Witch's Hat Brewing Company

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 and beer were good, but this is about a specific incident that just happened. We have a reactive dog that we are currently working with training. In the mean time what we do when we go out for food occasionally is leave her in the car to minimize the amount to react to. We leave her in with food and water, and start the car up to keep it conditioned for her. We were on our way back from a training course and thought it might be fun to grab some food and drink quick at Witch's Hat. While we were eating someone called the cops on us because they saw the dog in the car. I'd rather they had a conversation with us, and we could have explained the situation, but such is life.The reason that I'm writing this one star review is that someone from Witch's Hat came out and informed us that the cops had been called. We tried explaining the situation and he immediately said "I walked by the car and it wasn't running" and then kept informing us that it was a dog-friendly patio. I love that the patio is dog friendly, but our reactive dog shouldn't be out on the patio currently and was being treated well. The fact that a person that works at the establishment refused to ask questions and immediately assumed poor intention makes it so that I will never be returning to Witch's Hat in the future. All he had to do was ask a single question (similar to the people that called the police in the first place). But again, such is life, and I will be enjoying beer and food elsewhere and continuing to train and love on my dog in the ways that work best for us.

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.

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 :)

Saturday afternoon visit. Had been here once before and wasn't impressed and decided to try again. Still not impressed.What we liked:* Good variety of beers.*Immediate seating.* Hostess was great, good interaction.* Waitress was beyond friendly- Disney friendly and helpful.What could be better:* Chicken strips were ok however came with fries that were room temperature at best.* The tacos were beyond disappointing- 4 little tacos with a basic beef broth. For the price they were underwhelming.* Their amber beer just wasn't good, I realize beer is incredibly subjective. Ambers are my go to and this was just to hoppy for an amber.Overall two visits and we want to like the place. However the food has not delivered.

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!

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.

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!
