Quality/Quantity - Also known as the 19th hole. I got here first for a drink or two while my wife continued to shop. Volver, Tempranillo, Single Vineyard, La Mancha, Spain 2018 - Was able to finish two glasses before my wife came back from shopping, lol. Thai Curry Shrimp Soup, bowl - Better than expected. Good flavors, generous shrimp. Overall a small menu done well. Well, I just looked at the lunch menu. Atmosphere - Good size location. Dress code is resort casual. So dress like a golfer, lol. Indoor and outdoor seating. Bar seating, where you can find me, lol. Open 7 days a week from 7am to midnight. See website. Service - Friendly and welcoming. Relaxing. Price - Reasonably priced for being in Pebble Beach. $51 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1919. 1880 - Pacific Improvement Company; headed by the big four. 1881 - 17 mile drive open. 1897 - 9 hole course. 1901 - Started charging 25¢ to enter the 17 mile drive. 1903 - 18 hole course.

The tap room is very nice! This isn't where it usually is as they are doing construction on the real site, but the view of the course itself is still nice. Our waitress was great and attentive. I didn't want the cheese on my salad and she asked if I wanted to substitute a different cheese, which I hadn't even thought to do! I ordered the beet salad and it was light, yet refreshing. It was the perfect dish for lunchtime.
We had a great time enjoying our lunch with the first hole in view. Normally that part is closed to the public for private events but they are doing construction on the lodge. Our drinks took over 20 minutes which was irritating because we just got waters and 2 cokes. We finally had another waiter help us. The food finally came and it was yummy. We also got the key lime pie which was awesome. Other than the drink drought we had a great time.
This was a great surprise while in Carmel! I shot over to the iconic Pebble Beach Golf Course and had an incredible dinner at the Tap Room, their temporary steak house while the original is being renovated. I started with a fantastic Old Fashion! Then went straight to a nice piece of prime rib with a corn side dish. Paired that with a delicious Pinot Nior. Finished with a Nutty Irishman!!! Beautiful night and fantastic food!
I dined here this last Tuesday, in their new temporary location, while the old location is undergoing renovations. They have set up a pleasant spot along the golf course. It doesn't have the same clubby feel, but it is pleasantly appointed with both indoor and outdoor seating and a sizable bar. It is easy to find with posted signage. My lunch was excellent, as usual. That's refreshing. I enjoyed the prime filet Mignon, which I always order. It melted in my mouth! So delicious! So tender and perfectly cooked medium rare. They didn't have favorite au gratin potatoes on the current menu. So I ordered the potato wedges. These were tasty and huge! As always, great selection of wines by the glass. Service was adequate.
FOOD: 5 SERVICE: 4 AMBIANCE: 5 VALUE: 5 The Tap Room is in the Pebble Beach resort main building. The is an entrance directly from the main courtyard. It is a traditional pub with full sit down meal service. We were lucky enough to grab a table for early dinner during Car Week. The hostess was very kind and seated our table of four very hungry people. The only stipulation was that we can only have the table for 1 hour 45 minutes. We had the Prime Rib (different cuts) and it was delicious and tender. Then we ordered two desserts because I have a weakness for bread pudding and the ladies wanted a sundae. The bread pudding had excellent texture and taste. But the Tap Room Sundae was at a different level! First, it was HUGE, then there were tons of yummy ingredients, and finally the dark chocolate sauce was flavorful and not too sweet. All in all an excellent traditional English style pub.
View and server were outstanding! We came here for a nice prime rib dinner to be told that the online menu wasn't updated regularly. No prime rib or lobster like we had hoped for. Ended up with a cheeseburger and French dip with fries. Wasn't impressed honestly with either. For what we had they'd get 3 out of 5 stars.
My husband and I visited Pebble Beach with friends last Friday (July 25th). One of the best choices we made was to have lunch at The Tap Room. We ordered the salmon dish and asked for a second plate as we were going to share the dish between us. Instead, the chef split the dish for us and two plates were presented at the table each with the accoutrements of the dish. The salmon was tender and perfectly prepared, exquisite in flavor. My husband later ordered a piece of chocolate cake of which he offered to share as well. It was the most delicious, moist and chocolate filled cake we have ever tasted. The wait staff was very accommodating, friendly and efficient. When leaving, we asked the maître d' to give our compliments to the chef. Prices were reasonable and we will definitely return!

Welcome to Pebble Beach. Now that I prefaced this review with that you know you're in for something special. I had the New York Style Reuben. It was possibly the best tasting Reuben I've ever had. There was something different from a typical Reuben. I can't describe what it was but it was AMAZING! Then for dessert I had to have the southern coconut cake. Delicious and huge! What a wonderful lunch! The person that took care of me was Patricia. Delightful, friendly and attentive. Exactly what a professional server should aspire to. I arrived shortly after it opened so there wasn't the typical full restaurant din. But the dining area has the feel of the glory days when Hope and Crosby were hanging out here. If you're making the trip to the St. Peter's Basilica of golf do yourselves a favor and have a meal in the Tap Room. You won't be sorry! read more
We decided to stop by here and grab a bite during the 17 mile drive. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a very nice hostess and she sat us down at a table on the back patio. All the tables were 6 ft apart, and the area were shielded off with clear plastic to block the wind. They have a nice selection of cocktail and beer options. No beer on tap though which is strange since it's a "Tap Room". We ordered 2 Sculpins and the tap room platter to share. The platter had a nice combination of appetizers - potato skins, Buffalo wings, fried shrimp, and fried calamari accompanied with 4 different dipping sauces. The wings and potato skins were delicious! The fried foods, however, were mediocre. The batter didn't really stick, so as I picked up the shrimp, pieces of the batter started to come off. The had a large TV set up on the patio so it would be nice to watch sports here. Overall, food was okay and place was definitely overpriced for what it is. read more

Came here for dinner our first night in pebble beach and had an amazing dinner. I'm a big french onion soup lover and this one was amazing! The crispy onion on top were a delicious touch! The steak is also a must, my husband got the Kobe beef with salt board and side of truffle butter and it was one of the best steaks I have ever had! We had the bourbon pecan bread pudding for dessert and we all loved it as well. Overall everything was amazing and I loved the relaxed/bar vibes here. read more

The Tap Room is hands-down, the best steakhouse in all of Monterey peninsula. The food, the atmosphere, the bar, and the staff are all world class. We always start with a cocktail and a couple of appetizers. Then we move on to their world-class selection of meats and wines. This place NEVER disappoints. Trust me. Also know that everyone thinks that it is impossible to get a reservation here, but it's not true. Many times we will come and put our names in and head to the bar and get a table with in under 20 minutes. Its my wife and I favorite place for dinner. Anytime we have special guests in town we bring them here!! read more
There are many things for tourists to see and do while visiting Monterey. So when you go on that "must see" 17-Mile drive along the scenic California coastline, don't forget to stop at the Pebble Beach Golf course Lodge. There are several exclusive shops, bars, and restaurants. We wanted to mingle with and see what the upper class life was about, even if it was for a few hours. So we made the choice of splurging and taking a break at The Tap Room. It is located inside the hotel known as The Lodge. We were lucky to find a couple of seats at the bar. Our bar tender was nice and attentive as she helped us make choices on what beverages would quench our thirsts after a long drive of exploring. Joe K ordered a Casamigos Tequila shot while I received a specialty cocktail called the "Summer Sparkle". It was sweet, fruity, and hit the spot. It was even pretty to look at with the added flowers and I almost didn't want to spoil it's beauty by drinking this unique creation! The lounge was nice inside and designed as a sports bar with (of course) golf playing on most of the over head TV's. The restaurant is connected nearby, but you can eat in the bar area if you so choose. While I'm sure we would have enjoyed ending our long day here with food and drinks, just the bill of $50.00 for 2 drinks put a strain on our vacation budget! Oh well, as Joe mention's in his review, you can't have a memorable vacation without a few indulgences now and then! read more
While enjoying the 17 - Mile Scenic Drive we stopped at the Tap Room for a snack and a beverage. The setting was everything I expected it to be in at such an iconic location. We sat at the bar so we did not have to wait for a table. The service was impeccable while we were there and items were well priced considering it is at Pebble Beach. They had a great selection of drinks and the bartenders were very well trained on their menu and offered wonderful suggestions based on your tastes. read more
Came here for dinner on our last night at Pebble Beach Resorts. The service and food were outstanding. We shared the prime rib chili. It had good flavor would like more meat than beans next time. My husband got the 10 oz Kobe Black Filet. It comes with a finishing salt board from Big Sur Salt Co. and I got the 8 ox Prime Filet. Both were so tender and melted in your mouth. The finishing salts really set them off. We split the mashed potatoes which were so creamy and delicious. Can't wait to come back next time! read more

Wow! This place was hyped up to us by a friend and it did not disappoint! Such cool swanky vibes upon entering. We ordered the heirloom tomato panzanella salad and the calamari for appetizers, and they were delicious. Best calamari I've had - smooth flavor and soft, not at all chewy. We ordered prime rib and filet mignons and they were seriously outstanding. Sides of mushrooms and green beans were fabulous additions! The bread pudding was ridiculous, and we saw the sundae ordered at the table near us and that looked over the top, as well! Really sweet place to share a meal!!! read more

Ambiance is awesome. We always come here at some point during our stays. Food is above average. Service is great. I've gotten the prime rib twice because I love prime rib in general. I'm not sure I'll get it again. They do other things better. French onion soup - awesome. Kid friendly! Thank you so much! read more
Located in the Lodge of the beautiful Pebble Beach Golf Course. The Tap Room is considered the 19th hole. They were setting up for the ATT golf tournament so the view was not the normal. You typically have a great view of the 18th green. We ordered the appetizer platter that comes with wings, shrimp, potato skins and more! Very good and plentiful. read more

Besides the obvious beauty of our surroundings, it was our bartender Michael that made our lunch experience so worth while. A wonderfully crafted MargaritaS and a nice Blind Pig selection on draft. We decided to share a bowl of the artichoke soup to start. It was creamy with great flavor and served piping hot in a good size bowl. Our lunch consisted of a bowl of the Prime Rib Chili served with toasted corn bread which came was highly recommended by a local regular and of course ordered the Tap Room Burger. Everything was perfect and worth the visit. read more
Staff seemed overworked but they worked hard and helped each other. We ordered the appetizer platter. It was big with a good variety, enough to feed the two of us. For cocktail I ordered the strawberry basil margarita. It was perfect. The view was beautiful but the outdoor seating was quite hot under the sun, even in January. I recommend sitting inside by the window. read more
I've been to the Tap Room (the defacto 19th Hole at Pebble Beach Golf Links), several times. However, that was before I started Yelping. They offer surf and turf, not unlike the fancy steak chains. To start, I had a bowl of the French onion soup. TR has one of the best versions bc it is loaded w/ onions and the broth is a deep brown from being simmered for 12 hours. The croutons and cheese made it all come together with the sweetness of the onions, and saltiness of the cheese: 5 Stars. For my main, I had the kobe filet ($82), while others had the ribeye ($72), and prime rib. For our sides, we had onion string and asparagus. My steak was very good. However, I would have preferred a New York cut that has more fat. The filet doesn't have much fat, and as a result is less flavorful: 4 Stars. Nonetheless, I had a bite of the ribeye and it was excellent. I didn't want a whole one bc it was 22 oz vs my 8 oz filet, but the taste was awesome. It also had minimal inedible fat: 5 Stars. The sides were both very good and sufficient for 4 people to share. The strings were hot & crispy, and the asparagus fresh & crunchy: 4 Stars. As if we didn't have enough to eat, I had the signature 7-layer coconut cake ($13), while my rellies shared 1/2 sundae that comes w/ a chocolate chip cookie ($15). The full version of the latter is a sight to see and comes in an oversized martini glass. My cake was silky smooth and packed w/ coconut in the frosting. Likewise, the sundae was gobbled up. My rellies said they could have eaten the full portion: Both 5 Stars. Regarding the ambiance, its old skool with wood and rolls showing who had played at the numerous U.S. Opens at Pebble Beach. Interestingly enough, the U.S. Open is in 2019, as it was the last time I played Pebble Beach in 2010. BTW, it is Pebble's 100th Anniversary this year: 5+++++ Stars. Likewise, the service from Mark and his team was friendly & attentive. We were constantly being attended to: 5 Stars. I always make it a point to stop by the Tap Room when I'm in the area, even if I don't play Pebble Beach. 17 mile drive ends at the Pebble Beach Lodge where TR is located. In addition, there are separate men's and women's shops to buy your gear. I just love the nostalgia of this iconic place. read more
Let me start by saying the staff is super respectful. I initially went to for a dish I saw on the Monterey magazine. I salivated over a steak and marrow picture. I haven't had bone marrow since my trip to Florence, Italy. Unfortunately the dish I saw was seasonal and well the season was way over. According to my server and I forgot his name but he was just amazing respectful and kind Latino young man. Well then I had to reconsider my selection after the hostess went to check at the Stillwater restaurant. Anyhow, today was not a complete disappointment. I was considering the prime rib French dip vs the sand dabs sandwich. My server suggested French dip with onions and mushrooms. Mmmm hmmmm mmmm I didn't leave anything on the plate. I also ordered 1/2 a plate of beet salad, which was delectable. Best place to eat after hitting 15 landmarks on the 17 mile drive. The restaurant was very pleasant and inviting. Will come again. Hope, next time I get me some marrow. read more

Amazing experience. Kobe filet, Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. So good. Had the prime rib and broccolini another night. Can't wait to go back some day. What an overall experience factoring in the golf round that day. read more
Went here for after dinner drinks and dessert. That part was good - glass of Nutty Irishman (coffee, Baileys, Frangelico) and Chocolate Molten Cake - yes, please! But the service? Not so much. Sat at bar - no bartender. Then she showed up - but went to talk to the other patrons and didn't check on us. She eventually got us taken care of, but we did not feel like much of a priority. read more
pebble beach - sunny spring day does not suck! It was St Patty's so the Tap Room seemed appropriate and it did not disappoint. My initial gripe was no real view of the course but the casual feel at a not casual place was what i was looking for. I chose well 10 hr brisket with homemade bbq sauce and chips. really really good. top it off with a Guinness. ALL GOOD! Enjoy this place and then take a stroll around the 18th hole. One of the most incredible properties in the US. read more

After playing a difficult but amazing round at poppy hills we needed to relax and get some much needed dinner!!! The tap room is located just before the main entrance to pebble beach and offers a wide menu but if I had to categorize it... After golf food!! Chicken wings, potato skins, calamari & artichoke hearts!!! You almost had us just ordering appetizers everything looked so good! We ended up starting g with the artichoke, small but perfect! And the burger was fantastic, they hooked up a perfect lettuce wrap and no added salt! Thank you! My wife's ribs were maybe the highlight - crisp golden outside with a Diablo bbq sauce this dish was spectacular but not selling my burger short this one was a grand slam. The pebble beach manhattan was a spot on perfect Manhattan and so delicious. The meal was delicious and the service even better, but you would expect that at pebble beach.. Don't look any farther after playing a round here... this is your spot, read more
My husband had the wedge salad and the full rack of bbq ribs. It came with crispy shoestring potatoes and cole slaw. I had the roasted beet salad and a bowl of the artichoke soup. The soup was hot and tasty and the beet salad was yummy. I only wish the soup had some chunks of artichoke heart like an artichoke soup I used to get at a restaurant long ago. I had a Bombay sapphire martini and it was perfect! Our service was top notch. We completed our dinner with half of the Tap room sundae. It had two scoops of vanilla ice cream, brûléed bananas, chocolate chip cookie chunks and hot fudge, topped with whipped cream. Need I say more? We will definitely return, next time with the Ang! The outdoor dining was fun. Great atmosphere! Loop read more

Decided to visit The Taproom after a late lunch at Sticks, to try their Southern Coconut Cake. There was an influx of guest. Monday night football was starting and we decided maybe we would stay and have an app. We requested the menu back and Drew our waiter, told us that a 6 o'clock reservation was coming up. We we're basically being asked to move along. We were a bit confused as we already had a table and had no idea that a reservation was required when we walked in. No one advised us that we had a limited time for seating. It was a complete turn off and now ending on a negative note, as there were clearly open tables in addition to bar stools. I've never had such a distasteful experience at any of the Pebble Beach locations in the past. We were quite disappointed and embarrassed that we where treated in such a manner. The table next to us were very nice and must've heard the comment as they had shared that they had to make a reservation in the past and were surprised that we secured a table. I figured it was because it was a Monday evening. If your going to try this place definitely make a reservation so your not treated like a 2nd class citizen. read more

A day of taking pictures along the ocean can certainly make you thirsty so it is only natural that you would stop at the Tap Room at the Lodge and drop fifty bucks on a couple of drinks. I had a shot of Casamigos Tequila with a glass of ice water and Ida had some sweet kind of drink that she loved. The country musician next to us at the bar had one of those sweet drinks too and seemed to enjoy it as well. So what is this really about? It is about being on vacation and being a tourist and doing things you normally would not do like drop fifty bucks on two drinks at the Lodge while meeting and enjoying the company of other wonderful people that would not normally drop fifties bucks on a couple of drinks. We would not have missed it for the world. read more

Probably the best restaurant for good food , good service and lots of loud intoxicated people at the lodge in pebble beach. Food was amazing . I had the prime domonico which was amazing , my friend had the porter house which was great as well . Cooked my medium rare a bit over but the steak was still great. Best old fashion I ever had which was a banana old fashion . Only place on the resort that made it . Perfect drink if you like old fashion or not . I would recommend coming here at least once when you are golfing at pebble . Great people surrounding us. read more

My family was so excited to have dinner at the tap room! We made reservations a month in advance and only had the option of 5pm or 9pm. We chose early and it was dead when we arrived. Hostess was not welcoming but waiter and servers were so kind. Food was good, nothing special but it's more about the atmosphere. I'm glad we went, but won't be back. read more

Casual lively fun place to hangout. Great food and excellent service. Definitely recommend this place when you come to golf or simply just visiting. Make sure you get a reservation. This place can get quite busy. Also with the reservation, mention it to the guard at the 17 mile drive they will waive your entrance fee. read more

We had a phenomenal meal for my husband's birthday! I had the beet salad, prime rib, and Brussels sprouts; my husband had a Caesar salad and the seafood pasta; my MIL had a Caesar and the meatloaf; my FIL had a Caesar, the filet and mushrooms. For dessert, the gave my husband a gluten free strawberry tart and we all shared the bread pudding and a slice of coconut cake. Everything was divine. Marco (our server) told us that we couldn't go wrong with anything on the menu - he was right. read more
