And also , without fail, it's loved by all. There are a few tips , 1) if the high schoolers are out for lunch , be patient, everything is made by hand and to order , it can get pretty hectic. 2) bring your appetite- the portions are generous 3)step out of your comfort zone try some of their sides. 4) you've got to try the green Thai tea !

Place has very cute vibes; great as a vibrant hangout that doesn't get too loud. Three pigs pizza-5/5 Thin crust pizza with a very nicely chewy and flavorful crust. Touch of arugula was nice to contrast the heartier flavors of the meats. Brussel sprouts -4/5 Only weak link in our spread. Underseasoned (needed more salt and some zest), but fresh veg and with a nice char. Loaded potato wedges -5/5 I needed these boys on my local menu yesterday! These beastly boys are humongous Spears of the softest potato with a delightfully crunchy batter and plenty of fixings to dress it up good. Honey mustard? Something. Spicy chicken slider - 5/5 Lightly spicy, but mostly sweet. Very well composed as a sandwich with just enough of everything for a tight bite. Plenty of crispy fry and sauce, but not drowning in it either.

Always Trust the Gift Shop Lady. Always…read more We had just conquered the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse--which apparently requires climbing three flights of "not-quite-normal" stairs. After a morning canoe down the Big River and those stairs, we turned into ravenously hungry people. We asked the gift shop lady for food recommendations. Without skipping a beat, she said: "Patterson's Pub! If you get there before 2:00 PM, you can get brunch!" Challenge accepted. We took our appetites straight to Mendocino's main drag. They had a tented patio in the sunny-but-stubbornly-windy Mendocino air, but we opted for the interior. Good choice. It has the ultimate "Authentic Irish Pub" starter pack: Cool and dark? Check. Crisp draft beers? Check. Full bar? Check. The SF Giants game playing on multiple screens? Check and check. We successfully beat the 2:00 PM brunch buzzer, and the specials menu looked to good to pass up! Lobster Wontons (Pub Special): Gone in a literal flash. Blink and you missed them. Crabcakes Benedict (Pub Special): Hands down, the best this diner has ever had. The hollandaise sauce (which they kindly served on the side per request) was a lemony deliciousness! The Comfort Food Crew: The rest of the party ordered clam chowder (Boston), garlic bread, and a fried cod sammy with thin-cut fries. All around lip-smacking! The Liquid Refreshment: Paired it all with a half-pint of Scrimshaw Pilsner (shoutout to local Fort Bragg brewing). It hit the spot and paired perfectly with the crabcakes benedict! The "Too Spicy" Drama: We did hit one minor speed bump. One of the dishes turned out to be a bit too spicy for one of our sensitive diners (not me). The waitstaff deserve a medal here. They went out of their way to try and "de-spice" the meal. While my companion's tastebuds were past the point of return, the staff's effort and sweetness were noticed and much appreciated! . Excellent customer service. The Verdict: A wonderful, perfect meal for a weekend getaway in the Mendocino/Fort Bragg area. We will absolutely be back. Let this be a lesson to you all: always ask a local!

The Peg House has a cute gift shop, general store with booze and basics (famous brownies and ginormous cookies!) and next door is the outdoor restaurant. It has a great vibe, owner took out orders and you KNOW by the taste and food service how much love and thought goes into this place! We had: Grilled Chicken w/brie Bigfoot Burger Classic Cheeseburger All came with coleslaw and that was great too! We plan on making this a pitstop from now on. Everything was delicious and there was live music on stage. **if you're camping get wood here too-it's a great price for the large bundle. Thanks Peg House!

We came in the evening around sunset and sat outside since we had the pup. This is a great spot for lake views. It's casual and there's a decent amount of outdoor seating. Inside, we only passed in and out but it gave more of a restaurant and bar vibe for the locals. Service was friendly. To eat, I got the Turkey Bacon Avocado Sandwich. It was a good sandwich, basic but had the fixings and the fries were crispy. Companion got the Fish and Chips. Honestly, the quality and taste surpassed both of our expectations. The other items looked fine, typical American fare but a bit pricey for what it's worth. For those looking for a bite or drink with a nice view, I recommend Stowaway Grill only if you're in the area. They have a nice patio and parking outside. Find the off Lakeshore Blvd.
