! Shame on us. :) Its across from the shooting range. It has a one way entrance and one way exit for their parking lot. But there are several places to park at this location.When you walk in, you are greeted with the beer tanks, brewing and doing their thing to create the CCB goodness you get in your glass in the middle of the room. All seating is surrounding the tanks. To your left are the bar taps and to your right is the food area with a wood burning pizza oven.When we bellied up to the bar area, we were greeted right away and asked if we had been there before. Probably because when we came in we were gawking at how nice and open the place was.As always their beers were delicious!From our conversation, we will probably be coming to this location next time we are in the mood for a CCB beer.If you havent visited you should.
I like salmon. I like salmon salad a lot. Ive had a lot of salmon salads. The Miso Salmon Salad here was the best salmon and the best salmon salad Ive ever had and it was only $13! Perfectly cooked salmon with a crackly miso glaze on top of fresh greens with sliced almonds, julienned carrots and pickled red onion. I got the Soy Lime Vinnegrette dressing and it was amazing.Regardless of the food they have a great beer selection and quick, friendly service. Highly recommended.
This place is a far cry from the old CCB bar on Monterey. Its big, they have pizza, and they have the biggest guest tap list in town. Plus bar games like pool, darts, and shuffleboard. Good luck finding a seat on Fridays or Saturdays; better to go during the week unless you want to stand.
CCB reinvented itself a few years ago and now produces a consistently awesome lineup of beers. Brendan makes some of the best beers in California and is proof that a talented brewer can make all the difference for a small brewery. The Terrifico Mexican Lager is perfect on a hot day and the award-winning pale ales and IPAs are true to style and very tasty!
22 beer choices! plenty to eat too. easy to find off Madonna and Higuera
Excellent will be back
New location is amazing. Great food, games in the back, and the best part - beer, lots of delicious beer to choose from.
I know this is a work in progress. Hopefully they can pull-it off, but the food needs serious work. The pizza was like an open face quesadilla. That aint a workin. Place looks awesome though. I know it will get better they just opened up.
Great beer
Good selection of beer. Fun stuff to do there.
Central Coast used to be a really nice little brewery. I liked everything they brewed, including styles that I dont normally appreciate. The Stenner Creek Stout and the pale ales and IPAs were delicious but I also liked the Cali blond and some other lighter brews. Sadly, the beer has gone downhill over the last few years and I can no longer find anything I like on their menu. On my last visit, I tried four tasters (IPAs) and left them all unfinished, as each one had a weird, unpleasant flavor. Perhaps the new brewer they hired a few years ago just has different tastes than mine or perhaps they havent dealt well with expanding production and opening the new location. Whatever the cause, I used to look forward to coming here and now I will avoid it.I have only visited the new taproom once but the food was pretty bad too: my wife got a mushy, over-sweetened blob of pulled pork and I had a mediocre pizza. The new taproom itself is nice enough and the original brewery still lets you bring your own dinner from the restaurants down the street and enjoy the cozy tasting room. I feel bad posting a poor review for what used to be my favorite local brewery, but I have really been disappointed recently. Hopefully they will turn it around in the years to come.
This new location is awesome. Great beers and pub food.
Pretty solid beers at decent prices. Cool spot to hang.
First time here beer was great food was fabulous, pulled pork is out of this world
Go play ping pong, cornhole, and maybe even wager a beer over arcade games. But watch out for ryan he is a lil snappy. But Jessie makes up for it on the grill side!
The finest brewery in SLO now in a swank new, and much larger, location.
The new place looks great, games and beer, whats not to like.
Very nice place lots of room spread out
Great beers and they had the Dodgers game on! Win in my book!
Good beers with counter service snacks, quick bites!
