Our server was excellent, personable and new when to come over. We had a party of 7 and everyone received their food at the same time! I highly recommend the turkey melt.

The Pacific Beach Alehouse had delicious food and fun atmosphere. The burgers were huge so we were easily able to split them for a filling dinner. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. Having reservations for our group of 8 worked perfectly. I would recommend this place for a family or friend gathering.

We went for brunch and we all tried something different, they were all hits. The food did not take too long and everything was hot. Our drinks also were good and a good amount of alcohol. For a party of 8 it was relatively reasonable for the location and quality.

We watched a football game and had brunch outside. It was a great time and the service was wonderful. Some interesting food choices and everything was tasty. We transferred up to the rooftop and had a great view. The TVs weren't fantastic for watching the game, but adequate.
