Gilman Brewing Company Taproom and Gastropub

Friendly, helpful service, nice decor and ambiance, great beer selection, and we enjoyed our food: the cheese pizza, and braised Brussels sprouts. We saw the Brussels sprouts on the online menu, but didn’t see it at the ordering console onsite – the cashier was able to order it for us. This is a good option for eating before a movie. The food comes out quickly, and it’s right next to the garage south of the theater.

Structure and street parking is available. Small tasting room. There are lots of beers on tap. Good deep dish pizza. The only thing I didn't like was that some customers take longer to order on the tablet.

This was a a good place in Daly City. The food was really good, maybe a bit overpriced. The wings were pretty good. The flavor was great, but they were a bit chewy and slightly undercooked. The calamari was really good and so where the blistered peppers. The beers were inventive, but nothing blew my mind. The cherry hard seltzer was nice. The staff was great and the environment was welcoming with a lot of natural light. Also the owner/management don't seem to take constructive criticism very well. May give it another try next time I am in town from Portland. Update: I was going to order some food for a friend in the area to pick up. 21$ for a cheeseburger(pickles/lettuce/sauce) and fries in a box! What! Add in gratuity and you are looking at 25$. I get it that restaurants need to get out of the hole, but that is a bit much. Maybe, just maybe that price is justified while dining there for the service and ambiance which is pretty nice. For about the same price, get a burger to go from Harris'. Lol

Just stopped in for a beer. West coast IPA called Freedom Hazy. It was excellent. I wish I was hungry as the Detroit style pizza smelled amazing.

Had the Belgium quad and was alright, not as hoppy and uplifting as the traditional Belgium Trappists ales. Shortrib Burger was subpar. Meat patty wasn’t seasoned well and was quite bland in the middle. Truffle fries didn’t have any hint of truffle flavor to it. Skip this option. Also not a fan of the ketchup as it’s too sweet. Chicken sandwich is better than the burger, but keep in mind it’s pretty heavy. Not the crunchy skin you’d expect from a fried chicken sando. Service is excellent though as the young wait staff are attentive, polite, and kind. Food definitely isn’t worth the price. Will need to come back and try the other beers to determine if this will be a regular bar staple in our neighborhood. 3/5

I am very happy to have a brewery so close now. I have been waiting for ever for this place to open. Apparently tho they have been open longer than they seemed. I always thought they were closed because of the caution tape outside... Regardless, my wife and I went in and enjoyed the atmosphere. The decor is very thoughtfully chosen and quality. It feels like every detail was thought out! We sat at the bar and got to see flury of food made by some very professional looking and kind chefs that knew what they were doing. The one downside was the wait staff. We weren't really taken care of until a chef pointed to us, and didn't get our drinks til later. Something they need to clean up. They were friendly though! We ordered calamari to split, and....oh...my...gosh. My wife said this was the best calamari she ever had. I'd have to say it was the most flavorful I've had. But for me, best also factors in price. I was a little saddened to see the amount we got for the price. In sum: I really want this place to succeed. I believe they have a lot of components that add up to a very popular and successful restaurant. My hope is that they get some more things streamline and set in place.

Visited yesterday after watching movie with family at nearby theatre. Beer and food were great. High top tables are OK for two people but small for our family of four. We got two pizzas and appetizer so table space was tight. Service was quite poor, guy wouldn’t allow us to push two tables together so we had to put pizzas on chairs. His reasoning was that it was going to get busy but place was pretty empty. Not sure if this place will survive at this location but not family friendly.

I’m not sure 🤔 how my total went to $79+ for two order of pizza and one small glass of their guava beer and a bottle of root beer , I just saw my bank statement today and i was kinda surprised on our bill . I should’ve ask for a receipt but the guy who took our order is kinda dry like he’s getting forced to work there ,not even smiling .
