Box Car Taphouse

Excellent food at very good prices. Looking forward to coming back and bringing friends. Please don’t raise your prices – it’s caused us to stop dining at many a restaurant in Portola!

This place is awesome, the food, the service, the Alchemy wine, the Brewing Lair beer, and the convenient location ❤️ It's very clean and dog friendly on the patio ❤️

Fantastic burger and fries. Bright open indoor seating and loads of outdoors eating and yard games. Burger toppings are DIY and fresh.

Friendly new place in old Portola. Great tap beer selection, reasonably priced and tasty rotating menu. Big outdoor patio for warm days or cozy inside. Family friendly.

They've been open long enough that they should have a rhythm going... Wen't during a work lunch break (only have an hour) they brought out all our food one by one as they cooked it one by one instead of just bringing it all together. They forgot side of fries and then told us they make it which still wasn't even done by the time we left and looked at us like we were stupid. The cooks just stared at us the entire time instead of focusing on cooking our food in a timely manner. The Gyro was amazing, I'll give them that, there's nowhere else local to get anything remotely close to Mediterranean food. The fries were still frozen, the burger had like a teaspoon of sauce and no seasoning on it. Everything cost separate, $30 for lunch is insane. It's not that hard to include fries with a burger o
