One stop, four businesses: Pizza Cassette, Oddish Wine, A Meadery, and Deft Brewery. Top it all off, they host live music on Friday and Saturday nights. Family and pet friendly.Kid-friendliness: No highchairs, but very kid friendly.

The ambiance was great. Parking is terrible !!! But if you carpool with people it's not bad and can make it work. They have everything you need with beer and pizza and wine ! Great place for a group and dog friendly !

First time visit, been on my saved list for a too long. We waited too long to visit. Love this place! Wine, beer, cider, mead, (& sodas for the kids) delicious pizza, live music ! Not too loud so you can talk, family friendly & dog friendly. Great service from each vendor on site. My wife and Inwill definitely be back with friends! Great date night.

This is a cool music venue that is nestled in between Deft Brewing and a Mead place as well as wine. They also have a pizza truck that serves delicious pizza. Place is dog friendly.

We've been wanting to try this place for some time now. The patio is sprinkled with beautiful olive trees and other greenery - hops, etc. Fun fact: you can "adopt a hop." There are a few drink places to choose from- Lost Cause Meadery, Oddish wines, and Deft brewery. The food place is called Pizza Cassette and has delicious pizzas including a vegan selection. We had The Queen, Rossi No cheese (vegan) and The Sting pizzas. I stopped by Oddish for their Red blend and my husband had The Red IPA at Deft. The server at Oddish was so lovely and we had a great conversation about the wines. Love that the bottles read "unfiltered and unfined, it's OK, relax!" Overall a relaxing experience with delicious food and drinks. Kid and dog friendly as well!

Great spot to gather with a group! Live music was great, pizza & sandwiches were delicious (though a bit pricy) and there's drinks for everyone: beer, wine and mead. Casual & just walk up to get your own drinks. Will definitely be back.

Tucked away in an industrial area, so unsuspecting, and yet so inviting and cozy is the garten. A pizzeria, brewery, meadery, and winery around a small, covered, outdoor patio / Biergarten that has live music on weekend nights. They did a great job creating the space so that guests forget they surround by a bunch of textile companies and concrete. The only problem here is trying to figure out why they spelt it with ä

They have a small wood fired oven outside. The pizza was delicious and perfectly crispy. It is a very thin crust pizza though, but I don't mind that.They had live music when we went on a Friday night and the ambiance was super cute. It was pretty packed.They also have beer on tap and the beer was also good! Service was good as the food came out relatively quickly, though you have to order the food yourself at the counter. Overall, a nice place to hang with friends with a cute atmosphere :)Food: 4/5Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5

Currently my favorite brewery in San Diego! The partnership between Deft , Lost Cause ( Meadery/ Oddish Wine) and pizza cassette has created an amazing place to have a drink, hang out, eat and listen to music. Well done Garten!
