Sequoia Brewing - American Near Me - Fresno, California

On our way back home to Oceanside from Napa we stopped to have lunch in Fresno and decided to check this place out. They had ample parking in the back which was nice since they are on a busy street. I loved the look of the restaurant, which as the name suggests, is forest themed. The beers were very tasty and my husband and I both enjoyed the burgers we had. read more

Half dome? China Peak? I.P.A.? Sometimes it is just too hard to choose. Good thing they will all rock your socks off. Food is overpriced but decent. For you beer lovers-become a "logger." Best investment you'll ever make. Serio. read more

Always great! Awesome and genuine people. One of the costumers paid for my moms and my sister order, so unexpected. I love the vibe here and the food is a plus read more

Sorry, guys... I haven't even looked at the rest of the menu because I'm too busy guzzling ONLY THE BEST ROOT BEER FLOATS EVER. I think once I had the fish tacos, and perhaps the fried artichoke appetizer because I love artichokes, but I love the root beer floats more and will travel to Sequoia BrewCo to pound down at least four of those suckers in one sitting. The waitstaff probably think I'm disgusting but I don't think I'm any worse than the guys at the bar-- nobody would bat an eyelash if they drank four beers in a row, so what's wrong with root beer floats? Said floats are made with homebrewed root beer, which is not too sweet and marvellously spicy, and also their own vanilla ice cream, which is also not too sweet and has delightful ice chips in it. There are a lot of reasons to go to Fresno, which is an awesome place and totally undeserving of all negative hype (although it does get wicked hot in the summer, which kind of sucks), but the root beer floats are compelling enough for me. What can I say; I'm easy. EDIT: Tried the Oriental Chicken Salad for lunch, and was wholly unimpressed by the tangle of mostly iceberg lettuce and wonton crunchies, which led to me being slightly put off by the name-- is it even politically correct to refer to anything as "Oriental"? I am docking them a star for their food, but my feelings about the floats remain. read more

We and our family have been longtime patrons of this establishment. I had even recommended this place to friends, but not anymore. We long moved away, but upon a recent visit, we were treated like trash. The owner (I only assume the owner because no employee would behave the way this one did) made rude comments because I was looking for a family member at the bar instead of waiting to be seated. I have never been harrassed by other staff when I have done this on previous occassions. It used to seem like a family friendly, casual place. Like I said, we had been going there for years before that. After this, we had been accused of making a mess and not leaving a tip, except we did leave an almost 100% tip because our waiter was nice. This owner needs to go down. Please stay as far away from here as you can, there are many better places to spend your money. read more

Fun patio with heater! Beers on point. I'm a stout fan, but the orange blossom was incredibly refreshing. All local brews and a full dinner menu. My husband loves the pasta. It's a very generous portion. I got the half French dip and tortilla soup. It was amazing and the perfect size. Crowd was a little older but still fun while watching the play offs. Will definitely return. read more

Great lunch spot. Food was prompt, warm and delicious. Sitting on a stage so it begs to return for live music on the weekends. Will be back! read more

First of all, what's with the bleach smell? It hits me every time I walk in there and I wonder to myself what's being cleaned. The beers are tasty and decently priced. China Peak Pilsner is my favorite. The food is a hit or miss. Recommend the small pizzas, salads, appetizers. The nachos were ehh though. I've always had great service, but the live bands leave a little to be desired. read more

Better than your average brewery/restaurant. I walked in expecting a wide range of craft beers on tap, and slightly overpriced pub faire. Sequoia appeared to meet my expectations, and I settled in for good beer and mediocre food. But that's where things got interesting: (+) We ordered an appetizer combo plate and I have to say, it was possibly the best bunch of poppers, pot skins, garlic fries, chz sticks and beer battered fish that I have ever had. This is the kind of food that when made well, really is fun to eat with various types of craft beers. (+) We tried several tasty beers that varied in color and flavor, and the meal was a fun time for us hardcore beer aficionados (+) The service was great and they even let as make a substitution on the combo appetizer plate. (-) None, but I've only had one meal here. I would love to go back to see if this place could win me over for 5 stars THE BOTTOM LINE: (+) As far as these brewery restaurants go, this is the best that I've been to yet. read more

My family and just happened to stumble upon this place searching for a brew pub in the Fresno area. It was nearly empty when we walked in, so the service was great and friendly. A great sampling of beer, everything from light pilsner to delicious hoppy IPA's. The fish and chips were beer battered to perfection and were huge! Overall decor is what I would expect in Fresno, rural fun with lots of animals on the wall. Great place to check out! read more

The best item on the menu is the Herb Crusted Fried Artichoke Hearts. These are the best artichoke hearts I've ever had... ever! The batter is light and generously seasoned. I found myself picking up the fried crumbs after I'd already devoured the heaping basket of artichoke hearts. Overall, SBC has typical brewery food (burgers, fried stuff, etc) and the beer's not bad either. The atmosphere is lively, especially around happy hour. But, let's be real. The one thing that could bring me back is the artichoke hearts. Man, I'm drooling just thinking about 'em. read more

They opened up their side room for our big party, had 3-4 people helping us (only 10 person party). The service was great, they cranked up the AC at our request in the room we were in. The food was also very good; almost everyone in our party left happy and satisfied. If you go on the right nights there are some live music depending the location, all you can eat ribs on Wed nights, and all you can eat fish and chips Thur nights. I would recommend this place! They also turned on the Giants game at our request! read more

Food was ok... came out of sequence ... well ok I understand transition of service no one said anything though ... new server was abrasive and probably nervous as hands shook... we were tired ... puppy hungry ... his food never came out lol ...not a huge battle... manager left dismissive to us or assured he would take care of it internally... we didn't ask for a hand out or help on the bill just take off what we didn't get in time...not sure what to think ... left 18% anyways# pplofbeautifulcolorandclass#hopingitsnotlersonal read more

Sequoia has the coldest beers in Fresno, I'm pretty sure. They brew their own beers and have detailed descriptions on their menu, including the alcohol content. My favorite is the half dome, which is half Hefeweizen and half pale ale. If you're a newbie, you might want to try the sampler, which is a tiny glass of each beer. I have to say, there service isn't always top notch. But the food's good and the atmosphere is lively, with a band most Saturday nights and lots of happy hours and specials. read more

This place is awesome. I wish I lived in Fresno. I just had the Buckeye Flat Frisco Burger and a Sequoia Pale Ale. read more

Always a fun environment. The attitude of the employees is great- they seem to be having fun at their job. The service from the bartenders is awesome. They give great recommendations and take their time explaining things. Food is also tasty. Highly recommend. read more

My family and close friends, have been visiting this location for over 10 years, in all that time, I had yet to meet the owner Michelle. My sister had reserved the room for her Annual Anniversary lunch. When I approached the desk I was not greeted nicely and I said I was here for the Reservation under my sisters name, but before I could say that I was not her and that I was here to see if they could put the surprise cake in freezer so I could run into the room to decorate. She started telling me about Cake fee for cutting the cake and that the cake was not noted on reservation and was angry at who ever I spoke to because they didn't tell me the price and I was fine paying the fee. No problem...... I was just taken back by her tone directed at me. and then she took the cake from my hands and set it down at the desk where everyone walks up to when checking in, and walked away from me. I quickly asked another server to see if he could move the cake from the area as my sister was walking up to the restaurant. I then quickly went to the room and... to see if I could start over with this person I thought was a server and I said, I'm sorry could we start over, we come here all the time and it seems like we got off on the wrong foot and put out my hand to shake this person's hand. She says well I am the owner and I haven't ever seen you in here before and I said oh nice to meet you, and then as I was trying to tell her about all the events we have at her restaurant she again walked away. Then my husband stepped in and tried to smooth down the situation with her as well. She left and didn't return which is great news because, at this point I was upset trying to decorate as quickly as I could, because I didn't not want this salty encounter to ruin my sister and her husbands day not to mention the family that was attending. The waitress was great and Bartender as usual were awesome as all of the Staff are!! When they brought out the cake I clearly saw that she didn't put the ice cream cake in the freezer as I had asked. It quickly melted and was then difficult to serve, but we managed. I again didn't want to upset anyone about why the cake wasn't placed in the freezer. :( and I didn't say anything to our server either, figured it wasn't worth getting more upset over. I Guess Michelle she showed me,,, right .. wrong... Wow!! I'm thinking it's been fortunate for us that in all the years we have celebrated Husbands, Mothers, son's, daughters and my Birthday's, Anniversary's, and Tower District Car Show's were all spent at this establishment we had never met the owner. Since meeting the owner and being treated as if my patronage doesn't matter nor does my families special occasion rituals, and that being a human being or treated like one doesn't matter to her, I will no longer visit this establishment for any reason. Very disappointed. Now on the search for a new special place for me, family and friends. read more

I LOVE sequoia! Drink local, eat local, live local. Their on tap beer selection is second to none and their food is fresh and incredible every time. Last time I came on date night with my sweetie and we both had two beers and more than enough food for around 60 bucks. Wasn't bad and the portions were substantial. Come for the beer...stay for the friendly service and delicious food. read more

The waiter was terrible, he didn't keep up with out drinks, when I needed a refill I always needed to call him over. Messed up our checks and didn't apologize. The food was good but the service wasn't the best. His name is tony. read more

I want to review it better but I can't. I wasn't impressed with the service. Maybe I was in more of a eat and go attitude then the typical customer. The fried pickles were over breaded. The salmon blt I had was charred. The beer was good. That almost made me add another star. But they wont fill growlers with the double IPA. "due to the alcohol precedent." I am not a lawyer but I don' think so... So I just couldn't do 3 stars. Maybe I expect more being from the bay proper and having seen all the competition in this category of brewery and brew pubs. read more

This was at the Olive location sorry North Fresno. Tonight I took my son and his two friends to have some rootbeers at sequoia brewery. We were told to sit at the long narrow table in front of the bar. There were people sitting in the opposite side of the table eating. I didn't really want to sit there since there were people eating and felt like we were sitting too close. I asked if it would be okay to sit at a table as that be easier for the boys to talk and less intrusive to the other people sitting at the narrow table. We were told that the tables are just for those eating and that we need to sit at the crowded long table. So we did. As my son and his friends sat down the lady they were sitting in front of had this horrifying look on her face. I thought I was going to have to help her pop her eyes back into her head. Geez have you ever seen a couple Mexicans and African American young men before. While I understand that the restaurant has no control over other patrons they do have control over the way they treat their customers. We sat there for anywhere between 5-10 minutes and nobody came to take an order. So I walked out with the boys. I will never eat there again, and they also lost 3 future customers. My family as well will never eat there again. I live in the tower and have been to sequoia brewery many times. Never again I was so uncomfortable and disgusted. read more

Good beers, good food, good music, good vibe. I've gone multiple times to hear bands and hang out with friends. This is also my favorite local place to watch football on a Sunday afternoon. Plenty of tvs and not a bad seat in the house. Consistently good service and always clean atmosphere as well. The only minus I can point out is the bathrooms (one room bathroom, not cool when they're busy) read more

I've been there before for the beer, and had a couple appetizers and it was good. Last night we just went for dinner. Maybe because it was a Sunday they were off their game or something, but it was so bad I felt I needed to share. My moms ham sandwich was literally bread, meat, and cheese. She had to track down our waiter to ask for condiments. My 8 year old makes better sandwiches!! My wife ordered a philly cheese steak sandwich. The "steak" was cream of meat mixed with barely cooked onions and way too much cheese. It was almost inedible! My Chinese chicken salad was super heavy on the sauce, so much that I never put the dressing on. I know, don't go to an American grill and order Chinese !! Service was decent, but I'm sure they knew how crap their food was Thank you for your response. 1. Yes, I should have said something but it was late and I was tired. I still had an hour drive home 2. My tip reflects how much I appreciate good service, because that is what we got. We will come again, it's a great atmosphere and great beer. I should have ordered one of your tasty burgers instead of a salad. I upped the review because you cared enough to respond. Thank you read more

I came here last yr while visiting fresno and back here again the beers are on point and the staff is friendly dont believe the ugly reviews if you read them this is a great local brew house read more

Sequoia Brewing - American Near Me - Fresno, California

Although the beer was good and the food was decent, the service was deplorable. Not once did our server even check to see if things came out okay, if I wanted another drink, or ask us if there was anything else. Don't expect to be taken care of when you come in here. read more

We stopped here because my husband is a local brew junky! We ended up sharing some dinner- chips and salsa and an Asian salad-- oh my gosh! Delish! We were pleasantly surprised when green salsa came out and the salad was SO GOOD!! Beers were good too since he could get a flight. Half dome was his fave! read more

I've been going to the Sequoia North and Tower locations for 12+ years now. I made the change to the North location after personally witnessing numerous customer encounters with the owner's wife. She is the most rude human being that I've ever run across on a regular basis. And her managing the place had brought the place down over time so I made the switch to where she wasn't, Sequoia North. Very wise move... Saturday early evening, we had an event in the Tower area so we decided to give the Tower location a try. Huge mistake! We decided to stay only after not seeing the owner's wife working. (Yes. It IS that bad. Just look thru the other Yelp reviews. This is NOT an isolated incident). We sat outside on the patio. Everything going fine. First round of drinks being enjoyed while we waited on food to arrive. Waitress asked my buddy if he wanted another beer and when he said yes she grabbed his mug that still had a drink or two left in it. He told her he'd like to finish the beer first. Perfectly reasonable, with a perfectly pleasure tone to the request. Several minutes later, we have the owner's wife come storming out with obvious attitude and the entire table was looking at each other like WTH? She then proceeded to yell at anyone and everyone at the table for so long it was incredible. Truly unbelievable. She threw out things like "I'm the owner and I'll do what I want", "I don't know any of you" (we are regulars), "We don't want your business", and heaven help you if you tried to explain anything to her!! She just wanted to yell. Never, ever, ever, going to go back to ANY Sequoia Brewing location. Life's too short to deal with craziness like that... She single handedly got rid of a very large group of regular customers, as each and everyone of us has seen this type of behavior from her before but after having it directed at us like that, well, no thank you!! read more

Sat at the bar, great friendly service. The session saison was killer, grassy fresh and clean. The pale was also great, nice balance. read more

This was a great place to meet friends, enjoy a beer sampling or a just sip on cold favorite! I had a spicy shrimp taco and fried pickles for the table, all were tasty and the service was both knowledgeable and prompt! Our waiter even remembered what beer I ordered when I forgot the name, but wanted another (don't judge! LOL). Nice atmosphere, good service, cold brews and cool air = a mighty fine place to be! read more

We live in the Tower but seldom eat in this area. Tried Sequoia for the playoffs this weekend and were pleasantly surprised! Great game day atmosphere with some yummy snacks. We did not realize they have a bar and not just beer ;) Tried the pretzel bites, green beans, & buffalo bites! Loved the pesto sauce served with the green bean appetizer!!! Tasty and we will certainly try it again for a meal. read more

Been here many times and had to Yelp. Kudos to the Chef and Brew Master. The Prime Rib was the best I've ever had in my 40 something years, every other food item we've ordered is absolutely delicious and very well presented. We drive across town just because I'd the food and fabulous handcrafted beers. 5 plus Stars... Only drawback are the bathrooms. read more

Sequoia Brewing - Half Dome and Blossom trail handcrafted brew - American Near Me - Fresno, California

Wanted to hit a brewery on our way up to Yosemite last Friday. Not too many open early so we ended settling on Sequoia since they opened early and have food. It a big place with a nice vibe, friendly staff, a big beer list. My friends and I went all out and sampled all 18 beers. Of them, I only really liked a handful but hey - taste is subjective. We ordered some appetizers to share that were OK but nothing to write home about. Wouldn't recommend the pretzel bites but the sampler was your standard food. Worth a try if your in the area and want a brewery with food. read more

Sequoia Brewing - We'd like to sample all of the beer, please. - American Near Me - Fresno, California

Came from out of town and had a great selection of locally brewed beers, an excellent pulled pork sandwich and the staff were very helpful with samples. Music was good but a bit too loud. read more

I would give this place 0 stars if I could! The food was fine, but far too greasy. The beer was good, but I will NEVER return because of the way I saw the owner treat her workers! The amount of disrespect is unfathomable. I will not be giving this company any more of my time. I have been going to Sequoia for years and I've finally had it with this. It truly amazes me that she is still allowed to own a restaurant. I have seen numerous heath code violations, I had ignored in the past, but I will be reporting them to a health and safety office once I am done here. Please DO NOT even bother going into this restaurant. They do not deserve your time or money!!! read more

Great beer and steak nachos! We had the sampler and settled on a pint of their Amber ale. We've been here many times, this is one of the great places in the Tower District to just chill out and sip one of their wonderful brews. read more

Came here last week with my friend. Ordered a mixed drink and chicken tacos. Order took forever to come out and when they did my food was dead cold and my mixed drink was disgusting and disappointing to say the least. Ordered a different drink, the Irish Coffee, wasn't at all what I expected and I don't know hot coffee and whiskey to me just was not appealing. Waiter barely came around, had to flag the other waiters get water, and it STILL took 15 min to even get that. Then when it was time to pay they kept the the change as if that was supposed to be there tip. I just decided to leave after that because the guy who took our tab was nowhere in site even though I waited a 10 extra minutes to get my change. Have no desire going here again on a night out. read more
