My husband and I went here on a whim, expecting a typical brewery with average burgers and beer, but it was more like if a brewery and Gordon Ramsay had a baby. The service (Sean and Austin) was not only attentive and friendly but educational. The descriptions of the beer was totally on point—everything tasted exactly as described (and the descriptions sounded so tasty). I also don’t drink and really appreciated that they have multiple Non-alcoholic options that I hadn’t tried before. The menu is hefty with something for everyone, but the ticket time was surprisingly good. I got the crab sandwich and my hubs got the 101 burger. Everything was literally so good, and I don’t say that lightly. They also gave our dog a free healthy meal that included a perfectly cooked over medium egg that I couldn’t replicate myself—I repeat: THAT WAS THE DOG BOWL and it was FREE. This place is great for a family or date night. Just do it so we can make sure UoB stays in Vacaville for good!

Fun Atmosphere, Great Beer Selection, and Solid Food University of Beer in Vacaville is always a good time! It’s the perfect spot to hang out with friends, grab a drink after work, or watch a game. The atmosphere is lively but relaxed — upbeat music, lots of TVs, and a nice indoor-outdoor setup that works great when the weather’s nice. Their beer selection is huge, with tons of local and craft options on tap. The staff is always happy to give recommendations, and I love being able to try something new every time I go. The food is pretty solid too — classic pub-style bites with good portions and flavor. I especially like the wings and loaded fries. It can get busy on weekends, but the service stays friendly and the vibe never feels rushed. Overall, it’s a great spot to unwind and enjoy good beer, good food, and good company.

35 craft beers on tap and a tasty food menu. There's a mixed drink menu and mug club for the locals. Nice atmosphere with a friendly and accommodating staff. The counter is excellent for watching sports. Plenty of parking and easy to access off highway 80 in Vacaville.

This place made regulars out of us in no time! The great service the first time and the drunken pig fries got us coming back, and it was the best decision we made. We have tried almost half the menu at this point, and we have yet to have a single miss, some INCREDIBLE cooking here. All the servers went out of their way to learn our names and say hi every time we go in, the beers on tap rotation are fantastic, and the environment here is wonderful (and a phenomenal place to watch football if you like sports) This is the best spot in Vacaville that we have found and it isn't close!

Very accommodating and attentive staff. We were greeted right away, and able to bring our pups on the patio. One of the perks is that dogs eat free. We had a variety of stage mention options when it came to food—all items were delicious. I got the BBQ Pork Mac—so good. I had to take some to go for lunch the next day. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant for food and beverages.
