    Service and food always good I love neighbor restaurants and you cannot find better local.

    Blta with reg fries
    Amanda M.

    First timer for me- boyfriend has been several times but not for close to eight years. We were greeted and sat outside- beautiful day. I had the French 75. He had a spicy bloody. Mine was so good I ordered two. He loved the spicy. We started with fried zucchini- so fresh. Lightly breaded. And comes in spears. Ordered the blta and fried chicken sandwich. I ate half of the blta and took rest home- fresh, crispy and balanced. Fried chicken sandwich was delicious with the pickles and slaw and the bun was yummy. The chicken was generous in proportion and overflowed off the bun. Now- the winner of the meal- blueberry cheesecake. That crust, topped with deliciousness and fresh blueberries. Women's restroom was super clean- which you know is a great sign of the kitchen. Looking forward to my next visit.

    Newcastle Battered Fish 'n Chips  Finished Raw Oysters On The Half Shell & Garlic Sauteed Mussels
    Jack M.

    Came here after fishing and was insanely satisfied. Food was fresh, hot, and delicious. Oysters were pretty good size and extremely silky. The garlic butter mussels are heavenly as a starter too. Really relaxed and laid back, would be a place I come back to often if I was closer

    Burger & fries
    Kelley K.

    Super cute inside & outside. Wait staff was great. It's super busy. Folks really seems to like it here. I didn't really care for the burger, their fries or their fried fish. All the ingredients were fresh & presented well. But my friend & I had to keep putting salt, sauce on our food. No seasoning on our dishes. Fish had a lot of batter. Their oil was frying stuff hot, maybe needs to be changed. I think maybe don't order what we got. Because there was a line waiting for a table. It has a good vibe & again folks were happy to be eating there!

    All right so we came here because we are waiting for an open house to start. We've been here before, and I wasn't a big fan of their stools that they used at the bar. The old stools were beer kegs attached to the ground. If felt like you couldn't get to the bar and sit comfortably. When we return the sound that they actually put stools and that you can move. Smart idea because you could fit more people at the bar. Saw a lot of food coming out. That looked really l delicious. The french fries doesn't look good. The chicken wings came with the side, blue cheese, and the Cobb salad looked really delicious too. Since we already ate, we only were there for a drink or two. We both order the spicy jalapeño margarita. To be honest, it needed less jalapeño. I asked for some watermelon juice and it fixed the drink. The second drink we ordered was a Paloma, which freshly squeezed grapefruit. The drink came out and looked really delicious, but it was like chewing tequila because it wasn't sifted. At the end of the day, the food looks really great, and the price is a very reasonable. They do have an outside seating area where you can enjoy the weather and inside had a lot of tables. I will definitely come back and have lunch or even dinner. The bartender was extremely nice and knowledgeable and could definitely make a drink.

    Wonderful experience. The raw oysters were delicious and served on crushed ice. That night, miyatake oysters were served and I arrived at Happy Hour so the price was affordable. Next I ordered the Dungeness crab roll served on a sour dough roll and it was fantastic. It comes with fries and a Caesar salad. The waitress was kind enough to bring me extra anchovy slices for my Caesars salad.

    Monday Margarita

    First time here. This is a local little gem. There is indoor and outdoor seating available and a full bar. Venue is small but has lots of seating available. Food is good and reasonably priced. Drinks are great. Came here on a Monday and the margaritas are amazing Cheers to the bartender Parking is street parking only.

    Espresso Martini best in town!
    Sylvia N.

    Had the San Franciscan and it was good but I forgot to take a photo. But the Espresso Martini was the bomb! The ambiance and guitar music for a Thursday night was upbeat and pleasant.

    New to the area and decided to try this restaurant with the family! There was no wait when we walked in, we were sat down and serviced very quickly. The interior is very rustic and matched the restaurants name. The food was solid and safe to say we devoured it very quickly. The only draw back is the garlic fries, there was just garlic chopped and thrown into the basket of fries. Definitively will be coming back to try more of the menu!

    Garlic Fries

    The food is fire I enjoyed everything. All the food was made perfect and full of flavor. 9/10 for bar food and they had lots of food options as well. Angela was great and attentive to us. Come here for good bar food and sports, it also has a family vibe to it as well.

    Sangria (on the Sat special menu)

    The food was delicious ! We got there on Saturday right when they opened at noon and service was prompt and intentional. The restaurant is near the end of the town by the bay. Very cute area of Hercules near some cute homes and shops.

    Ask the Community - The Powder Keg Pub

    Do they still do $1 oysters all day on Mondays?

    They are now $1.50 and served on Mondays and Thursday's (so long as the truck shows up)

    What time do they serve Prime Rib on Tuesdays?

    On their menu it says 3 pm

    How's the prime rib?

    IMHO, I think their prime rib is very good without having to pay steak house prices.

    When are their oysters half off?

    I am not sure. Sorry sometimes they have coupons that come in the weekly ads.

    How is parking around here?

    It's all street parking. It's not really that bad although it gets pretty busy sometimes so you might have to walk a few blocks during prime times, especially on the weekends.

    I really enjoy their Egg Bahn-Mi. It's my favorite. I can't get enough of it. I love the sweetness…read moreof the pickled vegetables and the creaminess of the egg combined with the mayo. Every bite is hearty and it's truly a "healthy" packed portion sandwich - they do not skimp on ingredients, it's well worth the price and you will be satisfied after you consume it! I've also recently had their Vietnamese coffee which is well worth the sweetness, caffeine and calories. I have also had smoothies and a vanilla latte from time to time. Customer service is always exceptional (even when it's busy!) and the funnest part is they sell LOTTO tickets at the counter or by the machine. It's clean, there's a good variety of drinks, donuts and sandwiches to order for brekkie to lunch or anytime- it's Great spot. I highly recommend this spot.

But my favorite go to orders are The Vietnamese ice coffee or Thai tea, And the Combo lunch sandwich or the #7 breakfast sandwich. To see how much Michelle has upgraded and transformed the Buisness over the years is inspiring! It's like night and day seeing how it used to look inside compared to now. The remodel and constant upgrades that have been made show that the owner reinvests heavily in the customers experience and that alone deserves a 5 star review. Me and my family will always support this amazing small Buisness.
