Overall, it's a solid place. Would recommend ppl come and check it out the food hit the spot. Nice big window to see the big copper still pot. Of course all the spirits that are made in house, delicious cocktails and spirit flights

Came here on a weeknight. Huge selection of drinks. Few non alcoholic drinks available. Limited menu. They have trivia games on Thursday night which can get loud. Note that they run tabs per table and won’t do individual checks. So, have a plan on who’s going to pay the table tab and how to reimburse that person.

Neat place with lots of seating, good food and tons of spirits!Crispy chicken sandwich was tasty and kettle chips were a nice addition. $12 for a dozen 1/4 shot tastings was very fun! You can buy entire bottles of spirits to go.
My husband and I had the smoked rosemary Manhattan.. That was a 10I had a French 75.. First time having one and I'm not a huge gin person, but wanted to try this classic.. So that was an 8.. Again not them, but me.And my husband had the Kimmies winter punch and that was a 9.We took a menu and marked it off.. We plan to work through all the drinks

The flight tasting of all the J.J. items was amazing! Food was delicious and the portion sizes were shareable. The ambiance was great, we sat outside, and the service was incredibly friendly. Will definitely be back to try more of the cocktails offered!

We went with a group of friends on a Saturday night and had a great time! The drinks looked and tasted great and they were very reasonably priced. The food was above average - our group tried everything from the salmon to the burger to the tots and everyone left happy!As a bonus we got a distillery tour from Corey - he obviously loves his job and gave us lots of great insight about the production and the business.There was live music - and in all honestly, it was decidedly mediocre - but it didn't detract from our great experience.Highly recommend!
I am not from Sacramento and wanted to find a special place to celebrate my partner's birthday who was getting into whiskey. He loved it. We went here when they were started and the menu was limited. Since then it has grown. The flavors in their sandwiches are rich and delicious. My last sandwich was a picnic one and it was interesting yet good.The atmosphere is very relaxed. The service are made of kind and friendly people who are always available to help out and answer questions.Their drinks are always fancy looking or casual...it makes you feel special haha! They are always good. I am not a drinker...but their recommendations for light drinks are always a hit.I never booked the private tasting room, but every time I sneak a peek inside everyone is enjoying themselves. If I ever wanted to go all out on a special event, J.J. Pfister would be on the list.I also want to add, during our first time there we purchase some bottle of their liquor. They are packed in cute bottles and sometimes they have ready packages that would make thoughtful gifts.

Thank you to JJPfister for hosting a great retirement lunch for our company. The barrel room was the perfect size, the food was delicious and the service was exceptional. Whether you are popping in for lunch, a post work drink, or need to host a gathering, I highly recommend JJ Pfister!

Loved the vibe and atmosphere! Good customer service. Great menu variety for brunch and was happy to see so many gluten free options! The biscuits and gravy were so good!!! Also, really enjoyed the cheesy grits as the side. Will definitely be back to try lunch and dinner. Absolutely recommend! Was able to also watch them do a smoked cocktail for another table who was going to do the distillery tour. Entertaining to watch and listen about the smoking process.Dietary restrictions: Many gluten free options!
