Rain Brews is like a quirky Grandma’s house. Couches, tables, and chairs are all used and were bought at garage sales and thrift stores. Everything doesn’t match but it’s comfortable. They have simple food and all kinds of drinks, hot or cold. A tap house, a coffee shop, a place to hang out with friends old and new. Stop by Rain Brews, affectionately known as Monte Vista’s Living Room. Conveniently located in the Fassett Building in downtown Monte Vista.
