The team here is amazing and was so accommodating for our wedding welcome party. The beer and other drinks are great with such a nice outside space set with firepits. Bri was amazing coordinating all our guests into the space! read more

Got called out to gather at Headlands Brewery in Lafayette. First off parking is a nightmare. So I'm a little unnerved after finding one and walking a block to the place . Upon entering you have seats inside but my group choose to be on the patio which is a nice open space surrounded by fire pits and umbrellas . Chairs aplenty so no worries there. Checking food menu appears basic bar food . I did order smash burger off the grill 8/10 and the pretzel 6/10 basic. Really there for the IPA's to try a few new ones . I ended up sticking with a Hazy IPA which was cold and excellent to taste 10/10 Service was a little slow but place was packed so we had to travel back inside to order more drinks and food. They gave you a # tho so u could they would bring it out to you which was great . Music playing , good vibes as we were able to chat and catch up . Heard they do have live bands on occasion. Check the weather it got cold pretty fast once sun went down . Will be back for the Smash burgers and to try a hot link out . And of course for the beer. read more

IYKYK...hidden gem, Lucious mountain vibes and epic brews! Need I say more? Bad ass music that's local even if it's just a solo or Duo artist, and also fresh sausages made to order, vegan ones too, you can see em in the pics! Dig it! And drink a brew for Homer and Homies! And shout out to Jason for the best customer service ever! read more

Amazing outdoor space!! Multiple levels with turf, fire pits and heaters. Surrounded by shops and a BBQ place. Tvs inside and outside. Beer is clean with unique options. This spot compliments the area perfectly. More of a cool beer garden than brewery but definitely would come back! read more

I still say Northern California can compete with anywhere in the US for great breweries. We finally got the chance to come here - we're not in Lafayette that much but we did like the place a lot. Beer was good and being able to bring your dogs is wonderful. Would give five stars if it wasn't for the stampede of kids running freely all over. Screaming and doing as they please without any supervision - that's what would keep us away. But outside that we liked the place a lot. I hope they do something about the playground atmosphere of the place and realize it's for adults - this is a nice place. read more

In my opinion, this is the best place I can recommend to everyone, who likes a good vibe, good beer, and good Berger read more

Great brewery! Large spot. Indoor, outdoor seating! Great wood structures for seating. Small stage for band. Barber and Salon on site. Sweet spot! The beer - great selection! read more

I came here with my family and we had a very interesting time. The food was very, very good, but it seems that both parents and pet owners have somewhat of an issue of keeping their child/pet under control. This is obviously outside of the scope of the restaurant, but do better Lafayetters. This is a restaurant, not a playground. read more

The Beer is excellent and a wide selection. The atmosphere on the weekends is chaotic as it crowded and way to many toddlers running around unsupervised. kids/toddler playground vibes, no doubt at this brewery I would recommend going during the week. Also, the menu should offer a basic salad. Was surprised there was no salad on the menu. read more

Good beer. Good space. Good employees. Ordered (chicken) sausage platter. Sausage tasted like it'd been resting on the edge of the grill for hours. Not fresh -- tough and chewy. Returned the food, which was easy enough. read more

Great atmosphere! Wonderful staff! Delicious food...I recommend the smash burger and the pretzel. I will be back again someday. Edit: The beer was great as well! I had the Always Somethin' IPA and the Hawk Hill (hefeweizen) read more

Love the atmosphere , the wiggly sitting areas around the outdoor gas fire that really invite you to stay and enjoy a few drink and the all you need food wise ie sausages, pretzels and any combo of those two. There is a huge variety of brews available all fresh and tasting very unique. Service is well organized and straight forward. Ordering inside goes faster than the outdoor window. There is ample parking but it is a very busy spot so it can be tricky to park. read more

Drinks are always good. Not a beer but Frose is my favorite. Good selection of beers and friendly staff. Nice outdoor seating. They have a limited food menu. Smash burger smell great - I have not had one but friends say they are good. read more

We came here on a beautiful Saturday. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and experienced great customer service. Price of food is very reasonable and loved the variety of outdoor seating. Will return! read more

Spontaneous stop by turned out to me a very cute discovery here in Lafayette. Very interesting place with the cute outside seating to oversee uptown main strip on the rainy night with a great beer selection and very knowledgeable staff offering what your heard desires. Hawk Hill Hefeweizen ($8.50) was a bit plain and got compensated with flavorful pilsner. Smash Burger ($9.50) as good as it can be, can be substituted with bbq meats and delicious sauce from next door. Atmosphere and vibe are amazing with comfy and heated outdoor seating and very cool view. Enjoyed and will be back for more. read more

The smash burger here is amazing!!!! I eat it once a week and can't stop lol! The beer is also fantastic as is the vibe and crowd here. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out read more

This place is a pretty cool place to hang out. We sell their beer at my work and generally I've been pretty happy whenever I drink their stuff. This is my first time going to their location. They have about six of their beers on tap And they also carry about six or seven other companies beers on tap, which I thought was kind of nice. Also their food's pretty good. I've only eaten there that one time and I had their double smashburger read more

Great place to hang out. Feels like you are in the backyard having fun with friends. Food was good. I really liked the pretzel. Beer was delicious. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. read more

Top notch and a hidden gem for lovers of Rugby. Great beer, Toucan Stout is my beer of choice. Smash burgers are awesome.

The staff gets a full five stars but the menu isn't that deep so one star short of five because of the lack of options and no full bar. The beer is cold and the dogs are served with care. read more

Love this atmosphere and outdoor space. Live music always makes it a great time, along with trivia night and Taco Thursdays! A great spot to enjoy a warm evening, or a cool one since they have space heaters and outdoor fire pits to enjoy and keep you warm. Great selection of beer and food. Their smash burgers are amazing! Fast service and friendly staff. read more

Food and service were very excellent. Love the atmosphere, especially the fireplace which is a chill place to hang out. Oh, love the self service water fountain. read more

Excellent food and drinks. Could always do with a little more beer cheese for the pretzel, but that's just me loving their beer cheese. The staff came around to ensure everyone was enjoying the food and clear tables. Cute fire pits and areas to hand out. Kid & dog friendly! read more

Welcome to Lafayette Headlands Brewing Company! I know this site has been many years in the making and it was so nice to see the vision finally come to fruition. We parked in the back behind the brewery, it can get a little tight and crowded back there so be mindful of that when visiting. The space is beautiful with mostly outdoor seating, some indoor, and a covered patio as well. They are also kid and dog friendly! The staff was welcoming and eager to help. I decided to order a flight (6 beers) to try several of their beers. Each taster was priced differently based on which style beer it was. I mostly got IPAs but they also carry lighter beers like pilsners, pale ales, and a sour pilsner. My favorite beer of the day was the Bear Creek Hazy IPA, light and easy drinking. They also sell fancy sausages and some snacky type items. They also carry non-alcoholic drinks, wine, and cider so there's a little something for everyone! We can't wait to come back! read more

Popped in for a Saturday lunch and easily found a seat. Ordered our food and drinks at the counter so we had the benefit of some recommendations! Beers were all delicious. Not overpowering and tasted great with the food. You would think the menu is limited but the ability to make your own gives you lots of options. Diablo Sausage Dog was delicious. Didn't expect the cream cheese, jam and jalapeños to blend so nice but it wasn't super spicy and the beef was tasty. Definitely will be back! read more

Finally, a brewery in Lafayette. Moving up in the world . We had a great experience here on a hot day, perfect for a nice cold beer. We didn't know what their hours were and strolled by 90 minutes before they opened. The general manager saw us and offered to pour us a couple beers and sit on the outdoor patio anyway. I've never been to a place that will serve you and let you sit down 90 minutes before opening. Above and beyond customer service! I tried their pale ale and their frose. Pale ale was good and frose, although something I wouldn't normally order at a brewery, was much needed on a day that was over 100 degrees. There are two areas to sit outside, a larger patio on the side with plenty of umbrellas and a smaller patio in the front. Plenty of shade at both. There are also a few tables inside. I look forward to trying some of their food next time I'm on that side of the Bay. Come support the newest local Lafayette business and enjoy a drink or two at Headlands Brewery. read more

Great new brewery in Lafayette! A must-try with a good selection of beers. We got the Hefeweizen and the sour guava, which were great. How it works: you order at the counter and find a table or you can sit down, order with the QR from the table and a server will bring you a drink. The QR option is great if you don't want to get up again and again for a drink, but there was little to no line at the counter. There was plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor. You can also bring in food if you don't want their sausages, but those were great and they offer a vegan sausage. I'll definitely return on a nice summer day! read more

I've spent a decent amount of time at the Headlands Lafayette taproom. They're always releasing new beers and I've yet to try one I didn't like. They make some of the best west coast and hazy IPAs. The tap room staff is awesome and the food is all delicious. Do yourself a favor and get the smash burger. The Berkeley location is equally as awesome and I'm counting down the days until Walnut Creek opens! read more

A wonderful venue to hang out with the kids, to watch sports, and/or enjoy some delicious brews from some of the most talented brewers around. Smash burgers are the bomb! They have vegetarian patty and sausage options which are far better than your standard fare. The pretzels are also quite good, and if you show up on a Thursday you will find amazing street tacos. If you turn up on Wednesday they have trivia which is super fun and offers gift cards for the top 3 winners! Management is excellent. They treat their staff well and it shows. There is always someone on hand for whatever you may need if you ask for it. Couldn't say enough nice things about this place! read more

Perfect spot to get drinks with friends and family. Plenty of outdoor seating with heating lamps and firepits. I love that they have so many vegan options on the menu (shout out to the Beyond Brat). Food is affordable and comes out quickly. Drinks are available in half pours and they've got a great selection of wines, ciders, and hard kombucha if you're not a beer drinker. read more

Super friendly staff. Great beer selection and smash burgers. Their hours are optimized for their business which makes business sense.

As an area native, this place is one of the best things to happen to here in a long time. The food is great, the service is always unpretentious and competent, and the ambiance is perfection. The drinks are good, too, but that's not even what draws us here even though it's a brewery. The owners have definitely figured out a sweet spot in hospitality in the east bay that has us area natives driving from all around to sit back in the sun and drink beer and eat nachos and pretzels. read more

Thoughtful staff. Attended a 70th birthday party at this location. Now they have 2! Beer was amazing,along with the smashburgers. Easy to have a event at this location. Dress is casual. Music was enjoyable. read more

It is amazing you need to try this I think the burger is really good and not too complicated read more

Very good beer and very good food. You have to like children and dogs because many of the neighbors bring the children and dogs as the patio has ample space. read more

Responsiveness from staff/management could use improving. I alerted staff to a problem but they weren't interested in solving it

$11 for a 16oz mundane Dbl IPA is disappointing. Fieldworks does better doubles for $8 to $9 or so. Humble Sea has a Triple for $11. Just say'n... Nice set-up though, now if they can only get their barbeque neighbor on the same page. read more
