We have been coming to Kauai for over 15 years, and this is the one must-stop location that we always go to. The beer is delicious (especially the IPA), and the food is excellent. The service is always nice, especially if you order at the bar. Remember, folks, this is Hawaii....slow down. If it takes 10 minutes for a drink... more

I am sad to see all the bashing of Waimea Brewing Co. that has been posted. We ended up at this place due to a suggestion from our resort concierge after running up to enjoy the vistas of Waimea Canyon (beware of the potholes). It was late (almost closing) and by most island standards, it was amazing to find this... more

We debated a long time if we were going to stop by this place. Eventually we decided to go. The food was suprisingly better than we thought it was going to be. The beer was good, I had the sampler. Service was okay, the only problem was there were flies flying around what seemed like only our table. I don't... more

A beautiful setting, the food tasted just fine (Kalua Pig Plate), but you can get tastier Kalua Pig with bigger portions for less price all over the Island. My biggest complaint is the service. Absolutely terrible! Details below, but I couldn't help but feel this is a tourist mill and they really didn't care one way or another. I'm a... more

terrible food, lousy service, go somewhere that cares about quality. This place must be making it by ripping off tourists. more

After many years of visiting Kauai, the Waimea Plantation Cottages are always a must see (we love the grounds). We decided to eat at the brew pub... it was an awful experience. The service was extremely poor and not very friendly. Our party of six all ordered drinks from the bar (including their own brew) plus meals; food was ok,... more

We went to Waimea Brewing Company on a tip from a guide. It was evident from the time we talked to the hostess that they had no intentions of serving us. They had an excellent band playing, so we went to the bar to get a drink. We waited ten minutes at the bar before someone acknowledged any of the... more

Wife and I found this to be a convenient lunch stop on way back from canyon from the guide books. It was rather disappointing. Even with several services on duty, service was very poor -- had to track him down to get the check. Food was okay, but nothing to write home about. It seemed to be very popular with... more

Tasty!

On several occasions we have stopped by Waimea Brewing for lunch, and for the most part we have been pleased. On this mid-day visit we ordered the kalua pork sandwich, the kalua pork nachos, and shrimp. Everyone was happy with their meals, both in terms of the quality and quantity of the food. We also ordered 2 different beers, which... more
