Every Texas city needs a brewery as a space for adults to hang out in the evenings. Midland has Tall City, Lubbock has Good Line and Two Docs, and Amarillo has Pondaseta. Located on the west side of Amarillo, Pondaseta's black brick building is sharp and modern for an older city like the Yellow City. Inside, there are two large spaces. One is where they brew all of their beers and it also functions as a space for music and guests. The main space is their taproom, where the back wall features a row of taps with all of their in house beers. There was a duo playing music in the other room, and there was a few other groups there. We played a very competitive game of Go Fish and really enjoyed the space there. For my first beer, I ordered the Mind The Gap, which was a bitter in an English pub style. I love a malty beer and it reminded me of some of my favorites. My girlfriend got a Pecan Porter that she really liked. It was dark and roasty. My next beer was their Tea Pilsner, which I never knew was a style of beer. This one was infused with hibiscus tea and I thought it was good. My girlfriend got their cherry lime seltzer. Not for me, but she enjoyed it. I will definitely be back the next time I am in Amarillo based on how great the drinks were. Thank you, Pondaseta.

i visited Pondaseta after visiting the other three breweries while i was in town and i wish i would've stopped here first. both Lucas and Hannah were very friendly (and so was the customer Jacob). i sampled three different beers and they were all great. i would definitely recommend coming here and if i'm ever back in town this will be my first and only stop. keep up the great vibes read more

Love this place! Stopped by on our way through 2nd time in 2 years. Very accommodating and the beer is delicious! Set up a table and chairs for us out of the sun, for the dogs. Cottonfield Conspiracy and Sunrise Amber were both great! Carne asada fries and cheese curds hit the spot! We'll be back!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Great beer, good service and great tacos. Can you ask for better from a small place? Will definitely be back.

This place was fun and the staff was helpful. Love the outdoor seating area and the Korean Pork tacos were amazing.

Great Pizza and Craft Beers, the building is an old train station and it's really cool read more

Pondaseta Brewing Company - Our waitress Holly was amazing ! - Breweries Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Pondaseta Brewing is my 271st brewery. I'm closing in on 300! I am only in Amarillo until tomorrow morning, no not by morning, until morning. I tried a couple of Pondaseta beers at my hotel last night when I got in. Those were the Fast & Hazy and the Sunrise Amber. SWPFTD definitely would enjoy the Sunrise Amber. PB is separated into two different spaces, the main bar area and another space with extra tables which hosts live music. The nice part is they are actually separated by a door so if you want it a little quieter you ca. sit in the main bar area away from the band. I started my flight with Enter The Dragon which seemed appropriate just from the name. This was a German Pilsner with a nice bit of crackery/bready flavor to it. Not bad at all. The Sky Pie pecan porter had some serious pecan aroma to it. At first taste the flavor didn't live up to the aroma but towards the back of the tonque...WHAM, there was the pecan flavor and it lasted too. It really smells like pecan pie but isn't as sweet on the tongue which I like. I like this one. Let The People Dance IPA was very light on bitterness and had a decent little fruity flavor that flirted with my flippin' tastebuds in a fascinating way. Ok I'll stop... Raspberry Gladys Brings The Boys To The Yard. Man, that name is a mouthful. Gladys is a milkshake IPA presumably with raspberries. Yep, definitely with raspberries. Raspberry on the nose a well as on the tongue. I'm sad to say I didn't love this one. The raspberry flavors and all just didn't work for me. YMMV. I wanted to try the Rye barrel aged Castle Black but unfortunately it was only available in a bottle. I'm deciding if I want to buy one and take it back to my hotel for later. I'll update you on that. I did decide to try the Against The Currant Gose which I actually really liked. I also added on Viking Vacation, an imperial IPA. This was good. Nicely balanced and very easy to drink. This could be dangerous although not as dangerous as Sky Pie. Pondaseta Brewing is brewing up some good beer. Glad I could stop in! If anyone is a glutton for punishment, please, follow my brewery, and distillery, reviews from across the U.S. and beyond! https://www.yelp.com/collection/-8iscFkpiiCI563-FDfwGg and if anyone is wondering who SWPFTD is you will have to check out my review of Black Market Brewing Co in Temecula, CA to understand. Yes, you will need to read into it a little to get the joke but I have confidence in you! I hope my confidence is not misplaced. read more

Great service and friendly staff. I liked the variety of craft beers and drinks they had to offer. The server offered us a few samples before choosing our drinks. He also took our food orders and was always checking on us to ensure we had our glasses full. Tacos had great flavor, and I liked the chips and salsa, although it could have more kick to it. I wish I had come in earlier to try the happy hour menu. I will definitely come back whenever I come to visit town. read more

I wanted to drink some craft beer at home so I swung by Pondaseta to get my growlers filled up this weekend. The only snag was that when I got there, the pricing for growlers didn't make much sense. I'll explain. I wanted to try the Extra Special Blackburn, and a 32oz growler fill of that costs $14. That's on the pricey side for a fill up. But where it really gets odd is that, the cost of a 16oz pint is only $6. So, it would be cheaper for me to buy two pints, pour them into my growler and then head on my way. I pointed this out to the employee and his response was "we should probably be charging $7 a pint". Wow, great answer, just charge people more to justify the growler price. Apologies in advance if I cause the price of the ESB to increase. Now, to be fair, I've been to Pondaseta before and it is a great spot to hang out and drink beer. I'm just flummoxed by how their growlers are priced. How can it be more expensive to get beer to go in a growler? If I get my beer to go, I'm not taking up any space in the business, they don't have to wash by glass, I'm not using their bathroom. Are they trying to incentivize people to sit down and stay? I guess it's possible. But this is the only pricing model I've seen like this. I've never come across a brewery that charges less for beer on site than to carry it out in a growler. Anyway, actually physically sitting and drinking at Pondaseta is great. And I'll be back at some point to do that. But I will not try to fill up my growlers here again (unless something changes). read more

We loved this place! We had. Great time- stopped in the with family and very windy day! They had lots of seating, the food truck had awesome Korean fries. The beers were tasty and staff was friendly! read more

The food, service, and ambience were all top-notch. I ordered the fried pickles, the pimento patty melt, and the sangria. Let me tell you--the patty melt was absolutely to die for. The sangria was the perfect complement to an already amazing meal. I'd give it a 10/10 and would happily leap off a cliff just for another bite of that masterpiece! read more

Stopped in at Pondaseta for a beer and hopefully some pub grub. They don't have their own in house kitchen, per se, but they do have a food truck which offers a pretty good selection of pub grub choices. I opted for the BLTA (Bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado) sandwich on marble rye. Boy was it good and the additional "A" made it that much better. Bacon was plentiful and really crispy. Oh, the beers were good too! :) Nice selection and a bartender with a personality who was engaging. read more

Great service, cool place. Ready for stouts to be brewed. Good variety of beers/ales.

Passing through on our way back home to AZ.. this was a 5 star stop! Good food, great beer! I recommend a flight, but the hazy was my fave! Our server was friendly and helpful and checking in just often enough! We enjoyed the vibes outside chilling at the picnic tables, lucky enough to have a cloudy but not rainy day! Note that you get your own water from a cooler which leads me to the only bad thing.. that water tastes BAD! Bleh. Like hose water. read more

Great beer, great snacks, great service. We stopped in on our way from Colorado to Texas and really enjoyed the beer, chips & queso, and friendly service. There was a good selection of beers, and the IPA was amazing! Give this place a stop next time you're close by. read more

They have live music it's nice to drink a beer on the patio and enjoy with friends and family.. No domestic beers or liquor unfortunately so if you aren't a big beer person you won't go for the beer haha. read more

Was nearby and decided to stop by and I am glad I did. They have been here 5 years. Second location coming soon. I drank some beers (flights). Really liked the Destroyer, Let the People Dance (gold winner), Skypie (wow pie in the mouth), and Sunrise. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive (thanks Lauren). They have a food truck (huge menu). They have plenty of room (inside and outside) for large groups. Dog friendly outside. Check out social media on events. I would highly recommend drinking and eating here. If nearby give it a try. Enjoy!! read more

Favorite favorite place to go for sangria or fresh brewed beer. Everyone is super nice, they really get to know the customers. It's always very clean They have a food truck on site with everything made to order. I really like the fact that they shoot their media on site and it's really fun to watch.

Don't go if you want food. We waited 2 hours for food, and we were still 4 tickets from getting our food cooked. By the way, there were only 4 items on the menu. This could be a great place, but they need to get their act together. read more

I used to travel through Amarillo a lot while on road trips and I'm kicking myself for not slowing down more often when I went through because there were attractions I missed and now I'm not all that close to the small city. Not delving into their beer culture was part of this situation I found myself in. There isn't much of a craft beer scene here compared to Colorado or even in central or southern Texas for that matter but there are a few here and Pondaseta is one of them. I managed to get one beer from this brewery and I really enjoyed it a lot! Sky Pie was the name of the pecan porter I had here. It's sort of like dessert in a glass like some porters are. Maybe this one is a bit lighter than an actual Pecan Pie but it's enjoyable all the same. Rich, decadent and nutty... it was amazing! It was a bit out of season when I had this beer... I like my porters in stormy and gloomy weather but the day I had it was warm and cheerful but that didn't really matter because the Sky Pie was so fun to drink it didn't matter if we enjoyed on a warm, sunny day! read more

We really had a great first time experience! Happy hour is SUN-THUR 3pm-6pm. I liked their pineapple cider and my husbands favorite beer he tried was the trash panda. The food was great too! We had the green chile hangover burger and the Korean fries. Both were really great. Best burger we've had in a long time. read more

Atmosphere is great for hanging out with family or friends - plenty of seats in the tap room and outside. We didn't eat the food but saw plenty of others, and it looked amazing! If we ever come back to Amarillo, we will definitely stop by for another drink! read more

Great place to come if you are looking for a brew. Does not look like they make a lot of brews when it come to quantity but it is good beer. I guess of the places I have gone to in Amarillo this is the best. They took an old gas station and made it great place to meet up with friends, have some beers and snack food. Talking to one of the brewers, he said they just opened in November and we're doing good. I like the atmosphere here. read more

Okay, so good location right off a main street. I saw a post on fb that they serve food, plus the booze which I didnt know. So I gave up my usual trip to Bubbas33 to try this spot. We arrived before 9pm, after I closed at work. Was not sure what to do as a first timer. So We headed to the bar. We actually ordered pondeseta premium. And then asked how to order food. Welp, it was a food truck right outside. I love food trucks so I was ok with still eating but food stops at 9. They have an area for karaoke, patio and inside brewery sitting. We sat in bar since the locals did not have the vocals. Lol. I cant sing either. Anyway- i got a burger and fries, so disappointed cause i think Ihop couldve done better and it was almost 15$. My husband got asada tacos, another 15$ for 3 tiny tacos with more onion than meat. The white queso was decent. We ordered another round and I got the 1-40 and my husband wanted another premium but somehow that was confusing to the waitress. So we both got 1-40 which it was good. The bar lacked a vibe. No music inside just listening to people speak. Sadly, I wont return unless I am just drinking. And maybe bring a baby speaker. Idk. The staff was super nice. read more

We stopped at this brewery on our way to a cabin by the canyon. We were disappointed to see that we could not take our dogs in, but we were ready to get to our cabin anyhow so we just opted for beers to go. They offer a great selection. We thought they were a little on the pricey side, but the beers were delicious. And perfect to relax with while taking the canyon views. read more
