Parkside Taphouse: Reviews & Ratings
First time here but the food was great, the outside patio has lots of outdoor games (corn hole, a peg board game etc) and the service was friendly and attentive. Granted it was lunch and not busy. Can’t wait to go back. Entrance is around the corner on 3rd btw.
Food is excellent. Granddaughter loved the mac n cheese. Lots of vegetarian options. Very nice outdoor seating. It's a bit pricy but everything is freshly made with quality ingredients.
A beautiful and yummy salad. Just wished the salmon patty was a tad bit bigger. But all in all, it was enough for the salad. So that was nice! Cocktails were good. It was quiet when we first arrived but then parties showed up heard a lot of laughing, which was nice! Thank you for the date, babe!
5 stars!! The bartenders were both approachable. They made me feel like a valued person. The crab artichoke dip was stunning. They did not size me up. They gave me better service and food than expected. Other restaurant owners who think they’re entitled should take direction from a young, but professional crew like this one. Not all young people give great service, or even older for that matter. I really appreciate how I was treated. Definitely not always the case. Also the other customers were friendly and the way the bar was set up made sense. The people working there didn’t treat it like a chore.
The service was good and our server was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The entrees are all pretty solid, and I'll tell ya, they have the very best pretzels in the area. When the weather permits, it's fun to hang out at their outside area as well.
Wonderful place. Relaxed atmosphere with great food and good drinks, well stocked bar. The best thing is they are pet friendly and even have a doggy menu! Will absolutely be coming back here!
This is one of our go to spots when we make it to Chico to visit our daughter who attends CSUC. We love the atmosphere, service, appetizers/food, and the Bloody Marys with the pickled green beans are amazing. We've visited for lunch and dinner and every time we have a great time. Our favorite apps are the brussel sprouts and the artichoke crab dip, and the chips are scrumptious. The Parkside Paloma with tequila and the Pearfect Spice were delicious. Thank you Parkside Taphouse!
Awesome location in the heart of downtown. Kitchen wise, everything that I've eaten here has been great. Prices reflect the quality of the menu. The atmosphere is relaxed, but expect it to be crowded. Everytime I've dropped in it has been packed, especially the huge patio!
