Manrock Brewing Co - PISMO BEACH

People are friendly, great food, and a casual atmosphere. We always look forward to stopping in for lunch and a few beers when we are in town.

I really contemplated this for a while. The restaurant features a narrow, elongated bar, and the back area resembles a spacious gravel backyard. There's a wide selection of beers available, so if that's your main interest, this might be the spot for you. It wasn't quite my style, though; it just didn't appeal to me personally. I can see how some people would absolutely enjoy it, as it has a casual, backyard atmosphere. However, I found the food to be a bit overpriced—definitely worth considering before you go. As for the service, it was mostly self-serve, but that didn't bother me. I probably won't return, but you might find it to your liking!

The wood fire pizza is delicious, you can taste the freshness! Service is always friendly and welcoming! They also have a patio area that is dog friendly and spacious so that is another plus! Great beer great food, 10/10 recommend! :

Delicious pizza! It was baked to perfection, and the jalapeño toppings were just the right amount. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I highly recommend this place. The beer was fantastic as well!

I have been here twice now and both times it has been exceptional pizza and service. The pizza is made is made with such care and quality that you can taste it in every bite. The dough is made at a local bakery and all ingredients and appetizers are made fresh in house such as the pickled jalapeños. Let me tell you about the pickled jalapeños I am a sucker for anything with a good pickling. They are so fresh that they still have a crunch to them so please just order them on your pizza. We told the owner that she needs to sell them by the jar! Back to the pizza, it's cooked in a stone oven in the back patio where we can sit under cozy lights enjoy a in house brewed beer and watch as your pizza cooks. It's an experience worth having, again and again. The mac and cheese is so creamy and is served in a hot skillet pan. It's only served during the fall/winter season so try if you get the chance (you won't regret it). The nachos are served with brisket which are good and are a large portion but definitely not star players like the Mac and cheese. The brewery of beers is carefully crafted and they have something to serve any patrons taste buds. All in all this place is delicious, and cozy and it deserves so much more business. On our last visit we had the chance of meeting and speaking with the owner, while she was baking our pizza, she and her staff are so kind and welcoming. She told us all about the dough and making her own pickled jalapeños but also told us business hasn't been the same since the pandemic. This is a staple now every time I stay in Pismo and I will look forward to being back every single time.
