They had a taco truck outside the main entrance and we got some nachos from there. Nachos were ok, but glad there were some food options.

At first glance looks like a…read moredecent spot but the asian girl working made it SO outward and apparent that she either didnt want us there, is a homophob or she just doesn't like other asian girls. we were the only 2 girls there aside from an african american girl with her bf who she had no issue with. We are beer drinkers and have been to alot of different spots and this place appeared to accommodate only "regulars" or maybe douche guys that sit at the bar and need their egos to be stroked by a female. Either way rude service overpriced beer with NO TASTERS and basic selection. Wont be returning

There are weekly tournaments, a PC area, and plenty of board games. Because this spot is in downtown SJ, it can be a bit difficult to find parking, though for $10-20 you can find a spot in a nearby lot or parking garage. It is a spacious venue, and there is always something going on. They occasionally do get rented out for events, though, so I'd recommend checking ahead of time, especially if you're not a regular. The staff here is great; everyone is really friendly, and the bartenders are quick and accommodating. The food here is decent, though it can be a little slow in coming out. Their selection of drinks is solid as well, and the bartenders are helpful in making recommendations if you're unsure. Overall, it's a really great spot to hang out after work--there is free WiFi, a ton of space, and a lot to do. I'd recommend figuring out when they're hosting events you enjoy or coming by with some friends if you're interested in board games.

My husband and I had a baby free night out to celebrate my birthday and haberdasher did not disappoint. We went soon after opening so there was no line but I know they tend to have one later in the evening. We were greeted warmly at the door by the attendant who checked our ids. I was even wished a happy early birthday. When going into the bar, you walk down a staircase into a space that makes you forget you're in downtown San Jose with beautiful reds and burgundy decor. The staff is all smartly dressed; the bartender and bar back were both sweet and funny. I ordered a jack rose (my all time favorite), their seasonal watermelon waltz (this may be a new favorite for me, nice and refreshing) and one of their zero proof cocktails called a Mariposa which was soooo good as well. My husband ordered a couple old fashioned and a watermelon waltz for himself. We had an amazing time and look forward to coming back in the future.

And they don't allow outside food in even if the food was leftover in Togo bags from dinner. The place was busy when we finally went inside. But the bartenders were fast and we got two rounds of drinks as far as we could order. The dim lighting did look reddish. The large tables were reserved but there plenty of smaller high tops around. Memorable drinks were the perfect pear and the Andean Ascent. Perfect pear was not fruity at all and had a nice aroma and spice to it. The Andean ascent was a nice drink to start with, refreshing with a bit of fizz.

My date and I were looking for a place to grab food after some drinks at mini boss. Was surprised…read moreto see a skewer place in dtsj just down the street from all the bars. It's a a bit small and right next to the corner so you might walk past the sign without realizing it. Food was cheap, the skewered were a tad over cooked but no where near bad or tough. I'd rate the skewered a 3.8/5, we got beef, lamb, and a mushroom one. Garlic fries were tad soggy but they were made fresh with loads of fresh garlic, would bump up the score if they were a bit crunchier 3/5 Onion rings were a little on the harder side but we weren't looking for anything super fancy 3/5 Veggie egg rolls were small but they came with soy sauce and sweet/sour sauce. I want to note that even though most of the food seemed to be premade/ store bought, they sold them for CHEAP and the wine was cheap too with a generous pour. You get what you pay for food wise and the service was great so it was a nice cheap place to grabe a few small bites, drinks and chat before jumping into clubs like temple, lab or splash (just a short walk in each direction) The service was really good and quick! They were nice people and very attentive to my date and I. I would definitely come back again in the middle of a night out in dtsj :) Thank you to skewers and brew for saving our tummies that night!!

I've been hearing about this brewery for a couple of years now, especially because they have Ube…read morebeer! I finally got around to trying this brewery out because I saw that they had both an ube AND pandan seasonal beer available! I love that they consistently update their website with the types of beers they have on tap, so that can be useful if you're looking for a specific flavor! They also seem to have a rotating number of varying food trucks and food vendors, so it's great to stay updated on their instagram to know what food they'll be serving! Now onto the brewery itself! I was very surprised to find out that they were in the middle of a neighborhood so it can be kind of challenging to find parking, since it's all street parking. The inside was actually pretty small as well, with a couple of tables outside and some tables inside. However, it was very lively with one of the workers spinning some vinyl! It's honestly a great place to catch up with some friends with good food and even better beer! I ended up going on a day where they had a Filipino food truck, which paired super nicely with the beers we got! We got to try their Ube Illin, which was very vibrant and nutty, as well as their pandan beer called Một, Hai, Ba, Dô! Both were very full-flavored but not super overpowering where you can still taste the aromatics of the beer! TLDR; This place has unique flavors, delicious beer, and is a great place for chill hangouts!
