Drove into Bishop Friday night and just wanted a small dinner. Luckily, we found this spot. SERVICE - totally 5 stars in itself! The lady and guy at the bar who helped us were so incredibly friendly and personable. You can just tell they're good people and probably come across interesting people working there. FOOD - YUM! Their simple tomato basil soup and chicken tortilla soup hit the spot and was just what I needed after a long drive. I was about to let my stomach take over and order more food because so much looked really appetizing, buy I knew I couldn't handle it. We will be back though to try out their grilled cheese sandwiches! Dessert was delicious too! Cheesecake STUFFED with a raspberry danish?! What mastermind thought of this??? AND they had huckleberry flavored ice cream that I am a sucker for. AMBIANCE - Quaint spot that basically has 2 rooms to hang out. One at the entrance with the bar and high boys, the other room with just seating that looks good for reserved parties. Since it was Friday night, they had live music, which was nice to have. Really good feel to the place. We loved coming here and will be back! read more

1903 is amazing and Theresa is an amazing chef.‍ Whenever we are in Bishop this is where we stop to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very friendly atmosphere, can't beat the prices![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] highly recommended read more

Super bummed to be leaving this review because the owner, Teresa, is awesome! The staff however definitely needs some work. A very young girl, maybe 13 or 14 brought us water, she was very sweet. After that we watched a young man at the other end of the bar, in a 1903 apron, lint roll his clothes and hands for about 15 minutes, while having a conversation with another man, who we overheard say he worked there, but it was his day off. Another lady came behind the bar area, glanced our way, but never came down to say hello, ask us if we wanted food or drinks or anything. It was not busy at all, 2 tables and 3 people (including us) at the bar top. There was no excuse for the lack of service. All in all, 4 staff members and only 1 acknowledged us within 20 minutes. We can't speak on the food, we lost our patience at the 20 minute mark and walked out. Took our money down the street. We won't be back here anytime soon. read more

Amazing food & service. Best chicken salad sandwich I ever had and the brisket sandwich my husband had was his favorite ever.

We read good reviews about 1903 and decided to have lunch there recently. I noticed it was clean and welcomed by the staff. My husband ordered the Brisket sandwich since it had good reviews He had potato salad as his side. I love grilled cheese sandwich's so I ordered that with a side of potato salad. He loved his sandwich and my grilled cheese was so good. The potato salad was ok, I wouldn't order it again. The service was great, the owner came to our table and asked how everything was. We told her we really liked our sandwiches. We will definitely return. Parking behind restaurant. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cool vibes and friendly staff and owners.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food being delivered around us looked spectacular, especially the dogs!! But we came for the famous brisket on pretzel bread with a bowl of Mac and cheese! The brisket was slow cooked to perfection, hints of brown sugar as the meat melted in my mouth, lettuce tomato rounded it all together. Thanks for having us. read more

4 of us had lunch there on a Saturday at 12:30pm before heading to the airport. Mostly empty. very friendly owner+employees. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice pool table, games for kids and several TV's with cartoons, sports, news on--your choice to watch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My wife and I shared a Grilled brisket sando "Rachael special". It was tasty but could have had more meat-we added a house salad which was a pretty good deal for $5. Adult kids had Guinness brats (server couldn't tell us why it was called "Guinness"-LOL). The huge selection of toppings (up to 6 each) for the Brats made them both smile. Beer selection very good and nice and cold. Prices reasonable and food out pretty quickly. Overall a solid lunch option. read more

Rolled in about 7pm after a drive from LA. Brisket, salad, great beer and LIVE MUSIC! The staff ouldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And they are dog friendly![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely return here next visit. read more

Ran a little late going into town and the coffee spot didn't have enough food, so we headed across the street! Great place, Melissa was the best waitress! She gave you a run down of the menu, helped us choose what we should get. Sourdough is better than the roll! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Music was very upbeat, they had scooby doo playing on the TV as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will come back here! read more

Very disappointing. Food was average quality. The portions were a joke. Tiny hot dogs with cold soggy bread and a pathetically small side for $15. I left starving still and went to carls Jr for burger after. At least have an adult size portion for the main entrée or a actual sides like onion rings fries or potato skin or chicken strips, not a sampler size cup of macaroni or mac and cheese. I'm never going back here and telling everyone I know to avoid this place. read more

We were looking for sandwich shops on our way back from Mammoth. Schat's was closed, and I asked my 11 yo daughter to find us a backup place. She found 1903 Taphouse. It's a small place, and very fun. The staff is kind, helpful, and friendly. The bartender taught my daughter how to properly throw darts. Our waitress was patient while we were contemplating multiple brisket sandwich options. We ultimately went with the original brisket sandwich, and it did not disappoint. Meat was tender, juicy, and savory. The vinegar coleslaw was great and better than the mayo version other places serve. Our server was an older lady and she was kind as well. I'm not sure if this place is family-owned, but they sure treated us like it was. read more

Tasty food and nice staff. My son and I enjoyed the brisket sandwich and played pool. I thought the potato salad had a nice flavor.

Stopped in for a drink while waiting for our room. Good selection of beers on tap. The brisket sandwich was amazing! It came with a side but they gave us two: slaw and potato salad, Both were unique and full of flavor. Great, helpful service that knew the menu well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cool, clean atmosphere![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will be back. read more

Food: INCREDIBLE. Service: WONDERFUL. This pace has only been here for about 3 years, but this will be my go-to from now on. It has some of the best food I have ever had, and it's family-owned; the proprietors are friendly and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was a local family here when we arrived, so it's family friendly even though it's a bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Locals seem to really like it too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Stopped on our way back home from Tahoe. Food was delicious! I had the brisket sandwich, my husband had the chicken salad sandwich with potato salad.

Had a wonderful homestyle meal at 1903 after coming down from the mountain. Delicious craft beer and scrumptious homemade brisket and sides. Many other nice choices too, including a variety of interesting hot dogs. The joyful owner Theresa is a gem as is Myra who both made us feel welcome. Excellent service and great fun! read more

Dropped in for lunch on a Sunday. The food was great. I opted for a brisket sandwich and my wife had a brisket Ruben sandwich. Both were great, had a choice of several sides with the sandwich. The staff was friendly and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had several televisions tuned to the NFL package showing several different games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would definitely drop in at 1903 the next time we pass through Bishop. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute spot with great service![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just a heads-up,,the menu is different from what's shown on Yelp. It's mostly hot dogs now, but they were delicious, so no complaints there. Would definitely come back for a quick, tasty bite! read more

Ok so it isn't really a restaurant it's more like a hangout spot for beer - but we saw that they had lobster lac n cheese in reviews - well they didn't have that, and they have a very small menu - HOWEVER, what came out of the tiny kitchen was made with love and we enjoyed it. The bartender was slow to bring our second pint, but when he did it was with a smile. The woman in the kitchen is a Sweetie - she was happy to talk with us when she brought out the food - sorry, no food pics - we were so hungry when we got there, we just wolfed down our burgers and brats - what a friendly spot read more

Consistently great food and great service, I always go for the brisket and it never disappoints. The prices are always very reasonable, by far the best spot in Bishop for food. read more
