We’re back with an awesome local beach spot to round off the rest of summer.

Backyard Kitchen & Tap is located just a few blocks from the sand in Pacific Beach, serving up a great happy hour special throughout the week from 3 p.m.  to  6 p.m., and serving up an excellent brunch service on Saturday from 9 a.m. to  2 p.m. with $6 Mimosas and Bloody Mary specials.

Backyard Kitchen & Tap is known for being the “Best Sports Bar” in town. Having opened in 2015, it’s one of the newer bars located on the Garnet strip that hit the ground running. Usually throughout the weekend, lines begin to form around 9 p.m., so we suggest getting in early!

Backyard Kitchen & Tap is complete with cabanas, indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a pet friendly patio. The ambiance combines the vibe of a perfect beach bar, in conjunction with a chic all-American bar look. Serving up innovative coastal cuisine and craft cocktails, Backyard Kitchen & Tap will definitely cure those cocktail cravings.

The Deal:

Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m: $3 to $5 local drafts, house wines, and well drinks. Also $7 featured craft cocktails.

MUST TRY: $10 pesto chicken flatbread and $6 bacon maple glazed brussels sprouts.

Why we love it:

Blend chic All-American with those relaxing beachy vibes, and you’ll get Backyard Kitchen & Tap. This affordable, yet innovative cuisine will keep your belly and your bank account happy.

This spot always has the perfect signature craft cocktails and local beers to pair with their tasty menu items.

Oh… and don’t forget about their famous Mimosa flights! With football season on the horizon, you won’t want to miss any games going on at Backyard.

Nothing is better than feeling that PB ocean breeze, enjoying an ice cold beer, sharing a decadent flatbread, and watching football!
