The tap room is long and narrow with a bar occupying one side wall and tables along the other side by windows looking out onto the patio. The heated, vine covered courtyard is akin to a beer garden but with white table cloths and iron gates looking out onto the street. There were 18 taps operating when I last visited, split evenly between regional craft brews and imports. I enjoyed a Rogue Dead Guy. The only evidence of US mega brews was a bottle of PBR sitting on the central tap dispenser. The menu is a few steps up from pub fare with some nice starters, salads, pastas and upscale entrees. Parking is on the street and can be difficult most evenings. There are some public lots a few blocks away and the CalTrain station is nearby.
