Awesome place and it was our first time as we were here for the long weekend visiting from the Bay Area !! This place had amazing food and most of all best staff - Alexis who was our server and Lea too, were extremely courteous, polite and welcoming!! We felt so much at home as they know what's customer service all about for sure. U guys ROCK !! Love it Thanks read more

Charged us a 15% fee for takeout and didn't tell us!! We had kids under 21 and your not allowed to enter if your under 21. So they said we can do take out and we ordered our food. We then got an email during out 20 minute wait and saw we were charged $9 just for ordering takeout. They didn't once mention this and i'm extremely disappointed. On top of spending $80 for three meals that should have been $60, there were so many hidden fees we were unaware of. I'm very disappointed. They also messed up our order. They didn't give us our steak fries. Our burger that was $30 didn't come with cheese like it was supposed to, the meat was well over done and not medium rare. Our garlic fries that we ordered had literal garlic CHUNKS. I'm so disappointed because we're in mendocino for vacation and for our last meal here to be like this and it wasn't cheap either is so beyond frustrating! read more

Was super busy on a weekday evening, definitely a locals place. Got the fish and chips & the fish was freshly fried and crispy albeit a bit oily but the fries were a bit soggy and didn't have any seasoning on them (had to salt them a decent amount). My boyfriend got the Philly cheesesteak and he did not really enjoy it as it was small and was lacking filling. Our waitress was nice enough, just seemed a bit busy. Classic dive bar interior, very warm vibes read more

Fun place for lunch and their $22 burger was just what I wanted. All American burger was just perfect and nothing fancy but they used good meat, bun and veggies. Liked their skinny truffle oil fries too. read more

We had a lovely afternoon at Patterson's. The vibe here was super local, the service was friendly and the selection of food and beer did not disappoint. We were visiting town and dropped in on a Tuesday afternoon. Our bartender Monica was wonderful and the other patrons seated at the bar all seemed to know her and each other. Great banter, stories and recommendations from the regulars. Delicious and fresh food from the kitchen. Cold and refreshing local draft beers from our bartender. We loved the community atmosphere and we will definitely be coming back. read more

I would rate this a 2.5 We went there because of recommendations yet it was a disappointment. Once we got seated, it took 30 mins to speak to a server and then took an another hour to get food. The drink selection was good and food was ok, but disappointing on wait time and quality of food for price. read more

This is a nice, intimate spot. All the tables are small for a nice conversation and a good meal. There are also spots at the bar to hang and watch a game. My hamburger was well seasoned and very tasty. It was also big with a hefty serving of fries that I couldn't finish it all in one meal. read more

Patterson's Pub - Hamburger - American Near Me - Mendocino, California

Pretty mediocre food. Expensive. We had good service though. I'd find a different place but not a lot of choices, so it's OK for a beer and a burger, but stick to pub foods. My salad was really weird. read more

Delicious pub food. During my last visit, we ordered fried pickles, coconut shrimp, haddock fish and chips, and clams and mussels in white wine sauce. It was all delicious. I don't usually order coconut shrimp, but I had a terrible version at another restaurant and wanted to get that out of my mind. These were just as good as the best ones I've had in Hawaii. The haddock fish and chips were delicious - there was a choice between cod or haddock and I wanted to change it up. And the special clams and mussels were swimming in a delicious broth that we dipped everything in. I've been here several times and somehow always surprised how good it is. read more

Patterson's Pub was THE FIND of our 4 day Mendocino County getaway!!! So good that after one visit we went there again the next day and if we had another day would have gone again! First, they are well located in the heart of Mendocino in a charming building that looks like it was picked up and moved straight from Ireland. Erin go bragh! Inside there is ample nice bar seating as well as several comfy tables and outside there is a huge heated, decorated tent with lots more tables and a stage. Inside feels exactly like an Irish Pub and the rows of taps were amazing. If I could I would give the very experienced servers 10 Stars! Fast, friendly, chatty and on top of everything - great at anticipating our wanting refills, more napkins, etc. And in truth everyone there is a server as they jump in to help when the server is busy. THE FOOD, OH MY! Both visits we had the Clam Chowder which was the best I've had in years. So thick my spoon stood up in it! First visit I had the Rueben that had at least 3 inches of tasty corned beef along with great fries (you can get fries in a staggering array of preparations) and super pickle slices. Sweetie had one of the daily specials - Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and veggies - outstanding. Second trip I had the Fish and Chips (I substituted superb onion rings for the chips) . The fish was a large, thick fish filet that had been cut in half, battered and fried. Best fish I've in a long time. Great batter that stays on the fish too! Onion rings were sweet and perfect! Sweetie had the Patty Melt and Sweet Potato fries which she loved! If we had gone back a third time I would have ordered the Patty Melt as it was that good! If Patterson's was 4 hours closer I would be there every week and work my way through the entire menu (and the taps)! It's that good! Trust me - when in the area you gotta go there. PRO TIP: go early in your trip as you're gonna-wanna go back! read more

We had 5 of us, seated right away. One of the specials was a lobster sandwich, three of us got those and were very happy with them. I had the lunch special cheeseburger. Great also. Patio area was clean and warm near the heater. read more

This place is the best! I've been here three times now, and I've ordered the same dish all three times and I normally never do that. I travel about once a month to Fort Bragg in Mendocino area for work and usually it's the only thing open at night. With great food, awesome drinks and the best employee, Liz, how could I not come back? I ordered for the first time the medium rare beef nachos that was recommended by Liz and it was spot on. I got a few different beers to go with it and it was perfect! They also had plenty of games on television if that's your thing and lots of interesting and fun people coming in and out. I'll be headed back to that area next month and I'm sure I will pop in there and maybe I'll try something different next time but who knows? Highly recommend this gem! read more

I first met my boyfriend over coffee and tostadas on Cinco de Mayo. To celebrate our 1 year anniversary, we ordered Mexican food. He had an amazing cod taco while I ordered the pork chili verde. We had calamari for an appetizer and moscow mules for drinks. The pub itself is unique and kitschy. We decided to sit outside where the heated lamps kept us both reasonably warm. The tent covering protected us from the light rain. Service is friendly and lightning fast with the food. Our servers checked on us frequently so we couldn't complain. Definitely would visit again read more

Nice cozy place when you don't want anything fancy just solid pub food, good people and a fun time. Busy even on a Thursday night in the off-season. Really enjoyed their homemade chowder and housemaid mixed berry cobbler. Fries were clearly right out of the fryer. Olympics on the TV. Seemed to be full of regulars and locals, perfect! read more

Very disappointed with our experience at this location that seemed so promising. We arrived and they were full inside and out - so we were added to the waitlist with 1 party ahead of us. Minutes later more and more people showed up and were added to the waitlist as well - normal. Fast-forward 20 minutes and there are other parties being seated that showed up after us. Find out that the hostess never wrote down my name so that resulted in another 15 minute wait. She was extremely unorganized and seated my party of 2 at a large table. Ordered - Steak Salad - very delicious but very pricey - Fettuccine Primavera - tasted awful as if they took some frozen veggies and tossed on a plate I am sure their other items are good and their drinks (which they had many options) are good but massive pass for me. read more

Loved the food, amazing beer selection, staff was friendly and welcoming. We had the specials: Chicken Pot Pie (phenomenal) and the steak empanadas!! Clam Chowder was definitely another favorite. read more

Food was actually really good for bar food, we ordered the cheese fries, clam chowder + fish and chips. All were stellar. 10/10

We stopped by wanting to dine in the garden for dinner on a rainy Friday night because we had our dog with us, but was told that the garden was closed. We ended up opting for takeouts which was extremely fast and easy. There is a menu displayed outside so you can take a look at the food offered. The inside is like any classic pub. We got the Angus beef burger with garlic fries, patty melt with cold slaws and clam chowder. Since it was takeout, they wrapped the tomato, lettuce and onion in wax paper on the side which I think is really nice so the burger will not get soggy. The clam chowder was really nice for a rainy night, too! I think the food was pretty good and a solid choice if you're looking for some beer and burger. read more

I never have high expectations for classic American diners when it comes to flavor. But I do know I'll always get a hearty meal with very friendly and quick service--as I did in this pub. What I can't quite understand, though, is why even in a place like Mendocino they can't manage to source good vegetables from the market. I know they're out there--I came across a pile of wonderfully fragrant local tomatoes when I stopped by the Harvest Market. So I really don't get why, in most American restaurants--including this one--the vegetables end up tasting bland and plastic. read more

We went here on Thanksgiving day. The service was just fine and was thankful they were open on Thanksgiving yet the food was lackluster. They didn't have many vegan options. We ordered the veggie spring rolls. These were probably the worst veggie spring rolls we ever had. I doubt they were freshly made. I opted for a vegan Impossible Burger with side of sweet potato fries that was okay. I am not really into Impossible Burgers. My girlfriend got the Impossible vegan sausage with a side salad. It was okay she said. I wish they had other vegan options. We weren't a big fan of coming here and was expensive as the bill was a whopping $76. read more

In Mendocino if you don't have reservations be prepared to wait awhile. Luckily at this pub, the wait wasn't too bad and we were seated in the back patio. Good pub food and friendly service with fire pits. Can't go wrong here. read more

Oh my gosh!! I love this place! Great beer line up and amazing food. The waitress was classic pub waitress super nice! I believe we shared a Reuben with some type of Cajun skinny fries, both excellent! Definitely swing by this pub if you are on the 1 through Mendocino. read more

Good food and good service. Broad menu. Very accommodating to special requests. Good vibe.

Really enjoyed my visit to Patterson's Pub. On a weekend trip to Mendocino, we came here on a Saturday night and could tell right away how popular it was. Place was packed, but it was recommended by a friend so we were determined to eat here. Sat at the bar and enjoyed one of their specials which was 2 crab cakes over a Caesar salad. So good!!! My partner ordered the steak salad and loved that as well. Staff was incredibly friendly and made the experience that much better. This seems to be an iconic local spot and I'm thankful we were able to bask in all its glory. Great vibes all around. Give it a shot next time you're in town - you won't regret it! read more

Good hours. We dropped in on Thursday night after getting in, got the fried pickle, Cajun fries and black and bleu salad with thousand island sauce on the side. The Cajun fries were under seasoned but the sauce was good. Fried pickle was OK. Black and bleu salad was solid. Also got their root beer and a beer. Both are good. For dessert got the berry cobbler, cute presentation but it was mostly jam, disappointing. Service was quick. Looks like a lot of locals come here. read more

A fun and cozy environment of a Pub, with very friendly staff. I've been here twice now, and it's become a staple for everytime I visit the Mendocino area. The food is always solid, got a smoked pork sandwich in ciabatta this time. Previously I had gotten the fish and chips, but this sandwich was definitely better than the fish and chips. The staff is very friendly, this time I had the pleasure of having Liz take our order and help me out. She's a gem and was super friendly and kind to me. Thanks for your friendly and welcoming service Liz. If you're in the area, definitely come by to check here out! read more

Definitely recommend! Service is exceptionally friendly! 21 and over only. We were greeted at the door with a very friendly hostess. Bar seating was all that was available to be seated immediately. We do not drink alcohol, but were happy to be seated at the bar. It's not a rowdy bar or too loud. Julie, our waitress, provided exceptional service! She got us hooked up with some delicious mocktails. Clam chowder is the BEST chowder you will find anywhere on the coast. We also ordered the quesadilla and coconut fried shrimp. A very large menu! 5/5 stars! read more

Regrettably, our recent experience at Patterson's was very frustrating. My mother and I stopped by on a cool, somewhat rainy autumn day for a mid-afternoon meal. Since we were between lunch and dinner, we hoped we might be able to be seated fairly quickly. Unfortunately, it was a 30 minute outdoor wait. On their building, there was a sign indicating that they only serve customers 21 and over. No problem; I'm in my mid-thirties. However, once we were inside at our table, ready to place our order, the seating hostess let me know that she would need to see my ID. I explained that I wouldn't be drinking. She insisted again that she would need to see it, at which point we also mentioned that my mother would not be drinking. The hostess then told us that ID is necessary simply to sit in the restaurant. (!) I was somewhat dumbfounded by this. I've certainly never been required to produce identification merely to eat a meal. At that point, I let her know that, unfortunately, my ID was an hour away in our hotel. She didn't seem to understand this, as she kept repeating saying that I would need to get it from the car, that either a driver's license or a passport would work, etc. Finally, the hostess informed us that we were going to have to vacate the table. We asked about the possibility of sitting outdoors on their patio, away from the bar area, but seating on the patio also required ID. I was quite irritated and disappointed, but we went ahead and placed a to-go order, which we waited for, once again, for 25 minutes outdoors. My mother and I decided to drive down to the waterfront so that we could at least enjoy the meal with a pretty view from our car. Once we arrived and opened up the bag, though, we discovered that they had not included silverware, condiments, etc. This was the last straw for me. While the food itself was fine, it was certainly not worth the hassle. I wish our experience had been better. My recommendation to Patterson's would be to make it extremely clear that all customers will be required to provide identification, regardless of whether or not they will be drinking. I don't think their current policy is at all intuitive, and it would have saved us a lot of time and frustration had we been aware. read more

Since we travel and stay in Ft Bragg twice a year we always try to have lunch at Pattersons pub in Mendocino. Monica has been taking care of us for years and the food and beverage is stellar. However, since our most recent visit was the day after the national election and where we live in placer county we are mostly red if you feel me. Seems Mendocino isn't simpatico with the new president elect. More than a few patrons glared at my hat choice with one particular old maid burning a hole in my back as I was leaving the bar. Best advice, know your audience before rocking a Trump/Vance MAGA hat in Kamala territory. read more

Great bar, drinks and people. Food was decent but not excellent. Fun place to hang out for a drink or three.
