Los Gatos, California · Since 1991
Great food,
great beer,
back on tap.
The brewpub that made North Santa Cruz Avenue smell like fresh malt is coming back. Same copper kettles, same double-cut pork chop, same bar you remember.
Our Story
A watering hole with a long memory
The Los Gatos Brewing Company was established in 1991 to quench the growing thirst for native Los Gatos brews. As news of our diner's pub spread, beer drinkers from far and wide came to sample our lagers and feast from our gourmet menu. Serving only the freshest and finest in California cuisine, The Los Gatos Brewing Company soon became the fashionable watering hole and premier eatery it is today.
