A bad start turned good. We arrived 25 minutes till 9 pm Friday night, 25 minutes before the last call for food (according to their policy). We walked in to sit down, not realizing that you have to be seated by a host, we were greeted by a frustrated host who explained that there was a line waiting to be sat and they are simply too busy to seat any more tables now, but I was welcome to go to the bar to order a beer... We drove an hour and a half to have dinner there and of course some beer but It wasn't pleasant to hear that I couldn't eat now after that drive, esp when it was clearly still within their timeline. So, of course I expressed frustration of my own then walked off, debating just leaving to eat somewhere else. After a few more minutes the host walked over to my wife and said that someone had just canceled their place in line and that they would seat us. I was admittedly angry about how that situation was handled but at least we were able to sit and order food so thank you. Thank you staff for stepping up to make a first impression. The food was amazing! (Although the margarita pizza was literally just a standard cheese pizza with strips of basil leaves... Smh) and the beer was perfection as always.

Drove 2 hrs one way, waited for 2.5 hrs. on a Mon afternoon. The first sip of Pliny the Younger told me it was worth it! Great vibe. Met locals and folks who had flown in from places afar. Friendly service, good food! Nick was wonderful! I'm ready for the next year. :-)

World class beer venue. A bit of Mecca I’d say. Russian River brew some incredible beers, including benchmarks for certain styles. They have a large range of beer styles on offer. They also do great pizza. Their prices offer impressively good value. Nice venue. Can get quite busy at times so plan accordingly. I really hope to get back here some day because the place really is something special.

Food was good. Service was excellent but the beers were disappointing. This place was a long time bucket list destination for me but the tasting the beers on the California ales flight ($15) were not worthy especially the lighter ones. Even Pliny the Elder was flat amongst several others. Wish I could've tasted the Younger but not available.

Is this a family friendly brewery?

Ika NC | Aug 25, 2019
Matt Harris | Aug 25, 2019

Best during the daytime for families, with little ones it can be a bit hectic later in the evenings. It is a great atmosphere and totally fine for kids but the more crowded it gets the more toddlers to tweens may feel trapped.

I have "2" gift cards from Russian River. How do I find out the value of them? These were given to my husband who recently went into assisted living.

Donna Drolet | Aug 24, 2021
Louis Causley | Aug 24, 2021

There should be a number you can call on the card that will have you enter the pin on the back of the card. If not, you can always go to the brewery and have them check. Cheers and hope you enjoy the Brewery

There are quite a few hotels downtown Santa Rosa that are close to the brewery. I would probably recommend Googling it to see what is available when you want to visit.

Sure, there camp sites along the Russian River. Enjoy!

Will RRBC send a case of beer to another state? I want to send my nephew a case of Phiney the Elder or younger. He's over 21 but lives in Idaho. Don't think they get it there.

Susan Smith | Aug 25, 2019
Bill Newbold | Aug 25, 2019

I don't think so, due to ABC rules. But you should call the brewery to be sure.

What time do I need to get in line Monday morning to get some Pliney the Younger and have lunch.

Karen Fischer | Aug 25, 2018
Gee Barger | Aug 25, 2018

From their website:. We have made some positive changes which reduced wait times and kept the line moving, albeit slowly, but better than years past! There is now a 3 hour/3 Younger maximum to ensure that our guests will get in sooner. This new policy has cut wait times by up to 4 hours on the first weekend! But still plan on waiting especially if you are coming on a weekend, sometimes up to 8 hours. And if it rains, as it generally does in February, we will be forced to close our outdoor patio reducing our available seating. There are 2 things we simply cannot control: the weather, and how many people will show up to our pub in February. Our pub's capacity is 135 people (at least that's what the sign on the wall says!). Younger is served in a 10oz. glass with a maximum of 3 per person. We are bound by law to promote the responsible consumption of alcohol and may NOT serve anyone who is obviously intoxicated. This beer is only available for on-premise consumption.

Are you closed for fire

Mel Herrera | Aug 25, 2018
Rob Snyder | Aug 25, 2018

They are collared today, Monday for the fire.

Do u ship beers to individual buyers in other states.

Mike Farrier | Aug 25, 2018
Lunchbox Grenade | Aug 25, 2018

No I don't believe so. Although in general the beer can be shipped. So if you have a friend local they can send it at least.
