Craft Coast Beer & Tacos - San Marcos, California

Allison Jackson

This place is freaking delicious!!! I wanted guests to actually enjoy our wedding food and drinks & So many guests told us this was the best wedding food ever or the best tacos they’ve ever had. The beer was also crisp and tasty and guests kept going back for more. Highly recommend trying the food and craft beer at one of their locations! They made the planning process super easy and were very flexible with last minute changes. Any questions I had were also quickly & throughly responded to. Pricing was very fair & they provide everything you need for the night. They also make the tacos fresh right in front of you & somehow still manage to get through all the guests in a timely manner with no long waits. Definitely recommend booking them for your next event!

RUN do not walk to this special place. Flavor and perfection drip off of every morsel on your place . This is a great spot to bring your friend that always has the same drama but with different people . You can listen and just say ,” uh huh. I don’t believe it. That’s crazy .” Every third bite and they won’t notice . Amazing food to distract you from your crazy friends.

Fantastic new build out. I can't wait to see what else they do with this awesome location. Craft Coast really took a location that was great before and made it extra great. They have a wide variety of beers to choose from. There is lots of indoor and outdoor seating. It's a perfect place to hang out on a spring and summer day and just relax with a great beer in hand.

The food is excellent too. They really captured the small brewery and a food truck vibe. You can walk up to the food truck outside and put in your order. If their beer is good, the food is a step above that. Something for everyone when it come to their food selection.

The parking lot is fairly large, but the lot is narrow, and you might have to walk from the other side of the parking lot if it's a busy weekend day. There is no street parking nearby, but there is parking around the back of the building. Wheelchair accessible parking right up front.

Awesome revamp of the old Rip Current location. Very happy to see these guys open a second location in San Marcos.

Has a nice twist in the typical “warehouse” brewery - much more character and they did a really nice job with the covered patio and large bay doors for the summer breeze.

The tacos and beer here are awesome!

The tacos and beer were delicious but the prices sting the wallet a bit; then again almost every place is expensive these days. I was kinda hoping they'd keep one or two of Rip Current's recipes on the beer menu but sadly they were nowhere to be found. Other than that they did a great job redecorating the place and I'm happy to have them in the neighborhood. If they start doing a happy hour I'll be a regular for sure!

Really good beer and AMAZING tacos. My husband gets the meaty tacos, and I get the veggie tacos " craft coast style" (crispy cheese and pinto beans). SO GOOD.

At this point, I don’t know what I would do without the combo of beer and birria-style tacos anymore! Mulitas are still my fav but birria-style is amazing!

I love the new location! Did a great job with the outdoor patio! 🍻

Wow! How can you go wrong with craft beer and delicious tacos!? Trick question, you CAN'T. The beer is outstanding and the tacos & mulitas are tasty. I recommend going for the Birria mulitas, but anything with the "cripy cheese" is fantastic. Warning: Don't plan on going if you absolutely must have a burrito, nachos or a 'dilla, they don't have those. But they do have "Ganja Smugglin'".... hey now, it's an IPA 😋 If you want tasty tacos and craft beer don't wait, GO!!
