Love the new space, it's modern, vibrant, and cozy. The place was packed on a Sunday night, which is always a good sign. We came in with a large group of 18 and the team handled it smoothly. Food came out quickly, which was impressive for such a big party. The appetizer meatballs were delicious, and I had the veggie burger with chimichurri aioli which was also really good, it tasted like a handmade veggie patty, not one of those overly processed Impossible-style burgers One small note from our table: the veggies (asparagus + broccoli) were almost too salty to eat. Just a little tweak there and they'd be perfect. Overall a great experience and we're excited to have this spot in town! read more

Food was alright, but there was so much more wrong with this place I wouldn't go back. Service was terrible, the waitress asked if we wanted drinks (we did-we asked for a beer menu) she came back 5 mins later without a menu and asked if we wanted drinks again....then we reiterated we wanted a beer menu and she brought it, but literally never returned for our drink order. The food came out (not from our waitress) it, tasted decent, but $16 for a kids meal is outrageous (especially when it doesn't come with a drink ) We never saw our waitress again after she dropped off the beer menu until she asked if we wanted the check, then she TOLD me the price and held the iPhone up for me to pay--like, no paper check at all to review and you aren't even gonna let me hold the iPhone to pay with privacy? Because the tip will reflect the service... They also stated on the menu that they charged $ .50 for any ' sauce' requests...which is so weird considering that none of the meals were cheap. Not sure if they followed through with this because I couldn't actually view my check. Super disappointed in the experience overall, there seems to be a lot of places in the area to eat, I'd reconsider coming to this one. read more

Burger and onions rings 4/5 - burger was very good. Patty was juicy and had good flavor. Onion rings were my favorite. They are crispy without being overly battered. We got seated right away but it took a long time for the food to come out. Almost all tables were filled though. Great service read more

Fifty Fifty Brewing - Fish Tacos - Grilled - Breweries Near Me - Truckee, California

The only good thing was the beer and friendly waitress when she occasionally stopped by the table. Fish and chips were the worst ever- like they were old and it was as though they sat under heat lamp forever. Waitress found out how bad they were when she finally returned so I could tell her, after every one else had already eaten their food. If we return it will be for beer only, no one at the table really remarked favorably for their food. Use to be a go to place for food and beverage. read more

Stopped by here after a bike ride. We stood at the host station waiting for several minutes for them to acknowledge us. They sat us on the couches, and gave us menus. Then no one ever came to help us again of their own accord. We flagged someone down who brought us waters. Then we never had someone come take our orders. Eventually we left. From being seated until we left, it was about 45 minutes of being ignored. I'm pretty bummed because the menu looked tasty and the drinks looked refreshing. Oh well. read more

Yum yum! Tasty eats, nice selection of drinks, bustling ambiance. Service was great for such a busy spot, food came out hot, fresh, made to order. read more

We walked in brand new building with modern warm features. Inside spacious and inviting. Sports on the TVs. Warm fireplace with cozy couches. Best burger! Wow! Juicy and not overcooked. Sweet potato fries super yum. Chicken sandwich was juicy and good portion! Service was slow but the server was busy with most of the tables. I'd recommend this place for sure. read more

The new 50/50 location is fantastic. It is large, very large for Truckee, and two-levels. It has very large TVs with sports tuned in. We started with a flight of beer. All four of the local crafted beers were good. We had Nachos. It was a large plate with plenty of meat and the chips appeared to be homemade. The chicken wings were good. The prices are reasonable for Truckee. The service was fast and the food arrived quickly. The entree meals were pretty good. The onion rings were awesome. Two complaints: 1- kids running around everywhere, and 2- the servers did not know anything or offer any information about the beers that they served, even when asked. My son ordered one draft, and the server replied, we are out of that one, but this other one tastes the same." Not a good answer for a brewpub. Yes we will for sure come back. This new location just opened a month ago and I am sure they will smooth out the rough spots. Overall it was a nice experience. read more

Both food and service were absolutely top-notch! We're a combo of locals/somewhat locals and 50/50s food was on point with high expectations. We had: -The appetizer pretzel: was good! (I make homemade pretzels so I have "opinions." LOL) And -The cauliflower bites, with a little heat. The cauliflower bites were perfectly spicy with the best breading I've ever had! (And, trust me, I'm quietly picky about breading things... let alone things that naturally sog out. We agreed they were the star of the meal. Give it a go; you won't be disappointed! read more

Fifty Fifty Brewing - Cauliflower bites on the appetizer menu; best breading ever! - Breweries Near Me - Truckee, California

To start off, I would have given 5 stars but there literally was no signage anywhere, hard to find them... But once we did.. AMAZING... The food, the beer (specifically the Haze), the service and the atmosphere.. All was top notch. I'd recommend some signage out front or near street, we almost just drove away. Can't wait to go back and try more if their food and beers! read more

We used to enjoy this place! They recently moved and we just spent over 2 hours there. We waited over 15 minutes for someone to appear. Then over 20 for our beers once ordered the food took an hour. One plate of nachos. The servers could be crushing it. But there is zero sense of urgency or customer appreciation. Was mind blowing. A very disappointed experience for sure. read more

This place has just gone downhill. I'm currently eating two slices of tomato, two slices of watermelon the exact same size as the tomatoes, 2 basil leaves and 2 slices of mozzarella for $17 dollars. Just WTF 50/50?! $25 that's a 1/4 of $100 bucks for a basic burger? What kind of cows are you killing? The world's rarest cows? read more

Just went to Fifty Fifty. Fun family atmosphere for games if that's what you're looking for...and don't care about food quality. There was a big game on so service was slow. Nice building. The food looked good from the outside but it just wasn't. I could not get myself to eat the fried chicken sandwich. I just couldn't! Not sure what part of the chicken they fried for that. Something brown with a lot of connecting parts. And the coleslaw heavy in mayo had no flavor. Ughhh...I hate to waste money on bad food. I have to say the shrimp tacos ordered at my table didn't look too great either. The Shrimp almost looked under cooked and covered with the flavorless slaw. It wasn't devoured. They could certainly do better. I won't spend money on this food again. Waste of almost $100 for 3 and we didn't have alcohol. read more

~20 of us (5 families w kids 7-10 years) came here for apres ski. The self serve tap room upstairs is amazing! The beers were really good, food is solid as well. Shrimp tacos were particularly good. Very family friendly. The hostesses were a bit overwhelmed by our party (even though only 2 families came 1st) and said they couldn't seat us all together, the place was only half full. But I understand, the waitresses wanted to break up the distribution. We separated into 3 tables but overall a very good time and we'll definitely be back for the food and beer. read more

Love the new space! Beer was good (the eclipse is always elite and their Belgians were good too), food was good (the French fries were really good! So was the salmon), and our server Micah was really friendly and attentive. Overall will definitely visit again read more

We waited an hour and ten minutes just to be seated. It was undeniably a chaotic night, as the establishment was completely packed for the England vs. Mexico World Cup match. While it was clear that demand was through the roof--with crowds of people being told the wait was 2 hours or more at the door--the venue's internal operations simply collapsed under the pressure. The core products were great. The food we managed to get was very good as were the cocktails. However, management completely failed on inventory control; they were entirely out of almost every appetizer on the menu. The worst part was our experience with Maci, one of the hostesses. After being quite rude at the front desk she later walked past us, turned and looked right at us, then chose to stand directly in front of the TV screen, completely blocking our view of the match (while the other hostess ducked down so as not to block our view). Maci's actions showed a total lack of training and customer awareness. The floor staff were the only reason we stayed. The restaurant was completely slammed, and management clearly left the servers running around without any direction, leadership, or support. Despite the chaotic atmosphere and evident lack of internal organization, the individual servers did their absolute best to be helpful, kind, and accommodating under very busy conditions. The establishment has immense potential, but leadership needs to work out a massive amount of operational kinks. We won't be back until management trains their front-desk staff and properly supports their hardworking floor crew. read more

Quality is consistent and it's a solid choice if you're in the mood for American food. The food is a bit over priced for what it is, but on par with what you'd expect just because it's Truckee. Service is kind of hit or miss - everyone is friendly but today we waited about 15 minutes before someone even came to take our drink order. It often runs on the slower side, but thr staff are always pleasant to deal with. The acoustics are terrible, though, so if you have a sound sensitivity the indoor dining is going to be rough. However, I like the outdoor dining when the weather is nice. read more

We managed to find a table and food inless than an hour on a big World Cup soccer day. The brewed-in-house beers were varied, but both the hazy and clear IPAs were a little bland. Hamburger and Reuben sandwich were both delicious. Good location at the edge of downtown Truckee. read more

Mid day Saturday seated outside. 5 people and only received 3 of the orders. 5 minutes later received an apology and told they would comp the last 2. Also did not bring fries with one of the meals and was told it did not include fries - though it clearly stated this on the menu. When this was pointed out they said yes, but that was a mistake in printing... finally, after finishing all our meals, was asked if we wanted our check. We said yes, but they apparently forgot - it took 10 minutes... great weather and beautiful place but the service did not match... 2 stars since they comped three of the meals. read more

I haven't reviewed this place?!? I've been coming here for over a decade. Their pizza is solid. Service is great. Their arugula salad is other worldly. Best thing I ever ate status. So ridiculously good. They have a bunch of fun beers to choose from. Family friendly. They have sports playing on the televisions. Can't wait to see the new spot! read more

Awesome place to "rehydrate" after a hike! Great beer, friendly service, cool atmosphere. Order the chicken nachos, you will not be disappointed! Also, if you're feeling slightly adventurous, the Peanut Butter Porter was quite good. I am usually not a big fan of those but this one was different. I could definitely picture that going down nice and smooth on a crisp fall or cold winter day! Thank you Fifty Fifty for the great pit stop! read more

Went again . At least they are consistent. Horrible service , horrible food . Don't wasted your time or Monday .

Fun spot with plenty of seating inside & on the patio. Service is attentive & very friendly. They offer an abundant menu with lots of tasty options. In addition to cocktails, they have a bunch of beer options that you'd expect at a brewery. 50/50 is a must visit. Provecho! Pro-Tip: Don't pass on the nachos appetizer. You can thank me later. read more

Great new location! Very spacious, and nice staff experience. Really enjoyed the Wolverine burger with the garlic fries! Mac n cheese is bit on blander side needs more cheese in my opinion but very creamy. Cesar salad was great and very fresh, crunchy and flavorful. The tacos were great and crunchy! Food came out fast and server was good at attending us, great lunch spot experience. Bit overpriced for food, and outside seating is needed! read more

We try to visit lots of breweries when we travel so when we drove by this one, we made a quick turnaround! In addition to the beer, which was good, we also had buffalo cauliflower and the fried chicken sando with onion rings. I'm a big onion ring fan and these just didn't do it for me. Most of the breading just fell off. :/ Not sure if it was just an off day but our waitress neglected to get our items correct on two occasions during our short visit. I heard her apologizing to two other tables as well. We were able to eat outside, which we relish. Not an awesome experience but really no complaints. I'd visit again. read more

The new location and space is trendy and bigger. A nice improvement in that regard. But it's noisy. I was encouraged by the more diverse menu. But sadly the food remains 'meh'. The fish tacos were very fishy, and ruined by the mayo heavy coleslaw with no flavor. The burger was just a burger. There are better burgers in town. The salmon was also just prepared from frozen with bare bones seasoning. Almost like it's on the menu along with a salad for the ladies, but no effort put into it. Amongst the local breweries, this is the bottom of my list as well in terms of own-label beers. read more

Vibes: Chill, staff were friendly, spacious. It was warm in here. Some tables have couches instead of chairs which was pretty cool~ Flank Steak: The steak was delicious and it was a good portion. It came with flavorful mash potatoes and with asparagus that were tasty! Shrimp Scampi: Good portion, it had a zesty hint that made it taste delicious. The bread was garlicky which I liked. Overall, I would love to come back! read more

New location is awesome. Large, modern, and vibrant on the east end of church street near downtown and rail yard. Easy free parking. Beautiful courtyard with fire pits and huge fireplace. New Dopo pizza and pasta ( from owners of Coffee Bar) is right next door making it a great new location for a variety of options. The indoor space is easily twice as big as the original location. Large bar area. Plenty of seating. Upstairs area open for seating when we were there but could be used for a private party location. Loved watching the Olympics on all the big TVs. Beer and food quality remain excellent. The fish in the fish and chips is my favorite. The burgers are awesome. The fries are good but best when they are first served straight from the frier. I'm a huge fan of the beer samplers. Check em out! read more

It was dumping snow for several days and no one was delivering. We felt lucky to find a great spot, that was warm, clean, and good atmosphere for a family. The building looked industrial modern style, with a big fireplace, bar, and plenty of seating. There is an a cozy area upstairs (Great for the little ones)l to relax while you're waiting for food. Staff was shorthanded but we still had great service. Waiters were very nice and helpful. Food and beverages were delicious! Lots of variety and options. Has a kid meal too! Would go here many times over if we were local! read more

Good beer, poor service. I had the stout and a new IPA and both were good. Sat at the bar and I may as well have been invisible. 2 beers and a burger in and hour and a half. Empty glass sat on the bar for 15 mins at one point. At the end, I was literally waving both hands at the bar for about 3 mins before I could tell anybody to cash me out. read more

Let's start with the positive part, the new location is spacious, modern, and clean! Our family stopped in for lunch on Saturday and had a disappointing experience. Service was very slow, and our server seemed disengaged (possibly because our group of six automatically included a 20% gratuity). We asked for a kids' menu and were told they didn't have one and to just pick something on the regular menu, only to see the table next to ours with kids' menus and kid-friendly options like chicken strips & fries. When we asked about it, the explanation from the waitress didn't make much sense, so we spoke with a manager. There were several other small but frustrating moments: the server grimaced when my mom asked for extra lemon for her iced tea, and she didn't offer simple solutions (like putting coleslaw on the side) until we suggested it ourselves. read more

We aren't allowed to eat outside. Can only have apps upstairs, no meals. Random. Our chicken wings were cold on the inside, hottish on the outside. Still paid top dollar. Nobody seemed to know what they were doing. This place needs some time to get their shit together. read more

I went here for a lunch after my son's graduation. I had heard good things and wanted to try it out. It's a great location away from downtown so I feel less crowded. We got the cheese curds for appetizer and man they were delish. They were served with a chimichurri sauce that was divine!! We ordered various burgers and sandwiches and pizza for entrees. The chicken sando was tasty, Philly cheesesteak needed more sauce. Cheese pizza was ok but came out later than everything else. Decent spot for lunch....would love to see that chimichurri sauce on other sandwiches and entrees. Yum! read more

Went there last saturday. 1) Sit outside is pretty nice, I arrived around 6pm, not that crowded, I was very worry that it is summer on saturday night. Not that crowded. 2) Ordered watermelon salad, fish taco, ice-cream sunday. My husband ordered beef taco. Everything is good, beer is tasty. And waiter is nice and responsive. When I almost finish, the restaurant look slightly empty. I am very surprise, since the beach and other area that I drove by is super super crowded that day. read more
