    You know the feeling. You walk into a place expecting a good beer. You leave thinking about it for days. That's Pure Project. I've written a review before. I'm writing another because places like this don't come around often. The Burj is proof. The first sip hits with rich coffee. Then roasted pistachio. Smooth. Layered. Bold without showing off. It's not just a beer. It's an experience. The kind you compare every other stout to. Then you realize the beer isn't the whole story. Jake welcomes people like they've been friends for years. Brian can talk about beer without talking over you. Tiffany somehow keeps the room moving while making every guest feel like they're the only one there. That's rare. The next visit? Jake remembers your last pour. Brian has a recommendation waiting. Tiffany is already smiling before you reach the bar. You come back again. Jake asks what you've been drinking lately. Brian points you toward something unexpected. Tiffany makes sure your glass never sits empty for long. Another visit. Jake is laughing with regulars. Brian is introducing someone to a new style. Tiffany is making first-time guests feel like longtime members. You start to notice something. Jake isn't pretending to be welcoming. Brian isn't pretending to be passionate. Tiffany isn't pretending to care. It's who they are. The Burj deserves the attention. Coffee. Pistachio. Dark chocolate. Everything balanced. Everything intentional. But Jake elevates the experience. Brian deepens it. Tiffany completes it. That's why people return. Jake makes strangers feel familiar. Brian turns curiosity into appreciation. Tiffany makes hospitality look effortless. One visit becomes two. Two become ten. And every time, Jake is part of the reason. Every time, Brian has something new to share. Every time, Tiffany reminds you why great service matters. The beer is world-class. The people make it unforgettable. Jake. Brian. Tiffany. That's Pure Project.

    I'm baaaaaaccccckkk! OK, wow and wow and wow! Call the cops or maybe a priest as I'm feeling guilty for having so much pleasure. Today I have a sour beer and a little 5 ounce of West Coast IPA. Sublime!

    Vast... The space is huge including a cool patio setup just outside the rollaway warehouse doors. It's a real working brewery but you can tell they try hard to make it look great. Kind, welcoming and knowledgable service, plus some really great beers. I heard there are food trucks when busy otherwise no kitchen.

    Excellent beer and great service. Beautiful space, fun to hang out on a summer afternoon.

    Hands down, the most balanced hazy's in town. So many other options to choose from, but I'm a fan of hazy's. If there is one brewery you need to visit in San Diego, make sure it's Pure Project.

    Pure Project is one of my favorite breweries in all of San Diego county. Whenever I'm in the mood for a brewski, this is my #1 choice. Their dark beers are always on point. I've never had a stout I didn't like. One of my personal favorites is milagro on nitro. There's plenty of seating- inside and out. They're prepared for cold winter nights with heaters. Want to sit inside? Plenty of seats by the bar, regular tables for 4, even a few couches....you'll find what works for you. Now, this brewery has set the standard for dogs friendly! Yes, breweries are dog friendly, but just because they let dogs in doesn't really mean they're dog friendly. I've started calling them dog tolerant. Pure is 100% dog friendly. Need a dog water bowl? No problem. Treats? Sure- there's a big dog treat container at the counter (and I think another location too). 5 stars for Pure! See you in 2026!

    Decided to check out this brewery after tasting one of their beers at a local restaurant, and it was definitely worth the trip. It's a quaint place located in a business park. Parking was easy which was great, especially on a Saturday afternoon. Outside the brewery by the entrance, there's outdoor seating (benches & umbrellas) and a food vendor. We walked in and sat at the bar. There were lots of seating areas in the brewery as well. One of the bartenders, Jake, was absolutely awesome! He gave us some tips on what to order and he was patient and very helpful in answering our questions. It was a great menu with many types of drinks to choose from. We ordered a flight which was a great deal, (5) 5oz beers for the price of 4. We picked the Cherry Limeade (hard seltzer), the Tropical Mist, Brass Bell, Mango Bramble (hard smoothie), and the Uncovered Roots. After our flight, we ended with our "dessert", the Spiced Apple Slush and the Corylus. There wasn't a drink we didn't like. Each drink we tried was either crisp, refreshing or smooth, all with great flavor. Not normally a beer drinker myself, these beers and hard seltzers/ciders were off the hook! So much so, we bought some to take home and for gifting. Overall, it was a great experience. The employees were friendly, personable and helpful. Even some of the patrons that we met there were equally friendly. This place has a great vibe and we'll definitely be back!

    Always great to visit Pure Project and the Vista location provides the added convenience of great food trucks. This is a good spot to meet with friends, enjoy some good vibes, good service, and great tasting brews. This has been my go to place for some good Stout options. We're sure to be back soon.

    I really enjoy coming to this hidden location in an industrial section of Vista. On my last visit, I met about 10 friends after attending an outdoor concert. It was perfect. They have long picnic tables set up so we all could fit and sit together. They have quite a few different seating areas both inside and outside to accommodate whatever you may need. When we arrived, the sun was setting, and the sky was really pretty all around us . We tried seltzers, we tried stouts, hazy's and a few other things. They are very generous, informed and patient as they let you taste the various options before making your choice. I like to do their tasting board when I come, because I always discover something new. Everyone who I have brought here is always pleasantly surprised by the location and happy with the selection.

    I love all places that are pet friendly!

    This was the last location we got to visit & my new favorite location!! Customer service was amazing! Place is so clean and I love all the plants! Lots of merch and this day didn't have a food truck and closed early for a private event but we will be back! Love, love & LOVE!

    Lychee wanted some
    Lisa W.

    Love coming here. The beers are simply just delicious and well made. It's our favorite brewery. They have something for everybody. I love that they have a hard seltzer option, their smoothie series and their murkshakes. Big brewery with plenty of seating and outdoor seating with a food truck!

    Beer flight. Sooo many options available!
    Krystal R.

    I'm not a beer drinker, but they have some fruity tasting beers! This place has A LOT of seating area! Both inside and outside. I'm not sure if the Woodfield pizza is there all the time, but there was woodfire pizza available for purchase. About 20$/pizza.. They also had snacks inside for purchase. Pet friendly. And the service was fast and friendly.

    A lil' stout and some haze
    Heihachiro K.

    Always had a passion for Pure. We've been fans since day one back on Miramar Rd. Miss the old days of knocking back some murk inside that little tap room. We are elated Pure has expanded to Carlsbad and Vista these past few years. Always good beer and always a good time. Cheers!

Comfortable and casual. Many sign posted about disruptive kids and pets. It was early on a Monday evening, so I don't know if they enforce or not. The fish and chips were cooked very well. The flavor was good on the fish. The fries were crispy. My only disappointment is they served the malt vinegar on small portion cups instead of the shaker bottle. Hard to get an even spread. The pazole and the Cole slaw were both very good. Our server was attentive and friendly. They have water stations - coolers with cups stacked nearby. To me, the water tasted old ( I know -makes no sense). It had a very earthy note to it like the coolers weren't adequately cleaned. Would definitely go back!!

    Celebrated our mother's day here, because they were just doing regular brunch and not charging…read moreextreme prices. I made a reservation about 2 weeks out with no issue. Street parking only, but wasn't too hard to find a spot as we came early. The restaurant is very nice and looks new. There is two dining rooms one towards the front near the bar area, and another in the back. We sent in the front for brunch. The menu had a good variety of items, and we decided to go with the chilaquiles and the shrimp and grits. I love Shrimp and grits, and it's not too common on menu's so i has to try it. The dish had pork belly instead of bacon, and shrimp. THe texture of the grits was very good, not too runny or too thick. The shrimp seemed good quality and not chewy or rubbery. I really enjoyed the dish and would order it again. The chilaquiles were an interesting take, not at all what you're normal chilaquiles would be. They come with lamb but we substituted with chicken. They were covered with a type of hollandaise sauce and we both thought they were good. I also ordered a breakfast shot that had bourbon in it, and a piece of pork belly on the top, and a shot of orange juice. It was pretty strong and very good. I would definitely order this one again, and the piece of pork belly they added on top was perfect. I can't wait to go back to check out their happy hour, it looks like they have an awesome menu, and they even do it on the weekends.

My husband and I were consistently blown away throughout the meal. We had a few cocktails (one was the verde) and all of them were exceptionally crafted, balanced and well priced. What really shocked us was how good the food was. These were chef driven dishes with phenomenal flavor profiles and execution. Genuinely was blown away by the charred broccoli and the cabbage dish. I would venture to say I preferred the broccoli dish here than to somewhere like Campfire. On that final note, I'll say we typically go to State street or Encinitas/Solana/Oceanside for our date nights but please, give this place a try. They were so so good! 10/10 from two vegetarians
