Bear Republic is all about beer. It's good. However, the food is just average. I'd advise ordering the nice cheese and fruit plate, which comes with crusty bread and a cup of yogurt with honey. The beer goes well with that, and if you eat on the deck it's quite a pleasant experience. more

Let me get this out of the way: I love Bear Republic. Racer X is one of my top 5 beers anywhere. I expected to like this place. No, I expected to LOVE this place. I couldn't have been more wrong. For starters, it was very loud. Loud, with Karaoke. Really? A high end microbrew has to resort to karaoke... more

My overall rating is for the food and service, not the beer. To the bartender; I apologize for sitting at your bar and asking you to serve me. It won't happen again. I was hoping for tasty pub food and a nice light beer as I had to drive back to the Napa Valley after doing some business in Healdsburg.... more

We came here to try the beer sampler so I can't comment on the food. The beers here are phenomenal. We sat at the bar and the bartender was a bit snarky at first but with conversation, he lightened up. This is a great place to go if you want to do a little bit of beer tasting while in... more

The food was marginal at best, nothing seemed fresh. The service was lacking as well. Its like a bad version of Applebee's. Save your money and time by avoiding this place. more

We had been eating out at fancy restaurants for the past 13 nights and we were just plain old tired of "fuffy" food so we choose to come here. Great restaurant in downtown Healdsburg. We sat outside and enjoyed the wonderful weather. They do not serve alchohol here but a great variety of beers and wine wines. Our server was... more

Good family restaurant and fun to sit at the bar when without kids. Food is nothing really special but beer is great. more

Recently a group of us ate here after we were delayed and could not get our reservations at Zin. I was not disappointed. The Sonoma Burger was great and the lighter beer I had was tasty. The waiter was perceptive and polite but the service was a bit poky. Never mind, I will certainly visit again, next time I am... more

Very quaint micro brewery, really good brews. Food is okay, This is brewery first, modest eats place. Lived in Healdsburg so cool place to hang for food and value try Charcuterie & Zin REstaurants. Of course Cyrus is the best but for about $100 per person.....depends on what you are looking for. more
