Temescal Brewing

I found this brewery through the eventbrite website during their Oktoberfest celebration. I was pleasantly surprised at how cute and cozy this little venue is. The beer is really good and I love that they have great events happening every week and its a different theme every night and good music. The menu items are tasty too! I heard the owner "sharing" with a customer that they have different pop up trucks that they show case as well on certain nights and food specials. I live closer to Lake Merritt but, I will most certainly stop in and lend my support to this really cool spot. The vibe is really chill and inclusive also the staff is friendly. Stop in and ask the owner Brandon to recommend a good beer then buy a six pack to take home. Cheers!

Good brewery in Oakland with outdoor sitting beer garden style. Their patio offers a casual atmosphere which I really liked. They have affordable prices and the beer I had was great (Hazy IPA and Pils). They got various styles on tap and cans. Great brewery to try out, friendly staff. Food is also served here.

Temescal Brewing is one of my favorite breweries to visit in the East Bay. Like lots of places, the beer is good. They have a more interesting selection of beers than I find at most places. The food trucks out front are excellent. The decore is miles ahead of anyone else as is their bathroom game. This winter, for example, it was transformed into a winter resort getaway right in the middle if the city! There were tinsel trees, signs showing them as a “ski village, and even a ski check WITH SNOW SKIS! Staff is friendly and patient. The bathrooms are large, very clean, and supplied with extras like lady products, breathe mints, hand wipes, fentanyl test strips, and Narcan (can’t be too safe). Before you leave, get some beer for takeout. If you choose to give a thumbs-up 👍🏽 or not, I hope you found my review helpful!

Perfect place to chill in the sun with a tasty beer. They have a great selection, you can sample them too. Winter edit: they have a super cool (though heated) tent in their outside area, it feels like being outside bur cozy and warm. Very friendly service.

Making some amazing hazy beers. Great outdoor space. The fun pink-colored vibe of the whole place is unique and refreshing. Awesome food trucks every time we come.

What a cool brewpub! Dig the ski chalet vibe, great outdoor area, and the beer. The Temescal Roast is perfect for a cult night. I'll be back for sure!

Had the Gauva Pilsner today at Temescal Brewing with food from Alma y Sazon, vegan taco truck fare. The torta, taco & flautas were delicious.

I love this dog friendly brewery. They have a great beer selection with friendly service, matched with a comfortable and fun environment. The outdoor patio is awesome and provides plenty of additional seating with easy access to great food from food trucks. FYI the put a tent outside to help keep you warm on those chilly winter nights.

Great Beer Garden for having an Oakland Original Beer from local brewery Temescal. Also, grab a big can of your favorite style and take it home.

The burger was good. The beer too The outdoor seating is nice and spacious

Love the vibe at Temescal any time of day, any season. All the bartenders are kind and warm. The beers are fresh and cold. The atmosphere is welcoming and inviting. Been coming here for years and plan to make many returns.

Temescal Brewing was founded in 2016 on the values of Quality, Community & Vibes. During a recent trip to Oakland, we visited on a Saturday and I legit felt the good vibes and community whilst enjoying a flight in their beer garden. I saw with my own eyes several groups of friends happily congregating, and some even brought their toddlers and canine companions. Service was friendly and of the four beers I sampled, my faves were the Pils and POG Seltzer. I tried to go back for seconds on the seltzer but unfortunately they were tapped out. Should you find yourself in the area and you’re a fan of beer, I recommend a visit to Temescal. Cheers!!

I got the michelada which was pretty good, they have a cute outdoor patio as well, on a nice day it is great for enjoying a few beers w friends.

Lovely place! Limited seating inside and more places outside in their beer-garden section but there will be a wait and a line ;) We just grabbed couple chairs and sat by the bar. Place is nice and neat and service is friendly! Good selection of beers well priced $5-8 for a pint! Free popcorn which is always cool ;) Choices of non alcoholic drinks available which comes in handy when you're 7mo prego :P They did have fresh catch today on Sunday (crab feast) but we didn't eat. Lots of places to eat nearby so good location overall.

Definitely one of the better brewery additions to Oakland over the last couple of years. They make very flavorful beers (usually leaning hard on the hops) and have a huge patio space by which to enjoy them. The pastel interior with an ever evolving play list makes for a great place to have an after work drink with co-workers.

It's a good brewery in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland. The beer garden has plenty of seating with the heaters close together. I had a 32 ounce mug of Oktoberfest beer, which I enjoyed. They host food trucks. But, you can bring your own food.

The facility was bright and open and there was a huge beer garden that looked great. The employees were friendly and efficient. I only went with 4 stars though because I wasn't a fan really of any of the beers. They weren't bad beer, they were good. They just weren't as good as some nearby other options. But if in the area, it's totally worth a stop imo.

great little space to grab a beer with friends on the patio. Super relaxed environment, rotating food trucks, and a good patio. the inside space is a little sterile for my taste, the chairs aren't super comfy either. Glad they're still here when we lost so many great brewing companies during the pandemic! Staff is friendly and pricing is pretty on point for the neighborhood they're in.

Food and drinks were great, but don't expect decent service unless you're a regular or know one of the two male bartenders with long hair. I only tipped because I have friends in the industry. Will not be returning. Disregard this review if you're a regular or have a friend who knows the male bartenders

Was looking forward to trying this place again (it's been a few years). As I was about to enter, there was someone at the front looking as if she was going to check IDs. Instead she aggressively and rudely informed me that there was a private event and all the tickets had we sold. I'm fine with the place being closed, but you can be nice about it.
