Love the ambiance. Cozy and warm feeling, and was playing some of the best music while I was there. :) Food was good, as was the mulled wine. Fun selection of beer, though I wish they had it written down on paper somewhere; it can be hard to see what is scrawled up there. Wish I had come here sooner; it would have been a regular spot this last year! read more

Good brews, pie, espresso, gelato, tapas, friendly owner, this place has it all. Small and cozy, reminds me of a place you'd find in Amsterdam. My new favorite bar in Sac. read more

Karma Brew - From the patio - Bars Near Me - Sacramento, California

This small little bar/cafe/restaurant is very very cool! Now it is tight in there so if your feeling bloated you might a hard time squeezing into a table i know that i did! I didn't eat on my excursion here but I did enjoy a beer! They have a very good beer selection especially if you don't like hops. The beers they do choose to have on tap are ones you won't necessarily find at every other bar so that was definitely refreshing! They also have a full bar and good options for wine. Overall if you are looking for a cute little place to grab a drink with a friend or two but no more than four then this place is well worth swinging by! Cheers! read more

Okay listen. This place rules Anthony knows his shit besides Pink Floyd he knows how to run a really fine establishment with awesome drinks and even better atmosphere. Besides spending a wonderful albeit even magical night with a girl here, I plan on spending most of my somewhere on the patio, you know enjoying life read more

Great import/craft brew selection. I didn't even see a tab for domestic which is a-ok with me. I tried the hemp ale and it was good, lots of head and caramel-ly. The music was nice and relaxing, not mainstream either. The atmosphere was small, cozy and eclectic with steampunk espresso machines, old swords and shields on the wall and stained glass windows. There is a nice outdoor patio area as well. Nice place to stop into for sure read more

Love this place! It was my first time here and I absolutely had a great experience. The owner Anthony is so welcoming and the bartender Emily is so darn sweet. The hummus platter was delicious and the drinks were so darn good. I had this new drink called The Grand Scot and when I say this drink is FIRE I mean it. 10/10 would recommend! read more

The decor is neat. Like legit cool and interesting and something that you won't find pretty much anywhere else. The owner obviously likes to thrift and has good taste. The porch is hella nice too. Smoking is allowed so your enjoyment might be affected. The wine pours are fair and they have some really, really nice glassware. Glad I don't have to handle that as an employee because it's way too nice for a bar setting but damn the big glasses (that not everyone gets) are impressive. Sadly, I have to agree with many of the other reviews. Minus three stars for the unadvertised 8-12oz beer pours. That's criminal. I work at a place that sells a lot of beer and every pour that is less than a pint is clearly advertised and servers are required to inform customers that they are getting less than 16oz because that's what everyone expects when they get a beer at a bar. At least Zelda's only pulls this for a $1 domestic and a $2 Bud is legit and even if they forget to tell you it's just a buck. For a place that comes up as "Karma Brew," the tap list is small and somewhat standard. Beer drinkers can find everything Karma has everywhere else. Shoot, you can find it all at University of Beer and Burgers and Brew. There are obviously not enough beer glasses since you can see the bartenders pour ice water in glasses that have just been washed and see the ice melt very quickly. My beer glass was not room temperature and affected my $7 8oz drink. I ordered a Sangria next and I'm almost positive that it's Franzia. I still remember college. At the register, I poked my head around to look into the bak and I swear I saw a white box sitting above the food prep. Also, I suspect that it's Forever Sangria. It tastes bitter, which is what happens when you let sangria sit for too long. I watched an employee simply top off the container of it when it was about a third empty. Ummm...that should be drained and rotated. And it would explain why the fruit was inedible. I really hope that's not what they're doing, but it sure tasted like it. If you do go to Karma, stick with the wine. It's the only decent deal there and I'm still kicking myself for not just following my date's lead. Strangely enough, they don't do any real speciality cocktails other than some strange (or novel if you're not writing a two star review) and the space and business model seems to practically demand it. And while the decor is really neat, the seating wasn't comfortable; we moved twice. This should be a great date night spot and it still is if you stick to wine. But don't wander from that or you will be disappointed. read more

The positive - this place has a great look, unlike anything I've seen around. I've read in a review that it reminded them of a gypsy tavern and I have to agree. We sat inside, and got a nice table that looked like a tree stump, but I noticed that the patio was small but very popular place to sit. They also had a spot for dogs to take a water break too. The negative - Sadly the look didn't make up for my experience there. The female bartender was rude. Never really answered a question and always acting like either she didn't want us there or had better people to help then us. Which is odd cause there was only 3 other people inside when we came in. My drink tasted like watered down quick (the powered chocolate drink) and all our food was way over vinegared and too mushy, like they were making baby food and not Tapas . I would guess it was vinegared (not a word I know) to make it last longer in a refrigerator, (like your prepacked potato salad at a cheap grocers), and then reheated. Tapas is not hard to make fresh daily and make it good. Sorry, but its not. I didn't get into the beers, because I didn't want to give more money to a place that messed up my cocktail, food and was rude. read more

What I really like about Karma Brew, is the relax atmosphere here. It's not uptight, or full of loud tech music, just cool vibes. The owner is pretty cool, he takes pride in the food they serve and they have pretty interesting beers on tap! Weihenstephan 1040 AD is one of them!! Their wine selection is very small, but, its alright, just local wines. They have pretty awesome Sangria as well. I had the Grape Leaves app, and I was not a fan. But their tiramisu is very delicious, they add Port to it. They're coffee is strong just the way I like it, I like their cappuccino, it's great. Anyways I hope this place can stay small and keep the same chill hang out environment. read more

The sangria is so good. Hands down the best I ever had. This place is so funky and cool. The appetizer we ordered was strange. Salad looked like it was on the verge of turning bad. I'm not sure I will order food the next time I am there. But I will definitely come back for the sangria. read more

Didn't get a chance to return to this spot too often, but every time I was here - it felt like returning to a good book. Decorations are delightfully schizophrenic, the lighting kept dim (just perfect), and the brews are always cold. read more

We were walking by and happen to notice this little gem so went in to try it out. It's a tiny, cozy place with a great beer selection. The owner was there and he was really nice. I will definitely be going back to try the food. read more

Very dangerous. They cram as many people as possible into an extremely small outdoor patio. No regard for social distancing at all

Karma Brew is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. This place is cozy and intimate, and the owner, Anthony, will genuinely charm you into wanting to return time and time again. And the beer and the Portobello sandwich will have you wanting to come back, too!! read more

I love this place because it's so different from other bars in Sacramento. I also think it reminds me of the bars in Oakland. This is a small and cozy place which is very eclectic. This is a intimate setting for a couple not a group or possibly to just talk to a friend over a beer. This is not a establishment for one who would like to get there swerve on or the local alcoholics. The beers on tap are great and totally recommend this chill spot. Also this place is really small so keep that in mind. read more

I love karma. It's a small little wine bar in a nice location. Get a charcuterie board and a glass of Pino and you're good to go! It is a little small so seating is limited. read more

What a cool place!!! Great beers, great wines, and an awesome vibe. Try the hummus or cheese platters with a nice Sangria!! And speaking about the sangria: this is the best I've ever had. Not only is the sangria amazing, the owner makes a jam out of the fruit that is out of this world!!! read more

drinks have always been fabulous, as well as the atmosphere (5+ years experience)... however, the staff have always been distant and reluctant at making us feel at home. tonight we asked for a request for a song (after we asked if christmas music could play, with enjoyment and agreement of staff) the bartender bringing our drinks (after leaving a tip each time when others where leaving none) said "i'm sorry i'm working", when we were one of two tables left. again, we have alway enjoyed karma and the drinks, but this was silly dismissal of a easy request that everyone would have been happy with. merry christmas, but apparently not at karma brew! merry christmas!!!!! update: you just simply need to tell guests that you'll 'take care of that" or "get right on that", regardless if they can't or not. i think karma really needs to consider the staff on hand to ensure guest enjoyment (considering the ownership care when it comes to guest experience) considering how small the establishment is. great environment like i said, when you get passed staff. read more

Loved the vibe and ambience of this bar. The Sangria, knocked my socks off! Literally it was the most amazing thing I've put in my face in a long time! The bartender told us that he checks on the sangria and tends to it every hour. That is dedication my friends of someone who is passionate about their craft. "The proof is in the pudding" or in this case.... It's in the Sangria! Made with love! I'm excited to go back and actually try their food now! read more

Karma Brew - The Sangria is served with a fork so u can enjoy all the delicious marinated fruit. It is also topped with cinnamon. - Bars Near Me - Sacramento, California

I've been here about four or five times and each experience is unique and good. The owner is very nice and has somewhat of a charm to him. He's hospitable and old school while exerting a very welcoming energy to each person who walks in. The place is small and quaint. You will enjoy!!!! read more

Extremely hipster and cool inside but I won't rush to return. The sampler platter was mediocre and the beer was fine but a little flat. The prices were fair, they won't kill your budget. I'd come for the ambiance, it's definitely unique but definitely not for the food. read more

Tired from walking around Fremont Park for the Chalk It Up event on a hot day Karma Brew was a nice little stop to chill. The sangria was super tasty with the dusting of cinnamon on it, and the eclectic interior plus the music from old 70's albums made me just want to sit and take it all in. Cute little place. I'll have to come back for food and of course more sangria one evening! read more

Without a doubt one of the coziest places you can find. Friend of mine and I were looking for one of the many breweries around town and we drove past this establishment and became drawn by the quaint hole in the wall atmosphere. Walking in feels like you've entered the inside of your grandfathers mind. Or an old ship that has been sailing for years. Since that first encounter we can't stop going back for more. Aside from the fine beer and wine selections, you'll find delicious food, nostalgia, and a nice place to warm your heart. read more

Really digg'in this place. Like the vibe. Small, cozy and quaint. Not a huge selection of beer and the menu is simple but what we had was very good. Ordered Mischief and Allagash.

Will be back. read more
