About this restaurant

  • Great for live music
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Lively
The Landings Gastropub is not your typical airport restaurant or bar. We pride ourselves on our focus on quality, service, creativity and atmosphere. Everything from our unique cocktails to our pub-inspired menu and carefully curated craft beer list are locally-sourced and of the highest quality. Both our dining room and large patio have a panoramic view of the Palomar Airport runway. Bring the family, enjoy a cocktail and watch the planes come and go.

We accept reservations for groups up to 8 people. Please call for larger parties.

Please note: For Friday and Saturday concert nights, we enforce a $30/person minimum to cover the cost of the bands.

    Gotta love the vibe. I really enjoy seeing the planes come and go. Music for brunch - they go hand in hand. One of my favorite places to come and relax. Always a good time!

    We had a wonderful brunch sitting outside on the patio watching the planes come and go. The musician, Collin, was an added bonus!

    We had a very nice server he seemed to be in training. I believe his name was Casey. His trainer did not seem to have much personality. We listened to nice music enjoyed our Burger and drinks, about 7:15 they let us know they were sending our server home. If we wanted anything we would need to go up to bar. Seemed he was the only server so why on earth would you send him home so early? Unfortunately, we and another guest felt like we got half our service.

    We really enjoyed the band "Pretending Chrissy" and the dancing! We both had the meatball sandwich that is new on the menu and it was really good! Our server Deana did a good job and was always checking on us to see if we needed anything.

    The fish tacos and steak sandwich were our selections. They were both very tasty and presented well.

    Table was awfully off-center, drinks spilled all night with e er wobble! Only 2 menus available for 6 guests, and menus were wet paper inside a plastic sleeve. So wet the back side print was seeping through to the other side and made it difficult to read. At least 10-15 minutes before wait staff arrived after we were seated, didn't introduce herself, not a great attitude. Then we got a different wait staff that took food order. Later asked first waitress for drink refill, she says she will get our waiter. Who's on third?? Where's Waldo?? Whose our wait staff?? Definitely not the same place with the new management!!
