“Hands down, some of the absolute best food and cocktails in town. Christian’s menu + Franco’s mixology skills and humor make a long day at work easily forgotten. This is my Cheers with WAY better “bar food.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Everything. It’s perfect. The redwood sandwich co. That’s what’s on my mind Facebook. There’s a few places in town I will always visit. If you haven’t been here yet, you’re not trying hard enough. You’re hungry, you need a sandwich that feels like a sandwich. You don’t want one of those wimpy limp sandwiches that you find for $5. You know the ones, with the iceberg lettuce and the bread that tastes like nothing. You want a MANS SANDWICH. You’re not walking around on your twinkly toes. You might wear a tutu, but that doesn’t define your food desire. That’s right. You want mouth feel. You want to put it in your mouth and not talk for at least 10 minutes. You want food that makes everything stop and take pause. You’re grown, but this sandwich makes your hands look like a child. You’re ready to eat. And eat you shall. That tri tip sandwich is dripping with goodness. It’s a feast between two slices of bread. The thanksgiving sandwich makes you wish you spent your holiday here. Pair that with their soups that don’t quit, or their Mac and cheese that stops the world, you’re in food coma and all you’ve done is smell it. If you’re lucky, you’ll make it there when they have a pork belly special. It will turn you. You won’t know what hit you. But you’ll spend the month dreaming about that sandwich. You think you took a nap, but really, you closed your eyes to re live the feel of that sandwich in your hands, and no one had to know that you woke up eating your pillow. It’s ok, your secret is safe with me. Treat yourself. You deserve this.“

“I like their style and commitment to good comfort food. A great spot to enjoy breakfast, hearty or otherwise!“

“Cómida deliciosa y buen servicio“

“I grew up in Chico and returned here after 16 years of living in a larger city. Living in Meriam Park has been a dream transition space as I reacquaint myself to the eccentricities and community Chico offers.

I work from home and enjoy the ease of access to coffee at Daycamp, the dog park for my Boston Terrier, Dottie, and an after-work cocktail at Roselle's. The frequency of events (many of them free!) at The Barn is also wonderful. Despite the bustling business activity during day and night, I do find the neighborhood quiet with the low hum of the day ceasing in the early evening.

The amenities of the apartments are also a huge plus! Pool, dog wash station, bike storage, secure package delivery, fitness center, AND rooftop grilling? Excellent. My two-bedroom, two bath serves everything I need for both living and working in my home office. The buildings have up-to-standard mini-split units and my electric bills hover around $100-$150 depending on the month (and sometimes it's less). The fixtures, appliances, and finishing touches do not feel cheap and work very well. There is also a TON of storage. The grounds are well maintained and well-lit in the evening so I never feel nervous walking Dottie late at night.

Finally, the staff who support living in Meriam Park are prompt and very friendly. They greet me whenever they see me, even if they are off the clock. I feel confident in the support I have living here and the cost is absolutely a worthwhile investment.“
