Barrelhouse 101

We were passing through town and needed to stop for food and this place was pretty close to where we stopped for gas. The food is amazing! So are the drinks. My partner got a flight of dragonsmilk beers and I got a flight of ciders. Service was fast and friendly. Absolutely love this place and would recommend it!

Listen to me. If you do NOTHING else in this beautiful city PLEASE check this place out. I came down here for a conference and this was on the, hey check it out, list. This is not a casual check it out beer place. (Though casual dress is the norm)This is a full blown restaurant that is also a full on beer spot. They serve all the alcohol and have a bartender just waiting to serve you. Their food is NOT nibbles at the bar it is overloaded deliciousness that you take across state lines to bring to your family and friends! Everything I've eaten has blown my mind. From the pretzel and jalapeño cheese, to the bacon Mac n Cheese with onion crisps on top, to the California cheese steak sandwhich that gives the Philly a little run for its money. You are whole heartedly welcome in advance for the suggestion because I know your tastebuds will be screaming it for you❣ Enjoy your stay and your eats.

I ordered the BLAT and a sampler flight of Feeling Them Colors, Figueroa Mountain Lizard's Mouth, Figueroa Mountain Davy Brown Ale (LtR). The sandwich was toasted well with a sufficient amount of bacon and avocado. The salad was a little overdressed, but you can't go wrong with the large shaved parmesan. The staff was really friendly and Victoria was a great bartender. She let me know they had pints to-go so I ordered beer to take back to my hotel. I may be back before the end of my trip because the vibe was so chill here and they had a lot of beers on tap.

I recently had my daughters graduation dinner there in the backroom they offer for large parties. The staff was very accommodating. Service was amazing thank you Whitney and Joby! . Food is great and was more than enough for my guests. Not to mention the wide variety of beer and cocktails was perfect again something for all my guests to enjoy. If you are going to have a celebration for your family and friends Barrelhouse 101 needs to be seriously considered.

A fantastic craft brew house in downtown Ventura with a gigantic variety of amazing craft brews on tap. The burgers, wings and truffle fries are terrific. The fried shrimp looked crisp and delectable. They even have a burger on the menu for your dog. One of the best parts was the bar staff that was open to steering me to some more rare new brews to try and each one was as delicious as the next. There is ample parking and they are following open outdoor covid dining protocols with social distanced tables. Additionally when I went the owner was doing a charity event for the Ventura police K-9 unit. Super chill vibe and I look forward to going again soon
