We celebrated the opening of Highway One through Big Sur by driving up from Malibu to Santa Cruz on an absolutely perfect winter day.

We wanted to watch the Rams/Seahawks game. Nepentge doesn't have TV so we pulled into Big Sur Tap House just before kickoff.

We comforted ourselves with comfort food. A nice plate of nachos and some chicken bites or whenever you call them.

Tenders. I was with German Tim, so he drank beer and he gave it the thumbs up

It was a nice crowd. And there's a crew of smoky rascals there who remind me of growing up in Santa Cruz in the seventies if you know what I mean.

Big Sur Road was spectacular driving up and even more so, driving back: The hills were as green as Ireland, the sunlight was golden, the sky was blue, the water was Carribean clear and there were whales spouting.

We stopped at the gift shop to buy some stickers and they have a good deli there.

If I had any friends, I would tell them, but I don't so I'm telling you.

We stumbled upon this place after a short hike and it ended up being some of the best food we had during our entire California trip. The most delicious sandwiches I’ve ever had in my life. Vibes were immaculate. Service was great. Highly recommend to stop in on your Big Sur road trip

Great place to hang out inside or out. Very comfortable environment, friendly patrons and friendly stuff. Would give staff, environment, and other visitors a five out of five. Their pub food probably would appeal to vegetarians or if you enjoy beyond meat. I personally do not like how it tastes so found the veggie fajita is good but missing a vegan protein option like much of Big Sur. Really fun environment to hang out though, and I will definitely go back.

We spent an evening on the back patio. We had the pretzel, and a few glasses of wine. The pretzel was hot and delicious. The two sauces were great too. I also loved that it was decorated for Halloween.

Always a perfect stop in Big Sur. The locals are friendly, the beer is cold, and the food is perfection. If you are a local or tourist this is a great place to make good friends and enjoy great beer. Sports is always on and board games or chess available. Perfect for a stop off on a drive down the coast.

I happily drive 2.5 hours for their pastrami ruben. The staff/bartenders are always super nice and willing to answer your questions about their beers on tap.

We stopped here to have a drink and watch a football game. They had a great beer selection, including Pliny the Elder. The bartender was very helpful in assisting me with a beer selection and put the game on the TV for us. The patio upstairs was a nice place to watch the game.
