Dirty Fries
Ricardo G.

Great service with friendly hosts! Great inside decor and looks very well maintained and cleaned. Dirty Fries - 9/10 Would definitely recommend. The crema mixed well with the queso, making a mouthwatering combination. The bacon was also a nice touch with the scallions. Outside Voice - 8/10 A nice crust with a good flavor. Wish it has more tots and other toppings, but the flavors were on point and I'd also recommend.

Stopped by this plaza a handful of times already but this was the first time eating at Calicraft. Love that it's open seating and self served (order from the bar or from the tables QR code). We went on a Saturday during lunch which surprisingly wasn't too busy and all of our drinks and food came out fairly quick. Staff was super friendly, food was good, portions are definitely more than enough. Garlic fries could've used more garlic flavor but otherwise no complaints about anything we got. Only thing I would say is that if you plan to keep a tab open on your phone during your stay, to create an account otherwise it'll idle too long and your check will disappear. This happened to us so I have to check out with the bar rather than on my phone, which is not a problem but on a busier day I could see a wait on trying to get out of there if the staff is busy. Definitely coming back and enjoying the outdoor seating with the heat going away!

Bombs away (switched out roasted red peppers for mushrooms).

Love this spot. Located in a cute plaza. Spacious seating, indoor and outdoor options. Pizzas are thin crusted just how we like it! Lots of drink options to choose from. Friendly service. You can order at the bar or QR code from the table.

I highly enjoyed eating and drinking at this spot! Pizza was new and very unique. I wish they would have the Parmesan shakers and offered additional ranch for free. Not much service, order by QR code find a seat and enjoy to eat!

This was our first visit to this brewery. As it is in a popular area parking can be very difficult to find. When you walk up to the brewery you see there is plenty of indoor and outdoor space with heaters for colder temperatures. They have a good selection of beers and cocktails and a food menu. Staff were friendly and the bartenders assisted with our cocktails and a flight of beer. We enjoyed the pizza and shishito peppers.

My friend was celebrating the 20th anniversary of his 21st birthday here. It was my first time so I was excited to go! We made it to Happy Hour with 30 minutes to spare. I ordered the Baja Fries (carnitas, jalapeños, crispy shallots, cotija, pickled red onion, chipotle crema). I wasn't expecting a big portion since it was Happy Hour and an appetizer, but it was HUGE! I ended up taking half home - WIN! The fries were crunchy still and there was a good amount of meat. I didn't taste much of the chipotle crema or the cotija, but there were PLENTY of jalapeños - way too many for me. I had a slice of the pepperoni pizza while I waited. The crust is VERRRY thin. It was flavorful and the pepperoni was kind of spicy so that was a pleasant surprise. I only drank water, but I heard the drinks were all pretty good. Our birthday boy enjoyed his shots! I forgot to take pictures of the brewery itself but the vibe was awesome. There was a game area with cornhole and Connect Four. I think some more ambient lighting outside might have been nice, but that would be my only suggestion. I will definitely be back!

You had me at vegan pizza and beer! Such a cool place. I enjoyed the outside heaters, cornhole game, picnics tables outside are a good extension of the indoor space. I like the rollup doors, it feels like I'm still a part of the ambience inside while sitting outside. I enjoyed the hip-hop music they played. It wasn't too loud or had any foul language, it added to the vibe. The staff behind the bar were amazing. Can you believe the drinks aren't only $10?! Great pricing and they have a vegan pizza options. And shout out to Aaron behind the bar who was so personable and just a vibe!

Cobb Salad (Large)
Tomomi S.

What a fun place to eat, drink and hangout in Davis! Great beer menu and other yummy drinks : both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. We tried 5 different kind of beers (IPAs and stout) and they were all very tasty. Foods are good too. I loved my Cobb salad, huge volume and tasty toppings, and you gotta try their Dirty Fires! So good. Super friendly and attentive service, makes you want to come back again and again.

Yayyyy Davis!!! This is a lovely new addition to the town and I see huge potential for live music, large events, birthday parties, etc. The food is good although I took a star off bc I could do with some more veg options. Love the ambiance and the friendly staff. The kids were happily occupied w the lawn games while we continued to drink.

Beer Flight!
Stacey F.

The beer was good. Nothing super amazing and worth going out of my way for, though. I liked the flight option but feel $4.50 for a 5 oz. pour is a bit steep. The food has potential. We ordered the shishito peppers, musubi fries, and kids grilled cheese sandwich. Kid enjoyed her grilled cheese on a burger bun. The shishito peppers would have been soooooo much better if the sauce came on the side. They were so gluey ans overwhelmed with the amount that came on them. The musubi fries were also oversaturated with way too much sauce and were way too sweet. Gloopy and sugary instead of spicy and savory as expected. Some suggestions-- 1) if you keep your Toast ordering platform, activate an option for folks to request sauces on the side. 2) Slice the musubi and grill both sides before cutting into larger cubes. Musubi has a nice char to it. These tiny, soggy pieces did not and were underwhelming. Service was very friendly and I liked the different screens and lawn games available. Plenty of seating, too. Those were perks.

Beer is good but nothing special. Service is slow, I thought it would speed up as they got their feet under them but it hasn't happened. Nice location and ambiance and I hear the food is good though I've only tried the hummus. A couple other places in town with better beer and better selection.

Seating
Rufhiline T.

Very cute spot for a hang-out with drinks! I was excited to see that they were opening a brewery in this specific area because it adds balance to the activities that you can do here plus there used to be a popular establishment here back in my college days. The flight I got had unique flavors and they were definitely pretty strong We also got a pizza but I was too busy yapping and forgot to snap a picture! The interior was aesthetically pleasing and gave off warm vibes. Need to go again!

Gorgeous, am I right?
Monica C.

What a beautiful venue, event space, and just a nice hangout for a beer/cocktail and food. This location was breathtaking and spacious. Georgina (one of our event staff waiters) was very attentive and handled the craziness our party brought like a true champion. I grabbed a Aperol Seltzer Spritz that was executed perfectly and the bartenders mixology skills were very on point (wish I got his name). I also decided to order the Pizza Slipper (which depending on the part of the country you're from is known as a Wedgie or a better well-known Calzone. A must try if you love a sour dough crust. Come in for the food and the hospitality.

Very family friendly, plenty of parking, a really nice outdoor seating area with patio chairs, fire pits as well as tables and chairs. Misters and shade sales too. Outside area is fenced in with an entry,. And there was some stuff for the kids to play with. Good sized indoor seating area with an arcade off to the side. You order by a QR code and servers bring food to the table. A nice varied beer menu as well as a selection of wines and NA beverages. We shared deviled eggs and a couple of soft pretzels and got entrees. Service was friendly and efficient. My steak sandwich and fries were tasty. Beer was good. Everyone liked their food and drinks. Definitely worth a return visit.

The restaurant closed and for a while they were in transition. In the meantime, I found the dock store, which I truly loved. Really great vibe and a fantastic way to try a lot of beers that you would never find anywhere else. The people were amazing. Not really a food experience, but they did their best to bring in some good food trucks, etc., until the restaurant opened again. Now the restaurant is open fully as of a couple of years ago. Completely refurbished, and it looks great. The problem is that the service is really strange. Consistently. I can't tell you the number of times I've sat on the patio only to be ignored for a half an hour or more. Inside is also hit or miss. That seems to be their Achilles heel The food has improved considerably. Four stars for that! Prices are reasonable for better than average bar food. They do have some nice specials from time to time. The patio is great. Yes, trains will go by, but it's pretty infrequent and hey, you've got to expect that! They do their best to keep it cool as well. The live music can be very good and not deafening, which I appreciate. Pub quiz is always fun as well! And how can I not mention the beer? The beer is great. There's always something new to try, and it's local, which I love. I keep hoping the service issues would improve. That would definitely bump them up a star in my book.

It's been a tale of 2 Dunloes for me at the Local…read more On a visit here quite some time ago, the bartender clearly favored his regulars over some rando who walked in wanting to try Dunloe beers. While a certain amount of preferential treatment for familiar faces is simply human nature, the contrast felt greater than what could be considered good service. Maybe the Local was only for locals. More recently, on another trip staying in downtown Davis, I decided to give the Local another whirl. Pulling up a stool at the bar on a Saturday afternoon, the bartender extended a friendly greeting. Huh. Service was personable, knowledgeable, & attentive this time around. After a little conversation, I found out he was filling for the regular bartender. Huh. Well OK, then. So I got to trying some beers. They don't do taster pours/ flights here. Everything's at least 1/2 pours. The bartender informed me that they do taster pours/ flights at their brewery location in town. Just not here. Honestly, that's a bummer for me. But I had a few 1/2 pours to taste what they got. For someone who's a bit beer snobby, has far too many 1000's of beer check-ins on Untappd, & once-upon-a-time homebrewed for many years, the beers were good. Not whale-hype mind blowing. But good. Service was nice this visit. It'll be interesting to see which Dunloe Brewing I get on any possible future visit to the Local...

I've tried a lot of different things on the menu but my go-to order is the Bleu Cheese Burger with Curly Fries and ranch.

I'm not sure if it's like this every day but…read moreI went on a weekday and you order up at the counter they give you a number and you sit down. They have menus easily accessible right outside for you to look through. They have tons of choices, I just got the classic cheeseburger with pepper jack. He had the avocado burger. We ordered medium well since we don't like the pink in it when it comes to burgers anyway. The service was good and friendly. The prices were pretty normal. I like that you get a choice between french fries or salad. Of course we both chose french fries though lol. Each table already has ketchup, salt, and pepper. I like that there was just water that you can refill up yourself so you didn't have to be left waiting and can drink as much water as you want. They had a good selection of beers and it was a nice casual atmosphere. Wasn't too crowded, but I'm sure that might be because I went during a weekday afternoon. It was hot, but they had sprayers and fans going, which is nice. And although wasn't complete full sit down service, the workers still checked on us which I felt that means that they genuinely care about their customers. Now, the food! The burger was cooked perfectly with the right amount of char on the outside and still moist and juicy on the inside. The pepper jack cheese was melted, and the burger was seasoned well. All the vegetables were fresh, crispy clean lettuce. I felt like the pickle they either made it themselves or they get it from somebody handmade. And the buns also tasted homemade. We were both impressed with our burgers, however, the avocado burger, which he got had a lot of mayonnaise on it. So just a heads up they do put pretty much all the condiments on the burger so just make sure to specify what you want or don't want condiment wise when ordering. As far as parking, it's downtown so it's a lot easier to walk or bike to this location. However, there is some parking around the block and by the park - you just need to be aware of signs. I really feel like this place can host multiple different kinds of going out. We went out for a casual afternoon date, but of course there's families there, friends getting together, small groups of two or maybe even just one person and of course, larger groups were there too. I can see it being a kind of a cool date spot for more casual kind of date and of course I can see this being used as like family gatherings so I like that it's very versatile . We will definitely be back! I especially need to try more of their brews
