The Alley - Pubs Near Me - Mariposa, California

The Alley is the kind of place you almost walk past -- an unsuspecting little taproom that casually happens to serve some of the best pizza in Mariposa. It's got that low-key vibe where you're not sure what to expect, and then bam -- out comes a pizza that could easily headline a food tour. The crust is crisp, the toppings are generous, and the flavor says, "Surprise, we're not just here for the beer." It's the kind of pie you start casually and end up guarding from your friends like a raccoon protecting its last slice. But let's talk girl dinner -- the salmon, bread, and olive platter is an elegant little power move. It's light, flavorful, and just bougie enough to make you feel like you're having dinner in a hidden wine bar -- without actually having to say the words "artisanal anything." The Alley is a hidden gem with serious flavor chops. Great drinks, standout food, and a menu that swings from comfort to classy without breaking a sweat. Come for the drinks, stay for the pizza, and let the salmon platter judge no one. read more

Great place to grab a couple beers after hiking in Yosemite. The place closes a little bit early, 10 PM, but if you get there in time, they've had a good beer selection and some snacks to boot. read more

The pizza is actually so good! I kinda wasn't expecting how good it would be. Both the beers we tried were great. It can get pretty lively in here between locals and tourists. Luckily there is a really nice outdoor patio that overlooks the creek. read more

This place is awesome! Small bar, large beer selection! Wine too! We tried several of the appetizers/snacks and really enjoyed them. They have pizza too, it should not be missed. Locally owned, run and staffed! If you are in Mariposa, this is a must visit!! read more

One of my favorite places in Mariposa! The crew is always eager to help you find something you might enjoy. They regularly change out the beers on tap so your always getting fresh and new flavors. Huge assortment of wines and ciders along with non-alcoholic drinks. Lots of items to nibble on while hanging out with friends or meeting new ones. One of my favorites is the pretzels with beer cheese or any of of the artesian pizzas. The Artesian Pizzas also change daily; often topped with items I'd never think to have on my pizza but it works! read more

I stopped in after work with my son and ordered the Canadian Bacon, Salami Pizza. Holy shit I was not expecting how good this pizza was! It smelled so good.. garlic, quality thin crust and the most amazing melty cheese. If you are in Mariposa and looking for some where to eat, a glass of wine, and great atmosphere you WANT to go to The Alley! I love how this place is decorated too. 5 stars here! read more

We got the Artesian Pizza to-go which was one of two kinds they had. It was about 17 bucks. The restaurant is really dimly lit with a small sign for the name, so you may miss it at night. We arrived in Mariposa after a long day of driving and they were still open at like 10pm! There was only one worker, so the service was pretty slow. The pizza was not fresh at all. The crust was hard like a rock. The pizza tasted weird, not like spoiled, but the combinations of the ingredients were really different than what you're probably used to. The pizza can feed maybe 1-2 adults. read more

I really liked this place. It's a really cute wine and beer bar with a limited food menu and an assortment of board and card games for customer use. Friendly service. Indoors were only a few tables and 4 window seats on each side of the door, so social distancing could be a challenge unless one commandeers window seats as we did. The business has a patio but I did not visit it. Pizza was good if not a bit too cheesy; we got the last one (salami and jalapeños) at 8 pm on a Saturday. Would definitely return. read more

So happy to have found this gem in mariposa. We almost didn't get to try it since they don't open til 4pm. We arrived shortly after opening and sat at the bar. The ladies in this place were super friendly and the beers were even better. The abita was great and the uinta. They also had a good red abbey. Good beer, service and atmosphere. This is where the locals go for sure.. there were many that came in while we sat. Wish we would've tried the appetizers but maybe next time. If you are in the mariposa area or after a day in Yosemite this is a MUST STOP! read more

Flora and Aaron Savage really did put their heart, soul and elbow grease into developing one of the coolest places around for tasty libations and yummy conversation... and it shows. The decor is eclectic and amazing - almost all items are tastefully and creatively repurposed, from the barnwood walls, to the pew bench, to the antique mail room slots, to the Nesbits wine rack, to the corner wall of window shutter art - they have created a very comfortable environment to gather with old friends and new. If you don't know anyone walking in the door, you will find new friends in meeting Flora and Aaron, as they are friendly, warm and open. I haven't yet tried their beers, but the wine selection is outstanding. I discovered a new local favorite during my last visit. Highly recommend the next time you are heading to the foothills to visit Yosemite, fly at the new zipline park, raft the Merced River or just hang out in Mariposa - one of the coolest little Gold Rush towns around. read more

Of all the bars located in Mariposa this one definitely stands out as one of the most unique bars I have ever visited. They have quite an interesting selection of drafts and wines which are quite adventurous for an establishment that serves alcohol and Mariposa. They also carry your typical Coors lights and Budweiser's. This place really stands out once you go inside and take a look at the amazing decorations the Edison lights are unique and stunning feature as it is the pulley system that carries the fan when you look up. Their outdoor patio/seating area is also amazing. Once you take in the whole establishment you realize is a lot bigger than what it looks. I showed up with a couple friends and I wasn't particularly looking for anything to drink but their ACE cider actually caught my attention So I took a sample of it and I must say I was in love! The bartenders will also take you on a wonderful journey of beer tasting as my friend had experienced when he went there with me. This place is definitely classy and it is by far my favorite place to have a Relaxing drink with my buddies. They don't serve any Jack Daniels here but they have more than enough beer and wine selections to satisfy. I congratulate the owners and I wish them well And may they be here a long time! read more

Love this place when in town for Pizza. Their artisan pizza's are the best! You never know what two are available, but the two I've had the Marguerite Pizza and combo were great! Loaded and with a thin crust. Also you cant go wrong with their wine and beer selection and their other appetizers are good too. Have to hit here every-time we pass thru. read more

This place is NOT a hidden gem - only hides from those who do not dare to explore. My husband and I were looking for simple food and maybe drinks, and we came across this place just because we parked right in front of it. What a gem! We ended up meeting a couple who was happy to share their insights about Yosemite, and had simple yet tasty flatbread pizzas and beer. The night we came they happened to have one of my fav sours from The Bruery's Terreux (from Anaheim, CA). This place is small and seems to be visited mostly by locals. We'd be super happy to come back! Loved the ambiance! Visit and enjoy. Funny thing - we were trying to order takeout, one place we called did not answer after ringing for 7 minutes. Thank YOU for not answering the phone! Yes! Blessed accidents happen ALL THE TIME! read more

Come in for a drink and a pretzel. I'd recommend the beer list over the wine list, but they have something for everyone. When I first visited years ago the owner was in and the service and ambiance reflected that personal care. Anywhere in Mariposa, your service will be just so, not that they are rude, but no one seems to understand that their job is sales. They will answer your wine questions with "that one is popular". Just don't expect a red carpet, that's all. But do not forget the pretzel. You will dream of having it again. read more

We held our wedding welcome mixer at The Alley this past summer. The Alley was such a great venue for our casual event of about 50 people. The owner, Keith, worked with us before the event and had his staff continuously bring out finger foods, beer & wine to our guests. Everyone was impressed with the quality of the food and the great selection of local beers. Beyond having excellent food & drink, the ambiance was great, and the staff was very accommodating. They let us play our own music through their speakers and were very attentive throughout the night. We were worried about finding an affordable place where we could host that many people, but The Alley prices are so reasonable, that our guests had a really great time and we didn't break the bank. We spent most of our time in the back patio, but the interior was also really charming. Awesome food, drink, and service - would definitely recommend! read more

The Alley was a great find during a recent trip to Mariposa and Yosemite. The young couple that runs the place were very friendly and provided great service. They serve both craft beers and great wines by the glass. If your not sure what to order they can make recommendations, or better yet order the "samplers" variety! Will definitely be back! read more

Absolutely had a great time at this place. My family and I were in town for Thanksgiving and it was a nice little surprise to come across this place. I love the atmosphere- very stylish with that kind of recycled wood type look. The wine was delicious and the service was phenomenal and we all probably drank a little too much lol. Would definitely recommend checking this place out if you're visiting mariposa! read more

My girlfriend and I stopped here on the way back to San Francisco from Yosemite and loved the Alley. Even though it was a short stop and we didn't order food we certainly had a great experience. The space itself was beautifully decorated and the service was incredibly friendly. We spoke with the one of the owners, Flora, and she told us that she and her husband designed and crafted the entire space (and luckily remained married). This wound up being a real bright spot in a town that seemed mostly populated by tourist stops and souvenir shops. Other than the decor and the friendly service, they had a great beer garden and beer selection for a small restaurant. read more
