This was a good stop as we travelled through the area. Avocado burger was excellent and fries were crispy and tasty. Very good meal!

From the moment we walked into The Brass Tap in Hollister, we knew we were in for a treat. The warm and gracious greeting from Mr. Nader Javid, the owner, set the tone for what would be a truly exceptional dining experience. His hospitality immediately made us feel at home and added a personal touch that is rare to find. The decor of the restaurant is stunning—modern yet cozy, with a welcoming ambiance that invites you to relax and enjoy. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed, creating the perfect atmosphere for both casual outings and special occasions. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, ensuring that our needs were met without ever feeling rushed. As for the food, it was absolutely outstanding. The soft pretzels were perfectly baked, served warm, and paired with delicious dipping sauces. The wings were a highlight—crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. And the pizzas? Simply divine, with fresh ingredients and a crust that strikes the perfect balance between crispy and chewy. The Brass Tap is truly a gem in Hollister. Whether you're stopping by for a quick bite, enjoying a night out, or celebrating with friends, this restaurant delivers on all fronts. Kudos to Mr. Javid and his team for creating such a fantastic dining destination!

Everything was great! Big portions, excellent service. We went for lunch on a Saturday, and it wasn’t too busy. So many different people came to make sure we were doing ok. Would definitely go back to try something new!

1. The pizza was delicious with crispy edges and a generous topping of pepperoni and fresh basil. 2. Fish and Chips: crispy fish fillets that look perfectly fried with crinkle-cut fries paired with coleslaw, ketchup and a creamy dipping sauce. 3. Chicken burger is beautifully presented with a shiny, toasted bun and fresh toppings, including lettuce, tomato, and pickles. The melted cheese and juicy patty make it incredibly appetizing. Tip: Order the poblano sauce for added spicy flavor.

Fantastic all around! Great service - she was so kind! Extensive drink menu. And the food was great! We got the Mac N Cheese bites and they were delicious! The sauce was spicy and a good match for the bites 🔥 They were out of the regular dough for pizza, so we tried the cauliflower crust and it was excellent!

I was traveling and stopped in Hollister for the night, placed an order by phone and picked it up in person. The hotel recommended this location. The pricing was reasonable and my order was ready as promised. Steak sandwich was solid and you can't go wrong with tater tots. Had I sat down for dinner there, I would've asked for more onion and some greens. The portion was generous, tasty and cooked medium rare like I requested. Ordered the lemon pepper chicken wings and garlic fries for my wife and she was quite content. Staff was friendly and moved quickly to call me by name even though I hadn't given indicators I was the phone order. I'll be back when visiting the area.

The Brass Tap Cheesesteak is amazing and HUGE, a good deal At $15 comes with crunchy crinkle cut fries ketchup and a ranch. I also had the Golden State Mighty Dry Cider $10. Delicious all around, pleasant server and atmosphere. I wish a fork had been served with the meal, since the huge sandwich came with a steak knife as welll…Other than that great place for lunch/dinner and detailed beer:draft menu. Lots of options. My other faves ate ALL the pizzas. Tip these servers well even if u just drink!!:):) Edit: Upon review of my receipt, the price charged for my meal was $17.50, i will glow up as I believe the “Fall 2025” bar menu said $15!!

Just came for the craft beer and they have an amazing selection. It's in a strip mall that appears under construction but once you get inside it's fine. Low key and laid back. Bartender was great. I'll be back and try their food menu.

I had the Korean BBQ pork nachos and it was flavorful and filling. Beer selections were great. Staff knowledge on beer is great and drink menus help simplify making beer choices. Our waitress Amber took great care of us and made great drink recommendations!
