About the Space

Private event venue in San Francisco, CA | Otherwise Brewing Otherwise Brewing in San Francisco is more than a private event venue—it’s one of the few breweries in the country built entirely around a 100% gluten-free philosophy. Located in North Beach, the modern taproom combines a relaxed, community-driven atmosphere with an inclusive experience where guests can enjoy craft beer without worrying about gluten-containing ingredients. What truly defines Otherwise Brewing is its commitment to crafting gluten-free beer from the ground up. The rotating tap list features a variety of styles, from lagers and IPAs to stouts and sours, alongside wine, hard cider, hard seltzer, and non-alcoholic options. Guests can also enjoy gluten-free bar bites, with approved catering options available for hosts looking to expand the food menu. Offerings: Otherwise Brewing offers flexible options for semi-private gatherings and full taproom buyouts. Its open, social layout is ideal for cocktail-style celebrations, networking mixers, and casual group events, while its North Beach location makes it a convenient event space for groups gathering in San Francisco. Why You Should Book: What sets Otherwise Brewing apart is its dedication to an entirely gluten-free experience. For guests with celiac disease, gluten sensitivities, or anyone seeking gluten-free options, it creates a rare craft brewery experience where inclusivity is central to the concept rather than an afterthought. Types of Events: Perfect for corporate events, team outings, birthday celebrations, holiday parties, networking mixers, happy hours, and inclusive social gatherings.

Happy Hour

I visited this establishment the other day. I was very satisfied. Very tasty signature beer that they brew themselves. And they also cook very tasty food here. We ordered several dishes: fried dumplings, sea salad, shawarma. Very tasty dishes with interesting and original decoration. For lovers of sweets, there is also something to choose from here. I recommend it. There is a friendly atmosphere here for spending time with friends or loved ones.

Networking Event

Nice spot that's good for a casual meet up. Many beers in tap. The sours need work... They are flavor bombs but a bit too strong, unbalanced. The IPAs were "ok" compared to the norm on the east coast these days.
