    Probably the most awesome brewery that I’ve ever been to. Not only is the venue incredible, but the unusual and beautiful artwork is amazing. The owner has had local artists paint murals all over the property. This is also Houston’s oldest craft brewery and they’ve recently won gold medals for two of their beers. The outdoor area is kid and pet friendly. The inside looks like church, so it’s great for a Sunday. They also sponsor art cars, some of which are outside to view. It’s an annual parade. The food is delicious too! The mushroom pizza is the best I’ve ever had and I’m a mushroom connoisseur! Come here and have fun!

    This place is awesome and unique. Great place to gather with friends or family. Their hideaway Beer is like a michelada all in one, and is the most perfect beer I’ve ever had. Really gives you good vibes :) For food, we tried the truffle fries, the steak frites and the crawfish roll. Everything was delicious delicious and delicious!!!

    St. Arnold's has a large n spacious Beer Garden serving Ice Cold Brews and food but, due to extreme Houston Heat it also has an Air Conditioned Beer parlor where one can enjoy Cold Brews out of the Heat. There's a long bar, plenty of tables and 6 different and very decorative sections that have a large table setup for semi private parties or meetings. The servers are always Courteous, Friendly and always making sure if you needed anything else. This section was Closed during the pandemic but, now that it's open you have to see it for yourselves and have a Great time with family or friends!😃🍻🍺🤘

    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. Update: got to go inside the main building and it is amazing. Too bad its not open to the public. Great folks and great beer, highly recommended.

    Absolutely love the new beer garden. It truly takes Saint Arnold to the next level. We’ve taken everyone that has visited us in Houston to the beer garden because they have unrivaled skyline views, great beer and awesome food. Win, win, win. Sunset is the best.

    I had the most incredible time of my life here solely because of my waiter Luke. He’s incredible! I love Luke so much he was super attentive and had great suggestions even tho I’m not a beer drinker, but pls give him a raise I will be back just for him!

    One of my favorite places at Houston. If I get guests from other countries or places I always show them the Biergarten. They have good beer and awesome food. I really like the view of the skyline.

    We arrived just after they opened on a Sunday. We didn't realize there would be table service (waitstaff not yet evident) so we bought from the bar. We were transferred though, so no worries. We also didn't realize they had parking immediately adjacent; we parked at the old brewery lot down the street. We got a crawfish poboy (so so) and a burger (top notch). The server was attentive but not overbearing. They also have an inside area complete with air conditioning for the feeble. 😁 It was a good time and will be back.

    Justin was our server and we had a really great experience! He recommended the strawberry kiwi cider the Carolina fries and the peach pecan bread pudding and everything was amazing! This place has a great atmosphere with lots of seating. Family friendly and interesting art all around. We will be back for sure

    My favorite brewery and also my first ever brewery to visit. I’ve had almost everything. The wings are good, the sandwiches are good, the fish and chips is good. They used to have a carrot cake that I hope comes back that was amazing.

    I love coming here both for the food and atmosphere. It can be a pain to find parking and seating when it's busy, but if you just wait a bit something usually opens up. The food and drinks are fantastic and I have never been disappointed with anything! I'd recommend the honey agave cider, grilled chicken sandwich, and truffle fries! This is also a great place to eat while watching the Astros games on the big screen!

    Parking is tuff. Very loud. Good and service is good. Beautiful views of downtown Houston.

    Great service, good food, delicious beers on tap. The pizza and wings were awesome and the beers they offered were pretty tasty and refreshing.

  • 5/5 Tyler B. 9 months ago on Google
    Their staple beers are always great. The seasonal beers are some of my favorites like summer pils and octoberfest. They have some great specialties and some overly ambitious ones but that's all part of the process! Even if you are not a huge beer fan, their beer garden and restaurant is one of the nicest spots in Houston to sit and enjoy a lovely view of downtown. Inside the restaurant are multiple large murals painted by local artists. Outside the patio is huge, comfortable and very kid and pet friendly.

    Great atmosphere for young couples and families. The way this place is designed you get a cool breeze even on the hottest days in Houston. The service here is always quick with both drinks and food you get served almost immediately. We love the regular staff and beer!

    I'm very sorry to have to post this review, but the purpose of it is to provide feedback to the owners and to make potential customers (and past customers) aware. First, I've been a big Saint Arnold's beer fan for much longer than the beer garden has existed. I've personally paid thousands to host big events in the beer hall upstairs, I've defended Saint Arnold's as Houston's oldest craft brewery, and I've been a dedicated buyer of SA beers, especially Art Car and its variants, plus the Bishop's Barrel releases over the years, as well as the now defunct ICON series of beers that stretched their creativity legs without breaking the bank for customers. I visited this beer garden, which when built was far and away the best in the Houston area, as soon as it opened. They had an extensive menu of food, some might even argue gourmet quality in some respects. The menu wasn't just "bar food," it had delicious entrees like Beer Can Chicken (my favorite). The beer? Well, the outside garden had the usual SA beers, plus a few special beer garden only brews. Usually not the super strong stuff. But inside? They had the barrels and always had available a barrel aged release, either new or old, and usually multiple at once. They also offered multiple different Bishop's Barrel beers in bottles that they had kept back for sale. Even during COVID lockdown, we did the drive-through at SA beer garden for beer and food!! We supported them through tough times, even without benefit of even using the beer garden itself. Well, we went again this week and what a disappointment. Most of the comfortable and neat looking outdoor seating is replaced with very pedestrian wooden picnic tables. The outside taps have nothing special other than "fruited" versions of Art Car. (yuck to fruited IPA guys, both lazy and gross). The menu for food? GREATLY reduced. No Beer Can Chicken, in fact, no entrees at all that aren't basically burgers, sandwiches, or pizzas. BAR FOOD. A tremendous step down. Beers inside? Absolutely no barrel-aged beers available. NOTHING. Not on tap or in bottle. No Bishop's Barrel -- in fact, do they even do them anymore?! I'm sick and tired of COVID being the excuse for reduced service, quality, variety, and just plain laziness. I'm sorry SA, but until I learn that you've made improvements, I won't be back. I'll visit my usual Flying Saucer locations in Downtown and Sugar Land, where they have more than 80 beers on tap, barrel-aged beers, and a menu that, while limited, is still better than yours. What a travesty. I look forward to feedback from Saint Arnold management. I'm a dedicated guy, but you guys have trampled on your dedicated customers. Cancelled Endeavor DIPA, cancelled the entire ICON series, cancelled (or put on hold?) the entire Bishop's Barrel series, is there even Divine Reserve anymore?, reduced menu quality and variety at beer garden, consider fruited IPAs to be worthy of even putting on a brewery tap?, oh, and let's not forget, closing down at 10PM. A beer garden. Seriously? I look forward to hearing back from management. Please change my mind with tangible improvements. The beer pictured is a "slow pour" of the very common (and not in any way interesting) Summer Pils, which ironically, even your own description describes as not being a Pilsner (so not sure why we're pouring it like one). It was fine. Tasted just like it does from the can.... Just nothing interesting to see here.

    Very good place to get together with friends to drink. They had really good food and I've been a fan of few of their beers. I love the lawnmower and their blonde is decent. I gave it 4 stars due to my preference. They have alot of IPA's and I've never been a fan of them. I love sours, blondes, Bocks and many others. So for me options at a beer garden are important. When I went there were about 12 options but most were IPA's. I like diversity to be able to drink more then just a few so to me that loses a star. But overall it's an amazing place to at least visit for the art inside and the relaxing environment with amazing food.
