    Fish and Chips
    Vivian J.

    Humdinger Brewing is awesome! I got the Smash Burger with those thin, crispy fries--seriously, so good. My daughter had the Fish & Chips (yep, same amazing fries) and loved it, and my other daughter went for the cheeseburger. Everything was delicious and the portions were HUGE. We ate outside, and there's a ton of seating which made it super chill. Service was quick, prices were fair, and the menu has so many appetizers and tasty-looking dishes that I'm already planning what to try next. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to!

    We have been ordering take out and eating at the restaurant more than i like to admit. I usually go with the "dinger dip" and the fried cheese curds are to die for! This place is right in downtown AG, and has a fun atmosphere! The servers are top notch and friendly, and when I am off the wagon occasionally, I love the beer here. You wont be disappointed!

    Stopped here on a road trip because we were looking for salads and seems like a good spot for that. Both our salad were great! Interesting options and good dressings. However, with being pregnant I really wanted chicken strips. There was no chicken strips on the menu so asked if I could order a kids chicken strips and I was told no. I was willing to buy both a green salad and chicken strips. He came back to say they actually have chicken strips just not on the menu. But I still had to order the adult. Okay fine. I was bummed because I knew I didn't want 4 full size chicken strips and ended up throwing 2 away... We also got an order of fried pickles. Delish. Good sauce. I felt like the service teetered from stand offish to friendly. That was confusing. Nice and clean atmosphere. Lots of indoor & outdoor seating.

    I was in town visiting with family and we had been to this spot before and decided to come back. They have some of the best bar snacks I've ever had. It's hard not to order everything on the menu. Still haven't tried any beers but plenty of other patrons seem to enjoy their selection. I did try their house brewed root beer and the flavor was good but lacked carbonation. The food comes out quickly, hot, and cooked the perfection. I love their pinkie spears, such a strong but delicious dill flavor. Their corn dogs are also amazing! All the sauces pair perfectly as well.

    A nice place! We're sitting street-side with our pup playing Yatzee and enjoyed some great beer and amazing Turkey Sub, A Garden Salad, and Onion Rings. A friendly environment with great beer and food. Highly recommend!!!!

    I have visited this establishment twice for a beer and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Although I haven't sampled the food, the dishes I observed around me appeared appetizing. The space is open, well-lit, and features a nicely appointed bar with indoor and outdoor seating options. I highly recommend their Irish Red, which was the best beer I've tasted in the area.

    Carne Asada Fries
    Kristi B.

    A great to grab some good food in Arroyo Grande Village. Homemade chips, guac and salsa was a good start, but the carnitas taquitos were good. Taco Tuesday! 3 tacos for $12. Carne asada tacos, El pastor were very tasty. Hubby ordered the Carne Asada fries. We don't need them and we're stuffed with the all the rest! Definitely will go back when I'm back in town.

    Chili cheese fries
    Karen S.

    4 only because of the most uncomfortable stools and chairs I've ever sat on and the menu was a little pricey! The food was delicious - we shared from the appetizer menu. The dipping chili fries were decadent. The giant pretzel was old world style and soft inside with great dipping cheese. The Churros were perfect. We had great fun playing free Bingo (Monday nights) with the other patrons at the bar.

    If you're coming for the beer, their hazy was delicious and would highly recommend! As for the service, it was mid range.... No one was super friendly and they seemed put out by us being there. The food looked super promising on the menu, but unfortunately wasn't anything to write home about. Ambiance and overall vibe of the place was cool. Overall, it was promising and I had high hopes but fell short of expectations. If I was visiting the area again, I'd only stop in if all I wanted was a delicious beer.

    We had some really good beers and great food here. The bartender was nice and the seating options are good with a patio, bar and regular tables. It was bingo night too, which was fun. Because of other Yelp photos, I had the carnitas salad which was awesome. The beers: Captain's Cream Ale (great) Boots and Hose Citrus Blonde (very good) Dark Tank Irish Stout (great) Peanut Butter Falcon PB Brown (excellent)

    Fish tacos
    Jose M.

    The location is great and the staff if very friendly and attentive. Staff is easy 5/5! The food for me was just ok. Fried pickles- the pickles themselves were good but the batter was very bland. The Cajun aioli was delicious but I wish I didn't need to dip every bite to get the flavor. Fish tacos- again, very bland. The batter was lacking flavor and even the fish. Felt like there wasn't even salt there. Good portion and the slaw on top was fine but it needed so much more sauce or the fish to be seasoned. Over all not a bad place but the food left a lot to be desired

    Hanging out on the Central Coast, we stopped in for dinner at Humdinger Brewing in the Village. We were seated right away and our server was really friendly. We sat inside as the front patio was full. The vibe was cool. Mr. B found a beer and I had a glass of wine. We started off with a dish we love, and their version of Poutine didn't disappoint. Fries topped with rich gravy and covered with Beef Birria and fried cheese curds, life doesn't get much better if given the chance for a last meal, poutine would be it. For dinner, Mr. B went with the fish tacos, and they were topped with crispy slaw. They were really good, the only thing missing was some salt. The fish wasn't salted and was a tad bland. I ordered the mushroom tacos and they were delicious. Parking in the village can be a bit tricky as it is street parking. But we were able to find a spot out front. Just know you may have to search if on a weekend evening.

    Shared Turkey sandwich with onion rings. Yummy!
    Trina P.

    Delicious Turkey sandwich with onion rings. Tasty ranch dressing to go with the rings. We shared one. My sister always orders the Dinger Dog. They have great beers as well, according to my brother who lives in the area. We come here as dogs are permitted on outside patio. Excellent, friendly service. Clean, vibrant environment. They have events in the evenings as well. Check out Humdinger!

    This was my 3rd time coming to Blast 825 Brewery and this time was the best…read more Tonight me and wifey went on a double date with some good friends and chose this spot specifically for the beer, food and of course the Dodger game that was on tonight. We ordered a BBQ chicken pizza which was surprisingly delicious and the wife ordered a beer. We sat in the bar area and I decided to go with the self pour option where they give you a card to tap a sensor and select any beer on tap to pour yourself. Me and a buddy of mine had some issues with a few of the self pour taps where we just believed they were out of beer and it also over charged us. I told a server about my single issue where it over charged me and he said he would take care of it but my friend had the worst of luck. 2/3 beers he attempted to pour were simply out. This was when Jess, our savior came to the rescue. When it was time to pay the tab, she comped both of our orders. Mind you, I had 4 beers. Guess what the total was? Yeah, $28. Paid for my wife's beer and our pizza and because I had a single complication with the beer self pour station, she comped the 4 beers I had as well as my friend's order. This is Grade A customer service and a reason why I'd return to Blast 825 Brewery, so shoutout to Jess! We all appreciate you.

    Management, I am writing to express my frustration regarding…read moremy recent visit to your establishment. I will add that we have been frequent customers since day one. While I had high hopes for a good meal, the experience was significantly marred by several issues: Poor Service: We were largely ignored, with staff failing to address requests. The restaurant appeared severely understaffed, leading to incredibly long wait times for service. It took 25 minutes to be asked what we were drinking, and another 20 minutes for two beers to arrive Food Quality Issues: The food served was of low quality, specifically corn rib appetizer were ice cold , the tri-tip was very over cooked and was difficult to chew. My wife ordered the orcutt hill salad entree. The salad was missing two ingredients. Prosciutto and candied pecans. When asked about it the waitress said I will bring you some. She brought a cup of smoked ham, not prosciutto. She indicated that the kitchen was out of candied pecans. Don't you think that should be disclosed to the customer before ordering ? The salad was small, not an entree size. When we asked about seeing a manager, we got a bill with a neighborhood 15% reduction. When asked about that, I was told, that's all the manager is willing to do. Really ? I hope you take this feedback seriously to improve the experience for future guests. Sincerely, A Disappointed Customer
