You order at the Bar counter for your Brew & for the tacos. The food is made at their permanent fixture food truck outside. The tacos are amazing and generously portioned. The Birria was my favorite! Carne asada was good too. The staffers are nice and ready to serve. There is high communal and individual table top seating inside and sports playing on the TV. Picnic Bench tables out on the front patio are & close to the food truck. It's pretty busy but worth the little wait for your tacos to be done. So sip sip while you wait for the buzzer to go off! Looking forward to our next visits here.

Save your time and grab food somewhere else if you really want their beer. Oh and then by the time they finally gave us our food, they forgot three items we ordered and proceeded to say "you didn't order those" So on top of being slow, it's sh*t service, and crappy people.

The dried figs and the feta combo with the greens and little bit of dressing (we asked for it on the side) - so good! Supreme pizza was loaded! Good amount of toppings and nice amount of spicy. Friends loved the white pizza and the cauliflower! We all went bowling after and had a great time. Love how they allowed dogs too.

They got the ambience and facility though. These guys know how to build, run and manage a family friendly sports bar. Service is solid, they have on all the games and lots of beers. The food is overpriced mediocre bar food and they sneak in fees wherever they can to turn your $20 burger into a $24 burger. But who doesn't do that nowadays. They are owned by the Cohn restaurant group which is notorious for Cisco supplied food but they got the decor and environment you want to hang out in for a long time. There is a reason they own so many spots and do so well. I will keep paying twice the price here than go somewhere cheaper and being around miscreants and degenerates. Appreciate them reaching out too to my review.

There was a softball fundraiser for San Marcos High, so we also had the option to get some food in the parking lot which was amazing. As it was a warm day, the food went perfectly with the beer.

Definitely take time to find and enjoy these new types of brews.

I plan to come here as many times as I can as I have never seen a brewery this beautiful and to be truthfully, I wanna live here lol. This place is just gorgeous, when you walk in, the main room just opens up into this beautiful spacious BIG room with so much natural light that it floors you on just how beautiful this place is! There is also an outdoor area and oh my! It was like a botanical garden here and they also have a fountain where they have fish swimming in it. A worker here was about to feed the fish when we showed up and asked some kids dining outside with their parents if they wanted to help feed the fish. How awesome! We were a party of 10 and got sat at an outside table. It was just a lovely afternoon to experience this venue. I ordered a habanero margarita and asked that the tequila be substituted with mezcal and that was doable. This drink was OK and next time, I might just get a beer. I had the poke nachos again and wow they were so good. I could eat this every day lol. A few other friends also ordered this dish too. Its popular and I can see why. We had a lovely time here and I am so glad I got to experience this place before it closes. NOOOOOO! I certainly hope it is just temporary and they continue to do something fun with this place. Truly a gem in Escondido! I loved it!

But the beer flight was enough for me. The FOOD was also very tasty!! We weren't that hungry coz we just came back from Safari Park. We already had food at the elephant valley restaurant there so we were only planning to get some drinks and snacks. We got the buffalo wings and their bolognese pasta. It was SO good that we will come back soon even though we live like an hour away. Sad news is that they're closing in November :( So go get your food and drinks before they close down. It was such a great place to relaxed before we hit traffic after the Safari Park! And they're super dog friendly too! Bonus point for sure! Even though we didn't have our dogs with us.

This was my first and last visit to this location…read more We came for trivia night and were shocked by how rude and hostile the female bartender was. I initially brushed it off as a fluke, but as the night went on it was clear it wasn't just me. Multiple people in our group and others experienced the same behavior throughout the night when ordering food and beer despite being polite and friendly to her. The final straw was when our friend was walking to his car with his 2 kids and she goes out of her way to yell, "Bye, princess!" At this point enough is enough and we asked to speak to the manager. As we are explaining to him the crazy aggressive interactions we had she began yelling at us from behind the bar and even raised her hands as if she wanted to fight. Now things are getting heated and we asked for our bill before it escalates any further. The manager passively apologized for her and comped one of our tabs but didn't leave us confident anything would actually change. I thanked him for his gesture but explained it's not about the money, it's the crazy treatment to customers just trying to enjoy their night. After reading other yelp reviews, it's clear this isn't an isolated issue. It's unfortunate because we love Pizza Port, but we won't be back to this location. The food was decent and the rest of the staff was friendly and helpful, but one employee completely ruined the experience.

What's better than going to one of your favorite Meaderies than going on National MEAD DAY ?!?…read more That's what we did! It falls on the first Saturday each August! Sipping on a sweet & scrumptious mead has been around for centuries but not everyone knows what all the Buzz is about. Mead is an alcoholic beverage made from honey. I'm a cider and Mead kinda gal in general so this is right up my alley. Meadiorcrity specifically specializes in Mead. Nothing Mediocre about it tho!!! So many flavors to choose from. On our visit we each got a flight that includes 4 tastings. That way we could try most of what's offered on tap! I liked each taster and each one was my favorite ~~ for its own unique reason. Some had notes of mint, cardamom, and or lime. All had such complementary notes that fused beautifully together! We enjoyed sitting on a cozy couch and chilled and chatting like we were in a cozy living room space. Family friendly and they have games available to play while you are there. Outside food is welcome as well. If you have a need for Mead this is a great choice to buzzzz on by!
