Ventura’s favorite restaurant, event space, and brewery. Modern Mediterranean, Pizza on Nights & Weekends, and a Fresh Weekday Lunch

The table has pizza, colorful salads, and drinks, with sunlight streaming in.

With the goal of creating a warm, welcoming community space with a little something for everyone, Bright Spark opened its doors in November of 2022.

A familiar Ventura spot with a fresh, friendly vibe, Bright Spark is built to be the easy "yes" for a big group. While we brew a wide range of beer on-site, we’re just as focused on our food, event space, and curated selection of wine, seltzer -based cocktails, hard cider, and kombucha, along with plenty of non-alcoholic options.

There’s a little something for the traditionalist and the adventurous alike—with bright, bold flavors, Bar-Style Pizza on Nights and Weekends, and fresh, hearty Lunch options on Weekdays.
