Reviews of Beach Fire Brewing Company (Restaurant)

Dave Amyot

Great service, great beer, great food. Spruce beer and meatloaf sarnie was excellent

Russ Tovich

Good beer and good food.

B. Abbott

Welcoming staff. Airy, comfy, relaxing space done in a funky industrial style. Coffee comes in individual french press - make it the way you like it. Wife said their brewed-on-premises beer was excellent. Grilled Reuben sandwich w salad & cilantro/ lime mussels were v good.

Dwight Ran

I enjoy visiting Beach Fire. The food is good and the staff are pleasant. The beer,... ah! They have their standard usual which I enjoy along with their seasonal ones. Currently they have a Bock beer which reminds me of Germany, and me wife loves it too! Good quality all around. Be back soon!

James Marsh

Matthew Fox

Best place to eat and drink in town. Excellent beer, extraordinary food and very friendly service

Clayton Erickson

Really enjoy both visiting this place or getting a growler filled. Good food, great beer, excellent service, and a dog friendly patio! This time enjoyed the soba salad and a taster of all 7 beers available on tap. Definitely on the guaranteed visit list every time we visit Campbell River.

Frisky Weasel

Beer was good, staff was friendly.

Turning away customers is not good practice under any circumstances. Its not the right choice not to let certain people in because of beliefs, or health status. Asking for personal medical information as well as denying a customer based on such information is illegal under the Canadian Charter of Rights, the Canadian Bill of Rights, the Human Rights Code, the Personal Health Information Protection Act, and the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. What the government is doing is asking buisnesses to inforce a mandate which violates these laws. No law or mandate (v passports) in canada supersedes the charter and if it does its null and void. You have a choice to do the right thing.

Chris Carlin

Best beer in town.

michael chen

Was highly recommend from the hotel stuff, so we decide to give it a try. Not much food choice on the menu, chicken quesadilla I order was okay, beer was average. Little pricey for what I got.

Brad Maxwell

Great beer and food. Service is somewhat lackluster. They have had trouble with our bill 2 out of the three times I visited. At times it's difficult to get served.

Stacey Bell

Great local brewery with rotating special beers and a daily chainging menu.

Gary heymann

Great place ,great staff.

Rode the MC up from Courtenay for a beer. Had the Stout Nitro. Was delicious

Kevin James

Awesome interior, great staff, and a menu with a true artistic flair

Marina H

Fantastic beer!

charnero

Great fresh beer as usual.

Gary Haupt

Three of us out for beers and food. So...I have had some awfully good mussels..but...never as good as these Chipotle & Lime mussels. Made from Laura's original receipe, still prepared as she meant them to be. Had a flight then settled on The Pale Ale...but all were delish.

Warren Macdonald

What a gem of a find! Nice open eclectic space, we got the last table for two on a Wednesday night, which tells me the word is out :)

Jesse Morrison

Great beer, great staff, great space. Well done Beach Fire Brewing crew!!

Kim Rhindress

Menu was very limited for gluten free and further limited as the kitchen was closed due to the heat wave. Nice vibe and we enjoyed our Buddha Bowls but would have liked to try some other dishes. The beer was just so-so. I tried their flavour of the day and could not detect any of the notes they claimed. Nice to see more independent restaurants opening up in Campbell River. This one is worth a try.

Surbhi Agrawal

Good beer however the food was average!

Steve Ray

Great beer & atmosphere!

Sean Cooke

Small batch are always great. The standards are delicious as well! Can't wait for patio and pizza again!

Zak Toews

Great atmosphere. Good beer. Nice big tables.

Grant Atwood

Good food and even better pints. A Campbell River gem, you cannot miss this spot when passing through or looking for a spot to visit night after night. Either way, Beach Fire Brewing is not worth passing up!

Tyson Doknjas

Every time I return to Beach Fire Brewing and Nosh House, I’m always pleasantly surprised by the their constant raising of the bar in terms of beer quality and flavour, food quality and presentation, service, and even unique and very cool merchandise. They’re always experimenting with one-of-a-kind brews and I highly recommend getting flights to try as many as you can. I often get the knowledgeable staff to pick the flight for me which keeps things exciting. Can’t wait to return to my hometown to make another stop at Beach Fire Brewing. Thanks for the tasty beer and delicious food! Cheers

Jon De Roo

Great time

Gayle Wigmore

Great place to eat and drink. We had the Mussels in lime chipolte sauce to start and then the Butter chicken and Chicken burrito for our dinner. Excellent food and service!

Carlee Schultz

Great beer and amazing food! Try the IPA if you are into hoppy beers, it's very smooth! I love that the menu is always changing so you can never get tired of the selection.

Madeleine Lee

Warm, and cozy location for family and friends. The menu is always changing, so be sure to try out different items when you are there.

Jason Oliver

Excellent spot for a stop on a long drive. Very friendly staff, fantastic mix of food options, and fun decor. Enjoyed various sizes of various beer options as well. We’ll be back!

Amanda Rogers

Super helpful staff! Went with some friends and I am not a beer drinker; however, one of the servers recommends a great flavor and it was a wonderful experience. Great food and super busy!

Miguel Angel Amat Flor (Miggs)

Bloody good ale and arguably even better food!

Chris Pollitt

Matt B

Good craft beer and food. Quick service

Jason V.

Excellent locals brews. Great interior!

Amazing experience. Grab some growlers to go, or appys and pints to stay. Sometimes there's horses (rarely).

David McCallum

First time there today... love the interior and the crew were great.

Ron Manke

Great brews and nice art on display!

Whiskey Ginger

Good beer. Pale ale is wonderful. Menu changes daily so did not get a chance to eat. Came between lunch and dinner . Only had bar snacks. Saw food . Looked good

Lacey Nutt

Great beer! Great staff! Great food!

Pacific Northwest

Most condescending servers ive encountered.

Dylan Willsteed

One of the best beer selections I’ve tasted in all of British Columbia, fantastic food as well. The place has a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Can’t wait to return!

Silke Pfeifer

Great layout. Comfortable place with a great selection of beers and delicious warm pretzels. I will be back to sample some beers.

Lucretia Schanfarber

The beer was good! The service was ok. The menu looked good but the actual flavours of the food served were very, very disappointing. Lack-lustre. Bland. Dull. The recipes and the presentation both need "oomph." Especially for the money being charged. Gourmet prices but not gourmet taste. Nevertheless, it's great to see this kind of initiative in Campbell River so we will continue to go to support their effort. Hopefully they will jazz up their food soon.

Derek Wills

Great beer, open well decorated brewery

Wayne Wheeler

Enjoyed tasty, creatively brewed beers along with excellent food. Patio is cosy but small. Service is friendly and prompt. Will visit again...and again.

Warren Janes

Great spot for dinner or a quick nosh..

Alex Clark

Really Good. The quesadilla and german beer went well together!

Lynn MacLean

Good food, good service. Love the decor

Iain Tranter

Excellent beer and very friendly staff. Visit if you like local craft beer.

OHGODNOTTHEBEES

Beer was alright food never came after an hour me and my buddy went to McDonald’s instead.

John Newman

They have a great sour beer. I had a (cool) mexican lasagne, which was tasty. The others enjoyed their food. Looks like they have many vegan options for my wife and daughter. Would go again.

shilo93

Great beer at a fair price with friendly service

Dr. Paul Ruscica

Pale ale was fantastic. Great salsa too. Enjoyed conversation with bartender as well.

Daniel Kirst

Cool and comfortable place as well as a great selection of beers and delicious Pretzels! I'd recommend getting a flight to sample their different beers! We ended up taking a couple of growlers home with us so we can enjoy more of their beer there!

Eric Heel

Great beer! Food is awesome too, good place to go with friends, share some food and hang out.

Kris R

Highly recommend this place for beers, ambience and their food. Their smoked meat sandwich and selection of soups was top notch!

Geillis

Awesome atmosphere, amazing beer! The ever changing menu is great! Havent been disappointed so far!

Kyle Goulet

Excellent selection of of their craft beer. Amazing locallly-sourced food. Superb ambiance. Thrilled to see this in CR.

Bret’s Garage

The decor is the nicest thing about this place. Way over priced food, beer is alright

Sheila Scully

Stupendous as always!!!

Paul Louis

(Translated) The place to be in Campbell River! Great pub, very pleasant, friendly staff (Original) The place to be in Campbell River! Fijne pub, heel gezellig, vriendelijk personeel

Devin Blaney

Great place! Really good beer, friendly and knowledge staff. Nice, bright room, good bar.

Scott N

Best beer around and the food was great. Campbell River is a small place, and visiting there it was great having food and beer that was of high quality. The Pale Ale was delicious.

Michael Woods

Good little micro brew. Only gave it 3 stars due to the limited selection of beers on tap, I think they only had 4. I had a Pale Ale as it was the closest thing they had to an IPA and it was pretty good. We also got some chips and salsa and while the portion was quite small the salsa was very tasty. My wife also got some sort of "bowl" that had quinoa and that was pretty good too. As a cyclist I found the interior to be awesome as there are some bike related things around. All in all for a small town brewery it's pretty good, just needs more selection of beers and maybe larger portion sizes of the appys.

florence

Super yum beer. The Ember red is my fav .

Meesh

Really chill place, spacious with indoor and outdoor patio areas. Great place to be. The current seasonals (cherry lime sour and pina colada hefeweizen) are so good!

Adria Gleeson

Great food, awesome beer, love it!!

Heidi Loveridge

Lovely location and delicious eats.

Aaron Rota

Really enjoy this spot every time we visit. Very good food and fresh menu. Also, great kids area with lots of toys for our little one. A true gem!

Sé Paterson

Great place love the Atmosphere. Amazing food, service was great and beer was even better. Thank you to them for bringing something new to campbell river.

Daniel O'Brien

Pale Ale is a winner.

Gordon Jones

Lovely spot to have a delicious lunch and also enjoy the live music.

Doug Chinnery

This is the only brew pub in Campbell River. They have a half dozen or so benchmark beers that are always on tap and another half dozen seasonal or small batch on tap. The people behind the bar were very knowledgeable and super friendly. The food was quite good. Highly recommended.

Wesley Hartford

A great place. The atmosphere and food was awesome, the beer was only alright.

Karley Webb

Had an amazing charcuterie board at a very reasonable price. Beers were also delicious and cold on a hot day. Two patios to choose from - both lovely!

Charlie Picken

Awesome place to have tapas but not full meals. The even better part is their beer. It's amazing. The high tide pale ale is my favorite of the bunch.

Evan S

Great beers and friendly servers, but they forgot about our food that was ordered. We waited as other tables were served and about an hour after that paid for our beers and left

Diane Wilson

Amazing eats!! Always the most interesting and enticing creations! Prices are fair and portions are perfect! Not stuffed beyond comfort and no waste ???? The drink is ALWAYS spot on!

Jason C

This place is decent. Paying can be a pain in the butt, their POS is slow as molasses. The beer is pretty good I'll have to admit. The staff are polite but as other people say it's a little strange walking in there. The staff aren't welcoming or engaging. Staff seem somewhat aloof and undirected.

zvi gilinsky

Great beer, great food, amazing atmosphere and vert good service, enjoyed every second :)

Nicole Litke

Great beer, great food, and incredible staff. Highly recommend!

Maysyn Gordon

Great food & kombucha!

Sean

Cool little brew pub! Tasty beer and food. Two patios available.

Gee

Amazing spot with an even better vibe and outdoor seating that allows doggies and gives them a water bowl! Great host, server, everything was perfect. Food is great!

Trycinda Hartling

Best food and beer on the island!

Gordon Stogre

Bizarre. Staff with tunnel vision? Went in tonight (Friday Dec 23 around 4:45 pm) to get something to take home. Maybe 20 people at tables. Lots of staff bustling around. Walked up to the bar. 4-5 staff moving around and talking behind the bar. Waited. Read the beer description list. Sounded good. Waited. Tried to make eye contact with some of the staff. Didn't work. Waited. A guy surveyed the room, his eyes sweeping right past me. He turned around and wiped down the beer dispensing area. Turned back to face the room. I tried eye contact. Nothing. 2 other people at the bar. 5 minutes past. Finally, I left. A very strange experience. Guess I didn't look like the type they wanted to serve?

Ryan Fransen

Amazing beer, incredible food! We had the meat and cheese plate and the beef tacos, both were crazy good. Tried the saison and the blonde ale and highly recommend both. Great place, would go back for sure.

Maurice Burdock

I'd give more stars based on beer. My complaint comes from the food. Not that its entirely bad it just is super small portions and its not just even a little pub foodish. Menu needs burgersor even steak or fries. If your into rabbit food and small portions cool.

Greg Holtz

Limited choice of beers, which were mediocre. The server we had was less than helpful and not knowledgeable on the menu. If you want a menu you'd better take a picture of the chalk board when you come in as there isn't anything at the tables and the server won't know it. We ordered kids grilled cheese but got a quesadilla. We sent it back but it returned with the explanation that they were out of bread so we didn't have much choice but to accept it. At least we were comped for that when we prompted them to. When we asked what the desert options were our server pointed to the chalk board behind us and said there they are.

Gurv

I was pretty disappointed with Beach Fire Brewing; the beer options weren’t great compared to many other breweries we visited on the Island and the food wasn’t great. Staff were friendly, but I also saw someone working in the kitchen who wasn’t wearing a mask, so that wasn’t great either.

Christina Lounsbury

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, busy Friday night, delicious food, delicious beer, knowledgeable staff. Would highly recommend and definitely will be back.

Darren Van Soye

Great food and live entertainment. I highly recommend this place. Hopefully, they will brew an IPA soon.

Leona Perkins

Excellent product and service

Dan Lagos

Excellent place for a good brew and a snack.

Tony Cheesman

Stumbled upon this bar as it was the only thing open in sleepy Campbell River at 9 o'clock!! The decor is quite minimalist and was nice and clean, which I quite like. My wife had a salmon dish marinaded in a lime and vegetable dip with tortilla chips which she enjoyed as we were still jetlagged and it was light and tasty, not heavy with a thick sauce on it like we had at lunchtime. I had bbq chicken thighs and rice with a sweet sticky sauce, also light but a good size, enough to leave me satisfied. I really found the Pale Ale refreshing and fruity, very similar to my favourite local Australian beer, and at a very reasonable price. Overall a very nice experience.

Armando Rosas

Great food and excellent beer and serving.

Chris Norman

Beer choices were good, food was outstanding. Highly recommended

sibley meghan (megalicious0188)

I love their Hazy IPA. My fave beer. Friendly staff and just a great atmosphere. Cheers!

Noah Laidman

They had MINI EGG CHEESECAKE and COFFEE CRISP BEER. Enough said.

Cassandra Cowie-Bélanger

The best option for a tasteful, nutritious, satisfying meal in Campbell River, with some solid beer options. Very grateful that my work trips bring me to this cozy town with this gem of a restaurant!

Julia M

Great beer but need to work on customer service. Husband had a beer dumped in his lap then added to the bill. Also left his buddies beer on the tab after his buddy left early and paid for his own drinks. They did correct the errors when they were pointed out, but no real apologies for the errors.

Googleguide002

Beers were very good. The service was a little rude, rushed and they weren’t clear on how to order with Covid protocols and rules. Seemed like they weren’t happy we were trying to dine there.

Logan Milliken

Great selection of local craft beer at a more than affordable price. $3.5 sleeves all day! I highly recommend high tide pale ale

Martin Leimer

Very good homemade brewed beer. The food is good as well, but portions are too small.

Shaun Virtue

We had a great evening here at this brewery bar. The beers were tasty and original recipes and being a home brewer have high expectations! The food was really good too and very reasonably priced. The staff were so friendly too, with one of the owners giving us a personal tour of the brewery! A really good and Interesting evening, which is clearly popular with locals and regulars. I would highly recommend this for drinking or eating. But also for the friendly and social atmosphere! A Great concept!

B. P.

Best mussels I've ever had. Great selection of beer, and the servers were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Tell your friends.

Martin Bradshaw (Marty)

Great kombucha and pizza

Bill Wright

Terrible experience. Bad service. Didn’t acknowledge for 30 minutes. Must have been really hard with all 10 customers in the bar. Wouldn’t even recommend to someone I didn’t like.

Stephen Jones

Great food and beer

469warlock

Great appies and beers

Bree P

Great beer! Great food! And great service!

Rachel Bourque

Not sure how this place is still operating. Huge let down. Don’t bother.

Brian Ball

Terrible service, waited a 1/2 hour to take our order and we left a 1/2 hour later as the food didn't show up The place wasn't full and the staff looked confused.

Brodie Alladice

Great beer, great food, great spot.

Glenn Mackie

We tried both the pale ale and the cider. Lovely flavours. The food portions were a disappointment. Although tasty, certainly not good value. Worth a visit but don't expect to be full after your meal.

Gordon Firth

Try it you will like it

Thomas Van Onsem

Excellent food for a decent price and not to mention, delicious beers! That last one is coming from a Belgian, so that does mean something. Only critique I might have is the kinda cold style of some of the servers and the early closing time. But all in all, would certaibly recommend!

L Fraser

Good food and great beer. Small plates for lunch and dinner with an ever-changing blackboard menu. Deservedly busy most of the time but worth a visit.

Valerie Masterman

Great beer great vibe.

azin etesami

Great atmosphere and staff. Food was also delicious.

Keena Moham

Delicious food at a good price. Great beer and atmosphere!

SherryJorgen Ohlsson

Excellent food , beer and atmosphere...one of our favorite places on the island!

Amy Bateman

We went in for just the beer. I had the Moskow Mule, which had a great ginger lime flavor. My husband had the Blond Ale and really enjoyed it. It was a great cozy place.

Helen Tubrett

The nosh offerings were creative and delicious, especially the samosa quesadilla and the lamb sausage with curry couscous!

Jonathan Foote

Great beer, and some tasty food. Good atmosphere. Often busy (for a good reason).

T. Kettler

Great place, great Beer - a real asset for CR... too bad its 9000 km from (my) home _ thumbs up from Germany !

Nazanin M

Fantastic place to eat. Fabulous staff, lively vibe and great food. The salad, mussels and burrito are what we tried and our souls and stomachs were very happy.

Jennifer Warren

Awesome service and super delicious food. Can't wait to go back!

Laura Boag

Good food in a cool space in Campbell River. Service was great and loved the local art on the walls.

Carolynne Forcier

Great beer and great people!!

Andrea Humphreys

Love the outdoor patio seating area! Pizza and beer was delicious albeit a bit pricy for the the pizza but super fresh! Made to feel like my kids were not welcome though. Also it claims to be pet friendly but was told we couldn't bring the dog in (sat on their back patio with a space to have the dog out of the way.

Richard Jones

Great small brewery with some solid core beers and usually a very interesting small batch.

Andy Cowan

Decent beer, good food but the portions are small.

Jacob May

Got the vegan sweet potato, mushroom, and black bean burrito hold sour cream and cheese. Food was good and the dunkel didn’t disappoint

leonard steves

Nice little spot, cool wood tables, nice social atmosphere, good food and beers, hard to go wrong

Gerald Fisher

K. Be prepared. Great food, atmosphere, and brew. Best meal we've had here in Campbell River. Service is fast and super friendly. When I come back here this will be base camp.

james farrell

Osaka potato bites were fantastic, beer was good, however the Mac n cheese was really thick, and a little bland, Not really worth 21 dollars especially since it was only man and cheese with no protein. Stout cake was really dry and crumby.

Jill Vander Ploeg

Good food. Good atmosphere. Great beer!

Chris Williams

Great beer. Great staff. Who knew you could find this in Campbell River!

A S

Really impressed with all that Beach Fire has going on here. Shared a flight with a friend and enjoyed everything - probably can't go wrong with any of their beers. The noshing aspect is delightful and I would love to return for that, however the warm, salty pretzels are such a treat. The decor was not at all what I expected; although there are industrial vibes, the gorgeous artwork really warms up the space and encorporates the local natural beauty in a softer way. It was also a surprise to discover toys for children so they can enjoy being there, and that classes (like yoga) cohabit this space - innovative brewery concepts! Looking forward to another visit, would highly recommend.

kent reesor

Our favorite place for the whole family to meet for beer. We love the opportunity to taste the small batch each week

Clemence Orsini-McIndoe

Nice place to grab a beer in Campbell River. The Stout and Red Ale especially!

Joni Davison

Love going there!

Paul Ives

Great craft beer and good eats in a friendly setting

Matt Ollech

Nice selection of beers with food that was absolutely delicious. I haven't had smoked salmon (in the artichoke dip) this good since Alaska. Friendly staff with a cool atmosphere. Definitely stop by if you're in town!

Kevin Marston

Great beers and cool atmosphere.

Wanda Gust

Fantastic, food and staff were exceptional!

Jonathan Y

Their patio at the front is dog friendly. Nice selection of beers. Very good health measures in place.

Eric MacNeill

Great spot. Best Nitro Stout I've had in a long time. Lovely service too.
