They offer American and English beers, too, but come on, this is a German beer bar. When in Rome, er, Berlin, drink what the natives drink. I was greatly impressed by the six or seven non-alcoholic selections. We tried a non-alcoholic Belgian that was very nice. Apparently, you can sometimes get German food from a window around the side of the bar but the cook was AWOL during our visit, which was honestly a major disappointment. Like many people, I need some kind of food or snack to keep me going while I am imbibing. Nevertheless, the beers and atmosphere here were excellent. 21 and up only, although dogs of all ages are welcome.

They have a huge space super close to petco park. So if you're coming to watch the game on their multiple TVs or leaving the game early for a cheaper drink, they got you. Variety of food from pizzas, wings, starters, and salads. Also got a full bar. It's very easy to get comfortable here. We've seen groups of all sizes and some families with kids. It's a spot that is more chill than your usual sports bar, and still has great service and quality.

We chose a spot near the bar and close to a large garage-door opening; the breeze coming through was fantastic while we sat on some very comfortable chairs. This place is family-friendly. The family next to us had several kids, and they all looked like they were having a great time. They also had a Cubs game on, which was awesome to keep me entertained--it's always nice to watch a team other than the home team on TV. For food, we ordered the crispy potatoes, which had a great crunch on the outside and a super soft inside that complemented the toppings perfectly. We also got an Italian sandwich that came with juicy banana peppers--I made sure to get one with every single bite. The sandwich had the right meat-to-bread ratio for me, though my wife felt there was a bit too much bread and ended up removing half of it before finishing. We wrapped up the meal with a sausage and pepperoni pizza, which I enjoyed a lot. The pepperoni was juicy (not burnt or rubbery), the sausage was full of flavor, and the crust came out just how I like it: thin, crispy, and easily foldable so you can hold it with one hand and bite right in. To drink, my wife had a JuneShine and I had a non-alcoholic Athletic IPA, which tasted just like a real IPA. Overall, the place was great because of the atmosphere. We always like to give credit where it's due: Jason, our server, noticed we hadn't been attended to right away when we sat down, immediately came over, and took care of us with high energy and excellent customer service. Great job, Jason! We'll definitely be back soon. Have you been to Far Corner? Do you like pizza? Let us know in the comments!

Probably the only negative is they don't not have a/c and it was 10' hotter in the restaurant. There were two ladies working hard and very friendly. The layout is a bit strange. Order at the counter next to the bar, which is not the side with the front door. If you want canned of bottled beers/beverages, you take what you want out of the fridges. There's a small bar with the Padre game on and several taps. If it wasn't so hot inside, this would be a mellow spot to catch the game. I ordered the carne asada quesadilla. It was loaded with fresh meat and pico. My friend got Al pastor tacos. They looked good and my friend said they tasted good too. Our other friend got chips and gauc. The gauc was smooth but had good flavor.

From the spooky, dark, skulls old school ambiance and decor, to the experience of not ordering from a menu, everything about it made it feel unique and curated making it feel like a true individualized experience. As mentioned, there are no menus. We sat at the bar, the bartender makes casual conversation with you regarding the types of drinks you enjoy. He curated something for both my husband and I based on what we shared we enjoyed. The drinks were delicious. The entry was very cool! It felt as if you were entering a hidden spot - which you do. When you enter the restaurant, you let the hostess know you're there for the Noble Experience. She let us know to head to the wall with the kegs (which is actually a door). You enter and there's a small waiting area where you're greeted by another hostess. This place is a 20/10. We can't wait to return on our next visit to SD.
