The Loose Cannon — Restaurant in Ventura

We were so excited to have a new dining option in Ventura. Food was decent. Not stellar but not bad. However, there are significant issues related to seating, especially for folks who have a disability which overshadowed our visit.

Inside seating consists of only high top or picnic style tables, the latter of which have bars at the ends that would prohibit one from rolling up a wheelchair. These bars also make it so one must physically hike their leg up and over the bench as you cannot slide in from the side. So unless you’re able to sit at a high top or manage the picnic table, you’re relegated to an outside table. To the establishment’s defense, they did spruce up the outside with a couple of fire pits. However, these were both occupied and it was cold outside so we had to sit inside. (Visited at night in December.) Also, with no table top surface at the fire pits it would be challenging to eat a meal there anyway.

Sadly, we had already ordered before I realized the seating issue (you order at the counter near the front door) and I had to call my mom and tell her not to come as there simply was nowhere for her to sit. (I did notice a low lying metal surface added at the end of the bar where I suppose one could roll up a wheelchair, but there were stacks of papers or something on it so it was unclear as to whether or not this was the designated spot for people with disabilities. Additionally, this “table” was very small - she would not have been able to dine with the family.)

The lack of disability-friendly seating is such a huge oversight and I’m shocked and saddened at the lack of regard for people with disabilities. I hope they fix this issue so that all members of this community can enjoy this establishment. Until then, we will...

Stayed at the harbor for my bday weeeknd. And got to explore the area this weekend. This place is great. I'm a big beer fan and am always looking for new breweries. This place did not disappoint at all. The bartenders were very friendly and knowledgeable. We did some sampling and they really do have something for everyone. Had some ciders, meads, and other miscellaneous beers. Each one was great in its own way.

If you like sweet stuff, try the Cactus Cooler mead, it's too tasty but it sneaks up on you, lol.

If your into beer history, they have a brew made from a 1000 year old recipe from Germany. It's different but a really cool experience. Earthy, tasty, not too heavy.

Very family friendly atmosphere, they have lots of video games, bowling and VR games. Didn't try any food as we just ate but we will absolutely come back here...

I have been to the harbor many times. This is a newer place so I decided to give it a try. I was celebrating an anniversary and I contacted the restaurant to make a reservation. I explained the reason for the celebration and I asked if I could get a nice table. We got the best table in the house with a view of the harbor, service was excellent and the company decided to help us celebrate providing the champagne and dessert.

My girl was moved to tears as she was very happy with the food, service and view.

I want to thank everyone involved in making this a very special and unique celebration.

You guys went above and...
