I need to give a special shout out to my two favorite waitresses Cara and Casey, thank you both for your beautiful service and for always being so kind to our family whenever we come. I really love this place. It's a local gem in Oceanside. The food and drinks are always good. The service is great and the vibe is always good too. Sometimes it gets a little loud on the weekends, but that's to be expected. It is a taphouse after all, and there are sports events on every TV and music playing in the background. I really love the girl dinner - only served Monday through Thursday. We really like the chicken pot pie, Caesar wrap, and the beef dip. The burgers and sushi are solid bets here too. You can't go wrong with their happy hour specials here either. The unique deviled egg choices are a reason to stop in for a bite. read more

This is local hidden gem with unique dishes from its kitchen and refreshing drinks from its taphouse. I was glad to hear that it didn't only serve local brews. Inside is pretty laid-back with ample seating and the outdoor seating is wayyy laid-back especially when there's live music. Definitely a recommended spot for the Yelp Community! FYI - Street parking is available. read more

LTH is one of our go-to spots! We have a tradition of ordering the featured deviled eggs and are always excited to see what creative variation we'll get that evening. The staff is consistently friendly, upbeat, and welcoming. No matter how busy the restaurant gets, they never seem fazed. We usually sit at the bar and enjoy an Old Fashioned, and at this point, I've tried nearly everything on the menu. Anything featuring the short ribs is absolutely divine, and even their French fries are a favorite of mine. I've also had the pleasure of visiting for brunch, which was phenomenal. If you're looking for delicious food with plenty of local flair, this is the place! read more

Local Tap House & Kitchen - Soooo many perfect lunch options - New American Near Me - Oceanside, California

I realllly like LTH. Was greeted and waited by Jasmine, who delivered great service! She was attentive, engaging and fun! 5/5 service. Knows a lot about the menu and made some great recommendations. I thought I'd have the willpower to just eat half the dirty bird but I ate the whole thing. The fries were also delicious and easy to eat. They have a full bar and offer a birthday shot for birthdays. My friend liked the Carlsbad Hazy IPA. They have some good options for dessert that looked really good to try. Wish they had Coke items but Pepsi isn't terrible. read more

I was in Oceanside while my husband was working nearby and decided to stop at LTH for lunch. This was one of my first times actually sitting down and dining by myself, and I'm so glad I chose this place! Parking was a little rough and the lot was FULL, but I took that as a good sign I went around 2pm on a Wednesday and there was a nice mix of families, couples, etc. You can sit inside, at the bar, or outside in the sun or shade. I chose outside in the shade and it was quiet, relaxed, and really comfortable. I ordered the Dirty Bird and it was SO good. The chicken was crispy outside, juicy inside, not oily or dry. The coleslaw was fresh and crunchy, the fries were nicely seasoned, and it was a good amount of food. They happily put my pickles and hot honey on the side too. I asked for ginger ale and they offered ginger beer instead, which was a pleasant little surprise! The menu has a ton to choose from. I actually wished I had people with me so I could try more things And for my fellow IBS friends, the women's bathroom has TWO stalls. These are important details!! I'd absolutely come back and bring my husband. Although he ate my leftovers, so I'm still a little mad at him. read more

Happy Hour M-F 3:30-5:30 Beef Birria Empanada ($7) - I loved how flavorful the consommé and garlic aioli were! I'd get this one again. Short Rib Taco ($6) - I appreciated how they loaded the taco with meat, but it could've been juicier and a little more flavorful. I'd go for the Spicy Shrimp Taco next time. read more

So happy to have this place within a 3 minute walk from my house, because I t's incredible. The indoor/outdoor set up is the perfect vibe. Service is always great but what stands out most is the food. Last night my wife & I had the best meal of our lives. The Chicken pot pie & the Chili Verde pork Mac n Cheese. The portions are HUGE! We couldn't finish either plate & it was only $44. We also love the sushi rolls, and every appetizer we have had is amazing. In a time where prices are increasing & quality & portions are dwindling, it's nice to be able to rely on this place. read more

Walked from Airbnb to this restaurant and it was the perfect spot for our group of 5. Jess beet it salad with shrimp was out of this world. My husband got brunch and said it was incredible. Adult kids with us got burgers and chicken sandwiches. Not a morsel left on anyone's plate. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful with the food and drink menu. Our water glasses were always topped off. Would definelty return when we are back in town. read more

Local Tap House & Kitchen - Jess Beet It salad with shrimp - New American Near Me - Oceanside, California

The Quinoa burger was decent, and the shrimp & sausage fettuccini was pretty good... but we don't think we'll be back. It took a while to be seated, and a while for our waitress to finally come over. With hungry children, that time is precious to us. The pretzel was honestly awful. It's covered in pepper, and their attempt at doing that appetizer elegantly just fell flat. The Old Fashioned was a miss. We left wishing we had gone somewhere else... especially for the price. read more

Rode down to LTH for lunch and to watch the finals of the FIFA World Cup (Spain vs. Argentina) . It was very busy but we still found seats. Ordered a couple beers and lunch. I had the Thai Fry Calamari & Shishito Peppers entrée (Coconut Panko Fried Calamari, Crispy Shishito Peppers, Serrano Aioli, Ponzu, Cilantro and Shaved Vegetables) while Matt had the Short Rib French Dip (Slow Cooked, Boneless Short Rib, Crispy Onions, Horseradish Cream. Swiss Cheese, Natural Au Jus and fries). Delicious food and great service considering the restaurant was packed read more

Haven't been here for brunch in a while and it was as nice as I remember! The brunch menu changed a bit since last time but kept my favorites and added some new intriguing options. This time I ordered the Beach Boy Croissant egg sandwich which was delicious. My husband and friend both ordered the Carnivore Hash, one with short rib and one with pork verde. The short rib one was amazing as usual and the pork verde one was good too. Our server was really nice and attentive, and the patio was nice with our dogs. read more

This local hotspot caught our attention when passing through the area. The garage doors for walls drew us in! We wanted a quick bite for lunch and this spot did not disappoint! We both ordered the Chorizo Angus Burger! WOWZERS! Flavor on flavor - the chipotle mayo tied in perfectly with the burgers well flavored patty! The seasoning on their fries was different! But Yummy! Our bartender was super attentive with our service! Made us feel like locals :D read more

Was my first time at LTH and it definitely won't be my last!! They have a good happy hour with discounted food and drinks. We had the deviled eggs ($3each on HH and you can order them individually) with different styles daily. Last night, they were southwest style with a jalapeño and a corn chip in them - I could have made those my entire meal!! My daughter had the Caesar salad chicken wrap and she said it was really good. I had the Salmon All The Time roll and it was also delicious!! Our service was efficient and friendly. The vibe of the restaurant is good, with a large bartop and numerous TVs available. They had the large windows open and it was a little chilly, but they have radiant heaters above the tables, which really helped. read more

Cool spot! We went on a Saturday night, the football games were on and the crowd was good!! We were able to sit right away inside, had Jazmin as our server. She was super kind and was very attentive- helped me find a cocktail that worked for me. Which was a mezcal/mango/cilantro cocktail, was very delicious! Just wonder if it could be iced down a lil bit more (but that's solely my preference) Cannot rave enough about the Beef Birria empanadas...to die for. My man, had the pot pie which he housed and i enjoyed the Short rib French onion sandwich!! The portions are unbelievable, we left very satisfied tonight with our meals and drinks. Will absolutely be back to enjoy the bar next time! Thanks LTH & Jazmin!! read more

One of O'sides best. Always something new on the menu, without replacing the old favorites. A bit loud being right on PCH but the D-bad motorcyclist and drivers showing off are not the restaurants fault. 10/10 read more

Came here on a fluke and so glad because we're moving to Oceanside and I can't wait to bring my family. Service was excellent, great recommendations and service from Kaila who rolled with the punches as we changed our opinion on order. Food had great flavor and the location is great for watching people. I didn't even grab a drink but the food will be a great reason to return for some drinking and people watching. read more

Local Tap House & Kitchen - This was sofa king good! - New American Near Me - Oceanside, California

Local Tap House in Oceanside has a great atmosphere with plenty of inside and outdoor seating, good food, and friendly service. Located right off the 101, it's near a lot of the local attractions. Parking can be challenging on busy nights in their small lot, but there should be plenty of street parking options. There are plenty of screens showcasing sports to keep you entertained and the music selection was also pleasant. On this latest visit I had a pint of Firestone Walter 805 and the Shrimp and Bacon tacos. We also shared the Beet and Burrata salad. The food was phenomenal and our waitress was very attentive. It had been quite sometime since our last visit, but we won't wait so long to come back for our next visit. read more

I like to try new things but I think the menu changed a little too much for my liking. I ordered some newer items that I didn't love. I came in for seafood stew and thy did not have it . Usually I got for that or the pot pie. I would still recommend just miss some of the old menu. read more

I came here with two friends to celebrate a birthday, and we were all blown away by how good everything was. We started off splitting mimosas and the Homey Hot Shrimp Bacon Tacos (three tacos) -- absolutely incredible. I ordered the Coconut Curry Udon Noodles with chicken breast, recommended by our wonderful waitress (she had braces -- wish I remembered her name, she was fantastic). I loved it -- 200% would come back just for that dish alone. To drink, I had the Duckfoot Honey Ale ("Drink this or the bees will die") and the Old Timer (an old fashioned). Both were excellent -- smooth, flavorful, and well-balanced. The birthday guy got the Short Rib French Dip and took the Chicken Orzo Goodness home for his wife -- he said the French Dip was delicious, and later told me his wife loved her meal too. My other friend had the Dirty Bird sandwich and grabbed the Bacon Truffle Mac & Cheese to go. Honestly, everything was amazing. We were all very pleasantly surprised. I initially expected this place to stand out mostly for its beer selection, but I was way off -- the food was spectacular, the beer was great, the cocktails were stellar, and the service was top-notch. I'll 100% be back again and again. So glad I found this spot -- looking forward to my next visit! read more

This place is truly a hidden gem! We stumbled upon it while heading home from SD to LA and are so glad we did. The atmosphere is casual and inviting with good music and perfect chill vibe. Our server Jazmin was amazing! Super friendly, fun, and full of great recommendations. The service was impressively fast for both food and drinks. They have a great variety of beers on tap, and I tried their Hazy IPA, Societe Bulbous Flowers, which was one of the best I've ever had, thank you Jazmin for the recommendation! My wife ordered the Pura Vida Smokey Mango Old Fashion, which she described as a "sipper", very strong, smooth, and delicious. For appetizers, we had the Thai Fry Calamari & Shishito Peppers along with the Fireman Sushi Roll, all super fresh and flavorful. For entrées, I went with the 60/40 Fritta Burger (a chorizo and beef patty you can actually taste), topped with a sunny-side egg, guacamole, and served with perfectly crispy and sweet fries. Hands down one of the best gourmet burgers I've had in a long time. My wife ordered the Pecan Crusted Scottish Salmon, which was equally amazing! The menu is fantastic, offering both unique creations and classic favorites. I also loved that one of the staff noticed my USC sweater and caught me turning my head around to watch the game behind me. She kindly asked if I wanted them to change the channel to the game on the tv in front of me. I thought that was very nice and shows how attentive they are to their customers. Overall, everything, from the food to the drinks to the outstanding service, it was excellent. This spot is an absolute must-try, and we can't wait to come back next time we're heading to San Diego! read more

Atmospheric place with both indoor and outdoor seating, which made the experience really nice and comfortable. My friend and I ordered burgers -- personally, I felt like the burger could use a bit more sauce, and the fries were slightly dry. However, my non-alcoholic mojito was absolutely amazing -- very fresh with a nice sour taste, and I also asked for it without syrup. The service was fast, and the presentation was great. This is a bar with a really good selection of alcoholic drinks and cocktails. Overall, the place left a very pleasant impression on me. read more

My family and I were traveling from NorCal and we were able to make a dinner reservation for 10 people in the day of, whew! Saved me a lot of stress with our large party. Only down fall was that our table was located in their open/semi-open patio with only a few heaters working. We made it work. Our server, Jenna was good and provided good recommendations. I tried the short rib which was delicious. My husband ordered the Cajun pasta and it was nice n' spicy. For an appetizer we opted for the roasted Brussels. These were good with just the perfect amount of blue cheese crumbles on top. This restaurant is popular for a reason. It has a good location right in the heart of Oceanside, nice on the beach but on a very busy road. Not much parking adjacent to the restaurant, so give yourself time to circle around for neighborhood parking. read more

Been pleasantly surprised by the food menu the last couple of times I've visited. The sandwiches are pretty solid, I usually go for the French dip. I also usually get some extra horseradish on the side. The Cajun shrimp and andouille sausage is also a winner, so good! The drink menu is pretty solid as well. Whenever I have gotten fries here, they seem to be soft for some reason, but that's been my only complaint so far! Servers are all great and if you come during the week it's not too busy and not so loud. It can get quite crowded on weekends or game days. read more

We've always loved this place. Brought my family today and very disappointed in the portion size. Ordered seared Ahi to put on a salad for an extra $14 and it was the tiniest portion of ahi. The salad was really dry so I asked for a little extra dressing and they charged me for the dressing. Going to a restaurant and being nickeled & dimed is very frustrating as we have many options in North County to dine. I will be taking my guests to Carlsbad Village where we live in the future. read more
