Reviews for Caboose Commons in Fairfax, VA
Cool happy hour spot. The menu is different than the usual and the drinks were good. I absolutely loveddddd the nachos. We had... no complaints about service and the food nor drinks took long. Overall, a chill place to hang out after work. Read more
One of my favorite breweries in the area. They have outdoor and indoor seating on 2 floors. Ceilings are high and they have all... types of beers, teas and coffees to choose from. You can order via the app by scanning the barcode at your table. Service andcleanliness is always top notch here. Place gets really packed Friday and Saturday evenings. Parking is great w the garageacross the street Read more
Caboose Commons is a massive space in the Mosaic District that's open throughout the day. During the morning and day, it's a... cafe and a three-level work space with free wifi. They serve breakfast, coffee and beer. After meeting a friend for a Wednesdaymorning breakfast, here's my experience: 1) Food: I ordered the scrambled eggs with mushrooms on bread and it was so bland.They gave me hot sauce, but it still tasted like nothing. I'd skip it. 2) Coffee: They have a full coffee menu and my vanillalatte was fine. 3) Space: It's massive! There's a large parking lot, three levels of seating inside and a dog-friendly outdoorpatio. If you need a place to work, it's a good spot, but expect mediocre food and okay coffee. Read more
I enjoyed the beers here. We stopped by around noon for some apps and a drink. They do offer flights and this was a good way to... enjoy several styles. There are things that I like about the QRS ordering system. It is straight forward and avoidsmiscommunication. You pay as you go and don’t have to wait for the check. This is all great if you are an introvert anddon’t enjoy human contact. The downside is the lack of friendly service interactions. The industrial feel and the contactlessservice makes for an impersonal experience. I have been to the Caboose brewery in Vienna and I love it. I felt like the Commonswas a step down in service and personality. However, it may play well to a younger crowd that does everything on their smartphones, but I miss the bar. Read more
This is probably one of the most creative and comfortable brewpubs that I have ever been to. I love the modern industrial look,... as well as the creative murals on the upper floor. I only tried a handful of their beers, but they were all very good. I walkedby this place many times, but never stopped by, because it was always crowded, but I guess I caught them on their slower hoursthis time, so I gave them a try and loved it. Cheers! Read more
A solid choice for grabbing happy hour drinks, stopping by for coffee (and getting work done at one of their large tables), or... even hosting parties and events. Can get crowded during peak hours, especially dinnertime and weekends (or when anothernetworking events is held here), leading to loud indoor volumes due to the building's large, echo-conduciveinterior. Highlights: --Varied and thoughtful selection of beers, ciders, and ales, including local brands. Some cocktails andwines sold here too, but beers are definitely the main attraction. --Decent and well-brewed coffee and espresso drinks --Qualityfood selection, especially the breakfast items and lunch/dinner bowls --Plenty of tables across three floors and a very wideoutdoor seating area --Intuitive and simple online ordering system. Helpful if you're tired of trying to calculate each memberof your party's Venmo charges after a meal Some new customers might not be accustommed to the online-only ordering system andfair-wage upcharge policy--both of which are honestly good ideas that other restaurants and bars should follow--but almosteveryone will find familiarity in the all-American food and beer selection, with a nice variety of coffee/espresso drinks, teas,cocktails, and wines to boot.

Pet friendly is a big plus...Nice quite afternoon joint and happening evenings. I love the vibes of the place, so young and... vibrant. Food is not my palate but who cares, I enjoy their brew..whether it's beer or coffee.. Read more
What a great gathering space! Indoor/outdoor seating, GF options on the menu. Delicious breakfast! Coffee was solid - not too... fancy. I understand they have good beer and drinks available, too. Service was friendly and quick. Not too expensive. Read more
