I would say there was at least 15 people in front of me and several more people behind. Even though the lines were long I didn't mind because there was a girl that was putting out fresh samples the entire time and even the lemonades! They were delicious especially the strawberry lemonade and pizza nuggets. My family enjoyed the free samples that helped us choose what to order when it was our time so it made it easier for both my family and the workers I'm assuming instead of thinking of what to get. My family and my self ended up ordering the pepperoni bites, cinnamon sugar bites, the mini hot dog bites and then a sweet almond pretzel from a coupon my son got from school a while back! They were all super fresh and we even got some straight out of the oven so they were nice and hot! The drinks were very refreshing not too sweet like some other places. The staff were all so friendly and knew what they were doing! Kudos to this group of young people for managing so well on such a busy weekend.

If you're in the area, their happy hour runs Monday-Thursday from 3-5 PM and is well worth a visit!

There are plenty of amazing places to eat in Carmel, but this is a hidden gem. It's practically hidden away in a plaza with an outdoor patio, but there is plenty of indoor seating as well parking of course can be tricky in this area, but you shouldn't have to walk more than a block or two. I've been to other Alvarado Street brewery locations, but they each independently run and this one is by far my favorite. They always have different things on the menu to eat and drink and we are always satisfied. My +1 has a go to salad with raw beets in it, and I usually prefer something meatier. This time I went for a brisket sandwich, which was a little bit greasy (as expected) but was incredible. The meat was cooked to perfection and it paired well with the brioche bun and whatever sauce they put on it. We also had a calamari appetizer, which was elevated with some furikake seasoning. The beers, of course were absolutely delicious. I tried one of their sours and a barley wine. My +1 opted for a stout. The flavors are always changing, so we never know what we're going to get to try the next time we visit. If elevated bar food and craft beer, sounds like a good time to you, I would recommend this place in a heartbeat!

A huge assortment of House made Brews is featured and they have a full bar that servers mean cocktails. A little noisy inside but hey, it's a Brew Pub!

While my car was in the shop, I wandered around Obama Way because the redevelopment has been amazing. Other Brother is one of the high points in this neighborhood & offers a nice anchor to the smaller storefronts. Seating is designed for groups with large booths or cafeteria-style tables. There's an al fresco option and garage door-style window seating indoors where one can watch the al fresco diners! Overall, fun concept; but not really a friendly place for one person who wants good food, quiet space, and room to read a book. Order before sitting. Menu is small & offers pub-style dining options with a gourmet CA twist. **Special Note: cooking oil is RICE BRAN & it's delicious, so order the tater tots & be prepared to toss out your epi-pen while having your taste buds delighted! The oil must be light, so the tots were crispy with a sweetness that highlighted the potato flavor. OMG... I'm drooling as a write this review & craving more of the rice bran cooking oil tater tots! I had the BLT without mayo (just in case it contained my allergen). The bread, giant butter lettuce leaf, & thick hunks of tomato ensured the the sandwich was moist. The bacon was quite thick & delicious. I don't drink beer, but when in Rome... I ordered the baby beer glassful of beer. Dunno what it was -- something that looked like water & had a few earthy tasting bubbles. It was good. Really good. Great suggestion, Bartender! I had to pick up my meal from the window & was treated to a serenade by the kitchen crew. Lovely. From a health & safety perspective, the design is neat & super clean. Ladies!! Special treat in the bathroom... Other Brother management recognizes our special hygiene needs & offers a basket filled with supplies. OMG! This was better than dessert!! Other Brother loves us. Parking: street parking at no charge, but busy times might mean you have a short walk. The 'hood is nice & very clean. BRING YOUR ID. It's a BEER joint. Don't blame the restaurant staff for doing their job & carding everyone.
