Meat in chili. Yikes

We ordered VEGAN chili and were reassured by two waitresses that it’s vegan with beyond meat. Upon arriving home and starting to eat it- we fished out several chunks of meat, that had clearly meat fiber and structure, nothing like beyond (we eat beyond all the time). Stay away, unless you’re ok eating the occasional piece of meat in your dish.

Good vegan options in Idylwild, but....

Was happy to try this place as it can be hard to find good vegan options in small towns like this. The menu includes a Beyond Burger with vegan cheese which is great, but they charge $3 extra than the regular meat burger. We ordered 3 in our group reluctantly paying the $3 vegan surcharge figuring the vegan cheese was a nice touch. When the burgers came they didn't include cheeze. The waitress said they no longer offer vegan cheeze even though it's on the menu as if it's included. I asked if they could take a buck off the burgers- she checked with the manager Ryan and he said no. They also offer a Beyond Brat (with a $2 vegan surcharge) and a vegan chili. For an appetizer they offer Buffalo or BBQ Cauliflower which is vegan, but there was hardly any sauce on them, so we asked for a side and it was good. They just drip some sauce on them, they aren't tossed. Overall, a nice option in a small town. The outside deck is nice but when we went it was packed and had to wait an hour for a table.

Pros: vegan options in a small town , nice outside deck

Cons: $3 surcharge for a Beyond Burger and $2 for a Brat

Good Chili

I loved the vegan chili, it was perfect for a cold day. I also loved that the restaurant was dog friendly.

They also have Buffalo cauliflower wings, and a vegan hot dog and burger option. We went back and ordered them the next day.

Fried and Delicious!

Ordered: Buffalo Cauliflower and French fries.

Upon arrival we had a very short wait before the staff showed us to our table, they were very friendly and three different people asked us if we had been helped yet. We sat in their outdoor patio section which was a nice atmosphere overlooking some of the trees of Idyllwild. We ordered our food and it felt like it came out immediately. Not everyone does fried food well but Idyllwild Brew Pub knows what they’re doing. The French Fries had a beautiful crunch, and for those that follow me, you know that fried potatoes are one of my favorites and texture is important to me, these fries were on point! The Buffalo Cauliflower also had their texture done perfectly, it was tender, crunchy and crispy. Just enough Buffalo sauce on the cauliflower to give it a nice kick and I’m pretty sure they used a bit of malt vinegar which took the flavor to another level that I was not expecting, really delicious. The Vegan Malt Vinaigrette dipping sauce was the touch on the top and I also used it for dipping the fries. I’m writing this review from my backyard the next day and my friend who came to eat with me is trying to convince me to go back today (I don’t live in Idyllwild, I’m like an hour away to give you some reference of the draw this food has on us). This is also the food we had after a long hike, so it also had the benefit of having the added ingredient of hunger. That being said, if you’re in the area definitely check it out.

Pros: Great Fried Food, Friendly Staff, Quick Service

Good atmosphere

This place is popular! I didn’t get to try the beer but the Buffalo cauliflower was yummy! The chili was okay.. chili also had beyond meat in it.

Pros: Great indoor and outdoor seating , Cauliflower and fries are fried separately /vegan

Great beer

The vegan options were beyond tacos, beyond burger($20), vegan chili, and fries.
Good beer selection.

Pros: Nice atmosphere

Cons: Needs a menu item that's not fake meat.
