This is a pretty small venue however nevertheless the beer menu has plenty to offer. Every Friday there is live band- so why not make a reservation and organize next after work! Food truck - (pizza) was parked outside and the pizza was brought inside so no need to linger outside. I saw several dogs tagging along. This brewery is definitely more diverse. Come and check them out.

We really enjoyed our first trip to Five Suits and will definitely go back. The beer was delicious and the live music was awesome! Stay tuned...I'll update the rating after we visit a couple more times.

Are you looking for a local family owned and operated brewery? Not only do they serve fantastic beer, but they are also avid supporters of the local community! Five Suits Brewing hosts many different musical talents and food trucks offering their tasty creations. The ambiance is one that puts you back into a Vegas lounge - very comfortable and all the staff (the family who owns the brewery) are all approachable and professional. Stop by and have one of me! Pass along my CHEERS to Nick and Kandy - they truly are a Vista treasure! Hope you find out what makes this brewery so special, like myself and so many others who specifically choose to patronize this business.

Cool place

Last week i visit San Marcos and my brother knew the brewing and invite me to have a Peruvian Langer Beer so good and refreshed .. Customer service is excellent. The lady on the front was so nice and explain everything i ask... The place is so nice for a happy hour, gatherings and they even have live shows some days.. A very cool spot. Recommend it

My new favorite spot! This place was AWESOME and totally different than any other brewery I've been too. Walking in I was blown away with the decor and design of this place. Very Vegas show girl type of vibe. Curtains on walls, poker tables, and strobe lights. This place has it all! The beer was great, I definitely enjoyed it. I didn't realize they had a kitchen in the back, they also have food! I've never had Peruvian food before and I was blown away. It was so delicious, the noodles had amazing flavor. It didn't taste like anything I've had before and it was outstanding. I'd come back just for the food, but it's a plus the beer is great too. Dog friendly, they had a live band performing outside, awesome decor, delicious food, I could go on. Definitely stop by and check this place out!

I like the mojito seltzer, Wetsuit SD ale, Cover Your Snout stout & the Razz Pack Raspberry wheat beer. Not a fan of IPAs..

Covid has me drinking more in 2020 than my whole adult life.... breweries are not even my jam. However, I came here to support a longtime friend's former coworkers, who are in the process of opening their business. Not only did I meet the owners, but I got a tour of the facility as well. They had live music and Peruvian food on Industry Night (again, not my thing- but if you bring your badge from bar/restaurant/casino/hotel/entertainment, you get 20% off all drinks Mondays from 3-8pm). I got to try about a half a dozen brews, and my favorites were the seltzer, stout, raspberry wheat beer, and the Wetsuit (which happens to have the highest ABV at 8%). We got a taster flight of 4 oz pours at three bucks a pop. I don't know tasting notes or standard beer prices to be able to expand on my experience further. This actually being my first time drinking at any brewery. And, I finished 2 tasters... making that more beer than I've ever had. While I don't see myself coming back on my own, if I do return, it will be nice to see the progress they make with the interior decorating and all the visions they enthusiastically shared with me. I honestly came more for the social aspect with this particular friend than the alcohol. No pros and cons section. But, if you are into the brewery scene, do make an effort to check this fledgling place out. You might find something you like! It's even kid and dog-friendly, albeit in an unassuming industrial business park. Peace out.

Looking for a brewery with a little touch of Vegas in Vista? You'll find it at Five Suits Brewing Co. The owners used to live in Vegas: husband was a casino manager and the wife a showgirl. Tip: the husband is an award winning home brewer and it shows in the brews. Been meaning to try Five Suits since it opened but the timing never worked out. Tonight was the night and too funny because we just got back from Vegas - literally got home about an hour ago and headed to the brewery. Decor is very Vegas - poker table as a counter/register, big overstuffed Liberace styles white chair, a Tropicana showgirl ad from a taxi on wall, and poker chips for food tokens. Staff is exceptionally friendly and service oriented. As a stout lover of course I ordered the Coconut Stout. Pretty decent Coconut Stout, somewhat smooth but more porterish than stout. Nice balance of coconut value without being overwhelming or suntan lotionish as other breweries Coconut stouts. All in all, I'd order it again. Hubby got the west coast IPA, Follow Suit, and the unfiltered IPA, Opening Night Haze. Friday night so I did the $8 hotdog and pint special and hubby got the ceviche. Despite the burnt outside the beef hotdog was tasty. The ceviche was excellent.

Being from Seattle and now living in Austin, I consider myself a hipster. As a hipster, it is my responsibility to seek out the best craft beer wherever I am. As I was visiting family in San Marcos, I decided to check out Five Suits. The head brewer is low key famous in the beer community. He's won some of the major Homebrew awards, which is sick! After tasting his beer, I can see why he's won so many awards. My personal favorites are the Pit Bos Hef, the Planet Nectaron, and the Mojito Seltzer. This beer is seriously some of the best beer I've ever had. On top of that, the ambiance and service is top notch. If you are in the area, this place is a must. If you don't go here, you don't like good beer.

Briley D.

the treats here are HUGE and the service is bar to mouth good!!!!!! fairly sure that is why the humans came here although they say it is the award winning beers and the delicious Peruvian food... speaking of which, the fried fish, shrimp, and calamari was amazing and I even got the best part which were the tails because I was such a good girl!! they had Mario kart races tonight which are fun to watch! I have been here for live music, comedy night, and cornhole so you can say I am a regular!!

Five suits has some of the most delicious beer ever! Everyone who works there is really passionate about good beer. They provided many samples and made sure that we were happy with the beers that we were getting. I will definitely return after covid so I can actually have the gambling experience. Five suits is a very interesting mix of a casino and a brewery, however they did a great job incorporating both! And in order to stay in business during this time, they partnered with a local Peruvian restaurant who made delicious food! The Tallarines were delicious!!

Good food, good beer.

My family and I have been coming here since they opened and I feel shame for not making a review until now. The people working there are always friendly. The people that go here are also always friendly. The bands that play here are amazing. Best of all, the beer is GREAT. We love it here. I have a separate review for Al Toque that I made a while ago. The pair with Al Toque and Five Suits is phenomenal. The food they make is just It's literally always got something going on. Trivia, bands, bingo, whatever. It's a fun time every time we go!!!

So much fun! Love the casino theme and the Peruvian food was so bomb Galaxy of Nectaron is amazing! Best Hazy IPA in SD hands down

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.

Super quick review:…read more Atmosphere was laid back, food was tasty, and the service was good! Outdoor seating for the majority of the seating. Lots of fire pits and picnic tables. Comfortable and casual. Many sign posted about disruptive kids and pets. It was early on a Monday evening, so I don't know if they enforce or not. The fish and chips were cooked very well. The flavor was good on the fish. The fries were crispy. My only disappointment is they served the malt vinegar on small portion cups instead of the shaker bottle. Hard to get an even spread. The pazole and the Cole slaw were both very good. Our server was attentive and friendly. They have water stations - coolers with cups stacked nearby. To me, the water tasted old ( I know -makes no sense). It had a very earthy note to it like the coolers weren't adequately cleaned. Would definitely go back!!

The venue is large, a little bit away from the freeway, but had plenty of parking and space for patrons to enjoy a meal and beer. The space the event was hosted in always decently sized for the number of vendors they had. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the beer options. There was a decently expansive menu to choose from as well. I ordered a pretzel and beer, the ultimate brewery combination in my opinion. The beer was crisp and refreshing and the pretzel was perfect. The beer cheese was divine and paired well. My friend ordered the nachos which were massive. The only idea we had was the beer cheese should be the go to cheese for everything - it was so good it definitely elevated the nachos for us.

This is definitely a little gem of Vista. Upon entering we were quickly greeted with smiles from the bartenders and welcomed in. The patrons sitting at the bar also smiled at us as we later learned they were the regulars of the bar and one used to be a bartender there. This place gave off such a casual cool dive bar vibe but was actually really nice inside. We ordered the fried zucchini, Nelson burger, and the elliotness burger. These burgers were great! And you can see that in the pictures. Meat was delicious and flavors were tasssssty! I must also say their Irish red and seltzers were super good too. If you're in the area and are in need of a good beer, good food, and chill vibe atmosphere... check this spot out!

Pros: This spot is a good place to hang out if you're looking for a casual bar with activities like billiards and darts. The vibe is fun without being overly packed, which made it easy to enjoy the space. They have darts (which are free, you just leave your ID), a pool table, and a music queue system where you can pick songs to play, which adds an interactive element to the night. I didn't try the food but the drinks were solid and did not disappoint. The overall energy of the place was welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. It's one of those spots where you can relax, hang out, and have a good time. Cons: Parking here is probably the biggest downside. The lot is really small and gets packed quickly, so I wouldn't recommend relying on it. We parked nearby after eating at Copper Kings Burgers and just walked over, which ended up being way easier. Verdict: If you're looking for a fun, chill bar in San Marcos with games, music, and good drinks, this is a great spot to check out. Just plan ahead for parking, but overall it's definitely worth it and I would come back again!

Came here for my fiancé's birthday…read more There were a lot of cars in the parking lot, so I thought the place would be packed. But I can't tell if most people were just in the bar area - we were able to get a booth! The place was nice and loud since every one was having a good time. Several parties of 3+ and I saw 1 party of 6. They were doing an explorer menu from Yucatan. Interesting thing to do during Black History Month - I won't lie. I was surprised to see it. But we ordered from that menu. We ordered the fried plantain that came with a sauce and cilantro, sausage and pepper soup, and the BBQ pork. I enjoyed everything except for the plantain. They were basically a huge disc that was slightly crunchy. I was not expecting that since if I want a crunchy plantain, I will eat actual plantain chips. The soup was fantastic! It was a bit spicy but not overwhelming and full of flavor. Wish I ordered a bowl instead of a cup. And last but not least, the BBQ pork was very good. Served on lettuce as well, so if you are doing keto you can omit eating the tortillas that came with the dish. It also had pickled red onions and a salsa. The salsa was mild and with everything in the taco, flavors were balanced. We also ordered 6 Cajun wings. But today, they didn't seem as flavorful, a pity really. A grilled cheese was ordered but with hamburger meat inside. That seemed good and it came with fries. Washed all of this down with a sour that was called Boozy Berry & my fiancé had a West Coast beer. Food was enjoyable, atmosphere was fun. We will be back again.
