Mammoth Brewing Company - MAMMOTH LAKES

Pretty mid. My gf has an onion allergy and the burger didn’t list onions as an ingredient. When we preemptively asked to remove onions from the burgers (if they even had any, we didn’t know at the time), someone came out to the table saying it would take another 20 minutes to remove the onions, but they were able to take them off the burger and serve them immediately. They offered to exchange the bottom bun(the one that was touching onion) which was a nice gesture. There was a lot of attitude coming from this server, quipping that all allergens were listed on the menu (this was untrue). The burger was alright, nothing special but definitely not worth 20 bucks. The following day, my stomach is upset and I have been having stomach issues all day. This was our first “real” meal in 2 days after eating food we packed for this trip, so this adds to the disappointment of how bad the burgers were. The fries were cold by the time they were served. The side salad had onions dumped on top with no option to remove them. The lettuce was wilted and sad. Got the beer flight and nothing really stood out as excellent. 2 ipas, one of which tasted like a Christmas offering. The brown ale was the standout of the bunch if you like that kind of thing. The lighter beer were very light and almost tasteless. The pale ale was solid. Honestly the best drink on the menu is the root beer, this review would be a 1 star without the root beer. This brings me to my last gripe. You order through a QR code at the table, not a server. This makes substituting any item or customizing anything difficult if not impossible because you’re limited to the options listed as check boxes. But the check boxes don’t cover enough options. Which leaves you to flag down the nonexistent waiters. This has the double disadvantage of there being absolutely no waitstaff walking around. There’s only servers going to other tables, not yours unless your food is ready. Usually there are waiters roaming around you can flag down, but here, unless someone makes an explicit trip to you’re table, you have no help or assistance from the staff. You can order food from the bar, which had I known earlier I would have. Talking to a human is always preferred over using as app in my opinion. Overall 2 stars feel generous because the burger was the very definition of unimpressive, the waitstaff was nice when they were around, but they rarely were.

This spot just continues to get better and better. Love the new outdoor seating. The updated Pilsner is actually a pilsner and super good. The Kolsch is a close second. The Root Beer as always is fantastic. Waffle fries are bomb. And their Vegan burger now has vegan cheese!! Super good and is now a staple in our rotation.

There is a selection of different craft beers and also tasting boards. The food was consistently delicious. We can highly recommend pizza bread, burgers or other delicacies. Ordering is done online (a bit complicated and not necessary, but it works) Nice ambience!

If you want to taste Mammoth beer and feel like a customer, go to the Lead Dog taproom in Reno. If you want to feel like a number, do everything yourself except cook the food and pay a premium for it, go to the Mammoth taproom in Mammoth Lakes. Update same night ordered a drink from upstairs bar and paid with card. Chose the no tip option as I was about to put cash in tip jar when the bar tender turned around and gave me a hard time about not tipping on card. Saw him do this to several customers, even pushing them to do it in front of him. Not professional at all. Very aggressive posture. Then, when leaving the guy bringing the beer in on a trolley wasn 't able to steer it so he got aggressive too because we were in the way, even though we had really made sure to get out of his way. Just don 't bother, wish I could give zero stars. Truly awful behaviour.

I went to get swag and stayed for the beer. Great selection and friendly staff.
