    Onion rings
    Mallory J.

    Came here for dinner while staying in Mariposa for a wedding. It was soooo good. We got a beer flight, onion rings, bacon bbq burger, and buffalo wings. The wings were perfectly saucy, crispy, and meaty just how we like them. The burger's bun was so soft and the bacon was thick. Garlic fries and onion rings were crispy and perfectly cooked. The ranch seemed house made. Overall great choice, and all the girls working were friendly and there was great service overall.

    Great roadside stop on the way into Yosemite wth a great sandwich menu. The whitewashed brick walls make you feel like you're back a 100 years or so, and besides the TV and air conditioning, you might feel like you've stopped in after a long day panning for gold. In terms of taste, the garlic fries delivered gold-rush flavor with a perfectly crispy coating and very freshly pressed garlic. Many of the sandwiches come on sourdough, and after having fresh from Boudin in San Francisco, this bread really compares well. My wife ordered the wings, and they are meaty! We sat at the bar to watch England vs Argentina in the World Cup, and our server was helpful and engaging. Overall, I recommend this place for great food and service.

    Y'all, this place is bomb! I wasn't really sure what to expect because I didn't check it out beforehand at all; my partner told me they'd have good beer and good food, so I went in blind! It's cute inside, a small bar area and a bigger dining space. Shabby-Chic Cowboy vibes. It was seat yourself, but they run your food and drinks. (Dinner is full service though.) I loved my beer--the White Wolf--which wasn't overbearing with the fruit at all! It was perfectly balanced and delightfully refreshing on this hot summer day! But it was the 1850 fries that stole the show!! That smoky pub cheese?! I want a 5 gallon bucket's worth to take home with me next time. The fries are SO garlicky, the steak bites perfectly seasoned! You gotta get an order. Trust me.

    Amazing spot and always a great time! We love that they're dog friendly and we enjoy the beautiful days on their patio. Drinks and food are amazing, staff is always very friendly! The pups enjoyed the dog bowl with a puppy patty (plain burger patties)! Went with the Apple cider Paloma and Diablo margarita today, whooooh, some heat on that last one! Great beers too! Very good and a great place to stop!

    1850 Brewing Company in Mariposa was excellent. The food was outstanding, the cider was surprisingly good, and the service was stellar. A special thank you to Sheila, who was not even our server but kept checking on us, answering questions, and making us feel welcome. I honestly thought she might be an owner because she cared that much. The over all atmosphere was welcoming and like everyone knew you or was willing to get to know you. I had the Steak House Burger and could only eat half because it was huge. My girlfriend had the 1850 Fries loaded with steak, cheese, parmesan, garlic, and more, and they were amazing. You simply must eat here. I also included a photo with Sheila and my friend Kevin who also had joined us for the meal.

    First time eating at 1850 even after driving through Mariposa each year for the past 7 years to go to Yosemite. Honestly just never noticed it from the road and the next door burger place gets all the advertising and is quite apparent. We came on a Sunday afternoon after leaving Yosemite and found a comfy corner booth with AC right above us. Seat yourself and then go order at the front. We ordered and drinks came quickly and our food was out fairly soon after. We ordered way too much food as the "small plates" are basically entree size. The salmon cakes surprised me and were my favorite. I heard from those dining with me that the burger was delicious, the steak was decent and the small plates were tasty. Grabbed a couple mix packs of beers on the way out as well! Stop by if you're driving through Mariposa!

    Service was quick and friendly. The portion sizes are large so make sure you're hungry! But the food was really great, especially after spending a day hiking in Yosemite! Highly recommend stopping in for a bite! I got the Mac and cheese, it was so cheesy and gooey

    Went here to watch world cup. friendly bartender, fast service, great food. 10/10 recommend for a quick stop. try the rueben it's yummyyyy

    Got the chicken wings and ruben sandwich. Absolutely yum with great service, clean bar, and lovely atmosphere. So glad we stopped here, thank you 1850

    Don't worry fooled. This is only half of the Hot Shot with Garlic fries. Delicious!

    First and foremost Mariposa does a great job at not only being my favorite little mountain town, but it also has incredible food. 1850 is no exception. From the delicious blackberry muddled Mocktail mule to the delicious hazy my guy got and just wait, the food. The restaurant itself is not small, but not big. I say that in a good way. You can hear the multitude of conversations taking place between what appeared to be some locals, but a lot of tourists. Being a town that's directly en route to your trip to Yosemite, I HIGHLY suggest this be one of your foodie spots. The staff is insanely friendly. Our waitress was nice and did a great job not making me feel 'extra' when I asked for the burger to be cut, she went above and beyond and had both our dinners split into 2. She understood our assignment ( order different things so they can be split and tasted by both my boyfriend and myself.) So, the food. When I say, those Ahi Tuna Nachos were very flavorful, I mean it. If wasabi isn't your thing, don't get it. If it is, yum yum. We ordered the Hot Shot burger with the upgraded garlic fries. The only 'negative' I can say about the entire meal is the burger did have a lot going on (in the best way) and maybe that's why it stood out more, but the patty, noticeably great quality, lacked salt. I'm not an add salt to everything kind of girl but I believe this would have taken it over the top if it had salt and pepper more blended into the patty. Tip: if you like a kick, order this. If you can't handle spice, opt-out. And if you love garlic, spend the extra change and upgrade those fries to the garlic. You won't regret it. Lastly, the surf and turf. The New York was cooked beautifully, as was the shrimp. Delicious. But what stole the show? The rosemary cream sauce that topped the steak. One of the best sauces I've ever had. It was such a great asset to the steak. Also, the mashed potatoes were full of flavor, creamy, and with some of that rosemary sauce, oh lord. Thank you 1850 for giving us an amazing anniversary weekend getaway meal!

    One bite into a piece of fish... I was rewarded with total goodness!

    1850 Restaurant and Brewery in Mariposa, Ca is an amazing restaurant... or is it an amazing micro brewery? Whatever... the food is amazing, and the beer is a favorite among local beer lovers in Mariposa, Merced and Tuolumne Counties, and in everywhere in the southern gold country in the Sierra Nevada foothills. As you enter the restaurant, you're meeted and greeted by a friendly hostess. 1850 Restaurant and Brewery operates on what I call the "taqueria format." Alright... I'll explain... You walk up to the counter and you're greeted by a friendly staff member, You check out the menu from the overhead menu - in this case the printed menu - you order your food, you pay for it, in return you receive a "number." and You seat yourself at the open table of your choice. When your order is ready, it will be brought to you by a friendly server. On this Friday morning shortly after opening, the restaurant wasn't busy, so I didn't receive a "number," as my friendly server, Shelby, remembered me. From the "Lunch" section of the menu, I went with "Fish and Chips," which is one of my favorite meals, any time of day, any day of the week. Three generous fillets of cod fish were seasoned, battered, and perfectly deep fried, and placed on coleslaw. Oh my... such a perfect mixture of tender, white fish, and delicious batter! The fish was seated on a mixture of coleslaw and cabbage, which made for a beautiful presentation, and delightful dining. The slice on lemon made today's lunch even more delicious! The "chips" were basically fries, medium size, seasoned and deep fried to a perfect, crispy golden brown on the outside, and tender and juicy inside. Oh my! Simply delicious, and a great side to the fish. The tartar sauce that was included as a condiment wasn't your mom's every day garden variety from a bottle, as it was seasoned with dill, along with a touch of mustard, and was thick, creamy and simply delicious! Talk about a great dip for the fish! Simply delicious. Oh yes! ... I'd enjoy this amazing dip for everything, any day of the week! 1850 Restaurant and Brewery serves delicious fish and chips in beautiful Mariposa, located near the southern end of CA Highway 49, and the gold country. This is Five Star Dining any way you look at it!

    Death by chocolate
    Joyan S.

    We stopped here on the way back from Yosemite, and stopped by the place as they offered outdoor seating for our dog. I ordered the grilled chicken and my wife got the steak salad. The service was fast, and the food was very flavorful. I was definitely surprised by this restaurant in this small town. For dessert we had 'death by chocolate'. The cake was decently moist, but could use a scoop of ice cream on the side Overall would definitely recommend this place if you are driving through Mariposa on your way to Yosemite

    Patio dining on a lovely autumn night.

    I was here with a work group for dinner this week. We took up the outside patio. I was concerned about dining outside at night on a patio in November, but the weather was perfect, and the outdoor heaters kept the space very comfortable. Lighting was fairly dim, but added to the atmosphere. Parking was limited, but I found a spot without much trouble. I ordered the salmon with brown rice and zucchini. The salmon was cooked perfectly and was wonderfully seasoned. There was a green tzatziki sauce on the salmon that had a very complex flavor--a mix of pesto, lemon, and something else. I kept thinking I tasted pine or juniper, but suspect it was just a combination of flavors. While it wasn't a bad flavor, the confusing or overly complex flavor of it did detract from the enjoyability of the perfectly cooked salmon. The zucchini was served in large wedges. They were al dente and also perfectly seasoned. The brown rice was a bit dry--but typical for most brown rice dishes, and was mildly seasoned. Portions were good. Because we were with a large group and our table was served last, we did have to wait a while for everything. I'm not holding this against the restaurant--it is hard to coordinate multiple tables at once, and they did check in with us many times to refill drinks and make sure we didn't feel abandoned. Service was good overall. At this point in time, appetizers cost between $10 and $20, and meals range from low $20's to mid/high $40's. It is a bit more than I usually spend on a meal, but everyone I spoke to, whether they ordered a burger and fries, a steak salad, the salmon or the tri tip, all enjoyed their meals. If you're looking for a hearty meal that is more than fast food, and you're looking for something with bold flavors, check this place out!

    18th October 2024 review- Good restaurant for a dinner when in Mariposa We were on our way to Yosemite accommodations and decided to stop here for a bite There was a little wait, but we used the time to check out the beautiful cars - there was a car show (which we missed :( The beer flights were good, our chicken sandwich was juicy and the kids enjoyed their Mac & Cheese

    The best sandwich i've ever had!! Turkey club with an awesome twist!

    Does anyone know if they will be open on Thanksgiving day, 2025?

    What are the vegan dinner choices, please?

    Hey, they have lots of different options for vegans but for burgers we do have vegan patties that they can put on any of their burgers it's a mix of black beans and sprouts and I've had many people I know ( even ones who primarily eat meat !!! ) say…

    I visited here on a family trip to Yosemite. The best way to describe the restaurant is quaint. I…read moreshould say that is what you'd think to call it at first glance. The restaurant has an old school vibe where hearty cuts of meat and stiff drinks are plentiful. I had a porterhouse steak which was made perfectly seasoned and as requested, medium rare. My Old Fashioned was made perfectly. The service was attentive yet not hovering. This is a definite favorite for my next trip up to Yosemite.

    We stopped in here for dinner tonight. The restaurant is clean and well kept and the table settings…read morewere immaculate. The menu is fairly large, and reasonably robust. One thing that puzzled us a tiny bit was the "specials" appeared to be identical to menu options, but no harm, no foul. The service was very friendly, knowledgable and very well executed. It was accurate and reasonably quick. The food was outstanding. We started with very nice small dinner salads, and the garlic bread brought to the table was well done. We had Chicken Alfredo with Feta, and the Rib Eye Steak. Both were sensational (the chicken benefitted from a squeeze of lemon). The portions were large, and the preparation was perfect. The steak was exactly as ordered, and was the best steak we've had in some time. The chicken was cooked well and the pasta was perfect. The vegetables were great, seasoned and steamed, retaining a bit of crunch. Desert was an event! We had the cheesecake, which was very good, and the chocolate mocha ice cream pie. Oh, my goodness! That pie! It was at least 5" high, and covered a desert plate edge to edge, and it was a coffee and chocolate fantasy with a toffee crust! Out of this world! Simply epic. The only photo we managed was the salad. Everything else we were too busy digging in to! If you're in (or passing through) Mariposa, by all means, go! We certainly will be back.

    Unfortunately, we had a horrible experience at Miners'…read more I stopped in with my three hungry children after a long day of travel. The experience got off to a rough start when we waited five minutes before anyone acknowledged us or told us where to sit. Once seated, we waited an hour for our food. During that time, we learned that multiple menu items were unavailable. Given the long wait, we expected the food to be worth it, but when it finally arrived, much of it was poor quality and not edible. The most upsetting part of the evening was that our children were already tired and hungry from the long wait, and the overall atmosphere became increasingly uncomfortable. Nearby diners began making negative comments about our children, which left everyone feeling upset and unwelcome. After waiting so long and having such a poor experience, we were surprised that we were still charged for food that was largely left uneaten. I understand that restaurants can have difficult nights, staffing shortages, or unexpected issues. It was clear that the staff were going through a hard time. However, between the lack of service, long wait, unavailable menu items, disappointing food, and uncomfortable atmosphere, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences our family has had in a long time. After leaving, we ate at another restaurant in town and mentioned our experience to a local resident who said she had lived in Mariposa for more than 30 years and had repeatedly had negative experiences at Miners'. Hearing that made us feel like our experience may not have been an isolated incident. I hope management takes steps to improve both the customer experience and food quality going forward.
