Chinese New Year celebration at California Adventure park. Ordered Tsing Tao beer, ginger milk tea, bbq pork bun and almond cookie. Tsing Tao beer ($6.75): not sure if they usually have this here but basically it's Chinese beer. Ginger milk tea ($3.69): the tea was not strong enough but it was kinda good with a hint of ginger. BBQ pork bun ($4.99 each or $8.99 for two): super expensive small bun for $5.00. I can get 3 buns for less than $5.00 at dim sum places. The bun was okay but maybe because I was starving. It's also weird how it's served with sweet chili sauce instead of regular chili sauce. The bbq pork itself was already sweet.. Almond cookies ($3.69): not your typical almond cookie from the supermarket. They were more like American cookie with almond extract and they were big and chewy. I kinda like how they use Chinese take-out box for the packaging. Funny how the pricing is different at California Adventure during Chinese New Year celebration. The bbq pork bun is $5.25 and almond cookies are $4.00 if you buy them from the cart vendor instead of Bayside Brews. They are only 30 seconds walk from each other and you get the exact same things. QUICK TIP: NO ANNUAL PASS DISCOUNT FOR ALCOHOL. 3.5 stats!! Bayside Brews is kinda yummylicious!! read more

My boyfriend and I brought his two teenage sons with us to Disneyland in September, and our weekend started out at Disney CA Adventure. This is where we landed at Bayside Brews about halfway through the day. We each enjoyed a cold, Ace cider ($10 ea.) under the shade of their patio. The patio is all-ages so the boys sat and talked to the girl at the table next to us while we relaxed our feet and minds. The line was long but it moved fast and Ace Cider is delicious so we were happy with the restful break in the hot day! read more

You know how when you are at Disneyland and they always tell you at the end of the line how long the line will take you to get to the front of the ride and board? they should have that for this vender! This was by far the longest line of all the attractions and it was for beer! While in line we made some friends and even checked the mobile order- which proved to be just as long. I think next time I need a beer I will need to find another attraction to purchase from- or they can re-invent the fast pass for the beer line. read more

I was shocked to see that beer and wine was being sold in Disney California Adventure... according to the friendly folks at Bayside Brews, DCA was originally designed for older folks, and as such has a liquor license throughout the park (Club 33 in Disneyland is the only place that serves alcohol there... and it's only limited to that particular club). So, when I got my beer, I had to ask, "I can walk around with this?" And yes, you can... just as long as you stay within DCA's confines. Automatic 5-star! Granted, the beer selection can be better (though they have Blue Moon - yes!), and it's $7 a cup... but it's beer in Disneyland! Bottoms up! read more

The novelty (and it seems for some, utility) of being able to purchase a cold, frosty beer at the Happiest Place on Earth makes Bayside Brews a popular spot in this corner of California Adventure. In addition to Karl Strauss beers, they serve several other well-known ales and lagers, along with a few other odds and ends like snacks. Many folks seem to like the pretzels. They are good, but I believe a part of their attraction is the fairly reasonable price relative to other Disney eateries. For around ten bucks, your 21+ year old self can delight in a cold beer and a sweet cream cheese-filled pretzel. Try doing that at the Angels game a few miles away. Interestingly, the conspicuous Karl Strauss beer truck seems to be more crowded and better-known... Hardly a line over on this side of the park, which may also be due to the KS truck being in the midst of the food court/wharf area. If you're meandering about in the heat, somewhere between Goofy's Flying School and the miscreant, brain cell-destroying soundtrack of Ariel's Undersea (Mis)Adventure... And you gotta' fever for a cold adult beverage in a place decidedly designed for the kids... Bayside Brews has the amber elixir to slake your thirst. Only seven more hours until the park closes, dad... And I'm sure you DVR'ed the Colts game, right? read more

This is the place to pick up a beer to accompany your corn dog from Corn Dog Castle (http://www.yelp.com/biz/corn-dog-castle-anaheim-3?hrid=iwNrqLAafjPNnsTbHLaPeA). Then grab a seat with a view under the Silly Symphony Swings (http://www.yelp.com/biz/silly-symphony-swings-anaheim?hrid=WIzq6kqS19TzhFNGqDJ9sw) to enjoy your eats and drinks. They have a nice selection of beers and wines, including Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA and Blue Moon. read more

This place is located at the Paradise Pier in Disney's California Adventure next to the Silly Symphony Swings! It's one of my favorite places to stop by and get a nice cold beer, on tap, and have a pretzel. They have a good selection of beer here. On my last trip here, I noticed that they now have Michelada's available for purchase and they're actually pretty good! You can expect to pay theme park pricing on beer, but it's definitely worth it on a nice hot day! This location also sells non alcoholic drinks such as, fountain drinks, Powerade, and water. You could also purchase a pretzel if you get hungry. They have the Jalapeno Cheese Filled, Cream Cheese fills which is really popular, and the original Mickey Mouse pretzels! It's a great place to try some craft beers which is what keeps us coming back here. read more

This review is just for the cream cheese filled pretzel. If you're in Disneyland and want to try it, go to the Refreshment Corner! In DCA, Bayside Brews is the only place I know that sells cream cheese pretzels. I'm sure there are other places...I'm going to need to do more hunting around to find out! As for the pretzel, it is so good. It's not salty as you might think. It's more on the sweet side because of the cream cheese that they use. The pretzel also came out hot and crunchy, which made it so much better! They sadly don't take AP discounts :( read more

Bayside Brews - Pomegranate margarita - Bars Near Me - Anaheim, California

Great to get a cheese filled jalapeño pretzel and a cold beer. No micro brew here but they have the standard Blue Moon, Bud Light, Wine and Sangria. There is a seating area across from the stand where you can enjoy your beer or some benches behind it that look out on the "bay". read more

Bayside Brews - "It's so good once it hits your lips" - Bars Near Me - Anaheim, California

Made a trip to Bayside Brews last weekend and seeing that it was gonna be a hot day, we decided to kick off our day with some beers before hitting up some rides. The great thing about Bayside Brews is that it is really just geared towards beers, so there is no real hold up as far as people waiting to get fancy drinks or food made. There are some snacks like pretzels if you are looking to get some quick food though. The selection of beer is decent with the usuals including some craft beer from Karl Strauss. The Pixarfest promo did offer a Pomegranate margarita which I did not try. What I did try was the michelada which is made with Pacifico Beer and it was okay for me. However, I though the michelada at Lamplight Lounge was better since they used Modelo instead and it was the same price ($9.00). But if you're looking for a quick beer in the Pixar area, this would probably be your go-to. read more

Literally, a stones throw away from Corn Dogs Castle. Mmmmm beer and corn dogs. :) I don't think I've ever seen a line here. If I recall correctly, they had a couple of the Karl Strauss beers on tap in addition to Blue Moon, Sierra Nevada, and Bud Light. They also offer pretzels to go along with that nice ice cold beer. So make sure you stop by to grab a cold one and be on your happy way to your next attraction in California Adventure. Til next time, cheers! read more

You don't get too crazy in terms of craft beers here. They have the standard set up of Sierra Nevada and your basic Shocktops offered up, but at around $8 a plastic cup, you're essentially paying what you would at most clubs anyway. Is it worth the cost to walk around Paradise Pier with a cold beer in your hand? Yeah, I think that it fits in line perfectly with it. I stick to the Sierra Nevada Torpedo, it's probably as microbrewed craft beer as you'll get inside the Disney theme parks. Sure Karl Struass is over yonder, but I really dig the taste of the Torpedo over anything else offered. Service is quick and there hasn't ever been a time when I've wanted a beer here and there was a line past one person in front of me. So that should tell you that the service is quick enough that they can handle the demand.. or maybe it's just that this side of the pier is a bit of a ghost town and/or most people don't have much of a drinking problem that they actually need a beer while at the park.... Oh well. read more

I probably would never have stopped by Bayside Brews if I hadn't know that this is the ONLY place in DCA where you can find the cream cheese-filled pretzel treat. There are several other pretzel stands within the park, but you have to travel all the way down past Toy Story Mania and the Midway games to this location whenever you have a cream cheese pretzel craving ... which I do, from time to time. Others may frequent this location because of the beer (from Karl Strauss, Bud Light, etc.) and other delights, but I go for the pretzel alone. I've never really experienced a long line, as the Boardwalk area is pretty spacious and never super packed, like other areas of DCA are. You can find other pretzels here, like the original Mickey Mouse pretzel, as well as the jalapeno cheese-filled pretzel. I have tried the original Mickey Mouse pretzel before and it was yummy--if I'm getting pretzels, I prefer soft, chewy, fresh pretzels over the crunchy rods that you usually find in party mix--but there's just something super addictive about the cream cheese-filled pretzel. If I've got a craving for it, a regular pretzel just doesn't satisfy. This cream cheese-filled wonder costs $3.79 but it's worth every penny (and the trip down to the Boardwalk, which can feel very far if you're walking from the "Soarin' Over California" ride). You'll get it immediately after you pay, and chances are, it's been sitting in the warmer for a while with the other pretzels. But all that doesn't matter once you take one bite. You'll get the soft, chewy, doughy pretzel exterior, and then you'll taste that subtle sweetness of the cream cheese. Take another bite deeper into the pretzel and the thick--soft in consistency, but not super liquidy--cream cheese filling will start to ooze out, but it won't be a mushy mess that gets all over the pretzel exterior. Rather, you get a nice blend of both in each, and the sweetness of the cream cheese doesn't overwhelm the starchy pretzel exterior. What a great combo. Just make sure, though--before leaving the Boardwalk--that you actually HAVE received what you ordered. Once, when the boyfriend and I ordered a cream cheese-filled pretzel and started to leave Bayside Brews, he started chowing down ... and immediately realized that his pretzel was NOT filled with cream cheese, but we caught it in time to make a switch and get a pretzel that had the appropriate filing. Never hurts to double check before you walk all the way back to the DCA entrance and realize that your pretzel has no filling! read more

They have blue moon. What's not to like? Beers are 7 bucks a cup. Hey, it's Disneyland...What do you expect? This brew area is closer to Corn Dog Castle. You might want to chomp on on of those while drinking. Service is always friendly. -Give it a try! read more

I usually don't take the time to write a bad review because I generally don't feel the need to but yesterday I experienced the worst customer service from Megan B around 6:30 on 8.28.2021. It was my birthday weekend and my boyfriend and I went to get Micheladas from here because they're my favorite. She automatically ignored me and asked my boyfriend but I was paying and I wanted to splurge for my birthday so I asked her if we could get two micheladas. From the get-go, she just looked at me as if I was the most annoying person ever which I ignored because who knows I'm a server and I've had long days too anyways I also asked for the jalapeno cheddar pretzel and I believe she misheard me because she kept telling me there were no sides of jalapeno cheddar in the snarkiest way until another nicer girl tried telling me the same thing but less aggressive. We went around in circles until my boyfriend had to tell her to stop and read off the name of the item word for word for her to understand. I feel this is a tad ridiculous with all the money you spend for passes and just for someone to make you feel ashamed to order. I'm usually the shy person who does not want to order and let my boyfriend order for us but I was just so excited it's been almost 3 years since I've been here and also one of the first times we went out during the pandemic. read more

Not sure if it's like this all the time, but when I went the line was HELLA LONG. One of the workers had to swing the line around to the back of the place. I guess I should have expected it, because at Disney/CA Adventure, there's a line for literally everything. But once I had my Blue Moon in hand, I felt a whole lot better. And it definitely helped with the nearly 2 hour line for Toy Story Mania. :D read more

One of my favorite spots to grab a beer at. It's perfectly situated so that I can grab one on the way to toy story mania and have a beer and pretzel while in line. The line here is never long and the staff is friendly. They can tell you about the beers you are unfamiliar with and try to explain it's taste. Usually, my go to brew over here is blue moon complete with the orange slice. The Karl strauss seasonal is also pretty good. The mickey mouse pretzel is good and the perfect side to my beer. It's sad that they don't acknowledge the Disney pass discount, but it's perfectly understandable. I love the fact that ca adventure has alcohol and Bayside brews is always a beer spot for me once I hit this park. read more

Whatever you do, don't rely on mobile order. Awful system, wait ends up being longer than regular line

Alright. So this is a beer and wine stand on the pier that serves plastic cups, therefore you are allowed to walk around the park with it. This is a spectacular thing. You are allowed 2 per person, much like a baseball park. They also serve snacks, like pretzels. For beer they serve bud light, Sierra Nevada, and blue moon plus a few others. For wine they offer a few in each type. I love them because they serve Bogle chardonnay. Yes. The only downside is there can be a pretty long line, it's an awkward line up area, and it's usually in the sun. Other than that, it gets the job done. read more

This place is hidden and not to busy most of the time. My wife and I always come here for a drink when we are in the park. Ill have an IPA or a lighter beer if its hot. She always gets the sangria and loves it! read more

Bayside Brews - Bars Near Me - Anaheim, California

Love, love, love their Micheladas! It hits the spot on hot Southern California day! The mix is perfect and I love the extra Tajín they put on the rim. So damn good! We take the kids to the Silly Symphony ride and then my husband and I get our Micheladas. Very tasty! read more

Ultimate place for a beer and pretzel in the land of disney :) good selection and just so darn tasty. Jalapeno cheese is my fav :) Only wish they opened earlier ;) read more

Not as good as A Cowboy dog from Rice Eccles Stadium, the home of the Utah Utes! However, it was really good for Disneyland food. ;) read more

Bayside brews Offers mobile ordering, which was great because the regular line was very long. I mobile ordered & my order was ready to be picked up in 10 minutes. When I got to the front of the line the gentleman went to serve my drinks, came back and told me that the beer I selected was out and he had to change it. We waited and waited and waited, the line behind us got longer and people were getting upset because mobile ordering was now taking longer than regular ordering. They finally gave us our beer drinks, and as we were walking I asked my husband how his beer was and he's said, room temperature and flat . After waiting so long it's ridiculous that the beers flat and warm, so we went back to ask for a different beer that was cold and not flat. The woman working told us that she could only give us what was left in our cups after waiting for 15 minutes for them to change the keg, to be given flat beer and then to act like we drank so much was ridiculiois! 2 drinks from the beer and she acted like we drank 1/2 of it. Disneyland has lost its customer service and magic. We didn't want anything free, just what we paid for in a timely manor. read more

One of the better beer stands in CA adventure park. Just carrying Sierra Nevada Torpedo says a lot!

Finally, a place at Disney where the pretzels are soft and fresh! There seemed to be a semi long line but it went by pretty quickly and carries a decent selection of beer. $7 for a Blue Moon for a 16oz cup. read more

The service was fast, the pretzels warm gooey goodness & the beer is cold. What else is there?

Obligatory review for one of my second favorite parts of California Adventure. I always have to rush the last few ounces because daughter wanr to go on toy story midway mania... Beer helps my score. Proven fact. read more

Great beer choices and nothing beats walking around California Adventure with a beer in your hand.

There aren't many places to find a beer in the Disneyland parks, but Bayside Brews is one of them. While waiting for our kids to ride the carousel, I ordered a Seasonal brew by Karl Strauss Brewing Company. This is one of the relatively few locations where it can be obtained, so it was a priority to find it here. I wasn't sure of the exact style - it was either a brown ale or a stout. Anyway, good quality beer, although I regretted that I didn't enjoy it as much as I should have after getting a bit dizzy from theme park rides. read more

Drinks are great here, but several times we have experienced the worst customer service at this same exact spot. Few months ago, we even spoke to a manager about it, thinking it might be taken care of, but no. There's always new people working there and it's like part of the training there is to teach the people that work there how to be rude as possible. Every time we've gone there, there's one person working, and three people standing around. The last time we were there, I asked the cashier a simple question and she gave me complete attitude for no reason because she was the only one working and the line was super long, But there's other employees standing behind her doing nothing. Suppose to be happiest place on earth. Everywhere else in Disney and CA the employees are wonderful. It's like they always put all the bad eggs in this one basket at bayside brewery. Very disappointed. If I ever end up there again, and get the same awful service and rudeness. I will def take the time outta my day at Disneyland to file a complaint and make sure it changes. We don't pay a bunch of money to get major attitude from the employees there when it is not deserved. It's wrong, and needs to be addressed. read more

Cheapest beer in Disneyland. 6.50 for a bud light which isn't bad! They also have those jalepeno pretzels which are great. Line can get a little long but it moves fast. Come here for an adult beverage to get away from all the children! read more

I literally just tried to buy a beer here and was denied the beer because my drivers license has a hole punched in it due to my last name change.(i was just at the DMV this morning) I was given an interim drivers license paper from the DMV until I get my new license in the mail. Noemi asked me for an ID without a hole punched in it, I told her why it had a hole and showed her the paper the DMV gave me to use in the mean time. She said she couldn't accept it and I told her my DOB didn't change. She refused to sell me the beer but still ACCEPTED my debit card to purchase a beer for my Husband...How does this make sense??? read more
