Lost Coast Brewery and Cafe

We love the Lost Coast Brewery.  Whenever we come up to Humboldt County to see our beloved Redwoods, we stop by this fabulous local brewery for food and beer.  I love the crisp, refreshing taste of the Great White.  My spouse prefers the darker stout, especially the kind they brew in the summer. The pub food is great-- we usually order their nachos with pulled pork (half an order is plenty of food) and "build your own pizza" and share, it just hits the spot.  The chicken wings and fish & chips are also tasty.  We simply love their food...and the prices are right, too.  Always crowded there--that's telling. The Lost Coast Brewery is a *must-stop* for all pub and beer lovers and for anyone visiting Humboldt!

I love Lost Coast beer.  So this was pretty much a must for me while I was staying in King Range.  Sad to say, it was a disappointing and unremarkable experience.  I was excited to get their raspberry ale on tap, but actually found it to be unremarkable.  I've never tried this particular beer (because its only sold in the big bottle) but I either didn't care for it or something was up with the tap.  Usually beer on tap tastes more robust and flavorful then watered down.  I regret not asking them to bring me a tangerine wheat instead.  The food sounds good, but it is rather bland and uninteresting.  I had a Navajo chicken sandwich - it was okay but I've eaten a lot of flatbread in my life and this was the worst I've had.  The sandwich itself lacked flavor.  The other diners I ate with shared similar sentiments about their meals.  The service was poor - the waitress brought us drinks, refilled them once (I noted that she didn't comeback after I didn't want another beer until it was time for the bill), and brought the bill without so much a smile or "thank you".  
I think this would be a good happy hour spot to hang out at the bar and shoot pool  but don't bother with the food.  I hope the beer on tap doesn't always taste like that, btw.

On a road trip from LA to Seattle along the coast. Stopped in Lost Coast for dinner and beers. Great food, great atmosphere and over the top service.
Thanks Jennifer. We'll be back.
