Great place to head out and enjoy a good choice of beer and pizza and other foods. We tried a bit of everything and enjoyed all that we ordered. All our food came out really quickly and the wings were cooked perfectly. Next time I’m in the area i will be cruising back in. The beer list was great as well.

Me and my boyfriend came to have lunch here and the food was delicious. The hot wings were our favorite!! We also ordered their jalapeño poppers they were 10/10. We also both ordered Buffalo chicken sandwiches the patties were so juicy and tender. The fries were also freshly made. This is our new lunch/dinner spot!!

The staff are extremely cordial and accommodating, and the food was freshly made and tasty! Oh, the chardonnay was cold and with hints of citrus... And the cheesy bread for our granddaughter did not last long...she ate the cheesy bread quickly.

They do not serve food. But, we had ordered pizza from somewhere else. We were then able to eat it there along with the drinks we had already ordered. Good selection of drinks.

Loved the pizzas here my wife and I decided to stroll this town today. I got the GodFather and her the Tanya's Bbq Chicken both really good. Would definitely be back to eat more.

One of my favorite places to eat in North County. I love the relaxing atmosphere of the area. I really appreciate the rotating local beers that they have available from all over the county. Favorite item there is the personal size, bbq chicken pizza. I've ordered it multiple times and it is always so deliciously made. Even reheated in the oven the next day the pizza is still very delicious. We have also had their cheese bread, spicy bbq wings, meatball bombs, chicken parmesan, and their pulled pork sandwich.
