Oak and Otter Brewing Co. — Restaurant in San Luis Obispo

Went there on a Saturday date night with the hubby. This place had a LOT of people there but it honestly didn't feel too crowded thanks to the layout. This was my first time trying their brews and I thought they were pretty refreshing; definitely tasted fresh and the IPA was perfectly balaned with hoppy and a bit of sweet. We ordered two grilled cheese sandwiches and I was so happy to learn they actually had GOOD vegan cheese!!! When I saw the menu I honestly thought they would take the common resteraunt way of saying "vegan options" meaning I would get grilled bredad with tomatoes, but they surprised me with some tasty fake gooey goodnedss!! Photo below, forgot to take one until half way through the sandwich and salad, so know that you do get more for your money!! The bread was very tasty too, and outdoor seating with the firepit was nice. All around good date night, and I am planning to go back for an afternoon pint sometime...

Thoroughly impressed with this new brewery in town. First off, the beers were flavorful, creative, and complex. My personal favorite was the Amber, but the kolsch was a close second. The artwork and ambience on the inside was wonderful, and the outside area was well heated and comfortable. They have live music regularly as well as lectures/speakers on occasion which is a very cool idea for a brewery in a college town. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Lastly, the food far exceeded my expectations. The pulled pork sliders were packed full and well assembled with slaw plus a delicious pickle and sizable side salad. The price point was also very fair all around for beers and food. Definitely recommend giving this...

Very impressed with this small craft brewery. Tucked away in a secluded location, this is a great place to enjoy some fresh beer off the beaten path.

I was happy to see that this is not an IPA heavy brewery. I love IPAs, don’t get me wrong, but it takes some guts to produce some good craft beers on the west coast without 5 or 6 IPAs. They specialize in the many other types of beers.

I had the Morro Rock Kolsch and it was fantastic - crisp, flavorful, earthy notes balanced with clean hops. My wife had a Belgian that she also thoroughly enjoyed.

Friendly staff, open air place with high ceilings, and offering great beers in a cozy...
