High Street Market & Deli

Reviewed By curtyboyfromSLO

Nice Deli type eatery, food takes a bit as it is very busy with all ages of people.The food is worth the wait, go in hungry. They serve all types of sandos both hot and cold and have a selection of salads, chips, large selection of beer and wine. Staff is very friendly and Mommy T will check you out with her bubbly personality.

Street Side Ale House

We offer a relaxed atmosphere with elevated pub food and 12 big screen TV's for all of your favorite games! Amazing food, 25 beers on tap and a full bar with a collection of our famous specialty cocktails!

Reviewed By gregh632

Great place to dive into for a beer and some good American food. The regular beers on tap encompass a decent range of styles, and are augmented by rotating taps to add even more variety. Watch out for the “tulip” pours on stronger ales, which give you a smaller volume for the money. Happy Hour features $2 off draft beers and appetizers; we love the sliders (pulled pork or beef with blue cheese and grilled onions) for a tasty snack. And make sure you try the onion rings -the best!

Splash Cafe ~ Artisan Bakery is located in San Luis Obispo, CA. In 2005, we opened this second location in San Luis Obispo and expanded to include an artisan bakery too! The bakery features artisan breads, pastries & desserts baked fresh daily. Each item

The queue outside the day before told us we had to fit this place in. Excellent choice of pastries - would recommend the almond & raspberry one! My son couldn’t finish his French toast so I sampled it too. Very tasty but filling. Good service and friendly girls.

Reviewed By PaulO987

Have been here several times with friends and family. Worst chicken fried steak ever several months ago. Separated breading with liver flavored meat inside.This trip canned soup, canned mushrooms, small chunks of ? beef was called Stroganoff with Portabellos. Service friendly, well intensioned, but left others with salads lacking enough dressing to cover. In fact one party member had to, speak up as waitress leaving without her order. Drink orders mixed up with wrong items, another waitress searching for who ordered the wine she was carrying.

Make no mistake... this isn't your typical "Mexican" cuisine. This "Barrio" spot is phenomenal. Specials all the time, delicious dishes like pork confit tacos, local free range chicken, the best chilaquiles I've ever had... worth the visit.The staff is very friendly, knowledgable and attentive.

3 weeks prior to International Women's Ride Day 50+/- lunches were requested for our group. The night before our lunch I was told that they would be closed. Luckily a local restaurant served us wonderful food and we had a great time. Will never plan an event here and it is being boycotted by the local women's riding group!

Heading out of Paso Robles to home. Found this place on TA for breakfast a couple miles off the 101. Small and cozy I see why this is popular with the locals.We sat at the bar as it was peak Sunday morning time about 9-10am. I tried the basic breakfast with the local Linguisa. Awesome!Definitely on my map now.

This is a very casual place. The chalkboard menu has a large variety of sandwiches, burgers, wraps, and salads. There is also beer on tap, and possibly wine, as well as a good selection of soft drinks. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. We were there for a very late lunch, or possibly a very early dinner. I had the Southwest Chicken Wrap and my husband had the Italian Sandwich. The food was fresh, well-prepared, and tasty. The servers were pleasant and friendly.

The Range

Reviewed By EdfromTampa

After reading all the fantastic reviews, we found it unspectacular. Salad was very good. Squash bisque was really thin. Ravioli were OK; there was a special consisting of shrimp in risotto, cooked inside a small pumpkin. It was interesting, shrimp were good, but overall effect was only fair. No reservations and no credit cards. Seems to be local favorite , but not sure why.
