Y'all, Bias Brewing is so rad that I can't even make a cheesy pun about being biased--it just simply has been the most rad stop during this trip to Kalispell. The staff is so chill and really friendly and engaging; you'll feel welcomed right away. The beer/cider/seltzer options are bountiful and you can taste whatever you'd like before making a full-sized selection. My partner and I had only popped in for a pint and a bite but I wish we had had time for a full lunch! The pretzel bites? Ya gotta get 'em. It's also super cute inside and the little porcupine logo is divine! I wish this place was in Modesto! I'd make it my haunt for sure! Check out Bias. You won't regret it! read more

Short review- stick to the beer, skip the food. Quick eats spot, you order at the bar. Beers and drinks came out first, food took a bit longer. They seemed to have cut down the menu quite a bit and what's left just missed the mark. The BBQ chicken pizza was not good and tasted very doughy. The build your bowl option was meh, nothing crazy. I'd come for drinks but skip out on eating read more

Solid beers and atmosphere. They have happy hour pricing also which is cool. The deck in back had music, dogs and good weather.

Tiny sandwich, tiny portion of potato salad. Good selection of beers. Great location and ambiance. Don't come here hungry. read more

Bias Brewing hit all the high spots for our group of five: crayons, colored pencils, and coloring sheets for the kid among us; soft pretzel bites with queso; nachos; taco salad; Hawaiian flatbread; butter noodles for kids; and great beer! The folks at Bias have made everything easy: - Order at the bar. They bring your food to you when it's ready. - There's plenty of seating: inside, outside (and both upstairs and downstairs). - The water station is conveniently located and to-go boxes are out so you can take one if you need it. The staff and patrons are friendly. A man behind me in line offered to sharpen the colored pencil my kid wanted to use with his pocket knife when the cashier told me they didn't have a pencil sharpener. I only wish Bias Brewing were closer to home! read more

Bias Brewing was another brewery that I was thrilled to try on a recent trip to Montana. I had a lengthy list of breweries I wanted to make sure I had a chance to get some beer from and Bias was one of them. Steve and I tried two different beers from this brewery and they were very solid and of good quality! The first beer I had was the Jewel Basin IPA. This was a very refreshing IPA with it's hoppy, piney and malty flavors. The beer is smooth and bright. The other beer was the Kolsch which was equally solid and enjoyable. The flavors in this beer is a light, biscuity flavor with a crisp finish. Very typical characteristics of a Kolsch and perfect as the summer season rolls in with it's higher temps. read more

We went for our anniversary and rented one of the snow globes. The ambiance was fun. However the food not so much. Not a big menu and it was basically just bar food, and not even good bar food. The service was great, when we needed something they were lickety split Johnny on the spot. We don't drink so we went there for the food and the ambiance of the snow globe. We won't go back read more

Bias Brewing in Kalispell, Montana is a fun and funky restaurant and a local hangout on Main Street in down town Kalispell. The menu ranges from bar food to flatbread and sandwiches but also includes bowls and a charcuterie boards. I ordered the Green Chili Chicken Rice Bowl which I thought was really great. It had just enough space from you. I even asked for the sweet Thai chili on the side, which balanced and finished off the bowl beautifully. And my food came out super fast. I was surprised. The guys who run the restaurant are awesome. They are super friendly and are happy to make recommendations and make your dining experience the best. read more

Bias Brewing is a locally owned and independent microbrewery, devoted to creating community through quality craft beer. Downtown Kalispell's family-friendly brewery where you can enjoy some craft beer, food and live music in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

Loved coming here for a midday lunch during a busy workday. I had the hazy IPA and the chicken bowl with the peanut sauce and my bf had the ham sandwich. We took it upstairs to the terrace and enjoyed a lovely lunch with the city view. The food was good, nothing crazy but way better than what we were getting in the mountains so i was grateful haha. Vibes were immaculate tho. Cheers. read more

Arrived at 7:25 with simple hopes and even simpler needs: two drinks and one flatbread. I was told it'd take about 35 minutes. Fair enough--busy night, small kitchen, I can wait. 35 minutes later: no flatbread. Asked for an update: "Another 30 minutes." For ONE flatbread? Now I don't know what kind of culinary masterpiece I was expecting, but after an hour and thirty-five minutes, I was no longer hungry--I was spiritually exhausted. We asked for a refund, and to add insult to indigestion, they still charged us for the two sodas. (A refreshing way to lose $6.) And just as we were walking out, in a twist no one asked for, the elusive flatbread emerged. Dramatic timing--but not worth the wait. Imagine this: canned pineapple, cubed ham, and melty sadness on what can only be described as a large saltine cracker. A five-minute effort stretched into a feature-length film. Spoiler alert: it flopped. Bias Brewing may pour good beers (so I've heard), but when it comes to food service, they're serving delays with a side of disappointment. read more

Great beers, I loved the Stout, Belgian, and Cucumber Sour! The staff was extraordinarily friendly as well, and even gave my friends and I free round of beers! Ambience is modern and casual, I love the large windows all around, giving the small space an airy and open feeling. I tried a $4 cup the tomato bisque as well...warm, sweet, fragrant, and delightful! Sunday nights is open mic night...any aspiring musician can come in and do 3 songs of their choosing. read more

Finally got in there today after a long day working in the yard! The pint of Dr. Evil that I had really hit the spot! The food was excellent as well! Had the nachos and the Margarita flatbread... Definitely will be returning! read more

Come for the beer and space and maybe stay for the food? I remember seeing Bias Brewing a block away last time I visited Kalispell and now they have occupied that I think was Kalispell Brewing so they're expanding! They have a lovely beer hall complete with table, picnic tables and bar space with a hefty selection of merchandise and an upstairs area and patio to boot! I had the Tangerine Cream Ale and it made me long for super and it was the perfect balance of tart and sweet! The beertender was friendly and helpful with my selection as well, bonus points! The food menu was intriguing but unfortunately was just sub par. The Banh Mi pizza was good but it missed something and the Chicken and Waffle sandwich tasted like the chicken was straight from the freezer. read more

I'm sad that Kalispell brewing is no more. But happy that Bias Brewing has moved into the building. Love the selection of beer. And food is well done. Like the daily specials. Servers are always friendly and the crowd is chill. They have some cool new additions to the back area of the building with private enclosed theme rooms. Reservations only. And the roof top seating is always nice on a clear day. And check out the swag in the main room. Some pretty nice quality shirts, hats, beanies, and hoodies. We always like to take a crowler to go too. read more

Service was great. I sat at bar on a non busy 3 pm Goof Friday. The bartender was awesome and kept asking if I needed anything. Which was really nice.

I stopped in here on a Saturday afternoon around 2. I've had their beer before, which is pretty good, today I came in to try the food. We ordered two sandwiches and a pizza. I got the pastrami sandwich hot and the herb wrap. After a wait, my sandwich came out barely room temp, but looked toasted. The sandwich had potential, unfortunately it sat too long. They weren't busy, so not sure why it sat around so long. My friend enjoyed the herb wrap. The pizza came out and was a big let down. The cheese had a weird waxy texture and the pie itself wasn't very hot when they brought it out. It was pretty lackluster for an "artisan" pizza. The server/bartender was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back here again for the beer, but not the food. read more

Food was terrible. Gas station/microwave quality. Such a bummer because I like their beers but will not be coming back.

This is a FANTASTIC spot. Food is tops, especially for a brewery which was totally unexpected. The beers were good and lots of options. Service was super friendly and attentive, very educated on the beer types and what was on tap most recently. I was there on a very wet afternoon so after getting a bit drenched in the back patio lot, moved inside. It's got tons of seating and probably packs full during summer's tourist season. There's a second story also. read more

Brewery # 242 is Bias Brewing, and let me tell you it was hopping when we arrived at almost 7;00pm on a Friday night. They had a gent playing the guitar and singing, which I appreciated but we decided to sit outside in the lovely spring weather. We ordered at the bar then headed to the patio area which had three greenhouse-type igloos for seating areas. I'm not sure if these are left overs from the covid hysteria or placed for outdoor winter, but they are cool. We didn't sit in one considering it was a solid 70 degrees and would probably have been over 100 in those igloo thingies. They would work really well in cooler weather. Regardless we enjoyed the patio. A flight of four for me included the Rice Rice Baby, a rice lager. This had a predictably light color and flavor. This was perfect for a 70 degree afternoon in Kalispell after a hike in the park. Jewel Basin IPA was next. This was an easy drinking IPA. The Dunkel was really good. True to style, flavorful, and well done overall. The Scotch Ale represented well. A bit malty of course and a very good beer. We enjoyed Bias Brewing and it looked like everyone there was. Good location and beers!

Be prepared to wait an hour and 15 min for a sandwich, pretzel bites with nacho cheese and buttered noodles nothing special. I get that you were busy. Place was cleared out for 20 mins and we were still waiting. read more

This place is a good spot for beer and food. It's an order at the bar / seat yourself place which is east enough. They have plenty of seating in the summer months with some rooftop terrace and back patio options. They have a great selection of beers on draft and a menu of pub style offerings including a few options for the kids. We ordered the Three Meat Italian and the kid's Mac N' Cheese. Both were pretty good. The pizza was thin crust with a healthy dose of cheese and meat. It's a nice spot that I'd visit again. Enjoy! read more

I came in because I really wanted a sandwich, the lady recommended the smoke. The sandwich was 16.00 and I thought it was going to be awesome for the price. I got it, and it seemed like there was only ham in it. There was supposed to be turkey and ham, there was hardly any meat and it was super small. For 16.00 I was expecting a great sandwich... I also ordered a couple macaroons, after I paid I tipped the lady 20%, she had asked me what I wanted to drink and I said just a water bc it was so hot and I was really thirsty. I thought they would bring me a water but no one did, I finally got up and asked for water which is fine but what am I tipping for... read more

AMAZING little brewery in downtown Kalispell with the best sandwiches we have ever had! I got the pickle (roast beef and pickled veggies) and my husband got the Candy (turkey and candied bacon). Staff was very friendly, beer was awesome. Main taproom was open and inviting. Would definitely recommend. read more

Great place to stop for a brew. When we visited they had 11 beers. All brewed to remove the almost all the gluten. They had seven ciders and four hard seltzers available. We really enjoyed the flight of hard seltzers. The kombucha hard seltzer was my fav while my hubby enjoyed the frozen daiquiri hard seltzer. We also tried the pineapple cider which was great and not too sweet at all. They also had food available including gluten free items. My hubby had the GF pizza. I had the Thai Green Curry Bowl.....excellent and also gluten for those who need it. They also offered sandwiches and BYOB bowls. Almost the entire menu could be modified to be GF (GF bread and pizza crust). Very relaxed atmosphere. You order at the counter and they serve you at your table. Come for the brews.....Stay for the brew and food. read more

Tasty beers and friendly folk! Pretty cool that they do themed nights too. Nice spot on Main Street

This brewery is located downtown Kalispell. The interior is nice. light, smells like new wood. The beer choices are solid. This is another great location for those who want more than just IPAs. The food was really good. The nachos and burritos are large, hearty, and very tasty. Like a lot of places right now, they're understaffed so breath deep, drink deeper, and just enjoy. We had a dog with us and they do have a dog-friendly patio, although it's just a concrete slab with three tables right next to their keg storage. There was a beer fest in town the day we were there so there was a lot of activity. read more

All in all, not bad. Seems to be a tad understaffed, which is a shame because the atmosphere alone would encourage this place to thrive. The chicken teriyaki lacked actual teriyaki.. the sauce that was used was okay, but definitely wasn't teriyaki, also didn't look very appetizing. Our guess was it was frozen and heated up. Pretzel bites and queso were alright, same with the pizza. We didn't try the beer; however, the menu was lengthy and the bar area was packed, suggesting locals seem to love it here & the beer must be good. read more

Stopped in here for a quick pre-dinner drink on a weekday. Unfortunately the roof deck, which looks quite nice, was closed for a private party. Downstairs was what seemed to be open like night. I'm all for supporting local aspiring talent, but there was no way or place to escape it. The beer selection was good and they have a great variety of options to choose from. read more

Really cool little place off of Main Street. They have their own Brewery and the beer is different but definitely in a good way. Food pre average for a place that is specializing more towards the brewery. But all around the atmosphere is great the staff especially one of the waitresses I believe her name was Maggie; they're incredible. There's a downstairs where you get served food and beer and then you can go up to the second level, same thing. and then from the second level you can go outside to the patio which overlooks Main Street which is really cool. All around worth trying. read more

Such an amazing and relaxing place. Got a recommendation from a few people to come here and check it out and I am so glad I did! A few coworkers and I met here for dinner and drinks. They had such a great selection of food and beer! I decided to get their seltzer on tap, which is made right there on site. It was super light, refreshing, and just oh so good!! I wish that I could've taken some home with me, but unfortunately that was impossible. The food was just great and the atmosphere relaxing. I definitely would come back here whenever I am in Kalispell! read more
