Friendly staff, good selection of beer. stopped in yesterday after hiking in the snow and enjoyed a irsh stout before heading down the hill. Will definitely be back to try the food.

This was the best bbq sandwich I've ever had! They even served a side of the grease for extra flavor!!!! Hands down a whole new level of greatness of flavor! It's obviously a prime or wagu meat, it had to be! I grew up in Santa Maria too (tri tip capital of the U.S.)! So I know my bbq! I can't wait to try the rest of their food! Oh ya, there's a FULL FREAKING BAR TOO!!!! Chugged an ipa beer to top it off!

Went here after a hike with friends and was so pleased! This place is awesome. Great food, good drinks, friendly staff. The decor is so cool inside. I would make a trip up the mountain just for this place.

I have loved valley farms market since the 70s ( yes you hear this all the time) my Christmas prime rib roast was perfect. Here I sit at the outpost enjoying the best cocktail and Baja bowl. The place was super busy and the service and food was amazing! There is a reason you all are so successful. Thank you for the perfect end to a difficult day. ?

A new family favorite! Fantastic, unobtrusive live music on Friday nights (think undiscovered Chris Stapleton), super cozy environment, good food, great drinks at an inviting bar. Lots of cute dogs hanging around, and a warm community. Try the mescal margarita (pictured)! Brad, the bartender, makes a great one.

Cool spot to stop for some BBQ. The warm fireplace was great on a brisk morning while traveling by motorcycle. Cool ambiance with lots to look at. My tri tip sandwich with fries was very tasty. The seasoning on the fries had me hooked. A nice little stop on mount laguna. We will be back.

After conquering a hiking trail, we stumbled into this joint craving liquid revival. The vibes were all cozy and chill. Went for the espresso martini and pomegranate ginger mule. The mule? A blissful 8/10 sip of heaven. Now, the espresso martini, folks, it's like they let an alien experiment in mixology. Save your $14 and dodge that concoction. I'm genuinely worried it might be a secret plot to test our endurance. And carne asada fries with chamoy? We're not that far from Mexico. Do some menu soul-searching. Bonus points for the singing Santa, but my ass cheeks nearly hibernated in the porta potty. A solid 6.3/10 for the wild ride. Cheers to refreshing/ questionable drinks and frozen cheeks!

The outpost had amazing food and great service. I loved the scenic drive there. They had LIVE MUSIC and it was so good.

Stopped in for lunch and to warm up a bit on a chilly Sunday morning. Sat at the bar and watched football while sipping whisky and eating appetizers. Pretzel bites were great. Carne asada fries were perfect. A little spicy, crispy fries, and tender steak. Waitress was very accommodating and pleasant. Regular customers started coming in and then place started to liven up. This place is so much better than the pine house cafe and tavern. Loads better!
