Not really sure what the rave about this place is. The beer is decent I guess...nothing spectacular that I couldnt get at any other brewery. The thing that ticked me off was that they only have two cash registers, and they operate based on the cashier also being their bartender, which means they only have two bartenders. They also let people taste test the beers...AT THE CASH REGISTER... meaning a huge line forms while we all meaninglessly stare at a wanna be beer connoisseur. That system does not work. I waited 15 minutes for a beer...FIFTEEN MINUTES... They also had a party going on in which little kids were running around and into everyone. Ive got nothing against a nice party with happy kids everywhere but maybe not at a brewery while drinking beer. The one upside is that the place is pretty big and nicely set up, plus they have corn hole and other games like ping pong and a tiny shuffleboard. But probably wont be back.

One of those places I should really keep a secret because I love it and I dont want it to get overcrowded. This place feels like an escape from the city - its bright, its open, its quiet, the beer is good, the people are nice... theres not much more you can ask for. Lots of beers on tap, you can order a taster or a full one, and they even have snacks & food trucks to sustain your hunger over a day of drinking. My only gripe? Though its an unfair one, I wish they served something other than beer. While Im a big beer person, not all my friends are, which means Im limited in my ability to come hang here! Just need a glass of wine or champagne to appease the others...

Awesome beer, founders, and venue. And food! Which is smartly brought in via food truck - folks that actually specialize in food instead of beer-then-food. Bonus: games for adults and kids. The best part is they are likely to have the most diverse and experimental tap rotation in the city, as they will be featuring community-sourced beers. I love the staples, but there isnt much that is more satisfying than discovering a new flavor that does it for you.

I hated this place. Saturday afternoon and the entire place was filled with parents and children. No joke. Toddlers crawling on the tables. Kids running around. I understand adults needs somewhere to go thats kid friendly but the last thing I want is to be sipping a beer and hearing a baby lose its ish next to me because moma wouldnt let him have a sip of beer. Wouldnt come back.

Barebottle Brewing Company is a fabulous San Francisco Brewery with awesome beers, a super knowledgeable and friendly team and a great atmosphere. On some days/nights they have local food trunks which is a super fun way to enjoy yummy beer with some delicious food. I recommend Barebottle for any beer lovers wanting a cool, lively atmosphere and scene with great beer!

Great, wide open space with games, tables that you can reserve, and a quality food truck parked out front. The beer selection is solid...usually about 12 on tap, if not more, with variations on some great themes (red IPAs, wheat beers, etc.). They brew them clean, hoppy, funky...lots of variety. Be careful as the place can get chilly toward sundown.

Great spot, though not too convenient. Its a new brewery, but their beer is very solid, and I expect great things from them in the future. They have a great space, and lots of it - this is an awesome spot to hit on a weekend, particularly if they have a good food truck there.

Awesome modern industrial warehouse at the bottom of cortland brewing beer. Thats right a brewery in bernal. Beer was great, staff was great. So excited to have a place like this in the neighborhood. Food truck outside if ya get a little hungry. What more could you ask for?

The unicorn was the best beer I had on my trip in SF. The fact theyre open on Mondays when all the others arent is a good indicator of how good this place is. Great place to bring kids, tons of games and stuff to keep them busy while you get a buzz

Vibrant, fun atmosphere. They have cornhole, hand shuffleboard, ping pong and other games. Really great IPAs but not extremely impressed with their nitro stout. Overall, a place Ill be hanging out a lot more often.

Awesome addiction, I mean addition, to the neighborhood. Renovated industrial space now houses a brewery and open barnyard door bar. Great vibe, football on HD TVs and projection screen....food truck outside.

Awesome spot to go with a group of friends for a wide selection of beer. Open area thats dog-friendly, playful, and fun. They had a ping pong table, corn hole, and screens playing the Sunday football games.

Fantastic new microbrewery in SF. They have a great selection of beers, bar games and even an hourly tour of the brewery. Fun place to spend an afternoon.

Tasty beer. Open and well lit area. Food truck had great sandwiches. When I go to a brewery I dont want to hear kids screaming and dogs barking.

Always laid-back. The type of place where you can go on your own or bring your date, your best friend, your family. Dogs also welcome.
