Had a late afternoon lunch at PCH today, our first visit. They have a full bar and an extensive menu of tasty delights. They ±have a pet friendly patio out front, with al fresco service available. Inside was decoated with surfboads, plants, art and Padre memorabilia. Great music plays with levels allowing for conversation. Some folks were at the bar watching sports on the big screens, while a pool table was also being enjoyed adding to the buzz. In another room which is open after 5 PM, there is another bar decorated as a pirate ship, featuring grog specials, oceanic murals, sails, lines and a Kraken crouching in the corner! We sat at a table and were served by Griffen who told us about the specials and got us our drinks. Their wine and beer selection is very good with spirits and specialty cocktails available. The Bleu Burger was juicy and delicious and their signature Cubano sandwich was well prepared, perfectly seasoned and flavorful! These were accompanied with fries and onion rings that were very good. We recommend the Pinapple Upside Down dessert which is drizzled with sauce hot out of the oven, wonderful! We will be back to enjoy their hospitality again soon and...
Read moreI came in solo on a Sunday afternoon. It was pretty quiet at the time but ppl were strolling in as it became later. Very casual. You can sit at the bar or at tables. They have a 75c pool table. A few flat screens with games on. Beer, wine, mimosa, burgers, sandwiches, salads, chicken wings, appetizers...
Jimmy, the owner I think, is very nice and friendly and engaged me in conversation and introduced me to everyone working at the time. Everyone was very nice. Suggested some activities for me to explore the area more and meet more ppl. Eileen was tending bar with him at the time, sweet girl. Funny. I think there was a Matt working the grill? I can't recall the names now. Anyway, everyone was nice. Very local feel to it, like a neighborhood bar.
I had a mimosa and the acai beer, which was a nice light beer on tap, and the lemon pepper chicken wings - tasty. Will try a burger next time. Or a chicken sandwich.
Parking can get a little tricky. Not many spots. I came in from Coast Hwy but that's the exit. you gotta come in from the side street or just park on the street. Poor visibility when leaving...
Read moreI've been frequenting this establishment for a while now. I love craft beer and this place amazingly always has one of the best selections in a town that is known for some of the best craft beer in the world. They get special releases of beers that other places just don't even get a chance of having. They must have a secret pipeline to the craft beer gods, because they definitely get the good stuff!
Oh, and the food is really good as well. Fish tacos. Outstanding. Same with burgers. And the kids menu is really good too, everything on it. My kids always finish everything when we eat here, with no fuss. Now they beg me to take them here for food.
My favorite are Mike's Hot Snaps. They are basically like crack for me. They are deep fried slices of jalepenos served with bacon ranch to dip in! Oh and the ranch at this place is the best.
Definitely a locals place. The staff here are friendly, knowledgeable, and just generally make you feel at home.
There is one pool table, a digital juke box, and bunch of flat screens for sports. There is also a small outdoor patio...
