Yes it's a chain but it's new for us SLO folks. Great, pick-your-own-toppings pizzas and good selection of draft beer. Nice outdoor seating area. And it's close to the house.

It's hip, it's cool, it's trendy, great bartenders, awesome cocktail menu, truffle popcorn and pork belly tacos are delish. Grow a beard and put on your ironic graphic tee and sit at sidewalk table here.

Eclectic menu, shared plates and a fantastic location with loads of outdoor seating right by Mission San Luis Obispo. Live music several nights per week. Superb Sunday brunch with a bottomless mimosa option.

Great place to load up for a wine country picnic or enjoy at their bright airy space. Salads and sandos are delish with roast lamb on the menu frequently. Rotisserie chicken is really good too, nice sized birds, enough for leftovers. Desserts are delectable and the specials always surprising and changing. Open for breakfast lunch and early dinner.

This spot is great as the whole place opens up to the street and the menu is full of crowd pleasers. Try the the Tot-chos, nachos made with tater tots! Libertine's own brews are sour, maybe an acquired taste but I really like the Casa de Newton made with pommelos from the owners backyard, it's grapefruity. The best local brews are also on tap if sour is not your thang.

Drinks & Nightlife

Check out the newly located and renovated SLO Brew with live music and a full bar featuring their own locally brewed beers with clever names like Topless Blonde. They have introduced a new food menu, I haven't tried it yet but be bold if you want!

Every friday throughout the summer and early Fall, Wolf hosts live music fridays from 5:30 - 8:30. Delicious German-style varietals and hands down the best place in SLO to catch the sun setting behind all seven peaks. Different food trucks every friday compliment the scene. Not the season for the music? Go and taste anyway!

Emily and Vince will set you up with a kayak or paddle board and you're off to frolic with dolphins, otters, whales, harbor seals and sea lions in an amazing location with calm waters and an historic lighthouse. One of my all time faves, I am a frequent flier here. Follow up with brunch at Fat Cats in the marina.

Local Icon Phyllis Madonna has decorated this famous hotel with her indescribable style. You have to see it to believe it. Christmas season is even more over the top. And there's a boutique for both rhinestone cowgirls and cowboys. Enjoy. Ballroom dancing on weekends too. Don't miss the men's bathroom, most interesting urinal in the world.

Another California mission to check off your list. Interesting because it's an active church and the center of town.
