13 Best Brewpubs near Pismo Beach

Kulturhaus Brewing Company Brewery • $$
779 Price St, Pismo Beach

“Met the boss, not sure if she was the owner but she wouldn't let me have a bad beer or sample from the same glass to insure I got the best flavor to pick from the menu. We got the pickled plate and it was actually good. Pickled veggies, fennel, cauliflower and several other offerings. I do not like beets but these I would eat again. You can even take pickling classes at this place and sounds like a lot of fun. Stop in and grab some veggies, a great brew and meet the locals. The place is primarily open to the elements so it is a little chilly in the winter months.“

“Overall a nice place to eat and have a few drinks. Very friendly service. There are lots of beers to choose from and a large variety. Not just weird IPAs. You can have brown ale, larger, white beer, Amber and blonde beers as well. I would certainly come here again. Its location is ideal being close to the 101 and the local hotels. The price is very reasonable also.“

Apogee Brewing Company Brewery • $$
191 S Oak Park Blvd #3, Grover Beach - 2.41 miles

“Excellent beer, and they really know how to make you feel at home! The staff here were the warmest and most welcoming people, and even though it was my first time going I was made to feel as though I was a regular. The moon dormie was the best blonde ale I have ever tasted, so naturally I had to take a crowler home. Will be going back when I’m in the area!“

Locals Taproom Brewpubs • $
90 San Miguel St, Avila Beach - 5.79 miles

“Local's Taproom is an Avila staple after just 2 months of business. Owned and operated by the previous taproom's bartenders, it fully embodies the 70's-80's surf vibe that is so needed in a small, safe environment trying to create a safe space for everyone to enjoy local brews and wines. Creating an atmosphere that is so inviting can only cause such an establishment to skyrocket to one of the hottest spots in such a small town. Although there are plenty of comfortable, vibey spots in town, Locals Taproom is a fun local atmosphere that can be enjoyed by all. Although they don't offer food, they are welcoming to the idea of inviting outside food to accompany their many local draughts (or drafts). As a pair of local owners, Local's Taproom is a must if you are visiting Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo, or Arroyo Grande. In the summer, there is a *free* trolley that transports through Pismo, all the way through Shell Beach, as well as Avila and is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a beverage (or three) without having to Uber or Lyft between you and your permanent or temporary summer home. 5 out of 5 in all respects that are relevant to this quaint and inviting establishment.“

“I am in love with Oak & Otter! We've been coming here since 2020 and love it every single time. Not only are the beverages (beer/cider/seltzers) great, the staff/other patrons are equally as fantastic! Everyone is super friendly and you'll definitely leave with some new friends. Our go-to's are their unique seltzers and delicious pretzels. They're located in a more industrial area but they are a MUST in my book. Love ya, O & O!“

Libertine Brewing Company Brewery • $$
1234 Broad St, San Luis Obispo - 9.41 miles

“Second time here, though first visit was several years ago so I had forgotten. Then I remembered I liked it. And I still do. Their specialty for their own brews is sours. And they have a really nice range of those, from berry to citrusy, salty to sweet. If you don't like sours, have no fear: They have a huge range of other beers and ales on tap. Again, a really nice range, one that favors California breweries. The food is very good, a step up from standard bar food. They have good burgers and sandwiches, of course, and various fries. But also really good salads, tater tots, and more. Pleasant open space, and very friendly, helpful waitstaff. SLO has a few other good, local brewery restaurants, including Antigua and Central Coast, but Libertine should be on your go-to list as well, and if you're a bit foodie at the top.“

“I came from out of town to take in a concert next door at the Fremont Theater. The Antigua's space is clean and the staff is very welcoming, making this out of towner feel right at home and I was seated. I was planning to drink/eat solo and ordered, but later saw a friend (going to the same concert) and invited him to join me. The staff was accommodating of the quick change and brought out another menu for my pal, who proceeded to grill our staff person on beer options! She handled it with aplomb and pointed him toward a beer he would enjoy, and he did. I ordered the sliders along with the chips/salsa (both really good!) to go along with a Hazy Baby IPA. I've had many IPA brands and this was one of the best if not the best I had...not harsh like some IPAs, but very very smooth. You can tell they care about what they serve. It was so good I had another, thinking I could sober up by the time I had to drive home to San Francisco. Bottom line: Good vibes, relaxed environment, good eats and great beer. I wish SF had more places like this. If I were a local, Antigua Brewing Company would definitely be a go to place.“

My husband had the fish and chips, which he said were very good. The pizza looks great, though I haven't had one. Highly recommend this establishment.“
