Navajo Live is a decent live music venue by night and an okay bar during the day…read more I've been to Navajo live both during the day just for a beer of two and at night to see a band perform. A dark bar, the lighting is nearly nonexistent during the day. Drink prices are reasonable and the bartenders and regulars are friendly. It gets pretty crowded when the band fires up. The low ceilings can make it seem a bit claustrophobic. The acoustics aren't the best, but when you're head banging, acoustics take a backseat to volume. LOL!

The bathroom remodel is nice...not like a bar but like mini-Vegas nice. Weird that they closed the garage doors out front at 815pm! I understand noise ordinances but like 9pm would be cool.

I am glad that this local brewery space did not remain idle for too long after Pacific Islander…read moreBrewing moved out (RIP). Welcome new decor changes and a removed partition wall provided additional bar area and table seating. The open concept, also pet & family friendly, lets us see the brewing tanks while providing a neat backdrop and unique space for the Trivia Night host. The front patio space has ample picnic table seats in addition to a front entrance area for pop-up eatery/food truck vendor to sell snackable bites. I have tried different tasty plates like skewers with corn ribs and rice from Ming Ouns to melted cheese with baguette and potatoes from The Raclette Stand. View their website for additional food options from burgers, BBQ, pizza, or tamales at https://darkblue-parrot-879468.hostingersite.com/menu/ We had a fun time at this year's 'Santa at Sunny' event. Holiday vibes, hoppy beer list, and awesome Christmas sweaters. RSVP'd as required so mini-me 2.0 got a neat gift from Sunny Grove Santa. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you to the friendly folks at Sunny Grove Brewing Company and congrats to Scott and Tessa the Besta for keeping the local craft beer scene going strong.

We visited Sunny Grove Brewing Company for the first time on a recent Sunday…read more We arrived around 11:00 AM. The L-shaped bar was about a quarter full. The space is really great. Inside and out on the patio. They have a very nice and large bar top. The place is quite large with an open and airy feel. Definitely cool brewery vibes. The bathroom was really impressive; huge and spotlessly clean. They have a great selection of beers on tap from light to IPA. Stouts, darks - a beer for everybody. Beer only right now. I enjoyed a very tasty Mexican Lager (La Bamba). Becky begrudgingly enjoyed one as well. She no longer drinks beer. She lost nearly 50 pounds by switching to low carb, low calorie seltzers a few years ago. That was our only disappointment, no seltzers. Not even in cans in the cooler. If we ever return, she'll have to bring her own. Sunny Grove does not have a kitchen, but they do host a different food truck or pop-up nearly every day. Check the calendar on their website for details. sunnygrovebeer.com Definitely a cool spot, just wish they'd add a seltzer even if it is canned.

Come here when bored on a Monday night just for a chance to catch one of his sets.

RIP Alibi...rebranded as The Malt House…read more Some well placed refurbishments, additional bar tables, barstools, and moved the jukebox to make room for a new shuffleboard table. ++ Kudos for the remodeled bathrooms...so fresh and so clean clean.

I think they're more into the Belgians, but I found a couple of West Coast-like IPAs. The cool thing about Burning is that they have food or an attached food truck. We went for Patty Melt/fries and a wedge. It was good and just my helpful two cents, if you're going to stay away from Rye bread in a Patty, you need lots of grilled onions. I love the white bread idea but it's more of a Chester than a Patty melt. Better news: Burning Beard is moving to a larger local, much larger, and a dedicated kitchen. Can't wait.
