Brewski's Bar & Arcade

Super loud inside! We started the night with ordering our beers at the counter but quickly moved outside to sit so we could hear each other talk. It was very laid back and nice sitting outside in their large patio area. We placed our food orders via a QR code. Food was delivered to our table without any issues.

Excellent bar! a must! Good mix crowd. Bartenders go over the top to give great service. super friendly shout out to the best friendliest bartenders, Stephanie, Lauren , Megan, Rain, Diego, the best service you can get. they make you feel at home even if it's your first time being there. Food is over the top. Some of the best wings I've had in a long time. THE DRINKS ARE ON POINT!

Can't rate the food. By the time we arrived the kitchen was closed. We had eaten beforehand. But the brewskis were great! First time here. Didn't play in the arcade. We hung out in the patio. Nice atmosphere. Honestly, when we arrived, I thought i had made a wrong turn! When you arrive, don't worry, the strip club totally threw us off too . Followed by the dry cleaning right next to it lol This place looked sketchy at first , not going to lie. It was a great night tho. There's a few pool tables inside. Games on both ends of the bar . If you're looking for a Dave n Busters vibe, this isn't it. This place is more lowkey. The introvert in me was pleased. Not overwhelming. Give this place a shot!

The bartenders are so friendly. I really like the orange blossom drink and the spicy cucumber margarita. I like that you can play unlimited games for a time period. Makes things easier.

This isn’t your average skimpy bar food. They really feed you here, and for a good price as well. They have such great selections on the menu. The food comes out looking and tasting the same, every time. The cocktails are super tasty. I’m always satisfied after leaving this place. The chicken kabob plate is my favorite. So delicious!!!

really love this place, it’s super fun and the games and drinks are really affordable! i’ve been here a few times and it’s always super fun, but tonight i went to get another drink at 1:10 (they close at 2 and i was playing games next to the bar and never heard last call) and they told me it had already happened. i understand closing early if no one is there, but there were around 30 people inside. i know i got drinks right before 1:30 last time i was there so it was a little disappointing.

The drinks are great price for SD! It’s super busy and seating is essentially outdoors and the bar top. Tho it can be rather loud on a Saturday inside. Food service was fast, and the bartenders were very attentive. If I didn’t get salmonella from the restaurant prior I would have loved to stay lol. Salmonella and cocktails do not mix..I’ll be back on a weekday to retry

Came for drinks, the place was busy and the bartenders were drunk and complaining about the drinks we were ordering because they did not want to make them. Told us to read the room and order something else. (We ordered a shot with 2 ingredients)I’m a bartender myself and would never be able to be so lazy or have such a bad attitude. There was only two of them and they kept saying they were “unprepared”. Regardless we waited in line like everyone else and were patient and were then approached with attitude. She could have made the drink we ordered in the 15 minutes she spent arguing with us. Cool place needs better trained staff/bartenders, or sober ones because the one yelling at us, older dark headed woman was stumbling behind the bar and slurring her words. 12/22/25

Had an incredible experience tonight--top-tier ambiance, great vibes, delicious food, and arcades that took it to the next level. But the true highlight of the night was our server/mixologist, Stephanie. Her attitude, energy, and genuine enthusiasm for taking care of people are contagious. She creates an environment that feels both welcoming and memorable for first-timers and regulars alike. That kind of presence elevates the entire experience. Well done, Brewskis, on landing a true rockstar. -AyyeBeyBey

9 of us came here about a month ago. 7/9 got their food within 10-15 min. Took 40 min for my friend and I's food and it came cold, we complained and they said they'd refund us partially. It's now a month later and have followed up, no word or money back. Waiter said only one cook was working that day, what kinda sports bar has a single cook on a playoff football sunday?

I've been visiting Brewski's Bar & Arcade on and off for quite some time, though I often opted for smaller bars and pubs where I could enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere and better conversations with bartenders and regulars. Brewski's can get pretty busy, which used to keep me away. However, that all changed when I met Stephanie, Lauren, and Tani... they brought such positive energy and great vibes. They are incredibly attentive, always checking in to see if me and my friends needed another drink while still managing to have friendly conversations as they served other customers. Now, every time I visit Brewski's and one of them are working, they greet me with a smile and maintains that upbeat energy all night long. They are easily three of the best bartenders I've encountered in a busy, fast-paced environment. Kudos to Brewski's and them!

Thought it was about time to update my review. Brewskis is a legendary bar, truly a diamond in the rough. Beer selection is on point, won't tear a hole in your pocket, and is always cold. The bar tenders are all pretty solid here, special shout out to Angel, Shaye, and Lauren for being OG's and always looking out for me and my boys. Service is always solid here, polite, smiles, and always get the orders right. CJ the bouncer for this establishment does a great job at helping maintain the arcade games, make sure unpleasant people do not return, and adds a fun part to the environment. There are pinball machines, pool tables, racing games, and a brand new gaming center they opened in a modified shipping container adjacent to the bar. If you want a great bar with good booze, fun people, and plenty to do this is your spot! Side note: Please have Maria make more specials, she makes amazing Birria Tacos and Posole! Honorable mention: Megan is new to the bar and so far has been super chill. I definitely appreciate you always being quick with the beers and chatting with us!

This is an awesome place to watch football on Sunday. They have a terrific craft beer selection and loads of TVs with all the Sunday games on different TVs. The food menu is modest but a reasonable price. I ordered the western burger and it was tasty and came with a load of fries. Staff were friendly and attentive.

Super loud inside! We started the night with ordering our beers at the counter but quickly moved outside to sit so we could hear each other talk. It was very laid back and nice sitting outside in their large patio area. We placed our food orders via a QR code. Food was delivered to our table without any issues.

Came in tonight and had the blackened chicken linguine and coconut shrimp. So good and great staff. Thank you Shaylyn, Tawny and Tyler!

I came here but it looked too busy. This place has an arcade so i decided to try it out. I cant give a fair review bc I haven't gone inside. From the outside it looks busy and there are plenty of outdoor seats. This is a neat idea for bars to have an arcade. Just one thing I don't really like is the strip club next door. Not really my thing, but the place looks hipster.

Cool dive bar, the girls behind the bar were super fun and attentive, Rayne was our bartender and she made us awesome drinks. Will come back to try the food!

Can't say much since last time. But I didn't know they had breakfast and it looks and taste good

Went there with my friend Chris a couple days ago and the burger I had with fries was absolutely delicious! We also played three games of pool and even though it wasn't the weekend they had all kind of different sports on multiple TVs... Nice crowd in there and the bartender I think her name was Ashley was super sweet very attentive and the service was great! didn't really play the pinball because we were more interested in playing pool and the pool tables were in great shape and the pool cues were nice and straight... I love the ambience because it was pretty game friendly all in all. I highly recommend this place for playing some fun games and some really good pub grub!

This is a killer bar and restaurant to go to with friends that like to have fun. They have all of the sports games on and UFC events. They have a full bar and a quite surprisingly sophisticated and delicious menu of food items. It has changed a lot over the years, but it is an incredibly fun and delicious bar and grill to go to Not to mention, they have a full range of arcade, games, and pool tables which I will challenge you anytime bring it

Stephanie is awesome took care of our orders fast even on a fight night best service ever

Went to Brewskis Bar and Arcade last night with some friends and had an awesome experience. Stephanie was the bartender that served us and she was amazing, great smile, super friendly, and such a positive attitude. She made us feel welcome right away and really added to the fun. Drinks were on point, service was quick, and she checked in at just the right times. l'll be a regular thanks to Stephanie!

I went here yesterday with my friend to play pool. They have three pool tables, after a bit of a wait one was free. We bought 20 tokens for $5, which is 5 games worth. My cue was cracked and hers wasn't straight, plus the felt on our table was pretty worn, but we had fun nonetheless. I got an order of mozzarella sticks which were pretty tasty. All the staff was very kind and attentive. I'd like to return and try some other games.

Great beer selection and lots of pinball machines. Ton of TVs too so you can watch the game. Awesome bartender who seems like a favorite amongst the regulars. Looks like they have a beer pong tournament every Wednesday at 9pm which sounds like a blast! I wish I lived closer to the area because I would be here every week!

I LOVE Brewski's! Been coming for a while now and it is a fun, laid back bar with a ton of arcade games, including an AWESOME pinball lineup that rotates. But, the service and the food are the best!I am always treated so kindly by friendly bartenders. I actually reqally like the food. I've had good fish and chips, sandwiches, and the bowl of tots are perfectly cooked and you get a ton so it is a shareable! They have sushi, but I haven't tried that yet. Kind of nervous for sushi as bar food? We tend to go there with the specific intent to play pinball and usually run into people we know, so it's always fun. Plus they host pinball tournaments! They have long hours from 11am to 2am. Love it! Friendly and fun location.

Just want to say thank you to Stephanie! She made a reunion of friends amazing. Her service surpassed my expectations, this is the 2nd time I have been here this year and I definitely will be coming back more often. Great drinks, great surprise shots, good music chosen by the people. I love it there!!

A. Pinball (and the new D&D one!) B. Board games (ok, you have to bring your own) C. Specials - I like specials D. Friendly Bartenders - like, super nice E. Mario Cart - I will crush you F. Mozz sticks mmmm...cheese Sunday nights are half priced pinball. Shhh...don't tell anyone. Oh wait... drat, I just did.

Erin does a great job! The food, sports, and activities are phenomenal! I strongly recommend this place"!

excellent bar! a must! good mix crowd. bartenders go over the top to give great service. super friendly shout out to the best friendliest bartenders, stephanie, lauren , megan, rain, diego, the best service you can get. they make you feel at home even if it's your first time being there. food is over the top. some of the best wings i;'ve had in a long time.

Brewski's is a cheap dive bar but sooo much fun! Hard to catch up with people if you're trying to converse but the vibes are perfect for lighthearted fun and sport watching. Drinks and food are decent and reasonably priced.

Went to Brewskis Bar and Arcade for the first time last night with some friends and had an awesome experience. Stephanie was the bartender that served us and she was amazing, great smile, super friendly, and such a positive attitude. She made us feel welcome right away and really added to the fun. Drinks were on point, service was quick, and she checked in at just the right times. First time here, but definitely won't be the last I'll be a regular thanks to Stephanie!

Brewskis has really come a long way.. I like how there are a variety of games in the arcade and they are places at both ends of the room. We really enjoyed their classic burger and garlic fries were soooooooo gooood!! I also liked how I could request my wing's crispy, wish it had a tad bit more buffalo sauce. I complimented the bartender cause she made our Cadillac margaritas perfectly strong. I loaded $50pn my game card I'll definitely be coming back soon.

Try the Aaron roll. It surprised me! Also, great ambiance and a fun place to play pool with friends. The only thing that sucked was the beer pong machine. I think it was broken.

My absolute favorite bar! The drinks are great, the vibes are great, the customer service is great. Nice to come on a weekend or a weekday. They have lots of fun games to play, they play good music, and have plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. The service is always really quick and they have a photo booth inside as well. My favorite cocktail is the strawberry lemonade. Haven't had the chance to try out the food but that just gives me another reason to come back!

Went here September 11. Had a great experience with Tyler. However at the end of the night, a male bartender with dark hair ranted all about how incapable his female coworkers were. How the women in the bar couldn't even do anything for themselves and how he had to do everything for them. He continued to belittle his female coworkers. Not to mention that he directed this conversation only to my boyfriend the entire time. He never even made eye contact with me. I'm very shocked that Brewski's would allow someone like this to work there. Stick to good people like Tyler.

Visiting from out of town and this has been one of the best bar experiences I've had in SD in ages. Great staff, cheap drinks, incredible environment. Angelina was the f**kin best I wish the bartenders in my neighborhoods were as friendly and thorough as she was.

Brewskis RULES! I am a pinball fanatic. This is THE PLACE in SD for the latest, greatest pins! Add full bar and solid menu, it's irresistible! I keep coming back and am never disappointed. BREWSKI'S! WOOT!

Nice dive vibe, prices are ok, a lot of games to play. If only the dart board was updated lol

Came here a couple of times and had a blast! I want to shoutout Stephanie for getting me the best night caps down south.. I'll be back!!

A unique and fun spot to grab drinks with an arcade, pool, outside-covered seating, and plenty of TVs! They also have a large selection of food menu items. My buddies and I came here for the Usman v. Edwards fight, and this place was packed inside and outside. The line was out the door to order drinks, and it was an overall fun spot to watch the fights. Unfortunately, they were understaffed when we arrived, and only one bartender poured drinks and bussed food. As time went by, three other employees arrived to help out. I felt super bad for the gal and reflected on poor management. We all ordered food at the table and didn't wait too long. I ordered the wings ($13.99), buffalo, and orange sauce. I was super hungry, but they were cold and not super flavorful. We had the carne asada tater tots, and that was pretty mid; we barely ate it.

This hidden gem is unequivocally one of my favorite spots in SD. Great bar food and perfectly-maintained pinball machines? CHECK. Efficient, fun bartenders? CHECK. Clean bathrooms? CHECK. Chill regular crowd? CHECK. Plenty of parking and they don't tow if you overdo it and need to Lyft home? CHECK. Lots of tv's with a variety of sports? CHECK. Purse hooks and power outlets under the bar? CHECK AND CHECK! Best Friday to Sunday bartender EVER? ASHLEY. CHECK. This one-army woman can scan and cover a full bar, party, pool folks, and outside. She is a speed machine getting to everyone and ensuring all customers are happy. She sets reasonable expectations for food timing, knows the menu and drink availability off the cuff, and always has a smile. She sincerely brings joy to my favorite watering hole.

Great vibes, awesome arcade games, tasty drinks, and friendly staff--perfect for a fun night out!

First time here came on a Thursday to watch some football must say the service was amazing Stephanie is the shit and the drinks were awesome got some wings and jalapeno poppers.....also fire!! Definitely coming back and if your thinking of coming here highly recommend forgot to mention they got pool tables dart on top of the pinball and arcades. Definitely a dope ass place!!!

Fun bar, I have been here a few times. Every time THE FOOD is sooo good! The nachos, sushi, seafood, tacos, it's all very good. The drinks are strong and the vibe is fun.

Went in tonight to relax and wasn't planning to eat, as I had dinner somewhere else. When I saw one of the specials was avocado green aquachile, I ordered it, as it is rarely offered. It was so good. The shrimp was very fresh and the sauce had the right amount of kick to it. When ever the head chef, Maria, offers a special, it is worth getting. I will always make room for these specials as when it's gone, it's gone. Very good and thank you.

The Mac burger was good. I liked it. Cooked perfectly. The Mac and cheese was ok. I have had other Mac and cheese that was better but it was ok. The tots were cooked perfectly. Crunchy and delicious. They have a taco plate but you can't order individual tacos. Great selection of pinball games and other arcade games. They take quarters so either bring some or use their change machine.

Just had our company with KMBO and it was awesomeeee!! Staff and service were great. Food was so yummy! And the vibes were def there

This place is pretty awesome! It's located off of Miramar tucked in a plaza. Parking was tight in front of the building, but there were plenty of spots on the side and behind. The inside was spacious and surprisingly clean. There were plenty of bartenders who were prompt and polite. We didn't indulge in playing pool or arcade games this time but did enjoy the outdoor patio. It was super spacious and had heaters. The food and drinks were solid. Would definitely return when in the area.

If you want to go to a very casual and open bar with some friends I highly recommend Brewski's! Not only are they open late but they serve food, alcohol, and have a ton of games such as pool, Mario kart, and air hockey to keep yourself occupied. They also have an outdoor section which I thought was really cool.

Atmosphere and hospitality is amazing at Brewski! Best food and drinks and friendly service!!!

The only reason I come here is for the staff lowkey. Angel, Lauren, and CJ are always cool and welcoming if you're coming in or up to the bar. Bartenders are all super attentive! But like the drinks are also super cheap as well for San Diego

I've been here twice now! The first time was to shoot some pool and play with a few of the arcade games. The second time, I actually ordered a snack, after attending a birthday party nearby. I chose the pretzel, which was pretty good! The garlic fries were nice and crispy! Others ordered the Caesar salad, a burger with onion rings, a Cuban sandwich, chicken kabob, and the spaghetti and meatballs. Everything looked really tasty! Everyone enjoyed what they ordered, so I think there bar food was better than I thought it would be. Service was also nice and friendly.

Meeting new ppl and playing some card games. Nice big place with arcades games and three pool tables, and taps of beers across the wall. Meeting new people and have fun playing at the tables!! I have no idea there is so many different type of games out there. It being a real eye opener exploring the game!! And the food here is delicious!!

I had a beer here on a Monday night. It wasn't too lively, but has a good amount of games! Mario kart and a pool table. They have both beer and cocktails so that was nice. It was just a little warm in there given the summer heat!

We finally got a chance to stop by Brewski's, and it happened to be the same night as a Padres game, so you knew already it'd be packed! They check IDs at the door - 21+ only! - PARKING - Fairly decent sized lot in front of the business but there's also other spots available in the rest of the strip mall. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - Service was fairly quick, even with the big crowd of people. There's outdoor tables and indoor tables, as well as TV screens on basically every single wall, so that no matter where you're looking, you have an angle. There's also drink holders scattered around the game area which is nice when you don't want to hold your drink. - DRINKS/EXPERIENCE - We had some of their draft beer and I was satisfied with the range of options they had. One of our friends got Cocktails and the Lavender Gin Sour was pretty good, even though I'm not a huge fan of Lavender. It looks like reviews a few years back mentioned the games being free, but that's not the case anymore. Most of the games are $0.25 - $1. There are 3 pool tables available as well. We didn't get a chance to grab any food, but it definitely smelled and looked good! Will have to try some the next time we come back. - OVERALL - A fun spot to hang out with friends, or obviously when there's a game going on, it's a nice environment to get rowdy at.

The vibes are great. Love that there's so much to do here with the arcade games and pool tables compared to a regular bar. The food isn't bad either. Definitely a nice fun spot for a date night or when out with friends.

Came here on a Saturday night with a few friends to grab some quick drinks and play games. Unlike most places, drinks will usually run you anywhere from $12-$20 for one drink. 6 drinks for $45 is such a steal in my opinion. Since we came here on a Saturday, it was a little busy. I enjoyed the arcade games and liked the option to purchase a game card to play. If you want cheap drinks this is your place to go. Docking one star only cause the place itself was a little messy
