Flight Line Tap Room - Bar in Ridgecrest - 259 N Balsam St, USA

Interesting rotating tap selection, and good location. The indoor area is pretty nice, they have various board games. Definitely enjoyed the atmosphere. Currently they have seating indoors and outdoors, during the summer the outdoor seating is best in the evening, they usuallyhave a food truck outside on the weekends whichis a plus.

Enjoyable space for drinking with friends and playing some board games. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.

Gotta love this place. As a guy who is allergic to hops I always look for something to drink while my friends sip on beer. This place has a great selection of non beer drinks in cans and always a seltzer or cider on tap. Great place for chilling out and playing board games. They have a great selection. Always looking forward to going.

So, not trying to be a harsh critic on this one and provide this review so that the management can improve the offering. 1. When it is 100 degrees outside close the front door and crank the AC. No one wants to sit in a hot room and drink warm beer! 2. When the inside temperature is 85 degrees the refrigerators can't keep up with the cooling requirements and the cans/taps warm up. You gotta fix this! 3. If you are going to claim the parking spaces out front for food trucks don't ask your customers, just as they have their first sip of beer, to get up and move their car. Really easy to put up a pylon on the sidewalk at each space you want to reserve with a sign that says "No parking from 4:30-9:00PM" Easy Peasy. 4. Confiscate the wait staff's personal cell phones when they report for shift. The two girls behind the bar this afternoon were literally sitting down and looking at their phones while I was standing at the bar trying to get their attention for an order. And why are they sitting down exactly ??? You have an opportunity to be a really vibrant and awesome part of our community, all you have to do is provide cold beer and great service. I'll stop back by in a month or two and see if you have made any progress. Good luck. Reply to your response: Ok, Coolers breakdown and that can happen to anyone. Food truck scheduling has no relevance to using pylons with signs which is a much more customer friendly way to operate the business. I was being a little facitous with the "confiscate the phones" comment to highlight that you have a training/performance issue with the staff. While the women were using their phones to "communicate" for business purposes our tasting flights and the table outside the door on the patio were empty for 10-15 minutes and neither of the women thought to come by and offer us a new beverage. Both the guys at the table outside and I had to go to the bar, extricate a woman from her phone and order a new round. After getting a new beer my flight paddle and empty glasses stayed on the table until after I finished my new beverage. When one of the women came by to collect the flight paddle it was stuck to the table. She never came back to wipe the table down and left the sticky residue for me to ponder. You are, in fact, disrespecting your employees, and customers by not training to, and expecting, an acceptable level of service. Instead of taking a defensive tone try some introspection and remember, no matter what, the customer is always right and you can always do better.

Certainly the most interesting beer selection in town! Try the flight for a great bang for your buck. Nice atmosphere, family friendly and they have games to play. Food trucks stop by regularly for some great grub options.

Great beers (plus beers slushy's) and fun atmosphere. It was also trivia night which was a blast. The food truck outside was also incredible. Wonderful experience!!

Beer drinkers, not beer drinkers, adults and kids can all find something to drink and something to do here. There's no food menu, so we just door dash our eats after a few beers. There's games and beer slushies and seating indoors or out. The staff are knowledgeable and super helpful. It's a fun place to hang out and try something new 🍻

An excellent "new" place in town. I absolutely will be back. The rotating beer selection is well curated and varied to ensure people of all tastes will find a winner. The atmosphere is very laid back. It's not quite a bar, it's not quite a coffee shop, it's somewhere in between. The staff is friendly, chatty and helpful. The prices are great for the products they serve. It reminds me of taprooms in Los Angeles or Anaheim... For 30-50% less per beer. An absolute must visit and we must keep them in business so we can all enjoy a quiet drink here once covid calms down. Love love love.
