Cerberus Brewing Company

My experience today at Cerberus Brewing Company was excellent in every way. The restaurant and brewery offer several seating areas both indoor and an outdoor patio, one covered and one open. The atmosphere is comfortable and clean. They have plenty of convenient parking at the entrance and also bicycle parking. I called in my order for takeout and was given a 15 minute ready time. When I arrived I was greeted immediately by a gentleman at the host stand; and he left to get my order when I gave him my name. During that time, a server pleasantly greeted other guests and seated them. As I was waiting, the bartender, who was bring food to the bar also greeted me and asked if I had been helped. I certainly was impressed with the staff’s awareness and professionalism. My order was quickly delivered and I paid. Before I left, I casually asked about the beer and the gentleman shared a few comments and then invited me to try a few samples, which I did. What a great opportunity to introduce your product to a new customer! We ordered the Brisket grilled cheese, the Cuban and the Pastrami rolls. The two sandwiches were outstanding and although good, I thought it was a sandwich, like a lobster roll, not like an, “egg roll”, which it was. Overall, I definitely would recommend this establishment as the service, food, beer and atmosphere all score high in my opinion. Kudos to the management and staff! Sorry no pics of the food, we were so hungry we forgot!

The beer is fantastic! I had the Elysium IPA, Lager, and a taste of the Bourbon Barrel aged Barley Wine. All were fantastic, particularly the Barley Wine….but high ABV. So be careful! I had the Brisket Burger, which was a bit dry. Place has a hole in the wall vibe. They have a military night Monday, one free beer! They also do a “crappy hour” when the temp goes below 25…25% off your tab! Looks like they have a lot of outdoor areas for when the weather is nice.

Really enjoyed the potato fries! They were so delicious. Had the half brisket sandwich and soup of the day. It was italian wedding aoup - it was good! A little too salty for my taste but still good. The beetwich sandwich was good too - definitely on the sweeter side. Enjoyed the green chile soup!

Cerberus was a great place to stop in for a burger. They also have a wide variety of drink menu here. Great location conveniently located on the corner with street parking plus private parking around back. To my surprise there was a smoker pit going in the rear parking lot today where they smoke their brisket. Such a rare sight these days surprising and pleasant. I was greeted by friendly staff the moment I walked in the door. I definitely felt welcome and at home the entire dining experience. I ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger to my surprise came out as a double meat Patty so all I can say is be ready the burgers are big. Great flavor on the burger very Savory with a hint of sweetness and the brioche bun is always my preferred favorite. This restaurant offers outdoor seating and a beer garden as well as indoor seating. This entire facility was very neat organized and clean. I would recommend Cerberus for a great dining experience.

Great place to stop for a beer and food. Dog friendly. Service was great. Beer was fantastic. The only thing I would change is the amount of acidity in the vinaigrette dressing. The burger and everything else was A+

First visit to Ceberus Brewery. Enjoyed a brisket grilled cheese and soup with a Johnny Marrzen beer. Grilled cheese, soup, and beer were all excellent. Service was a bit slow and could have been more welcoming. I will be back to try some of the other beers.

We went for brunch because it was recommended online. I don’t think brunch is their specialty. There were only a couple things to choose from, it lacked seasoning and they don’t have jelly. They do have delicious mimosas and you get one free if you show up before 11:00 and ask for it. The service was phenomenal.

Julia was outstanding! She struck the perfect balance of professionalism and personality — attentive without hovering, friendly without being over the top. Our drinks stayed full, our food arrived right on time, and she handled everything with a great sense of humor. It’s rare to find service that feels both efficient and genuinely warm. We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll be asking for Julia!

Staff was great and welcoming. Just had beer this time. Staff had great knowledge of beer and what to compare it to. Definitely will come back here again!

Food is good. My dinner was slightly overcooked, but the cheese ale spaetzel was quite good. The seasonal beets were not to my liking. Service was excellent. Wait person was quite attentive. Ambiance is good. Outside seating looks nice. Inside had good music.

I was so busy enjoying the food and beers I forgot to get a few photos. I had the hero protagonist. It was delicious. The friends I was with got a flight and said all of their selection were awesome. We got the Colorado Poutine to share which was amazing. I have never had any app like it. I liked it better than regular poutine. But I am not a huge fan of gravy but I am a lover of cheese and the sauce is a cheese sauce/gravy. We also got the smoked brisket grilled cheese and agin was delicious and I have never had a sandwich that had that flavor composition. It was quite unique. I can't wait to come back and try more beers and food!

Between my husband and I, we sampled 7 beers and 1 seltzer. Each one was delicious and well done. Additionally the food is great, and they treated our dog so well!

I have got to say, I was a little let down by my food at Cerberus. The drink options were tasty, but when it came down to the food I feel like they missed the mark. Starting with the soup dumplings, I was so excited to find a vegetarian soup dumpling, but then I was shocked to see that they didn't contain soup or had any soup served around them. They were actually incredibly dry and overcooked. I then had the beetroot with added smoke tofu and a gluten free bun. I deeply appreciated that they had a smoked tofu option- this sounded amazing. But the tofu was fried and overcooked, and I could barely bite through it because it was so chewy. I had to remove it from the sandwich because it kept pulling out. I then had to remove the beets because these were undercooked and had the same issue. The sandwich had so much potential, but it was missing flavor and the textures made it difficult to eat. Overall the menu sounded amazing, but the execution needs a little love. The gluten free buns were appreciated though!

The beer was pretty good! I got a flight and loved the pumpkin and hazy boi. My husband got the Heffe and said it was one of the best he's had. The food was ehh. Definitely the best were the Ruben egg rolls! We both got the brisket grilled cheese which was far too dry. I'm not sure what was happening in the kitchen but the food took forever! We ended up having to eat quickly and then close out to head up to the academy for a game.

Could do with less ice to be entirely completely and absolutely 100 percent honest with this review

Came here after a long day with my husband and kids and it did not disappoint. The servers were friendly and the food was delish. All the beers we tried were great too. The vibes were chill and friendly. Will definitely come back.

Pub atmosphere, cozy and friendly! Our server, Eric, seated us immediately and was very friendly and helpful (loved his handle bar mustache!). We ordered drinks: a Hefeweizen draft deer for the hubby and a Medusa cocktail ($12 centenario plata + cointreau + prickly pear + lime) for me. The Medusa was a gorgeous hot pink, like a dry prickly pear margarita. Delicious and not very sweet. We wanted to try & share a couple of dishes, so we ordered the Reuben Rolls ($15 - corned beef pastrami + beer kraut + swiss + house dressing) & a Smoked Brisket Grilled Cheese ($19 - house smoked brisket + green chili cheese spread + caramelized onion + arugula + sourdough) with a side of Southern Pickled Vegetables. The Ruben Rolls were basically 3 Ruben Egg-rolls, cut in halves on a diagonal, with a delicious house dressing on the side for dipping. The sandwich had lots of incredible smoked brisket (made in-house) and was sooo good! The pickled veggies were VERY vinegary - my husband loved them. We will definitely be back!

Stopped by for a drink and a snack after visiting Manitou Springs. We got a flight to try some beers. All were good, but the devil in a red dress was outstanding! The beer cheese with pretzels was my favorite from my time in Colorado. The fries were also delicious! They have a great patio, with lots of seating options. I would definitely recommend a stop here!

Cool spot on the way back from Manitou Springs with a nice outdoor patio and tented Biergarten area, both dog friendly. Tried a Scottish ale, brown ale, and oatmeal stout. We both agreed we liked the oatmeal stout the best.

This is in the top 10 restaurants I've ever been to! Uhhh mazing!!! Poutine is the best I've ever had! One of the best burgers I've ever eaten! And the salmon dish was phenomenal!! Their beer is delicious!! Get a flight and see what you like. The Amber was my favorite! Service was completely on point! Great environment! Just an Awesome place!!

The food and drinks were delicious! The outside seating is comfortable and fun. Super pet friendly - they offer a "puppy patty" and a water station!

Stopped by before checking out Garden of the Gods for a quick lunch. We split the pub pretzels - the beer cheese and mustard were great accompaniments to the nice and salty pretzel pieces. I enjoyed the seasonal fall harvest salad with pear and goat cheese, and my husband had the Cuban sandwich with a side salad. Portions were perfect and service easy friendly. My husband enjoyed the juicy IPA and kolsch, I am pregnant so just had a Diet Coke but they did have 3 NA beer options from Unfiltered Art available which is always nice to see.

My server Jenna was super attentive. She suggested the Truffle Pubs and I also got the classic double pub burger and let me tell you.... BOMM.COM The Alcohol beverages was tasty as well

Parking is a breeze as this brew pub conveniently owns their own lot. Huge outdoor area and roomy enough inside area with lively bar seating as well. They serve your casual pub fare and hard liquor along with their craft beer. I sat at the bar and left the tab open with the intention of trying something else should the first brew prove worthy. Said brew ended up being the Double Dry Hopped Elysium DIPA (54 IBU, 9% ABV). This IPA was anything but worthy and somewhat disappointing for the palate especially as their most highly rated beer on the board (per Untappd). This was pure malt and straight booze with a lingering stale after taste (i.e. the beer was old). At $1 per ounce ($10 for the 10oz pour), it was a hard pill to swallow. Oh, how I yearn for a better brewery but it be all the way in Denver.

Good spot to grab a brew. A lot of their own on tap. They also had a full page cocktail menu which most breweries don't have. Reuben rolls were a bit too crunchy. Wings had a good amount of meat on them. Brisket grill cheese could have a bit better meat to cheese ratio.

I am mixed on a 4 or a 3 star here! But overall am an optimist when it comes to the restaurant world as so much is day to day change. Servers and staff all come across as very friendly and atmosphere is open area nicely spaced outside. Food is all fresh ingredients and pretty tasty. Strange operationally though - you have to get your own water and although not busy, all parts took a very long time...getting drinks, getting the food, check, etc.

Was given recommendations to swing by here by some locals we have a lift down the mountain after their marathon. Was quite busy but we waited with a cold beer. Say outside and grabbed some door which was very tasty and well presented.. weather was great so made it even nicer to be outside in the CO sunshine. They had a large private party there and it was pretty busy but overall was a great experience. Will definitely come back when next in Co Sp..

Cerberus is my go-to good food and good beer brewery in the Springs. It ranks in my top five for best ramen bowls (Smoked Duck Ramen) and my favorite comfort food (Brisket Grilled Cheese). They always have good beers - both classic styles and experimental (Grandma's Chancla - a Mexican hot chocolate style porter is a good one if you can get it when you're here) I'll be back over and over again.

Have been in a couple of times over the years. Stopped in for lunch. Cozy but clean. Outdoor seating available. Dog friendly. We shared the brisket grilled cheese with an upgrade to Parmesan garlic fries. Delicious and would order again. But the sandwich and fries came to nearly $25. No drinks. Pricey.

Very nice brewery near old Colorado city. Lots of great beer/cocktail and nonalcoholic options as well as tasty appetizers. I came here for the first time recently and really enjoyed myself. The altbier (amber) was robust and flavorful, with a malty finish and low bitterness. The bartender was kind enough to handpick another beer for me based on my preferences which was a saison. Sweet, yet somewhat dry, fruity finish and not as intense as a cider. I enjoyed both tremendously! I also sampled some of the potato wedges and pretzels, both were amazing. The ambiance is fantastic outside by the fire pit. Great place for a casual get together.

Great beer. Just need to season the food. Duck ramen was great smoked duck in a bowl of water. Kids Mac n cheese tasted like a bowl of unseasoned cheese

Oh, I wish that I could give this place five stars. The ambiance is great, the service is good, and food is delicious. They don't mark their menu for gluten-free, gluten-friendly, or items able to be slightly modified. Cerberus has gluten-free bread. Celebrate it! Cerberus please update your menu! It's frustrating. If the dish is naturally gluten-free or you have an option, mark it, it's not that difficult. This would allow me and others will allergies to review the menu in private and make an informed selection on our own, just like everyone else (instead of being treated like a second-class diner). The Spicy Pork Bahn Mi on gluten-free toast was amazing. You must try it. Really good. It's the sweet spot of not-too-spicy, but spicy enough. I was able to have a plain-jane side salad (topped with roasted chickpeas). And I washed it down with a Schilling Grapefruit Cider. If I'm ever in the area again, I will stop at Cerberus.

Solid craft brewery with a good selection and several different styles of beer. Nice outdoor area to enjoy with friends (or your dogs). Friendly enough service. Good location. Ample parking. Festive atmosphere. Worth a visit for all craft beer aficionados .

Awesome time as always, brought the dog on a rainy day RJ enjoy the coveted patio and we're welcomed with a good Ayer bowl for Ranger, and fresh made treats for the little man. Amazing food as always and a great beer selection. Shared the Breakfast taco special and enjoyed some Rueben rolls. Thanks Chloe for the awesome service!

The food was good but VERY pricy... The environment was just what you look for in a brewery. However I was disappointed they were out of a lot of their beers. The service was also very slow considering there were lots of staff around.

Great food, beer and environment. It was family friendly but could also be a nice date spot. The service was very good as well.

The food and brews were great! We enjoyed the dog friendly environment and our pup even enjoyed a puppy patty! The waitresses were so sweet and kind.

I enjoy their beer and the patio. The kitchen has gone downhill fast. Wait times are insane for anything. I worked in restaurants for 20 years and I have a lot of patience but I was told at 12:30 they were out of multiple items, then ordered something I didn't want bc I was hungry after a hike and after waiting a crazy long time they sent out a dry burger with no sauce and cold mushrooms. Sent back. Servers are wonderful and I'm sorry they have to tolerate this. I may go back for a drink or two but I won't be eating there anymore. This has happened too many times. Bummer.

Good food, the brisket grilled cheese is great, the Ruben egg rolls are ok. The burger is good, but the ketchup and BBQ are weird, the Cuban is the best that I ever had! Good beer selection, good service, good atmosphere!

The place to go if you have guests in town. Cerberus offers great beers (Elysius if you like hoppy ones) and other drinks if you so chose. The food is amazing. Reuben egg rolls, lamb sliders, brisket grilled cheese, So Co burger was my choice tonight and I loved it. A lamb burger. Don't like lamb? It doesn't taste like it! Much better then beef! The Shashito peppers are so flavorful. Sad I had to share them! Served with Mayo and a hot sauce so the flavor could be as spicy as you like. We left stuffed and took some home besides.

This brewery is amazing! If you like IPAs get the Elysium!! Also, check out the tap room across the street 7's Gate! They have 20 beers on tap and many bottles and cans from around the world. Incredible!

Came for a quick beer with a friend, was not disappointed! Beer came highly recommended by locals that we met at other breweries. Tomahawk phoenix sour was my favorite sour I've tried at any brewery in the springs! Our bartender Myles was sweet and attentive.

We came here after visiting nearby Garde on the Gods and enjoyed their outdoor beer garden space. Most of the tables were taken by folks enjoying the nice weather accompanied by friends and pooches alike. The staff was very friendly, attentive, and helpful with food and beer recommendations. I got their pilsner and it was very good, not too harsh or hoppy. For my meal I enjoyed their classic burger - it was an elevated, well-executed take on your typical burger with fresh lettuce, delicious melty cheese, and a perfectly cooked ground beef patty, all served with huge potato wedge fries. There is a small parking lot located behind the main building, otherwise some nearby street parking is available.

A delightful neighborhood restaurant and bar. They have a great selection of beers and an eclectic set of menu offerings that are almost certain to please just about everyone. There's a huge outside seating area, and the inside isn't bad if the weather isn't cooperating. Our Niece and Nephew, who live in town, picked this place out. They go there a lot. And now, we will too, whenever we're in town again.

To start, we walked in and weren't acknowledged by anyone despite the "Wait for the host to be seated" sign. Once the host did greet us, he barely said a word to us as he brought us to our table outside. The horrible service from the hosts almost made us leave and it took awhile to get served at all but once we did, we were SO HAPPY. Kayla (our server) was amazing and every beer we tried was so good. We will be back for sure for the beer garden and the friendly waitress -- but this is 4 stars because of our first 10 minutes there.

It's good but it could be great. The beer is very good and the staff is super friendly. Great Atmosphere as well with good music. The food could be better, I had a special of potato soup and a bbq sandwich. Sandwich was great but the potato soup was a little sour, not sure if prepared that day but it wasn't great. Overall a great place to grab a beer.

One of our all time favorite breweries in springs. We don't live on that side it town but frequently find our self's driving out. Their beer is awesome. And the pretzel knots and smoked brisket grilled Cheese is beyond worth it!!!

Cerberus is THE place to go in Colorado Springs for Fantastic Beer, Fantastic View, Fantastic Service. Do Not Pass Cerberus By! Most importantly the beers are FANTASTIC! Whatever you favorites are...they've got. And if by chance they don't Peyton the manager will recommend according to your tastes! A Cherry Belgian was THE beer! Service was FANTASTIC! Aside from Peyton...Olivia was just so EXCELLENT as our server. So kind, so nice, so helpful, so "EVERYTHING" Atmosphere, Vibe, Chill, Enjoyment...just a few adjectives to describe Cerberus!

Terrible service! The "manager" (come to find out is the shift supervisor) is horribly rude, condescending and very unaccommodating. (In an empty restaurant) Felt bad for the wait staff, who tried to help and offer great solutions, but all was shut down due to the shift supervisors ego. Won't be back

Loved this spot! After it was recommended to us by our broista at Dutch bros coffee, we headed straight here for lunch. A great variety of vegetarian options and different types of beers! Genuinely the best cauliflower bites I have had in years. A fun atmosphere that was laid back and casual that our group needed after traveling all day. Definitely a spot I would visit again in the future!

So far, this is my favorite brewery patio in town. I know I still have a lot more to try. But so far, this is it. Great, friendly service. Delicious food choices. And incredible beer options!

Great location with an inviting patio. Food is fabulous and servers are very helpful with matching a beer to your tastes!

Lunch was great so was the service, however, once a again our server Kate S added a 20% gratuity even after I gave her 120 dollars in cash without disclosing the policy. Pretty crappy thing to do,to put me out 200 dollars.

Love everything about Cerberus- food is delicious, unique. Service is always spot on. This is a fun and a happy place to eat and they are dog friendly what's not to love

Interesting food menu, very nice space, good beer selection. They had a little window over the operations and that was cool to see. Off-menu kids options were pretty good. The beer all had this same odd yeast flavor to it, from the ESB to the tripel, and I would assume it's just the yeast they use. I don't know. It added a unique flavor to the saison but was pretty weird on the ESB. It would be great to come here with good weather though so I would come back.

i went her with my daughter and it was so much fun good food times and beer i only thing that I didn't really like was all the kids around but what6 you goanna do

Great beers, great patio, and good food! Highly recommend the wings and Cesar salad, and grabbing a lager on the patio. Dog friendly as well!
