Always a treat to come here. The selection of small output beers is unequaled. The place has won the Best Burger in Sacramento before for good reason. This burger will be in your top 3 ever. Come hungry because it’s big, juicy and veerry tasty. A nap after it and 3 great beers may be needed 💤 Thank you for being consistently great ❤️🍺

Nice atmosphere. They had indoor & outdoor dining. Great beer selection. We split a burger & pretzel. It was the best burger I've had in a long time, and the pretzel was so soft and fluffy! Highly recommend 👌🏽

This is a top 5 burger EASY!!! The blend of chuck and brisket is the perfect combination of fattiness and depth of flavor. While the patty eats like butter, the vegetables deliver on the texture. Red onions are lightly sweet and texturally crisp. The tomato adds that great umami and moisture to an already juicy burger. I don’t know what they did to the pickles, but they are the best I’ve ever had! Super vinegar forward, acidic, and balanced the sandwich out nicely. Also, the brioche bun had a definite sweetness that played off of the rich burger nicely. The fries are okay but the burger is so good I don’t care. Pangaea Bier Cafe is serving up one of the best burgers in the state and I am not exaggerating.

Nice place to chill on a nice summer night. Staffs are friendly and food is delicious. I love their Chile Guave Stem (It's spicy!!) And their beer pretzel was soft and amazing, must try! They have indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is a bit hard to find - street parking only.

Out of all the amazing restaurants/brewpubs in the Sacramento area, "Pangaea Bier Cafe" has always been consistently good ever since they opened at this very popular Curtis Park hotspot dating back to 2008. And in that stretch of time, they have had a cult following of fans that rave about their "Pangaea Burger" being the #1 burger in all of Sacramento. But they're so much more than that as they carry a full-on menu including sandwiches, nachos, wings, tacos, and salads. And of course lots of local brews on tap, wine, and even coffee. Located directly on Franklin Blvd. and adjacent to 3rd Ave. in the Curtis Park neighborhood of Sacramento, this place is directly across the street from the iconic "Gunther's Ice Cream" parlor. Parking can be tricky but since you're more or less surrounded by lots of residential areas, you shouldn't have too much of a problem finding a spot to park. Maybe on a warm summer night where crowds in the dozens flock to ice cream could be a bit of an issue. Even though I've been here several times in the past, my most recent visit was on the afternoon of Sunday 10/17/2021 at around 2:30pm. Since the weather was still warm enough to dine outside, my friend and I decided to enjoy lunch on their sizable outdoor patio. The inside itself does offer ample seating as well as a small stage area when they offer live music. Do keep in mind that they are NOT open for business on Monday and Tuesday just in case you're wondering. As far as my lunch, I ended up going with their "Sunday Special" which was their "BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich" and a beer for the amazing low price of only $11.99 + tax. I paired this sandwich up with an iced cold "Cosmic Rays Modern Times IPA" beer and an ice water. My friend ordered their "Buffalo Hot Wings" with sides of Blue Cheese & Ranch sauce. We received a number, sat outside, and both our meals arrived within 10 minutes. Overall, my pulled pork sandwich was hearty, messy, and delicious. The heaping portion of coleslaw made it bigger than it actually was while the crisp pickles gave it a nice balance. The pork was seasoned to perfection while the sauce had that hint of sweet and spice packed into one. I did try one of my friends hot wings and these too had the perfect coating of sauce with a generous amount of meat on the wing itself. Oh, and my beer was excellent as Cosmic Rays always puts out a great tasting IPA. All in all, "Pangaea Bier Cafe" is an excellent restaurant/brewpub/coffee shop/live music venue packed into one. It is prime location in the heart of Sacramento with a nice diverse crowd here. When you factor in the location, eclectic ambiance, ideal indoor/outdoor seating, food portions & quality, top notch customer service, and decent prices, this place is 5-star worthy.

Love this place. The food was great...I loved the pretzel! The chicken sandwich was out of this world. There are pickled cucumbers that are spicy and so delicious. I had several great beers and I really thought the staff were super helpful and nice. I will be back!

One of the coolest craft beer pubs I have ever been too. It has this beer cave-public house-locals only vibe but in a very friendly way! Had a really good beer here a few Sundays ago. The staff is very nice and welcoming and they were all working hard to make sure every customer was comfortable and the place was kept tidy. Family friendly place right across from a very popular ice cream place. Loved the decor, the huge beer selection, and the very old timey huge wooden tables. Hope to be back soon.

Wow. What a cool place. Huge beer selection, even had ciders, which were delicious. We celebrated Father’s Day here and were able to get a table pretty fast. We arrived just as they were changing from brunch to lunch, so we waited for the lunch menu. They were busy and food took about 20 minutes. We had a fairly large group and everyone was so happy with their food. I didn’t get pics of everything, but the bacon Mac and cheese, wow! Rave reviews were also given for the chicken sandwich. Overall, this place is fantastic. Would definitely come here again.

Great location in an old Sacramento neighborhood surrounded by historic homes. Best hamburger I’ve ever had. The burger patty was super juicy and perfectly cooked medium in the middle and a slight browned crunch on the outside. Combined with a light and buttery bun, just the right amount of cheddar cheese and crispy bacon it all equals a perfect burger without any unnecessary distracting toppings. The fries were standard no frills variety that could have been better, but they were cooked fresh and were hot. Excellent selection of draft beer. A person can select from many beer types to include a few very dark and tasty options like the barrel aged one I chose. Refreshing to have more to choose from than just the over hyped IPAs that can be found everywhere.

When I first moved to Sacramento,I think I came here seven days in a row. The best sour beers and tap selection of any bier bar that I’ve ever been to. I believe it when they say this is one of the top 10 beer destinations in the world. Plus they won the Sacramento burger battle, bringing home the peoples choice belt and the judges choice belt. Anders, Austin, Reed and Mike (good luck at the new job Mikey) are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I love talking beer with them and I visit them at least three times a week. I am a Pangaea Bier Cafe patron for life.

Very friendly staff, good ciders and wine. Food was average. My burger was a lil charred and that was foremost flavor. Side salad had nice greens. Parking is scarce.
