    Oysters.

    Was out riding around and pulled up Gmaps to find a place for lunch. Saw at the Brewery there was food so decided to check them out. Well, beyond the the great beer came a delicious grilled cheese. Then to see they had east coast (Massachusetts) Oysters was a surprise. I prefer East Coast oysters. So this was a find. Oysters were great. Service was great. The staff was super friendly. Can't wait to head back.

    Good experience here. A strong variety of items in the bowl. And overall it felt reasonably priced…read more The avocado very noticeable tasted fresh as well, which was great. The sauce on top had a good spice level as well. Some of the vegetables in the bowl didn't taste super fresh to me, but overall really happy with the food here!

    FOOD POISONING! I…read morerarely leave reviews, but I feel I have to warn others after what I've gone through. I ate here last Monday and fell ill that same night. The entire night and throughout Tuesday I became violently ill. Classic food poisoning symptoms. I've never gotten food poisoning to this magnitude. At first, I hoped it was a one-off, but the effects have lingered all week. I spent all day Wednesday and Thursday extremely delirious and weak from recovery. I was finally starting to feel a little better, and then last night(Saturday) the symptoms returned: nausea, stomach pain, sulfur burps, extreme bloat/gas, feverishness. Almost as if my body was relapsing from whatever I'd eaten. I was very close to going to the hospital to make sure I didn't have a stomach infection. It's now been almost a full week and I'm still not back to normal. I haven't been able to eat much besides applesauce, broth, tea, and crackers. I'm disappointed because I was really looking forward to the meal. I'm even considering giving up dairy because I am traumatized by this experience. I should've checked their reviews before ordering. I'm not writing this out of anger, but out of genuine concern. Something in their food handling or storage seems unsafe, and it's worth the restaurant taking a serious look at. I added a picture of what I ordered.

    5 stars easy. I came up to Watsonville from LA for work for a couple days and was looking for a…read moresolid spot with good food, cold beer, and somewhere to catch the football game. I almost drove right past this place because it's a true hole-in-the-wall, but once I saw the parking lot full of people I knew that was a good sign. Walked in and the place was lively, full of locals, old-school vibe, and the bartender was awesome. I was starving and ordered the steak, chicken and shrimp plate. Bro... that skirt steak was ridiculous. Everything tasted fresh, even the fries and coleslaw were way better than I expected. Big portions too, and they even throw in a little piece of chocolate cake which cracked me up, but somehow fit the whole vibe perfectly. The food was so good I came back the NEXT DAY for lunch and got the New York strip. I was still chasing that skirt steak from the night before but the NY strip was fire too. You can tell this place takes care of its regulars and actually cares about the quality of the food. No fancy BS, just good people, great food, big portions, and a legit local atmosphere. Anytime I'm back in Watsonville, Wooden Nickel is an automatic stop.

    Amazing food and great customer service!…read more I ordered a non-alcoholic beer that was served at just the right temperature. For dinner, I had the mushroom burger, which was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. It came with French fries, coleslaw, and even a little piece of chocolate cake! I guess I'm just not used to this level of service and such generous portions! I'm really enjoying the small-town feeling. I am definitely coming back!

Be careful of the lots which are private and will tow you. Service - great. Harper busy Friday night but service was prompt and efficient Food - delicious burger and fries. Burgers had great homemade pickles and fries were cooked and seasoned perfectly Brew - huge selection of beers.

Our top favorites: Burger: The burger buns are made fresh daily as well as the premium meat used to make the patty's. It comes with fries that have the perfect crunch. Buttermilk salad: There is so much flavor with every bite, tossed with an amazing house-made dressing (don't forget to add their juicy grilled chicken, BOMB!). Spicy fried chicken sandwich: The sauce on the sandwich is perfect for spicy lovers. I am obsessed with the crunch of their fried chicken - mouth watering!! You cannot go wrong with any of the items on their menu. Top tier!!
