Cold Coast Brewing: A Lompoc Gem Where Craft Beer and Community Collide

Cold Coast Brewery isn't just a place to grab a pint, it's an experience. From the moment you walk into the converted warehouse, the vibe is electric. Exposed beams and industrial lighting set the stage for a cool, urban atmosphere, but the real warmth comes from the staff.

They truly embody the spirit of "Cheers," where everyone knows your name. The friendly bartenders take the time to chat, recommend brews based on your preferences, and create a genuine sense of community. It's no surprise this brewery is veteran-run and owned – their commitment to service and camaraderie shines through. Great beers and great staff!

The beer is okay. I like their Double IPA and
Tropical IPA. However, the atmosphere at Cold Coast Brewery is very poor. It feels like a big, cold, empty warehouse. There is no charm. Yes, I have been there on different days of the week. The 3 medium/small TVs often don't work or aren't showing live sports. The bathrooms are dirty and broken. Such a lackluster environment! As much as I want to, I can't recommend this place. The owners should have found a smaller facility and more revenue streams. With only $7 beers as their only/main revenue stream, it's not going to pay the bills. I hope the owners come up with a new business model, as a Brewery is much needed in Lompoc, and I know the owners are great guys! But the current Cold Coast Brewery business model is not working and is not sustainable.

Great local brewery. Fun brews and friendly staff! Events almost every day of the week. Tuesday Trivia and Food Truck a Friday is a bomb with friends. Wednesday’s and Sundays are a bit more chill with karaoke on Wednesday.

Excellent handcrafted beer! Several favorites from a group of locals serving up brew in a big open space with games. Lots of families here on opening day since this is no dive bar. We have been waiting for a long time for this place to open and it was worth the wait!

Of course the beer is good AND the selection rotates to keep it interesting but it's the people that make it awesome! Many of the staff are ex-military and have interesting stories about life in other parts of the world. Veteran friendly! Lots of local Lompoc friends to be seen here as well.

A huge, welcoming space in the community!
The owners are super kind and generous, and are shrewd businessmen. They organize local cleanups, and they provide a fun, safe place for families to gather after everything else in Lompoc has already closed for the night. There are family-friendly events here every week or more. It's a really incredible vibe in here and I'm so grateful that they are becoming such a hub for this li'l beach town.

We only just discovered this gem a couple of weeks ago, but have found ourselves stopping by often just to say hello to this great group of good people!
If you're not a beer drinker (I'm not), you still might find one you like here! You can bring in your own food from anywhere (we've seen people have pizzas delivered to their tables), and they have a wall of board games for groups to hang out and have a good time. If you're trying to meet people in your neighborhood, go here on a Tuesday for trivia night - it's PACKED and everyone is smiling! They just had an open mic on Saturday, anyone could get up and sing (with or without music) and it was a very supportive and encouraging environment. It's a great place to go if you don't feel like being stuck at home, or wanna socialize, and maybe even expand your beer palate!

A very large and open setting, mostly full of families having truck purchased food. Basically loud and cold with no real atmosphere for a brewery. The beer selection was limited.

Been here 3 times now and the guys are GREAT! It's like a real life Cheers, they recognized my family and knew what we drink. The beers are AMAZING!!!!!! Definitely a great place to sit and have a beer, met up with friends or have fun night out with your family. And the fact that it's LOCALLY OWNED makes all the difference!
