Surprisingly diverse tastes are sated here. Our service could not have been better. Food excellent. In house beers are top notch.

Great vibe! Staff was super friendly. Food was great too! Awesome selection of local craft beer! Only complaint was that some of the games weren’t working. Not a big deal! Will be back next time we are in the area!

Idk what’s goin on with this place it’s already expensive for mediocre food but there’s just a 5% charge for no reason just trying to gauge the student that live there as well as anyone who comes in thinking they gonna pay wat the menu saysPoor

Started going to Draft Republic back when Urge was using the spot. But really nice area for with so many possibilities for events. You have the bowling alley, the large outside area, an arcade area and a bar area. Last time I visited here, I ordered the BO Beau's Famous Crispy Brussels Sprouts (pancetta, shaved parmesan, balsamic reduction). These were the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted. I mean not sure how healthy they are but wow I could definitely eat this ever day. Amazing taste, crispiness, and flavor. Would recommend this place!

Very nice place for a quick bite. Service was good and fast. Great selection of both food and drinks. Even has multiple arcade games for children. Didn't even notice they were there until we went to restroom.Parking: Little difficult since they do not have a parking lot.

This review is geared towards vegetarians. They do have a few options for both vegan and vegetarian which I appreciate, however they certainly do upcharge for these items. My wife got a supreme pizza but asked to have it with no meat, so no sausage or bacon and instead just crumble the plant based patty on top. They charged $3 extra to take the meat off and sub it for the beyond patty, really cheap. I got the regular burger which is $20 but then asked for the plant based patty, another $3 upcharge. It’s really frustrating when businesses know they can prove gouge you based on the fact you want a plant based option. Then they add the 5% surcharge at the end of the meal “for costs”, I mean who is getting that money? Either raise the price or just pay your people more. Lastly you have to pay to park. I went to watch a woman’s soccer game which I called ahead to make sure they were able play it and they said yes. I confirmed again they could show the game with sound when we checked in with the host and they said yes no problem. The game started at 515 and at 517 it still hasn’t started, then it came in with no sound. They said they could not play streamed games with volume, had I know that I would not have gone here, very disappointed. All and all I’m glad we checked it out but I’m not rushing back here anytime soon. Hosts and manager were nice but was not enough to make up for all the other stuff I didn’t like.

We came here as part of San Diego Restaurant Week and were very pleased. Went with the recommended menu items and loved it. Had the Republic burgers, pretzel bites and carrot cake. being a Coen Group Restaurant, no chance of disappointment. Highly recommend!Definitely going back!

Hostess and waiter were great, but I was not impressed with the Manager. I won't repeat his name but he looks like the actor Robert Patrick and he seated us. I received a glass of wine that I ordered and it looked like it was a little less than half full. So when the Manager brought it over I asked if he could put a little more in it. He literally frowned at me and rolled his eyes. Oh I got my drink back and not even a splash. That is so unprofessional and childish.

CROOKS - MEDIOCRE FOODWhile the atmosphere is popping the food is on the lower end mediocre spectrum. The nachos were ok but had very little meat and while the menu said $10 the CROOK WAITER charged me $30 for nachos...$30 can you believe that?The wings were hard and overcooked. The sauce they erre cooked in had a good flavor the wings were hard to chew and not tender. I ended up eating 1 and trying to eat a second but didn't finish it. The waiter charged me like $25 for 6 wings of which I only ate 1.The Watermelon Lemonade had a good taste but was excessively sweet. It was difficult to pass so I asked for a glass of water to water it down. The waiter seemed to have changed me like $10 for that glass of dissolved sugar.CROOKS THAT WAITER IS A CROOKToo end I left some pictures that will make you feel pleased and more satisfied.

Draft Republic in San Marcos provides a really pleasant atmosphere, though drinks/cocktails can be a bit pricey for my liking. Still, the overall experience was enjoyable, and I'd recommend it for a fun night out with friends.

It's a great place to hang out with family. The huge collection of board games and the outdoor seating make it a great spot. The food was very good.
