We stopped in for a taste and had the best time. Got there in time for Happy Hour.... We all had something different to eat and it was very tasty. We had the Mushroom Flatbread and it was so gooood!!!!! Friendly service and other customers. We had a great time. BB King was being played and there was a lot of fun stuff to look at. Next time we come up to Big Bear we will be visiting them again. Thank You for a fun and tasty visit read more

Ok, the wine selection is good, and the music was good, but don't come here to eat. They have a food menu, but the portions are minuscule. I had the stalest "soft" pretzel ever. My cheese fondue came out as chocolate instead. Boneless wings plate was predominantly carrots. Good beer selection- but don't come hungry. read more

We are visiting Big Bear for this week. We decided to stop by to listen to the live music and see what kind of beer and wines. We enjoyed the place because it's very welcoming. read more

Barrel 33 - Beer flight - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

We came in for some wine tasting and this is the only wine bar in the entire Big Bear. Place is very spacious with two rooms and quite cozy. They serve a good varieties of food. We did a few rounds of tastings along with lunch / snack food. I liked all the whites especially rose. Hubby liked his Cabernet as usual. Flatbread, cheese plate, olives and burrata salad were fresh and delicious. Our bartenders were so friendly and pleasant the entire time. They had good knowledge of the wines. We bought a couple bottles home of course. I was glad that the wine tasting experience was so much fun and relaxing the same time. We will definitely stop by this place next time we are in town! read more

Came here for some wine and to try the baked brie. The baked brie was delicious. The waitress asked if we wanted anything else, I asked for another glass......15-20min goes by and nothing.....walked up to order one and it wasn't on the bill, so she just LEFT....... nice place just kind of annoying about that. i also bought a bottle of wine and the employee said it was $40-45 for the bottle i said ok...got receipt and it was $60.... i don't think i would have bought it....i should have returned it............. UGH read more

Joanne was amazing! Honest, upfront and gave us the best wines to taste. The food is great too! The Twisted Tasting Tray is awesome, big fluffy pretzel with charcuterie filling the gaps. Mediterranean salad was delicious and presentation was wonderfully colorful and intricate. The pear and Brie toasted sandwich was perfect! If you like less sweet maybe substitute the pepper jelly but I like the fig jam that comes with it standard. Their beer board makes me love the days before the IPA craze ruined craft beers for me. Lovely place wonderful people. My new favorite spot in Big Bear now! read more

Barrel 33 - Beer wine and cocktail specials board - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

Warning: these reviews are being manipulated by the business owner. I made a negative review pointing out their 5% discount for leaving a 5-star review, which is against Yelp TOS. They responded, claiming I was lying. I added a photo, and the business owner had the review removed. My party ordered some drinks and some food. The drinks were fine, the food was lackluster and very overpriced. They have a fun menu with fondue and mulled wine. The ambience was generic but warm, with wine-themed decorations. Service was good, and there was live music. Deceiving people is not OK. Original review: This place is fine but they are manipulating their Yelp reviews which is against TOS and morally wrong. read more

We had Alicia as our bartender. And she was amazing. It was such a beautiful day but got rained on. We stopped by first to share a bottle before dinner. But came to find out dinner reservations were grim, and she was so warm when we came back after our failed attempt. She knew our order had been hustling all night. We'll definitely be back, even if it's just to visit her!!! read more

I love barrel 33 Vibiana and Joanne they are extremely knowledgeable in wine and helpful it was very clean and well kept. Highly recommended

What a wonderful afternoon we had! Joanne was such a knowledgeable and hospitable host for our wine tasting, she went above and beyond with the pairings adding special touches and taking note of what we liked. More than that the company was exceptional, we even had live music. It really was a truly local experience we stayed for hours and could have easily stayed longer. The gluten free options were just delicious AND they weren't just dog friendly, they were dog enthusiastic. Our pup was treated just as well if not better than us, she got her own song sung for her and lots of attention. We will definitely be back! read more

Barrel 33 in Big Bear is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a cozy, welcoming atmosphere perfect for enjoying a glass of wine (or a flight.... Or two bottles...) The wine selection is fantastic, with options that showcase regional vendors. Their food menu is equally impressive featuring ingredients that perfectly complement the drinks. We ordered three beer flights and split between two people (two are pictured and then we wanted a third). We chose a few and let our server surprise us for the rest.. we loved everything we drank. We also split a pear and Brie sandwich which came with side options (we chose sweet potato waffle fries). The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. If you're in Big Bear, this spot is a must-visit! Highly recommended for anyone looking to relax, enjoy amazing food and drink, and chat with locals. It's family owned! read more

This is one of our favorite places on Big Bear. I forgot to make a review last time and couldn't do it in Idaho. The staff is amazing, the beers, wines, and ciders are amazing. I have had the large pretzel in the past and it's amazing. This time my wife and I ordered the chicken brie with sweet potato fries. The service was great and the sandwiches were great. This place is worth visiting, just for some wine or beer. Every time we are in Big Bear we stop by. read more

Nice little spot in downtown Big Bear village. Staff was super friendly. Love the small town vibes. Very welcoming in there. I tried a sangria flight and the Tinto wine was my favorite one.

Rude waitress. Horrible service. Was told they were out of almost everything. Was told to ask for a recommend on the wine instead of using their list...she knew nothing about wine frankly. We got up and left it was so ridiculous. Do NOT recommend this place at all. read more

Variety of food was good. Great people and service, live music was a plus. Nice selection of California wines! We will be back. The seltzers were great. read more

We are a large party from Hawaii and San Marcos walking into this warm and wonderful smelling venue showcasing wines, sweets and other delectable items! Located in Big Bear Village across from Super Mart and next to Dave's Whisky, we were enthusiastically welcomed by Joanne, a beauty in black hat with a pretty feather and sparkling smile. She was flying solo but with our large group she gave us the BEST service we've had in a very long time and that's saying something. That delicious smell that intrigued me upon entering was Gluhwein, a German version of hot toddy with cinnamon - piping hot which was perfect after our walk through the snow flurries and 31* temp. Feeling a little hungry, she has a nice menu to choose from - a variety to appease everyone's palate- from salads to flatbreads, giant pretzels with cheese and mustard, sweet potato fries, cauliflower puffs on the spicy side with dipping sauce, a beautiful charcuterie tray, grilled cheese and much more, plus sweets like carrot cake. My son's fiancee also ordered the wine flight with nice pours which we had fun passing around to try while sitting at one of the corner groupings which were comfortably placed throughout both sides of the shoppe. The ambience was casually elegant and quite cozy. We stayed for a couple of hours enjoying the selection of cool tunes Joanne had selected and Joanne kept checking in to make sure we were doing okay or to share some interesting tidbit of Big Bear history. Joanne is the gem of this gem of a wine shoppe and we shall return on our next trip to Big Bear. She also has selection of clothing, wine accessories, chocolates, sodas/juices and jewelry! Thank you sweet Joanne for all your gracious hospitality to our large group and toddler! read more

My husband, dog, and I came in here on New Year's Eve because they were the only place open that was dog friendly during the rain (all the patios were closed). They welcomed us with open arms! The ladies were so kind and welcoming, the tap selection was great, and the mushroom flatbread was delicious. Everything was really nice and the service made the experience even better. We'll definitely be back! read more

Had an amazing wine tasting experience and phenomenal service/hospitality provided by Joanne. They offer locally (Temecula) wines by the best wineries in the area, as well as several from Paso and Napa. It's a great spot to stop in, enjoy good company, and save the drive to Temecula. Fun items for sale inside as well (jewelry and snacks) that the wife appreciated as well. As a small business owners ourselves, we give a strong thumbs up and well done. Thanks again. read more

Went in late afternoon and enjoyed a wine tasting and charcuterie board. All excellent. Staff was attentive and nice.

We arrived in Big Bear around dinner time but decided to order in instead of going out. We had Barrel 33 delivered. I had the prosciutto salad, and my wife had the Mediterranean flatbread. The flat read was delicious and came with a nice side salad. The prosciutto salad was amazing. Fresh greens, sun-dried tomatoes, and a sweet balsamic reduction as dressing with a big buratta and prosciutto. We were so impressed with the quality of the food that we took a trip over to the restaurant to check it out and have some more of their food. The restaurant is half wine bar/tasting room and half restaurant. There's a few tables, several bar counters, and several seating areas with couches and chairs. The staff was super friendly and helpful with any wine or beer you're looking for. The food was amazing, again. We got a charcuterie board, bacon wrapped dates, and a wine flight. Delicious We'll be back. read more
