A taproom that runs like a venue
Mr. Chile Taproom is a Latino-owned craft beer taproom and live event venue at 4357 Montgomery Dr, Suite B, in Santa Rosa, California. It pours a rotating list of Sonoma County beer, cider and wine, serves bar food built around baked wings and mac and cheese, and books cumbia nights, sonidero, live bands and community fundraisers.
Out back, a patio runs along Santa Rosa Creek under mature oaks — string lights, heat lamps, picnic tables, yard games and a taco truck in the corner. Inside, flags of a dozen countries hang over the tap wall and the game goes up on the projector. Parking is free and on site.
Most nights it is a neighborhood taproom. On the first Saturday of the month it is a dance floor until 2am.
Cumbia Rosa
Once a month the taproom turns into a dance floor. A beginner cumbia class at 8:15pm — no partner, no experience — then DJ Edge until 2am.
