Good beer and good food, nice covered outside seating in the back for the warmer months. Â I especially like the Lompoc Special Draft (LSD) and the C-Note IPA. Â
For the food menu my girlfriend really likes the Cobb Salad and Veggie Sandwich, while I enjoy their burgers and the chicken strips (it's on the appetizer menu, but it's a full plate). Â The BBQ sauce is homemade but they don't always use the same recipe. Â So sometimes it's great, while other times is mediocre. Â I always order the BBQ sauce, then if it's one of the weird recipes I switch to a different sauce. Â Combine their burgers or chicken strips with their tots, and you can't go wrong. Â
I think the food menu is priced appropriately and they have some good weekly specials (Cheap beers on Mondays, and cheap mimosa's and bloody mary's on Sundays). Â The service here is pretty good and their staff usually have some good recommendations on the beers and specials. Â
Overall a great neighborhood pub.
Nice selection of Lompoc brews, thoughtful menu with a mix of old favorites and some creative dishes, comfortable atmosphere. Â Waited at the bar for our table, and was chatted up by the bar staff. They got us a table out back in about 15 minutes at 7 on a Friday night, so nicely done there.
I had the KickAxe Pale (bitter, floral) and the Brie burger (genius! And cooked perfectly).
I've been before and will return again to meet up with those famous Totchos.
