East Cliff Brewing Company - Santa Cruz

This locally owned brewery is socially conscious and offers a diverse selection of beers to suit every palate! The fun dining options come from rotating food trucks and the nearby bakery, known for making the best tamales. With family-friendly evening events like trivia and karaoke, it’s a fantastic place to visit any day of the week! I absolutely love the patio.

I really enjoyed the games they have; it’s like a cozy, small-scale Dave and Buster's without the corporate feel. The staff was incredibly friendly, and it's refreshing to see businesses that support worthy causes. I definitely plan to return, especially to check out the outdoor space, which looked lovely! It’s spacious with plenty of tables and some inviting propane fire tables that seemed really cozy!

This is a favorite spot for my friends and me to relax and enjoy a few beers together. The staff is excellent, and the atmosphere is pleasant. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the beer selection could be improved. While it’s not bad, it's definitely not the best in town. Overall, it's a wonderful place to spend quality time.

Brewery with a great business model! Friendly staff and welcoming space. Bonus: each guest gets to help choose who they donate to!

Gotta say of every brewery that I've visited in Santa cruz I can 100% say that this is the most inviting and generally very quaint environment. They allow dogs and have trivia nights that I wasn't aware of when I went but the two female bar tenders who helped serve me had the best customer service I've had at any bar or brewery. In all I would highly recommend this location!
