We were inside (was boisterous!), moved outside since we had someone with hearing aids. Sat on the patio, got an iced tea, a sav blanc and Pliny the Elder. Cool air was nice! Took a chance on the spin dip - it did NOT disappoint....Read More
$20–30Atmosphere: 5Varies by time / day3-4 peopleNo waitNot surePaid street parkingStreet parking is available around the blocks. Mon-Sat 8-6p is paid parking. Maybe you'll get lucky like us and get a meter with 50 minutes on it at 5:10p!The kiddo behind us had fresh apple juice and coloring paper, but no kids menu.Some of the seating could be tight with a wheelchair.

Sat at the bar last Saturday and Sunday night. Had a blast. Great beer, friendly bartenders, solid pizza, and great conversations with friendly folks I met at the bar. This pub has an awesome friendly old school charm that makes you want to revisit.

It's one of the best breweries and restaurants in the country. Flawless beers, fantastic service, and they handled a very busy event with zero issues and hiccups. Can't recommend a visit any more highly.

Pizza wasn't anything special but that's not what we came for. Place was packed but we found a spot at the bar and got to try a bunch of beers. These guys have obviously been in the game for a while and they really don't...Read More

We have only been here twice and both times was for the Pliny the younger release. Amazing organization for the huge crowds and service didn’t skip a beat. They have this down to an science and yes younger is a glorious libation!

Great beer. Especially Belgians and IPAs. It has a many home runs with both Pliny’s to name some. The food is always fresh. Certainly you can get a good pizza but the Fonio salad was great. The wraps, wings and all are good as...Read More

Pliny Release: 2025 Amazing job! The staff was friendly and patient. Bringing coffee and donuts at 8am for those in line. The beers are phenomenal, highly recommend to try everything at least once. Food is also a must try. The wings are baked, giving a good base...Read More

First time here. My brother has stood in line before for Pliny the Younger so I figure we would join him this year. 5 hours to get in but I was with family so it was cool. Beer is delicious! Pizza is delicious! Our server...Read More

Got there at prime time and we were seated fairly quickly. Very small tables for a party of four if you’re getting drinks and food. Pliny on tap. Interesting sours based on white and red wine. Pizza was good and we loved the hummus plate,...Read More

Wonderful old skool brewery! The atmosphere is great and the beer memorabilia is like a museum! We had wings, pizza & beer which is probably a perfect meal! Russian River Brewing has a long history and it is obvious why that is the case.

A bucket list brewery to hit up. For a Thursday night RRBC wasn't as busy as I was expecting. No wait or reservations were needed. Their beer on tap was delicious and worth exploring outside of their flagship selections they're known for. Sometimes food at...Read More

The food here is excellent and even better, the beer. How times have changed and you're now able to buy 4 cases of Pliny at a time... Wow, love it so much!

If you like beer and are in Santa Rosa you can't miss Russian River Brewing Company. Great beer on tap, a thorough menu and daily specials. If you're lucky, Pliny the Younger will be on tap. But don't bet on it.

The Pliny is my favorite beer of all time. Their wings in pliny sauce is amazing! It should be featured on Hot Ones. This is the only place in Santa Rosa (maybe even Sonoma County) that isn't afraid to dish up some heat. HIGHLY ...Read More
