I have been to this taproom and eatery a few times now, it is a great dog-friendly, big group friendly casual dining spot in the heart of Mammoth. The food is decent, it's never going to absolutely wow you but it will be sufficient and well priced. This time I tried their mac and cheese, it was cheesy and I liked the type of pasta noodle they used that allowed it to get extra crispy and crunchy with the spiral texture, however it was a little dry and on the blander side for mac! The ordering system is great and straightforward, you order and pay on your phone and then food appears straight to your table! Genius, convenient and perfect for groups as there's no splitting the bill awkwardly at the end. And the dog friendliness is so clutch, our pups always enjoy the sunshine and rest. Really great spot I would recommend in a sea of terrible touristy Mammoth dining establishments. read more

The EATery - mac and cheese - Gastropubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

The eatery shares a space with mammoth brewing. They have plenty of outside seating, corn hole, and have summer concerts on weekends. When you are seated, you order from a QR code. We ordered the braised beef short rib dinner and the damn good burger and fries. Both meals were very good. The hamburger patty was so fresh with the arugula. Highly recommend. The negatives for me were the prices and that they took all the tacos off the menu. read more

Host said he had no room for our party of 4, so he adds us to the waiting list. I went upstairs to use the restroom. I see as I am leaving the restroom there is plenty of room in one of the large community tables, I looked closer 6 stools in the middle of the table. As I am walking back to ask the host if we could take that area the host passes by me with a party of three guys who arrived after us (maybe his buddies). I stopped him as he walks back by me and say "wait we were ahead of them". He replies "I didn't think you would fit there they are a party of three" . Well your host lost our business. Thanks for your quick reply Theresa. Yes I saw it the way I saw it. Your host could use some training. read more

We ended up here because we were seriously hangry after driving from SoCal and hiking Rainbow Falls. It's one of those spots where the only service you get is them bringing food to your table--everything else is self-order and self-serve. The water was room temperature, and when we asked for ice, the bartenders were pretty stingy with it. The onion rings, though, were a hit--crispy and served with a variety of sauces. Bonus points for not charging extra for more sauces! The mac and cheese was a bit of a letdown. The bacon on top wasn't cooked, and the cheese was just sitting there on top, not mixed in, making the noodles dry. The spicy meatballs were tasty, but the side of garlic bread was a different story--clearly burnt on the bottom. It was a quick bite, but honestly, I probably wouldn't come back. read more

A brewery and eatery with a classic selection and good vibes all around. They have a downstairs area just for drinking with some fun games to play with your group while you wait for a table to eat upstairs. It was around a 45 min wait at 6pm on a Saturday but goes by pretty quick with a pitcher and good company. Onto the food, I got a Hot Chicken Sandwich which is one of my favorite foods, but my expectations weren't too high if I'm being completely honest. But was pleasantly surprised with how good it was. Classic assembly of pickles, slaw, on a roll, with a fat slab of chicken that wasn't dry at all, and a really nice medium heat to give it a kick. They also served this horseradish like ranch I believe? With the fries and that was great as well. Awesome place read more

Super delicious the burger is outstanding !! Service friendly & super attentive Great vibe Highly recommend read more

Service was quick and friendly. Whole family loved their food! Overall enjoyable experience!

The hostess was very nice to us. She sat us upstairs and showed us how to order at the table with the QR codes and was very friendly. The beer lady was the exact opposite. She had a very negative attitude when dropping off the beer to us. Her face, body language and attitude towards us in the brief ~30 second interaction was enough to start to ruin the entire visit. We ordered a couple of food items. It was the worst kids grilled cheese I have ever seen or eaten. There was barely any cheese, and the bread was so toasted that it could barely be eaten. It was definitely not able to be eaten by my kids. The waffle fries were hard and the cookie it came with was hard enough to break a table. read more

The food was less than alright for a premium price. Our options were very limited because we were in Mammoth during the fall season. Our kids got expensive hot dogs that seemed microwaved within an inch of their life or perhaps left over from the day before? My husband got a spicy chicken sandwich that was literally chicken tenders in a bun. The beer isn't good enough to give the food a pass. I get that we were here during off peak season, but the food could and should be better. read more

I don't get how this place doesn't have a full five stars. The food was absolutely spectacular! It was my family's first time to mammoth and instead of trying a different place we went here twice! The people working were so welcoming & friendly. The beers we got were the huckleberry sour & elderberry sour. Both were excellent. If I could give this place a 10 I would. We got the bahn mi, the burger, chicken sandwich, and the meatball sandwich. All were phenomenal, but the bahn mi was to die for. Definitely go and try!!! read more

The food here was great and tasty. Especially the mac n cheese, it was very flavorful once you mix it well. I do recommend the drinks as well, they're very nice and refreshing and do have a unique taste to it. There isn't much service to be expected compared to a usual restaurant but they do bring the food to your table. The whole setting of the restaurant was pretty nice and clean as well so it led to a great overall experience. There is a lot of seating so you can bring all your friends as well!! Overall would recommend! read more

nice vibes, fast service. the burger meat was a bit bland and the beer cheese was very beer-y, but I loved the sweet potato tots and the beef birria was very tender. the taco shells were also naan which was pretty interesting read more

Got seated immediately and employees are super friendly! The sweet potato tots are life-altering: perfectly crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. Also got the braised beef plate: the beef was super tasty, but the salad had no dressing and was just a pile of leaves and I did not like the potato thing on the side. Still, the sweet potato tots are a must. read more

Food and beer was awesome had a 30 minute wait (valid it gets busy at night ) . However our upstairs bartender was horrible ! Tried to tell us our IDs were fake and proceeded to ask his coworker if it was fake. Mind you we had been served down stairs and a bartender should know how to check ids especially California ids in California . We then proceeded to sit at our table and watch him chug beers behind the bar so that could explain his rapid stand-off ish behavior. Besides that this place was pretty good sounds like management needs to be better with staffing . read more

Great Food! Great Beer! Great atmosphere and a nice warm welcoming spot after a day on the hill. Went there with my wife and my son (toddler) and we had a great time! Best burger I've had in a long time. My wife really liked the veggie burger, and she can be a tough critic. My son gave his full tummy review (the highest accolade a toddler can give) to the cheese flatbread and onion rings! He also loved the root beer! A great place and I'll come here again the next time we visit! read more

The best damn burger was named correctly. Awesome! Lots of beer and drink choices. Cool looking merch and a chill spot.

Waited over an hour for a burger and fries. The food arrived lukewarm and lacked flavor. Service was very slow, and overall the experience was disappointing. Would not recommend. read more

One of the best macaroni and cheeses I have ever eaten in my life veggie burger was also splendid and the shrimp looks amazing although I did not try it myself highly recommend reasonable pricing and wonderful food read more

Always a solid choice in Mammoth! Was worried about finding a seat because it was storming out, but friendly staff and customers made it easy to find a spot for our group of 5! Food is the usual brewery fare. Had the burger and fries, but they do have a gluten free pizza for those in need of that. Easy to order, get a beer, etc. Stop on in read more

All the components of a great brewery-tv's to watch the game, games for kids, good beer, better than average food, and nice mountain views!

I walked .5 miles (uphill) to order a salad to-go and they said they were too busy for to-go orders. Their website doesn't say anything about not taking to-go orders. It is sometimes tricky in Mammoth Lakes to get food on the weekends, so I checked in advance. It was fairly early in the evening and I only wanted to order a salad! They definitely could do better. read more

Food took over an hour to arrive. I understand it's busy, however over an hour of waiting for fish n chips is ridiculous.

Cool spot, great views, below average food. Ordered the "lil sweeties" which are the sweet potato tots. They came out luke warm / cold, were extra salty and extra sweet. There was also a hair cooked into them. Also ordered the cilantro sour cream chicken tacos. They arrived with a strange corn/cabbage salad and no fork and the sauce was quite literally cilantro and sour cream -- it also arrived luke warm / cold. On the plus side, the chicken was pretty good. Finally, ordered the damn good burger and it wasn't very good and definitely didn't deserve the damn. The cheese wasn't even melted and the meat was fairly gristly. Overall, I won't be returning for the food. read more

This place is also known as the Mammoth Brewing Co. We ended up eating here for both lunch and dinner in one day. We sat outside with our pup for lunch. Ordered the Damn Good Burgers, fries and Gordo Birria Beef Short Rib Tacos. Tacos and fries were good but the burger was not as 'damn good' as we remembered them from past visits. We got a pitcher of beer and a coke. Was a bit turned off by one of the female servers who said that going inside would be faster to get a refill on the coke upon my request for a refill. Thanks a lot for you help (insert sarcasm). For dinner we ate inside on the 2nd level. We ordered the Gordo Birria Beef Short Rib Tacos again, Spicy Sicilian Meatballs, Just fries and the Just Cheese Flatbread. The tacos were good again. The meatballs were probably a tad over cooked and a little dry and the cheese pizza was 'just ok'. It looked like something you would make at home with kids. The fries were not good this time. Tasted old, as if they sat crisped under a heat lap or re-fried because they sat out too long. read more

Come for the beer, not the food...or service. We got the chicken strips, burgers, tacos, and chicken sandwich. The food was decent but overpriced for what it was. Our order came out a few items at a time. The host was very nice as was the person who sat us, however the food was basically thrown onto the table and that server was gone faster than she appeared. I'm not big on places you order yourself at prices you expect to be served, we probably won't be back. Also, everything had sweet pickles, just a heads up. My son accidentally spilled his drink, and they just handed him the towel to clean it up himself. read more

Sweet place first time visiting brews are on point fantastic selection of seasonal selections the flat bread is a an absolute must get and super friendly staff will come again read more

The EATery - Lunch crowd on a Saturday - Gastropubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

This has been a staple for all our Mammoth trips. We love coming here after a day in the slopes in the winter or fishing and exploring during the summer and spring. Located inside Mammoth Brewing, this is hard to miss since it's a corner spot. Parking has never been an issue. Lots of seating inside and upstairs. During the warmer months, the picnic area is nice too. The many times I've been here there are a few items either gone or added to their menu. Not sure if some of it is seasonal. My personal favorite is the Goat Cheese & Black Currant flatbread pizza. I get this every single time. No meat, just goat & gruyere cheese, onions, garlic, dried black currant, topped with arugula & a balsamic glaze. I just drooled typing that. The fries with their house sauce is perfect for starters. The Damn Good burger is delicious (option to make it a veggie burger). We also ordered their Buddha Bundle - falafel wrapped in naan bread with all the trimmings. The Korean steak sandwich was also good. The salads are always a great lighter option. Separate counter for the Eatery, you have to buy your drinks at the bar. Don't forget to try a flight of their brews & btw, the rootbeer is banging... it is so creamy & smooth. Grab a pitcher or two! Good food. Good vibes. Excellent service. Great time. read more

I posted a review that got deleted for Mammoth Brew Co., which apparently is a completely separate business from the kitchen inside the establishment. Go figure. The beer at Mammoth Brew Co is good. Possibly not worth dealing with the crowds and lack of seating, but overall good. The the food here at their kitchen, "The EATery" is garbage. Been 3 times, all 3 times me and my friends left disappointed. Got sick off of the Korean Tacos, the burger is overpriced and painfully average, and the flat bread tasted stale and was also over priced. Highly recommend not going here for food. Go into the town (not the village) instead if you want to find a better, more affordable, and more satisfying meal. This entire establishment sports long wait times (often in freezing cold weather), lack of seating, a loud, crowded environment, and lackluster service. Don't mean to be so negative, but don't make the same mistake we made 3 times now. It doesn't get any better. read more

Excellent beer service and food. We had spicy meatballs and they were delicious. Just the right amount of spice.

I guess I posted my review for the food under the brewery as well. Oh well...food was great; drinks were great...great weather to eat & drink in the garden! read more

Five stars for having a creative menu among many similar American style places in the area. Ordering system is of the QR code variety, and it's a bit annoying to have two separate orders for drinks and food. However, I really appreciated the variety. Fried chicken w griddlecake - the chicken was fried nice and crisp, and I appreciated the greens on the plate. Lots of sweet sauce to flavor everything. The burger got rave reviews, and we all enjoyed our food. The fries we got to share was a big portion and came with chipotle aioli. Special shout-out to the house root beer - I absolutely loved the flavor and it is worth a try! read more

The staff was friendly and helpful, the beer is great. Had a couple sours. The Elderberry and the Huckleberry. For dinner we got the Spicy meatball Sando and the Banh Mi Sando. Boy did we crush them! So good. It's resort town pricing but the portions are solid and overall fantastic. Will definitely be eating here again. read more

For the eclectic and good food, this is the place. Their menu always seems to rotate, so be sure to look at all the selections before deciding. My only complaint is that it seems to get very busy and the line to order can be extremely long. When ordered, however, the food comes promptly. Located in the Mammoth Brewing Company building, there are ways to kill the time while you are waiting in line to order. If you have multiple people in your party, it makes it rather convenient to order a drink. The beers are excellent and, if you have underage folks in your party or just don't drink beer, the root beer is phenomenal. There is seating upstairs, downstairs, and outside. Parking lot next door seems adequate. And its reasonably close to a shuttle stop. Try it. You won't regret. read more

The Eatery in located inside Mammoth Brewing. They have a separate line on the inside first floor to order at. The line was at least 40 mins long and friends that were there the day before said the line was about the same. With only one cashier, I had to take a star off on the rating. Good things followed though. The gentleman taking our order was friendly, had some jokes to entertain us, checked our order to make sure it was correct and made the transaction smooth. I was waiting for my friends to order but he suggested if I had a table already (which we did) to bring the number there as food will start coming out soon. He was right, within a minute or so of sitting down, our food was out nice and hot too. The burger was very tasty. So much better than I excepted as I was thinking it would just be ok. There are self serve water stations in the middle of the upstairs seating area which we were at. To make the meal more enjoyable, they had games. Our table opted for some rounds of connect 4. Service was great and food runners/servers kept checking in to make sure we had everything. There is a private parking lot for patrons of Mammoth Brewing and the Eatery. Just a heads up: The menu is above where you order and as they run out of items, they are marked as sold out if that is the case. It is best to have a backup option of what you want to order. read more

A brewery with classic fare. The beer is solid and they have a surprisingly large amount of vegetarian options. Lots of fried foods, which you'd expect. Have a few kids options. Portions are large too. Service is slow and the guys at the bar aren't terrible friendly. read more

Wait time: Long. We tried going twice. Both times had a long line and wait time. First time, we were starving and ended up leaving 30 minutes in to subway. Second time, we thought we were smart and ordered to go. Still ended up waiting 30 minutes past their stated time for 2 burger orders. Was it worth the wait: In comparison to restaurants around the area for price, taste, and yield, the 2 burgers were worth the wait. read more

Looked like a hopping place so we wanted to give it a try for our family dinner. We decided to sit outside so put our name on the waitlist (there is a separate waitlist for indoor dining). We were told it would take about 35 minutes. It ended up taking WAY longer, but we stuck it out rather than start over somewhere else. The QR code ordering system is a little off-putting; not sure if it's the same way inside. It's so impersonal and you can't ask any questions. The kids liked playing corn hole while waiting for our food order. Drinks are ordered separately from food, but you can do that inside at the bar or online. My husband went inside for our pitcher of Imperial Root Beer and we got it fairly quickly. It was really good! We got most of our order maybe around 15 minutes after placing it, except for my son, who ordered a flatbread pizza. He still hadn't gotten it maybe 10 minutes after the rest of us got our food. I had to go inside and ask about it, when I was told that those get backed up in making them. It seemed very odd that we would all get our food so much before him. It still took another 5 minutes or so before it came out. Also, we ordered the Brussels sprouts appetizer, which was brought out with our entrees ‍ It was very different and tasty though. My husband really liked his Birria tacos, my daughter was wanting another chicken sandwich the next day but $20 for my small side salad with chicken was just average and way overpriced. After dinner we went in to buy a 4 pack of their beer to go. Bartender gave us the "locals" discount for our pizza wait earlier, but walked away from the register before the transaction was complete then got into a conversation down at the other end of the bar while I was still trying to pay. No one else was helping us. Not sure if they were having an off night or if that's how they treat non-locals, but it was kind of disappointing overall. read more

The guys in the kitchen recommended the ribs, and they were fall off the bone Delicious. American style bbq sauce,sweet but no spice. The beans were excellent. Very west coast with fresh tomato in the sauce. Pasta salad was heavily flavored with black olives, and not my style...but if it's yours order them. Ribs were pricey. So be prepared. I had a,red ale from the brewery that went great with the ribs. $7/pint, no actual glass outside a disappointment,but it's still covid after all:-)) read more
