BarrelHouse Brewing Co. - Brewery and Beer Gardens — Restaurant in Templeton

BarrelHouse Brewing in Paso Robles is one of those rare spots that blends craft, atmosphere, and community into a memorable experience. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the laid-back Central Coast vibe—rustic wood, open spaces, and a welcoming energy that makes it just as good for a casual pint as it is for a night out with friends.

The beer lineup is consistently strong, ranging from crisp lagers to hop-forward IPAs and smooth stouts. They’re not afraid to experiment either, with rotating seasonal and specialty releases that keep things fresh.

The New High-Proof Seltzer Cocktails are really good! The flagship BarrelHouse IPA is always a safe bet, but don’t skip their barrel-aged selections if you want something richer and more complex.

Beyond the beer, the Paso Robles location really shines as a gathering place. The outdoor beer garden with its stage and live music setup is a highlight—few things beat sipping a cold one while listening to local bands under the California sky. Food trucks often park on-site, so there’s always something tasty to pair with your pint.

The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the craft. Reilly, the Tap Manager is awesome!

Whether you’re a longtime beer geek or just starting to explore, they’ll steer you toward something you’ll enjoy.

Overall, BarrelHouse Paso isn’t just a brewery—it’s a destination. Great beer, great people, and a space that feels both lively and relaxed. A must-visit when in...

Awful service, been there once before, poor service but thought to give it another try; sat down middle of the bar, was ignored for about 10 min, no problem busy Saturday until a male bar server (for some reason with one glove on one hand) looks past me and decides to help the people behind me, so noticeable the couple next to me say "you must be invisible", few more min go by, a short blond hair gal w/attitude finally gets me a beer, not even full to the line on the glass, i noticed other glasses she was serving; when i point to the glass to the couple next to me the guy says not sure what is going on. i can't think of anything else beside maybe not fitting with their regular customer profile and i bet im not the only one that has experienced this. obviously management must not care about this issue. im thankful for my home town brewery, Lengthwise, the staff are always...

BarrelHouse is a gem of a brewery. It's nestled in a corner of Tin City but easy to notice. The property is large, and they have two or three outdoor areas and a stage where you can enjoy your beer, some music, and the California sun. The staff might be the nicest and most attentive I've ever experienced at a brewery, which is saying something.

That experience is out done only by the beer. I had a flight that included the Strawberry Daze, Hazed and Confused, a double hazy, Paso Robles Sour, and the double IPA. Honestly, I had a hard time picking a favorite. I loved the beer so much I came home with a couple of crowlers. If you're heading out to Paso and want a great beer experience, stop by BarrelHouse Brewing Co.

Pro Tip: Their beer is all over Paso Robles, so stick with the stuff you wouldn't find in a restaurant. You...
