I have been to the rooftop patio on two occasions, late night bites with coworkers, and this past weekend with friends for pizza. Each visit contained the same two things- meh service and wind. The rooftop is a seat-yourself situation, and the waitresses are running back and forth so it is easy not to be noticed after finding a table or spot to sit at. The pizza we ordered was great and definitely something I would recommend to anyone looking to try it out. We had the Avventura and Supreme and both were hearty with ample toppings. I have never had pine nuts on a pizza before, and the roasted garlic complimented it very well. We ended up getting to-go boxes which they were rather big slices. read more

Note to self - The food was GOOD! The beers were just okay. But confirm what is on the HH menu/options. Quality/Quantity - Yes, finally made it to this location... If you are following, you know the last time we came, I did not check their hours and they were closed... My fault. Well today, only the rooftop patio was open?!?! See pictures. A private event in half the place. Then all the tables except 3 were reserved?!?! Not very inviting, even for a Wednesday. Both my buddy and I had a late lunch, not together, just coincidental. So neither of us were hungry and since we got here at 4pm, we just wanted to start with the HH beers. The waitress did not seem happy... Sorry, but many of the other tables were just drinking also?!?! After a few beers, we got the chicken tacos and dry rub wings for our appetizers/dinner. And of course, more beers. Ambiance - Beautiful rooftop patio, too bad it was so restricted today. My suggestion is to have the private events in the main dining area, or close the patio and have all the reservations and walk-ins in the main dining area. It would have been nice to have more choices. Now open 7 days a week; see their website. Yelp's hours differ. Plenty of street parking. Got a space right in front, but then again, we got here right when they opened at 4pm. Service - Not sure if the waitress was new? Or just in a bad mood? She ignored us after our first beers?!?! If we would have had more attentive service, we would have drank and ate more. And when inquiring about the HH beers, with no menu, it was hard to know what was on HH or not, so I mistakenly ordered a beer that was not part of the HH options... Price - $60 + a more generous tip then deserved. I hope it will improve her mood. 3% credit card fee. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success at this location since 2025 and with your 4 other locations. read more

I've been here a few times now and would definitely recommend it! The pizzas, salads, and wings are consistently great, and the patio/live music makes for such a fun vibe. The service is hit or miss, but that could be just about any place, and it was also quite busy. We shared the Dry Rub Wood-Fired Chicken Wings (5 stars), the Mora Pizza from the brunch menu, and the breakfast burrito (4 stars). The Mora Pizza was easily the standout, honestly one of the best pizzas I've ever had. read more

While walking down 4th Street for the first time in a long time I couldn't help but notice the rooftop terrace. We had to check it out! I wasn't aware that this Lake Tahoe AleWork wasn't self serve beer. That is totally fine by me. We had a good time talking with KATE, I think that was her name! She was very friendly and told us about the bands playing next-door that evening and also the DJ that was upstairs. Wow, three flights of stairs to get to the roof, fine by me, I love my exercise! We didn't stay long, but stayed long enough to enjoy our beverage, sit by the fire pit and take some good snaps of Reno and the horizon. Good spot! read more

This review is really about the happy hour! AleWorX Reno has a pretty great happy hour with $6 beers, $6 well drinks and $16 one topping pizzas. I really enjoy the cold IPA, it's one of my favorites in the area. Also the wood fire pizza is delicious. The patio is wonderful, but can be a bit hot in the summer if you end up in the sun. Overall I highly recommend this for happy hour which is M-F 4-6pm read more

Stopped in for the first time for quick drink and a bite before heading to the Aces game. We opted to sit upstairs on the patio. It had plenty of seat in and was refreshing. The staff was quick to bring us menus while making friendly suggestions. We opted for the nachos with chicken. They were huge and had all the fixings. Chips were crisp and fresh. It was a good portion for the price. The hubby had the stout & I had a hazy both on happy hour for $6 bucks on draft. We enjoyed both and had another round before heading off. We definitely will return to explore the downstairs beer menu as well since I upstairs had a limited amount of beers. read more

My wife and I came in for a lunch date and had a nice easy lunch. We were hoping the rooftop patio was open since it was a beautiful day, but they hadn't yet opened yet so we sat in the main restaurant at the bar. That was actually my first time in there since we normally are on the patio, so that was nice. the bartender was friendly and quick to take our orders. AleWorx has a good beer selection, as expected, and while it looks like a pour your own tap setup, it's actually just a normal tap the bartender needs to fill that is across from the bar. This was my first time trying their wood-fired pizza. We ordered the Mora which has Blackberries as a topping and it was delicious! Of all the food items I've tried here, I think the Pizza is a standout and recommend trying as part of a meal. My only gripe about Aleworx is the parking situation. They have a lot about a block away and it's not in the greatest area so coming here at night may be problematic for some if you are alone or uncomfortable in sketchy areas. I've not had any issues but something to be aware of. We had a great visit, was happy we chose Aleworx for our lunch date and will be back on the patio soon! read more

The food was good for bar food. The service was not good at all. Had to get our own box and go find someone to pay with. Wasn't even that busy. The rooftop was the vibe. Chill music. Good variety of drinks. Will be back. read more

Tried Lake Tahoe aleworx for the first time a few weekends back on a chilly Sunday with our main goal of watching football with a leisurely Sunday beer. The cocktail and beer menu was plentiful, but we were also impressed with the wonderful menu options and large woodfired oven next to the bar. We tried the nachos and wings and loved the flavors of both of the them. The wings were crispy and had an excellent, not too salty or overdone dry rub & The nachos were plentiful and a good sized portion, The building itself has been beautifully updated and opens up to the Alpine event center. We didn't venture outside or upstairs to their rooftop bar on this chili, January Sunday but looks to be a one of a kind rooftop bar in the downtown brewery District. Lake Tahoe AleWorx is a beautiful addition to Reno's downtown brewery district adjacent the other great tap rooms in the area. read more

My husband and I visited for brunch and although the menu and hours they had posted online were different than the actual restaurant, we had a great time! We did the bubbles and brunch for $40, which honestly is a price that can't be beat! We had two entrees (avocado toast for me and waffles for him) and a bottle of bubbly with juice. Both were great, but not warm, which was kind of a bummer. I would have also liked to see them use something other than packaged syrup, which was also cold. I can't wait to come back when their rooftop is open, because that's what truly makes this place special! read more

We have been eyeing the rooftop patio of the new Lake Tahoe Ale Worx location on 4th Street since it opened and had the chance to stop by recently! We ordered and ate food in the downstairs restaurant area. Our server was friendly and prompt with our items. We started with some well cocktails and beers from the beer wall since it was happy hour. We also ordered the potato skins and The Pera Specialty Pie - both were delicious! After we ate, we headed up to the rooftop patio for a chill and were blown away by the layout, amount of seating, and the (second) full bar and wood fired oven ready to serve all the guests dining on the patio. Overall we had a great experience and can't wait to come back! read more

I came here for happy hour and was overall happy with my experience. I would say that the happy hour menu was a little confusing and our waitress didn't really seem to understand the menu either, but I just thought it was because they were a newer restaurant. When we came back for happy hour a month later, it was the same waitress and service was a little lackluster. She was on her phone a lot and we kind of had to flag her down, but overall, I think the quality of the food is great and a good spot! read more

Started off waiting for the host downstairs not knowing there was a separate host station upstairs so off we go to wait in another line. Once seated we ask what the house wine is, server had no idea, she didn't even know if the red was a cabernet, merlot, etc. Try to order a beer instead just to find out the beer selection is limited upstairs compared to downstairs, so I end up gambling with the unknown house red wine. Food was about average, nothing to write home about. My pizza came out nearly burnt, almost to the point of being sent back but the rest of the table had no complaints. The patio is a nice touch but be prepared for the typical Reno weather. It gets windy up there! Walking to the car after dinner was unsettling. Lots of not-so-great looking folks on the way back to the rear parking lot. If we do give this place another shot, we're definitely not parking in their lot. read more

Amazing Rooftop Experience -- Great Food, Service & Views The rooftop bar at Auburn Aleworks is absolutely stunning. The views are incredible, especially with the fire pit going--it created such a cozy, relaxing vibe that really took the experience to another level. We ordered pizza, and it did not disappoint. The flavor was amazing, and the crust was perfect--crispy, chewy, and clearly made with care. Pair that with the fantastic service, and we couldn't have asked for a better night. Lila did an amazing job. This is a must-visit spot if you're in Reno. We'll definitely be back! read more

They are known for their pizza, but don't sleep on their sandwiches. The French dip was awesome. The service was also friendly and fast. Great spot for a pre-game before a Reno Aces game. read more

We stopped in before an Aces game for drinks and a quick bite. The patio ambiance was really nice -- perfect for hanging out and socializing, especially on a warm evening. My husband and I split the bucket margarita ($26). It tasted fine, but the portion was surprisingly small -- more like a large coffee cup than a "bucket." We also ordered a pizza, but it was just okay. The crust was a little too burnt for my liking, and the sauce was pretty light, so it didn't have much flavor. We'll probably be back, but more for the drinks and the vibe than the food. Great spot to meet up with friends before a game, though! read more

To be fair, this rating is only for a few rounds of drinks before heading to an Aces game. The restaurant itself is very nice and feels super cozy. As this was our first time, we were trying to figure out the drinks menu. We asked our server for recommendations, but her response was that she couldn't really give any, because she had only been working there for 4 days. Honestly, she was running around doing her best, but probably could've used some help from a more experienced server. I also glanced at the menu and can understand the high prices/limited menu comments, however, I'll have to come try the food myself and give my thoughts at a later time. Giving it a 3/5 experience today. read more

Pera is my favorite pizza here, and their rooftop is the perfect spot to hang out with friends when the weather's nice.

Lake Tahoe Aleworx is famous for its IPA's and that's how I discovered the restaurant and event center. The Pizza and wings were excellent. The pizza comes in one size, medium which feeds 2 to 3 people. The wings came in 3 flavors Buffalo, sweet chili and barbecue. The waitress recommended to order them extra crispy. They were served super hot on the inside and crunchy outside. The area is called the Brewery District which is comprised of old Reno buildings renovated into breweries and restaurants. The area does have its share of sketchy surroundings so be alert. The service was great and friendly. The parking is street only. The roof dining area was also closed. read more

Grabbed some lunch with friends and came to Lake Tahoe Aleworx on a recommendation. We had heard the roof balcony was nice but learned there was a $5 cover charge to get up there and decided not to do it. We ordered the beer cheese nachos and a carne pizza. Both came out to the table lightning fast and hot. The pizza was great especially when paired with the ranch dressing served, and the nachos hit the spot and the cheese was excellent. All in all great food and service. It is a little pricier considering both are going to total $50 but it was a great little spot and I would come back again. read more

The new Lake Tahoe Ale Works can be found in downtown Reno on 4th street across from the Depot. They have a rooftop bar with cozy fire pits and rocking chairs along with picnic tables, bar area for seating and wood-burning stove for pizza. We had the Italian sub no pesto and homemade chips. It was extremely tasty. We mostly enjoyed the sunshine and relaxing atmosphere. They do have a DJ on the other side of the rooftop, but we chose the quiet corner. This place is about seating with others and sharing space. Sarah & Katie were our services and they were doing a good job checking on us. They have their own parking lot on Record Street since the Reno Homeless area had which is now fenced off. I believe they moved down a few miles to the new shelter/service area. It's still has some homeless going on, but much better then before. They had staff taking care of people on the sidewalks to have them removed from the property entrance. This area is still shady, but I think it will improve overtime. I'm excited about this new place, I think it's going to be a huge asset to the area and they'll do well with the locals, UNR students, and of course the tourists. read more

We loved visiting aleworx in Tahoe and are so glad they have one in Reno now! The new location is beautiful with a rooftop that's complete with rocking chairs and fire pits. We enjoyed eating up on the rooftop with kids, relaxing in the rocking chairs and soaking up the sunshine. The building itself is in a neighborhood that is still being cleaned up but I'm hopeful that it'll be done soon. We love the tartufo pizza that has just the right amount of truffle. The crust is crispy and the flavors of the toppings all work so well together. They also have rotating taps to pair your pizza with some beer! This will definitely become a new summer staple! read more

Stopped in for early dinner on a Friday and the place was packed! Loved that they still had happy hour specials on Friday AND it went til 6pm--score! Really good deals too. Service was a little slow to start but again, packed, so nbd. We got a Cobb salad, pepperoni pizza, and sweet chili wings and everything tasted amazing. My husband did wish the wings were slightly crispier, and he said while they weren't spicy they were still good. The only bummer and reason for 1 star off was that the pizza came a good 15-20 minutes after the other items, so we were basically done before that. In addition, the pizza was for my toddler to eat--luckily he was into (barely) the wings and ham on my salad to hold him over, but it was a narrow miss if you know what I mean lol. Once it came though, it was really good and he chowed it down but the inconsistency was a little tough. I'd still recommend them and come back for another try though! There aren't a ton of family friendly, but still fun, brewpubs in the area so I def appreciate what they're bringing to the food scene! read more

Went last night before the baseball game. Was disappointed with the service as they only had one and a half employees working the main dining room and bar. The slow service made us very late for the game and it was very hard for kids to wait for us to get the check and pay for the meal. Other than that, the two pizzas we had were still great. We still enjoyed the facility space. read more

Great roof top bar and restaurant in the brewery district in Reno. They can make any of their alcoholic beverages into a mocktail so I tried their cucumber splash and it was delicious. The fire places were perfect for sitting by and enjoying your drink and the downtown view with friends. read more

A friend and I visited mid week for an early dinner. The location is quite pleasant with outside tables, trees, air and sun. We ordered and paid for both pizza and beer at the counter. Pizza was brought over by a waitress who seemed rather inexperienced (no plates, silverware, napkins - we had to ask....) Asking for a 20%-25%-30% tip just to have a pizza brought to our table is a bit much. Asking for the same tip for self-serve beer service is ridiculous. Begging for an additional 2%-3%-5%-7% on the credit card receipt is laughable. The pizza was fine. The choice of beer was very nice and the concept that allows you to choose which beer and how much you want to consume is excellent but it is SELF-SERVE. Suggestion: focus on your customers' experience instead of shaming your patrons to pay for non-existent service. read more

This spot is perfect for a quick and tasty meal! The food came out fast and fresh, and the staff was super friendly.

Arrived and there were three other tables occupied. Sat down and we were the fourth table occupied. Sat and waited 15 min and were ignored the entire time. Other parties showed up and were served. I'm not sure what we did to the waitress but at that point we hadn't even talked to her. Sat and waited another 5-10 minutes and nothing. Can't say we will ever go back... read more

We love their pizza and home brews. With nicer weather they also have an insane rooftop bar toe joy your tasty meal. They have 2 epics spots on South Lake so let's hit this one up so they can stay!!! The do have live music too, which is super fun. Wish they'd link to the musicians songs but that's the only issue...hard to look up every concert to make sure we like the music. Overall a great music venue. Good vibes, good drinks and pizza can be delivered to the music hall. Pizza is delicious high altitude crust in a custom wood fired over: read more

Great new addition to the downtown brewery row area offering a rooftop dining/seating area. The service was excellent, the drinks were yummy and the food was delicious!! We ordered the raw oysters and dry rub wings which are roasted over a wood open fire!! The downside to the experience was that they are charging $5 cover charge during a Sunday brunch for a DJ that played basic bar tunes. I'd suggest they tap into the local talent and put the money towards live entertainment. I'd recommend dining on the lower level for free! read more

Stopped into the new Lake Tahoe Ale Worx location today around 12:30 PM for lunch. We didn't know that only the brunch menu is served until 2pm on the weekends, so we were a bit bummed we couldn't get wood fired pizza which is what we were hoping for. Anyway, we ordered a beer and waters for the table. The crushable lager was light and refreshing, served very cold. Solid choice. We had to make a special request to order off of the kids menu, since it's not included on the brunch menu. The kitchen honored the request and we were able to order the kids buttered pasta as well as the chicken club with chips and the liege waffle. The waffle was tasty and the portion was average. Bacon was nice and crispy. The chicken club was seasoned well but the chicken was very dry and the sandwich lacked sauce, which it desperately needed. The kids pasta, for a price tag of $10, was an extremely small serving and came with no side options or included beverages. For the price, the meal was ok. The service was mediocre. The wait time seemed long between drinks and food orders. There was an included 20% gratuity on the check. I am not sure why. Our party was only 5, two were children, and then the payment device asked for an additional tip on top of that. I think the highlight of this place is the venue itself, though even that's a hard sell since it's located in an area of Reno that is often regarded as quite unsavory. The building itself is very cool though and offers a lot in terms of live music and downtown bar vibes. Overall, I would go 3.5 stars, and perhaps the lunch and dinner menu would be a bit better, but with the strange added gratuity, the average service, and just OK food, I leaned towards a 3 star rating over the 4. read more

We met friends here for dinner and had a mostly great experience. While we were seated right away, we shared a large community table with another group, which led to some confusion about who was supposed to serve us. Growing pains of a newer spot, I suppose! On to the food--I ordered the street tacos, and they were delicious. The chicken was shredded and juicy, and the verde salsa had great flavor (I'm a sucker for a good verde). The chips, however, were a little stale. The rest of our group went with the prime rib, and while the flavor was good, it arrived only semi-warm, and the rare order came out medium. Definitely a little room for improvement there. Drinks were a win! My husband loved the beer, and my cocktail, the Maine Bae, was fantastic--especially with the addition of gin and lavender. Overall, there are some kinks to work out, but it's a solid spot with a good vibe. We'll be back! read more

Tahoe AleWorX in Reno is a favorite every time. The pizza with blackberries is hands-down my go-to. so good, and my absolute favorite to order to-go.

Great food, great vibe, and always a solid choice. read more

Went in a couple weeks ago before seeing JustinFerstenfeld and had wonderful drinks and nachos. Love the vibe and atmosphere. Beautiful inside. We met up this Saturday before a show at 6:45 to have dinner before a show. Went upstairs and it was very busy and cool. We found a table downstairs and waited for the server to wipe the table off. I could see that she was struggling. It took way too long for her to get our drink and food order. We couldn't order pizza because I feared we would be late for the show. Be no means was her fault that she was the only server. The food we had was great. I only wish French fries were on the menu and not chips. The drinks were good. I know inflation is in effect when we pay $14 for a mixed drink I'll have to try happy hour sometime up stairs. Love the changes happening on 4th street. read more

Four stars only because I didn't get to try the food, parking sucks and it was pouring rain so no upstairs patio none of which are the fault of this establishment! Solid happy hour menu. Good Manhattan and nice selection of brews. Cool vibe with the brick walls. Parking sucks as usual so prepare to look for street parking a few blocks away depending on day and time you go. Always nice to see more and more businesses on 4th street. Service is quick and attentive. read more

Our pizza dough was undercooked. Waited about an hour and food undercooked which is unacceptable.

This is their third restaurant and their only one in Reno. We've loved the other two and are happy to have one close. Great location, with plenty of parking nearby, and a beautiful venue! Two separate dining rooms inside, one that is more family-oriented and one that is bar and music centered, with a stage for live bands. There is also a beautiful outdoor, upper deck with a separate bar and dining area, with several fire pits for chilly nights! This can be accessed from stairs inside or outside. The artwork is super cool and they did a beautiful job remodeling the interior. There are two pizza ovens and a large menu to choose from. They have an onsite brewery for craft beer brewing, and three full service bars as well. We came opening weekend and it was packed and a little understaffed, but our server was amazing! She was covering the entire front area (family friendly side) and she did a great job! Our drink order was taken quickly, as was our food order. Our food arrived hot and fresh and she was super nice and friendly! She took great care of us and cleared all of our plates, ensuring we were well taken care of. We tried several of their flagship beers and loved them. My husband ordered a Moscow Mule and although he was disappointed that it wasn't in a copper mug, he said it was very good. We tried the Margherita Pizza, the Nachos with chicken, and the sweet chili wings. The pizza was ok, it didn't have tomato on top, only in the sauce, but the basil was fresh. The crust was good, but wasn't as wood fired as we'd expected. We may try a different pizza, but wouldn't order this one again. The wings were delicious! They were large, tasty and cooked perfectly! They are served with either ranch or Blue Cheese and the carrots and celery were fresh and crisp! The nachos were perfect for sharing and the beer cheese sauce was delicious. There were plenty of toppings and not one chip was dry. We were very impressed with how well everything turned out during such a busy time and we will definitely return! read more

Nice setting. Service was good. Great pizza. The rooftop is a great place too enjoy the elements and people watch. Highly recommended.

Lake Tahoe Ale Worx has bypassed the opening hiccups and has become a great new addition to Downtown Reno. The staff seated us quickly despite being quite busy. Our server, Chelsey, came up to us and took our drink order. A Crushable Lager was light and perfectly balanced with flavor. The Cucumber splash was refreshing and great combination of tastiness. The street tacos were very pleasant and served with chips and green salsa. Personally, I'd like to taste a little more spiciness but the tacos had good flavor and a nice crisp to the meat. The chili dry rub wings were very tasty and also very crispy. An additional benefit was the nice size of the wings, plump and moist on the inside. Lake Tahoe Ale Work is very spacious and has a very good happy hour. This place is worth a try. read more
