We were in the area for Twitch Con and decided to grab some drinks and food somewhere since our original hidden Tiki Bar was only taking reservations. We found this place which had a completely different name and theme to it but maybe the site didn't update and we were taken to the Common Theory instead. Luckily they had space for our fairly large group so we went for it.

Overall it was a good experience. Definitely can see coming here with a large group as there are a few big tables and plenty of options for everyone. They have decent happy hour prices and the pretzel bites and flatbread were pretty good. The only thing I advise is the parking lot is TIGHT so be mindful when you are driving

Parking: Parking is tight and limited

We had a great time at Common Theory while waiting to get into 52 remedies.

There were a bunch of great beers on tap. The tasters were amazing so we tried a bunch of them.

The service was fabulous - both bartenders were knowledgeable and friendly.

We will be back again!

Parking: Parking is always tough on Convoy. There is parking in this plaza and nearby street parking as well.

Kid-friendliness:...
