    Cool spot in Carlsbad! Great staff and ambience! Got pizza from a vendor outside, they have a calendar for the different vendors each day

    Cool brewery with solid beer! Interior of the brewery is awesome and sets the mood to enjoy some beer in what feels like the outdoors. They have a decent amount of options for all kinds of beer drinkers.

    Kudos to whoever designed the space. While finding parking is difficult, upon walking in you're transported to a great atmosphere to enjoy a few drinks and conversation. TV screens to enjoy whatever is going on and there's a couple of nearby food options that will deliver. Beer was solid. No complaints. There were a couple of dogs in the patio and I'll definitely return with mine soon.

    This is hands down the best brewery I've ever been to! The service is outstanding, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful in recommending some of the most delicious beers I've ever tried. The atmosphere is open, welcoming, and perfect for everyone -- even your four-legged friends! 10/10 -- I'll definitely be back!

    Burgeon is a cool brewery! After waking into Burgeon, I immediately loved the ambiance and vibe. There's a big tree near the bar with string lights hanging that creates an outdoorsy feel. All of the tables and some of their benches are made of big pieces of wood. The brewery has a lot of indoor seating and feels spacious. It was clean inside and felt inviting. The guy working the bar greeted us and was very friendly. We tried a handful of Burgeon's beers and liked them all. The beers were smooth and easy to drink. The hazy IPAs were not too bitter or hoppy. Burgeon has food trucks for their food option. We did not eat, but there was a pizza food truck out front to order from. Burgeon is a great option for beer lovers!

    Beers to go

    I've been at this location once and liked it. "Forestry " decor, a lot of air. The main draw - quality of beers. I love Hazy IPA line of beers.

    I have been to their outpost in Escondido but finally got a chance to check out the home base in Carlsbad. Atmosphere: 9 - Relaxed, natural wood seating and countertops. Outdoor area near food truck and spacious interior. Thursday evening...75% full. Service: 10 - Quick recommendations on what to try. I like it when the bartenders have opinions and are not afraid to tell you what they think is best. Beer: 10 - I'm a hazy IPA guy and this place has several great ones. I didn't want the ones that I had before even though I know they are great. I tried a couple tasters and my favorite was the Hazy - Universal Secret. Best beer I have had in weeks. Other: The beers are so good here that I would rate them in the top 5 breweries in the USA. I travel 3 weeks a month and have the opportunity to sample quite a variety of breweries. I forget to review but on average I get to try at least 2 new breweries per week. The beer here is quite awesome!

    Rib tips, brisket, cheese balls, slaw. Absolutely delicious.

    Awesome beer and outstanding BBQ. This place is legit. Love their atmosphere and ambiance. Love their decor. Staff is really friendly. Good people. My favorite brews are their Treevana and their sour. Both are really good. BBQ was awesome. Smoky and flavorful. Paired very well with the beer. I'll definitely come back here.

    Loved this wall installation

    Soooo fun! Would not have known this was tucked way down Bitton of the street in an industrial center off Palomar Airport Sooo many beers to choose from with I think 2 new ones dropping each week Their juicy IPA is my favorite- hubby enjits the Anniversary Beer- subliminal Sync These guys also CoLab with lots of brewing Companies and their Anniversary party was so much fun! Tried a lot of different brews and learned about local spots and new trends in the industry

    It's the 1st day of Summer and I wanted to spend a lot of time outdoors soaking up the sunshine…read more What a perrrfect time to finally go to the Tower39 Rooftop Lounge! I wanted to go there for the longest especially for Happy Hour. When I got up there, I was amazed at the ocean views and pleasantly surprised it wasn't crowded during this beauuutiful late afternoon. I picked my spot to sit then stood in line while looking over the front-n-back menu. Everything sounded good but I wanted something fresssh and summery. The friendly staff was very knowledgeable about the menu and helpful in my decision to keep it Summer related. Not too long afterwards, my order came out. Looove the quick service! Both female bartenders were slaying it as soon as the line grew. It was niiice to see the world cup on the t.v. screen. I enjoyed watching it while I ate my yummy food and watched the magical sunset. More people showed up closer to the golden hour. Overall, I had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this coastal hot spot to the Yelp Community!!

They recently updated their seating as well, to super comfortable seats. The food was really good as well! We had the shareable fondue, the prosciutto flatbread, the quesadilla, and one of their salads, and the food was delicious! Overall recommend this spot, but really wish they would add service or bring back the QR codes to order from the table. Plus you can't beat that gorgeous view of the beach and palm trees.

    We had been aimlessly looking around for a spot that was open since our flight got in late at night…read more& we were starving. Places like the restaurant below were closing when their times were supposed to be open still. Kitty and Nate were awesome with their customer service! Super nice and accommodating, even when the food was a little too spicy for my mom. There were things like the drinks they made differently to accommodate for what we were looking for. Love the ambiance and the food was great. Whoever commented on having a midlife crisis, karmas going to kick your ass when you are that age. At least the owner has something going for themselves & has been really creative in the whole experience.

    I've been here twice in the past week for happy hour and it's sooo good every time…read more The happy hour is Mon thru Thursday every week from 3-5 pm. I don't quite remember the prices but I think everything priced was fair/good value seeing as their food and cocktails are amazing and very high quality. I love the chicken gochujang sandwich. It is sweet, tangy, spicy, and the perfect portion. It is part of their happy hour but also their regular menu so it's great that I can enjoy at a discount. The happy hour was house cocktails only, but they do them really well. Their original cocktails are fun, delicious, and one of a kind. I tried a few and you can't go wrong. Lastly, the bartenders and servers are exceptional. They are kind and fun and definitely help to make the experience and environment a lot more enjoyable. I really enjoy this place and look forward to coming many more times and bringing more friends and family in to enjoy as well!

    Gonzo Ramen is literally the best restaurant to ever exist. Their atmosphere offers unique decor,…read morenot to mention they have the best food, and the employees there are really nice. I always enjoy dining there with my family because they have good food that we can all enjoy together. Every year for my birthday I go to Gonzo! I simply love eating at Gonzo. First of all, I can't get over how scrumptious their food is, it is so tasty and packed with flavor. If you stand in line to order, as soon as you sit down you will have already been served. I don't know how Gonzo prepares their meals so fast, yet so delicious. Also the fact that they cook their food fresh daily is crazy to me. I've been to many ramen restaurants and no one compares to Gonzo's. My go to on the menu is the tonkotsu ramen with gyoza and chicken karaage. Gonzo also offers a very unique atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in Japan. They have waving cats, a big banana neon light, posters and a floating ball on top of the water station. The ball is so cool but I am still puzzled on how it works. Their decor can not be matched. They also have a TV that is always playing Anime. You can also sit inside or outside so if you feel like sitting inside, sit inside but if you want to sit outside, sit outside. Gonzo also does not offer reservations so there is always a place to sit. If there is nowhere to sit just get It to go, truly there is no other ramen stop better than Gonzo. Lastly, the people there are super nice, and always check up on you, they are very polite, and they always say your welcome. While you wait, you can enjoy your appetizers until your main meal arrives. Also if you ask them for a free ticket to their store, they will give you one, each member of the family gets one. You can go next door and trade them in for tokens, these tokens can be used to play claw machines so you can win stuff. But what tops that off is that all of the employees are welcoming and happy. Gonzo Ramen is the best restaurant in the world. They offer good food, an amazing atmosphere and the people there are super nice not to mention the location is very conveniently located near my house. I seriously think about Gonzo all the time. Gonzo is that go to place for me and my family.

One is a nice, sit-down restaurant. One is a coffee house. The third is the Pocket Pool and Bar. We found the service to be good, but we really didn't enjoy the drinks. The space was rather empty in the middle of a Sunday afternoon. We received coupons good for two welcome beverages at The Pocket when checking in at the resort. When we arrived at The Pocket after checking in but while waiting for our room to be ready, we found ourselves to be the only guests there. No reservations were needed. The clouds were out but it would soon be nice and sunny. We sat down and each ordered a zero proof cocktail. The ask was for something fruity and sweet. We ordered a variation of the Feeling Peachy, consisting of peach puree, citrus, mint, and bubbles. We did choose to give the bartender the freedom to make drinks that would be fruity and sweet as none of the drinks on the menu sounded like what we were feeling for. The bartender brought us drinks that we tried and decided we wouldn't have ordered if we didn't have vouchers for free drinks. As such, we acknowledged they weren't for us, though if we would have paid for them, we would have been disappointed. As such, I'd encourage anyone ordering drinks at The Pocket to stick with drinks on the menu. Speaking of the menu, the menu offers beach bites like smashed guacamole, craklin' buffalo wings, elote fries, quesadilla, sunset ceviche, and dirty nachos. The main event dishes include blackened Baja fish tacos, the wagyu double smash, millionaire's BLT, coastal Cali burrito, and Pacific poke. The balanced-ish menu items include pocket Caesar, the wedge, paradise bowl, and the Santorini. Treat Yourself dishes include cookie sando, assorted fresh fruit, and seasonal sorbet. Beverages include cocktails, wine, drafts, cans, zero proof. The Pocket is a surf-inspired bar with a view. There are televisions to watch sports games, and with the bar being part indoors and part outdoors, you can catch the nice weather or escape from it depending on if it is sunny or rainy. You can make a reservation on OpenTable. The bar hours are open daily from 11 AM to 7 PM. The kitchen is open Monday through Thursday from 12 noon to 6 PM, Friday and Saturday from 12 noon to 7:30 PM, and Sunday from 12 noon to 6 PM. Should we visit the Alila Maria Beach Resort Encinitas again, we may give The Pocket a try again but more for the atmosphere, good service, and perhaps some bites instead of drinks.
