They've been making chalet beer since before craft brews were a twinkle in your eye, and the sweeping view of Ocean Beach, makes you want to cozy up with a creamy entree and one, or five, drinks. Read more

So if @kevinrose likes this then, oh boy so do I @samdownie . Get the Fish & Chips, very tasty. To go with it try the V.F.W light beer. And do get a table by the window.

Way better than I expected. Good bar & grill American menu. Simple classics. Cozy and comfortable even during a Giants playoff game. I suspect that the weekend day drinking scene is a little wilder.

When available, the specialty German style beers, like Roggenbier, are excellent. On a sunny day, hang out on the back lawn and enjoy a cold craft beer and a view of the windmill.

Views of the ocean are very nice but be warned about sitting next to the window, sun will roast you. Good sandwiches though at a $ premium for the views. Brewery on site.

Beautiful views from the windows. Their fish n chips is very good! Also they serve brunch on Sundays and it's amazing! Make reservations to guarantee a table!

Beer week: cioppino with red beer based salse and dungeness crab pairing with the same red beer! AWESOME!

Check out the marker for the Gjoa, which was the first ship to sail the Northwest Passage and once lay aground in Golden Gate Park. http://bit.ly/npRWcn On the north side of the Chalet parking lot.

What a view! Nothing better than a window seat on a bright, beautiful sunny day. Loved the open faced crab melt.
BrookeOctober 27, 2015
The host gave me her favorite corner table right next to the window. It definitely has wow factor views as long as it's not foggy!

I only ever come here after Bay to Breakers. Love their outside area and their bar is great!

This brewpub features a 3-6-9 happy hour. It goes Monday-Friday 3-6pm and 9-close, and includes a menu of drinks and appetizers that are $3, $6, or $9. Read more

Every single door in this place slams shut with a terrific bang. Close them gently or you'll have a migraine by meal's end.

Thank you for having a power outlet under my seat in the bar table area. I really appreciated it!

Giant letdown in food presentation, freshness, quantity and flavor. Alright beer. Great views.

The Park Chalet is in the back facing the park, the Beach Chalet us upstairs facing the ocean. Just FYI

Nice place to have an early dinner specially while the sun is setting. The local brew is not too bad either
Mark DregerFebruary 25, 2018
Food is mediocre but the view is killer. Other than the Cliff House, this is the only restaurant facing Ocean Beach.
Blake SimmonAugust 17, 2011
Definitely get the Beach Basil Ginger. By far the best drink of our entire 2-week stay here in San Francisco.
Claudia A.November 3, 2011
back patio. tons of babies on beach blankets on a nice day watching a live band that plays kids jamz. beer. they get it.
Nelson ElhageJanuary 9, 2016
Great view out over the water, and pretty decent beer. Food wasn't bad, but was generally disappointing.

If you bring kids eat at the Park Chalet and let them run around in the park.

$22 for 2 very and I mean very small pieces of Steak & fries. Well the view of the Ocean was nice.
Ben RussoMarch 2, 2015
Decent beers! Get reservations if you want a table by the window for sunset.
Shasta RocksJuly 21, 2018
Prices listed here are incorrect, management won't honnor their old prices and admit they haven't updated in 3 years. Food is mediocre. At least good view, but you have to sit by the window.
Kian LaviApril 1, 2016
The view is awesome, and the cioppino was fantastic
Kai TiuraOctober 31, 2011
Do not pass up the mussels in white wine, cilantro and garlic sauce with Spanish chorizo and grilled sourdough wedge. Incredible!
Michelle D.January 22, 2017
Get a window table and watch the waves. For brunch, try the corned beef hash!
Alexander WinterFebruary 10, 2013
Awesome view, don't let them seat you in the sun in the afternoon, it will boil you!
Chuck DayJune 20, 2013
Order the flight of beers! Amazing oceanfront location!
Gabriel GilderFebruary 14, 2015
The spicy grain veggie burger is unique and tasty!
Chloe CondonJanuary 22, 2016
Sit by the window at sunset for some amazing views!
Randy SimesSeptember 19, 2010
Skip the wait and go right to the bar. Give the Presidio IPA a taste if you haven't already. If you time your visit with sunset it makes the experience even better.
A.J. FiorellaAugust 29, 2011
Go on Tuesdays - for Taco Tuesdays and ask to sit out back on the lawn (weather permitting)
Jack WhalenMay 12, 2012
There is no salt or pepper on the tables (a growing trend depending on the level of pretentiousness) so ask if you need it.
Emmanuel HaleFebruary 17, 2013
The clam chowder was really tasty, and the crab cakes were great, if a little small.
Rahmat B.October 27, 2010
This is my first time in San Francisco. And after a lond walk through Golden Gate Park this is a nice place to end up and watch the sun set!
Joseph FrazierAugust 23, 2016
Loved the food, the wait staff and the View!
Robert KalafateMay 1, 2011
After you visit here, check out the 'sister' Chalet at the Lake- Merritt in Oakland. Spishally happie hour and the Gondola!!
Elif ÖngelAugust 29, 2017
It has a nice view of pacific ocean

Sandra CifoFebruary 6, 2019
Ciopinno and house salad are delicious!!!
Kara WhittingtonOctober 25, 2009

Get yourself a freshly brewed beer and sit by the window around sunset for one of the best views in town

The Ales Sampler Set is a must!
