Figueroa Mountain Brewing Co.

Passing through this part of town we hit some traffic BUT I happened to look to east side of the freeway and saw the Fig Mountain Logo. I’ve been to the Buellton and Santa Barbara locations but I have no idea it was as far down as West Lake. We decided to exit and find our way back to check it out. As always, Figueroa Mountain tap rooms never disappoint. Great beer, kind grinds and decor of an old SLO county barn, this locations was full of friendly patrons and helpful staff. We tasted a few of the newer releases... one was legit and we got a Crowler to drink at home. “Bruts are made for walking” is a 7.1% IPA that was seriously smooth. We wished we got another because everyone we shared it with loved it too. We Also walked away with the 8th Anniversary and a 6 pack of the hard to find in So Cal Mosaic. Although Fig is no longer a small town brewery, I still support their great beer. I’ll be back.

Drinks, vibes and music were great. Our female bartender was very kind and hospitable. She made a great cosmo. Will come back.

We didn't have any food today, but we really enjoyed our beers (Mosaic and Point Conception). Brandon was fab behind the bar! Great sports on the TVs. I also loved the personalized mugs that the club members have....sit at the bar to check them out.

Love coming here with our dogs. The staff are young, friendly, and keep the vibe relaxed. The outdoor seating area is perfect for the dog-friendly setup, and even in winter the covered patio stays warm. We always order the tots with beer cheese—it’s a must. I’ve tried the fish tacos, sliders, salads, and lately the burgers—all consistently good. The beer list is solid, and when I did drink, the team was always happy to offer samples to help me choose. Reliable, easy, and always enjoyable. We’ll keep coming back.

On our way to Ventura from SD and stopped here for lunch. Beer was delish - so drinkable (we had blonde and brown) and I devoured the fish tacos (chipotle sauce is so good - and bonus freshly pressed soft taco shells) and hubs loved the smash burger with parm Tots. Next time I want to try the crack wings. Delish food and beer for a reasonable price and a great way to break up the drive.

We hosted Welcome Drinks the night before our wedding at Figueroa Mountain Brewing and it was fantastic. They were very easy to coordinate with and the staff was exceptional throughout the night. They had good drinks, good food, and plenty of space for all of our guests. We would highly recommend them for anything from a quick beer to your larger get-togethers!

The pork sliders were delicious. Have had fig beer for years and it's solid but even better on tap and with good ambiance. Had the weizenbock for first time today and it was great, tastes like something from north coast 👍

Great location for a beer, some good food, and some sports. It’s not as “intense” sports as a Buffalo Wild Wings night out. The servers were really great but the bartender was a bit overly friendly and loud. We sat at a table and constantly heard him at our table all night long which was a bit annoying over the course of a 3 hour football game. He seems nice but was just too loud. VictorB

I’ve been here a few times now and I really do enjoy the atmosphere especially outside! The food here is always delicious but it is still essentially pub food for Mastros prices. I’ve always had good beer here too. I really suggest getting the nachos!

Had beer and nachos last night. Very good service and atmosphere. Lots for 2 of us to eat. As a Canadian tourist, I enjoy local beer where I stay.

Food is great and so are the beers. Great place for happy hour definitely. Service was a bit slow also considering it wasn’t too crowded. Food can be pricy, but it is Westlake. I would come back again.

Trivial review, having never been to the brewery, but wanted to make two points. 1. Hiker’s High, their non-alcoholic hazy IPA, is a tasty light IPA. I’m fairly new to non-alcoholic beer, but this is the best I’ve tasted so far 2. The can it comes in is attractive but the design has an annoying flaw. It has a vertical seam immediately left of the pop top, and with every sip you feel the seam on your bottom lip. I’m old but don’t recall ever feeling the seam on a can of beer I was drinking. Please fix.

I like the venue and the vibe of the place. I was there on a Saturday night and it wasn't crowded or too busy. The prices for food and beer are comparable to other places nearby, but none of the beer flights I sampled really stood out to me as something I'd want to specifically come back for. You know what I mean: that 'one' drink that you can't get elsewhere with the unique, new taste. Everything was clean, service was prompt, and although we only got appetizers, the food was fine. I knocked off another star because of the way they closed out my tab. They added the gratuity on my food and drink itemized receipt, so that was already baked into the total. Then they brought another, final receipt after running my card (the one you sign) and that has another tip line. It's a little bit of a disingenuous move because our party noticed the second tip line, but most people may not catch it and end up tipping twice.

Love the look of this place but unfortunately the food and service fall flat. That being said if you are coming for a beer at the bar I will say they have good beers.

I recently visited Figueroa Mountain Brewing Company and had a rather mixed experience. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken strips, which came out very dry, with the dry rub clumped together on the strips. I ended up sending them back and getting them comped by the restaurant. My wife ordered the brisket sando and said it tasted like an ashtray and was not good. She thinks they might have used liquid smoke to get the flavor on the brisket. Our friend ordered cheese fries and ended up just getting regular fries because the waitress forgot that part of his order. On a positive note, my wife ordered the Guava Point Conception IPA, and although it came out kind of warm, she said the beer was actually pretty good. Overall, I don't think I would give this place another try as a restaurant. I think I will stick to buying the beers at the store only.

Great atmosphere with indoor/outdoor seating. Beer was average, food pretty bland. Fish tacos with very minimal finish, poke had good flavor but mostly tomato’s and cabbage.

I go out once every other month with a friend, been here three times, never again. Walked in, sat down at the bar on a Friday night, ordered a beer at the bar, then told I need to go to the patio. Seems they were having a corporate event without a sign at the front door telling people the dining area was closed. A bartender, a young intimidating blondish man, told me I had to go to the patio. Something seems off here because who closes their restaurant to the public on a Friday night, the most profitable night of the week for a bar unless the business is struggling.
