The music was good and the atmosphere was fun. The food left something to be desired. The beer selection was unique and our server knew a lot about the beers being offered. More

Menu has a lot of choices. Usually there is live music on weekends. Don't let the bar crowd make you think the restaurant is full. Often there is restaurant space when the bar is jammed. Great beer choices. More

We made our first visit and will go back. We sat at the bar and got to know the owner a little. Very good selection of beers and he will explain them all to you. There were a lot of locals but we were treated like a regular customer. It just has a nice atmosphere and nothing stuffy. The mac... More

I decided to take my daughter out to Barley & Hops tonight. Usually we go to the Union Hotel since we know what we like and the beer is always cold. I'd rather sit in the bar area since usually the service tends to be better, but the very tiny bar was full. The harried hostess/waitress(?) show us to the... More

This place has fairly good hamburgers, and the fish & chips are good. The only problem we had with this place was the food was a little too greasy. Especially, the onion rings. They have a large selction of beers and the service is nice. More

In planning our trip to wine country, we were looking for a spot near our hotel in Guerneville, and found this place with great reviews on TripAdvisor. We (sadly) arrived a day after their Octoberfest, however still found some extremely friendly staff and locals to share the evening with, and had some fabulous food and drink. We loved the homebrew... More

My husband and I were in Bodega Bay for the day and we drove to Occidental to look around and found this gem. Its super casual, laid back and a fun atmosphere. It looks like a big house with all your friends hanging out enjoying a beer. They have SO many beers here from all over the world, they have... More

This place is amazing! And that's all you need to know. But for explanation's sake, the food is superb and affordable, the beer selection is bar none the best in the Bay Area, the vibe is amazing, cool live music, no cover, great ambiance, good people, greater times. And with a rotating burger of the week (made of local grass-fed... More
