My mother found this place and told me it's the best Smashburger she's ever had. It didn't take me much time to see if she was right and I'll say this is the best Smashburger I've ever had.

So happy we went to the soft opening today. It was crowded, but workers quickly put out more chairs and were circling around to make sure everyone was happy. They allow kids and dogs (yay!!!) and have food to order to help soak up the...Read More

Headlands is a great brewery, the beer and food are good, and the atmosphere and location are great. I enjoy coming here at least once a week for a beer and relaxing outside. They offer all their beers in various sizes: 13oz, 16oz, 20oz (20oz seems like...Read More

Really like this place. Love that they continuously change their beer offerings (including other breweries). Staff is friendly & very attentive - they’re genuinely interested in making sure people are enjoying themselves. I’m a bit biased towards hazy IPAs, & theres are consistently very,...Read More

Awesome drinks. Awesome staff. Sometimes the customers take a while to order, so I hear other customers mumbling about the wait in the line, but I say who cares. You're at a brewery.. why are you in a rush? Relax and talk to someone...Read More

Great addition to Lafayette. The beer is good, the beertenders are friendly. The best part is probably the venue though. It has seating inside for about 15 or so, but there are also 2 outdoor spaces. A covered patio in the...Read More

What a local brewery should be -- excellent beers, cozy inside & outside atmosphere, fun music & food events, and the perfect vibe for dates or families. Headlands doesn't disappoint: the non-traditional space is so well though out, and the quality of beer, which continues...Read More

Love the ability to get different size beers or a full pitcher if you're sharing. Fantastic ambiance. We are before we went here and wishes we hadn't because the food smelled so good.

Came to check this one out after I had such a great experience at the Berkeley location. It’s similar, but definitely has its own vibe. Berkeley feels like a garden picnic, whereas this one feels more like a bbq at the park. …

Smash burgers were phenomenal, some of the best local beer I've had. Beer tender Josh led me in the right direction when I was having a hard time deciding what to drink. Great staff and great experience.

Best and most affordable burger in town, my kid and I love grabbing them after his soccer practice. He likes the pink frozen lemonade, it's the great wines, and CBD water for the wife and I though.
