Brass Bear Brewing is a family-owned, locally-rooted spot proud to call Santa Barbara home. We have two locations designed to fit whatever kind of gathering you’re dreaming up—our lively Funk Zone location in the heart downtown and our Uptown location, featuring a spacious patio and incredible mountain views. Both locations offer designated kids’ zones, making Brass Bear a welcoming place for guests of all ages.
We focus on locally sourced ingredients, thoughtfully crafted beers brewed in-house by Brass Bear, and food meant to bring people together—whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth.
From intimate date nights to weddings, milestone celebrations, and everything in between, our team is incredibly skilled at private events, large reservations, and off-property catering. Whether you’re planning a full buyout, hosting a special occasion, or simply looking for a place that feels both welcoming and elevated, Brass Bear is here to make it easy, memorable, and uniquely yours
