Lost Marbles BreweryB-Worth Trying

823 Clement St, San Francisco, CA 94118 · Brewpub · 4.6/5 Google (378 reviews)

Delivery · Takeout

Energetic Inner Richmond brewpub with strong drinks, big screens, and a broad comfort-food menu; great for groups and games, but expect mandatory fees and occasionally uneven service and food consistency.

Why it gets a B- for overall quality

Lost Marbles Brewery delivers reliable comfort-food dining anchored by strong design appeal and a capable cocktail program. However, inconsistent food execution—with cold items and oily dishes appearing alongside praised fried chicken sandwiches—prevents a higher grade, while service strain during peak game times limits overall polish. It's a solid neighborhood spot for casual drinks and sports viewing, but lacks the consistency and distinction of grade B+ establishments.

Restaurant Summary

The room feels warm and bustling, anchored by a giant screen and nautical touches that give the space character. Bartenders are often friendly and quick off-peak, and the vibe swings from chill afternoons to game-night roar. A guest summed it up: "Perfect for a couple rounds, some bites, and the match on the big screen." However, expect a mandatory surcharge on the bill and occasional service strain during major events. The cooking leans comfort food with flair rather than high-concept. Regulars call out the fried chicken sandwich, panuchos, and fish tacos, while pizzas and quesadillas draw mixed notes on portion and consistency. Drinks shine—cocktails feel considered, beer selection wide if not always house-brewed, and there is an expanded NA list. This is a spot for easygoing grazing and drinks, not a culinary pilgrimage. Families do fine here thanks to kid-pleasing staples like burgers, tenders, pizzas, fries, and desserts, plus board games and roomy seating. Weekends can be rambunctious during games, and one staffer advised avoiding peak times with little ones. There is no kids menu called out, but the menu has plenty of familiar options for younger palates.
