They've been making chalet beer since before craft brews were a twinkle in your eye, and the sweeping view of Ocean Beach , makes you want to cozy up with a creamy entree and one, or five, drinks. Read more

Brian Strauss

Way better than I expected. Good bar & grill American menu. Simple classics. Cozy and comfortable even during a Giants playoff game. I suspect that the weekend day drinking scene is a little wilder.

Sam Downie

So if @kevinrose likes this then, oh boy so do I @samdownie . Get the Fish & Chips , very tasty. To go with it try the V.F.W light beer . And do get a table by the window.

Beer 47

When available, the specialty German style beers , like Roggenbier, are excellent. On a sunny day, hang out on the back lawn and enjoy a cold craft beer and a view of the windmill .

Shawna Marie

Beautiful views from the windows. Their fish n chips is very good! Also they serve brunch on Sundays and it's amazing! Make reservations to guarantee a table!

Ocean Beach Bulletin

Check out the marker for the Gjoa, which was the first ship to sail the Northwest Passage and once lay aground in Golden Gate Park . http://bit.ly/npRWcn On the north side of the Chalet parking lot .

Damian Bayona

Views of the ocean are very nice but be warned about sitting next to the window, sun will roast you. Good sandwiches though at a $ premium for the views . Brewery on site.

Gus

Beer week: cioppino with red beer based salse and dungeness crab pairing with the same red beer ! AWESOME!

Melissa Anderson

What a view ! Nothing better than a window seat on a bright , beautiful sunny day. Loved the open faced crab melt .

Brooke

The host gave me her favorite corner table right next to the window. It definitely has wow factor views as long as it's not foggy!

Michelle D.

Get a window table and watch the waves. For brunch , try the corned beef hash !

Leah W.

I only ever come here after Bay to Breakers. Love their outside area and their bar is great!

Giant letdown in food presentation, freshness, quantity and flavor. Alright beer . Great views .

Cheapism

This brewpub features a 3-6-9 happy hour . It goes Monday-Friday 3-6pm and 9-close, and includes a menu of drinks and appetizers that are $3, $6, or $9. Read more

Every single door in this place slams shut with a terrific bang. Close them gently or you'll have a migraine by meal's end.

Sarah DeBerry

Thank you for having a power outlet under my seat in the bar table area. I really appreciated it!

Claudia A.

back patio . tons of babies on beach blankets on a nice day watching a live band that plays kids jamz. beer . they get it.

Amy B

If you bring kids eat at the Park Chalet and let them run around in the park .

Jennifer Khoshbin

The Park Chalet is in the back facing the park , the Beach Chalet us upstairs facing the ocean. Just FYI

Kai Tiura

Do not pass up the mussels in white wine , cilantro and garlic sauce with Spanish chorizo and grilled sourdough wedge. Incredible!

Kian Lavi

The view is awesome, and the cioppino was fantastic

Mark Dreger

Food is mediocre but the view is killer. Other than the Cliff House, this is the only restaurant facing Ocean Beach .

Randy Simes

Skip the wait and go right to the bar . Give the Presidio IPA a taste if you haven't already. If you time your visit with sunset it makes the experience even better.

Eric 吳道湘

Nice place to have an early dinner specially while the sun is setting. The local brew is not too bad either

Nelson Elhage

Great view out over the water, and pretty decent beer . Food wasn't bad, but was generally disappointing.

Rahmat B.

This is my first time in San Francisco. And after a lond walk through Golden Gate Park this is a nice place to end up and watch the sun set!

Ben Russo

Decent beers ! Get reservations if you want a table by the window for sunset .

Chloe Condon

Sit by the window at sunset for some amazing views !

Shasta Rocks

Prices listed here are incorrect, management won't honnor their old prices and admit they haven't updated in 3 years. Food is mediocre. At least good view , but you have to sit by the window.

Joseph Frazier

Loved the food, the wait staff and the View !

Blake Simmon

Definitely get the Beach Basil Ginger . By far the best drink of our entire 2-week stay here in San Francisco.

Robert Kalafate

After you visit here, check out the 'sister' Chalet at the Lake - Merritt in Oakland. Spishally happie hour and the Gondola!!

Elif Öngel

It has a nice view of pacific ocean

Alexander Winter

Awesome view , don't let them seat you in the sun in the afternoon, it will boil you!

Eli Hickox

Great spot to grab brunch after golfing at golden gate park

L Breezy ????

$22 for 2 very and I mean very small pieces of Steak & fries . Well the view of the Ocean was nice.

Gabriel Gilder

The spicy grain veggie burger is unique and tasty!

Emmanuel Hale

The clam chowder was really tasty, and the crab cakes were great, if a little small.

joe chickos

Put some hot sauce in your chowder , it'll change your life!

Sandra Cifo

Ciopinno and house salad are delicious!!!

Chuck Day

Order the flight of beers ! Amazing oceanfront location!
