    Hip place to hang out but in my opinion there could be more beer options on the menu. The inside seating is pretty neat and air conditioned! The beer garden is nice but the heat/sun is brutal if you can’t sit under the main metal cover. It is definitely worth a visit if you are passing by.

    A must visit while in Houston! This place is huge and has some cool history behind it. The decor didn’t disappoint! Food and beer were amazing and it’s kid friendly! We will be back.

    I've been to St. Arnold's a few times and it never dissapoints. They offer their emblematic Houston beers plus their seasonal ones. Food is great and suitable for sharing. Half of the outdoor seating is under a big roof so no need to worry about the sun. Indoor seating is now reservation only. Expect it to be busy Fri-Sun. Brewery tours are available. They have parking on site and additional parking is available a block away. Staff has always been polite and helpful with recommendations.

    An amazing brewery! We were visiting Houston and this was the first brewery we hit. The atmosphere and the beers were great but the bartender (Ryan) made the experience so much better. We got flights and he shared different variations of the beers and a lot of good local info. Also did the tour (with Nathan who was amazing) which was another awesome experience in itself. Will definitely tell people that this is a Houston must.

    I ordered a vegan pizza which was absolutely fantastic. It even had fresh basil on top. My friend had a regular pizza with arugula on it. This place is super nice with tons of parking in lots on both sides of the street. I'm not a beer drinker but I tried a honey agave cider that was good and a pinot noir which was nice. My friend tried a couple of beers that she said were good. I would go again as they have something for everyone. Outside seating is open table and there are large screen TVs to view sports. I gave it a 4 because service could have been a little better, but not a deal breaker.

    Great brewery, the beers don't disappoint. The service staff was great. Great atmosphere, and the food was great. I am a beer drinker, so this was a great experience for me. It's definitely worth trying out, I recommend it.

    I had an amazing time at this brewery! They offer a fantastic variety of beers, making it a great spot for beer enthusiasts. The ambiance is top-notch, with an antique design and a special car collection featuring icons like Jimi Hendrix and bands like Earth, Fire, and Water. Plus, the view of the Houston skyline is breathtaking. It's also a family-friendly place with plenty of games for kids, making it an excellent spot for everyone to hang out and enjoy.

    Great brewery to hang out at with massive outdoor space. Have always been happy with any food ordered here. Usually go with the spicy chicken sandwich that is actually hot, but balanced with some blue cheese. Really enjoy it here, great food, drinks, and atmosphere.

    I am happy and grateful for the coupon Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center gifted us to St Arnold’s for donating blood. The manager, Mike, allows those of us who do not drink to substitute a pint for chips and queso, and it was the best dip. They gave me a pitcher of delicious and refreshing water. There are indoor and outdoor tables and seats. It looks like a Catholic Church inside with colorful murals. I had a good time learning about St. Arnold and the miracles of his time. Mike was enthusiastic and was the perfect host and made me feel welcome. He needs a raise! I had the best service and they got a tip. Also, the best seat in the house in my humble opinion is to the right of the big screen; it was private and beautiful, and you can view downtown and the big screen from the same table. Go ‘Stros! They have plenty of space for children to play, and they allow pets and it was surprisingly quiet. They also have a nostalgic car display in the portico. Although they sell commemorative items. the brewery is finished with their Oktoberfest celebration, but the last day of the 188th @Oktoberfest in Germany is tomorrow. Remember you save three people’s lives when you donate blood, and Ein prosit!

    We went for an afternoon/evening hang out. We sat on the patio. They have a massive patio screen they played the astros game on. There was a fun water fountain in the middle of the patio that our toddler loved playing in. They have both shaded and sunny seating and an indoor restaurant area. We ordered a flight and watermelon cider. All was great! Especially the seasonal selections. Food: we ordered cheese pizza, cheese burger, truffle fries, queso, popsicles, fire emoji chicken, & steak fries. All of the food was very good! Sometimes we go to breweries and the food is ok…regular bar food but this was really good. Everything had great flavor and was very filling. The atmosphere was very casual. We will definitely be coming back! Definitely kid friendly, saw several kids ranging from infant to pre-teen while we were there. There is a large parking area inside the gates. You can also schedule brewery tours!

    The original brewery that we finally visited and it didn’t disappoint! It is all that plus more. Open outdoor seating covered and uncovered, kids play area, outside private area, outside walk up bar for ordering, cool inside seating, cool aesthetic (see pics), friendly staff, TVs for sports viewing, souvenirs, great food, nice prices for food and drinks, and free daily tours of the brewery! Need I say more!

    Amazing brewery, a must if you come to Houston, I ordered the pulled pork sandwiches and I really liked it, a little hot and tender. If you want to try a very good flavored beer, go with the summer pills, just one of the best, very balanced in my opinion. The service was great! People there love to help you out with the choices of beer

    The brewery/beer garden with more space indoors and outdoors than any other in Houston paired with some pretty good eats. The atmosphere is chill and you can enjoy great beer the weather, the game, and good company all at once. They continue to improve the experience and raise the bar.

    Nice hangout spot close to downtown. Got a pizza and the steak and fries. Pretty good. Great selection of beers and none of them gave me stomach acid. Great place to come with friends and hang out and drink. Kids also have a small play area outside with a small maze. Worth the visit. Check them out. I will be back.

    They have great food. I'm not a fan of beer, so I had their cider (Honey Agave Cider) and it's so good. Love that cider so much. Plus you can do the tour. I think they do it every day at 1pm, 3pm, 5pm and 7pm. You should go there on the weekday so you can see them in action.

    We went here in the late afternoon due to overcrowding at our first place. Although the directions on your Waze or Google Maps might try to lose you, don't give up it's worth the trip. We dined outside and we had a great view of the city, a big screen for football, great beer and food choices. It was a great pace to unwind and there was only one little kid running around but lots of dogs and that was awesome. The little farmer/flea market was nice to visit on way home. Give it a try.

    Great brewery with good selection of beer with awesome property and outdoor area for hanging out with plenty of people. Good prices, plenty of food options and things for kids to do. Fun cars to check out as well.

  • 5/5 Kim H. 5 months ago on Google
    The energy in this place was so much fun. We love the vibe, very laid back. The food was awesome, my daughter ordered the Margarita pizza, I had the wagyu burger, and my husband had the grilled chicken sandwich, all of which were excellent. The service was great. Our waiter was very attentive. I would definitely suggest this place, to eat at or just hang out with friends, watch TV, and have a drink. It will not disappoint. Also it is pet friendly so you don’t have to leave your fur babies at home.

    Awesome building and atmosphere, people were nice, friendly and helpful. Good beers on tap and in bottles. Water feature was sweet. Train was loud but it adds to the experience for me.

  • 5/5 Mark R. 11 months ago on Google
    This has to be my favourite beer garden in Houston…. Great relaxed vibe, full range of St Arnold’s beer and a really good food menu all makes for a great evening. And very family friendly too - just keep little ones clear of the fountain or you will have a wet drive home 🫣

    This place has an enormous territory, but the beer variety is mediocre. They also don’t sell growlers. The place is also really expensive. It is very popularized, so high prices are expected. People working here are okay.

  • 4/5 Ferrum C. 11 months ago on Google
    It's not the craft brewery it used to be. Definitely gotten a bit commercial. But this place still has a nice hangout vibe outside. And inside it feels a little more upscale than other brewery eateries. The food reviews were mixed in my group. Some said the pizza was the best they'd ever had, while others complained of overcooked burgers. But overall, the staff was very friendly and the food was tasty. It's a shame they don't have a better beer selection. Being so large, there are very few choices and most seem very middle of the road and mainstream.

  • 5/5 Liam A. 1 year ago on Google
    I don't think I had ever seen such a beautiful brewery before! It's just an absolutely gorgeous establishment! The inside is just mesmerizing, and the outside is calming and beautifully designed The food quality was fantastic, and the drinks are phenomenal! Fresh out of the brewing facility beers with great variety to choose from. If you are in Houston, come check this place out.

    I recently visited Saint Arnold Brewing Company while I was in town in Houston, Texas. I had heard great things about the brewery, so I was excited to check it out. I started my meal with the Classic Fried Chicken Sandwich, with no pickles. The sandwich was absolutely delicious! The chicken was perfectly cooked and juicy, and the breading was crispy and flavorful. I paired my sandwich with the Elissa IPA, which was the menu's suggested beer pairing. The IPA was very drinkable and had a good balance of hops and malt. The hops were present, but they weren't too overpowering. The malt gave the beer a nice sweetness that complemented the fried chicken perfectly. I was also really impressed with the brewery's layout and architecture. The brewery is housed in an old warehouse, which has been converted into a spacious and modern space. The walls are lined with murals of beer-related artwork, and there is a large bar in the center of the brewery. There is also a nice outdoor seating area, which is perfect for a warm day. Overall, I had a great experience at Saint Arnold Brewing Company. The food was excellent, the beer was great, and the atmosphere was very inviting. I would definitely recommend this brewery to anyone visiting Houston.

    The beers were good, but nothing too special. The food was all delightful. I was pleased to see some healthier options on the menu that still were satisfying. Though the pizzas being carried out all around me looked outstanding and I wish I would've tried one. It's a short ride to get a little break from the busy downtown area. Cute outdoor seating.

    Very gracious hosts. I've been fortunate enough to participate in a lot of events here for as long as they been at this location and the one before this one. The team has always been incredible. The event space is excellent. Love the paintings on the wall. The VIP area is comfortable and has a private bar available.

    Incredible food, impeccable service and atmosphere to die for 💕 Our waitress Lauren was friendly and very helpful. The best root beer in Houston is St. Arnold's on tap. So good ✨ For foods we had the Major Mushroom pizza and the Fish & Chips. Delightful truffle scent abound with both dishes. You can tell everything is made in house. Want good bread? Eat at a good brewery 🔥🍞 The aesthetic of the place and the decor is so great! The painted murals on the wall, gothic architecture and stained glass windows really set the mood. The surrounding outdoor area is full of character- between the art cars, giant fountain and spacious patio, every seat is the best seat in the house. I'm so happy there's a place like this in my hometown. Bonus points: *Also their tables have purse/bag hooks for convenience*

    Had the Greek pizza and my family had the wagu burgers. Everything was delicious. I had the honey and agave cider and I wasn't a fan of the after taste but I thoroughly enjoyed the hot cider! So delicious. Love the artwork inside! Really nice location with great atmosphere

  • 5/5 Ryan O. 1 year ago on Google
    Second time here but was finally able to sit down and try the IPA beers that I love. This is my favorite IPA beer to purchase and drink when at home or just about so I was happy to finally experience the beer on tap and enjoy the environment Saint Arnold's has to offer. I unfortunately ate before I got here so next time I will try and surely enjoy the food.

  • 4/5 Evelyn B. 1 year ago on Google
    We didn't have any food, but the beer was great, Saint Arnold's is definitely a more hoppy brand, if you like more blondes, you should try Karbach. the Bartender was very nice and happy to explain the selection and give us plenty of samples. We visited in June 2022, and they have the fun art car exhibit outside. plenty of seating inside and out, but you'll have to sit at a table if you'd like to order food.

  • 5/5 Dena B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great venue, love the outdoor space, appreciate their continued support of community events. Beers are cold and delicious, root beer is frosty and their food selection was good. This place is perfect to meet with friends and enjoy an afternoon together!
