The old Good Guys tavern was sold and morphed into this new place. Let's just say I miss Good Guys greatly. When they first opened under the new name, the place had super bright lighting. Really it was weird, like medical operating room brightness...They ended up shading the lights and painted the walls dark?? Better, appropriate ambience. It's a lot more modern and cleaner than ever though. Well, so they call it a taphouse now. Which means they are a craft beer bar. With less than average beer selection on tap for a taphouse in my opinion. They do have a large can selection that pushes them up a star. Many one-off beers and smoothie styles which can be difficult to obtain. There's only one person working the bar, which has always been a friendly female. Which is appropriate for the 90% male clientele. You gotta figure this works everywhere. Take it from someone who knows, as I worked as a bartender and barback for many years. Serving beer is one thing, but it's tough getting a male bartending job in general. The selection could be better. However, the problem I have with this place is the exorbitant prices of the draft beers. This is considering the area, which is on Broadway in Lemon Grove. I mean we are talking 9 and 10$ beers here. For example, Frank the Dank- a double IPA is 10$ here. And I know where I can get these for $5 a pint... and I'm not telling where either! Actually if you do really read my reviews, this information will be eventually leaked out if it already hasn't been.. But yeah I'm sorry, but this why you are empty 80% of the time. Who can afford this in this permanently depressed area/neighborhood? The working men of course, who aren't ready to go home and deal with that nagging significant other.. read more

I've been to Lemon City Taphouse three times now and it's just fine. The selection is the best part, by far. There is definitely something for everyone, including non-alcoholic options. My biggest complaint would be the prices. I paid $10 for a pint of Two Towns cider, and $15 for a 19oz can of Boochcraft. The staff is always very friendly, and happy to help with beverage selection. With this being the only real craft beer option in Lemon Grove, it's a good stop, it's just going to cost you a little more. read more

Ive lived here in Lemon Grove for the past 3 years and I finally had the chance to stop by-- lets just say they are now in my local favorites list ! Lemon City Taphouse is located in a small strip mall that has a shared parking lot . If the lot is full, you won't have a problem finding street parking nearby ! The inside is pretty cozy, yet still welcoming . There are about 10-12 seats at the bar itself and a few tables with chairs to sit if you don't want to be at the bar . We were greeted right away by one of the bartenders, Sally who was soo awesome ! I love that they have a huge variety of beers/sezltzers to choose from, along with some specials on draft . While we were there we got a few draft beers that were fresh and I also ordered a cocktail with a tamarind candy ! All were 10/10-- Sally's got you with that heavy pour lol-- thanks girl . Overall, this is a great bar to have a quick drink ! I wouldn't recommend it for like a date night, but it's fun to just sit at the bar and watch the game or to catch up with a friend . I would totally stop by again soon (: Oh ! I forgot to mention they sometimes have food trucks or food pop-ups out front-- when I was there, it was Papis Teppanyaki (really tasty hibachi). read more

Lovely people and a great selection. If you're into a wide variety of beers and a nice atmosphere this is the place.

If you are feeling tapped out after work, the Lemon City Taphouse is a great local place to relax and enjoy some libations. Not only is the service great, but they have a lot of great options. They offer beer taps from local breweries and beyond. They offer a huge melee if beers and ciders of the artisan can variety. The taphouse has a bar and inside tables, not to mention pool. They have plenty of television for sporting events etc. There is also a back patio were they BBQ and have food vendors from time to time. Irene, the super sweet bar keep, suggested I try their house Michelada, which believe it or not, it was a first for me. It was not only tall, but delicious and quite refreshing on a warm Friday afternoon. I had them use a Modelo Lager for mine. It had great flavor and the touch of soy sauce was quite nice. Well done Irene! Great Lemon Grove addition. read more
