Best pizza I ever had. Rachel and Matt are so nice and made our experience so much better! Definitely coming again. So worth it!! The inside is so cute with arcade games and it has a really nice outdoor patio as well!

Hung out at Barebottle for the husband's birthday and overall, had a nice time! Our group arrived around noon and although the place was busy, we were able to grab a table. Barebottle offers a wide selection of beers in which we couldn't decide on just one. So, we opted for the flight and I'm glad we did, because all of them tasted good! Staff was friendly, service was quick, and prices were fair. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and atmosphere is chill yet lively. All in all, solid taproom.

First time here and it was good! I got a strawberry sour ale & a light ale called, "tapping potential", and both were good! Lots of seatings, games, etc. if you want a board game, you'll need to give them your ID. Restrooms were clean. And if you order food, they'll give you a buzzer, and once your buzzer rings, you pick up your food. Parking is in a parking lot/garage. Overall, it's a nice place!

This is a great neighborhood brewery with plenty of seating and some fun arcade games. We came to watch the Euro finals, and they had it playing, which was awesome. The atmosphere was laid-back and welcoming. They have a "bring your own food" policy, so we grabbed pizzas from Mountain Mike's to enjoy with their solid beer selection. The servers were friendly and helpful, making it a great spot to relax and hang out.

The beer was tasty, their flights are sizable. The customer service can be a bit slow, but other than that it's a very chill place. They show sports on the TVs. You can bring food in or buy their flatbread (pizza). The arcade in the back is pretty fun.

BOMB DOT COM! Absolutely love this brewery and glad they have another location. We happened upon this place when we were on our way to a San Jose Earthquake match and I'm glad we did. This location is BEAUTIFUL, located near some condos and high end shopping. The building is huge, with lots of windows which allows for lots of natural light. They definitely kept the same ambiance as the original location with the video games. Staff is fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. BEER is top notch! They offer a little bit of everything from light to hoppy to sour to dark beers. Everything is packed with flavor and very well balanced. I've never had a beer from BareBottle that I haven't loved. In fact, we seek out their beers at local watering holes near our house. Some of my favorite beers that they make are their SOURS. They tend to choose fruits that blend well and the beers make you pucker just enough. PIZZA: They offer some pizzas which you can order at the counter. They even have VEGAN options which is a plus because my partner is dairy-free and not a lot of pizza places offer vegan options. PARKING: We found parking behind the building near the condos. There is no street parking but you should be able to find parking relatively easy. You may need to walk a bit but that gets you prepped up for some pizza and beer! TO-GO: They have a lot of beers to go, crowlers and 4-pks. We always grab a bunch to go and you should too! I definitely hope to revisit this location but I'll drink their beer anytime I find it!

We came here for a friend's birthday, and the ambiance was great. There's plenty of high-top seating as well as scattered couches, making it a comfortable and casual setting. It looks like they've added a small arcade in the back, which is a fun touch. They offer a wide variety of beers on tap, though I thought the drinks were just okay. Unfortunately, they didn't have any ciders, which was a bit disappointing, but I did notice a few non-alcoholic options on the menu. Many breweries or bars have average food, but the Detroit-style pizza here is delicious! It's fluffy, thick, and carries the toppings really well. You order directly at the bar, and the staff are friendly. I wouldn't mind coming back again with friends!

4.5 stars- Barebottle Brewing Company had been on my radar to try for a while, and the place did not disappoint. The taproom is located in the modern & bustling Santa Clara Square. Great place to catch up with a friend, stop in for a cold beer, or just relax. I would consider this place an upccale brewery. Very nice beer selection here! Especially the IPAs. I came here with my friend who wanted to play chess. I suggested a brewery and we met here. Their beer selection is rather impresive, and they have it nicely broken down by beer type on the menu. I tried 2 different IPA's, one called the Unicorn Dust IPA & another called the Juicy Couture IPA. Both were very flavorful and delicious! I love how you can get a 5 oz pour and it still comes in the lovely & more fancy looking beer glass. The place itself is fairly spacious. Plenty of tables and couches. When you walk in, the arcades are on the right. Order your beer and food on the left. Looks like they added a food menu recently. Also, they have a water hydration area to get water. Parking is convenient - park nearby on the main strip with the Sephora, Starbucks, & restaruants; in the Whole Foods lots; or across the street in the parking garage. I can't wait to return in the future!

I literally stopped by when I saw the pinball machines through the windows. It was fun! The place is spacious and has plenty of seats. You can play pool, race or play guitar if you are not into pinball. The place is of course famous for a big variety of beer, and there are so many different things to choose from! They have game nights, chess plays and so on! I tried the following: - Athletic N/A Beer - 12oz -$6.00. - it was okay, but probably I will not try it again. - Coco Froth Nitro Milk Stout - 5.8% ABV - $8.00 - it was very smooth and you can feel cocoa flavours! The prices were average and regular for the bar I'd say. Staff was friendly! There is a parking garage nearby or you can also find some street parking slots close by. And one more important thing is that they open till 11pm!

I feel the best breweries are the ones that JUST focus on the beer. A place where we can bring our own food. Quality/Quantity - Mini Muir - Hazy Pale Ale, might be the first time I tried a hazy pale ale. Usually it is an IPA. This (just like their flagship beer) is way too easy to drink. Muir Woods - Their flagship beer; I can see why. So smooth and easy to drink. Too easy... Atmosphere - Good size location. Separate entrance for to-go orders. Indoor, outdoor (heated during the winter) seating. Small arcade, pool table, etc. Table, counter, lounge seating. Is this a big meeting/hook up place? See pictures of events. Open 7 days a week from noon till 9pm or 11pm. Men and women restrooms; the best part is the hand washing stations are NOT in the bathrooms. Garage guest parking, no problem today. Service - Counter service. Bus your own tables, etc. Self-service water. Price - $19 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2016 and with your 4 locations.
