“ My husband and I came here for our monthly motorcycle meetup. Lots of space especially during the summer with outdoor seating. We have come here just the two of us with our pup too. Dog friendly patio is a plus! Witch's Hat Brewing Company has a good selection of beers, meads, and ciders. I love the giggle juice and the blueberry bumble. The giggle juice is strong so adding it to a seltzer like the blueberry bumble makes it last a little longer. There is a good selection of food. My husband ordered the birra elote deconstructed bowl and I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with an extra patty. I opted for no bun with sweet potato fries. So good! The burger is made smashed style with caramelized onions with the mushrooms. The sweet potato fries come with a thousand island type sauce. Yum! The service is always great. Our waitress was so nice, attentive, and did a great job with our party of 15. ”
“ The food is delicious, the beer is amazing, the staff does a great job and it's fun to have a gorgeous mug in the wall! ”
“ It's been 8 years since my first review and WHB has since become a staple stop-off on those weekend afternoons when I'm looking for a relaxing spot for a pint. Service is always friendly and I have a few favorite pours that are well enjoyed with a snack. Most recently I tried their Hatsmash burger that came with a stack of thick handcut fries... definitely recommended. ”
“ Great atmosphere knowledgeable wait staff friendly and helpful love eating on the outside porch overlooking all the sunflowers - the PB wings were very expensive $20 for 8 wings and not as good as last time we were there - hubby enjoys the beers and everything else we have had there was delicious - have gone several times when we visit the area and would recommend - dog friendly patio ”
“ Had the Birria tacos. Really great flavor. Also had the elote wings and those were equally as good. Service was excellent. Great place to sit and have some beers and good food. Def will be back. ”

“ Came up here on Saturday at noon to meet up with an old buddy. This is his go to spot for drinks, so had to give the place a try. One thing I liked was the fact that they will let you sample the beer - which I did because I wasn't sure which one to get... after trying four different samples, went with OWLS. I didn't even ask if I could sample them, the server asked if I wanted to sample them to see if I liked them or not before I ordered! Friendly and helpful staff from front of the house to the back. I'm giving four stars because of friendly staff members. The bar is located in the back with main seating area, loved that we got seated right away, so that was nice. As for the foods goes - it's ok, not the greatest food, but not bad either. Had the Carne Asada fries to start out with, then ordered the fish and chips. I loved the fries, as it's freshly made as I'm told. I was disappointed with the Carne Asada fries, as I was expecting strips of sliced beef, but it was topped with ground beef. The fish and chips was decent as well, was NOT a fan of the pickle aioli, everyday tartar sauce would been perfect! Definitely place to visit to try their beer offering, the food is decent, but come for the beers :) ”
“ We stopped in here for a late lunch and had a really nice meal! I came here with my friend who is a local and literally lives walking distance from here. She is not as adventurous an eater as I am, but I successfully convinced her to give it a try. We were able to get seated inside right away. They have a really cool atmosphere inside, and some awesome indoor/outdoor seating for whatever the weather dictates or whatever you're feeling. I loved the tables inside with the bottle-cap tops. Even though we got seated right away though, the service was extremely slow. Our lunch dragged on a lot longer than we had hoped it would. Not sure if they were understaffed, and I understand if that's the case. But this is just something to consider, maybe plan on staying a little longer than anticipated. I got the Mexican prime rib sandwich. I liked the taste of it a lot, I just thought they were a little skimpy on the meat. My coworker got the strawberry spinach salad that was on special. She was delighted with this. I think she'll be back, and I'd definitely love to come back next time I'm in the area! ”
