Cucamonga Brewing Co

French bread pizza was pretty good, redneck tacos were awesome, honey blonde karishma

Poor service we sat at table for 15+ minutes without even so much a hello. We left and went elsewhere. Bummer was looking forward to a beer.

CLOSED!
Went here last night and they’ve closed the place. Hopefully a restaurant that can actually serve proper food and drink will open here. Changing their name a while back (to try and avoid the bad taste affiliated with their previous name) and nothing else obviously didn’t work!
Good Riddance!

When you first walk into the Brewing Company, you’re hit with a neon sign that says «Walk in the Pork.» To the upper right of that sign is a statue named Jack Daniel wearing a mosiac blazer. What do these things have to do with the brewery? I’m not exactly sure but I’m a fan of the kitsch either way.
I came here before a Quakes game. This was walking distance from where we parked at the stadium. Our group of 8 was sat quickly on a nice big table and we were all very pleased with the selection of beers. I decided to make my own sampler which I mixed with both in house beer and beers from other breweries. At least ³⁄₅ were something I’d try again. And have no fear, because the sampler beers are $ 1 so there is no hard feelings if you want to end your relationship with that beer after the first sip.
The rest of my friends ordered either a pitcher or a pint for $ 5. Our waitress was kind of enough to split up our bill into individual checks (THANK YOU!) and everyone left happy and buzzed.
I would definitely come back if I ever make my way to Rancho again.

I may or may not have come here on a Thursday night singing «You’re So Vain» by Carly Simon on Karaōke. But let’s just say that in the event that I did… they have a great sound system, microphone and spotlight for my terrible, off-​key singing. I also had some nice $ 3 beers to warm me up. The appetizers are pretty standard but I can’t complain about good, cheap beer and an awesome karaōke place. It’s a great place for friends. But if you’re trying to go on a date, you might have to talk over whoever is on stage singing. They also have an older crowd. I tried to be a wingwoman for my 50+ coworker. It was good times!
Though the beers were cheap, everything else was expensive. I had no idea why the bill was so high… but the beer was soo good, that I didn’t really analyze the bill like I should have… hahahaa

Well after seeing all the bad reviews you know I just had to see what was going on as it looked like a good establishment from the outside. First the downside. I can see why people would complain a bit. The inside is dated and dark and makes it feel like a dark and dingy basement feel to it. However the facility was clean. Now the positive.
The service was terrific! Our server Rachel was fantastic! Very friendly, prompt, courteous, helpful and performed her job very well! She would get five stars.
The food was really quite good. We had the BBQ sampler plate that could easily be shared with two. The tri-​tip had a nice smokey falvor to it, the sausage had a nice bite to it, the pulled pork was very well seasoned & the ribs fell off the bone. Not to bad… :) My only suggestion would be to lose one of the pork dish’s and be able to add bbq chicken to it. It was just way too much meat. The wedge salad was also good and done exactly as I requested. I really could not find anything to really pick on with the exception of the décor and dark dingy feeling you get. Everything else was spot on. :)

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! We were seated on the upper stage… waitress took our drink order, then she must have known the 5 guys that came in and sat near us. She talked to them for 15 mins… then got them their drinks. We were still waiting for ours.
We were a party of 5… 3 of our food orders were incorrect. Another order was cold by the time it got to us. We stacked our empty glasses … waited and waited and oh yeah… we continued to wait for the watiress to come back and clear the table, and MAYBE order another drink. Mind you… she has been back to talk to the group of guys next to us numerous times.
Went down to the bar to order drinks. One bartender working… With no bar skilll what so ever. You take orders from customers in the order they came in… or atleast try. They were totally unorganized.
This place needs new management. New servers… NEW EVERYTHING!!!
We will never be back.

Came on a Saturday morning around 11:30am, while waiting for my car tires at American Tire Depot across the street. Decided to have a beer on tap. The pricing was fair. Had the House IPA for 6 dollars a pint. Def want to come back during happy hour, but its only on Thursdays? Weird.
The bartender wasn’t really friendly, even though no one was at the bar besides one other guy. She was only friendly while she gave me my bill –_​– Obviously she wanted a fat tip for her crappy mean service.
I also ordered the egg rolls togo, which was pretty good ! It was like a cripsy cream cheese egg roll. Def want to go back and try their burgers… esp that mac& cheese one.

Don’t know why this place gets the reviews it does. Been here on a couple of occasions. Sure, the people who work here don’t act like they love working here but the chefs are putting out good food. Fried Mac and cheese burger, awesome. Red neck tacos, delicious. Sliders, go with pulled pork. IPA pitchers during football Sundays, 10 bucks! Bartender seems like she would rather be somewhere else but I don’t care. The food and drink beats other chain restaurants. We’ll go back for the food and the opportunity to have a good time with who we’re eating with, not stellar service.

Went here two nights ago… This review is solely for the restuarant side of the business and food. BOTTOM LINE: I would prefer Sizzlers ANY night for dinner. I was excited for a local place to eat… they should have just stuck to beers. Now to dissect my dinner experience:
1. We walked in and waited at the front for someone to seat us since it was a slow night. After a few minutes a lady finally came out, didn’t smile at us just grabbed menus and sat us at a table right in front of the open front door. It was very chilly! Hostess disappeared and no one checked on us for awhile so we re-​seated ourselves to another booth.
2. I ordered the batter fried shrimp with tomato bisque soup and rice pilaf. The shrimp was okay. Nothing special. The soup was overly hearty for me. Tomato bisque is delicious in its simplicity… there were hard stale pieces of rice in my pilaf.
3. My husband ordered the pulled pork with slaw, rice pilaf, and fried onions. The pulled pork was good but very hearty also. Overly slathered in bbq sauce, in my opinion.
4. The only reason I gave this place one star was the service we received from the waiter. He was pleasant and attentive.

I think I’m being nice by giving a 2. The food was a big disappointment. We got a Spanish omelette that was nothing special. It had shredded beef inside with salsa. We also got pancakes, eggs, and sausage. The pancakes weren’t very
good and they were very skimpy on the eggs and sausage. The service was not that great but got better after i tired to track the waitress down for a refill on my coffee. I think she got the hint and started being more receptive to us. Not a great experience. I won’t be coming here to eat again. Too expensive for the quality of food.

Always good service when you come here. Although last few times we come they are out of some of their greatest beers such as the red ale! Every time I eat here in the evenings on weekends, etc the music is so LOUD that I can’t hear anything. It’s hard to enjoy a beer and nice meal with awkward music blaring loudly overhead, maybe once the bar gets going later in the night it would be better. Even when you eat here during the day the music is a little loud.
Food portions are generous and its okay. It’s not the best but not the worst. I really enjoy their lunch specials the most. 5.99 lunch meals with a little beer is really good deal. If you want to add a soup or salad its 2.99 more.
There are TV’s everywhere if you are into watching sports and they have good happy hour deals as well.
It’s a good place to try, I would recommend the beer sampler!

This place is really comfortable on slow nights. It’s great to come in, grab a beer, and catch the (insert sport) game.
The food is really good. Eat the cream cheese egg rolls. Tip: They’re way better when you’re drunk, but they’re great regardless!
The wings (bbq) are also good but are really only worth it during happy hour.
After having almost all the different types of drinks (I may be Irish but I stop drinking when I turn into Seamus the Leprechaun), I can say that they’re all pretty good (this is excluding the mainstream, pre-​bottled ones). I will say that I am not a fan of their Hefeweizen because it just seems too watery.
The staff is really friendly. Great gals to joke around with and that alone is worth coming back to. The atmosphere is really social. Every time I have gone I have ended up talking to random strangers about sports or beer or whatever and made a couple facebook friends in the process.
I gave it ⁴⁄₅ stars because sometimes the music can be wayyyyyy too loud (this coming from the guy who listens to Slipknot at full blast), some of the drinks are too watered down, and because not everything is worth buying (regardless of taste) unless it’s happy hour. But other than that it’s a great place to go.
Good luck and may the fork be with you!

Expect a large quantity of «OK» food at a reasonable price. There’s an extensive beer list and the ambiance is that of a typical sports bar.
Strip mall location
Flaky service
So-​so ambiance
The food is average

It was okay, of the beer flight that I ordered I enjoyed Route 66 and it was the only one I finished. I also ordered the Ahi Tuna appetizer and it was like tapas style, small 4 pieces for 9 bucks, I get more at sushi places. Friendly and attentive service and I enjoyed the outdoor seating, your not forced to listen to the Karaōke singing going on inside. ;)

My review will speak only to the Cucamonga Brewing Company (CBC) Beer, their happy hour and bar area. Me and my best friend were in the area and decided to pay this place a visit. We were looking to drink local and try new beers without reading any reviews.
It was happy hour and the place was half empty for a friday at 5:00 pm. So we just walked up to the bar and ordered a couple of pints. The bar area was occupied with regulars but they kept to themselves. The female bartender was pleasant and left us to enjoy our beers. After two beers, we closed out our tab and went somewhere else for dinner.
Here is the 411: The CBC has a happy hour monday through friday from 3:00 — 6:00 pm. During happy hour the CBC pints are $ 3.50 and normally they are $ 4.50. They serve a route 66 honey blode, highway hefewizen, peach wheat, cpeak pale ale, jacked up red, six shooter ipa. The CBC also hosts great beers like North Coast, Green Flash but I recommend sticking to CBC ales because they are that good. I highly recommend having the IPA because it is very tasty and hoppy.
On a side note, on thursday form 6:00 pm — midnight only, CBC ales are only $ 2 bucks. Talk about being a baller on a budget. I will definitely be coming here again and trying out their other beers.

I have been to ALL the different names that have been here and nothing changes.
Horrible service, horrible ambiance, it never changes. If they want a place to stay here they need to get better service espcially when walking into the place. There is never nobody greeting you once you walk past the bathrooms. You stand there waiting and waiting.
This should be one of the best places to go in Rancho but i rarely think about going here and it should be the 1^st place you want to take a visitor out of town but its just not happening.
I ordered the bacon burger with the cheese skirt. The meat was way overcooked and actually burnt on one of the sides, WTF. it was good but could have been great.
My wife got a salad and found 2 hairs in it.
We have given this place many chances but i think this was the last time :-(

Great beer and tasty food. Portions are sizeable. For the beer lovers: Try the Honey Blonde or the Peach Wheat. Foodies: Try the mac n cheese and the Garlic Cheese toast. Brought my local friend here after telling him I’ve been wanting to try the place (I’m not yet a local) and he’s decided this may become our regular «go-​to». I wouldn’t say this place is good for a really tight budget, but the portion sizes tend to balance out the cost. ($ 3.50 for Garlic Cheese Toast = 4 Large Slices of Texas Bread cut into 8 slices of toast!)
And for the sports fans: HUGE screen plus several well-​placed televisions.

My feelings with Cucamonga Brewing are quite mixed. On one hand the beers aren’t all that bad. With flavor, composition, carbonation and the like, it’s nice to taste freshly made beer. While I’d say going to a brewery that focuses on being a brewery first (and not a restaurant secondary) may be the best option, there’s no local brewery in and around Rancho Cucamonga other than within, at Cucamonga Brewing Co.
Of course since the brewery is, a brewery, the food component is lacking. The menu is very large for a homegrown restaurant and brewery. Food isn’t bad but isn’t exceptionally great, as it’s very average.
So go for the beer (which I’d give 4 stars) over the food (which gets two-​and-​a-​half, at best.)

First things first. I have to give props to whoever did the hiring. The waitresses/bartender’s were really nice and pretty easy on the eyes as well.
The food is average. I thought they could give you more than 5 pieces of tuna with the appetizer. The chips and salsa were good and the entrees were maybe a step higher than TGIF.
We came on a Friday night and there was a band playing. The band was a little too loud and the singers voice was annoying. The only reason this place is getting 4 stars is the beer. In my opinion if your going to be a Brew Co then your beer needs to Hold-​It-​Down. I think that they do a nice job with the taste and selection of different beers. From the blonde ale to the darks, they all tasted good to me. I believe the food/​atmosphere make this a 3 star place. But I will give them a +1 star bump because of the good beer and nice service.
