Publican was a delightful find while having a cart pod dinner. It was a cold, damp night, so…read morecomfortable, warm indoor seating and a friendly, well informed bartender were highlights. When we arrived, we had time to look at the drink options while watching the bartender create a delicate, delightful looking cocktail for the person in front of us. My friend and I had ordered Italian food, so we went with wine on this visit. The bartender was very knowledgeable about the local wines that he was pouring, and the prices were quite reasonable. Quality beverage options are a huge plus for the likely success of a cart pod. This one is a winner.

Great to have a year-round bar at the cart pod! There's an outward-facing side to it, so you can…read moreenjoy a drink from indoors or out. Bonus: the outside section is dog-friendly, but you need a code to enter that way, so no chance of accidentally being confronted by dogs of that's not your scene. Love the selection.

I wanted to like this place SOOOO badly but unfortunately it was TERRIBLE. This is into the second…read morenegative review I've ever left because I really only do it when my experiment is beyond awful. First of all the glasses they brought were filthy-mine still had a lipstick ring on it and at first I was willing to give them a break because it does happen sometimes but then I looked at my husbands and it had grayish flecks if stuff ALL over the rim. I asked fir new glasses and his response was icy at best even though I was very laid back about it and didn't make a deal. The next glasses we got were also dirty. Well mine wasn't but my husbands was. The owner was total trash. When we first walked in he was chilly but I just assumed he was a bartender having a bad day and cut him a break. However when I tried to chat with him while I waiting on my second glasses he was just rude. Super smug and pretentious. Finally to top it off the place smells slightly weird. Basically save your time and money and pick somewhere else.

Breakside is, more than any other place that comes to mind, all about the beer. Before you find the…read morebuilding itself, it's clear that you're in a light industrial, production setting - take the first, rightmost entrance off of International Way to find Breakside. The taproom has a nice system for tastings, letting you fill in the beers you want on a form that they use to pour, and your choices are laid out in the same order on a board. The biggest sign that beer is the focus is the choice (singular) of food. Your only option is chips and salsa - an unopened container of each. My guess is that they're in a building that is not zoned for any kind of food preparation at all. But this just reinforces the fact that Breakside is truly focused on beer, and their beers make it worth the trip from anywhere.

Beer was good but was hoping for more out of it after all the awards they've received. Not sure if my palette has changed but it didn't work for me.

I was at the bar top chatting with a friend about how much I love pickle martinis. The bar tender perked up.. pickle martini? I asked her if they serve them and she let me know she has never made one but would love to try. I let her do her thing and she brought me a great creation. The best part really is the toppings! She was so sweet. This place does karaoke a few nights a week. Everyone there is so pleasant and not afraid to get on stage and sing! They also have two nice pool tables and a covered out door seating area that is enclosed ( important if you know this area ) There is a lovely door person who checks ID's and is very welcoming. I absolutely love this place and enjoy a girls night here! There is a lot of seating which I appreciate. The bathroom is always clean and filled with the essentials.
