Captain Fatty's Brewery

Cool environment. Friendly staff. Good beer, though I didn't have time to sample them all.

What a fantastic place! I had chance to spend some time trying the different beers available, no bad finds! The whole Team is very friendly, absolute fantastic vibe I did not see the time going! I will be back, should it be for food or drinks of course !

Outstanding beer and amazing pizzas by Santa Barbara Woodfire!! The environment is super nice, the music is great, and the pizzas on the weekends, starting on Friday night, are terrific!!!!! They are a local family business, and it is super cool to see all of them working and helping to make the business successful. First time here, and definitely we will be back!

My husband and I really enjoyed our first visit here. The bartenders were really nice and welcomed us. The beer selection is great - they have all kinds of different beers. There’s definitely a favorite for everyone. I really enjoyed their own brewed Kölsch. We highly recommend a visit

A very pleasant brewery, clean, and with tasty beer. The bartender is very friendly and welcoming. I especially enjoyed the Calypso and Backstreet Boysenberries beer varieties. I highly recommend visiting!

#RAWFotografia #LocalGuides I should remember to write down names, the two gentleman running the brewery were spectacular. One was named Jimmy? They were funny, engaging, and very knowledgeable, not only about their own beer, but beers from other places as well. Their pride in the product really shone through, they were engaging hosts. the place seems to be located in an industrial business area, which lends to the uniqueness of this place. They have a huge television that they can find almost any show in for you, and plenty of seating for the large quantities of people this place attracts. It is easy to see why so many people seem familiar with the place, if we lived a little closer we would visit here often!

The “Limber Minds” has to be one of my all time favorites. The “Generations” bourbon barrel Stout is fantastic! Flavor for days without the bitter aftertaste so many bourbon barrel aged beers can have. Fun crew, relaxed atmosphere and quiet enough to have a conversation without being too quiet. Love it here. Evan and Jordan are great hosts as are the rest of the staff. Enough dark beers to make me happy yet still a deep selection of IPA’s and sours for every taste.

We always enjoy our time at Captain Fatty’s. Great atmosphere, great people, brewista crew is awesome, beverages are fantastic, and they have some great food options as well. Dog friendly, kid friendly and lots of room to gather for any occasion.

Captain Fatty's new location is amazing. It's across the parking lot from the old spot but it makes a difference. It is super chill and the staff is super friendly. It had been a while since the last time we had come here so we were super stoked for the new brews. Hazy Shades of Blue is super delicious along with the rest of their selection. There's a beer type for whatever taste.

It's one of our favorite places to go. Love that they now sell samsara wine. The beer is good 🤙🏽

Fatty's continues to be one of my favorites here in town. Great beer and service. They just replaced some of their seating and tables, so they are investing in maintaining a nice atmosphere.

Beer review This brewery is dog friendly and you can bring your own food. I have been here 4 times now in the past year, and their hazy IPA (different one each time) is absolutely delicious. Very creamy, hoppy, and juicy. It is one of my favorite breweries for hazy. Definitely will come visit Everytime in in town.

We have been here several times when we visit Santa Barbara. I am not a beer drinker but my husband & in-laws are. The ambiance is nice and they have pizza. We went last Sunday late afternoon and the placed was packed. It’s the first time we have been where there is a band and a party. The band was super loud and glad the brewery had outdoor seating & available seats. My granddaughter was with us and they had games like jenga to keep her and us occupied. I wish that they had more options for non-beer drinkers.

Cute brewery with plenty of beer options, along with a few seltzers. Everything was good. 4 stars as the outdoor seating is a bit dated and upkeep is needed. Friendly staff. Not a lot of parking options.

I'm a bit of a beer snob which forces me to go to a lot of places to try local and craft beers that most other places don't serve. I found the beer to be satisfactory, other than I prefer darker beers. It's definitely the typical hipster brewery but everything was clean and the bartender was polite. I like the overall industrial look with visible brewing tanks and the barrel tables outside on the "patio" are nice. Long tables inside with people playing cards or just socializing. Quiet comfortable and warm feel. We were just passing through on a road trip and it served its purpose of giving us somewhere to kill an hr before dinner and drink beer. My only criticism would be, napkins could have been made available. I just needed one to keep my glass from sweating everywhere and our seats outside were a little wet from the light misty rain. I don't mind wiping off my own seat if I want to be the person who sits outside so can't complain about the wet seats lol. To his credit, when I asked for a napkin and none were available, he gave me his own bar towel.

Had the Tropic Thunder Sour. Mighty tasty. Very Refreshing. Outdoor seating. Flatbread Pizza was also delicious.

We are semi-regulars there, and the pizza folks know us and are amazing. We like the beer too. We had a recent experience with one of the brewery owners that left a bad taste. I really don’t want to get into detail but she really needs to find a different system for restocking the fridge in there that doesn’t include leaving you engine running while illegally parked next to a table of eating customers for 30 minutes while they choke on your exhaust fumes and your kids climb in and out of your car. Totally oblivious. At least she apologized when we finally got up the nerve to say something. Oops. Guess I got into detail.

Been a member for 4 years, Super inconsistent with food, we drive up to Goleta to get pizza and beer and the last 10+ times we've gone they have closed the food early or there just hasn't been anything. Will not be renewing our membership sadly , hope they get it together.
