Mode Brewing

Mode Brewing is a total vibe! This family owned business gives true meaning about the family that cooks together...You want to try Mode. You need to try Mode. This has become my fun hangout spot with friends, family, and it's a fun date night spot. What was a food truck, it's now all grown up into a cool restaurant. The interior has the cool side of the food truck as part of the interior. On one side, the brother (Jeff) is brewing up some tasty craft beer ! He knows his brew!The sister and BIL, (Randy & Tracy) along with "mom", are cooking up some delicious food. You'll want to order it all. Just do it! Everything is seriously tasty! Short rib ragu. This is a sin that it tastes so good. Pasta. Short ribs. Sauce. Mix that all together, and you won't want to leave. The Italian stallion. It tastes as good as it sounds. It's meaty. It's cheesy. It is perfection. Because dessert is a must... you will want Nana's balls. Mom knows dessert, and these fried ice cream balls will make you wonder why your mom didn't create these. Order 4. One isn't enough. Even if you're full. Craft beer. Good good. Good desserts. This is the place to try!

What a find!!! Discovered this place totally by accident. Was looking for a dinner place with outdoor space so my kids could run around while we wait for food. This place was just that, and more!! Love the menu, some great options. We ordered a pizza, corn chowder, short rib ragu, polenta fries. All very delicious! Our little ones got to run around their fenced in outdoor seating area (yay they can't run off into the street because it's fenced in). Husband & I also enjoyed drinks while waiting for food, loved the sangria cider!Our boys loved playing with the giant four score board. I promised my kid ice cream earlier that day so decided to try the ice cream balls and OMG!!! We had the apple pie and Reese lightening and just so impressed with how rich and delicious these ice cream bars were. Next time we'll order and try all 4! Very unique, never had "ice cream balls" before, highly recommend trying!You order and pay inside and they bring the food out to you. The cashier lady was very helpful and informative about the menu selections. Very pleasant dinner experience for our family, will definitely be back!

I went here a while ago for the first time after a long day at college and got their polenta fries and vegan fettuccine alfredo. Both were so good! The second time around, I got one of their panini's and wow, I was pleasantly surprised with the vegan bacon and the mix of different fruits and veggies, like arugula, roasted red peppers, and apple. Who would've thought an apple would go well in a sandwich! Plus, to top it all off, it had a chipotle fig spread was very delicious.Along with that, I has one of their vegan ice cream balls and it was their pumpkin spice. Very good to say the least. Will definitely be going back!

I love delicious beer and vegan food, so put those two things together under the same roof and this is definitely a brewery I can get behind. As someone who doesn't worship at the altar of the IPA, it was so refreshing to see a variety of beers that included maltier styles as well. Of the dozen taps available when I visited, I tried the Globetrotter (Oktoberfest) and Pioneer (American brown ale) and enjoyed them both. The food at Mode is casual American-Italian. Small personal pizzas, paninis, and pasta dishes. I first learned of Mode during last year's Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge, so was happy to see that they still had many vegan options on the menu. The vegan polenta fries were perfectly crispy, well-seasoned, and came with ample dipping sauces - I would definitely get those again to share. The vegan Great White pizzetta was fantastic! I'm picky about a sourdough crust and this one was spot on, as were the toppings. I highly recommend trying it. You might drive right past this spot and miss it, but don't be fooled by the little parking lot out front (there's a huge area behind the building).Inside is small, but the dog-friendly patio out back is where it's at. Several shaded tables make this an ideal spot for groups too. There's even a water feature - a large koi pond with water flowing through repurposed keg taps. Clever.I also liked how you could run a tab that was connected to both ordering food from the kitchen and ordering beer from the brewery, which are on opposite sides of the building. It's a smart set up and keeps the wait time to a minimum. I'll definitely be back for more of their beer (hellooooo Pumpkin Ale) and vegan food options. Check them out!

I was glad to see that they had other styles represented besides IPA: amber, brown ale, Oktoberfest. I enjoyed the latter two! The food was pretty decent! They had a number of tasty selections on the menu. Things are made fresh to order and are served up piping hot. The Vampire Slayer (garlicked) cheese pizza, in particular, is novelty cut in tiny squares so sharing around as appetizer bites is easy.The front of the brew pub is small, but once inside, you can see the spacious patio area out back. There are several/many wood picnic tables spaced apart with a nice water fountain feature central to the space. It's a good place for groups to meet up.This was my first visit, but definitely not my last. The combination of good beers AND good eats make returning here a no-brainer.Note: they close at 7pm on Sundays.

This place is great for: a solo date, a casual date night out, a meet up with some friends, or an outing with your doggo or kiddos. Beers, hard ciders, and sodas. Casual yet creative food options that won't break the bank. FYI: Vegan food is available! Limited indoor seating but ample outdoor seating with games, fire pits, picnic benches, lighting, and a lovely little water fountain to set the ambient vibes.

What a great local brewery. There is a parking lot in front of the business and we were greeted right away. There is a small area for seating inside and a nice outside area where you can bring your dog. They also offer food so we ordered some food and beer. We got a couple of the pizzas and they were yummy. We got the Hog Wild and Vampire Slayer. The owners are so nice and we were talking about their beers and the food. We also appreciated they offer Nitty's Cider which is also good. I really enjoyed the Swashbuckler and the Pumpkin ale. We really enjoyed talking with a couple of the owners and you can see they are passionate about their beer and brewery. We bought a couple of t-shirts also as we liked the logo and QR code. Outside were many tables and corn hole was available. There is also a well with fish in there. Stop by and check it out. You won't be disappointed.

They now have brunch! It's as delicious as everything else we've ever had there. We ordered eggs in purgatory, breakfast pizza and the French toast.

Our go to brewery and lunch spot in Orangevale. The paninis, pasta, and pizzas are all great. The polenta fries are by far the best I've had and the marinara dipping sauce pairs perfectly. We've tried almost the whole menu at this point and nothing has been lacking. They also have a nice kid friendly outdoor eating area in the back. As a fan of the ale family of beers I am right at home with the selection on tap. The red, blonde, and porter are my go to beers here, but the pumpkin ale is also surprisingly good (I'm not normally a pumpkin person). Highly recommend. Give this awesome place your business.

Food, delish. Staff, friendly and sincere. Beer, wonderful! Will definitely be back to try more of the Italian inspired dishes. Had the plain Iane pizza on homemade sourdough crust. Great cheese perfect amount of pepperoni. Also had polenta fries...super crispy and fresh out of the fryer. Back patio has a koi pond, nice touch. I give 5 's. Thank you, Mode
