Harland Brewing Co - Scripps Ranch

Edit Sept. 2025 Ube Day was a huge hit. Easy access to pickup 4 packs before a nice major event. They always have tasty beers and a good vibe to watch Padres games.

I used to love this place—the beer is excellent and I’ve visited many times, both alone and with colleagues, always having a great experience. But yesterday, when I came with my family, I had a very disappointing encounter. While we were enjoying our time, one of the servers came over and complained that my 3-year-old son was screaming and that he “couldn’t take it anymore.” This was upsetting and completely ruined our evening. We frequently visit breweries and restaurants across San Diego, and this is the first time we’ve ever experienced something like this. What do you expect from a 2–3-year-old child? Kids play and sometimes make noise—that’s normal. If children aren’t welcome, the establishment should clearly mention it. A 3-year-old cannot be quiet all the time, and families deserve to know if kids aren’t truly welcome here. Because of this experience, I won’t recommend this place for families

We didn't know there's a this good brewery near us! Their drinks are so special!!! I definitely recommend some unique flavors - Ube milkshake IPA, Melona Sour, and Tropical Fluff are amazing! Please come here to try their really unique and delicious drinks! Plus their space are fun, they have pool tables and many game machines.

I had a great time with my friends I like the beer, I ordered Rising Petals and a Big Chick Energy and both were great. Went with friends and played some arcade games, also they are pet friendly and had pool tables

Love their West Coast IPA and the beertender service is excellent. Came here on a busy Thursday night with both kids and the pup. Even with a biotech Meetup event happening I never waited more than 2 min for a beer when a small lined formed at the bar. 🙌🏼 Kids had a great time playing around the corn hole set and with the arcade games. Poseidon Project was serving up delicious wood fire pies 🍕 . We had the Hot Honey and it was 🔥🤌🏼

Nice place! Went for a get together with a group. Have the PB Banana Brown and it was very tasty. Also had a shwarzbier German black and it was nice.

Tasty beer. Great selection

New to town Harland brewery is coming in strong. Delicious beers, doubles and a colab with monstera already. Harland brewing found the nitch that ballast point had and (sold out and lost) Amazing open happy vibe here makes me feel like I’ve been going here for years. Ca t wait to see this place grow. They’ve got my vote. The hazy double and west coast double is bomb. Oktoberfest is one of the better ones I’ve had.

Harland Brewery is a gem for beer lovers seeking a fun and welcoming atmosphere. The vibe is effortlessly cool, with an environment that makes it a perfect to catch up with friends! They also have a couple games! Indoor/outdoor space. The staff are friendly and approachable, always ready to recommend a brew or just chat about the selection. Shoutout to duh KENJI for my sour recs hahaha you're the best! Also it's dog-friendly indoors & out, so you can enjoy your beer with your child or meet other peoples children. Whether you're there to try unique craft beers, catch up with friends, or just enjoy the ambiance, Harland Brewery delivers a fantastic experience. A must-visit if you're into laid-back vibes and great drinks! It's in the middle of a business center so try not to give up on finding it.

Harland Brewing in Scripps Ranch is basically an extension of the Brewamar cluster of microbreweries situated east of the I-15. They offer a pretty wide variety of brews, and the space is expansive. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy a nice afternoon. I tried two of their brews, both of which were very outstanding. Having been to many of the local microbreweries, I must say I am impressed!

The location of this brewery is super random. It feels like its tucked in between some corporate offices. Whoever works near there, I am jealous. This spot is pretty cool with great vibes. Very spacious indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of TVs and games and its dog friendly. Ample parking (just make sure you read the sign as to where you can park). The service is quick and the beer is excellent. They also have a pizza maker out there making fresh pizzas. I only wish they had high chair for kids.

I've had some concerning experiences with a bartender at your establishment that I believe are racially motivated. On several occasions, this bartender has been consistently rude and dismissive towards me and other people of Indian descent. He never smiles, always appears grumpy, and acts uninterested in serving us. Most recently, I attempted to purchase a 4-pack of beer. When I asked if I could sample the beer first, he told me they ran out of that particular beer on draft the day before. However, I clearly saw several other patrons drinking the same beer at that moment. This discrepancy, coupled with his past behavior, leads me to believe his actions are discriminatory. I've attached a photo of the bartender that I found on social media. I hope you will investigate this matter thoroughly.

Love their IPA, reasonable price & spacious place to hangout. Plenty of room for parking

I love this location! They have a huge parking lot. The workers are so friendly too. They also have food trucks after 4pm I believe. Big fan of their ube beers!

Simply put, my favorite local brewery. Line is to purchase their limited release beers

I happen to come here one day to just grab beer to go. I end up staying for dinner and having a beer too. I discovered Harland actually through just buying beer at a store. I really enjoyed their Lager so thinking it might be better to just get it at the source I went here to buy some variety. The place was super pack with 2 beertenders. I grab a pint first to enjoy with my food. I was luckily enough to find a seat indoor, there was plenty outside but it was a bit cold. It was nice to see some kids enjoy themselves. I didn't realize this place has 3 pool tables and about 3 to 4 arcades. This is pretty awesome, I don't see many pool tables at a brewey these days. Pretty kid friendly. After enjoying the pint of beer and my food, it was time to order some beers to go. I got a variety from lager to IPA. It was pretty busy and the guy just let me stand there to decide while he helped the people behind me. It was a bit confusing on which beers you can buy to go. It wasn't all of them. Anyhow it was nice to try this place out and when I'm in the area again it would be nice to swing by.

Service was NOT friendly whatsoever (older white lady with dirty blonde hair must have had a bad day, yikes!) but at least the beer was delicious! There's a few arcade games inside, basketball, pool tables, etc so it's a fun hangout spot, but don't expect to feel welcomed.

The location of this brewery is a bit random, but such a cool spot with great vibes! Very spacious with a large indoor area as well as a small outdoor patio. A few TVs and plenty of games. Dog friendly and plenty of parking! They have a pretty large selection of beers, and I love how they have quite a few with Asian-inspired flavors! Sadly they weren't serving food the most recent time we went, not sure if it was just an off day but we were really craving some bar snacks to go with our beers. Check in on Yelp for $2 off one full pour! Overall, great vibes and the perfect place to grab some beers and chill with friends.

We went here for a birthday party. Harland Brewing is tucked away in a business park in Scripps Ranch. But once there, you are treated to a nice and spacious facility that can hold large parties. They have lots of special brews on tap and pool tables for you to play and hang out with friends. Since it's a brew house, be prepared to speak loudly to be heard. Too bad that they don't have much food to order from. A good place to hang out and drink though. Their brews are solid and the staff is friendly/helpful.

If you like beer, this is like being kid in a candy store. Harland is my favorite brewery. My stock of beer is not complete without their core beers: hazy ipa, Japanese lager and India pale whale. But the flavors you can have here, you will not have anywhere else. I would not recommend one over the other. If you have time and a designated driver, try all and decide for yourself. Jarrod at the counter was so nice and had excellent recommendations. Will be visiting shortly. Very nice cozy brewery vibe.

Since San Diego is known for breweries, I wanted to take my boyfriend to one of them while he was here. I remembered a coworker recommending this place and since it was along the way home, we decided to stop here. The location that we went to is the one located in an industrial/business area where no other eateries are closely located on Carroll Canyon Rd in Scripps Ranch. There's a relatively large parking lot shared with other businesses (I believe) for customers going to the brewery. The brewery is a covered, open space where they have drinks and games, such as billiards and board games, for customers. Very cool atmosphere! I saw that there was a Yelp check-in offer of $2 off one full pour of beer and decided to use it as I wasn't a big drinker anyways (although, I do love beer flights). I got the Japanese Lager. It was veeerry good. Light without much hoppiness. But it's a beer I wouldn't know the difference between other lagers. My boyfriend got their beer flight: Tropical Daydream (sour), Camp beer (light), Waimea Haze (hoppy), Harland Rumbler (core). Out of all of them, I really liked the tropical daydream because of the hint of passionfruit in it. I heard the beers rotate so when my boyfriend visits again, we'll definitely be back to check out the other options as this location is near my home!

Big space with indoor and outdoor seating, and a good sized menu of beers of various varieties including a number of sours (some of which were very bright colors). Trivia night is well run, and there was a pizza truck outside to get food from. Parking here is ehhh

This is by far my go to brewery for the beers. I was in NZ recently and the only brewery that came to my mind was Harland. I think they have better beers than the breweries in New Zealand. But why am I giving a 1 star rating. I have seen a consistent pattern of bad service (rude bartender or unwelcoming bartender). I went in about a year ago and got a splashes of four beers. I bought four packs of three out of the four. After paying for those, I asked the bartender if I could get a small splash of their stout (I think that was on draft only and I wanted to try it since I could not take it home). The bartender goes: "dude I already gave you 4 splashes and you have gone over the limit". It did leave a sour taste in my mouth, but I continued going to the brewery. I was served by other bartenders and did not feel unwelcome. I went to Harland today with a family member who was visiting us. I also took my kids with me. My older one plays pool and was looking forward to playing it. I asked for the cue sticks. The same bartender was at the counter and he said: All players need to be atleast 14. I returned to the table and made the kids play the arcade games. My older one was watching others play and then saw a sign at the pool table that said: "kids under 12 cannot play pool without adult supervision". This was a sign that was commissioned by Harland. I went to another bartender and asked him if my older kid can play if he played with me. The bartender said, yes he can if you are playing with him. We just ask that you be careful. I asked him why the other bartender said every player has to be 14. And to that he said he perhaps misunderstood the rule. This constant pattern of being discriminated against keeps building a bad taste. At some point I have to stand up for myself. I don't know if others have felt this too. I am happy to talk to management if they want to reach out to me and get more details about these incidents. I hate to see a brewery lose customers due to grumpy and discriminating bartenders.

I'm a stout girl and honestly I was not a fan of their kuro Japanese lager or chocolate haupia pie stout. I think my friends enjoyed their sours and lager though. It's a cute spot with lots of space both indoor and parking, a pool table, chill vibes, and 4 bathrooms!! Some families and coworkers and friends hanging out, some remote workers on their laptop.

Great beers and staff. They have also an extensive selection of merch. from shirts, hoodie, candles and beanies. I had there featured Hazy IPA and a few other beers there(Magic Window) a collaboration with Bruegon brewery and also there Waimea Haze. All the beers were outstanding but the one that stood out was the Hazy IPA very fresh and citrusy. Came here with a friend. Also enjoyed one of the food trucks that shows up regularly. We had one of the pizzas that offered. Definitely will come back when in the neighborhood. Parking is plentiful.

As a huge beer lover, I have gone to a lot of San Diego's breweries. In recent years, Harland has become one of my favorites! It's always a good after-work spot for my coworkers and I. The space is pretty big, they have a food vendor on site, plenty of seating, a handful of games, a TV or two, a little patio, really friendly staff, and ultimately delicious beer that almost never disappoints! I especially love that they have Filipino, island, tropical inspired beers on rotation. Personal favorites over the years are anything with Ube, smoothie styles, milkshake IPAs, and I usually like their unique releases they've had like li hing and melona. I know one thing they're locally famous for is their annual Ube Day when they throw a whole event around their special Ube beer! I hope to attend this some day!

Their flights were delicious! You can choose up to 4 different ones to try, They had a pool table and few arcade games. We brought our family there and we also enjoyed their pizza, cooked upon order. I even bought a cute shirt. Highly recommend this brewery.

So, we were here about a week ago. Little did we know this location is up and over from my sister's place, we would be here everyday We arrived not long after opening, this location is clean and calm... basically, not too loud (at the moment) which is what we like. Merch was displayed neatly as we walked in. Place looks great! Plenty of tables, big tvs, video games and pool tables (yup, we played a couple of rounds ) Oh, there was a food truck on site, but we did not partake as we were there for liquid sustenance We let our wonderful bartender take his pick in setting us up with a beer flight since everything on tap looked so good and we couldn't decide. Well, I had a stout, which is not what I usually order, I was not disappointed Thanks for getting me into the dark side So, wish they had their Ube beers, but I saw that they are holding off for their 5 Year Anniversary Party... wish we can be there. We enjoyed our visit and will be back

Great beers and spot to hang out at. Lots of tables. There's also a pool table and arcade games. Also dog friendly! The brewery is located within a business park with plenty of parking. Service has always been fast and nice. You can bring in outside food. We went to the Thursday night Farmers Market down the street and brought it here to enjoy :)

We had a large, private gathering last night and couldn't have had a better time. The space was perfect for our needs, the beer was excellent, but the best part by far was the staff. They were welcoming, fun, helpful, knowledgeable, and took great care of us the entire night. I would highly recommend stopping in for a drink or hosting an event here.

Great service! Rotating beers (which is great, but sucks when you find a beer your really enjoy). Dog and kid friendly. I wish they had more food options! PROS: * rotating beers * plenty of parking * great service * lots of seating (indoor and outdoor) * dog friendly * kid friendly * pool table CONS: * a little pricy * no food (sometimes food stations available outside -- tacos or pizza). Food also a little pricey for what it is

Really cool spot to meet up & chill with friends! Not too much going on but enough to kick back and have some great brews, taco & pizza. That pizza is next level! Staff was super helpful with talking be through the beers and tasting, making sure we get the right pour for everyone in the group Def a great spot

It's #BEER O'CLOCK! What I got: "Tropical Daydream"- Fruited Wheat Ale w/ guava, mango, peach & apricot 5/5 "BIG CHICK ENERGY"- Women's Day Brew: Oatmeal Stout w/ Coconut & Dulce de Leche 2/5 "Mango Sour IPA"- Mango, Lactose, White Chocolate. Dry hopped w/ HBC 586 & Azacca 4/5 "Aloha Whip Seltzer"- Hard Seltzer w/ Pineapple & Marshmallow 5/5 Ambiance is definitely brewery casual. It was a bonus to have pool tables and TVs to watch a good baseball/football/basketball game! However the TVs could be much bigger especially with the amount of wall space they had. Staff- as first timers it was a bummer to not be greeted properly. Workers looked irritated and not knowledgeable about their menu. Would've been nice to get some recommendations etc. I wasn't aware that their special beer menu like ube and pandan was a limited only time. But the way the worker mentioned was very rude. Overall good beer but honestly the 40 minute drive here was not enough to get me to come back.

Arrived on a Sunday. It was not busy and there are plenty of tables for seating. Food truck outside selling tacos which were delicious! Tried both hazy IPAs on the menu...so good. They have pool tables to play with a change machine in the corner so you can get quarters. Two large TVs on the wall to watch Sunday football. Outdoor seating available.

Had to see the hype of the ube ipa and was not disappointed. Very helpful brewtender, suggested some drinks based off of what we like. I got a flight with the ube ipa, aloha seltzer, cool down sour and melona sour. I was surprised how good the ube ipa was considering it was an ipa and im not really a fan of those. Very rich in ube and coconut flavors, not really hoppy which is perfect to me. I also loved how much the melona tasted like the popsicle and smelled like it too. Space is huge and they even have pool tables!

Beer is really good Staff is really nice The issue here? Dogs. Lots and lots of dogs. Barking. Bickering. Whining. 10 of them. Constant. No stop. Staff did nothing to stop this. It was so loud and obnoxious that it ruined the visit. I couldn't maintain a conversation for more than 20 second without an outburst from the pack of dogs starting up again. Owners didn't care. Staff didn't care. We stayed for about 45 minutes before heading to Embolden. I get it. People want to bring their dogs EVERYWHERE these days. I mean I don't really get it, but I understand that's what's trendy right now. If a business allows countless dogs to be inside where people are eating a drinking and trying to converse with friends and family, then the business needs to set boundaries and hold the owners accountable. Doing absolutely nothing is not a viable plan.

Had a fun time here for trivia on Wednesday! I really enjoyed our glasses of the Lilikoi Sour and the Japanese Lager! Staff was really friendly too!

Awesome place with an awesome staff ! Go here and enjoy ! Fun times ! Get some merch !

I've only been here on weekdays. Laid back and casual ambiance. Good beer. A lot of open space. Service is standard. As far as food, there's some really good pizza available outside, though I don't believe it's provided by the establishment. I like that there's plenty of seating both indoors and out.

Harland brewing is a fantastic spot to grab beers in Scripps Ranch. Located in an office park, it's well worth the brief drive past an array of stop signs and speed bumps. Massive space with high ceilings and plentiful seating. Very chill atmosphere and ambiance. The bartenders were attentive. Fellow patrons seemed to be having a good time. We really enjoyed the famous ube milkshake IPA and melona-based green drink. On the sweet side but oh so smooth, decadent, and refreshing.

Nice place to hangout & grab a drink. We got a flight & enjoyed their drinks. We really liked some of their sours! Paid about $35 for a flight & then an additional 2 10oz pours, not bad at all!

Great local brewery that churns out some great, unique flavors. Located in a neighborhood of Scripps ranch, they have plenty of parking and seating both indoors and outdoors. Dogs are allowed as well. They have the standard IPAs but also some stouts and sours. I really like their hazy IPA which has a fuller taste than some other tastes without being too bitter. I like the passion fruit sour as well. My partner loves their recent seasonal release which is a melona sour. He said it tastes exactly like the melona ice cream bar. Super sweet so that needs to be your jam. Service is super friendly and they let you try some pours before commiting to a glass. Highly recommend!

August 2022 - Party of 3, no wait. Just order and sit! There's outdoor and indoor seating available. Food/Pricing - Hot Honey Pizza - $15 and 3 Flights ($15 each flight). Food was good and the Melona Sour was my fave out of the 4 in the Flight! Service/Ambiance - Friendly and prompt service! Parking - Parking lot was busy but not difficult to find a spot. Just be aware of signs that are posted, some specifically say that they aren't Harland Brewing parking spots.

Quite a find in the middle of an industrial park in Scripps Ranch. They have a fairly diverse menu if you're into IPA plus they have some sours and other eclectic beers. Nelson Nelson is as funky as you could expect. Lunar Maps is a solid unfiltered west coast IPA. Looks like a hazy, tastes nice and crisp. India Pale Whale is a text book west coast ipa. My wife favors malty and they don't have a simple amber or brown ale. She likes the Japanese lager and thought the Vino Noir was interesting but not what she would expect when looking for a beer. They have good food vendors and plenty of merch. Things got a bit complicated when the county moved in and a lot of the parking now says "county only".

Love the beer and location decent, but the staff is rude, and esp. disrespectful to older folks. Cut the attitude.

I recently visited Harland Brewing to visit some old friends. I went on a late Friday afternoon and the place was packed! The few tables that were there were already full but fortunately, my friends arrived early. I ended up ordering their slushi drink! Berry Slushi -As someone who loves their sweet alcoholic beverages, this was perfect for me! Loved how there was a hint of the island fruit flavor but wished they added more alcohol. This is a great drink to have especially on a warm San Diego summer night! Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Harland Brewing. The drink was decent. The service was friendly. The ambience was great with multiple pool tables and a DJ blasting music. If you got time, you should check it out!

I've always seen beer by Harland but never got around to trying it. Then when I did I was hooked because the Japanese lager was so tasty and right on. I think Harland may be the best brewery in SD yes I said it Harland may be the best brewery in SD!!!! I've been to this location a few times and it always a hit for me. The space is huge for a brewery they have tons of outdoor seating, a few pool tables, and a couple of games. This is my go-to spot for excellent beer when I'm in the area. Can't wait to see what they'll have next time I come in!!!

IVery dog friendly & family friendly place to meet with friends and hang out. We came to celebrate a birthday. There were a few groups around us with dogs and babies. They have a delicious selection of pizza (including gluten free crust), made in a tent out front. I heard when they don't have pizza, you can get tacos. Beverage options are beer and 2 seltzer options (for gluten free peeps - it's made in the same vats as the other drinks). Bonus - if you check in on Yelp you get a discount on your first pour.

Another brewery I tried...and this has a winner for me!! Harland Brewing got me with their Li Hing Mui Sour Ale!! That stuff is yummyyyy!! I'm not sure if they make it all the time or if it's a limited time kinda thing, but I gotta grab a 4 pack whenever I see them! This place is located in the Scripps Ranch area with plenty of parking. It's big and clean, lots of seating. Very open and airy and they have merch for sale which you'll walk right into at the entrance. Clean, gender neutral restrooms and a few games to play if you're just chillin with your buddies. The night that I came for their 2nd birthday celebration, the bathrooms were a hot mess. Smh people!! Prices are average for a brewery and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They don't serve food here, but occasionally they'll have a food truck or two. That's pretty much the only time you can get a meal. I haven't tried any of their other beers but I might in the near future. I'd recommend this place if you're a beer connoisseur. It's sure to tickle your fancy! =P

Nice little (big) place up in SR. First time there. Actually thought I was in the wrong area as it is located in what seems to be an industrial park. Parking was good. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of taps and selections of beer. Food menu seems to be either tostadas (little thin crust pizzas) or some tacos. Only tostadas available on my Tuesday after work visit. Merch available as are corn hole boards. While in SR, highly recommend a stop at Harland.

Amazing beers, great indoor and outdoor space with plenty of room and nice seating. Clean, tidy area with pool tables and arcade games. Servers are super friendly and attentive. Dog friendly, and the staff brought out water and treats. Very nice vibes, saw families having fun here. There's a pizza vendor outside making pizzas in a big oven in the parking lot, which pairs perfectly with the good brews. 10/10 would keep coming

One of my favorite breweries in SD. I first tried their Japanese lager from a grocery store and it quickly became one of my favorites. I had to check out their brewery to see what other beers they had on tap. They're constantly releasing new beers at their tap rooms. Some quickly run out because they are sooooo good and popular. It never gets boring here because there is always something new to try. Highly recommend any of their locations.

This place has great beer. Ive been coming here for some time and I have also been to the One Paseo location, both fun places with good vibes...most of the time. Dog friendly and 3 pool tables here. Lots of room for parties I feel the need to give 3 stars because twice I've had not so great experiences with one of the bartenders at Scripps location. Emily I believe is her name-blonde bartender, is not the most personable friendly employees there. She is always either in a horrible mood or has a nasty attitude towards customers and even towards some of the staff I've witnessed. I brought my father here to introduce him to Harland beer and again, bad attitude to simple questions. Every other bartender has been absolutely friendly and inviting but I try to avoid service from her when I see that she's working. Amazing place with great beer and great potential. I think management needs to pay attention to certain employees and their work ethic

San Diego is known for their craft brew scene, and Harland Brewing is definitely a contributing factor. With a draft sheet full of R&D brews, and a few reliable staples, you're sure to find something that fits your brew style. Hidden in the back of an industrial complex (like so many good breweries are), they've made it their own with many large seating areas both inside and out. There's swag to purchase, pool tables and pin-ball machines to keep the vibe light, and regular local food tents setup outside to offer some much appreciated bites. The brews cover the range of San Diego classics, from west coast IPA's to the newest HAZY brews, Lagers, and even a few sours to sweeten the deal. I'd definitely recommend after a long day, a chill weekend afternoon , or for any occasion.

Located in a business park like most breweries, Harland makes some terrific beers and I was lucky enough to stop by for some tasters this past Sunday around 1pm -ish. When we arrived, they had a taco person setting up by the entrance. What you first will notice is the little gift shop area. It's super neat, and I do dig their H logo but I really don't need anymore beer wear for the time being. We got a set of tasters, they come 4 to a pack. It does say that if you choose your own flight, it would be $15 but our bill came out to $17 and change for some reason. That's okay, we still love you and tipped you as we should. We had their Lilikoi Sour, Desert Cafe, Rye IPA, ABP Sour. Really solid stuff especially on hot days. Did wish though if they had stouts on tap but the desert cafe coffee ale was the closest. Did not see the Ube beer from their IG page in stock. Oh well, guess I will have to make another trip next time. Seating here is terrific. You have high and low tables, indoor and outdoor areas with the open air feel. The tables weren't as clean as we have liked but the gentleman over the counter cleaned it with ease. The view here, not so much as you will just gaze into the parking lot. They have a sign here saying that if you are unmasked, then you have been vaccinated (which of course I am) in order to go in. But then again, I was probably the only one wearing a mask anyways.

Harland Brewing is my favorite brewery in SD! I love all four locations. The Scripps Ranch location is the closest to my house about 12 minutes away from Carmel Mountain Ranch. It's pretty easy to get to with pretty good parking. Multiple pool tables and games with an outdoor patio. Check it out if you're in the area.

Went on a Saturday early afternoon and it wasn't too busy! There are a good amount of tables and seats and we were able to find a place to sit right away. We tried the Halo Halo and were very impressed! Good balance and mix of flavors, no one flavor overpowered the other. Only available in a 5oz pour, but I liked it so much I got two lol. My husband always gets the Japanese Lager, as well, which he recommends. We like how you can check online for their draft list, which is frequently updated.
