    Very friendly and beer-passionate bartenders make this place a fun visit. Good crowd for a Monday night. Baseball on TV, interesting local beer selection, clean and modern feel in the little downtown of Merced.

    I am overtly happy to see a place like this in Merced providing a much needed dose of delicious and well-made quaffables. It's like an oasis of magnificent nectar in a desert of Natural Ice. Small (it may get crowded) but with decent seating, excellent selection of craft beer (both bottle & tap) and knowledgeable folks behind the bar with friendly attitudes. If I lived in Merced, I'd be here every week. 4-pour flights for $10; if you're not sure which beers to try, try them all!

    Great bartenders. Friendly. Cozy bar. Would definitely recommend. Bartenders offered great suggestions.

    This public house is smaller than I am used to, but even though they have a small drink menu; the 12-20 beers that they do stock are quality brews. They do a great job providing a variety of beers from breweries of all sizes, many of which are local to California. Most of the menu consists of common everyday beers from Coronado, Heretic, and Flying Dog, but if you stop in at the right time, you can catch some tasty seasonal selections like 21st Amendment's Hell or High Watermelon. Prices are comparable to any other bar in the area, a 12oz beer will cost between $4-$6 each with specialty items being priced accordingly.

    hmm it was either 7 or 10$ for a flight ...

    Too bad this place opened after I graduated, I would have hung out here more often. Air conditioned place, but it is quite small, and fills easily in the afternoon. They have a good assortment of drinks with decent pricing. The only thing I wished they had was some snacks and food, but otherwise its a nice place to chill and catch up with friends. BTW only place in Merced (for now) that has serves the largest variety of craftbrews so we can't be too picky with what we have haha

    Tanisha was very welcoming on my first visit, able to suggest where to eat (since I'm not from the area) to what to drink. Good selection on Tap, but I was looking for more local brew. Maybe another day, since taps are rotating.

    Oohh, this place rocks! Great little spot for college students. Good atmosphere, very friendly staff and patrons.

    Great craft beers served by great people! What more could you ask for. They have one of the largest varieties of craft beers, IPA's, ciders and a nice selection if wine too boot. Staff is knowledgeable and not pretentious. My favorite: Dogfishhead Burton Baton. Be careful, at 11% 2 of these can sneak up on you!

Asked the waiter if I can pay extra to select a different salad on the menu and they said No. Pasta is great, salad is average, the beet salad plate was cold, seems like it came straight from the fridge. Pizza took very long to make, it came towards the end of our meal. The waiter gave us some free fries and soups to make up the long wait time. Overall it's not a bad experience, I would go back for pasta dishes only.

We started off with the steamed mussels which were excellent - large meaty mussels in a roasted tomato garlic broth. The broth was so good we both spooned it down long after the mussels were gone. This was followed by the beet salad which was the classic pairing of bitter arugula with the sweet beets. The crab and lobster ravioli as our main course didn't disappoint - lots of sweet crab and lobster meat stuffed into each ravioli, all draped with a creamy rich sauce. We topped off our meal with another classic - crunchy cannoli fingers. Mmm, good! Our friendly server gave us excellent wine service and food suggestions. The back dining room was cheerfully noisy and gave off the vibe of eating at your Italian Grandmother's house. We had a great time, highly recommended.
