Atmosphere – Interesting place. Separates the bar from the restaurant pretty well. It’s a microbrewery and you can see the vats as you walk in. TVs cover the corners and a giant chalk
board in the middle shows all the beers they have on tap.
Beer – Good size assortment of beer. I recommend their home brews as they are quite tasty, but they offer several on tap that are not their own. San Diego Amber is quite delicious.
Wings – Their wings vary. This has been my frequent establishment as it is very close to my home. Wednesdays are their wing night. If you go towards the beginning of the night (about
7) you’ll get the nice tasty wings. If you go towards the end, there’s a higher chance you’ll get dried out, broken, toasted wings. Of death. And doom.
My last few encounters were absolutely splendid. Although for “wing” night there were no “wings” only drumsticks. Go figure. They offer Hot, BBQ, Teriyaki and *gasp* suicide. They also offer Russian roulette where they give 18 hot wings and 2 suicide. That’ll grow some hair on your chest (even if you’re a lady). For patrons that used to frequent this location note that the suicide wing sauce was changed and is milder nowadays to accomodate more customers, but still hot.
Pub Chips – The epitome of awesome. You can get normal pub chips with cheese or the works which are with cream and chives and other goodness. It’s a huge mound of wedges and can easily serve 2 or more. They also blanket it with cheese.
Service – Pretty good. Waitresses are typically pretty attentive and polite. Usually greeted at front unless the “seat yourself” sign is up.
Happy Hour Specials – Wednesdays are wing night. $.40 wings served in multiples of 5.
Other Food / Comments – Great place in central San Diego for wings n beer.
