Decided on some pretzel bites on the lower floor location and a strawberry lemonade with jalapeño dipping sauce. Set me back $20.65 cents but my son and I were hungry and it did not disappoint. The strawberry lemonade was quite fresh and refreshing. The pretzel bites I watched as she put salt and butter on them. No complaints!

Stone Brewing in Escondido is truly a beautiful location. After talking with one of the waiters and…read morea cashier in the gift shop, it sounds like this incredible property may be closing within the next six months. If that's true, it will be a real loss for the community. I absolutely love this venue. The layout of the restaurant, the outdoor gardens, the stonework, landscaping, and overall atmosphere make it one of the most unique brewery destinations in Southern California. Every detail of the property feels thoughtfully designed and creates an experience that goes beyond just food and drinks. We recently attended a baby shower in one of the outdoor event spaces, and it was perfect. The service was outstanding, the food was excellent, the drinks were great, and the staff was incredibly accommodating to our group's needs. They helped make the event memorable for both the parents-to-be and all of the guests. Places like this are hard to replace. Stone Brewing Escondido has always been more than just a brewery it's a destination. It would be incredibly sad to see such a beautiful and iconic location close its doors.

They still have their large pretzel with mustard and cheese sauce that we love. And their sandwiches are delicious. As for service, you order from a QR code at the table, and food and drinks are brought to you. Not a lot of interaction with staff, but that's okay. I highly recommend a visit.

Our waitress, Samantha, was very accommodating and attentive. She made sure everything was just right and truly made us feel at home. It was our first time there, and we're really impressed by service , food and drinks. Especially since it was a busy Friday night. Even though we had a few thing that didn't come out quite right , it was handled very well and came out great overall. The ambiance had a laid-back brewery vibe -- very chill and comfortable.

On two occasions I came here and had two different kinds of experiences. Both were Dam good times…read more. The first time was after roller skating nearby and I was one HUNGRY beaver! So my friend Nanci and I turned to Yelp for help. She had been to this location before and I frequent the Vista tavern and grill (mainly when Jimmy Paton is playing) with my family. Knowing that this one wasn't a restaurant we looked up on their calendar and excitedly saw that the Oishi sushi fusion pop up would be here. I've had them elsewhere several times and am a fan of them! AND we also saw that they have live music on Friday nights too! Oh yeah! This day the music was by Kimmi Bitter duo with Willis Farnsworth. I love the 60/70's vibe that they've got going on! Definitely a fun FriYay night out with our favorite of things ie Grub, drink AND what felt like a VIP live music show! I loved the open floor plan especially because after that fun workout prior I was able to cool down with the fresh air. Cuz I was one sweaty Betty, Ha! We noticed that they have BINGO on Thursdays and so the pre-planning of my 50th birthday spinning wheels in my head began! How perfect that my actual birthday fell on the same day as a bingo night. Spinning Meats Mediterranean pop up would be there. Rain or Shine. You see it's usually very hard to plan an actual birthday event for my birthday because it's so close to the hustle bustle of the Holidays. It also likes to be a rainy day. We lucked out here! I called and spoke to Ashley (forgive if I got the name wrong but that's what this old brain remembers). about making reservations and she informed me that it really is a free-for-all/first come basis as far as the table seating goes. But she did reserve one high communal table for me, RSVP for a half an hour prior to the first BINGO game. That worked out perfectly as my event was more casual and my friends would be trickling in and out during the evening. Several of my guests that attended my event are fellow YELPers too and we are always recommending our favorite places with one another. The entire venue felt like it was my own as we befriended strangers and shared other tables, luv and laughs all around & even shared my cake with them too. I was having surgery just days after this event so I only had one seltzer drink and it was good. I love that it didn't have fake dye coloring in it. My friends loved the place, their brews, and I loved their presence! Thank you BBB~O'side crew. You were amazing! Tho a bit bummed that no one out of my group won a bingo game but one guy won twice!?! How!?! Scratches head. We had a great time and truly am looking forward to my/our next experience here!

There is a large outdoor patio along with inside booths and a large bar, tons of space for everyone. Karl Strauss has been a San Diego staple for decades and I definitely recommend stopping at any of the locations for good local beer and food. I love their Mac and cheese! The noodles and the sauce are perfect texture and I really liked the mushrooms. They also do an awesome job curating their menu and beer to complement each other. I really appreciate the effort that goes into that. Everyone was super nice and helpful. Our server was attentive and everything was great. 10/10 recommend!

What does it say about me that I picked this place for dinner because it has "beaver" in the name?…read moreI don't want to know! But my excuse is that I did it for the children. Inexplicably, my kids love beavers, and so when we were staying in Carlsbad for the night and looking for a place to eat, how could we not visit a place called Belching Beaver? We couldn't not! And so we did. It turns out, Belching Beaver is a very family-friendly brewery, with lots of arcade games, lawn games, and an extremely laid-back atmosphere. I wasn't going to get a beer, but then I saw that the brewery did a collaboration with the Deftones to create an IPA called Phantom Bride. I had to get a pint. Chino Moreno made me do it! It was citrusy and refreshing, and just the thing to enjoy while sitting on the outdoor picnic tables. Belching Beaver offers your average pub food. My kids got chicken tenders and fries, and mac and cheese with fries. I got a poke bowl, which sounds like a risky choice at a brewery, but it was actually really good and fresh! Not too saucy, either. We also got the carne asada 980 Nachos, which are huge and come on a baking sheet. Plenty enough to share! This place is tucked away in what looks like an office plaza. I'm learning that a lot of breweries in this area are posted up in situations like this. You look like you're driving into a nondescript place to get your contract notarized, but instead, you happen upon a cool restaurant and brewery such as this.

Overall it's a fun spot to check out, but I probably wouldn't go again.
