“What a great find! We live in CA but visit relatives frequently. I'm not sure how we've never come across this place before!

Parkway Tavern checks all the boxes — great beer selection, delicious food, good music, and a really cool neighborhood atmosphere. It's tucked right into the middle of a residential neighborhood and feels like a true local spot.

The French dip was excellent. The roast beef was perfectly grilled, flavorful and tender, and the sandwich was really well done.

Bonus - the bathrooms were super clean!

Great food, great beer, ambiance, location and music. Definitely worth going a few miles out of your way!“

Beer Flight and wrap2tap Growler

“I've always wanted to visit this place, but I always seem to pass it on 6th Ave. It looks like they used to have a large assortment of beers you could have selected, but either the fridge is broken or the business model didn't pan out.

They do have 50 beers on tap with a good selection of wine.

It was quiet but picked up around 4:30, and a few parties took place outside.

I did see kids and dogs enjoying the outside seating.

I did enjoy #50, but it lacked a bourbon barrel flavor.“

“Found this little gem on a Thursday run with my running group. Stopped in afterwards and had the pear, arugula, goat cheese, and hot honey pizza. Wonderful pizza with all ingredients well balanced, albeit a bit messy. 😉 Was told by the bartender afterwards that next time I could add meat ingredients too. So if you want to guild the lily just ask.

The atmosphere was perfect for an intimate couple with soft lighting, quiet music, and dark colors. This would be a perfect cozy date spot (21+ only, so kid free zone). Plus, afterwards, there is gelato next door.“

“A lot of us still miss the old smaller place next door, the new bar is larger, louder and less personal. HOWEVER, there are very few places with as great of a beer selection on tap as Red Hot. Great growler discounts on Mondays, and don't forget the dogs...

Try the Hosmer Dog (or whatever they call the peanut butter and bacon hot dog now) TRUST EVERYONE.“

“They definitely need better lighting (like more chill) but this is a great bar! Good music, good for games or conversation, almost like hanging out at a family gathering where the dining room is the size of a bar. Drinks are fantastic and the owner is often there working the bar himself and talking with the patrons. Great guy.“
