ManRock Brewing Company — Restaurant in Grover Beach

We changed our adventure for the day and ended up here. It's in a small plaza area in the corner. Walking in, it is a little dark. But your eyes do adjust. It's a quaint brewery, with several different beers on tap.

We happened to be there on a Wednesday, which is their burger night and $2 off pints. I tried the Grapefruit Blonde, a pleasantly surprising and refreshing blonde beer. BF tried their unfiltered IPA, Beach Town. He quite enjoyed it. My second was the Stout with Oreo Cookies, which to brew this particular beer they used 100 lbs of Oreos! It was a good stout beer but I didn't necessarily taste the Oreo. I would still order it again though. BF's second beer was the Cherry Pit IPA. He liked it and said the cherry was just a hint and nicely done. His favorite though was the unfiltered IPA.

We didn't get the burger as we weren't too hungry but we did get the small order of garlic cheese fries. These were not a small order but they were so good we finished the whole thing.

The guy sitting next to us at the bar had ordered the burger and said they are really good burgers. Will have to wait until next time we are there on a Wed to try it.

They have a cool backyard with tables, a brick pizza oven, and stage. Summertime we were told they have bands.

We will be back with our...

How is this place still open?

Came in on a wed around 830p when there were maybe 10 people in the place, with two bartenders.

Sat down and ordered a water (had to go to a cooler to pour my own lol ok) while I looked over the beer and food menu. Set it down after a couple minutes. Waited for 15+ minutes after I set the menu down while listing to one guy who was WAY over served have an obnoxiously loud drunk conversation on his phone while watching the female bartender give shoulder massages to guys who I assume were regulars.....meanwhile the male bartender was chatting with people and checking his phone, not really worrying about whether or not I wanted to order anything.

Checked the time on my phone and just more than 20 minutes after I arrived without so much as a "can I get you anything?" I decided I didn't want to wait another hour for food, and left.

Should have paid attention to the signs as I walked in...dead during primetime....no atmosphere....no women...nobody under 45.....and that really says a lot when you share a parking lot with the largest hotel chain in the world (IHG). But hell, I just wanted a...
