From day one, she made us feel so confident, cared for, and completely at ease. Maddy (Megan's assistant) was just as incredible -- the two of them together are an absolute dream team. Even when we sadly got rained in, Megan and Maddy went above and beyond to create the most beautiful, graceful indoor setup. We completely forgot about the weather because everything inside was so stunning. The food was incredible, the communication was seamless, and every detail felt next level. On top of that, we had to make some last-minute modifications due to my dad's health, which understandably brought a lot of stress and big emotions. Megan and Maddy handled everything with such grace, compassion, and understanding. The way they supported us during that time is something we will truly never forget. We are beyond grateful for Megan, Maddy, and the entire team at The Crossings. They made our wedding day feel effortless, deeply personal, and unforgettable. We could not recommend them more.

We are still glowing from our wedding day at The Crossings. It was truly one of the most beautiful,…read moreemotional, and joy-filled days of our lives, and so much of that is because of the incredible team -- especially Lauren Lee. From the very first conversation, Lauren made us feel cared for in such a genuine way. She answered every little question with patience and kindness, kept us grounded when we were overwhelmed, and guided us with a warmth that made the entire process feel easy and comforting. On our wedding day, everything flowed so seamlessly that all we had to do was be present and take it all in. The venue was stunning, the food was absolutely incredible, and our guests are still talking about how wonderful everything was. Every member of the staff went above and beyond -- you could feel their heart in the work they did. It made the entire experience feel even more special. We are so grateful we chose The Crossings. It became more than just a venue for us -- it became a part of our story. We've already decided that we'll be coming back every year for our anniversary for dinner or brunch, just to relive a little piece of the magic and say hello to the place that meant so much to us. If you're considering The Crossings for your big day, we truly can't imagine a more loving, thoughtful, and beautiful place to celebrate.

The Green Dragon Tavern in Carlsbad, CA, is a replica named after the historic Green Dragon Tavern…read morein Boston, Massachusetts.The original Boston tavern, which stood in the North End until 1854, was famously known as the "Headquarters of the Revolution." It served as a secret meeting place for Founding Fathers like Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and the Sons of Liberty to plan events such as the Boston Tea Party. That being said the food here is very Boston. Think lobstahhh, clam chowder and new American classics like brussel sprouts and wedge salads. It's a casual place and there is an upstairs for giant parties (30+). Parking is ample and free. The museum is a large room with artifacts and info. It's free and a great place to read and learn something. Located near the outlets/Windmill in Coastal Carlsbad.

The cocktails are always top notch and we've enjoyed just about every meal we had at Green Dragon from the delicious garlic knots with Marinara, the flaky turkey pot pie, the potato crusted cod, and Mac and cheese (with or without protein). We definitely recommend this as a most visit to experience some New England vibes and look forward to the next chance to visit.

The staff was friendly. They also had separate phone booths where you can take meetings. The only downside is that the common areas did not have economic seating.

I know they're set days and the calendar but I like to be excited surprised every time I go so I never know what I'm getting into. There is trivia night which is free. I don't officially play, but I quietly play. They have food vendors coming in. All local usually pizza or cheese or something fun. The staff has changed over a bit over the years. Everybody is so friendly and makes it feel like a neighborhood hang out spot other than the wine that warm feeling is my favorite part about coming here. I imagine I'll be here for years more to come Cheers

Joel is creating an incredibly exciting experience / place that we will be going back to many times in the future. The customer service he and his staff provided was exceptional. The venue itself is total VIBE! He is creating something truly special and I can't wait to go back after his official launch/rebranding. This venue is closing a gap that we have in Carlsbad - a place where locals and visitors can go to and watch great live music, dancing, comedians, and huge variety of entertainment options. Location is perfect (on PCH in Carlsbad) and in the center of activity. We looked at many different places to hold my b-day party - we couldn't have been happier/satisfied with our decision to hold it at Joel's venue. Highly recommend!

The place was VERY busy while I was there but the lines moved fast and they had multiple places you could buy food and drinks which helped. They also have a little market with all types of snacks, food, and drinks that are perfect to enjoy out on the lawn or patio. We were too late to see the farm or animals but we could view them in the distance which was a really cool and unique experience. I cant wait to come back for one of their many events they seem to hold. Quick tips: parking was a disaster, don't assume you will be parking in their lot if you go on a busy night or weekend. They had options nearby though that you could walk from. Also, the margaritas are strong, but in a good way! Don't be fooled by the premixed drink, I had two and was definitely feeling it.

We didn't get a chance to do the farm tour since we were limited on time, so we just grabbed something to eat from the cafe inside the market, got some coffee, and hung out for a bit before heading out. Caramel Rosemary Latte 5/5: Surprisingly good. Savory Toast with Egg 5/5: From farm to fork, this was so good. Ham and Brie Sandwich 4/5: The kids got this. The filling was good, but the bread was a bit hard. Tuna Sandwich 4/5: Same with this one, the sandwich itself was good, but the bread was a bit dense. Overall, it's a great place, the food is great, and I'm looking forward to coming back.

The lobby is small but has kids tables and a few toys to help distract them while you fill out the waiver. Large cubbies are available and can easily fit 4+ shoes, bags, jackets, etc. I love the feeling of cleanliness of the whole place. The large open play area, the various slides and obstacle courses for all ages. The Cafe is a major+ with breakfast items, lunch items, and even adult beverages. You can bring your laptop and somewhat work there if you have to. Only thing missing from making this a 5star in my book, was the staff on the floor seemed blah (no smiles, no hello). Like they had a rough prior night and seemed they needed coffee more than the parents there lol. Definitely a solid 4 star place. Love that you can bring your own slip resistant socks and not forced to buy. But they have socks in stock if your forget and adults can use their own socka. Would come back again since my kids love the ball pit and not many places have a clean open ball pit.
