Delicious!!! The pizza was amazing:and I'm a Chicago pizza snob:). The quesadillas were fab and the sauce yummy. Stop in-grab a beverage and use the wifi.

Close to the campsite we were staying at, this looked like a nice place to get dinner. I wasn't hungry but at the same time, I wasn't sure what time breakfast was going to be the next day. I ordered a BBQ chicken sandwich which had chips and a pickle. For a drink I ordered a light beer. My friend ordered a chicken quesadilla and a rootbeer. The vibe is definitely a cabin feel the rain outside made it feel like that even more.

The most incredible food ( got fish tacos and calamari) and loved the little patio in the back! Portion size was also pretty good given this place is pretty touristy!

Hidden gem! The tap house side is the one with hot meals and a nice selection of beer. They also have free Wi-Fi! We tried the caprese sandwich and the truffle fries along with some local beers. Great service as well!

My wife had an excellent tuna sandwich and I had an excellent ham and pepper jack. That make it how you want it.

Fri night 7pm vibe check: Make sure you get shitfaced drunk BEFORE you come here. As we walk in and place our order, the gang cranks up the PA and blasts us with: "i got a hole in my pants and my balls are hanging out". Who knew the bar-keep freestyles too!? Food is basically spam and cheese. Atmosphere is "bad acid trip" meets "sloppy drunk jam sesh with your burnout homies". Its a mess. And loud. And the food is trash- did i already say that? Dont go. Make oatmeal in your hotel room. Save yourself the trip. And the FORTY DOLLARS your lunchmeat sammies costs you. Lol geez expensive and bad. The owner reaches out to every negative review on here and patches things up, so my hope is that they'll come give me a big'ol electronic kiss and make it all better. This place sucks.

We are in Carmel Valley. Been raining for days and hubby has never been. We ventured out even though it said the road was closed. Wooo hoooo road was open and they had power here. THIS was worth the drive and slight anxiety with all the wetness of the mountains. This is by far the best tacos we've had. Even hubby got in on the yelp and gave review. So this is so worth coming in. yummm

This place is awesome. Little spot on the side of the road nestled in the trees along the river. The drive to get here is so beautiful. The food was absolutely top notch. We had carne tacos that are huge and the chips and salsa are spot on. Great food great location!!! A definite must visit in Big Sur

Beware, bar for locals only! Don't expect to come here and feel welcomed. Felt more like an inconvenience trying to get a beer since I was taking away from the bartender's personal drinking sesh. Was asked to move away for their "local's only" game night. Chugged my beer and left disappointed. 2 stars because the market that is connected was super friendly and stocked with great last minute items.

Kitchen closes at 8, be aware. No food for us. Three very loud people propping up the bar.

Great food, chill and welcoming atmosphere! We were visiting Big Sur, and the Taphouse seems like a place where locals convene :) Def recommend!

Great casual local ambiance, great food, store/deli next door for forgotten/low supplies, & fabulous tap selection. Possiibly last store before southern road (HWY1) closure?
