Heading down to SD area? Gotta stop by The Lost Abbey~ You just can’t go wrong with these types of beers - some of the most consistent beers you’ll find. Restrooms were upstairs for some reason, but you’ll find some nice shots of your beer crew on your way down!

This is the best addition to the town square and our favorite spot! The beers are delicious, and they have a great variety of styles for all preferences. As well, their food truck rotation is fabulous! They do a great job of communicating their food truck schedule via their Instagram account. Their staff is friendly, and their space is comfortable. We feel so lucky to have them in our little town square!

I had a meeting in San Elijo and wondered into this spot, which I learned just opened a few days ago. I am not big on craft beer, but the product is solid. I really liked the vibe here. The staff is friendly, the space is not too big, not too small, little patio, lounge are, good crowd. A casual, very nice atmosphere. I think this place will do very well here and I will be back for sure.
