This one was a mixed bag. On the good side, the rooftop patio has a great view, is quiet, and plenty of seating. Some of the beers were good as well but nothing that stood out a lot. We got the tofu banmi with corn salad and the corn salad was a nice mixture of spices, textures, and creaminess. The service was good as well. There was a good repuar and they checked in often even with an event going on. The banmi itself was just decent. I liked the smokiness of the tofu and the sharp tang of the veggies but there was not much texture on most of it. The bread and tofu could have used a bit of a grill or fry. The downstairs atmosphere wasnt really our thing. It was pretty bright with tones of seating pretty close and some odd decor. It wasnt bad, but just not our thing. read more

OCC Brewing is aptly named, sitting pretty along this lovely stretch of businesses in Old Colorado City. My experience was fine, no more no less. TLDR: beer is good, food was meh. The selling point is the rooftop, which I've only seen through photos. The night I visited was fairly cool out, so even though they had the garage doors open, they ended up closing them to keep warm. The downstairs taproom is a good size, open floor plan with plenty of seating for all types of crowds. Brown ales were calling and you better believe I answered the call! I tried both the Leroy Brown Ale and Knight Rider Stout. These were enjoyable sippers and I cozied up at the bar. Green Chili Bier Cheese Soup ($7.00/Cup$9.00/Bowl) // A classic bier cheese soup with green chilis. A great idea in theory. In execution, this wasn't good and I don't say that lightly. I could picture Gordon Ramsay spitting it out. I couldn't even finish it, and mom always taught me to finish my food. I was hoping this would warm me up on a cool evening. Stay away and hopefully their other menu items are better! If the circumstances were right I could see myself returning. But IMO there are better options in the area for food and beer! read more

I don't know what occ does to the occ burger but it's one of the best burgers I've ever had! It's a perfect balance of flavors and the sun-dried tomato aïoli takes it over the top! Such a fun spot for trivia and a night out with the friends. read more

Went for a late cocktail lunch on Saturday. Their roof top seating has excellent mountain views. We sat ourselves but were greeted and had our orders taken within a few minutes of arriving. We had the green chili cheese fries and hummus appetizer. Both were delicious! The server was very attentive checking on us frequently to take several different drink orders while we dined. Would absolutely be back again! read more

Often when I travel I enjoy checking out local micro breweries, and OCC Brewing did not disappoint! The day we happened to visit was a festival, I can't remember the name, but we weren't expecting it and it did change up how they did their menu for that day. My husband and I were hoping to try a flight, but flights were not offered due to simplifying things for their staff on a busy weekend. All of that being said, the whole reason I'm giving them five stars is because of the staff working - they were incredible. They offered us some samples since we couldn't do a flight and talked us through the menu. They really had a great attitude and helped us make the best of the day. We ended up enjoying our beers and shared a few apps and ordered a hamburger for our kiddo. All in all it was a fun visit and I'd recommend to anyone wanting a laid back, super friendly place to grab a bite and a beer while in Old Colorado City. read more

My friend and I were looking for dinner. We initially decided on a different restaurant, but then my derpy friend accidentally brought us to OCC Brewing. Fortunately, it was a happy mistake as we really enjoyed our food. I had the penne pasta, which was loaded with mushrooms and flavor. The earthy mushrooms perfectly complemented the creamy sauce and Parmesan. Moreover, the amount of bacon was perfect - enough to seep through the sauce while not overpowering the dish. Additionally, OCC Brewing has a neat rooftop space that offers an excellent view of the mountains. Overall, I would highly recommend OCC Brewing if you're in the area. read more

Ate on the rooftop patio--great vibes, amazing service, and a beer flight that could make any hop-head swoon. Loaded mac & cheese = solid. The two pretzels with sausage, sauerkraut & slaw? Mid. Like frozen-then-microwaved mid. Slaw barely whispered hello. Asian cheesesteak with Brussels sprouts = interesting, if you like surprises. Dessert: ale cookie with ice cream = actually delightful. Moral of the story: come for the beer, not the food. We'll be back for drinks... maybe with a snack just to watch it politely. read more

First time to OCC...the area of town and the brewery. We both enjoyed one of their porters. Having looked at the menu online, we were surprised to see most of the dishes that interested us not on the regular menu. Turned out it was 1:50, so we were still seeing the brunch menu. Our waitress gave us the lunch menu, and by the time we were ready to order, she was able to put it in for us. I had the bulgogi sandwich with corn side, while my wife had the chicken salad sandwich with fries. My sandwich was bigger than it appeared in pics, so that was good. There could've been more meat, and there was a lot of bread, but the meat was juicy, and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. Corn was really good too. My wife liked her chicken salad sandwich but thought there was too much bread, which was also a little dry. Fries were fine. Service was consistent throughout. It was attentive, and food came out pretty fast. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. read more

This was a really cool spot that I'm glad I checked out when I was in the springs. It's a pretty huge bar with a whole downstairs seating area, an outdoor seating area, and a rooftop patio (which I recommend during good weather) that had a great view of the mountains. The food was par and pretty heavy. The beers on tap had some pretty hilarious names and tasted great. The bartenders were friendly as well. The only thing I have to say that was negative about this place was that when I went up to close my tab, they gave me the wrong bill, and I ended up paying for some completely random person's food and drinks. They then took 10-15 minutes to reverse this transaction and give me my original bill. I'm glad I noticed this since they did not give me an itemised version of the receipt. I hope this doesn't happen often because this place is legit! read more

Really good service brussels sprouts were amazing. I'm not gonna lie that burger was maybe my favorite burger I've had in Colorado Springs so flavorful grilled onions were so delicious.

Quick afternoon stop, as it is part of the Pike's Peak Road Runners Community Cup full moon "run" this month. We had already had lunch elsewhere so chose beer and a dessert.

We had plans to eat at the bbq place next door but they were closed. As we stood outside wonder what to do, the bartender at OCC Brewing came out to check on us and lured us in. This isn't just a brew pub with bar food. Everything they make is elevated. We ordered 2 Santa Fe Caesar salads to go. While we waited, we had some local craft beer and their fried pickles. Wow, you have to definitely try the fried pickles, they were amazing! The staff was super friendly. There was outside seating along the guardrail too. The salads were huge and really tasty. Very generous on the bacon and chicken. Very high end food for a bar, a pleasant surprise read more

We spent here a sunny Saturday afternoon, the place was pretty full but not packed, the large doors were open and the atmosphere was very good. The place is not too loud, you can easily have a conversation. We wanted to sit in the roof patio area which is very nice, but it was too windy. The service was excellent, I wish I remembered the server name, there were two girls who took care of us and everything was perfect. I also had a glass of their "Bad B*ches" IPA and it wasn't bad at all (ha ha). The brewery is located at the very end of the "busy" area of the main street a block after the park, so if you're touring the main area, it's worth going a block further to get to this place. read more

We came here at the recommendation of a tour guide because he said this was his favorite local place. The beer and food did not disappoint. The vegetable pot stickers and the fried mushrooms with dipping sauces were completely amazing. They also had a wide selection of beer I got a crisp Pilsner. I love that they have different sizes. The vibe was casual and the music was good. Parking is in a paid parking lot for the area. read more

Really enjoyed the food here. I got the Kick Ass salad and it was outstanding! Only sampled a 4oz pour of a Pilsner so I do not have too much of an opinion on the beer. Nice casual spot for food and drinks. read more

Ok. So here we go. I am a locksmith by trade. Every day I learn something. New. I hone my craft day after day. I use my hands to make sure the each lock I install is positioned just right and each key I make is made with the most precision modern day key cutting machines will allow. I make sure the as the key turns the lock does not bind up and cause the customer any frustration. I make sure that I go above and beyond to make sure I am THE expert at what I do and my customers are wow'ed with the work I do and the service I provide. I actually make sure my prices are fare and competitive as to give the customer a good value for their money. I spend my week doing this and I feel pride at the end of the day knowing I did the best I could in my industry and made my customer happy. At the end of the week I get a paycheck. I then go to a place like OCC brewing and they serve me this bullish and expect me to use my hard earned money. They did not perfect the nacho, and learn to craft it over time, year after year, to provide thier customer with the best nachos they've ever had. They are trying. To see if they can get away with service me sloppy chips with wet sauce. No beans. Try to charge extra for meat. No care. No craft. No thought and passion. The owners are off somewhere laughing with pockets full of money. Taking about how funny it is that us working class are falling for thier money saving bullish tricks and how much they made off us losers. They sleep like a baby at night and never give it a second thought. Don't support these rip off artists. And for the love of god. Do not order the nachos here Hellen Keller makes better nachos. An alien who doesn't know what human g food is. But saw a picture of nachos one time. Makes better nachos. A fetus makes better nachos. I'm personally offended you would make your poor servers serve that to people and embarrass them like that. Taco Bell wouldn't serve this crap read more

Quick stroll through the neighborhood brought me to OCC today. Open area seating of your choice was pleasant and I most definitely loved the color scheme they had throughout, we may have beat the rush on this one but I can tell they were ready for it. (Nobody wants to get stuck in the weeds). The food was phenomenal for happy hour. Even tho they you may think they'll smaller portions for happy hour, they were definitely filling. From the fried pickles to their OCC burger, phenomenal. I will be back to try some of the items on their drink menu for sure! read more

Visited OCC Brewing for the first time a few weeks ago and have been back twice since. We still can't believe that we haven't discovered it before. The service was incredibly timely and attentive, especially considering how busy it got on this random Tuesday. Must note that the food is INCREDIBLE! Please check out the menu, it is good that has an interesting twist, some menu items I've never even seen. Quite frankly everything about OCC Brewing is incredible, but the $15 weekly burger special knocked my socks off. It's $15 for a hand crafted brisket burger, fries and a pint of their craft beer. Each week it is different, written out and posted sometime between Sunday and Monday. The week that I tried it was SO GOOD OMG YOU DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND. Please utilize this amazing lunch special. read more

Cute place! Great beer! We stopped for lunch after checking out Garden of the Gods and before our trek (via car) up to Pikes Peak. I really liked the IPA craft beer. I ended up getting an interesting tomato soup that was doctored up with some spice. My hubby got a hamburger. We enjoyed our food. We loved the vibe with it being dog friendly and the wide open garage doors for nice weather. read more

We've been walking past OCC brewing for as long as we've been coming to Old Colorado City. Today we had family in town and on a beautiful day, we decided to stop in. We should have kept walking. The service, while friendly, was garbage. Our food took over an hour to arrive. It was all horribly overcooked. Brunch items were cold and stale. Water smelled like it came out of a puddle out back. Beer cups were dirty. Mine had a hair. But hey, the check came quickly and they had a really cool surprise "kitchen appreciation fee" and a charge for mustard. Which wasn't huge, but a charge for a condiment? Won't be back. read more

Second time visiting. Great service both times. The servers are super pleasant to interact with. The food is delicious. Ambiance is laid back. During my most recent visit, I had the Korean-style cheesesteak. It was really good. I got the fries with the dill pickle seasoning - yummy! My friend wished she ordered her fries with the seasoning as well. Last visit, I had the fresh baked cookies. I really enjoyed the texture. I will definitely return in the future. read more

I have been here twice now. Good service, lots of fun beers, and great well well-labeled vegan options. I have had the Bah Mi and the Mushroom Ruben and both were very tasty. I got the peanut slaw with my Bahn Mi which was good but a bit heavy on the sauce. The fries I got were good but a little cold. I liked the mushroom Ruben (they put cashew cheese on it to make it vegan). The mustard sauce and house-made sauerkraut really help to make a simple mushroom sandwich top-notch. read more

I have came here each time I visit the Springs area and love it every time! The atmosphere is lively and fun, service has always been wonderful and the food is wonderful. This time I decided to try the chicken fried duck, and it was phenomenal! However, if you have never had duck before, you should know that duck is greasy, so don't be surprised if it's a bit greasy, but that's normal. The greens were very good too. A little spicy, but I loved it! Overall, this is a fun place to hang out, enjoy great food and have a few beers. Also, if the weather is nice be sure to sit on the roof! read more

We've been wanting to try OCC and just got the chance - and their beers are now on tap! Pale Ale was a good choice for me. Just some bites for us today.

Our waitress was super friendly and service was fast. Perfect place for a mid Friday afternoon. read more

Ambiance is great. Roof top deck is fantastic. Back of the house is not as expected. A food order should not take 50 minutes for a burger, a sandwich and an order of fries (poutine). Our server tried his best but he could tell we were frustrated. Either the staff wasn't scheduled appropriately or there wasn't enough personnel in the back of the house. Regardless wouldn't recommend if you don't have patience. read more

This place is okay, has parking in back--not much though.

Despite being overdressed, we felt comfortable in this restaurant. The dress attire is casual, so wear your favorite hoodie and jeans. The staff is friendly and attentive to serve. For beers, I especially liked their Olde Borador, which is a strong ale. It's malty and sweet. My husband was impressed with their im-PEACH-able offense beer, which is fruity and sour. I ordered Bahn Ma sandwich with chicken and curly fries. Delicious! Warning: it's quite spicy, so tell the waiter to ease up on it if you're not a fan of it. My husband ordered Jamaican Jerk chicken sandwich, and he liked my sandwich better. It wasn't bad at all, it was actually okay. At next time, he will try other dishes or will order the same sandwich as mine. We hope to come back here soon! read more

So I decided to check out OCC. So I have mixed feelings. The menu looks good. Some sandwich's, a couple burgers and some trendy items. ( https://occbrewing.com/home/menu/ ). They are a brewery but are not yet making their own beer, they have a number of "guest" beers. The place is spacious with "garage doors" that open to Colorado Avenue. The lighting and behind the bar look is pretty nice. But it seem they scrimped on tables and seating. The bar stools are the metal stools with no back and a handle in the middle. The tables seemed to be the dinner tables you would see at you basement church dinner with a table cloth over it. There were also a bunch of the plastic folding "event" chairs. I'm hoping this is just temporary as they get going. So I had a UK ESB, it was fine and the staff was pretty friendly. For me, I'll wait till they have their own beers going before making another trip down. But I live pretty far north. If you live nearby check it out Quick update: So it's been confirmed that the tables and stools are temporary/rented and will change. So I'm looking forward to my next visit when they have their own furniture and beers goinng! Cheers! read more
