Vista Brewing is an up-and-coming Brewery on the near East Side. We shared the OctoberFest beer flight. Theres a real diversity in what Vista brews, so a tasting flight is an excellent start! For Octoberfest, they served up a giant Bavarian soft pretzel with a mustard seed dip. Super relaxed atmosphere and FREE parking!

Vista Brewing is a great spot for good beer and a friendly, comfortable environment. The location is great as well. My favorite is the Middle Trinity tripel. Unfortunetly its only available in bottles. Hopefully they offer more of their brews on tap and in to go cans/crowlers. Their food is great too. The burger is killer and the hash in fire!

It s a 10/10 brewery. Don t sleep on the food here, it s all really amazing. Crispy chicken sandwich, mushroom melt, wings, salads, pretzel bites all phenomenal. The beers are excellent to boot. We try to come here every couple of weeks for dinner and chill atmosphere. The bartenders are so great too!!

Vista Taproom is an excellent stop for hanging out or dining in. Brewing is all done in Driftwood, Texas to bring a locally microbrewery product to the USA s 7th largest city in San Antonio. Great food and exclusive award winning craft beer are a treat at this East of the interstate unique location. The vibe and southwest decor inside has a great tone to it! The bacon jam Lamar Burger is great here and for the vegan diet also a great mushroom sandwich is available (messy and delicious !) Vista beers are exclusive products only available on tap from Austin-Buda-Kyle-Driftwood-Dripping Springs-San Marcos-New Braunfels-Wimberley-San Antonio and select locations in bottles and cans. You can find Vista beer in cans or bottles at the Taproom most of the time in the To-Go fridge at the front counter. Be sure and check out this exclusive Taproom for award winning beers and unique barrel-aged beers that fall not far from the tree!

Would have liked to try this place. Hours said open until 10, arrived at 8:30pm on a Wednesday night and they were closed. Totally dark. Having now read some other reviews, seems like this is par for the course. Not a great way to run a business.

I stopped going to their old location on Buena Vista St, because they always kicked us out an hour or so before closing time. Today I decided to give them a second chance at this new location and before heading there, I checked on Google and saw that they closed at 10 pm, I arrived around 8:30 pm and it was already CLOSED! I dont understand why this Brewery has never respected its own hours, I dont know if these are instructions from the owners, or if their employees simply do what they want, but its annoying and honestly, it is disrespectful to customers and future customers. I understand that, as a business, you have the right to close whenever you want, but at least have the decency to update your hours on Google and dont waste our time!

I personally had an amazing experience here. All the details were on point. We got to seat ourselves. Orders were brought out spaced out so we can take time to enjoy drinks, appetizers, and meals separately. The cheese plate was amazing as well as the chicken mash. Staff was great as well.

Fantastic intimate brewery! Attended a private Military reception party and it was so much fun. Perfect set up for a private party. Workers are over the top nice, food excellent and everyone aims to please. Very laid back vibe, doors open, can mingle inside and out. The beers and wine margarita are great.

I just stopped in for a beer and had some decent beers on tap with some to-go six-packs. Nothing was fantastic, but good beer. They have some sour/Brett beers available too but be warned I got a Brett note on one of their non-sour beers too sooooo... They have wine and cocktails for the nonbeer drinkers. Parking can be a challenge during peak hours so plan ahead and park off lot of you can.

Update: Vista Brewing San Antonio new location is gorgeous, spacious, yet retains the atmosphere that made the Warehouse 5 location so cozy. And, yes, a full kitchen and coffee service! Definitely check out the new spot! Absolutely love grabbing a beer and usually a bite from one of the many tasty popups they host. Excellent and friendly service.

Overall great experience for a new business. Pilsner with roasted cocoa is unique and IPA are good. Service and wait time needs to be improved. There were families including us so a kids menu would be nice. Needs changing tables in restroom and music doesnt have to be too loud (raised volume after 4pm for some reason and speakers are sitting on floor next to tables which fires the sound directly at tables) Kid-friendliness: Needs kids menu and changing tables

This place is off to a fantastic start after only just opening! I was very nervous because I loved the wine bar aspect of the place that was here before, but now I have not only a great wine bar, but also a brewery and a place that serves salad in a city that makes it hard to find one at a good price point. The beer is amazing too. Far superior than what you can get at Burleson or Alamo across the street. I usually go for wine, but this place changes that for me. What sets this place apart though is the quality of the staff. They are all absolutely lovely and are exceptional hosts- somewhat of a rarity in this town. This place gets major points for the quality of vibe and atmosphere. I also appreciate that it feels classy and yet super casual. They hit it out of the park with this place!!

Really neat historic warehouse, great outdoor vibe for sitting under the shady trees. I had the Pils. Would absolutely return here! Parking: Parking is along the adjacent streets. Avoid the lots next to the building. Kid-friendliness: The patio area is an easy place to have the kids sitting with you!

This place rules. Lindsay is so knowledgeable about beer and she can guide you whether you re an amateur or a seasoned beer drinker. Vista s tasting room is super cool, and their hill country space is too cool. Give them a shot.

Super cute location. Very friendly staff. My friend and I try to different breweries and this place is definitely somewhere I d recommend. The beer is good. I liked driftwood. The pretzel was a bit tough and I didn t care for the dipping sauces. That cookie tho. The salted caramel chocolate chip cookie was divine.

Solid beers. Inviting atmosphere. We will be back! There is an expansive back patio with lots of shade (thank you!!). Indoor seating-it is a bit like shared spaces so, the brewery and the coffee shop have indoor spaces to chill inside. Pet friendly. No caveats. Thank you (again). Friendly staff, cool merch. We WILL be back (Arnie not included.)

How is this place in the middle of the West side and I have not been here? Great little patio area that overlooks the skyline. Dont want to post, because it will bring others. Solid brewery, nice service that gave us some background on how they chose this building, with a patio to enjoy some of the best beer in town.

San Antonio location is great! Also allows membership to the barrel club if you dont live in the Driftwood area - the great people at Vista take care of getting members bottles shipped from Driftwood to SA for pickup.

Amazing! The brewery is situated nicely, and in a building that allows other businesses to complement what they are doing, such as a roaster, and tasting room of multiple businesses. Also, the staff (Matt and John) are super friendly and made the experience all the more enjoyable.
