| - This place continues to surprise me each time I visit. Went for a date night with the husband tonight m, and it was our first non-brunch visit. First, I should mention that the weekend brunch special alone is worth a visit ($10 per person for food and a beer or huge mimosa is a deal, but this good is amazing and the list of local brews is always rotating and sure to offer something for any beer drinker). Second, the atmosphere is very relaxed chic with bicycle theme throughout.
So, tonight we went for drinks and dinner. We missed happy hour, but we're pretty hungry so we shared the pretzel board (salty pretzels rolls, warm cheese dip, toasted corn nuts, baby pickles, dry salami, and mustard). Definitely a good snack for two people. I tried the white sangria (a nice, rather sweet pineapple-based drink), and my husband enjoyed his white chocolate ale (smelled and tasted so good). He usually orders the coffee stout (from Papago), but they were out of stock.
For dinner, we had The Pilgrim (turkey sandwich) and the veggie burger--both with fries. The turkey was good, but the veggie burger was absolutely the best veggie burger I have ever eaten. It had a spicy sweet sauce with avocado and chopped tomatoes, a soft potato-like bun, and they even charred/flame-kissed the burger giving it a wonderful flavor and texture. So, so good!! Fries were simple but memorable and a perfect combo with the sandwiches. Good enough to order alone as a snack too. I think I'll try the steak and fries starter next time if I can manage to order anything other than the veggie burger.
