Modern Times Far West Lounge Brewery • $$
470 S Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas

“The top sections on the menu are 100% plant based, and the second half has meat options. It sounds like they used to be fully vegan, so it’s disappointing they added meat to the menu. I enjoyed the Munchwrap and the smash burger was pretty good. Next time I hope to try the flatbread—they currently have one plant based flatbread on the menu.“

“Great food and even better service. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. What really stood out, though, was the service, Mel, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and genuinely happy with our experience. You can tell they care about both the food and the customers. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this spot.“

“My husband and I have been here for the very first time and we immediately fell in love with this place. The staff is amazing, they know how to treat you and make you feel at home. Alice is very passionate about her job and we loved her homemade desserts sooo much. A special mention to Michele, a very young yet extremely professional waiter, who contributed to create a cozy and pleasant atmosphere! As Italian, I can say it's hard to find place such Alice's where you feel so vividly the warm of our country. We will definitely come back!“

“Smallish restaurant with tiny parking lot of about 10 spots shared between 3 businesses. Like the roll up garage door windows, lots of outdoor picnic bench seating under shade canopies (which we couldn't use on this rainy day). Beer selection is pretty good, we had the meat lovers 12 inch pizza and liked the thin crispy crust, a bit skimpy on the toppings but tasty enough.

Parking: I think 10 spots between 3 (?) businesses in this very small strip mini mall.“

Blue Fire Brewing Brewery •
2892 South Santa Fe Avenue Ste 107, San Marcos - 9.86 miles

“I work somewhat local, and I always wanted to try this place. They seem like a “tucked away” brewery. I think too many people neglected this underdog of a brewery. They have a clean establishment and it’s pretty simple too!

The bartender Ryan was incredibly knowledge and personable. He did a great job informing me on your product and making me feel valued as a customer.

The interior was a bit bear and underwhelming, but it was simple and clean. It was really empty on a Saturday afternoonish time, and there was only one patron. I felt bad for the food vendor, but it didn’t seem that inviting either. Atleast the UPS guy gave him business.

Location is a bit random imo (probably the biggest killer of foot traffic for them) but I think they have a great facility and parking lot.

I think I might have heard of this organization thru a guest tap somewhere… or else I wouldn’t have cared to come out of my way and check y’all out.

I had the fest bier. It was a good beer. I think they have good variety but I wasn’t able to try a couple and get a good feeling of the overall beers. Great spot but a lil tough for me to come back since it’s not as convenient.

Gl and cheers“

La Costa Wine Winery • $$
7750 El Camino Real L, Carlsbad - 3.45 miles

“I wanted to surprise a special couple with two bottles of wine--one specifically for her and one specifically for him. I surreptitiously found out that they like going to La Costa Wine Co. and that Connor knows their profiles. So, I called the shop, asked for Connor, and explained what I wanted to do and who the bottles were for.

Ten stars to Connor! His passion for what he does was palpable through the phone. Almost immediately after I told him who I wanted to buy wine for, he told me they'd just walked into the shop. He went into a different room so they wouldn't overhear our conversation. Connor asked me about the price range I was interested in, we discussed a few options, and we landed on a red and a white that he was confident my friends would enjoy. When I asked if they like to munch on anything while they're drinking their wine, he said, Yes! The truffle popcorn. So, I added that to the order. The next day, I picked up the bag with the bottles of wine and the popcorn, and delivered it to her where she works. The best part of the surprise was that my friends loved the wines and, of course, the truffle popcorn!

My next visit to this shop will be to sit, relax and enjoy a glass of wine :)“

“Pizza was good not great. I did only try a quick bambino which is their small pizza so will need to try Detroit style and others later for more of the experience. They are a Detroit pizzeria I believe but it is amazing for viewing sports. Plenty of TVs and seating (variety of seating is great too). All around a nice place to bring the family or sport bros/gals.

If you are wondering about draft selection, they have a good amount of local and California beers as well as a couple commercial classics.“
