A Glassell Park craft-beer bar with a deep back patio that’s one of the area’s best outdoor hangouts. The tap list is wide and well-curated, and the patio layout is built for long sessions with friends. Come for drinks and low-key outdoor social energy more than a full meal.
Must-Try Dishes:
Tap beer flight, Bar snacks, Rotating guest food pop-up
What Makes it Special: Big communal back patio with standout craft beer selection.
Primarily a deli and bottle shop, but their oven pizzas are a legit part of the draw—especially for groups grabbing food with drinks. Expect a hearty, tavern-adjacent style with generous toppings and a sturdy crust built to travel well. Not a pizza-only destination, but a useful hybrid stop in Glassell Park.
Must-Try Dishes:
Pepperoni with hot honey, Sicilian-style square, Meatball pizza
What Makes it Special: Deli-meets-pizza hang with a strong drinks-and-slices pairing vibe.
