Dunsmuir Brewery Works - Dunsmuir, California

Overall went here twice, on a Friday and Saturday night.

Friday night - ate out the street so we just ordered drinks although food smelled good, made note to try again. Beer was good not great. Also tried the root beer which they brew on site, it was also good not great. Live music and dog friendly environment which was a plus. Also of note, they still were serving food after 8, which is when they said they closed, so kudos to them. Rating the first night 4/5 stars

Saturday night. Arrived around 7:45 and was able to grab the last open table outside. Ordered a Salmon BLT, which was excellent, with a side Caesar and another root beer. Had same waitress as previous night, but no real banter or discussion. The other waitress there was more lively and engaging with the other patrons. Never received the root beer, when I questioned it on the bill she asked if I wanted it in a to go cup. Also no refill on water, despite it being in the 80s still (over 100 during the day). Maybe waiter was having a bad day, They were still serving food at 8:45 when we left, so a plus for extended hours. Score for second visit 2/5.

Overall 3/5 for inconsistency. Pretty good food and hope to luck out on the service side

Great beer, amazing food, friendly staff, and dog friendly ? They even brought a water bowl out for our dog. We love seeing the hops growing near our table when sitting outside. Lastly, the clam chowder on Friday nights is AMAZING! We will always stop here when traveling through or staying in the area.

Visiting the nearby state park and stayed in a local campground. While here we stopped at this place on a Friday evening for a couple beers and they had live music, which was pretty good.
So, as we had another night in the area decided to stop here for dinner. The elk burger and salmon blt were quite good and came quickly. However, the service was quite lackluster.

Fabulous place to eat! We sat outside in their garden area, all tables had umbrellas which was great as it started to thunder and rain but we could stay outside!

Food was amazing and staff was so friendly. They make their own microbrew and root beer. Glad we arrived in town before they closed. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone staying in town or passing through Dunsmuir!

I stopped into Dunsmuir Brewery Works for a Brat and Beer. They have the best warm German potato salad and picked up 2 extra German potato salad sides to take home!

I actually try and schedule my trips between Oregon and California along Interstate 5 when Dunsmuir Brewery Works is open just to stop in for a great meal!

Give Dunsmuir Brewery Works German Pub a try; they'll have you coming back for more!

They have a wonderful beer selection!

Do yourself a favor and give them a try!

It’s 2024. And every person I’ve ever talked to wants fries with their burger not mass produced potato chips or half decent salad or potato salad. Went there today and there wasn’t a soul in there, but I drove by yaks and pipeline and they were packed out. Also, the burger was bland and needed seasoning or at least salt.

Just had the clam chowder, heavenly best clam chowder I have had. We also enjoyed our favorite Pesto Muscles, delicious. On top of that I had the Mahi Mahi street tacos so good. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing, if you can sit outside enjoy the mountains. My husband had the Blood Sweat and Tears IPA, definitely a good one. This place is a hidden jewel stop if you get a chance.

The restaurant was cold, food was average at best, kinda pricey and they only had 2 of their own beers on tap. This is a brewery. The waitress was very friendly so I gave them a 2nd star for that.
